Exetel customer help forum

Received a blackmail email scam attempt this week: Email subject: Security Alert. You account has been hacked. Password must be need changed. Email body: Hello! As you may have noticed, I sent you an email from your account. This means that I have full access to your account: On moment of hack your ...

I need to get some clarification here which I am unable to find answers from the Newsletter or the Plans page.

I'm getting "connection refused" errors now after I presume the email issues were finally resolved. I can access my webmail without a problem, however. Does that mean I am blocked as well?

When I previously had major issues, it appe...
