Does anybody have a copy of the O2hoster contract?  I was talking to our
MD at work today and he said the chances of getting any money back would
depend on exactly what the terms of the contract were when we signed up
for the year's hosting.

It's not a huge amount of money, but it's the principle as much as
anything else.  A company shouldn't be allowed to just shut up shop and
walk away from contracts without some sort of come back.  It's sort of
like stopping the mortgage and thinking I should still be allowed to
keep the house.
