of your potentially soon to be new host.

There are cheaper and better hosts out there.
1) Several Brazilian Teams support FIRST Brazil website. The payment method should be a national invoice (not credit card and etc). If we move to an web hosting in another country, we'll have to pay for it.

2) We pay $10 monthly for 400mb 4gb traffic. This month our bandwith went to 3gb. I can't upload anymore videos or big files. Space has finished.

We're stuck in brazilian servers and we cannot move for now.

...So I think we'll keep using this web host for now, it's the best we've got.
