I clearly describe my relationship with this company Level2 and specially with Steen Hof and his guys.
We did started to work together a few years ago , doing a complicated software for them which depended on 3rd parties. After struggeling for months , to get the necessary things from their side regardings the 3rd parties ( some apis) we did what we were supposed to do at that time and everybody was happy . Then , suddenly , due so much lack of communication and very less answers in our colaboration they stoped communicating with us .
After around 1 year, this guy called Steen Hof and his serious company ,came back to me and he did intent to continue the work.
As i'm in this business for more than 10 years without any single complains and we do work with big companies such as vw,bmw, citrix, etc , i said him ok , give me some time to refresh my mind where we are and fairly to let you know where we are with the payments, since no communication were made for about 1 year so based on the contract i was in the position not even to answer to this very late email .
All good, i proposed to come up with a small payment so i can focus again resources and finalize the latest things even if he did approve all the work at that moment but due different circumstances he disappeared. Not a single cent extra, nothing to pay from his side for this delay ...all for the benefits of a good colaboration and willignes to finish his project.
He answered prompt that he can't put anymore money into but after we finish he will pay. I could do that having in mind that he was the one that disappeared, not me..so i said i can't work anymore like that. I can give you all the sources and you can continue/finish with another company and we don't want any money extra for anything just to close everything fairly.
Second week after this, i saw a report written up here about me, that i scam and i got his money and all this s*** , which is not really the truth. I was very dissapointed and asked him nicely to delete that as i never do it in my life this type of scam and i'm a very very serious guy with lots of customers very satisfied , most of the time i lose on my part just to not affect the reputation and have all parties happy .... but as we all know, such guys will call you just stupid.
You know what, after some time i told him that i'm wiling to give half money back to delete this report, just to not affect my business ... but no, he wanted all or even more so i said f*** off.
From my point of view, i don't recommend anyone to work for long term with this company guy as they re not willing to cooperate nicely with you and every time you propose something nice / a fair deal to close out , they want more and more things.
Level2 company , Steen Hof - not recommended!

Level2 pounces on business URLs when companies miss a payment on their domain registration and then hold the URLs for ransom at outrageous fees (~$5K per URL). This is predatory cyber-squatting that clearly violates the Anticybersquatting Consumer Protection Act. This happened to our company. As a result of staff turnover, we missed the deadline to renew our company URL, which is the same at our incorporated name, which we have been using for over 15 years. Level2 bought our URL as soon as it became available and made it available for purchase for $4950.00.
