I have been with them for 2 years but recently they had "an upgrade of
servers" which was really a take over by another company, and nothing
has gone right since.

I've been trying to. I have both of the sites on another server, but I
need the DNS changed and also control of the domains. Until they
reply, I am held prisoner.
It doesn't help that the whois is showing the old address and I am in
another country.

Things were fine until the takeover. Getting them to reply to
*anything* is a miricle.
