This is a slightly older post but I can tell you from experience if you or someone on your network was/is critical of them they will block you.

I questioned their site a while ago as to how their monitoring works since they showed us being offline when we weren't and they didn't want to reveal how or where they monitor from.

We asked to be removed from their site but instead I believe we stayed listed as down & found ourselves unable to visit the site.

Perhaps this happened to you.

I got permanently banned from there for clicking a link that said DO NOT CLICK , I didn't know they was serious when they said it will permanently ban you from the site.

Host-tracker says "Received responses: 18 Ok 40 Fail". So, there must be something wrong on webhostingstuff's end.

They try to block everyone.

I'm confused... Why have a website if your blocking people?

It is loading fine on my end, they have restricted firewall setup on their server. Contact with them and tell them about your IP, it sometime happen with them...

We had pretty much the same thing - we asked to have a brand which we acquired removed as it had all the wrong contact information on it and we had no access. They completely ignored every request and instead they just blocked our office IP address and all of the IP blocks on our ASN!

I subsequently accessed their site from my home connection to find that they had adjusted the uptime to read 0%... they really are vindictive and I have no idea why they couldn't simply be helpful!

Question? Im a fairly new hosting company... how do I get listed on this site?

The site seems to be not working on my end. I'm not sure why. Maybe they've limited some areas that can view their site, but that would be the worst case scenario.
