The hoster has disabled the server

This morning the hoster disconnected the server without warning. I will not begin to describe how they lied to me on the phone, how I waited for hours for answers to my letters. Five hours after the outage, I finally received a letter with the following content:
Hello!

Your server (1414) has been disabled for flood.

- Sincerely, Sinev Alexander.
Specialist round the clock technical support data center

Dear colleagues, I would like to get advice on the following issue.


After To restore the connection, they need to fax a) an explanatory note describing the reasons for which the “flood” was made and b) a letter of guarantee with the promise of “not doing this again” - I quote the words of technical support. I sent a letter of guarantee and told the support that I could not write an explanatory note, because Without connecting to the server, it is impossible to establish the cause and the very fact of “flooding”.

I was promised tomorrow to consider my letter of guarantee and a request to restore the server connection to the Internet. Provided that tomorrow at ten in the morning they consider and immediately turn on the server, the downtime will be 24 hours.

The question to the community is how ethical it was for the hoster to shut down the server based on the data in the above quoted letter?
