Sure, if the data is lost there isn't much that can be done to go back and fix it. However, the company response appears very dismissive/flippant which sends a bad message.

The tone any company hosting customer data should take in the event of data loss is along the lines of 'regretfully... we screwed up... unfortunately... steps we are taking to ensure this doesn't happen again...' i.e. the company should either be humble and apologetic or they should expect to lose a large chunk of their customers after something like this. This isn't merely to say the right thing, it is to demonstrate that they acknowledge this was their issue and something they need to fix going forward rather than a 'sucks to be you' customer issue. This is basic customer relations / crisis management stuff.

So you're saying you want the bullshit? Look Gandi doesn't have it. What more do you want from them? They lost it, they're not gonna bullshit about it.
