When they get an abuse mail for your server, all they do is forward it to you. You then have 24 hours to fill out a form detailing what you did to stop whatever caused the abuse message.

If you ignore the 24 hour limit, it will just escalate the case to a support person, who then decides what to do. There is no automatic shutdown, especially not for multiple days.

This is not true. I've had automatic shutdown without warning. Had to send them some documentation/evidence of solving the issue before they would put me back online on a public IP address.

I had a server shut down after it started scanning other servers from other hosters for vulnerabilities. Taking it offline immediately is what I would expect any sane hoster to do.

Not being available for resolution is a different thing.
