It’s not normal for any provider
To be fair, even if he was only paying $5 a month, if there was a tiny chance that the compromise was done by an employee, any reasonable provider would be all over it.
He had no proof aside from "I have found no proof therefore hosting provider must've did it".
Then in his arrogance he thought he's expert enough to "clean" the compromised server even when every security guy will tell you to take the data out and burn it to the ground if there is even a suspicion of compromise.
Edit: Also it sounds like he didn't immediately shut down the server after the first hack? That is completely insane. I understand you want to investigate but you are leaving yourself wide open leaving the system running. It's been compromised. End of story.
