Yes, under most setups you have both write and read permissions on such a
temp dir.
Of course, the filepermissions of the files you want to access (via
move_uploaded)file()) IN the tempdir is what really matters.
Maybe your hostingcompany made PHP store files as the PHP-user with no
readrights, which sounds very strange to me.
You can check this yourself by using php_info(), and see what you can find
out about the tempdirectory. If you have shellaccess you can see the
directorypermissions yourself.

Good it works now. Bad they didn't give you a short description on what they
changed. That way it is hard to learn what went wrong.
