View 2 Replies View RelatedI paid for a server with GeekRack.net 8 days ago, and have seen no sign of the server being setup.
Now I know they are just a Burst.net reseller, they don't own or order the hardware or even have physical access to the servers, they simply get 25% off Burst.net and just resell their servers. That said you'd expect at least some sort of notification on when the server would be ready by, especially by now, right?
Ok here is the scenario.
Day 1 - Ordered server, agreed price and spec and installation date. Quoted 3 days setup time.
Day 3 - I was told need an extra day to setup this I said is fine.
Day 4 - server is setup but is missing 2 drives and only has half the ram I ordered. I email them to tell them this.
Day 6 - They finally respond to my email and tell me they have fixed the missing drives and ram they also offer me 10 days free as compensation. The problem is now the server is completely down, doesnt even respond to ping.
Day 7 - I email them to tell them server down and I now want a refund, I offer to accept a partial refund to compensate them for manual work involved in setting up server. (412 euros paid 350 euros refund), this offer made in goodwill so resolve quickly. 2nd proposal sent later for only 300 euro refund.
Day 9 (today) - No reply whatsoever and server still offline I raise a paypal dispute and within 1 hour I get a email telling me they agree to my 2nd proposal (only 300 euro refund) however they want me to cancel paypal dispute first.
I have read the paypal dispute policy and I see if I were to cancel the dispute and they then not refund me I have nothing since I cannot reopen the dispute, whilst if he were to refund me and I was to try and scam him he would have a strong case as paypal have the refund logged so he has far less to worry about. So I am not cancelling the dispute and even offered to set it to 300 euros but he says if I dont cancel the dispute I get no refund.
Just want to know peoples thoughts on this, consider I never have had the server I ordered working, its currently completely down and he was ignoring me until I raised the dispute which doesnt put his trustworthyness very high.
The provider is worldstream.nl

There are several methods of offering network path redundancy. The basic decision for me has come down to:
Do it at Layer 2
Do it at Layer 3
At the moment we have layer 2 redundancy to each server. 2NICs on the server up with one having the IPs for apache/mysql/etc. each nic going into a seperate switch and the switches connected together, with 2 routers running VRRP to handle the gateway.
Everything is Vlaned.
So basicaly the switch redundancy is done by spanning tree and the IP redundancy is done with a process on the router/server to move the IP to the other router/server NIC if there is an issue.
I am thinking about going with 2 fully seperate networks. in differant subnets. where each router would have a gateway. the routers would talk to each other and they would speak OSPF or ISIS with the servers. This way I would move hosting onto loopback IPs on the servers and those loopback IPs would be advertised to the both routers through seperate networks.
Again everything would be Vlanned.
This has the advantage of getting rid of spanning tree which has caused issues from time to time. It would keep redundancy up and we could standardize on the routing daemon ran on the servers allowing all of the various OSs we run to have the same basic config for network redundancy. Where now each OS tends to have its own solution. This would make life easier from a config and troubleshooting point of view.
After some experimenting with Linux VPS setups, I'm eager to explore windows VPS software.
Two questions I guess, first off, what is the cheapest method of offering multiple VPS accounts on a windows server? Are there any free or build in Microsoft methods?
Second, what is the easiest way of doing so? (Simple setup, as hands off as possible)
I realize the cheapest may not be the easiest and vice versa. I'm downloading Parrallels Virtuozzo trial right now, but would like to learn what else is out there.
I am planning to build my own site, but the problem is that I still don't have a domain and a hosting site..
I wanted to buy one but they all requested for a credit card number.. I'm still a student now and unfortunately I have no credit card..
Does anyone know any other way of paying those hosting sites and registering a domain w/o using credit card or something..
Or maybe since i'm still new, should I go for free hosting then? but my site uses MySql for database, is there a free hosting site that lets you use a database?
i can write a long story about this guys that i actually don't know how they can start selling webhosting ,i think there should be a requirement of brain.
i m not telling much but its about 6 days our server is turned off and our website is down ,still no answer from them
[url]
its better for them to sell watermelon rather than webhosting and dedicated servers (IMO)
because they don't know how its heavy for a big website to be down
our site want use Payment Portal for pay reasons.
can anyone list the most used Payment Portal?
Do you advice me to select paying annually with softlayer?
Or it’s a bad idea?
I will be using the server for web hosting.
I signed up with them for the 10mbps offer a 199 dollar server. The invoice was due on 30 and I thought they charged thru paypal subscription service.
On 2nd, after three days, they suspended the server.
Now my problem is taht they neversent a single email that an invoiceis due. I always get invoice email and I pay. Can't remember everything ... So Limestone guy here's how how this thing works
1. You send an invoice due email.
2. Then you send a warning that the server will be discontinued in 24 hours.
3. Then you suspend the server.
This is how planet does, this how softlayer does it and this is everyone does, nothing special in this.
Very quick question please post if neither of the above. If you were to order hosting online which would you use: paypal or google checkout?
Any others please post below?

if I buy a reseller account off xyz.com, how does that work? I understand I have to buy a vps or dedicated, but how do I collect payment?
and is it possible to open a reseller account without having your own "front", I.E. when customers sign up they would be doing it through xyz.com (and not my own hosting company/template) but the payment would still go to me.
about vps company support the payment with purevanilla.com
View 3 Replies View RelatedWe work with a hosting provider in Sweden. We rent a dedicated server there. The traffic was uneven, from time to time. Sometimes there was no traffic, and sometimes it reached 90Mbit. We bought a configuration with 10,000Gb. Now they sent us the traffic invoice. That has 18Tb if to count according to the 95% system. And in total we used about 12Tb. We didn’t know they counted according to 95%, that wasn’t mentioned in the agreement, it said only about 400sek per TB excluding VAT***. That’s why we thought that we had to pay exactly for the used traffic because if to count according to the 95% system, which means it’s counted per a channel, and the agreement informed only about the Tbs.
View 8 Replies View RelatedI had two servers with wiresix, for the most part support was OK (not the best, but not really bad) and Ryan was responsive to AIM and emails. At one point I no longer needed my dedicated server with them as I had moved everything over to my Colo server. I submitted a ticket to cancel the server (i gave 45 days) and request confirmation from them which I never got. AS the time got closer for that server to go away I started getting longer and longer response times to IM and support. Because of this I felt the need to cancel my colo box and get it shipped to a DC by me as not to be left stranded by a host that didnt care.
I submitted another cancellation request (about 6 weeks in advanced) and again got no response. About this time the dedicated server was supposed to go offline. I got invoiced and charged for it so I opened another ticket asking for a refund for a server that had been canceled. No responses, on anything. Now it comes time for the colo box to be taken offline...
I requested it be taken offline and shipped out a little bit earlier then the actual date. I provided shipping information. I also noted they can use the payment that should have been refunded to cover the shipping costs. This was the first of April. I am borrowing a server from a coworker for my customer who is supposed to be on the colo server. No big deal right, borrow a server for a few days and then move the customer back to the new server...Right?
Wrong. As of this date Ryan still has all my servers online, in the rack and will not even respond to my tickets or AIM. I cant even get in touch with him (or the rest of wiresix) to allow a friend of mine to goto the datacenter and pick up the server. The refund? Who knows... At this point I am convinced Ryan is angered that I am leaving and is hold my colocated server and my payment hostage. I have no other explanation.
I have attached an image file (with some information whited out) with the tickets and the last response times intact. Please I urge everyone DO NOT USE WIRESIX. If you do, do not ever cancel or you will never see your hardware.
At this point, I do not think I have any other choice but to contact my lawyer or the Atlanta Police department for the theft of my hardware.
I signed up for 3rd Rock Hosting's smallest plan and pre-paid a year because it was inexpensive and after EpicVPS's server magically deleted everything I had no reason to use a bigger host as my data was gone and my most recent backup was too old to do me much good.
The account got set up immediately, however there were problems such as my bandwidth allocation and number of email accounts and such were half of what they were quoted to be on the webpage. Ok, got a ticket in and got that sorted out no problem.
Then, something happened to 3rd Rocks upstream host and the site was down for two days about two weeks into hosting. They've had this problem before and I knew about it and decided to chance it. Bad decision I guess.
A week ago or so I got an email telling me to change my DNS as they moved to a new server. What? New name servers? Ok. I use my own DNS but updated the A records to the new IP's. This is where the trouble began, once everything resolved I could access my panel but none of my pages load! It just loads a blank screen and even view source doesn't show any of my php pages. I logged into the account via FTP and sure enough my files/data are there.. just nothing loads.
Not having to want to deal with this headache I politely asked my account be canceled and the 30 day refund honored. I was greeted by Mark asking if I changed my nameservers and when I told him I had modified my nameservers to reflect the new IP's he offered me two free months.
I stated that with the trouble I've had in the last 30 days; going past the 30 day trial would give me no 'out' if more trouble occurred. Mark stated he'd give me a refund 'ASAP'. This was Sept 1st. There's been no refund and I've shot off two more questions in the support ticket without answers. My 30 day 'guarantee' ends in just a few more days so I'm trying to get this done before hand of course.
I'm -> <- this close to filing a paypal complaint and escalating it. Being incommunicado with me for 2 days while you scrounge up $20 bucks is baffling.
