View 14 RepliesI noticed recently that HostGator charged me two times, them I found they kept doing that to me ever since last year! I sent them a email. Here's their reply:

I'm so angry
I signed up a new hosting account two days ago. Yesterday, I found my telephone +91.1142316457 had been changed to +1.911142316457 and obviously telephone could not be confirmed. Their chat window vanishes on submit and telephone is not attended - I left voice message. I created support ticket and emailed back.
24 hours after signup I requested order cancellation. Despite reminder every few hours, I am not receiving any response.
I opened a free 1 year hosting account at Jumpline.com through an offer they were running and never used it. While opening the account I had given my credit card details for verification.
Last month I got a mail from them with an Invoice saying that my account would be renewed. I replied back to that mail asking them to cancel my account as I was not using it and not charge my credit card. As I did not get any reply from them, I assumed they must have cancelled my account.
Today I was shocked to see that they had charged me $191.40 inspite of my mail. When I opened a Support ticket I got this reply from them:
Unfortunately I do not see any other Support Tickets submitted by you regarding the cancellation of your account. Jumpline.com sent out a notification via email 30 days prior to the bill date informing you of the upcoming renewal.
If you wish to cancel your service, you must do so prior to your next due date to avoid being charged for additional month(s) of service. A completed cancellation form is required to remove all products you wish to cancel.
You will need to login to your Customer Manager [url] to do this. Once you login to the Customer Manager you will click on the Change Renewal Options link under Product Information.
JUMPLINE.COM does not offer a prorated refund based on the early cancellation of your hosting account. If you are on a multi-month payment interval and wish to cancel a hosting account prior to the end of the term, you will forfeit any money paid for the hosting account. Once money has been received on a hosting account, this account will be considered under contract for the service provided by JUMPLINE.COM for the term of agreement. This policy is in effect for all hosting accounts at JUMPLINE.COM.
The account(s)/product(s) will remain active and continue to be billed unless we receive the completed form.
They could've replied to my mail with this information 1 month ago and I would have done the needful but they did not. Inspite of requesting for a refund, they are not giving me one. This is a clear breach of trust. Should I apply for a chargeback with my credit card company?
I had a Windows 2003 running as a shared server using PHP with Windows SMTP, there seemed to be a script with vulnerability for spammers to use for blasting. Anyway to track which domain and which script does that? Or anyway to configure such that the SMTP maybe install different SMTP that would track this better rather than the default SMTP?

My Advise Avoid like the plauge
01-07-09 01:14 PM
I placed an order for a server
01-08-2009
Server is ready
Orginal Config
DotnetPanel
Windows Web 2008
I had problems from the start
IIS Not starting correctly
Dotnetpanel issues including adding websites.
So I fixed what I could and then employed someone to do the work.
Afterlooking around I found someone who looked proffessional and told me he could do the work.
He got back to me after a few hours and said their were problems with the server OS and DotnetPanel install.
It would take longer to fix but he would try
After A day or so, he sent me and email stating he was unable to get it to work correctly and said the entire OS needed to be reinstalled.
So I contacted LSN and told them about the problems I was having and decided to ditch the Windows 2008 Web server for a more roboust soloution.
I went for the classic Centos and Hypervm soloution.
LSN happy loaded my server with a fresh OS and I proceed to employ my normal guy to install and configure the server
AV went on
firewall went on
Lex went on
Hypervm went on
IP Address Binded to network adapters.
But all the VPS we setup only had the "local lan adapter IP" making them inaccessiable from the outside world.
After somemore looking at the matter I resorted to contact LSN and get them to remove /change the interfaces.
This gave the VPS the external IPS but were still not connectable from the outside world. so far I spent 65$ on the orinal comapny who looked at setting up the web 2008 server additioanl 45$ on a diffrent tech to confirm the fault and been billed for a second money at singlehop.
so I contacted "customer support" and all I wanted was a refund, even if it was parcial. I just wanted a refund. I lost out on to much money and to many hours sitting infront of the computer typing up support contacts.
Please read the transcript below I strongly advise you not to use LSN they are not a helpful company
You are now chatting with ryan
ryan: Hello, thank you for visiting Limestone Networks! How may I assist you today?
ibby@: Hello Ryan, I want to make a complaint.
ryan: Oh no! What appears to be the issue? ....
i just ordered a new server in Limestonenetworks.
I'll post my experience here about they
I ordered the following server:
[url]
If everything goes all right i'll make sure to give they the best Review i can give to a company!
after reading the complete thread about Limestone's TOS and weighing their latest server offering, I took the plunge and just spent $160 on a monthly server.
My email from them is dated today at 6:44 pm.
Let's see how long it takes to get this server in my hands. Nothing special in the order, an extra hd for backup, that is it.
I'm a newbie here but not a newbie to unmanaged servers. If this one goes off without a hitch, I'll move a few sites from a box I currently have a ManageMyBox (no problems with them, at all, just looking for a datacenter closer to home and this seemed like a good deal).
Who is better limestonenetworks or BurstNet
I deal with the company BurstNet But the question now
Is limestonenetworks excellent company?
Is technical support fast?
I want enough information on the company limestonenetworks
I want to deal with them
Topic of discussion
I've got a few servers around many companies, yet never tried them(LSN). To me they are a bit fishy, by how cheap their servers are. Any experience with them(Good/Bad), please share it.
View 11 Replies View RelatedI am very happy go give everyone a review of limestonenetworks.com
Here is My story!
I was in a bunch and needed a VPS server because My other one went down unexpectedly, so i needed a new server in under 5 hours. I looked all over, and came upon one very special company, Limestonenetworks.com. I placed the order, and selected to have HyperVM/OpenVZ installed. The server was setup in 3 Hours! This was the fastest setup time for a dedicated server I have ever seen. When I submit a support ticket, I have a response within 30 mins. This is truly one of the best datacenters ever! Their staff is very helpful! To be honest, I am so pleased with them, I just now ordered a second server from them! Yes, You do pay a bit more, but you definatly get what you pay for, and ill tell you what, this extra 2 cents is worth it all the way!
I would recommend Limestonenetworks.com to ANYONE!

Have you guys checked this out yet?
It is simply amazing!
Quote:
Intel Core2Quad Q9650
Yorkfield
8gb DDR2
1TB SATA2
10TB
100 MBPS
Cores 4 cores
Speed 3.0GHz
Core Name Yorkfield
L1 Cache 256KB
L2 Cache 12MB
HT Speed 1333MHz
All just for $159.99. ($40 off) That is just simply amazing.
I purchased one of those when it was for $179.99 and I am still using it. (Original is $199.99)
These servers are a BEAST!
Just wanted to say that LimeStoneNetworks dominates with the pricing + support and everything else related to Dedicated Server =P
My first ever post on WHT and I am happy its a positive one. These are a few words I have to say in favor of people at LimestoneNetworks.
I ordered a Intel Core2Quad Q6600 dedicated server with them with upgrading most of the resources to the topmost at about 6 AM CST this Friday. They recently included a Fraud Check in their TOS which I was not aware of but only became notified once I had signed up. It involved uploading the CC images and a Govt ID.
Btw: their new control panel Rockware actually Rocks !
I uploaded the docs promptly and since chat was offline I called them up and got connected with a Support rep. He told me that a Sales rep will check on it at 8 AM CST. At 8 AM, one of the sales rep promptly acknowledged the ticket for verification and it had the comments of a 24-hour turnaround, which scared me a little.
Wonder ! Wonder ! Since all my stuff was verifiable and without any issues... I got reply within 20 mins stating my server was being sent for provisioning.
Another wonder ! another 20 mins and my server was showing the server in my Rockware CP as being built. I was pressing F5 like crazy and everytime I saw something new in my CP regarding my server. Which is like the most rapid updates I have seen ever !
Overall, even after the verification delay, I got my server in 4 hours !
Subsequently I had to open some tickets to them for issues that were from my side and 100% (yes 100%) of the time, someone responded within 5 mins.
Hoping to post a similar (if not more) positive review after couple of months.
<<signature to be set up in your profile>>
current LSN customers (if possible) check what kind of hardware is their server?
I am looking @ Q9550 offer they have.
If somebody could check MB, RAM, HDD models.
Also, is there anyone on their 10TB plan?
Do they really allow customers to do this BW?
I have been with them for 3+ months now and the service has been amazing. I am pleased with the superb fast and knowledgeable customer support.
Going more into details...
I have submitted couple support tickets and all were answered on a timely manner, with proper guidance. Also their live-chat is very good, the rep. is knowledgeable and can provide technical support. The staff seems quite nice, and I am loving their new rockware panel, makes it easy for anyone to configure dns, pay invoice, check invoice, submit tickets, etc, etc. do anything you need to do regarding your server.
The overall service has been amazing, my site is quite server intensive and it loads very fast, my visitors are happy, and barely any downtime -- definitely a thumbs up from me
Where/How do I submit my domain to verify the review like I have seen in couple other threads?
Want to share my expirience after 2 weeks on limestone netwroks and psm.
For starters - i'm very happy with the service (~230$/m)
I started out with a webmin controled server without management and after 2 days of try and fail and new threads in wht i finally switched to cpanel with psm service, switch was really fast and limestone has a deal which gets you 5 bucks off psm's monthly fee.
limestone accually reinstalled my server and added cpanel and then contacted psm to get my software initialied (i even got my software configs set as my old server so i'll have a stable move).
software initiation took about 2 days with psm but that's due to special software requirment needed for my site to transfer.
responce times from psm and limestone are lightning fast and besides an overcharge of 39 bucks due to new software bug on limestone(got 40$ back yay), I can barely say something bad about this new system of running my dedi server with both limestone taking care of hardware and psm for all software issues - both do really well and fast on answering any kind of ticket.
ill give one example for this on the ticket i submited yesterday to psm, all my sent php mail() came out as spam on gmail.com, after contacting psm i got answered in less than 1 hour that my reverse dns aren't set correctly - then i got them setup with limestone and it took about 90 minutes to close this whole issue.
being moved from shared hosting to dedi servers I must say to all the new movers out there like I was that the combinitation of limestone + psm is great, you'll get fast and quallity support on all ends.
i've left out other info like uptime because this has been mentioned before and when combining the included psm monitoring with the great limestonenetworks uptime, downtime is a word i really forgot about.
I just want to preface this by saying I was on here reading up about hosting companies, their reviews and limestone networks after a phone call with Ryan A over there, was definitely going to be my provider.
However, I ordered my server about a week ago, and have some massive issues.
First and most concerning : Support.
There has been about 4 tickets from me, with no response for about 9+ hours, one ticket (when they incorrectly installed DotNetPanel, and I couldn't start hosting domains yet even) they didn't get back to me for almost 2 days. It looked like all hope was lost.
I guess (speaking with Kris there) they're working on tightening up the provisioning time, etc. With that said, they DID in fact fix my DotNetPanel installation, and all looked well.
Lastnight I figured I'd check my bandwidth, for kicks. I've been remote desktop connecting to my machine fairly frequently, maybe for about 10 minute sessions a piece, nothing major. I have nothing running on my box, I ran a couple of tests to check out pings, server loads so I figured I'd plop a quick and simple game server up there to test it. I checked my "bandwidth report" and this is what I found out:
[url]
Mind you, I have no mail server at all, nothing. in the span of 5 days I've used almost my entire quota, without running almost ANY serverside applications.
Currently my dedicated server remains shut down until this issue can be resolved. I entered yet another ticket lastnight, had one reply this morning, and it appears I'm back into the lost ticket desert.
Remember, just my experience. My point of view so far may change however, but at this rate it's been pretty horrible. 5 days on setting up a dedicated and have it all ready to go, I had to re-pay my old provider for another month due to Limestonenetwork's ability to not install DotNetPanel correctly, I'm pretty displeased at the moment.
Just wanted to take a minute and report that I am still extremely pleased with my LSN dedicated box. I have a 3ghz amd dual core with 4gig ram and 2x250gb hdd. No problems at all and staff is very helpful and knowledgeable. I don't want to go through the laundry list of things they have done for me and to my server (they are in other threads) but just wanted to say that they continue to impress.

What do you suggest me and why? plz also mention the reason..
leaseweb or Pacificrack or limestonenetworks
My company ordered server on 23/10/2009 from LimeStone, and they asked for verification hence i given them all the ID that they need. After that, they told me they couldn't accept AMEX and have to pay through PayPal, i have paid since and NOW again they asked for ID again.
Why i have to verify for second time since i have posted all my ID and utility bill for first time? I don't think i need to give so much verification since PayPal has already verified my account as i owned PayPal Verified Business Account, this kind of "repeating" or double verification never happen when i order from ThePlanet/EV1 where i am looking to migrate to Limestone Networks.
This is very unpleasant experience and I don't want to wait for more than a week to get a server.
I migrated a client from a Windows server to Linux and everything is fine except that mail sent to this client (say, example1.com) from a particular domain (say, example2.com) simply disappears and does not reach at all. Mail sent to that other domain (example2.com) from my new client (example1.com) is delivered correctly.
Incidentally, that other domain (example2.com) from which the mail is sent is with the hosting provider who was earlier providing services for my newly acquired client. Should I suspect anything? Or, is there a way to figure out what's happening?
I have MailScanner running on my VPS, but it isn't configured to filter at RBL level, only at Exim level, so I don't think this is the issue.
