You are unfair to Luca now!
First of all it's Tier-3 infrastructure design and this design is about the datacenter (basement), not the actual VPS service that follows the Tier-YOLO design.

Additionally, PayPal states business accounts can’t receive friends & family payments anymore, so I guess they’re also using a personal account for business activity.

That can't really be, because I have a business account and at the weekend I was still able to receive money as family and friends. (Not for any kind of business ofc)

🤷‍♂️ Just basing it on the PayPal website - "You can no longer accept friends and family payments on your Business account. However, if you’d like to receive friends and family payments, you can use or create a Personal account. If you don’t use other business products with your account, you can also change your Business account to a Personal account." - here.

As of July 28, 2022, US Business accounts can no longer receive friends and family payments from US senders.

PayPal is a global brand... with a lot of local country-level rules [totally expected as they payment processor/mony app etc].

Fair comment, I assumed it was more universal as it also applies in the UK (here), Canada (here), and potentially other countries.

Its on the 3rd floor, hence Tier 3.

Not trying to rub salt in the wound or anything, but it's also another immediate 🚩 when a provider, or business, claims and advertises being:

Italy's premier data center

cutting-edge datacenter in Pomezia, near Rome

Italy's Leading Data Center

Cutting-Edge Facilities in Pomezia

However, you find no visual evidence of such a facility anywhere on the Internet, including, and most importantly, their own website

No offense meant to the provider but we all know "basement" providers do exist in the LowEndWorld and we're somewhat happy to accept when they're transparent about it.

ahahah.

I'm going to add "AI-powered" on that list

Choose one of the next 4 answers:

There was no problem
Please send a ticket through our advanced AI powered ticketing system (or mail as non-Italians call it)
Please wait one month, we're improving
You didn't use the Friends & Family option in Paypal, so we can't

"On Saturday 25th, we will be performing all-day maintenance on the electrical line. Please use our services as little as possible and prefer backups."

LOL... isn't that always the case? Use c1vhosting services as little as possible and prefer others?

Also:

Why only put such a notice on your website and not inform customers otherwise?
How long can you need to update your website?
Tier 3 should ofcourse facilitate maintenance on power without a doubt...

THE FUTURE IS NOW! They can post updates from the future (15:40 last update vs 15:06 real time...), must be hella of AI.

That timestamp of last update was there already this morning. So apparantly it is a message of yesterday, or the day before, or...

That's why I mentioned "How long can you need to update your website?"...

Very interesting that a TIER 3 (DESIGN) DC can go down due to 'maintenance on the electrical line'.

Please use our services as little as possible and prefer backups. ROFL.

Nah, he's renovating the garage data center. You have no idea how beautiful the pictures of the garage data center will be, especially from the right corner.

The VPS on my Node never has been down 3 days.
Its a sign from the lord, jesus christ.

The end is near, amen.

So he did not lie after all when he said that it will be better. When I was hosted with them, the uptime was around 93%. They are improving!

@Neoon said: I think C1VHosting deadpooled at this point.

Sadly I thought exactly the same, but I hope I'm wrong.

@Calin iHostArt has performed it before: At first the VPS was unstable but acceptable considering the price, then with every update or maintenance the VPS got worse in CPU load, traffic speed, uptime, etc, at last the service terminate in advance.

My VPS (1 vCore) got online hours ago, but the load keeps about 4.00, previous logins via SSH took less than 2 seconds, but this time was more than 2 minutes and the .bashrc was not loaded, prompting a bash5.2 $ or something when finally logged in successfully. And a simple command like ls took seconds to respond.

Don't reboot, or you will not be able to log into the system for a while like me (only reachable via ping).

I hoped that restarting would fix the problem. As you mentioned, I am now unable to connect to the server.💔

The AI sensed your vibes

Mine's been up for 3 days. Definitely much slower than at launch though
