  • Anyways this was just a clever bait and switch, I guess they will audit the tickets better and only allow people who are good this time who knows

    It's the simple low end launch strategy.

    1. Offer an unsustainable deal and cram as many users as you can onto your limited nodes.

    2. Add more nodes from the overselling activity and or a few rented IP blocks.

    3. Retain customers willing to pay a premium and run the churn machine all over again.

    It does not seem like a pump and dump to me.
    Below is one row of racks in their WA DC.
    Seldomly do pump and dump operations have this many racks, or such top notch personnel.
    Just saying.

    It's a Wyoming company. Nothing is verifiable.

    What bait-and-switch? This was a tax on people who can't read and follow directions.

    Yea, I think it's because the promos they made were meant for only LES/OGF. It seems like most of those customers were good, but then it got shared outside of LES/OGF in places where the trouble customers were. Those customers are the ones that are all upset because they just started rumors based on bad translations to their language.

    Don't know how you're calling getting a better CPU, NVMe storage and a bump in RAM for the same price as before as "paying a premium" but okay.

    Well I think some delay around BF / Holidays is reasonable. Our service was never interrupted either so I can’t complain.

    I believe there are already a lot of tickets open, so I think I'll wait a bit before opening one. However, since many VPSs are likely to expire around August 2025, resulting in a surge of tickets, it’s probably better to open one before that, right?

    Yeah go ahead, sooner is always better. We knew the surge was coming, already sent a pallet of frozen pizza and dr pepper to @skorupion

    Opened a ticket a week ago but still haven't get any reply... have this surge gone?

    How? Just...how?
    I was more like "AAAAHHH, why did my entire screen turn yellow?" and then had to scroll for two minutes to get to the actual webpage below the status message. How did you miss that? I'm not even mad, just impressed. :lol:

    I don't think so. :) I received a response pretty quickly 9 days ago, but that was it (the ticket is still open). :)
    Things are more time-demanding because many of those transactions are too old to be refunded automatically and require manual intervention.

    Probably working through the backlog. My open ticket hasn't been touched in a week, so it look like it's not just you.

    Yep, you're correct. Anything that was too old to automatically refund from our panel is being batched--but it's simply manually sending the calculated refund out as a PayPal payment like you would do to for any random p2p PayPal transaction and then logging it and entering back into the billing system as a refund so our records aren't a complete mess EOY. About to do a big chunk today again.
