It's still comical to me to see all these CVPS/GVH/123Sys/Whateverlowendbrand get a new bad review each or every other day on places like LET. Horrible comments peppered with one or two good ones on their LEB offers and people still say, "Hmm, well, it's only $20 a year. Maybe my luck will be better."
Yes, maybe your luck will be better. I'm sure they actually have lots of customers with acceptable service for their needs.
"A fool and his money are soon parted."
That said, I want to see people try these LE* ShitCO Incs. and I want to see folks posting ad naseum about the horrible services. If the provider delivers something stellar for $12 or $20 a year, yeah I'd like to hear about that too, in all fairness.
I am baffled though why folks at this point would even throw a stolen dime at ChicagoVPS, 123Systems and their often affiliated shit co's. Either those buyers are NOT reading/researching pre-purchase or they have money to burn [and do not care about their personal account details]. No sane person should be picking the TWO TIME, TWO TIME, TWO TIME, hacked and database dumped with all customer info, $7 2GB originator of market destruction, original shell company company to try scamming LEB with BuffaloVPS company, and who collaborated with his best buddy to covertly to successfully steal Lowendbox and Lowendtalk. Oh yeah and let us not forget, that same Chris Fabozzi who committed mass fraud operating UGVPS in the name of a woman he had no relationship with and lying to customers all that time. [There are masses of lies from ChicagoVPS... long list].
When I read reviews of VPS and hosting companies, I look for:
1. A company representative replying to customers.
2. What is the tone and nature of the company representative?
3. Is the mad customer made whole and situation resolved?
4. Does the rep go taco loco on customers and the public? Perhaps insult people, laugh at customers, tell customers unaccptable things?
5. Are there tickets posted in public? Do the responses by the company support answer things sufficiently or does it read like a flat rate, all you can eat, rotten in the hot sun, curry-go-round outsourcer?
6. Do the people involved repping the company actually exist. Do they have community profiles, social posts, relative interests outside of their company?
7. Do I believe the customer had a legit inquiry that should have been handled?
There are some other things that I apply when reading along, depending on the thread/conversation/situation.
