  • Learnt from the Hostsolutions drama that olx.in has a Romanian cousin olx.ro

    Same business.

    @Falzo said: to be fair that OLX thing is probably just like craigslist or kleinanzeigen etc. so you have your ad there and once in a while it gets refreshed and pushed to the top (if you pay a small amount). no direct order or contract anyway, and the price he listed the drives (12TB at ~€340) not even chia people would contact him.

    I don't know mate, but if it was an old ad, it should be possible to track, but the oldest page I could find was on 18th May and the next was 8th of June, probably when it was deactivated. 12TB at ~€340 is quite a mark up considering that he bought them for only €148, based on an old comment, which just seems like he's trying to make a profit out of the Chia hype thinking they would be all over his disks.

    I'm starting to think that he might have managed to sell some and probably kept some for safe measures as he probably realized that it could be difficult for him to get new disks later if he had sold them all.

    Everything doesn't add up, especially when he says he's been selling hardware on OLX and has been doing it for the past 10 years, but then says he doesn't have access to the account? And now, from what I can understand from his response is that all of a sudden he's requesting for the account to be disabled?

    That is a lot of loopholes..

    Yep, that was me getting it in the kneck....
    Service down for almost a month.
    Lost confidence in hostsolutions.
    Raised a ticket asking for a refund (as per cociu's post), stating that if no response, I would chargeback.
    Waited 20 days.
    Ticket was deleted by hostsolutions.
    PayPal received no communication back from hostsolutions so awarded in my favour.
    Still have 2 services in Norway which are working well - ogf 'person' says that I should also lose these machines because of chargeback. Also feels that because of my actions I have now jeopardised the service so effected everyone else by being 'egotistical'.
    I did not want to chargeback, but no service, no emails, no ticket response, what else am I supposed to do?
    If I want to give to charity I choose the charity and hostsolutions is a provider that entered into a contract and has not unfortunately provided.

  • Just copying my comment from the other thread.

    The bottom line is nobody owns him anything, quite the reverse. On the OGF @jsg and his new crew of supporters are saying they don't want a refund, fair enough but don't be like @jsg, when you pay someone for a service, no matter what your expectations are or should be, you paid for what they promised to deliver. If that cannot happen then your money should be returned.

    Too many people have this poor @cociu approach as if they are personal friends rather than paying customers. Don't give other providers the idea they can be like @cociu.

    you did nothing wrong, instead fair and simple the right thing. don't listen to that crap other try to throw at you for being reasonable.
    I don't think cociu will retaliate by killing your norway services, yet if you have important stuff there, you have backups elsewhere anyway, right? ;-)

    I’ve had customers opening PayPal disputes for less.

    If you have tried to contact the provider and there has been no response or communication, I won’t blame your actions.

    I’m sure that if any (?) other provider treated his/her customers the same way as cociu have done, And always have, the show would have been on the other foot.

    I get the feeling that jsg always plays the devils advocate. If the majority goes one way, jsg will always fight for the other side.

    The issue at this stage is that nobody is following the thread it has become that long and polluted. Everyone is responding to the direction based on the last few posts and the real issue is lost.

    Every time @cociu posts something people are liking it and saying that's great he is here, working hard. The reality if you follow his comments they are contradictory, lack truth and so on.

    @jsg injects himself into the threads where he will get the most attention, it's self-indulgent. If he has no direct experience of a host, he has an imaginary friend that does and that allows him to have an opinion, just like that lawsuit thread.

    But what do you expect, the reality is everything is a shit show on the OGF.

    I do agree what others have said about @jsg, I do think the main reason he religion defences HS is the free VPS he got with them he did say all his free vm are purely just for benchmarking purposes but I doubt it my self.

    No matter what anyone point out eg selling actively used ip subnet or hardware in his own opinion all is still fine.

    Its really kind of a Stockholm syndrome though. People know he’s the only crazy cheap storage VM provider that ignores DMCA. I see it here too. It’s almost unbelievable what this guy can get away with. I mean, these servers will eventually return, but no one knows how long it takes till the next active IP-ranges are sold off or when other drives are destroyed when they’re moved to another DC (which is what happened here, I would bet on that).

    Biloh either wants to suck all money from LET or he wants to sell it as fast as possible. More hostility means more drama, means more clicks, means more views, means more money.

    It’s toxicity and polemics as a business model.

  • In case you didn't know, MikePT is not in HS anymore.

    Hey guys.

    Small update, not really related to the downtime - haven't had the chance to speak to Marius yet since it's been 13 days since we last spoke. He hasn't got back to me at all.

    I'm aware that this is going to hurt our finances but I've decided to end the NOC services contract with HostSolutions due to the way this is being handled. This isn't acceptable, we're not going to damage our reputation when Marius simply deletes the tickets and ignores clients asking for updates.

    I'm sorry I couldn't help you guys, wish I could do more for you.

    Remember, the jokes a few weeks back, that he still said he gets money.
    I think it was Francisco reminded him that he just get paid once a month.

    I am pretty sure, the main cause is, that the did not received the payment as promised.
    Second, telling publicly over that HS is fucked financially, maybe not be a good reflection on him, for further work.

    I don't believe what he said, end.

    Even if what you say is true, that wouldn't necessarily make what he said in his statement any less true. Don't think it's an all one or the other type situation, but more of a combination of things contributing to the decision.

    May be true.

    The shit show would cause bad smell over Mike company at some point. Probably not payment and lack of future prevision of payments so . Better run boy run

    Maybe he meant his company finance? ("our finances" as in his company rather than HS)

    He said, that leaving HS is causing a finance impact, on his side, which makes sense if he worked a lot for HS.
    But, I don't believe, that the main cause is what he said, I believe the main cause is HS finances.

    he probably simply did not get paid any further, because he didn't (couldn't) do any service&support anymore. I'd assume he got paid per ticket or the likes which is quite common. first the tickets piled up, but no order/info (how) to handle them, then they got deleted, no more work to do 🤷‍♀️

    it's totally the right decision to end the service and distance yourself a bit. hope @MikePT manages to stay away from that discussion and does not throw himself under the bus by trying to justify or talk too much about whatever.

    seriously man, DON'T! that exit was perfectly fine, don't let yourself get dragged back into it, otherwise you will get burnt!

    Perhaps, but respect to him for not adding to the shit show by making claims of anything related to their finances.

    I think Neoon's point is that it would not have been good if @MikePT had talked about the financial situation of HS.
    And I can only agree with that. I probably wouldn't hire someone who talks about the financial problems of a former customer to support my customers.
