My NorthHosts server has been down for 13 hours, 12 tickets updates that an admin wil fix
@NorthHosts what's going on? My server has been down for 13 hours an counting, and after I created my ticket 13 hours ago, I have got 12!!!! ticket updates all saying an admin will look into the issue.
How many admins to they have? And why can't they fix my issue? Any other with NortHosts issues right now? I'm creating a new thread, since people complains in the other NorthHosts thread that it was old and people should not dig it up anymore.
Here is my ticket from start to right now: (the ticket goes from bottom up on each picture)

Thank you for your ticket, this is being forwarded to the appropriate LETmin.
The owner did a runner, host is dead, kept a lot of hardware including some of my own.
Ok, any thread with this information?

It's safe to say they won't be back - IP space has been revoked
That reply is an auto reply by WHMCS, it’s not a person replying.

It's timed to happen every 30 minutes, that's quite annoying.
Talk about spam.
Last Active July 13 I don't think you have any chance of recovery, move on, if he has some of your kit, the guy is well known he will not be hard to find.
They are dead. I have 2 VPS, i can't access them since several day. I cant boot them.
You guys are lucky, my two servers with NH have been offline for months...
Wow, why you still with them? If you are still paying for these servers I bet you if you do call your card provider and explain the situation they willl be able to reverse every payment even outside of 180 days.
May VM found out he had a dodgy network feed installed?
Is there any truth to this?
I recall someone telling me that he was a VM network engineer and the network in the 'DC' was a flaky VM line.
VM? Meaning...?
VirginMedia an internet provider in the UK. If I recall people could only pull ~300Mbps on a single thread so people suspected it was a VirginMedia residential line of 330Mbps. Unsure if any truth to this though.
Ah damn... Makes sense now, thank you!
He wasn't a VM Network Engineer, he was a VM Store Manager as far as I recall. In regards to it being a dodgy VM line, I am unsure however the network was single homed to Virgin Media so this is probably truthful.
I am happy he's finally been 'brought' down of sorts, cunt stole 2 of my SFP transceivers that cost like $140 combined.
Sorry to hear that. What can we do to stop this shady guy?
prove the debt, write him a letter with 14 days to respond, contact a UK debt collection agency who will add £500 collection fee on top and charge him for the pleasure on a no win no fee basis.
My LET failradar is getting better and better.
Resisted even the $12/yr offers from NH multiple times. fistpump
Luckily this happened now, and not next month, since my next recurring payment was in January. And I had an auto Paypal payment set up. So I was not "hurt" economically from this, it was just a couple of weeks left. But did never get any info from NorthHosts about them closing down.
But of course £10/year for 1 GB RAM is not anything you can make money off?
TBF, I'm amazed people were still with NH this far along; loads of us were jumping ship back in March/April when it was clear things were going quite badly wrong.
I have never seen thees threads here, and I have had 0 issues up til now, I even paid £5 in June, since I have a one year contract, but pays twice a year.
I have just used the VPS for my status page (my internal site for uptime on all my servers), but the page is always up in any browser, so any downtime is picked up fast if it happens when I'm awake. So there has been none downtime I have seen the last year, and I have never needed to contact support.
Just lucky I think. I have got full value for my money, except 2 weeks. Not bad, if people jumped ship in March/April.
