    @aqua said: I would not have posted any new offers or BF deals.

    I will not go deep into this discussion at this day. Time (3 - 6 months from now) will tell. Well, at least you have AMG with "NOFRAUD" plate and I respect that open declaration.

    We'll see, if you want to continue this discussion, feel free to PM me and I'll answer any unknowns. Everyone already was betting on me back maybe 6-8 months ago, and well I'm still here.

    Further more, I want to add that I am fully debt-free. This was simply out of my decision as I was not providing a industry standard level of support and service. I've been struggling to find employees that are able to help me run this business. I was still breaking even to making profit but it just seemed that business kept declining more and more each month as I was unable to provide offers or even support. Cancellations came flooding in each month and I just kept losing hope in it. I've decided to downsize my space (no affect to current clients) to help keep costs low so something like this is completely off the table.

    There were no banks involved in this decision, it was simply my own that I thought was required, but ended up that I didn't need to due to the circumstances that came.

    If anyone would like to ask any questions I will openly answer them.

    What is going on?

    He/she changed mind, business continues as usual, as we have seen, running actively.

  • Just want to leave my experience here for others considering purchasing a dedicated server from this provider:
    (Times in CST)

    • Nov 25 @ 22:40 - paid for service
    • Nov 26 @ 09:54 - service provisioned
    • Nov 26 @ 23:45 - I screwed up network config; requested KVM access
    • Nov 27 @ 01:16 - received reply saying the ticket was forwarded to someone else
    • Nov 28 @ 11:30 - I followed up on ticket asking for ETA

    Still no access to server or reply to ticket as of Nov 28 19:36, about 44 hours after submitting the ticket.

    I don't know how their support is outside of BF/CM, but you may want to keep this in mind if you're planning to use their services for production applications. Until I screwed it up, the server and network were performing as expected. Got a great price so I'm quite happy overall.

    @aqua
    Could you clarify if this response time is due to an influx of sales or is this expected year-round?

    Hello,

    This is entirely due to the influx of sales and our low manpower. I'll get to the ticket now.

    Brian (primary system admin) is only able to work weekends now due to sudden other outside-of-life commitments now, and I have been working on getting some new employees in. I am extremely sorry for the wait time and will make up for this.

    Ah.. this path is intentional? I was letting you know it was broken (I thought). Typically I'd expect to see if the coupon worked before bothering to put all my details in your db (since I prob wouldn't bother purchasing if the coupon was invalid, thus no need for you to have my details). Sorry for the hassle!
