    Flagged to the team. We have requested the thread be marked as resolved / locked, as opposed to marked as private, as I feel it's important for this thread to remain publicly accessible, to ensure people are able to view our clarification, etc.

  • I guess this thread warned people enough now it's theirs job to trust or not. Locking this would be much better now

    I feel like the title should be changed from "WARNING STAY AWAY" to something more representative to the situation, like "Hypere's relationship to Kuxo" or similar, but that's just my opinion.

    Company Number / Address, etc are viewable on our website, they are located on the imprint page (https://Hypere.cloud/imprint)

    This has always been the case.

    Let's go the full transparency route. Here's a screenshot showing Income and Expenditure for the last month We've censored the opening, closing balance, and transaction names, and amounts to protect our privacy, and ensure our client's cannot be identified.

    Figure(s) are 2k or so over what they should be, we had an invoice payment we sent for some hardware that bounced back to us and was resent

    A bank statement doesn't tell anything about expenditures. And it certainly doesn't prove that your business is profitable. It only indicates your cash flow.
    Your accounting software gives the real picture since income, expenditure, and profit are calculated after the document/invoice date, not the payment date.

    We had this exact discussion with @emgh, we’ve sadly got to draw the line between transparency, and ensuring key elements of our business are kept private, somewhere. We won’t be sharing details of our accounting systems, I don’t feel it is necessary, we’ve proven we’ve got the hardware, we’ve proven we’ve got cashflow to pay invoices as they become due, frankly, the exact amount we make on a month to month basis isn’t anyone’s concern. I can confirm that it’s a very small amount at the moment, as most profits go into further hardware.

    If yourselves are incredibly concerned about our finances, I’d suggest you wait for when we publish our annual accounts in October, these will include more of the information you’re looking for, and we are obligated to provide it, by law.

    No, you haven't. With a bank statement, you have shown a positive cash flow in a bank account. It doesn't show that your business has a positive cash flow or you have the money to pay your invoices as they become due.
    It's a typical scammer technic when you show some evidence from a trusted source and claim it is more and/or something else than it is.

    If yourselves are incredibly concerned about our finances, I’d suggest you wait for when we publish our annual accounts in October, these will include more of the information you’re looking for, and we are obligated to provide it, by law.

    It isn't your finances that concern me. It is your lies.

    I would also assume that Companies House conduct their own due diligence and verification processes, however.

    Companies House just record the information they are sent. Probably the fraud (if there is one) wouldn't be discovered unless they chose to audit the company, either randomly or because of some other red flags.

    I mean this too looks like there's been all manner of weird goings on with the company management, but the company at least has been around since September 2021, then restructured in April 2022, then restructured again in September 2022. So who really knows WTH is going on, but the company has at least been in existence for a while and doing some trading. Whether that was in hosting related activities before December is anyone's guess.

    Kuxo in itself, was profitable, not by much, but we were profitable. We reached a deal with Leifur to invest in KUBBUR in approx July 2022 (don't quote me on this), the deal fell through, mainly due to Leifur threatening to walk from the business, which made myself incredibly hesitant to pour a significant sum of money, into what was a lossmaking business.

    So was it profitable or lossmaking? I'm confused.

    @Hypere are you raking in at least 15 k a month considering your full rack and staff members getting a fair salary?

    15k ISK per month.

    Actually, it seems from your last filing that your year end is October 2023, however as you're not legally required to submit your accounts for another 9 months after then, it could easily be summer 2024 before any of that is public.

    And for those who don't know what actually is made public, it's basically this for the last year and the one before that:

    Value of assets
    Amount of cash-at-hand (i.e. bank balances)
    Amount owed to the company, receivable in the next financial year
    Amount owed by the company, payable in the next financial year
    Number of employees

    The publicly available end-of-year accounts specifically are not required to give any indication of revenue and profits, just a snapshot into the current company situation. If they received £500,000 in income and paid out £499,900 in salaries, expenses and dividents, their accounts would look less active than a one man band that had £1000 in income and paid himself £500 for the year.

    You can possibly make an inference about cash flow based on the credits and debits for the next year, which are usually based on commitments for the next month, but it could be anything else like a bridging loan too.

    If they are a scam, some people will get scammed and/or lose money. Some will lose their data, but in the end, it is still their decision to spend money.

    NOTE: Quoted from the other LowEndTalk thread, mentioned by @Hypere above, with the highlighting added by me:

    @Hypere said:

    Good shout, i'll apply for that now. We've mainly been trading B2B for the past year or so, as such, haven't put much attention into our online presence.

    We were part of the entity purchasing KUBBUR, until mid November 2022, when both KUBBUR and Kuxo were bought out by an internal investor. We appreciate our history in this industry has not been the best, as such we are happy to provide free trials on some Xeon Server's that we've got, if anyone would be interested?

    We'll be posting a further thread with a few vouch servers, etc, once the Provider Tag is added to our account, we wont be posting further until then, to avoid falling foul of LET Rules.


    EDIT:

    Further update to the above, the provider tag has been applied for, thanks for mentioning this, it was something that was missed out on our end.

    . . . . . and this quote from above . . . . .

    @JasonM said:

    Consider what @Hypere said above:
    "We appreciate our history in this industry has not been the best..."
    ... and a favorite quote of mine:
    "The best predictor of future behavior is past behavior"

    How many LowEndTalk members are eager to try them over other providers with long histories of quality service?
