stay away from pq.hosting!!!
I just purchased a server from https://pq.hosting @pqhosting . their package says network speed shared 10gbit, while the reality is here:

You should test with
iperfinstead.just found another thread: https://lowendtalk.com/discussion/182517/pq-hosting-50mbps-network-is-okay-for-them-bad-experience

why would I? downloading a kernel update from alma mirrors took over 30 mins:

So have you engaged their Support about this?
and yes I have tested with wget and iperf within same eu region and speed is less than 3mbit
I did, they ran a speedtest to their local server and said:
"it's good for your tariff."
I paid $18 for 3 months
Wait, stark industries like Tony Stark from Ironman?!
yeah ironman that runs on crude oil for speed it seems lol
$6 dollars per month for 10GB shared port? ..... wow
I mean i didn't expect that at all but obviously thought it would be 100mbit at least.
Remember: If it's sounds too good to be true, it probably is!!
They offer 10Gbit/s port on Ireland. In the past I've done a YABS and it seemd true 10Gbit/s
I got a server with them recently with claims of the port being 2Gbit/s but it is truly limited to 100Mbit/s, blatantly limited so...
I got the Ireland server as well, its limited to 3mbit yet the support is blatantly lying about this so they don't have to refund. If you read their refund policy it states:
"The Internet channel is not included in this list, as there are no guaranteed indicators for this service."
How are these crappy providers still around is beyond me.
Oh. They are the abuse network that is abuse ignore....
https://stark-industries.solutions/
Seems the added a disclaimer on who they actually are now. Interesting....
They are russians. Avoid.
Aéza is Russian aswell and never had a single issue
(among the other 20 russian providers I use)
But if you face any issues, catch them if you can in Russia. Why the risk? No prod stuff, only idlers and toys.
I don't think you know what you're talking about. I know someone who used PQ hosting to portscan Minecraft servers and got banned in just 12 hours.
What's wrong with Russian hosters?
Most Russian hosts are creating LTDs outside Russia, including Aéza. I'm not paying to Aéza RU now, I'm paying to Aéza International LTD based on the UK.
Legally doesn't mean much, but harder to exitscam. Most LE(T/S) hosts that exitscam aren't from Russia...
Ridiculously enough, I got scammed 1 time by an Ukranian-based host and never by Russian one.
I got banned faster for hosting a tor guard/middle node (not exit)
Like he said, good luck enforcing any of your ”rights”
He posted that mere seconds before I clicked post, sorry.
You are just stupid. The same exact thing applies to any LET hoster.
PQ hosting does the exact same thing. https://find-and-update.company-information.service.gov.uk/company/13906017
According to company records, the company isn't run by "the Russians", its run by a Moldovan guy.
@sillycat ah, my bad
I think he has a point though
It dosen’t have to take a lawsuit to see the difference
Just the fact that western companies KNOW that if they fuck you over hard enough, you COULD in theory file a lawsuit and you’d probably win makes a difference
I only do business with companies who operate where my basic rights are protected
Just curious - who and when (year) that was? You can DM me as well, thanks
A week ago. https://ruvps.net/en (don't get their promo plan if you're someone involved in other projects, they will block your tickets and suspend your server, also force installing qemu-guest-agent all the time
and "changing parameters" don't really know what they're doing in my server but 99% sure they've logged in multiple times)
Too bad
I don't think they are from Ukraine - QIWI/WebMoney/Yoomoney + Bulgraria office
Their ASN does say so. https://ipinfo.io/AS51264
The domain linked is their VPS control panel.
It is individual entrepreneur from Ukraine while their contacts page says Bulgaria. This is really strange thing.
Well, it seems. They also provide RU servers but from other ASN?
