Alibabacloud secretly modify the server configuration!!
I bought a server in Alibabacloud at a discounted price ($120/3years), but Alibabacloud secretly modify the bandwidth, it was originally 200M, changed to 1M, and then I asked customer service, they said it's an abnormal order. But I bought it in the normal way. They want to withdraw this order and give me the coupon for the same price as compensation. What should I do now?
before
200Mbps fixed bandwidth
after
1Mbps fixed bandwidth
original price: $107303.21 Amounts payable: $120.8477

Legal action, hashtag assault and chargeback. #unitedagainstalibaba
Alternatively, dry your eyes and move on.
You either plan legel actions which are not worth it for $120 or you accept that they kicked you out, demand a pro-rated refund, sell the coupon somewhere and post lots of shame threads on every hosting community you know.
Under normal circumstances this server is $100000/3years, cuz its 200M bandwidth
probably some kind of small print in their terms and conditions allows them to modify the VMs bandwidth - definitely unfair to customers, but it's their terms. if so, you should have read them before purchasing from them!
And you paid for the server 120$????
Jeje.
yes
Bandwidth was probably fair usage and you were top users
So, you paid $120 for something that worth "$100000" and you are complaining because the company it's limiting the bandwith.
Ok...
how do you get link order?
I bought it in the normal way.
Not only limit the bandwidth, but also modify the order information!!
THAT'S NOT THE POINT.
IT'S $100000 SERVER AND YOU ONLY PAID $120 FFS
Better call Saul
IF YOU SELL $100000 SERVER FOR $120 THEN PROVIDE THE PAID SERVICES. JEEZLESS
Demand refund and provide proof (screenshot or listing of the deal..!).
"In bird law, this is considered a dick move."
You have to sue the host to get your way. It will be worth it (for us).
In bird law, this is considered main chicken.
Radically discounted offer and Alibaba didn't honor their promise.
Well, this is completely shocking.
You're missing the point. You will never get what you paid for. The only question is what to do next.
General Tso would beg to differ. But if I have the chicken with the crepe, should I have it on the plate or off the plate? On the plate or off the plate?? On the plate or off the plate???
I can bet this cn2 costly bandwidth where 80 usd per 1mbps and op was using too high .
3000 a month? What did he buy? Facebook?
Obviously, he didn't buy nothing near $100000 for $120.
There is no provider in the world that honour a $100000 service for just $120 (even limiting BW to 100 Kbps). If was an error, a really big one, the provider paid you back the paid money and bye bye.
Well, then why did you mention it?Sorry, just noticed that the OP appears to have mentioned that originally.Anyhow, it doesnt really matter how much he paid for it. What matters is that he paid for a service and the provider seems to have unilaterally changed what was paid for.
I dont necessarily want to cry fraud straight away, but anything less than a refund would be highly questionable.
I agree.
Replied in wrong topic...
OP could really win the lawsuit here. He should really go for it.
