You and @Otus9051 are on the same page
because it's just scam
NanoKVM is also a scam, VM never gets deployed.
Use your real account @Otus9051
Did you verified your email or have entered your correct information ?

Now, they charged 0.50$/month
Possibly because of MJJ signing up a lot and then opening a ticket saying is it a scam or give me my free vps now
Ah the good old $0.00 for publicity then charge.
Still, $0.5 is very cheap. Perhaps they are doing it to reduce spam.
no
yes
I'm guessing OP did not...
ok
I suggest to apply for a refund as fast as you can. Open a PayPal dispute and charge back like right now.
Oh wait...
I hope you do realize that hosting companies are not entitled to provide you with services. They can select who they serve, especially when it is free.
I can’t believe that this SCAM host lost OP over a million dollars 😔
To be fair, the domain was registered on 2022-09-06. Offering a "free" VPS can be a quick and dirty way to obtain a lot of private information quickly, especially if it's manually approved to check against bots.
If they're just collecting data and not delivering on anything then it's best to be weary.
The owner stated that he was getting spammed by bots, which is why he canceled all the "illegitimate" free plans and bumped it up to $0.50/mo to prevent abuse.
My problem? But I couldn't even search it throughout google or bing (at least not at the first page or second)
@raindog308 shouldn't we change the post title to OP is scammer or something else and move it to off topic.
I have been using Harbor Cloud for the past week, and they are a legit company.
OP didn't used the correct details and may have signed up multiple account also may be he told his all friends to sign for free VPS and they did same signed up using fake details.
That's why Harbor Cloud cancelled his request and started charging for a free VPS plan to prevent spam with $0.50 per month, which is still very cheap for 1 vCPU, 1GB of RAM, 10GB of storage, and 1 TB of bandwidth.
Wow, getting scammed for a service you never paid for!
Does that also count as a scam?
Scam? Really? I know I've used the word scam a bit loosely myself, but how the fuck can you call this a scam? A scam requires you to be scammed out of money.
Only an idiot gets scammed without paying a cent. Are you an idiot @misaka ?
Stop being dense. Its a free service that got abused. Go cry in the mirror because thats the only person who will care.
I agree
can we just close this thread? its good for nothing...
You know what the real scam is? http://free.vps.vc/
It is most likely run by op and collects telegram account information
