Accuris Hosting - Ottawa Location Down Since September 25
Accuris' Ottawa location has been down since September 25th (It did come back up briefly but was taken back down).
All services are down, no response from peter, datacenter says the bill hasn't been paid in months. Peter is unresponsive to the DC and to customers.
I was a colocation customer of Accuris. The DC reached out to me because I had key fob access to see if I wanted to move my equipment into a cabinet since they were going to proceed with powering down Accuris' racks due to non-payment.
Anyone else also affected by the outage?

Ahh so thats where my backup server went. Well shit.
We're sorry to see people affected by this outage. We have a datacenter in Ottawa, if anyone is looking to move their colocation over, feel free to reach out in DMs. Setup can be done same-day on business days.
I guess this is what happens when a high school dropout decides to start a hosting company huh.
i genuinely don't think there is a single aspect of lowendtalk worth saving
@PeterP is on LET if you need to reach him. Looks like he was active just an hour or so ago.
Edit: No shit, dude started working for Path again 4 months ago.
can't make this shit up.
I have his cell number too, he's just straight up ghosting at this point.
Someone mentioned the thread in LET Discord last night (non-public channel) and he was typing for a long time, but never sent a message, so he's aware of it all and around.
Abandoning gear and not letting people know is never acceptable.
Interesting, last I've heard from him was September 25th. And all he said was "This is being sorted at the moment."
Can this guy just not communicate? Sounds like Path tactics when Path lost DE-CIX because of not paying bills. I hope everyone with more than just a hobbynet running there has found a solution out of this mess.

"Partial Outage" lol
Regardless of my connection to them I am curious if there is any proof behind the statement he has not paid his bills?
I am not interested in drama of course just I am told the reason for this but I am also not the person to explain.> @EthanM said:
I'm not one for drama either, I'm simply going off what I was told by the DC. The emails are confidential so I can't share, but Peter was CC'd on the emails I received so he very much has a copy of the same emails I received.
Is your AccurIX connections up?
No matter the reason, Peter's rack is offline and he hasn't responded to paying customers in over a week while being active on Discord, scummy enough for me.
I am happy to see that you wont share confidential stuff, my question is more so if the DC genuinely told you he did not pay for his services then clearly the DC did not care to tell you.
Also I do have to ask if the DC reached out to move your servers then why exactly is your own services down and regardless of if you are a fob holder if the rack is not paid for they shouldn't be letting anyone into the rack connected to his account? I am sorry this makes no sense to me
I am sorry are you a customer? have you reached out to him and not had a reply? also your opinions are irrelevant as you think bringing his employer into the picture of a thread about Accuris makes sense, typical de rail, you may have something against Path sure but that has nothing to do with any of this.
Also while I am here and you brought it let me poke the fire you tried to start with the DE-CIX, Path is still here and going, be mad but stay on topic ay
Yes and my VPS has been offline for around a week now
My own services are down because Accuris was my upstream. I'm working with the DC to find a solution for my own hardware.
Ah so did you reach out to them about it? what was their response? also you got big mad about his connection to Path but still used his service I think your opinion can be ignored bit hypictrical
So the DC will allow you into a rack that is not your own when the bills have not been paid, I would question the DC about this decision, Let me just get some colo with you then just get access and no matter what I know I can get my hardware because they will let me in even if you do not pay ....
Isn't it normal for a provider to tell his customers why his network went to shit? Radio silence about his outage that has been going on for around a week now but still super active on Discord.
I don't respect Peter because he did some scummy things when working at Path, doesn't mean I can't use his services.
I never said the DC was allowing me access to the rack, I said I am working with the DC to find a solution.
So why did you even bring it up to begin with, also you keep ignoring my question, HAVE YOU CONTACTED THEM yano the one thing that everyone says.
I am a customer and I did contact them and got a reply.
You seem to forget what you said
I'm a colo customer and Peter's been ghost on me since Sept 25th.
Am not disputing this, its more so that you are spreading ideas that bills have not been paid and this is why there is no reply, you are doing the same as everyone who you have said before is annoying and running to a public forum to cause drama, I could understand if you had said something like " Has anyone had any reply from Accuris as my services have been down and I am getting no reply" instead its lets spread the narrative that the racks are not paid.
My apologies, I should've worded that message better. I didn't literally mean I would be moving my equipment.
As I mentioned previously, that is what the DC told me.

I am not sure of the situation
But if anyone need a temporary or permanent colocation , dedi or vps in Montreal contact me
I can accommodate you for short periods for very small fee or free till you find a solution in Ottawa or elsewhere
