R.I.P Another one bites to dust !

R.I.P
The time-proven Gillette model: Give them the razor, sell them the blades. Speaking of which, years ago I found a Gillette razor in the mail, free and out of nowhere.
One LowEnder around here gives them the VPSs and sells them the dedicated. It doesn't seem to be working though!
Food for thought.
Who?
Sad to hear that another provider is closing. Nowadays it's just too hard to keep up with the many LET providers, I only know a few. This market is tough.
You whish I told you
Problem is, if I name the name, the unnamed one would come over in full armor defending how profitable every one of his tiniest sales is. And we would believe it.
RIP and some refugee offer coming?
We wonder how many providers on the No IPv6 hall of shame has deadpooled.
I used to have a server from them because it had IP classified as ‘Business,’ at least for a while.
Rename it to Deadpool list
I lurk here daily and never heard of them, so wasn't for sure if it was a LET provider or not. Still not sure.
Short notice, but at least they're offering refunds to those impacted.
That was quick
. I remembered seeing flash sales from spiketel during BF.
Welp, deadpool season
They probably learned that if you give refunds AND a couple of months notice it creates multiple massive drama threads where your company name gets dragged through the mud.
Oh?
I only saw one and that was because they didn't offer the refund..
No emails, sad to let my BF deal with them to go. Shortest-lasting BF deal so far.
I would categorize that as "absolutely awful handling overall" instead of the refund itself.
I thought that award went to 0(week)webhost.
Some may sad that 9.99$/y HK vps went 0 too fast. But atleast their HK is real, not imaginary SG lol
refund came thru.
It was good while lasted, RIP.
Just another summerhost closing, nothing new.

Damn.. RIP.
That explains why I got a refund from them.
I wonder, if you’ve shut down, why are you still charging customers? You’ve taken money from my account several times before I managed to block my card, and you’re still trying to withdraw money from me — are you seriously that shameless???
Even the dead want money!
