The GoodHosting Advantage
Straight-forward pro-rata billing
All services recur on the 14th, meaning that an account with multiple services need only pay one invoice a month. You can also gain discounts on all our standard pricing when you pre-purchase either Quarterly, Semiannually or Annually.
Upgrade or downgrade at any time!
You can upgrade or downgrade your service at any time, with any portion of the resource (CPU, RAM, HDD, IPs, etcetera.) Your upgrade will be processed by our dedicated support staff at any time once the invoice has been paid, and you will only pay for the pro-rated difference.
Cancel or order at any time!
You can cancel your order at any point, even during a period; and are eligible to receive a refund or a portion of the period. Please make sure to open a Support Ticket after lodging the cancellation or downgrade ticket to get your pro-rata refund.

We challenge other providers to show this level of legitimacy as a bare minimum.
[1] We provide Windows Server licensing through Metricloud SPLA at this time. You can either purchase a Windows Server Licensing in addition to your initial order, or bring your own license. Students and developers may be able to obtain free or inexpensive licenses from their network, or through association or registration with systems such as DreamSpark.
[2] Storage is backed by a Hardware RAID10 using HP P812 cards or better, over a SAN.
Please note that deployments are handled manually, your VPS could take up to 72 hours to be initially provisioned, from which point; you can use the provided SunStone management panel to re-create your VPS at any time, even change your OS or resources completely. This manual deployment system is in place to protect both our company / existing customers, as well as you (the future customer) from abuse and fraud.

what is seo-class ip4 address?
take it to hackforum, scrub
It mean it is between 0.0.0.0 and 255.255.255.255
We have been a member of LowEndTalk for well over a year now, with many successful offers.
For the sake of HitLeap, it is an IP Address not banned in their system; or on common bot lists. It would be a useless service if the IP addresses were blacklisted. We take special care to make sure our IP addresses are not placed on blacklists, and work actively with the list maintainers to remove listings when they do inevitably happens from time to time.
Please see the above explanation.
Chicago isn't with SinglHop, is it?
No. We are in 350 E. Cermak for our Chicago location.
Grabbed one. Rarely see KVM on such price.
Is the VPS manually provisioned?
I still not getting my VPS information.
Canada may allow BitTorrent?
Hello Seikan,
As stated in the opening post, our other offers, and our site:
Legal torrents, sure. All of our locations allow legal torrents.
By the way, your signature code is a bit messed up. Try HTML instead such as:
Oops, my eyes just skipped the gray colors wording automatically.
I applied for a refund but they didn't refund back and delete my VPS immediately. The first time I saw such businesses, they said my PayPal account is suspected of fraud , but I have confirmed to PayPal, my account is completely normal. I do not know why, this is a very unpleasant trading anyway. but I think it is not a trading , like a robbery.
Finally I through the paypal dispute to deal with it, but PayPal does not protect virtual items, so I have no way.
May I have a link to your company registration information (on an authority's website)? Your WHOIS is private, this doesn't seem to be a good sign for me.
It's changed, Paypal protects buyers even if it's virtual item. But you should try to contact GoodHosting first.
Save the chat session, capture tickets.... in case you need to use.
Hello @aus ,
Unfortunately that's near impossible. In Canada, corporate information can only be queried by authorized persons (to prevent directors from being targeted by personal attacks from other corporations that do dirty things to get ahead, I'm sure there are some people here on LowEndTalk that know exactly what I'm talking about.)
You can phone "Corporations Canada" and give them the Corporation number that we posted in our Opening Post, they will gladly fax or E-Mail you information about our company; but I am not aware of any online service that publicly provides this information.
Hello @bobyun ,
While I cannot comment on your specific situation (as you have not posted any Ticket IDs, account IDs, invoice IDs, order IDs, or any other way to validate that you were in fact ever a customer with us); our standard policies are well described in our Terms of Service that you agreed to if you signed up for a service with us.
In the event of receiving any trouble from the Payment Gateway, such as a Claim or Chargeback; Unauthorized payment notification or any other sort; Albino Geek Services Ltd. reserves the right to terminate your account and services under suspect of fraud; albeit this is not a right that we exercise frequently.
This is why even our claims page on PayPal shows our Terms of Service (a custom service that PayPal now offers.) So if a client goes to open a Claim or Chargeback in their Resolution Center, they will see the important excerpts from our Terms of Service on the top of their screen; where the transaction details are listed. We have made this policy as transparent as possible so clients know what they are about to do before they do it.
That being said, what you're saying here doesn't make much sense. While our Terms of Service explains in clear English what our refund policy technically is, we very often provide refunds of service(s) outside of our Terms of Service as a courtesy of doing business; as long as the account has been kept in good standing and has no history of fraud, malicious activity, or other undue conduct.
Please PM me any relevant information so I can identify your account, otherwise I have no means to comment on your specific situation, as I have no means to identify your account and surrounding transactions.
I have two Invoices , when I bought the Ci1 ,I paid the No.1471 invoice , then I want to upgrade to Ci3 , I paid the No.1501 Invoice . But when I cancel my service , I get the refund of 1501 , your stuff said that my account suspicion of fraud and he will connect the paypal to solve it . I have watting for a week to get your response , then I connect the paypal myself , my account completely normal . If you have the chat session , you can read it.
I order your service in 12/09/2014 , upgrade it in 15/09/2014 , and apply refund in 18/09/2014 . After I cancel my service ,I open the ticket #HSJ-6096-UOC to tell you I want to refund . I have said that I didn't I'm not satisfied with your network quality. but your didn't response me in ticket until it closed automatically .
So , this is your TOS ?
You can cancel your order at any point, even during a period; and are eligible to receive a refund or a portion of the period. Please make sure to open a Support Ticket after lodging the cancellation or downgrade ticket to get your pro-rata refund.
As far as our records show, both payments (Invoice # 1471 and Invoice # 1501) were refunded in full when you had asked for the refund. Our staff initially responded as they did because that is what PayPal had told us, that the payments were under review as part of PayPal's limitations department related to suspicious account activity. They would not give us any details on this, and told us to instruct the customer (you) to contact them directly.
That being said, both payments show as refunded on my end. The only time in which a refund would fail and still show as success on our end, is if there was already an open case, hold, or update to reversal on the transaction (or related transaction) already; as placed by either you or PayPal. As per how this is solvable, it's not that easy. We would have to speak with a PayPal representative and have them override the "stalled" refund in particular, as the transaction is no longer controllable via the API (this is a known bug.)
That being said, they both show as refunded. Can you please PM me (or come on LiveChat) with the Unique Transaction ID of the transaction in which you are not seeing as refunded already? As both transactions show as refunded on our end./
As per the ticket, you had stated that the "network was worse when I bought it", which confused our staff; hence the lack of reply on the ticket. It may have been simply an issue of language barrier now that I look back on the ticket myself, and I do apologize that it was not replied to at the time considering.
As per our Terms of Service, you can read them here: http://goodhosting.co/terms.htm . This is the very same Terms of Service that you had to tick a box saying you understood, read, and accepted during your order process. The information in our offer post here is not our Terms of Service, they are two very different things.
I have pm you the Unique Transaction ID . If you want , I can give you the screenshot of the details of the transaction with my paypal.
I apologize with my poor english . But if Just like you said , I didn't get the refund of Invoice 1471, your WHMCS show the invoice's status is paid not refund, it make me think that you are not refund, My paypal also get the money of No. 1501 invoice only.
@bobyun - what kind of network performance did you expect from a provider that has a node full of bots running 24/7 as your neighbors.
I'm still not sure what he was complaining about, with 80MB/sec to cachefly and most US locations, the speed was only less than this for Europe, which is to be expected (of course.) As per the JingLing VPSes, they take less than 2Mbps each (so it does nothing to our network.)
Not just that, but "24/7 bots" are less impactful on a network than people that do these obnoxious abusing "benchmarking" where they run DD and download tests all day, for the entire month; which is much that we get from LowEndTalk.
This has been done.
Not here to bash on you but, gaslighting your customers in not cool. imo/e, @bobyun was correct about the network speed.
EDIT: removed bad benchmarks
Which cluster are you on, I'm not seeing anything like this on any of our test VMs (which are all 256MB CentOS 6 images.) See below for the examples of the last results run from each cluster:
Chicago Cluster (node CX13)
Scranton Cluster (node fox0001)
Montreal Cluster (node bhs0001)
And the speedtests:
cx13-test:
fox1-test:
bhs0001-test:
Even using your script, we get much better results on our test configurations:
Montreal Cluster (node bhs0001):
Scranton Cluster (node fox0001):
Chicago Cluster (node cx13):
All that being said, there is one fatal flaw in this testing script; it does not in fact do a pure download test or upload test. The files you are testing with are written to and read from the partition in which you run the script, so the speeds shown are always going to be fairly limited. As a workaround, you can "cd" into /dev/shm before running the script to be testing with a RAM partition instead, but this still has overheads.
I'll bet you do
Chicago. I stand corrected you have a good network. My poor results must be due to the fatal flaw in @black 's testing script running from /root and not your network. I am glad we could have this meaningful conversation to try and improve our reationship
If you re-run the script after first doing
cd /dev/shm/
you should see similar results to the ones I have posted. If you are still seeing poor results, please open a Support Ticket and we would gladly help you through system configuration to improve your system performance.So it violates LET's rules I believe?
