Stay away from PhotonVPS.

[ScammersAreDumb]

Someone should pm a link to this topic to Persia.

I've been saying the same shit for over a month, stay the fuck away from Photon.

Did anyone heed my warnings? No.

$5 says that when Persia sees this he'll still try to defend Photon.

Edit - cc chargeback. Do it.

Sadly I used a debit card, so I can't dispute anything.

If you paid for Photon with a CC, I would try and get your money back through them.

EDIT: Just read your post, sorry to hear that.

@Master- Photon is a very good company, and I haven't really heard any issues aside from this. Do you have experience with Photon? If you don't, you have no right to badmouth them.

 

[Master X]

Technically, you can.

Its a debit card yes, but its a Visa/Mastercard/we debit card.

Even then you should still be able to get the money back from bank. Just say you lost your card at work and someone turned it in a couple days later.

And yes, I do have bad experience with Photon.

Also, LOIC anyone?

 

Sounds like a scumbag.

I would send him a reply stating I am taking you to court regardless of your empty threat. Seriously, I highly doubt they can even contact Jagex with ease, let alone get them to come to court over a single VPS.

 

[Master X]

Anyone willing to bet that its Jagex themselves that is pushing Photon to do this? Any takers?

Admit it, its very proable.

This.

Does Photon actually think they can just 'get' Jagex to go to court over 3 bots? Doubtful.

And yes, you can actually get your money back even with a debit card. Call your bank, I believe.

Im saddened that no body commented about LOIC'ing them.

If i had enough money, just for irony, i'd purchase a top tier server from Photon to LOIC them with.

Hmm, I'll check with my bank, but I'm pretty sure they have a like 0 liability policy or something. Either way it's only like $75, so meh...

I knew it was an empty threat, lol, but regardless, me commenting back probably wouldn't have done anything. I stayed polite and professional the entire time except for me "weasel" comment, hehe.

Doubt it, that's probably a little paranoid now, lol.

Naw, he's just mad because I kept reopening the same ticket over and over again because he wouldn't answer my one simple question, lol.

LOIC = Low Orbit Ion Cannon

Its a refrence to a superweapon CnC's main series.

Basicly, its a ddos'er. Anon knocked out quite a few sites during Operation Payback using this program.

Edit

Im not paranoid. WHICH OF MY ENEMIES TOLD YOU THIS?!?!?

Whether it's $5 or $75, that's still money. You worked for it, they took it. Why should they be able to take it?

Yeah, well, I'll talk to my bank, but if they say no, there's probably not much I can do.

 

[Austintheman]

Alright, and the vps still works but with random crashes right? Just bot as much as you can on it.

 

[shortperson]

honestly after using i dont see how you can ask for a refund i could see maby asking them to fix it i did that with one of my providers i said that it was not running the way it should and they messaged back saying i was well within there limitations and after talking with them the problems they changed some setting i think it had to do with a java limitation they had and it ran amazingly better after but asking for a refund after using it for a few days its something you are doing wrong chances are considering my 1gb of ram photon vps is running 2 soul wars bots with little lag and openvz is not recommend for botting support said so i bought the more costly xen

 

[Pockets]

This just cost them my business as I was looking for my first vps and they were at the top of my list.

I'm thinking now that I might get the bronze plan at seerhost. It looks like they are ideal for me to easily do this and practice with 2 bots before I start doing more.

dont let it cost you your business if the guy was trying to use a openvz to bot which everyone says not to do its his fault and demanding a refund because he did not research is imo retarded

He CLEARLY, MULTIPLE times stated he has Warp 3. Warp 3 is XEN, not openvz.

Photon has said themselves they will refund within 30 days. For any reason, up until now, that is. So if he wants a refund, he should get one. Period.

I can run 4 bots with the bronze plan for seerhost. (That's how many I tried but idk if it does more never tried.)
