    Hi there...

    I took a VPS for 80 usd for xmas email shots, and it did well for one day and its down now for last 3 days

    There has been response everytime from them stating they are trying to resolve this but with no success. Just wana know this is issue with me only or with other forum members as well.

    I am not looking for another VPS, and have requested my money back from winkhoster.com since they said they have 7 days money back guarantee.

    Please put your Qoutes for VPS - with min 4 ips address and experiance with winkhoster.com guys!!

    Such a shame that winkhoster.com guys guaranteed me a 7 day money back and after 5 days of test their server has been down for over 4 days now.

    Can only see excuse coming and no money even after requesting refunds, too add to it their representatives are showing up as banned members on the forums now...

    I am not sure if this guy is a crap but i will make sure everyone knows him "jordanmckeag@googlemail.com" - from winkhoster.com if he is not making an refund as promised

    What do you mean chargeback was denied? Did you open a complaint in paypal? Paypal would take several days to issue a ruling at the very least.

    You can contact a lawyer and see what advice he can give you. They probably denied your claim because it was digital goods.
