    CoreXHosting hates to see people getting scammed, after sitting around for months seeing scams( and being scammed) I'm going to return the favor the the community and try and help those in need.

    If you were scammed either PM me or post here the plan you were receiving the price at which you were receiving it. Also from what host. I will then tell you the price I can offer or if I can offer it.

    Also if you would like to start clean you can view our shared hosting plans here and PM me that you were scammed and by who and I'll provide you a coupon.

    Interesting way of doing it ;)

    Just a question though, how are you going to regulate who has been scammed and who hasn't? :)

    How much diskspace were you receiving from bytehost?
    How much bandwidth were you receiving from bytehost?
    What were you paying?

    I know, I won't be offering anything near that but I will be giving them honest, reliable hosting for a discounted price.

    I was scammed by highspechosting.info but i purchased a semi-dedicated plan from them. They told me it's an offshore server with 100gb space and 2mbps unmetered bandwidth, paid $45. But they got an account from crayonhost instead!! When i found out i told them that it's crayonhost and they changed provider, i forgot who. less than one month, server went completely offline and they dont answer emails! I escalated to paypal for refund but according to paypal, they dont give refunds, although they tried to get their side. Scammer highspechosting was replying to paypal but he's not replying to me!

    I do hate him and I hope he won't change domain to scam more people. Ironically, i got to know them from Webhostingtalk! Because i thought webhostingtalk is a reputable forum where I can get reputable companies, but it turned out, there are a lot of scammers from that site too.

    I was also scammed by madlark. They offered 80 gb space master reseller for $60/year. After 3 months, their site was already offline. They have had a lot of excuses but never refunded their customers money.

    hi

    i posted the information you were asking for..

    for highspechosting.info, I purchased a semi-dedicated plan from them (something like a VPS also)

    100gb space
    3 mbps unmetered bandwidth
    512mb memory
    free cPanel control panel
    fully managed
    according to highspechosting, this should have been an offshore server somewhere in Netherlands
    $45 / month

    right now, it's ok for me even if it's not offshore as long as its VPS or semi-dedicated managed

    thanks

    i got scammed by gbhoster.com I had gotten there master reseller plan, i paid 70 USD yearly, unlimited everything and then slowly, slowly they suspended clients accounts for no reason claiming they were causing high load. Then three months later my master reseller account got suspended due to high load. Despite paying for full year. Then i submitted tons of tickets and only got one reply, and it said we can unsuspend but there is a fee of 30 USD . So that's how i got scammed. Obviously i didn't pay the 30 USD .
