Great offer, bought a vps pool two or three months back. These guys are fantastic
I even referred a friend to them and they gave me double bandwidth for free without question. I think this is a provider I’m going to stick with for a long time :)
Happy Cyber shopping!
Thanks a ton, and feel free to contact us if we can ever assist you in any capacity.

OMG the cyber mundae (get it?) deals only keep getting better
Bought over 6 offers from LEB website this weekend and now going to buy a vps pool from Bigfoot.
Thanks Amir; really appreciated and enjoy!
– Alex
Tun/tap supported?
Thnx please answer me fastly as I don’t want to miss the deal
I am waiting and ready to order
Yes, TUN/TAP is supported and can be enabled within a few clicks in the panel.
– Alex
Can I utilize Ubuntu?
Yes, you can definitely run Ubuntu on your VPS instances if you wish. We also offer a wide variety of other Linux OS options.
– Alex
Is docker supported on these plans?
I just signed up for a pool and now realized that docker is not supported!!
Last time Alex responded to a question about docker support back in August:
BigFootServers Alex:
At this time, Docker is not supported out of the box. We are actively working on a solution for this as we are seeing an increased demand for this.

Wonderful company – and the owners/managers are very helpful. Much better experience than going with a giant like HostGator. I would not hesitate to recommend them to others, the support is very personalized and caring.
Thank you Jamar, this means a lot that you took the time out of your day to write this about us :)
– Alex
I wouldnt them recommend right now. Their system is horribly unstable as of the time of writing this comment. I have had nothing but outages and VPS’s going offline. I just booted 6 vps’s that were offline and now I have 4 offline 4 hours later.
Do you have any ticket numbers with us that I can look into? I’m not aware of such issues.
– Alex
Hello any improvements or still downtimes ?
I bought a 6x VPS Pool plan earlier this AM. Got all 6 instances finally set up and working between LA and Dallas. Support answered my questions within an hour which is acceptable, considering how busy I bet they are because of the cyber monday crazyness.
Thanks Joseph – we are pushing hard here. All hands on deck during this Cyber Week…
– Alex
Bought the 10x VPS plan with the expectation of an LA located VPS. Unfortunately there is actually no LA spots available, and the Dallas VPS is HORRIBLY slow even when we crank the resources up. If we can’t get an LA location then we may be forced to ask for a refund, as it is the server we’re on lags far too much.
LA region is back in stock now. We ran out of space for a short time, as we’ve received hundreds of orders in less than a <24 hr period due to this sale.
Thankfully, a new shipment of nodes came in to our LAX datacenter today so we went ahead and added more room in this region. That said go ahead and try to deploy now, it should work.
– Alex
Any update so far in your vps plan ?
Bought 10 VPS Pool, tested with LA but with error message = “Auto select error (No free nodes found in group LosAngeles)”, seems like LA is out of order. Any plan to add more LA nodes to VPS Pool? Thanks!

For those who haven't ordered yet – you're lucky! We re-enabled stock on all Cyber Monday packages for a limited time, because we now have the additional nodes available to support the capacity/demand. So if you haven't got one yet, now's a perfect time before we expire these promotions for good!
– Alex
Thanks Alex. I’m now able to create LA node and the performance is well better than DALLAS.
Welp, we don’t celebrate Thanksgiving in my country but I sure do love the great VPS deals that become available online after this special day, haha.
Thanks for the offer. Picked up a “10 x VPS Pool” plan and got my 3 months free.
You’re very welcome – enjoy.
– Alex
Stay away! I tried the service and decided I needed KVM (to support Docker) so I requested cancellation/refund they said there would be no problem since this is within the refund period. It has been 2 days and now they are not responding…
You sound really antagonistic. I wouldn’t be surprised if you were one of the clients featured on https://clientsfromhell.net/ , lol (or what I call a devil client).
Seriously, only 2 days and you are already complaining? For one, it is a USA holiday, and for two, they are probably backloged because of the Cyber Monday demand. keep us updated after a reasonable time frame.
You don’t know me, and I don’t know you. So, I’ll just say I got my refund and it seems like this service is not for me. Good luck for you and for them, I am glad you have a better experience…
Agreed. Sam could of been a little more understanding especially during the holidays every company is busier than usual. Anyway, glad that the guys at BigFootServers made it right and sorted it out for him :)
Cheers!
I have hired this company for VPS host in Dallas center. The uptime and speed is high-performing. Thank you.
Still all good in dallas location 100% uptime so far ?
I bought one earlier this morning
Interesting concept I mut admit. I never had a “VPS Pool” before – it’s actually pretty cool. Lets you create, destroy VPS instances on your own determinism. Pretty sweet interface to.
We run crypto masternodes for ourselves and our clients. Would definitely save money switching to a pool, but the following TOS is concerning:
“BigFootServers reserves the right to refuse refunds to Clients who are using BigFootServers servers for any kind of distributed computing such as mining,, FOLDING@HOME, or cryptocurrency related applications (Example: Bitcoin Mining). Additionally, payments made using Cryptocurrency as the payment method are not eligible for refunds.”
So, you accept crypto payments, but want nothing to do with crypto in your servers?
You’ll find this to be the case with 99.99% (if not 100%) of the VPS providers out there. And prolly 100% of the providers on LOWENDbox.
Usually crypto related apps are only allowed on Dedicated servers no matter what provider you go with.
This clause is usually used in cases where someone is doing CPU intensive mining or distributed computing not just running master nodes or other crypto software
Can you provide a comprehensive list of what kernel modules are loaded on the host machines? Curious what functionality is supported at the kernel level.
No IPv6? I have to have IPv6 for all my domains.
Hello just wondering if running a vpn is possible ( not for torrents or anything like that, just i do a lot of travels into more restricted areas, cant use facebook and other apps)
Also if my ip gets blocked, is chaning it possible,
I think so since they provide tun/tap support so you can run the private vpn just fine.
Any update about run masternodes there ? I think after the first time to run (sync all blockchain can took a few time and higher utilization then after all goes smooth) I saw many people running their masternodes stuff in vultr and contabo and share good reviews about it, but I think the vps pools will be more cheap if we can run without any issues in their rules.
Got a 3GB VPS, the VPS was toooo slow, asked for refund, still waiting for it….
Even though I have mentioned I want the refund, they still are saying “We are checking” and not responding to any tickets.
I had to start a paypal dispute case to get a refund, once I asked for refund they stopped answering.
They are not answering me as well now, despite posting it several times. This is really unacceptable and unprofessional.
Update: This is getting more and more weird. I opened a PayPal dispute and just after 10 minutes I get an email that my service has been suspended??
Suspension Reason: Overdue on Payment
What does Overdue on Payment mean here? HUH
The company have answered or refunded the paypal dispute ?
I had a server with them a few months ago. It went down multiple times, and they moved nodes for me, which didn’t solve the issue. I asked for a refund, and it went nowhere for over 14 days. I ended up having to open a paypal dispute to get a refund. Strangely within hours of opening the dispute, they refunded me entirely.
I very much recommend avoiding them. Read other reviews on the site, and there are numerous people who have had the same issues.
Yeah I saw so many bad comments and then the company don’t even care to answer or try to solve the issues. Have you found any other vps pool company who care a little about their customers ?
Patrick, that was a WHMCS feature. They use that as their billing system as well as every other Provider on this site. If you open a dispute, the PayPal IPN will report back to their WHMCS and WHMCS will mark the invoice as unpaid/overdue
I was reading the older offers from bigfoot so many complains and don’t have any answer… refund request took 15 days and need to wait the next batch… All you guys here are still happy to comment about the vps services ? Because it’s really confusing so many bad reviews and like no one cares and the company keep going with these type of conduct ?
I think what you fail to realize is that it’s only nature of the homo sapiens to complain and write something negative the moment something goes wrong, even if for a brief second.
And once things are fixed, such homo sapiens are MIA (missing in action). And when things are working swell, more often than not, us humans are not motivated to take the time out of our day to help others and share the experience. Sucks for a hosting company but I noticed this time and time over again (I have been observing hosting companies for well over 15 years).
I see your point, but why we have the MIA from the host company side to answer “solved or we are investigating” and keep as is without any update and about people who complain about ticket leave open without answer for days I mean we don’t have the answer but you can see whats look like right if I am owner of this kind of business I think even with the worst service in the earth I will keep answered these posts just to show some respect for the people/customer.
I cannot recommend. Tried to sign-up and site says “Fraud check” (even before any paypal info was asked for) and to open support ticket. Opened ticket and they haven’t moved in 3 days. Page says they use IP address to check fraud, and I can assure you my work IP address is legit and has no problems at any other sites for years.
If they cannot sign-up new users, how can we expect them to run a VPS service.
Well, as soon as I posted this the folks at BigFoot approved my order and now there’s an active invoice. Nice. So now I’m going to pay it and see how my VPS performs.
Service is deplorable. Server goes down 5+ times a day. VPS plan was messed up from the start, they refused to assist unless i cancelled the paypal dispute. I cancelled it and the service is still complete crap.
and people accused me of being a horrible client for warning them about this horrible service… PayPal dispute is the way to go
Have you tried both locations ? After cancel the paypal dispute you can’t reopen again ?
going on 4~ hours of downtime… one response where they thought it was fixed a couple of hours ago and now nada. I should have known better than to put one of my production sites on here. I’ve lost a good bit of revenue because of this.
I will say that before now, smooth sailing. Easy to setup, easy to use, quick servers.
just about to buy this, noticed the comment are awful, changed my mind :)
Worst experience with it. I have created some VPS instances for 1GB RAM, and it turned to 100MB RAM after some days. Disputed through paypal and received refund less than 24 hours. Luckily good service with paypal.
what is kernel version?
Super fail service, super downtime, they were saying above 3 days money back policy. I am trying it now.
Even their own website is loading super slow. Nor recommanding this is over selling and downtime only
Pros:
They try
They are helpful for the most part
Very inexpensive
Cons:
Seems like once every 2 months the servers are down for the weekend.
Every couple weeks the servers seem to go down for 2-6 hrs
VPSs are restarted about once every week or two
You will get shutdown if CPU load avg is high for more than ~40 mins once every day or two.
Summary:
Seems like they are over populated for their resources/over sold. Server administration leave’s much to be desired. Probably ok for a non production server.
