Is the 100Mbps uplink dedicated? Are the CPU cores dedicated (I’m guessing not as it’s OpenVZ…) if not, what’s an acceptable load for the “Spring VPS 512MB” plan?
The uplink to the vm is not dedicated, you won’t find this anywhere as the NIC is being shared with other customers. The cabinet has 10G and the server has a 1Gbps port, which is never being saturated. It is always constantly being monitored by our staff, and we can always upgrade the server to 10G if needed.
RAM availability to the node is fulfilled with large DIMMs allowing us to allocate healthy RAM amounts to each container. The acceptable load to a container is expected to be less than 3. Though customer’s usage will fluctuate and we understand that. Customers running CPU extensive applications continuously are obviously are encouraged to purchase a dedicated server or spread the load throughout multiple vms (on separate host nodes of ours)
At the end of the day, we want you happy with what you purchased and others happy with the performance they receive within a shared platform.

Any money back guarantees on these? Really tempted, but the ping is a little high and throughput not as good as I’d want for the spring 1gb.
Glix, where are you testing from? The money back guarantee period is 3 days – feel free to give us a try :-).

Interested in a VPS for Windows, but looking for 2012R2 instead of 2008R2.
Not a lot of 2012R2 available out there…
I’d also like to know if you allow customers to load Windows Server 2012 R2 and use their own license, considering Windows Server 2008 R2 is now 7 years old and has limited support from Microsoft.
As of today we offer Windows Server 2012 with our Win VPS series, but for now it is available on request by opening a support ticket until we finalize 100%. this can be reinstalled for you on request for no additional charge as long as you have a Windows VPS server with us
Thanks for the listing, Ishaq! One thing I wanted to mention is that AlphaRacks now accepts Bitcoin/BTC as a form of payment, in addition to PayPal and Credit Cards (via 2Checkout). We completely realize the demand for virtual currency is growing, and AlphaRacks is committed to providing a variety of convenient payment methods for our customers.
Please let us know if anyone has any questions, we are here to answer – support@alpharacks.com
Julian
Added.
Thanks for doing that!
Don’t forget to open a support ticket after you have finished your order to DOUBLE your bandwidth allocation for free! As a reminder bandwidth resources are reset every month even on yearly plans :-).
Julian
hello julian,
I found that many options has been closed at your control pannel.
so,we have no options to reinstall OS ,no options to manage settings etc.
The functionality in the client area is limited. Please log into the SolusVM panel where you will find many more options and capabilities including reinstalling OS automatically (login details are in your welcome email)
Julian
hello Julia, I just signed up. How do I find the SolusVM panel as I need to point my domain to my new VPS. Thanks
hello julian, i order your vps on mei 24, and i forget to open support ticket for double bandwidth. can i request now?
Would you guys mind running a serverbear on a Spring VPS 4GB plan?
Thanks!

Any offers on anything smaller like 128 mb?
These are the best offers available, as a matter of fact our previous LEB (256MB) offer was more expensive than the 512MB offer here.
We went all out and provided some mad crazy deals for LEB this time :-) It doesn’t get any better than this, and these offers are only for a limited quantity / time. We plan on expiring these offers before Spring season is over or whenever we sell the certain quantity we planned on selling.
Once you have finished your order your price renewal will stay the same and will never increase, so here is your chance to secure the ludicrously low prices :-)

The test ip seems to be very slow for ChinaTelecom. Are you sure the network combines ChinaTelecom?
Yes, the network definitely combines CT (and CU too). Can you email me a traceroute so I can review your routes and forward the information to upstream provider to check? julian @ alpharacks.com

all operation we do on vps should open tickets?

it seems the ip of my vps is not good to China, but the test ip do
What you expect from LA to China, its other side of Earth:)
Dazeng, Our servers are hosted in Los Angeles and provide fairly decent ping to China for what it is. In fact, a good chunk of our customers are from that region :-)
Can you email me a traceroute so I can review your routes and forward the information to upstream provider to optimize the route? julian @ alpharacks.com
Don’t get cheated.
These guys are crook, I lost 2 vps in L.A, no ticket answers for 5 months, blocking every single port.
Again, I can show you proof, copied all the tickets,don’t get sucked into moshpit of lies, cheat, and fakes.
John, I am intrigued at your claims as they do not reflect or describe how AlphaRacks operates in any way. I just looked at our ticketing system statistics, and the average response time this month is 6 minutes, last month being 11 minutes. We are staffed 24/7 and internal policy for our staff members on shift is to keep response times under 15 minutes at all times. This is how we provide nearly instantaneous support and we also have multiple techs working on every shift. Speaking of which, since our support department is structured this way to provide quick responses to every ticket, we’re working on implementing automatic AJAX page reload on our ticketing page so clients are able to communicate with our staff as if it was IM (instant messenger) and see updates in real time without having to refresh the entire ticket page.
We also do not block any ports on our side, our VPS hosting comes with root privileges, which means clients who wish to do that may set up port filtering with iptables.
Please contact me, I’ll verify these claims and make sure your concerns are resolved. Hope to hear from you soon. julian @ alpharacks.com
title is misleading
no windows vps for 10 usd

Lying again, cheating, faking…worst human kind.
I’m sorry but I have yet to receive any form of communication from you. If you would like to share your current or past experiences then I’m here to help. Please contact me so I can verify your claims and apply a resolution, as I do not know who you are.
Julian
show the proof, I’d like to see before I give out my money….
For clarity, I still have *not* received any communication from “johnL.A” whatsoever so I cant address or verify these claims. Please take into consideration that when you are on a public blog like this, any one can post any comments about company A or company B and get away with it almost every time, especially when comments like this become hard from an administrator/moderator standpoint to check and verify.
I do want to mention that what he is describing is highly uncharacteristic of our service, we pride ourselves on our fast ticket response times of 15 minutes or less. Given the opportunity, I would like to learn more details about his case and amend the problem (if such exists).
Julian
I have been using them for a while now and can also verify that they respond to tickets in a timely manner, in fact the support is better than a lot of hosts who charge stupid amounts of money for these types of services.
I have been hosting with Alpharacks for about 2 years now and they do reply tickets in a timely fashion. As far as I’m concerned you can buy with confidence. The prices are unbeatable for what you get.
Luis, thank you very much for the positive comments, I’m so glad your experience is satisfactory. It’s always encouraging when customers acknowledge our work — I’ll pass your comments to the rest of the team too. In case of any assistance required, we are standing by!
Julian
Is the protection from Quadranet Vest standard @ 3Gbps?
Yes it is!
Hi Julian,
interesting offer. Is it possible to change the free bonus from double bandwith to a 1 Gbit/s connection with standard bandwith? Would be more interesting in my case as I don´t need more than 1 TB per month.
Please contact our sales dept at sales @ alpharacks.com, we may be able to do something for you.
Julian
I’m checking OS: are those Centos6/7 “minimal”? I’t prefer to have it that way, because full Centos installs a lot of crapware and it is not so easy to clean it…
We have a variety of minimal templates selection. You can reinstall your VPS to minimal templates in SolusVM :-).
I have been with these guys for more than a year now, I’m overall satisfied. We’ve had some problems in the past with e-mail delivery but they fixed it. The boxes are overall very stable. I have 27 boxes or so.
Glad you are enjoying your servers :-) Thanks Luis.
While I don’t agree with johnL.A.’s approach I, too, had a bad experience with this provider. Services became alomst unusable within a short period after purchase, and I never received a resopnse to my support ticket. I canceled the service after just 90 days.
Use at your own risk.
First of all, I’m wholeheartedly sorry that you had a not-so-pleasant experience with us during the time you used us. I searched your username in our system, and based on the distinct username, I’m assuming the account I pulled up was yours (correct me if I’m wrong). I see that the last time you were a customer of us was well over a year ago. We continuously strive to create the best possible hosting experience for our customers, and as a company, we are always looking to progress forward. We’ve been taking steps to do exactly that and have a lot of things have happened since you have last used us 1+ year ago. To name a few major events that have happened within that time period:
– We have acquired RIJX (another VPS provider) and merged its customer base and assets into AlphaRacks
– Introduced our new KVM VPS/Windows VPS product
– Introduced our new dedicated server series
– Overhauled our reseller and master reseller hosting series and added exclusive features for resellers
– “Near-Instantaneous Support” Added new technical staff members with an internal policy of keeping support ticket response times under 15 minutes
– DDoS protection being a free and standard feature to both current and new customers
We frequently conduct Customer Surveys to receive direct feedback from our customers so we know what we as a company can do to become better. For example, upon one of our recent surveys, we have seen requests for accepting Bitcoin/BTC payments, so we’ve started accepting Bitcoin as a form of payment about a week ago. And one of the things we’re currently working on is modifying our traditional ticketing system page to have auto-reload support with AJAX. As our average ticket response times are always within a matter of seconds or minutes, we noticed a trend of customers refreshing the ticketing page every few minutes, which is inevitably an inconvenience. With AJAX auto-reload, it will automatically update the ticket page in real-time as soon as a staff posts an update to the ticket, without the user having to refresh the ticket page. This allows for customers to treat our ticketing system as if it was Instant Messenger or a Live Chat, as they can always expect quick responses that resonate near-instantaneous support.
I would like to invite you back to AlphaRacks for any VPS on the house (for a year) to show you we’re serious about providing helpful customer service and dependable servers. Please send me an email directly at julian @ alpharacks.com I will be looking out for your email.
Nice offer and I’d order it immediatelly, but only 100mbit uplink? Come on guys, it’s 2016! One client with LTE-capable smartphone can saturate such a line. Give me 1gbit, and I’ll jump in…
In the order form where it says “Choose Product Addons” you can optionally upgrade to a 1Gbps Port for $1.50.
Yes, I noticed. I just think $11.5 for 512ram/512swap (with 1Gbit) does not make much sense, if there is 1024ram/1024swap for $14, with +1 vCPU, +5GB disk and +1TB transfer…
But otherwise very attractive offer!
Yes, it is worth mentioning that the only offer listed here that is 100Mbps would be the first plan, 512MB.
All other packages here are 1Gbps (by default)
These guys are legit. I have a vps with them. Just one to tinker around on. They respond quickly to any questions. I let my account get passed due (long story)They never charged me any kind of late fee or reinstatement fee after emailing them about my service being terminated (for not paying) and if i could get it back on. Took them less then 15 minutes to have it all back up and running after I paid my current balance which again included no late/termination/reinstatment fee.
Thank you Josh. It’s always our pleasure to help. Please feel free to reach out to us in case of any further assistance required.
Hi,
Can we run VPN services (private, not open) in your openvz containers ?
Do you enable all PPP required modules ?
Thanks!
Yes, we support TUN/TAP/PPP, all of the required modules to run VPN services.
Good technology
As soon as I paid via Paypal,
The VPS is Ready for use.
The fatest setup speed I have ever seen.
Thank you for signing up! Yes, instant set up. If you need any assistance, we are standing by

Hi Leic,
I am from Shanghai and my broadband provider is China Unicom.
I am interested in the ip you listed , is it a testing ip or your vps ip that alpharack assigns to you.
It looks pretty good, but a friend of mine currently is having a 3.99 package from alpharack too. His vps ip is 155.254.49.XX, the ping result is not as good as yours.
And apparently , from my side, the route is quite different to 104.223.25.XX and 155.254.49.XX
@Julian, I’d like to buy a $14 package ,before that would you please confirm which ip range would assign to customer ?
my question about title still remains to be answered
The prices in this LEB listing are accurate and you can go to the order form to verify it too. these offers are only for a limited quantity / time. This is *not* just a one time or first billing cycle discount… Once you have finished your order your price renewal will stay at the same rate and will never increase, for as long as you keep it.
The Linux VPS offers begin at just $9.99 per year, while the Windows VPS plan is $6.85 per month. The difference in cost for Windows is because of licensing costs necessitated with providing Windows VPS hosting.
As of today we also offer Windows Server 2012 with our Win VPS series, but for now it is available on request by opening a support ticket until we finalize 100%
Julian
Hi Julian, I have just order the Spring VPS 512MB, and pay via credit card, but my invoice keep say UNPAID, please help..
2Checkout takes a few moments to approve credit card payments. Once they approve it, our system will automatically mark the invoice as PAID.
DDoS Protected Linux & Windows VPS starting @ $9.99/year – Los Angeles, USA
is misleading,sir
I don’t realize what is misleading about it. It does its job as a title by providing a brief overview of the offer we are giving, with the finer details of each package within the post itself.
The prices are accurate and you can look at the post, we have a VPS offer exclusive to LEB for $9.99/year here without any extra hidden fees.. no set up fees or anything like that.
If you still feel otherwise for some reason, then you should directly contact LEB administration at https://lowendbox.freshdesk.com/ and suggest a revision for a title change :-)
Thank you for your feedback
Julian

Hi Julian,
I am spending around $70 / year on a shared hosting for couple of my websites. I think Spring VPS 1GB for $14.00/year sounds pretty good to me but will I get cPanel along with it? Do you guys help on migration? If yes, how much do you charge for migrating my website to the VPS? Where is the server located? Please advise.
cPanel/WHM is not a free control panel, so it’s not included with our VPS, it is a cost that we must pay for too. The cost for a cPanel/WHM VPS License is $15/month
Free installation is provided on any control panel you purchase through us. Please contact us if you have any questions or would like to order a control panel for your service.
There are also many free control panels out there that you can use as an alternative to cPanel, off the top of my head here are some free/open source control panels: Webmin, Kloxo-MR, ZPanel CP, Vesta, Sentora, Ajenti
Our servers are located in Los Angeles, USA.
If you are looking for a shared hosting product instead of a VPS, take a look at our Reseller Hosting specials, it allows you to create unlimited cPanel accounts. https://www.alpharacks.com/ResellerSpecials/
Julian
Many thanks for the reply. I am not a programmer and I don’t want to hire a programmer as this is recently developed website and I just need it to perform well – I thought that VPS is a good option. Will you guys install Webmin on the VPS? I just need a simple interface for managing the website.
And What is the usage memory I get? I know that the OS and other stuffs on the VPS consumes some memory though. Or can you suggest something like a cloud for hosting PHP website – do you offer any?
It sounds like a shared or reseller hosting would be better suited for your needs rather than a VPS, as you’re just looking to host some websites. You can see our current Reseller and Master Reseller Hosting specials here: https://www.alpharacks.com/ResellerSpecials/
Julian
Despite an attractive price, the settings of the servers by the panel are not automatic, to set the “PTR” I had to send ticket, although is present on the panel, some servers are on the blacklist, and received some threats administrator called Julian J. (JJ), even without sending anything like spam. I do not think having my privacy respected.
I just purchased the spring vps 1gb $14.00 a year plan and was setup in minutes. Submitted the support ticket for double the bandwidth and within minutes went from 2tb in the solusVm panel to 4tb bandwidth.
This is my first vps plan and so far I am thrilled with AlphaRacks. I don’t know shit about vps stuff, but I’m gonna learn. $14.00 a year is awesome with Ddos protection.
It don’t get any better than this.
Thanks Leo! In case you need any assistance, we will be standing by!
Do you support 2nd level quota? And can we use vpn? Ppp tun/tap enable?
Thanks..
Sure, we can enable second level quotas. TUN/TAP and PPP can be enabled instantly in your SolusVM panel so you can use VPN.
Julian
i have a debit card how can i checkout with debit card, and i don’t have a paypal account.
You can pay via 2Checkout
Hello! I’m interested in buying a $10/year VPS. Will I have access to phpmyadmin without buying a cPanel license?
Sure, you can install phpMyAdmin.
Does it take additional costs for installing phpMyAdmin?
phpMyAdmin is free software – you can install with some commands in SSH
For example in Ubuntu it would be as simple as running:
apt-get -y install apache2 php5 mysql-server
apt-get -y install phpmyadmin
sudo ln -s /etc/phpmyadmin/apache.conf /etc/apache2/conf-available/phpmyadmin.conf
sudo a2enconf phpmyadmin
service apache2 restart
Then phpMyAdmin will be available at http://ServerIP/phpmyadmin/
Thanks! :)
i have a debit card how can i checkout??
Debit cards can be processed with 2Checkout.
Here’s a bench test from http://bench.sh for the 1GB ram VPS.
https://paste.ssamjh.net/view/raw/1cd47956
Having some network issues but so far the CPU has been very good.
i was skeptical with johnL.A’s comments. Julian said customer replies are within 15 minutes, but i’m afraid that’s not true. I opened a pre-sale ticket (#683697) and it’s been over 15 hours (and not minutes) and still NO Answer. So, i’m left to believe johnL.A.
Pre-Sales is *not* equal to Support. We believe in taking care of our current customers – that always comes first. Technical Support and Administration Departments are 24x7x365, no matter what holiday or time it is, they will be there to help our customers. As you can tell from the comments others have posted, our support always responds within minutes, and any AlphaRacks customer can back us up on that.
The Pre-Sales department availability, just like most USA-based companies, was sporadic due to the Memorial Day holiday. We’re back to normal now, and pre-sales inquiries are being responded to. You will receive a response soon.
Question for Julian or associates: I like the specs of your plans and I’m considering switching from my current VPS host to you guys but I’m a Fedora user and I notice you’re using a rather outdated Fedora template which is no longer supported (Fedora 17) – Would it be possible to get a VPS using one of the newer Fedora VPS templates (e.g. Fedora 22 or higher)? I wouldn’t mind if it had to be requested through a support ticket, I’m just wondering if it’s possible at all.
We can install Fedora 23. For the moment, request it with a support ticket and we’ll have it done right away! We’re working on finalizing the automatic installation process for Fedora before we can make that template available for everyone.
Julian
i just buy the 1GB plan.
i wonder why the ssh command is so slow even just to execute simple command like apt-get install to setup new server. and it took me 1 minute just to create 1 mysql database. webload is also slow
@julian, maybe you can help me check my vps?
Didta, I checked all of our VPS nodes and monitoring servers, and I am not seeing any abuse or unusual activity on any of our servers. We will need to look into your specific VPS and see what the issue is.
Have you contacted our tech support department for help? If not please submit a ticket to Support department or email support@alpharacks.com, a support tech will respond to you in minutes, we’re always standing by (we provide near instantaneous support, around the clock)
Julian
thank for the reply julian,
things were different when i wrote the comment.
i have submitted a ticket and your support is good. i got reply within minutes
Are you still happy?
I just bought a $9.99 box and it took the money from my Paypal but the invoice shows up as unpaid and I can’t access anything. I’m having a bad feeling about this…
Simon, your PayPal payment is showing as unauthorized/reversed from our side. I responded to your support ticket.

Is Ubuntu 16.04 available as an OS right now with AlphaRacks?
Not yet! this will be coming up next.
Is Ubuntu 16.04 available as an OS?
Ordered on 12.05.2016 and payed with paypal for 1 month.
Today (5.6.2016) my service is already canceled and alpharacks demands the payment for the 12.06.2016!
You still owe me 7 days of service! i mean thats a week….
I couldn’t find your account. Can you email me your account username? julian @ alpharacks.com
I have some questions regarding – https://www.alpharacks.com/myrack/cart.php?a=confproduct&i=2
1) Does this qualify for the 2x monthly bandwidth with a support ticket?
2) Does it include the QuadraNet Vest DDoS protection?
1. All 4 offers listed on this post qualify for double bandwidth for free.
2. Yes.
is debian 8.x available as os templates?
Yes, Debian 8.x is available as OS template, you can reinstall to it in SolusVM panel.
Julian
Bought spring 1 GB package. The server was a bit slow at the beginning, filed a support ticket, answered in a short time. Now everything runs well. My website is already set up and running. Thanks for a great service. I hope the service runs well for the whole year
Thank you for signing up :-). In case of any further assistance you may require, we are standing by!
Julian
Instead of double the bandwidth? Can it be replaced with 5GB of storage for Spring VPS 512MB USD9.99/year? Thanks.
Please contact our sales dept at sales @ alpharacks.com, we will see what we can do to help!
Julian
do you have a refund policy?
do you have a refund policy
Yes, the money back guarantee period is 3 days.
Julian
worst vps ever
definitely not for production website
We work hard to offer a high-caliber hosting service that is suitable for production-uses, and I’m sorry that we didn’t meet your expectations. Please contact me directly at julian @ alpharacks.com and I will investigate the concern you raised.
Julian
It’s sad to say, but this VPS is very very very slow. I have just a simple Ghost website and most of the time it does’t work, cause Nginx timeouts. Your technical support is very quick and every time I wrote a problem about slowness, they solved it, but I cannot open a ticket about slowness every two days. I’ll ask for a refund.
Agreed.. Really slow, sometimes nginx just spit out timeout error. Yes, it’s a really cheap VPS, but don’t know that it’s going to be like this slow.
Can we ask for a refund for a case like this?
Tweaking nginx to work perfectly the first time can be tricky to some. Have you tried switching the web server to Apache or LiteSpeed to precisely identify where the issue lies (within VPS or web server software)?
Please contact me at julian @ alpharacks.com with a temporary log-in to your VPS and I will gladly provide you with some pointers after analyzing your existing configuration.
Julian
I must admit that your support is a First Class support: the answer is always very quick. It seems that now finally the problem with the slowness is gone. I think that the nginx configuration has no issues, because it follows the instruction provided by Ghost team and moreover I had been using the same setup in another VPS for 4 months without a timeout and without a reboot. Now I’m a happy customer and I hope service will remain unchanged for the future.
Hi, I am staff of a BNC provider.
I am wondering if I can run ZNC on this?
Thanks!
We do not have any objections to you running ZNC on our VPS’s :-).
Julian
Ah, okay, thank you!
Will buy the VPS once I can.

hi Julian, I find it difficult to register successfully. I’ve tried several VPS providers here before yours and each time i register, the service i registered is usually flagged as fraud. I have encountered this issue in over 3 different VPS providers and AlphaRacks is the third and I got same response too.
i am willingly to patronise you if you’ll show me step by step on how to successfully setup the VPS server account.
If your order is being flagged as fraud in the system then it is triggering something with MaxMind. You can open a ticket to our Billing dept. for a manual review, and we can override MaxMind’s decision if we decide to approve your order.

What happen if my VPS has load > 1 && < 2 in 24/7/365 (1 GB plan)?
Hello,
I am staff of a BNC provider, am I allowed to run ZNC on here?
Thank you very much! ;)
No problem, you can run ZNC on our servers.
Julian
here is some benchmark result
the I/O speed is average but the network speed is something you can laugh about.
I think there are a few things still need to let everyone know
1, the response time will certainly be more than 15 minutes, the recovery time after six hours? Ticket # 145659;
2, feel free to stop your vps, and the reasons given do not know what to say is;
3, in two days to stop using my vps twice. The first unexplained offline 18 minutes response, six hours after the resumption, the second time to say because I have a vps connection to the Amazon, but they do not allow such a connection. I do not understand why this is.

Eradicate lowendbox recommendation, I bought alpharockd of vps.
1, response time must exceed 15 minutes. Perhaps the previous month can in 15 minutes;
2, after the shutdown issue support tickets, six hours after recovery;
3, the service is unstable, after a month later, two days down twice;
4, the staff technical abilities, to answer puzzling and anger. (Leonard P.)
i cant access the vps since last night. poor service.
Very good recommendation
I have been using this service for a couple years now, starting with RIJX before they were acquired by AlphaRacks. Since the acquisition I have had several issues including being locked out of the VPS as well as the control panel (e.g. VPS was shut down and control panel could not start it up), and having the VPS shut down without explanation, without notification, and without any attempt to reboot the VPS. I would strongly recommend looking for another provider, as AlphaRacks has been the worst VPS provider I have used.
Hello Julian! I am looking for a new host and you guys seem perfect! It is easy to read through the BS and spam hate posts and timestamps show that oyu really like to put customer service int he forefront. My question is this:
The last VPS I had set the resolution to 1024×768 and would not allow me to make it any larger no matter what. Is this true of your servers as well? Thank you in advance.
Short answer: You can set the resolution to anything you want.
With our Windows VPS, you can set the resolution in your Remote Desktop client before initiating the RDP session.
With our Linux VPS, you can install VNC with a “GUI” and configure the VNC settings at any resolution you like.
Julian
I am very cautious with AlphaRacks. I have a couple of VPS’s and 2 reseller accounts. for months now I have had to deal an issue where not only would sites load incredibly slowly, but would drop off several times a day. my uptime monitor would do nuts notifying me of the sites going offline. To top this off I’ve had to deal with support that simply gave me scripted answers that claim the issue was fixed yet it would appear again. My support ticket for this current complaint has been dragging on since July!
As a result I have to use other hosts to run these sites as it’s just too unreliable.
so Julian, if you are reading this my support ticket is #809733

I am a new customer of AlphaRacks and I was referred to you from Lowendbox.com. I saw you had a great deal running, however I was confused as to whether a windows install would come with the package I wanted. I read through the comments section and found a quote from you (Julian) stating that all of the servers listed came with windows. Still a bit weary and hoping for clarification I sent in a pre-purchase ticket (Ticket ID: 796538) asking if windows would be included on the exact package I specified and was told by “Leonard” that it absolutely did come with windows, so I placed my order.
After placing the order there was no way to put windows on the box. I sent in another ticket (Ticket ID: 991501) explaining that I had two sources saying that I would get windows and unfortunately I did not have access to it, and that this is specifically what I was trying to avoid. “Leonard” responded that Alpharacks provides other servers with windows, I should upgrade.
This isn’t only false advertising, you have specifically lied to a new customer twice. Your company sold me promises only to forget those promises when I actually gave you my money. I am emailing this to you and posting it as a warning to all future purchasers on Lowendbox.com
Hello all, I wanted to leave an update. Their service is quick, I will give them that. I had a response in about twenty minutes flat. Unfortunately the response was curt and insulting, specifically blaming me for this problem and saying that I didn’t read the offer correctly. Services terminated and refund (hopefully) incoming. I have plenty of screenshots of this exchange, where I was SPECIFICALLY told i would be given certain services for certain prices and then was denied after they took my money, if anyone wants them. Buyer beware.
Another update, “Julian” who sent me the rather curt email about immediately cancelling and refunding has neither cancelled my service nor refunded my money as he said had already happened. Even the “3 day money back garauntee is a lie. Folks please learn from my mistakes, Alpharacks is a scam. They will be nice and supportive until they get your money and then good luck getting anything at all. I will leave another reply in a few days with an update.
Last update, I was contacted by “Julian” again telling me that they processed the return on my third request. I just received an email from the payment processing site saying I did receive the refund. However “Julian” has sent me several more emails telling me I need to change the posts I made here on LEB, painting them in a better light. When I told him I would not he countered with explaining line by line how he feels I am responsible for this mess. Again buyer beware, very glad to be done with this company.
Another update, I have exchanged all of my information with Alpharacks, I have done as they asked and cancelled the recurring service with 2CO AND provided a specific item order number to the payment you took from me without asking and the good folks at Alpharacks are STILL refusing to give me a refund. I am now going to do a chargeback on my credit card company and let your legal wizards handle it. I absolutely can not believe that I have had over two months of BS from this company over a $7 charge.
Josh, you ordered a Linux VPS, not a Windows VPS. AlphaRacks provides both types of VPS hosting services: Linux and Windows types. We occasionally run special promotions on both types of offerings, and in this LEB post we have both Linux and Windows VPS specials.
This LEB post which you ordered from shows two different types of offers: Linux and Windows.
As you ordered the wrong product, I issued a full refund for you – no questions asked.
Julian
Sir, I came to your company as a newer VPS user asking legitimate questions SPECIFICALLY stating that I did not know if the package i linked by number coantained windows options. Your tech support replied to me twice that it WOULD include windows. I understand you feel this is completely my fault, you have made that aware to myself and the rest of us, but to say that you cancelled my order and refunded my money “no questions asked” is just a lie. I had to specifically ask you and your company to stop contacting me because you refused to let it go, issue my refund, and move on; you wanted me to admit that I am at fault.
Josh, we will have to agree to disagree. I have the pre-sales ticket loaded up here which shows you linked to this very LEB post which has both Windows and Linux types of VPS offerings. The Windows VPS special is outlined under “Windows VPS Offer:”
In any case, we still issued you a full refund as you ordered the wrong product – there’s nothing more to discuss. Thank you,
Julian
Hello again Julian! Even though you personally cancelled and refunded my money now I am being billed again a month later against my permission. I don’t even have access to your site anymore, not even a server with your company, but you are yet again charging me. I plan to call your customer support in a moment to get this straightened out but I wanted to let prospective new customers know that this company has not only lied to me and treated me like crap, but now a month after I ended service with them they reactivated payment. Worst VPS I’ve ever dealt with.

I went to order via btc, and it tripped your fraud detection and won’t let me proceed with my order. Possibly because my order is placed via a vpn? I’d suggest removing the ip flagging for bitcoin orders, as many people that will be using BTC as a payment method do it as they’d like to not disclose their personal information (ip, name, payment details) and you will lose many customers this way.
Please provide me with your order number and I will approve it.
Sorry for the inconvenience.

The Washington data center for SafeHouse Cloud has been unreachable for days. I think it’s dead. Can’t access, restart or reload anything.
You have us confused with the wrong LEB post, we are not SafeHouse Cloud.

Can I get more than – 20x IPv6 (free on request)?
Hello. We wanted to create VPN server for 4 users. Open VPN or L2tp- haven’t decided yet. Could you clarify if we can order Spring VPS 512MB for this purpose? Can we use it for 4 VPN connections at the same time? Thanks in advance…

Do not hire the service of this company, I was their client and on November 1st they lost the data of my VPS because of a RAID array corruption issue occurred on the server. And they had no backup of the lost data. Then I canceled my subscription with a few months missing from my annual plan to have no more future problems.
Never buy from this company. Agreeing to their terms means you do not get a refund. I understand that policy, but they also agreed to give me a server that worked. After multiple support tickets and replies with “should be fixed now” I have stopped using their servers. Save your money, go somewhere else.
Totally agree and true!
Don’t buy anything from this company, even it’s a $1 !!!

Once every few weeks my servers with alpharacks goes offline.
The offline status usually lasts half an hour or a few hours.
If you’re not using it for something that needs to be online all the time, it’s fine.
Guys, be aware that Alpharacks is suspending services for not apparent reason (on a quick online search seems im not the only once). Once I complained about the suspended service, they just respond with some nonsense log (normal connections).
For 4 days the service was down and they stop responding.
I opened a pay pal conflict .. and the next day they terminated the service, sent me a email saying the termination was due to not paying ( it was paid until 2018) but they changed the dates…
Not to mentioned that the speed/bandwidth they say they offer is total BS.
I have the screenshots to prove.
For those who will get any of their services… well good luck.
Great deal , I will defiantly give a try
