The LowEndTalk community has been abuzz with concern over HostSolutions, a popular host based in Romania. They’re well-known for their spectacular, low-priced offers. We recently interviewed Marius, HostSolutions’ owner.
News broke of troubling financial filings and many users reported their VMs are offline for a significant period of time.
However, this was not a universal experience, and @jsg shared word that HostSolutions was battling a storage issue.
The situation is not clear and to date, HostSolutions’ representatives have not commented. We wish Marius and his operation well and hope issues are swiftly resolved.
