Hello all! I haven’t been around that long, so maybe this has happened before, but it hasn’t occurred in the time that I’ve been here, so I’ll call this something new.
A while back we posted an offer from YourLastHost (you can find the offer here), and let’s just say that it was met with mixed reviews. As I mentioned before, I’m new to this community, but what I do know is that it’s difficult to run any small business. Sometimes you think you’ve got everything figured out and you’re ready to launch – and then everything just falls apart. I’m a firm believer in the value of learning from experiences, especially failure.
I’m going to let what Justin sent in speak for itself:
Short Bio:
YourLastHost was founded March 2016 and focused primarily in the LowEnd market. We are particularly proud to offer many features that cannot often be offered by many LowEnd companies, including 24/7 support, a 90-day money back guarantee, RAID-10 disks and dual processor nodes.
Changes/More Info:
After we were first listed on LowEndBox, we knew that we loved the community, but we also knew that we had some substantial changes to make, in order to ensure that customers really do have a positive experience with us. So, we took some time to regroup, and now we have prepared a re-launch of YourLastHost, specifically addressing and fixing past issues.
Improved Support
We have increased our support availability to be 24/7/365, and we are now offering live chat support during the business day.
New Locations
YourLastHost is now operating out of three distinct locations, France, Jacksonville, and Los Angeles. With such a diverse set of options, your customers are never far away from us.
Continuous Server Monitoring
We have written and thoroughly tested new scripts paired with our 24/7 NOC staff to proactively measure and correct high loads on our nodes.
Coming back to YLH?
For customers who were once YourLastHost clients and are interested in giving us a second try, they can contact us via the client area and have a 3-month credit applied to any unmanaged VPS, shared, or reseller hosting service.

-500GBPS of DDoS Protection available in Jacksonville for just $5/m per protected IP

Hi Lucas,
I definitely can understand why you would say this, and rest assured we are going to be rolling out a KVM solution in the near future. Keep your eyes out here and on LET. We’re confident that our future product will be of interest. :)

This MTR from “florida” appears to actually start somewhere in Nevada. What should be sub 70 ms to Costa Rica is way higher cause the server doesn’t appear to actually be in FL.

Hi Hacktek,
It looks like you are trace routing an incorrect IP address, please use the following:
23.239.85.2
Thanks,

Not sure what you mean? The above came from the FL looking glass.
Yeah, seeing some weird asymmetrical routing from one of my servers, too. I get 77 ms ping times and a circuitous route between FL and NY when using https://www.yourlasthost.com/LookingGlass-FL/ but I get 25 ms pings and a more direct route when using http://lg.as19531.net/ (which I assume is at the same location?).
It seems that the looking glass is acting up a bit. For now, feel free to use the test IP address 23.239.85.2 which shouldn’t show any odd routing. I will look into any issues with the looking glass

U-512 wrong order link, and how to select location during order?
Hi Steven,
Sorry for the inconvenience, please use the following link instead:
https://clients.yourlasthost.com/cart.php?a=add&pid=74
By default it is Los Angeles, California DC, but please add the location you want us to deploy too in a Notes while placing an order.
Thanks,

Paid for U-1536, get offline not working VPS, and now site is down. Lol.
So what now?
Their site seems to be working for me just fine.
Here’s the direct link to support: https://clients.yourlasthost.com/submitticket.php?step=2&deptid=3
Hello,
There was an issue with a freshly provisioned node where the VPS were not booting properly but were created on the server. This issue has since been resolved.
Since you haven’t provided a name or order information, I am not able to find your account, but I do trust that you have been in communication with our 24/7 support staff. Please reach out to our support desk (ask that the ticket be sent to Justin or George) and we can provide you some sort of compensation for this issue. It is definitely no fun to get a VPS and to find that it isn’t even online!
Regards,
Justin

Site down again. HTTP works but HTTPS times out so I can’t do anything or even send a ticket.
Hello,
There were some networking issues relating to the server hosting our corporate site. No client sites were ever affected. According to the DC, there was a failing PSU in the rack’s switch that the DC techs didn’t spot yesterday when they ran a backup connection. The rack was brought back online this morning, and we have been monitoring the site performance.
Got U-512 for one month, can I later continue with $12/year offer on same server? And what exactly “1.5 TB Traffic” in this offer means, since there is “1 TB Bandwidth” limit?
Also, there https://lowendbox.com/blog/yourlasthost-2gb-openvz-39yr-and-plus-free-web-hosting/ February 28, 2017 Justin said that legal adult content is allowed.
On YLH Acceptable use https://www.yourlasthost.com/acceptable-use.php adult content is under “Prohibited uses”
Policy was changed since February?
Hi Alex,
Yes, if you get the U-512 as originally monthly, you can change the billing cycle to get the $12/yr offer. Also, regarding the 1.5TB traffic, it looks like the plan text on our website didn’t match (now corrected), but all VPS do have the proper resource allocations. If you would like us to do a quick audit to ensure you’re getting the resources promised, please just file a ticket and ask for it to be flagged to Justin.
Regards,
Justin

Do you have the ability to offer IPv6 IPs?
Specifically in the OVH/France datacenter?
Hello,
Yes we do offer IPv6 out of OVH/France.
I am interested in an u1536. I want to run csf firewall on it.
Does the shared kernel has all these ip modules?

I subscribed one of these offers “U-1536”, but I was given a different VPS. Not with 2Gb of ram, but with 1.5Gb and instead of 2x 2.40GHz processors, the VPS has 1 x 3.80GHz.
I feel cheated, so be careful.
Aggghhhh I had the same thing happen to me! I wish I’d read your comment before ordering. I have opened a ticket, so we’ll see what happens.
