How is this, is that like normal price or cheap price or toooooo cheap price ?
btw i read some reviews about it, and people say you get what you paid for

[XeonGX]

thanks guys

this will get added to the list of threads i write that no one replys

:P

[Duport]

You use this amount of disk space and bandwidth for your website?

- 110 GB Space
- 1110 GB Bandwidth

[XeonGX]

how much is this at reguler hosts


how strange
thats like a whole dedicated server but with only Cpanel

if this was a reseller i will sure take it :P

[Host4Cheap]

Take my Advice since i am a former Client of Servage, you are wating your Money.

This resell like hell. Try using 1% of what they promise and your account shall be suspended because of using too many CPU Resources. Read their TOS and AUP and you will find some nice clauses to back them off. The Control Panel doesnt even have a Backup Solution to it.

PLEASE Dont waste your money like i did. Anyway you are not gonna use 110GB or 1110GB in any case.

After i got ripped of my Servage i started getting interested in hosting :) <<snip>>

[ezXEN]

not impossible just not feesable at that price :)

[Host4Cheap]

Yup, hehe :P looks like i got carried away ;)

[fedlerner]

WTFFF!?!?!?!
It looks REALLY REALLY the same as a website in which i was going to signup, but i don't really know now..
http://www.spacage.com

What do you think.
Almost the same things they have.. .:S

Scam???

[fedlerner]

Now that i see spaceage maybe is a reseller of servage.net
What do you think?

[Host4Cheap]

Yes he is a reseller. Check this out
http://www.dnsstuff.com/tools/dnstime.ch?name=spacage.com&type=A

[XeonGX]

so all ya ppl trying to tell me

servage sucks


please correct me if im wrong

[Host4Cheap]

SURE DOES if you want 110GB Space and 1110GB Bandwidth :lol:

But if you want normal thats is 3-4GB Space and 50GB Bandwidth a Month than it rocks :) But keep in mind they have a Custom Control Panel which personally i dont like compared to cPanel. It doesnt even as a backup solution attached to it. For backing up files you will need to do via FTP which shall take Ages. :)

[winger]

Take this from me,
I'm currently with servage..
Pros:
No downtime at all.
Even if there is one,it's like once in a year. An hour or so.

Cons:
You're not given what you're promised 110GB space and 1TB B/W..
Use like 20% of it, see how fast you get suspended.
The support is careless. They don't give heed to their customers.
They just say,you got suspended 'cos you used much resources.Then they reply nothing.

And the servers are slow.
well, I guess I can give servage this award..
The BEST SUPER-OVERSELLER AROUND
Much worse than site ground.
And the so called clustered panel leaves you clueless.

[fedlerner]

Really is so bad? I was going to host my site there :(

[Host4Cheap]

Yes it bad, it is bad especially the support. I dunno but i think only Servage : Patricia knows what is really happening. She would reply after 24 hours usually and still it wont help you much.

[XeonGX]

so by 20% means like 20GB space and 222GB bandiwdth ????

[winger]

Even lesser.

[Technics]

Someone needs to tell Yahoo to close it's Data Centers and buy a few account's with this company ... Think i'll shut down my backup server which uses more bandwidth and electricity than the cost of that package.

[fedlerner]

In the website it tells you.
You can use 37GB per day. If you don't pass that aproximately they won't suspend it.
A 31 days month allows you 1147GB.
A 28 days month allows you 1036GB.

I don't really know if it's good or not :(
I was going to buy a "Reseller plan" :(

[Host4Cheap]

LOL but when they suspend you they will not say that you used more than the alloted bandwidth.

The reason they will tell you will be Abuse of "CPU Resources" or more than specified hits which i dont remember.

[XeonGX]

ic this is overselling,

they should sticky a thread with all knowen overselling hosts, just so no one signs up with them

[XeonGX]

charging my credit card, sounds like canaca.ca

well thanks for telling me that


i can feel how it would be like charging my CC and not canceling some hosting plans that i cant use


:tired2:

[winger]

They tell you, " You've used way much CPU resources that's slowing down the server,so you're suspended " that's it.. nothing more.

[.Joe.]

Yeah, Canaca looks even worse :p

[dymo310]

SERVAGE will DELETE or SUSPEND any acount that have some traffic or use some of the storage space. they DO NOT have 110GB for each user that buy that space. SERVAGE is a hox and one of the WORST companies i have ever done business with.

SERVAGE deleted approx 70GB of my MP3 material, and claimed it was illegal. why? because they "had reason to belive so". all material was bought and paid by me - and they wanted the receipts!!!

so, with their head stuck up their ---, the will now be dued by my german lawyers. not because of the money, but because of the way the are acting. i will take this company to the cleaners and sue for damages and compensation - and then some

stay away from SERVAGE - the worst hoster ever!!!

:devious2:

[OnHost-CT]

hmmm..... 110GB space, 1110GB Bandwidth. Would you use up that much space and bandwidth? I dont think so!

So take my advice and go with a host that offers a nice 2-5 GB space, 30-50 GB bandwidth because you probally only need that much.

But if you need 110GB Space and 1110GB bandwidth, my advice would be to go with a dedicated server or find a host that offers this much, but at a reasonable price.

[dEOS]

I recommend you use Fuzion Servers, I'm with them too. I considered going to servage too..
add me on MSN and I'll explain it :)

I was with servage for a year (the account is still there, but my friend uses it now), and the speed and uptime has been excellent. The support was alright. They were nice, but they seemed sort of clueless to me as their answers were always so vague.

As for suspending your accounts when you reach 10% or 20% (whatever), I dunno. I had a lot of songs and video files on there with people downloading them, but the account is still there. So, eh, no comment. :/

well, if it took more than 2 months to get a good review then I guess he didin't go for it :P

[TheHostHunter]

I'm just wondering what kinds of scripts people who were suspended for using "too many resources" were running. I know that there are a lot of crappy scripts out these days that will bring a server to its knees because of the poor design, but did anyone get in trouble while running a solid script like VBulletin?

[Darknight]

I have read a few bad reviews on these guys,

that price is just a very light legal scam

Its called overselling and if you ever used that much space they would find a reason to remove you as a client!:beer:
The best thing you can do for your site and visitors is get a plan of only what you need off one of these guys here and pay the same
What companys like this rely on is people like you to buy there bullcrap plans and not use what you dam well paid for!
:P

[oZestretch]

I have been with servage for 2 years now, 3 months ago i started a reseller account with them, over a 2 month period i slowly moved my 7 sites from my original account to my reseller account, original account was deactivated 2 days ago.

so yes, 2 years, happy with them for what i paid, not as good as a Cpanel host but i wrote a few scripts to backup and few other things so was all good. Yes, speed was like a 512kb connection (i have 6.4mb connection) but thats ok... ftp would timeout often, but i put up with it.

so far i sound like you could drive a car over me and i'd applogise to you.....

So what would make search for servage disputes on google?
Why create an account on this site just to say the above?

<insert really bad words here>

Those baboons that run servage have announced the reseller as being 'discontinued' with no set date and to add, no customer support will respond to questions as of this time.

Where does this leave me.. now 8 sites, using only a few gb of bandwidth a month and maybe 200mb storage. If these fools think I will give them my NEW card details, they are more naive than I first thought! even more naive than i was when i signed up with them!!!

I notice some posts on this site were edited, assume where they posted alternate hosts.

If someone here can point me in the direction of a host where i can have multiple domains, please help me.

Just to make this even better, i found the above out on Australia Day of all days (yea, i am a skippy)

[y01tzkev]

Servage is bad...

FTP Speed is maxed out at 50kbps so don't plan on uploading much to the webspace because it will take forever and it will often time out.

They say they have very high speeds but when I contacted them about the FTP issue, they simply said that there's nothing wrong on their side. Sure, blame it on the customer. How come I can upload at 200kbps to other servers?

I made a huge mistake becoming a reseller for them because after the first month. They had a lot of downtime that month because of their optic fibers being cut. Their control panels were very inconvenient. Their reseller control panel do not update. It's been showing the same balance for weeks. With the reseller account, a customer wanted to copy their files to their second account so I asked the customer support to do it but they said they won't do it because too many people ask them to do it. What kind of attitude is that? Very unprofessional tech support.

Downloads would also time out if a lot of users were downloading simultaneously. Their bandwidth is measured daily and not monthly. So basically you have 37GB of bandwidth per day. Highest I've reached was 27GB.

The only pros to this host were that the MySQL and PHPMyAdmin were updated.

After the Servage nightmare:
So now I switched over to Netfirms since they had a deal for $10 a year and they aren't that great either. Outdated PHPMyadmin and mySQL. Decent space/bandwidth, probably overselling too. I had to report to tech support about their SSH because it wasn't working. It just didn't allow me to run any MySQL commands from SSH. But $10 for 2 free domains with access to DNS settings and other options = worth it. for now...Might run into future problems :(

Bob, traffic and hits are diffrent things. What hits have to do with traffic a generate?
My website is lyrics website with albums catalogue which links to external sites with legal mp3 downloads.

The question is : Can you make exeption and not suspend account every day? Acording to your info, you gus have "powerfull cluster" systems. So the hits ammount doesnot need to be issue.


I already found another hoster which have no limits for hits, so if your answer is "no", I supose I'll move my domains from your hosting soon.

Hello Konstantine,

Please note that each Servage account is allowed upto 400,000 hits per day. This is a generic mail send to the owners to notify him that he is nearing the hit count limit for the day. This mail is sent so that the webmaster is aware of the issue and so that he can take necessary measures and the website never gets tripped off. You will need not worry about the mail unless your account exceeds the hit count limit.

Thank you for your understanding.

Hello Support,

We disscussed it already with you but the problem still exists.

Why I have so many hits?

I enabled Hotlink Protection long time ago, but it does not helps!
How can we solve the problem?



We have noticed that your account is using many server resources
at the moment. The hours your account has had 311787
requests for your site which is quite allot. We will have to ask
you take measures to lower the load or we may be forced to temporarily
suspend your website.

We hope that we do not need to take such drastic measures but
it may be necessary to ensure good performance for other
customers on the cluster. I'm sure that you understand our
commitment to provide the best possible service to all customers.

Hello,

My website lyricstemple.com and all subdomains are not longer available few days. As far I can see some path problem on your side. Please fix it ASAP.

Before you suspend account you have to look closer to the files and to the website. There is no mp3s available for download onthe website lyrictemple.com or any of subdomains but only cd catalogue with links to third patry payble cd shops ( i work as affiliate for them )

I expect reopening of the account and you appologies ASAP.



I got folowing email from you: Dear Konstantine Novikov,

A Servage system administrator has made the following note to your account:

[heymrdj]

They sound like a broken record when it comes to responses :P.

Hey wants to bet its one of those response softwares like ERICA rather than an actual person :P.

[cav]

hello everyone!

recently I had to leave Bluehost because, acording them, I was using an extreme amount of resources.

they upgraded the bandwidth to 400GB/month and some months later to 999GB/month

during that year (2006) the max bandwidth in a month was 385GB

so I'm looking for a webhost which can handle that. the files I had there were dj sets (kind of an archive of a dj) which were recorded from free public fm radio weekly (80mb each file) and also a weekly video of a comedy tv show (300mb each file) broadcasted on free public tv. all of these for free of course, no ads even.


any ideas to help my decision?

Its not the bandwidth that they kick you out for, its the CPU usage. If you truly need 100GB space and 1 TB bandwidth, get a dedicated. You'll be thankful you did. My dedicated box doesn't even have that much.

Look, its not due to crappy scripts, its due to the fact that they just offer too much. You could have the most efficient script possible but if your pulling in that much traffic, your going to overuse the CPU according to their "fair usage policy."

I don't need 100gb hdd or even 1TB bw. 500gb max I think it's enough. so dedicated servers are too expensive for that...

[Archbob]

Depends on the kind of site you have, if you use scripts, and how many hits a day you have.

I'm using roughly 400mb space and 60GB-70GB bandwidth per month and I have a dedicated.

If your site is running 500gb and tis sql-powered, you should be definately looking at a dedicated server. Don't expected to host a site that gets tens of thousands of uniques per day on a shared server.

Hello all, this is my first post :)

My name is Loclyn and I am... I am... a 'servage' victim.
I have been battling with the 'servage' since the 4th of Jan 2007. Its a terrible experience that I wish on no man. (or woman)

I like others on the net have a 'servage' story to tell.

This is my 'semi'-quick version:
When I joined there were two credit card payments to servage, when only one was authorized. (there is more to this but this is the quick version)

Servage deny having received two payments, even though our bank statement clearly shows payments to servage and conversations with our bank officially confirmed those payments.
Servage gave me a transation reference number that didn't match up with any thing at our bank end.

After just a month of dealing with 'The Patricia" and getting no where I took action and reversed one of the payments.
Servage immediately suspended my account, asked me to do a charge back reversal, because they said "it is very expensive for them". They insisted I sort this with my bank. (I then found out that they should have been going through their own banking channels - to mercent - to our bank and not expecting the customer to do all the leg work)

My reaction was first “WTF” but somehow I agreed to reverse the chargeback (God knows why I did that), so I signed a letter of authority that servage wrote to confirm the charge back was in error.
'The Patricia' in her professional wisdom gave me the wrong fax number to fax it to, I emailed it to her instead and to their info and sales email accounts , it took them 12 hours to acknowledge the email and pdf copy of the authority.
However, more hours went by and then I submitted in the ticket to find out whats happening and 'The Patricia' replied hours later and decided to ask me to email the authority again.
I questioned her through the ticket system, hours later she said, opps sorry.
Then I start getting excuses like their admin is sick blah blah, sorry for the delay. more hours go by...

I've now been waiting for 3 days, 21 hours, 8 minutes and counting to get them to put my sites up.

I have these main points to say.

1.email is pretty much instantaneous, why send a fax?
2.servages claim of their average response time to tickets being 20 minutes is not true, unless of course they were meaning 20 Microsoft minutes...haha
3.'Patricia' failed all her lessons in customer service and ended up working at servage.
4.I find it ironic that a hosting company whose sole purpose is ensuring that their customers have very little down time (among other things) marketing the great 'uptime' statistics just pull your sites down without justification.


Yes, I've been serverly 'servaged'

[Dini]

I find very interesting that every ticket has a different name signed, although it's the same response every time

Wow! If I did business like that, I would not be in business long.

[Eclouds]

Apparently those guys don't even read nor pay attention to the customer. They are so afraid to get sued for having copyrighted content that any competitor could email them and say "MY COMPETITION.com is hosting copyrighted material" and they will remove you? Why are those guys still in business and why are people still buying fromt hem??

I don't need 100gb hdd or even 1TB bw. 500gb max I think it's enough. so dedicated servers are too expensive for that...
Wrong!
A dedi is the right price for that and its what you need

The wrong price is deals like this big mega deal you could never use without overusing cpu.
500GB bandwidth is a dedi!!!!!!!!!!!
You need to learn the cost of the things your ordering!

[cowboybebop]

These dudes are clever and evil, firstly they'll let you keep your account as long as you use nearly no server resources, secondly they make you prepay for 1~2 years so that way when your account gets suspended they don't have to give your money back / if they have to give money back they'll delay it as long as possible until the customer gives up. There service is very good to people who are thinking about signing up, an example I sent them an email, If I used up 500GB Per month would my account be shut down ?? No.. If I host video files on Servage would my account be shut down ? NO... Lol not the case though :P

It's a money making machine ><

[gemini181]

thanks guys

this will get added to the list of threads i write that no one replys

:P
:beer:

I'm just starting to read the thread.
By now you probably know:


They raised the specs even higher
Lowered the price, and...
...plenty of others replied to your thread.


Thanks for the useful info
:wave:

EDIT: I read everything through half of page three.
Servage looks like one nightmare which I'll not be a part of.
I'd heard of them before, but not really looked into it.

[Darknight]

this thread is so old

Anyway
Savage is still gay.

Looks ok for a cheap host, I've had no problems yet. THey are defintly overselling, but until I actually have a problem I think I'll stick to them.

Heres a coupon code for 25 more gigs if anyones checking them out:ksbservage

[thermodynamics]

I am also a servage user

I am pleased to tell you that they are good as I did not have any downtime during the last six months(I joined in October!)

Also they have added other features like webdrive,autoinstaller

But they look good when we compare with them with Hostgator or Godaddy

Also they take only less than 10 minutes sometime to answer a support question!

also

Here is the another coupon code you may use:CUST26075

servage is good you can use your full 300gb space to store your backups and files etc but i think if you have any CPU AND MEMORY HOG applications or scripts then may be they suspend your account.

[bizaro]

I have a hosting account at servage.net and it turned out to be a big SCAM, they took my money and suspended my

account.
Reason: " At this time today our servers have
served more than 428456 requests for your account."
That's nowhere in the terms of service, and they even don't want to refund me. "only 5 day money back guarantee"

This service is only ok for small websites, when you have more than 200-300 users daily, they will surly suspend the

account to keep their servers running. There are better hosting services out there and BEFORE you purchase search

the web for reviews!!

They RUINED my growing traffic with this!!

I advice other hosting purchaser to STAY AWAY from servage if you want a professional and reliable hosting service

and not a service that shuts down your service when they want to.
