I paid for a hosting service and never received any confirmation or access credentials. There was no follow-up email, and support never responded. After multiple attempts to reach them, I filed a payment dispute with Amex. This company appears to take money without delivering any service. Avoid at all costs.

Dear JM V,
First of all, we sincerely apologize for the inconvenience you have experienced
You mentioned that you did not received an activation email. You can actually contact our Support Team pertaining this issue.
Additionally, we have found the FACT that you have been with us earlier under a different username. Why don't you just raise a ticket to our Support Team? You did mention that we do not deliver the service. This is just so absurd, especially knowing that you have a previous account with us in the past
Kindly be advised that this simple matter can always be addressed easily by contacting us and you actually do not have write this review directly. We do not prevent you to write this review though. However, knowing of the FACT that you have been with us in the past, we wonder about your motives in writing this review
Anyway, thank you for your time in writing this review though. It looks like you have more time in writing a review than to contact us directly.

This hosting service is a scam
This hosting service is a scam. First off they are running it from Singapore and may not actually use US based data centers. When compared to a few other shared hosting solutions, they scored the lowest in performance (running Umbraco website). Lastly, they use deceptive pricing, renewing trials for 6 months without clearly stating it during registration, not willing to cancel and refund unless you do it 10! days before end of the cycle. Stay away!

Hello "Lost Customer", if you are a real gentleman, you should inform us your real name and real domain name. We know and understand that the competition in this industry is really tough nowadays.
Just for the information, we do have servers in various data center, i.e. United States, Netherlands, Germany, Singapore, etc and this is just to name a few. We have been in business for more than 15 years. We *always* adhere to whatever that is written on our Terms and Conditions page. But anyway, thank you so much for your wonderful feedback and we appreciate it

Appalling company to deal with
Appalling company to deal with. Took money from us without invoicing or notice and refused to refund. when asked to produce invoices they ignore you. Go with a trusted provider for your website hosting who you can contact easily if your business depends on it. Would never use again.

This is a scam service
This is a scam service, these people hide behind their dodgy policies, double charge for the same service through auto PayPal payment and don't give a refund due to ridiculous reasons; they will lie to win the PayPal cases raised about the double charge; they appear to be sort of legit to get the upper hand.

You will be all alone!
In the previous review, I wrote that they would never return the money, therefore, I was forced to use their service. I started uploading some of my web services and along the way, I created several technical tickets to gain some information. Without any exception, they replied with links to very old blog posts that were unrelated or their answer was irrelevant. Finally, I just asked them to give me the logs of my services to diagnose the problems myself (The most primitive feature of each hosting provider). What was the answer!?
"Since you are on a shared host we can not share logs!". I tried to understand which version and configuration of IIS and MSSQL they were using and enabled the logged on my own. With the logs I enabled, I also fixed all the problems!
I finally sent the message and taught them how logs can be enabled for each user within files on their host! However, it is insane that they do not understand anything technical. Even how to use the features of their host!
You will be all alone with very limited features there. I strongly recommend not paying any penny since they will lock it and give something beyond bad service (almost no service).

Very bad experience from this provider.
Very bad experience from this provider.
Signup at your own risk!
Their subscription description was not what I was provided. When I contacted their helpdesk, I was asked to pay additional for the services that I wanted.
Then it became a matter of '.. we will get back to you in 3-5 hrs ...' which they never solved anything.
When I finally had enough of this rubbish response over 3 months, I asked for a refund.
They cancelled my account but never refunded any money without any notice. My account was dropped.
Now I'll just keep on asking them to refund my money. AND submit a bad review anywhere where they exist on the internet until I get a refund.

Hi, I had thought I signed up for a Docker hosting plan.
However, it looks like a Plesk hosting plan.
How do I deploy a docker container to the hosting plan?
Do you have any documentation on how this is done?

Hi ..............,
Kindly be advised that for the remote node support, Docker requires an extra license to run on a shared server. You may check it at

.............. (client) said:
Hi, I did not want a remote node support plan for docker.
When I signed up for the Docker hosting, your system did not mention this at all and the additional extra licenses.
What I wanted was for a plan that I could host my docker containers.

Frustrating Experience: Unreliable Service and Lackluster Support at ASPHostPortal
Despite the initial affordability, my experience has been marred by significant issues:
Ineffective Support: Solely relying on an online help desk made addressing critical issues, like server-related downtime and SSL configuration problems, frustrating and time-consuming.
Performance Concerns: Frequent downtime and inconsistent performance negatively impacted the reliability of my website.
Value for Money: While the service started cheap, the overall lack of support and service reliability made it poor value for money.
Refund Policy: Upon canceling my account due to ongoing issues, ASPHostPortal refused to offer a refund for the unused portion of the subscription, reflecting a lack of customer-oriented policies.
In summary, my time with ASPHostPortal was characterized by unreliable service and inadequate support. I recommend considering alternative hosting providers with a more customer-centric approach.

Dear Mr. Carlos,
Thank you for your review. According to our system, we can see that you have been with us since July 2014 and this means that we have provided you a service for almost 10 years. Pertaining your feedback about our system, we have used this system since our inception (and that was almost 16 years ago). Besides, if our system has so many issues, we do not think you can stay for almost 10 years with us, do you? For your information, we do *not* increase your hosting fee since you started the service with us 10 years ago.
We sincerely apologize if in case you experience few short downtimes during your 10 years tenure of service with us, but we do believe that we should not deserve a 1 star rating just because of the recent issue you had with us. However, we value your feedback and we strive best to improve our service
Pertaining the refund, please be advised that we *always* honor all the eligible refund that is stated under our Terms of Service.
Above all, we wish you all the best luck with your new hosting provider. Thank you for the past 10 years stay with us.
