LinodeReviews of linode.com

I have been using their services for about 5 years. Recently tried creating account for another customer but it failed. I thought may be there is some problem in the email address or credit card info so I tried several combinations and none of them worked. Whatever I do they always reject the new account creation saying "This was due to activity or patterns associated with fradulent behaviour". It seems after aquisition by Akamai they people from Linode dont want to get new customers.

Immediately canceled my “account” after getting all of my personal information and credit card detail. We all know how they make their money.

Good experience. I have had several linodes over many years and have had no issues with their support or payment handling. The servers have been reliable and downtime has been negligible. My over-all experience is positive and good.

Their support was very responsive and helpful in solving my issue. I am very happy for the options they provide and the excellent customer service that comes with it.

"A recently created account with this email address was canceled by our automated systems. This was due to activity or patterns associated with fraudulent behavior. Additional attempts to sign up may also be rejected." This is what they told me after I tried to make an account. I tried to fill in everything correctly and did everything as they said, only to be terminated right after. When mailing them I got no response and calling them didnt work because they hang up immediately. Can't seem to contact them anywhere :/ :/ :/

They are doing their best to keep an illegal dmca infringing site online, they'll just bounce back with as many questions as they can to stall the time and earn money from the client who pays for the hosting.

Well linode is ok!! but they need to be a little faster with the support so i -1 star due to the fact that support could be slow. but it's 100% human support so that is expected. You need to have some basic knowledge on linux os. It's not for newbies . Since its not fully managed like other hosting providers. I think most of the negative reviews are bit misleading since it hold no real bases . Linode is pretty very much reliable. It's very easy to use. For newbies please use the marketplace . it makes life much easier for you. For experts Installing your own distro . is better for me. Anyways 4 out of 5. Linode is ok.!

They did not let me sign up without my credit card info and once they received all the data, my application was rejected stating that my activity may be fraud related. What a crazy thing. Now they got my credit card data…
