"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.

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…

They are pretty much a scam when it comes to the price. Linode has made things simpler, but their price is expensive, pretending to be cheap, they charge you as a customer to pay tax. Check the invoice, when you buy their services and they don't even mention the tax until you get the invoice. I would say, stay away from them.

Linode is not great, they couldn’t handle our kub-cluster capacity so we had to move to AWS a much larger provider. Support was very slow, took days to fix easy issues. Overall in the end they couldn’t handle our large infrastructure and we had to move elsewhere. Infra is okay but management is very bad, I don’t recommend hosting large infrastructure here.

It the price seems ok until they send you the invoice, the invoice will be a suprice for all. They will add extra price for this and that and also tax, they force the customers to pay for it. Not good...

Despicable. The company suspended our account because we did not update our contact name on the file. We were offline for ONE HOUR and our business was out for one hour on a busy Monday morning. They said they sent us support tickets and we didn't respond, so they suspended our account to get our attention! WTH. Our business was out for 1 HOUR. First of all, we don't just sit around and respond to tickets, we have got a business to run. Secondly, it was for a contact name that didn't get updated. Do you really need to suspend our account for that? We have been with you for five years! This company has changed after the acquisition. Thirdly, there are so many other ways you can reach out to us, like direct email (Vs. a support ticket - we thought it was a response to close a ticket) or sms to get our attention Overall, this experience has made us realize that we ought to switch to a provider that cares more about their customers and user experience. What gave them the right or authority to shut down our business just because of a contact name? We don't believe this is the vendor we want to stick around. We will take action to switch to another more credible vendors

I really wouldn't bother, not reliable at all, always issues, connection problems and downtime, I can't say anything but beware you will be very disappointed.
