Changing the TOS to practically own all of YOUR content is completely out of line, which could be also called a thievery. No one else does this. We end and recommend everyone to move avay from this provider.

Banned for "violation" before the service purchase XD
I set up the basic account and couldn't even provide the billing details, while they already banned me for the "violation" of TOS, and I had not a single service used with them. That sounds extremely worrying if they can as easily kill and ruin a running production server for your business in a matter of minutes. Their responses feel like talking to AI.

New TOS lets them do basically anything with your content
New TOS gives them full commercial rights to everything hosted on their platform, in perpetuity, and with no compensation back to you. I am locked out of my account unless I agree. Some people online are saying it's likely they plan to train AI on everyone's websites/apps. Could also be plans to scrape and monetize database contents? I've been trying to get them to grant me access at least temporarily so I can migrate my projects out, but I keep getting the run-around. I feel like I'm being pressured to agree to something I'm not comfortable with under duress.

Very disappoint and the supportor is like a robot not human.
After I paid for them and used their services for a few days it worked well, then they asked me to provide the documents and suspended my account for additional documents.
In the ticket, I tried to ask them and give me some sample documents to let me check and provide to them but they didn't respond to me, They just said the verified failed but didn't tell me what kind of document.
and then I tried to provide what I could and them again in the ticket but they didn't get their answer within 24 hours and then they terminated my account and said:
As you are unable to comply with our request for documents, we are providing notice of our intent to discontinue service to this account effective immediately for violation of our Terms of Service/Acceptable Use Policies.
They just terminated my account. I wonder are they human or just robots? Since they didn't answer the question and directly terminated the account.
I experienced use with other companies, and there is good even in the ticket. At least a human conversation and mention every point we asked.
I wouldn't recommend Vultr to anyone in my country and I will just post on my social and other things as well as I had a very bad experience with Vultr.

Vultr is WOKE HOSTING.
They have gone woke as woke can be. They now want to play thought and word police and will remove your app or website if anyone takes any offense at all to any of your content.
Here is a section of their thought police policy
Offensive Content. Content that is harmful to minors in any way, defamatory, libelous, obscene, abusive, threatening, discriminatory, harassing, invasive of privacy, false, intentionally misleading, patently offensive, or otherwise objectionable, including content that constitutes child pornography, relates to bestiality, depicts non-consensual sex acts or that promotes racism, bigotry, hatred, religious intolerance, misogyny, or physical harm of any kind against any group, individual or animal.
Basically anything that can in any way offend anyone in any way. I can understand the porn BS but the rest is asinine. So who decides what is hatred or bigotry or religious intolerance etc. etc. And why misogyny and not misandry? After nearly 10 years, I recently removed my websites and will not suggest this hosting ever again to anyone ever. I wrote articles about how great Vultr was and how to use their API's and much more.
Why would I risk putting customers on a platform like this where their website could randomly be shutdown at anytime? That would make me look bad. It was great while it lasted, but I won't wait around for surprises and I won't let my customers get angry at me because they typed a no no thought. These days everyone is so easily offended. Don't use Vultr. I noticed this BS policy updated when I signed in and it wanted me to agree to it. I immediately shut everything down. I hope their wokeness hits them like Bud Light and all the other pathetic woksters. I hope that vanguard and blackrock money is really worth it.
Hey VULTR HERE'S AN IDEA. STICK TO HOSTING AND HOSTING ONLY GTFO OF WORD POLICING. hostgator and others don't have thought police BS use policies. I'll never suggest them to anyone ever again. I'll never use them for any customers ever again. Use them at your own risk. And damn sure don't use them for any customers who might get a nasty surprise if they type something some pronouner doesn't approve of and their site gets reported and shutdown. That kind of use policy is for social platforms not for hosting companies. FFS

The worst hosting provider ever, SCAM!
The worst hosting provider ever. Created an account, deposited money, got account on review. Next day could not login, said account does not exist. Tried to recover password, no mail arrived. Scam.

Beware of their scamming tactics
Upon subscribing I was promised to get a $250 credit so I made a $50 deposit, everything was fine until I reached $60 in my balance : they removed the credit (which only last 1 month and at most I would've used $100) saying that I violated a policy, and they didn't even mention which one ! I contacted them, got a reply and I replied my ticket has been idle for over 1 week
Then my account was suspended for non-payment before the next billing month, and when I contacted them they said that I shouldn't open a new ticket and provide any additional info in the first ticket in which they didn't reply !
+ They store your payment method : my credit card was rejected at first and wasn't eligible for promotions but they tried to charge it anyways
What a scamming and greedy company
