123systems: Wrong advertising in LEB, then, custom new and... more expensive offer in support ticket
123system is well known here for their... professionalism. Those are just my 2 cents.
I tried to order a 15$ yearly kvm package from here: http://lowendbox.com/blog/123systems-18year-512mb-ssd-kvm-in-buffalo-or-los-angeles-and-more-kvm-offers/
Offer was on July 2, I tried to order it less than a day after they post it.
I tried to click on 512MB HDD Annual offer, but it was not working. So, I opened a ticket to their system and asked them to fix the ordering link. I also posted a comment in offer, asked the same thing, to fix the ordering link.
12 days later (!!!) they answered the ticket (after they closed it without an answer and a reopening from my side) saying:

Helloo sir,
best offer we can provide for that package is currently $25/yr:
https://123systems.net/billing/cart.php?a=confproduct&i=1
From 15$ to 25$ and after... 12 days of ticket pending! before you start with (search about them in LET, blah, blah), I already have 2 small boxes with them and I know the quality of this provider. I know what they offer, but still... This behavior was something that should be stated here...
Comments
:O
They're shit, end of.
You would have to pay me to use them
Their KVM is not shit! yet
It will become shit, support is shit. All 'round shit.
And who is bharris??? Wasn't only Andrew staff?
We'll see in some months :P
Oh well 1, 2, 3 ... runnnnnnnnnnn :-P
This is my KVM speed :P
I know the quality of this provider.
Don't tell me your reason of having such views about this provider are because they don't provide DD porn as most complains/negative I see on LET are because "That provider really sucks, only 250 MB/s disk I/O according to DD test. I opened a ticket & they have done nothing to fix it......"
Probably some fake account for a outsourced indian company.
@K2Bytes I don't usually complain about a provider, especially when it is so cheap and had been tested from a lot of users. I know what I'm buying, but in this case, the thing is about how professionals are they. If you place an add with offers, then, offers have to be valid. If no, you say that offer is ended (offer is still on in LEB). And, when there is a support ticket in sales dptm., they may have to take their time to answer it because of lack of staff: 1, 2, maybe 3 days. Not 12 and with a response that is almost a laugh against a wanna be a service buyer from them...
Things changed at 123Systems after it was allegedly sold to CVPS
When did this happen? Are now a part of CVPS?
No solid proof, though a client did report having their refund request handled by Chris a few weeks back.
You're starting the drama?
As @kcaj said there is no solid proof or official statements but it is being rumored for a lot of time here & on another forum as well that it was sold to CVPS sometime ago.
Just saw this on LEB. Hmm
@XxNisseGamerxX Yeh, I just saw it myself. Maybe they were bought by cvps and the new owner is trying to do some damage control. Maybe it is just Andrew that wanted to dispel impressions after all that angry posts down his offer...
If Andrew wrote it he should have said his name. Hmm
@XxNisseGamerxX I don't know what was the records before, but now in whois the admin is 123system, there is not any name there.
Well I had last checked whois for their domain in early 2013 then it had Andrew's name there.
The whois hasn't changed recently, last updated December 2013.
Those rumors didn't start recently, have been around for a few months now.
Still, Andrew is the one that send Maarten the offer in LEB, the one that published at 2 of July.
maybe their systems: 1 staff, 2 weeks response, 3 months problem.
Gone downhill since they were bought by ChicagoVPS aka @CVPS_Chris
Unfortunately, they were already at the bottom of the hill before that.
@CVPS_Chris
God d**** it ! again, same bs like ugvps! I MAKE IT A POINT OF STAYING CLEAR OF CVPS BS. If the host did sell, they at least didn't let any of their customers know
Ermm... and they still at there isnt it? Wonder how did they cope with that?
I disagree that this is a problem. Promo ended, they didn't respond quickly to a presales inquiry. That's what I'm reading from this.
