I spammed and OVH suspended me for it

We have some servers for our clients and ovh suspend permanently these vps with 1 or 2 warnings, we haven't faced such issues from none of the providers but ovh. They didn't give the time to recover the data.

Warnings for what?
Welcome to LET!?
Go ahead and dump them like the ruskies have been. I miss my KS-4C for <#10/mo
You don't need to recover data from miners
I wonder if I should one day try it.
It's the big hype these days.
Then again, all I will probably be doing is using a program that I don't understand which sort of sucks.
Ruskies doesn't dump them. Bliat.
Actually, spammming is an issue in all vps and all datacenters are facing this issue but ovh dont give time to revise the issue and they just simply terminate the vps
how ridiculous
For OVH, customers are just numbers and they certainly won't care even if they get rid of problematic ones. They'd rather not spend the manpower (therefore, wage) on things.
Not sure what actually happened to you, but if spamming happened and led to loss, were you willing to compensate all cost? I recalled seeing providers asking hundreds of dollars for the man-power to negotiate with all kinds of spammer list and get their IP unblocked, not to mention that in some case these IPs will leave permanent reputation lost that even money doesn't help.
So in short, you were caught sending out spam?

Hasn't ever been an issue for any of my machines.
If your machines get terminated due to spam, it means, you ignored multiple warning, or you did something utterly stupid.
You cancelled the order? Or Kimsufi cancelled for u. As I recall, recently, they had a discount like 10euro pre tax.
You got "1 or 2" warnings... what did you expect them to do if you don't react properly.
The moderators need to rename the topic to: I tried to SPAM and OVH suspended my account.
What do you expect? You just ignored their warnings and I bet you it’s more than two you had!
I like this story
Some providers are afraid to put some balls behind their policies. I'm sure OVH is the largest provider you've dealt with while some smaller providers might look the other way on spammers because the little bit of money you pay monthly covers morning coffee for the one man hosting provider.
Well good thing you took backups on idontbackupshit.com. Much safer than dropbox, completely unhackable.
@techiwizard Them, not allowing you to further abuse their system, is the ultimate discrimination and breach of human rights.
You should open a case in the European Court of Justice.
so you were spamming! and waiting for OVH to request you, "Hello Sir, Can you please stop sending spam? it is destroying our 'so-called' reputation!". Seriously, spamming, WHY?
We are not spamming, got some mails regarding spam emails but its common and we have already taken action against the customers who have done this but i don't think none of the providers do like this.
may be ovh have enough customers but atleast they should allow to migrate the contents
Or the action you’ve taken was insufficient.
Renamed the thread, OVH gave you multiple chances.
Make a chargeback ahahah
Don't be a cunt.
Some SPAMer thinks that the following description is not SPAM:
Any other fancy descriptions of SPAM?
The ham like meat in a can you eat in USA
"ahahah" sarcasm
Well obviously use a host like Ecatel/Novogara or a host that will forward you abuse complaints and you will get to deal with them yourself.
Obviously the above isn't necessary illegal but don't be a dick and spam shit
Yeah, sure he could do that and not give any fuck whatsoever until the next millenium hits but then i wouldn't be suprised if that doesn't quiete yield the deliverability he is looking for. I mean seriously is there anyone who sees traffic from Ecatel, Quasi and friends and does not instantly think DROP?
I actually do feel your pain. My incoming backup relays were there, meaning they received email and relayed the mail back to my primary server. They intercept mail traffic and scan it, leaving me with two options. Either I filter the mail with 0% failure or leave, because they'll block SMTP automatically. Despite zero risk with me, obviously. So I'm leaving OVH completely.
