Not sure why you act like that and attack me. You can simply link the romanian law and we all will switch sites and assist you against @luckypenguin but currently it is you who looks pretty bad.
Rest assured, I would neither sue you nor fill a complaint to the eu ( hi friend ), you are just too uninteresting to waste my time.
You are thieves and it became obvious after your lies.
You said that you will provide a refund after I submit the ID.
I did that, now you say that since it expired 4 months ago it's invalid.
You can go ahead and sue us if you think we are scammers. > @FR_Michael said:
I'm not here to justify your xenophobia.
My point was that @luckypenguin himself already mentioned Turkey in his opening comment, so it's not as though you exposed it, which is what he claimed.
Why should I expose costumer data? Dosent make sense ofcourse the op mentioned. The op is still welcome to provide valid identification for a refund.
Why exactly am I xenophobia? I kindly asked you to link the law you refer to all the time. I want to understand your situation. If there is such a law in romania the situation is pretty clear and you act right.
Actually saying that sites are blocked in Turkey and I need a VPN to bypass it does not mean I am from there
But well, it is pretty obvious at this point.
Even if I wanted to provide a recent passport I cannot because I didn't renew the expired one. There is no way that a random VPS provider will need non-expired document,
as if you are border control/airline/security.
You are just small thieves that are trying to get away with stolen 35$.
And all the people here see it clearly except you.
It is very common not to allow bitcoin refunds, it makes the transaction look like money laundering. The problem with gazduirenet is they should not allow paying before reviewing orders. They should learn sth from Netcup
Do you think this is their only problem?
Their problem is honesty, it's not a "simple mistake" or misconfiguration.
Guys plz... Stahp teh xenophobia already
Although I can't decide whether you or @gazduirenet is (more) right, you certainly took two risky steps right at the beginning.
What prevents you from making that decision? How can I not be legit by paying with
irreversible method of payment?
I don't see how it is risky if the provider is honest. Worst case I can ask a refund and
it should be processed without any issues.
If I used the services and abused them, sent spam or something, that's something else.
But they deleted me from WHMCS right away and never provided any server.
@luckypenguin: Do you have another username on LET?
I am not sure why this is linked to honesty.
If they deliberately defraud money in this way, then they are dishonest, but I don't think they do like that. (I got a refund).
I believe this is a loophole in the system. I think you can try to continue to communicate with him. There should be a good result.
Plot twist @luckypenguin is @cociu
No. but what difference does it make? I registered just to post this experience and
ask the community and warn about this provider. I don't care about hosting much.
Echoing @Creling above, I thought that it was more common not to allow Bitcoin refunds. What does their refund policy say for Bitcoin?
There's your problem. There are more shitty hosts than good ones out there. Prepaying for a year with BTC to a spammer and expecting decent service is wishful thinking at best.
Any attempt to claim that I do it as a way to harm gazduirenet is pathetic.
If they send the refund I can lock and delete this thread. I don't care about them.
We will recover your account after verification, we did contacted you to let you know why. Your bitcoin payment is being frozen by payment processor, we can't refund you out of our pocket. So please provide valid verification.
@bugrakoc sadly you are right...
Didn't think a provider will damage it's reputation and start spreading lies
for 35$.
in their tos:
g. Gazduire.Net isi rezerva dreptul de a solicita clientilor copii ale actelor de identitate pentru a verifica conformitatea acestora cu datele din formularul de comanda
i. Nu vom restitui platile efectuate de conturi vizate de alin. f. daca se dovedeste falsul in completarea formularului de comanda.
g. Hosting reserves the right to require clients to copy their identity documents to verify their compliance with the data in the order form
i. We will not refund the payments made by the accounts referred to in paragraph f. If it is false to complete the order form.
if you dont read the tos, nobody else will help you do that
hahahah , this is good..
I sent you the passport and you said since it expired in Jan it's not enough.
Mobilepay cannot hold your money, because it's yours and not theirs.
I paid for the service and received a notification that the payment was accepted.
So this is not "your pocket" and your agreements with them are not my business.
Tell them then, that the customer is valid and they can release the payment, then
refund me. But of course you will find another excuse not to do that.
like i said i dont see why you wouldnt just return fund but again its common practice to not refund bitcoin i agree on that, i suppose the best thing you can do is learn from what has happened, First of all never pay for a year upfront to a company you have never used (unless its stupid cheap of course) but also never pay for a year with crypto that there is no way of getting back.
Honestly id say the company should just return the money but at the same time there is issues both sides and i cant comment on other countries laws nor can i be bothered to google them haha
I just found it odd that both you and @gazduirenet signed up on LET (apparently) for the first time a few hours ago.
I believe that we care about $35, and it's not a good idea to pressure through let (they don't even care about the provider tag), especially if you still have a hope of getting a refund.
I believe that private communication is more effective
ADDITION:
Dont think it was a good idea to say another hosting company is not following laws without hard proof lol, Talk about LET drama
@Bopie it's not about laws they are just making this up.
100 other providers in Romania accept bitcoin and refund bitcoin and don't ask ID,
unless it's paypal and suspected fraud.
