OK, "No bandwidth charges" translates into "Run, you're about to get fucked."

more like 'capped at 0.2345KBit'.

free bandwidth is like free porn, a marketing gimmick. I like companies who deal with me straight instead.

fedfest · 01-14-2003, 10:08 AM

Yeah thats kind of what i thought to.. allthough the guy i talked to promised no reduced speed even if i used a shitload ofbandwith.. Told him i was using 1000GB/month now, and that was defenetly no problem...

But then again.. had just about the same promise from my host at the moment and thats slow as hell

Anyone here using them..?

I have nothing but bad things to say about Verio. I have had them for years and can't stand them. Currently researching a better network. Fortunately, we're multihomed and all that other neato stuff so when they do go down we don't (which happens a LOT).

Buy my content, it's not on Verio.

dantheman...

Sure.. Might not be until tomorow thoug.. but I'll have a look at your site and then send you a mail :o)

JConway · 01-14-2003, 12:56 PM

I worked for Verio for 2 years. The package you are looking at is a Virtual Private Server. The thing that sucks is that if you are on the same box with some people who are pushing major transfer it fucks you all the same. Also, they say no bandwidth charges, but what they don't tell you is if you go over your "soft cap" of 10-12 Gigs, your shit slows way down. That being said, they do have a good network and pretty damn good up time and a cool management interface. If you are still interested, call my mom Terri at 866-531-5444 x3014. Bless her heart, she is still employed at Verio. Tell her I sent you(her son James).

VirtuMike..

Thanks alot.. They did promice a 99.99% uptime, but guess that was just salestalk then :/

Just wondering.. Why did you stay with them for years then..??

Hmm..not looking for content..Looking for bandwith ;o)

fedfest · 01-14-2003, 01:25 PM

Thanks JConway

That's kinda what my curent host is doing now...eccept I'm slowing the others down so they've moved all my stuff to the same box those bastards, so now when i push some trafic i slow all my own sites down :/

Maby I'd get back to him and get those promises i writing.. Then theyd have to stick to them..Ehmm..shouldn't they/wouldn't they..??

Told him I was using 1000GB/month now.. Funny he didn't mention that "soft cap" of 10-12 Gigs..Hell..I'd be slowed down 99% of the time then..

Thanks for hooking me up with your mum
