Im trying to look all over this document to see where it would say anything about a termination fee and how they could possibly get it to equal $5,000.00

Fletch XXX 12-19-2008 05:24 PM

Does anyone have K.C's or Ray's contact?

KC is still in the industry isnt he?

Mutt 12-19-2008 05:33 PM

jscott is getting shaken down by Jupiter/Navisite

it was a piece of shit hosting company even when Lensman had some ownership in it

shunga 12-19-2008 05:35 PM

Good luck getting it worked out. It looks like a speculative money grab.

boneprone 12-19-2008 05:41 PM

Is he for sure?
Ill contact him. was it a similar situation?

Please people if you know of any stories or others with issue let me know. Either on this post or private via icq.

It also says if you tell them 45 days ahead of time the contract won't be renewed. But it renews every year. So if you signed up jan first of 03 then canceled 45 days ahead of the yearly renewal date they can't even charge you any fee at all.

if customer seeks to terminate prior to the full term, customer acknowledges and agrees that it shall pay jupiter the full vale of the term, calculated as the monthly recurring fees multiplied by the total months in the term.
section d)

and they autorenew you for 12 months
and you have to give 45 days notice before the end of your previous term to stop the auto renew

seriously fucked up contract, but you agreed to pay them for the full year if you cancel anytime within that 45 days of that year.

DeanCapture 12-19-2008 05:42 PM

Hope ya get it worked out Bone. Doesn't surprise me that some shady hosting company is trying to take you for money though - these are tough times buddy. Everybody whose hosting with Jupiter should keep an eye on this thread. Hopefully the powers to be won't delete it or ban you for starting it.... but ya' just never can tell with this crew :Oh crap

Then Feb another. I tell them again. Ive left close and stop billing.

March I get another bill.

Not to mention this is for a 10mpbs P4 server at $696.00 a month
So its adding up. $ 4,649.49 to be exact..

I tell them im not going to pay this. We need to work something out. I have emails and copies of support tickets.

They say not only are you going to pay this, but we are going to charge you a FEE as well!

A $5,000.00 Termination fee.

So you owe us $9,000.00

Im thinking WTF. This is a fucking shakedown.
Shady collection agents call all the time...
I tell them to fuck off and this is not legit.

Now an attorney in my home town is wanting, or I should say threating to take me to court.

I say again, what the fuck?

assuming that you setup the contract in january 1
it all comes down to exactly what day in november did you cancel

after the 15 you missed the 45 day notification date and your hosting contract auto renewed and you own them a full years hosting fees plus the two months previous

before the 15th you got under the 45 day autorenewal , and you only owe them the two months that are covered by the 45 days notice.

that of course if you can prove you sent them written notice. and weather email constitutes written notice.

br4sco 12-19-2008 06:02 PM

damn i'll be sure to stay away from this company and never refer anybody to them. :2 cents:

jact 12-19-2008 06:03 PM

That's some shady shit right there, I'm so glad we never went with Jupiter when they hounded us for our business.

cykoe6 12-19-2008 06:12 PM

I am not sure why you are so worried. I would just not pay them. I doubt they pursue a lawsuit for that amount. It sounds like they are just shaking you down to me.

So if you want feel free to say your goodbyes to me now.

Fuck you if you think you can just shake ME down.

Do it. Fuck them. Someone rips you like that, fuck 'em.

jscott 12-19-2008 06:21 PM

BP I just sent you an icq, I was having problems with them too, they have a very difficult time reading and understanding English, we were in shitty situation and trying to deal with it, I would ask questions, or make statements but they'd basically say "Fuck you, pay me!" in a nice way without addressing any questions/concerns

Anywayys, I was with them, locked into their stupid contract also, and they were SHIT host since day 1 when I signed on with them, they made a LOT of false promises

I can support you if possible in ANY possible way about this, I even contacted the BBB in case they really expected me to pay them their bogus "termination fees", and hosting bills for shitty services

JD 12-19-2008 06:27 PM

god damn man... 5k termination fee? That's got to be illegal.

VicD 12-19-2008 06:27 PM

This is why I read the fine print, when signing my name.

NTM 12-19-2008 06:37 PM

Lensman fucked everything up.

Jupiter Hosting
reality check
playboy
GFY


LOL.

camgirlshide 12-19-2008 07:06 PM

call your state BBB. Many states have passed laws against this kind of contract because cell phone companies were trying this crap.

directfiesta 12-19-2008 08:03 PM

Chinese ( sounds goog ...) word of wisdom:

Never Do Business With Family

:2 cents:

boneprone 12-19-2008 08:35 PM

I signed the contract on Oct 22, 2004.

Canceled in November.

They kept billing me for that month, the next and the next few after I canceled.

Then slapped on this Termination fee of 5k

I dont think you have my right icq man.
There was a fake boneprone hitting people up a few years ago with a bogus icq.

My icq is 66883099

So what ever happened?

boneprone 12-19-2008 08:46 PM

Its been over a year now. One year of dealing with the bullshit.

Now I have some local attorney trying to serve me to take me to court.
Why would they want to take it this far is beyond me.

I even wrote them trying to settle. Hell Ill pay to get this over with. But im not paying the shit termination fee. Like I said it was bad enough I was paying $696.00 for 10mpbs a shit P4 Server.

Ill pay two out of the four months they are trying to shake me for after I canceled. Thats it. Hell im even willing to pay up to four.

But they want more. Much more.

boneprone 12-19-2008 08:50 PM

So tell me people. This is the question.
I wonder if they can and will take me to court for this?

Also am I out of line here for not wanting to pay them? Pay them for hosting after I left.
Pay them a termination Fee that is $5000.00

I wonder if they honestly think this is legit. Or if this is just a shakedown.
Either way its disturbing.

Not sure what my next move is.

But I had to take this public.
Ive been dealing with this for 1 Year.

fris 12-19-2008 08:54 PM

likewhoa did this when they went under, tried to get money from people

that termination fee would be good for hookers

boneprone 12-19-2008 09:01 PM

3 years ago my friend "The Fly" was banned for speaking out about this company.

I didnt back him... Let him get banned from GFY. Granted the company was then owned by Ray and Lensman and I never had issue with them. I considered Lensman a friend. Truthfully I did. Now he may have never seen me as that but I did...

But now looking at this contract and if it is indeed legit and its them that got me in this shit, the old Jupiter and not this new Navisite with this SHIT contract then fuck. Im not sure what to say. Other than im disapointed.

I made a mistake in chosing my friends. I made a mistake not listening to others and The Fly and sticking by this company as they banned anyone who spoke out against them. I turned the other cheek and never gave any of these complaints a second thought. As many of you may being towards me right now.

I always had the highest respect for Both Ray and Lensman as well as all the Jupiter Crew. But im starting to question all that now if this contract is indeed legit and it was they that got me into this.

I hate to whine and bitch but I feel betrayed.

By everyone there.
