    Hey guys,

    I'm considering getting a Raptor 5 VPS from Hosting-IE, and I'm wondering what type
    of speeds you're getting, and if you're happy with their service.

    Are you truly getting 10 MB/s consistently?

    Any complaints with their services? ( Besides the LONG wait for the set up )

    Would you recommend using their services?

    Any feedback would be appreciated, thanks.

    Sam

    P.S. I wanted to go with OVH, but they won't sell to non-Europeans unfortunately.

    I just got my Raptor 3 VPS a couple days ago and and very happy with speeds, 10-11 MB/s D and ~6 MB/s Up. Is pretty slow browsing when utorrent is open because of 512MB memory with windows. And it took 3 weeks to set up and that was after I emailed them to see when it would be ready. Overall for what I am paying I am very happy with service.

    Thanks guys,

    I heard they have horrible set up times for sure, but once it's up and running,
    I just wanted to know if they were worth it. Sound like they might be.

    But you are not paying for something that they haven't delivered.

    You only start paying once you get your log in details, that is when the cycle starts.

    You may have paid for it to be set up, but you won't lose any days for what you have paid for.
    Yes Sir, I'm Right On It!!

    I agree, and quite frankly, I don't care if I have to wait 2 - 3 weeks to be
    set up, I'm already sharing a seed box with a friend.

    What I want to know is their performance, and how well they deliver.

    If they get consistent speeds, etc. That's my main concern.

    From my experience with that company sometimes they speeds drop down for few hours and then get back.
    i had a server there not VPS and it wasn't so good the support was awful the only thing that was good the they setup my machine in less then 24 hours.
    I was lucky I guess.
