Great seedbox - http://seedlayer.net/

[WhoopDeDoo]

Here's my review of this site's service from a friend's view.

(6:58:50 PM) Kevin: hey
(6:59:21 PM) Kevin: fucking SL
(6:59:25 PM) Me: ?
(6:59:27 PM) Kevin: FTP access can only be given on the first day you ordered (You should of have requested once you ordered)
(6:59:36 PM) Kevin: On 7/19/08, [email protected] <[email protected]> wrote:

FTP details will be setup by our tech within 36 hours and we will send it
to you.

Kind Regards,
The SeedLayer Team


Is that why you told me you'd give me FTP access within 36 hours? (Before the reinstall which deleted all of my data).
(6:59:49 PM) Kevin: that's the email they sent me.. after they said they'd give me access
(7:00:08 PM) Kevin: I'm sooo not renewing this.
(7:00:22 PM) Me: wow
(7:00:56 PM) Kevin: Not sure where the fuck it said I had to request FTP access the day I ordered it
(711 PM) Me: doesn't matter
(713 PM) Me: they said they would
(715 PM) Me: and didn't
(718 PM) Kevin: yup.
(730 PM) Kevin: Hm..
(748 PM) Kevin: I might just do a charge back on paypal if they don't give me ftp access
(7:02:28 PM) Me: good
(7:02:56 PM) Kevin: (There was an error receiving this message. Either you and **** have different encodings selected, or *** has a buggy client.)
(7:04:11 PM) Kevin: The software is terrible..
(7:04:20 PM) Kevin: so, yeah, fuck this site

Enjoy everyone.

Just wait to OVH opens to all countries...

I've concluded that the max connections is 8... and here I thought 25 is bad.

I guess since they are stopping service after this month they don't care about customer satisfaction anymore. Rubbish.

Which server are you on? I'm on tflux4 and i get like 1 MB/s up which isnt too bad but still very slow compared to before

tflux3

I've bursted to 1MB/s also sometimes, but only because 1 of the 8 people I connect to actually has the bandwidth to accept such a large speed. I'd rather have more connections and a constant 200kB/s than a rare burst of high speed.

Of course none of this matters because SL oversells and will stop hosting flux after this month anyways. Just trying to get what I can out of this crappy service.

[tehmrserver]

you have any recommendations of any webui/flux host??

i need a stable one now :/

I thought it was excellent for at least the 1st week.

Now theres too many people on the servers

Hey, OP's friend here.

This is what they sent me later:

FTP details:
host: xx.xxx.xxx.xx
user: xxxx
pass: xxxx
port xx
Happy?

Am I happy? Not with this company. Doesn't help that they did a server reinstall and decided not to backup any data. Totally unprofessional, here's an email I got from another customer after they did the reinstall:

Hi Everyone!

If you haven't noticed... the twat at seedlayer CC'ed this E-Mail instead of
BCC meaning that all your E-Mails were visible to every one that got this
E-Mail, and from the looks of it they only have 11 customers on this server
with an average income of say $15 which equates to $165.00, I am sure the
server rental comes in at around this price, maybe more??? Which leaves no
room for them to put food on the table etc. and the way the server is
performing then there is no way they can shove more people on!

I for one am concerned at how insecure our other Information may be with
this mob, and how they are going to stay afloat, so I have jumped ship and
reported them to Paypal as this has been going on since day one!

This is just a bit of advice, jump ship from them before they go bust and
take your money, as I have seen it happen far too often, as I am sure most
of you have

Cheers,

Jared

This is their response:

Hello Sir/madam,

A person named "Jared" or with the email address [email protected]
just emailed everyone this junky email letter. Please ignore the message, because we have already dealt with him. He is just trying to get some attention

We have completed reinstalled the system, and your new login details will be sent very soon.

Again.. they fail to BCC..

/sigh

So has anyone actually received a full refund from them? I pretty much just counted my money good as gone.

Opened up their tflux4 page to find
This Account Has Been Suspended
Please contact the billing/support department as soon as possible.


lmao.

[tehmrserver]

Tomorrow they are selling their company to a new owner (admin told me)
