rude customer service, terrible billing practices Cancellation policy is extortionist. Support takes forever to reply. Cancellation requests take forever to be dealt with. Took two months to get an updated invoice. I'm now worried that, despite closing the account, they are still going to charge me next year. "There is no point in arguing.

FLUIDHOSTING IS A VERY BAD JOKE We stayed with these jokers for about 10 years because the VPS we from them only had our test websites on them. They actually started off pretty good, but went totally down hill year after year after year. Forget support. You can call them, but they never answer, so if your stuck, your just stuck because you will not get any help in a timely manner from them. They make you sign onto the sever to enter a support ticket, which is deadly if your server is down and you cannot log on. Billing is atrocious. every single month plan on getting spammed with billing emails. They send an email for every single step of the billing process. That means every single month you get 7 or 8 emails for the same bill. Worse there is something wrong with their system. When a credit card expires and you update the expiration date, it stops billing automatically. Their Preauth email starts sending emails saying "Preauth transaction finished with error", but the card is charged. After 10 yeas with this inept business, they sent an email saying that our server has been stopped at 11:30 at night. I went right to the server signed on. The websites had been deleted, along with the databases and a message said I owed $50, which was 1 month. I once again updated the credit card and clicked to pay the $50. It said it completed, but still showed I owed the $50, so I clicked to pay again and once again it showed it completed, but once again still showed I owed $50. Naturally I could not call these people or person (they act like a 1 man operation). I had no choice, but to just upload our test sites to our other VPS with InMotionHosting.com (inmotionhosting is a super hosting site and yes, I highly recommend it. Fluidhosting emails are also a joke. They are all noreply. It does not matter if they are billing or support emails, you cannot reply to any of them. In short, run don't walk from fluidhosting. One of the worst business I have ever had to deal with. I have not been this angry in over 20 years.

Absolutely Awful - Steer Clear of Fluid Hosting I was a Fluid Hosting VPS customer for over 10 years. Initially their service was outstanding. That degraded gradually over the years until "abysmal" would be a charitable description. They ultimately told me that I'd have to upgrade because they were shutting down the hardware I was on. I moved my website to another provider, and told FH to terminate my service and refund my money. They currently owe me over $700 which they want to give me as a service credit, and they don't even offer the service I need! Steer clear of these dishonest clowns.

Never, ever, purchase services from Fluid Hosting Never, but NEVER use fluidhosting.com. I was a loyal customer for many years, paid all bills on time. Once I decided to terminate service after a completely unusable WP hosting service, I have been denied a refund, as well as being charged for a service I had already cancelled months back. Fluid Hosting now owes me 2 refunds for over 3 months and the response is either silence or "we will get back asap". Dave, from billing (perhaps not even a real person) is always "on tour". This is complete and absolute EXTORTION.

After a decade, being refused service (forced to leave) When I signed up with them a decade ago the service was perfectly acceptable, though one thing that really annoyed me was the spammy dozen invoice/payment emails every month -- something that was never improved. As time went on, their support department became closer and closer to non-existent. Support tickets would take quite a bit of time to receive a response, if at all. Their automatic payment system eventually stopped working for me and I'd manually pay via PayPal each month. Last month, even though I fully paid money owed, my account was stuck in arrears with my VPS subscription in "graced state" meaning if they don't check their PayPal account within the billing month and confirm that I've paid, my account will be suspended and I could lose my VPS. I spent the entire month regularly getting in touch via the online chat feature asking them to look at my support ticket, constantly being told they've sent a message to their supervisor or billing department manager, neither of whom I suspect has a pulse because I received no response or resolution thus far! In two to three days from now my account will be suspended and I will lose access to my VPS, my emails, etc. I doubt their support team will be any less unhelpful in getting my account back up an running when that happens. I'm a customer who's now effectively being refused service, in what I suspect is a systematic purge of all legacy VPS customers, since they've recently moved to some new VM-hosting system. Too much of a coincidence to be anything else. Also, if anyone is wondering, my VPS is a low-end one and my usage is light to moderate, not heavy or disruptive in any way. Their prices aren't good anyway, much better, cheaper VPSes out there, offering more memory, faster disk, more bandwidth, etc. The only reason I haven't left FluidVPS already was to avoid the hassle of a migration. STAY AWAY! tl;dr: Spammy invoices / payment issues / support team jerks you around / you could lose access to your VPS for no reason.
