Hi all,
I have been in dispute with internetvps.com for over three months, following lack of service and support between 30th May - 14th June 2009, which I believe to be deliberate.
I could not get any response for over two weeks. Emails ignored, while tickets were maliciously deleted on a daily basis to my frustration. A similar, but shorter, experience happened only a few weeks earlier which I had to lodge a dispute through paypal. On this occasion he restored the service and I felt obliged to close the dispute.
Considering the prior incident which no response was received for three days, I decided to move to a different provider 1st June 2009 notifying internetvps.com by email the same day. Since then, I have sent numerous communications asking internetvps.com to explain why I had no service nor contact from the company for two weeks and requested a full refund. To date, I have not received any explanation or refund.
I have become so hacked-off with the situation I acquired all the internetvps.* web names and posted some screen shots so other people didn't fall into the same trap.
I have had a recent email conversation with internetvps.com and have been told the same repetitive excuse that any request for an explanation is considered "non-sense" and I am now being offered a meagre $20 refund in contrast to the $120.00 paid on account.
Initially I was refused any kind of refund, instead internetvps.com had the audacity to offer me a service credit, constituting nothing more than an extension of the same treatment. However, I explained that I had left for another provider and I would have to consider reselling the service credit and existing payment on account to other individuals.
With this in mind, I asked what liability internetvps.com would have if Jason Nguyen decided to go A.W.O.L for another two weeks leaving me with screaming clients. Again, I was told my question was "non-sense".
I would not be complaining if I was left without service for two weeks while being informed on a daily basis about the reason and time expected to fix the error. I understand sometimes "**** happens" and a small business can find it hard to cope. However, we are talking about a one man company that proactively ignores emails and deletes tickets on a daily basis. Coincidentally, all these problems occurred after making a "good will gesture" payment on account.
Despite the unpleasant experience with internetvps, the outcome resulted in finding a better provider.
I hope other people find this info helpful.
