If you have paid via paypal and used a credit card then you are covered by your card regardless of what paypal will say. You may also get some luck if you have paid from your bank account.

If paypal wont play ball then go straight to your card issuer.

If you paid with a Paypal balance then you have no chance

:k :k off to look at ovh server

 

[pankaj]

If it was other host, they would first of all move their sites immediately to another datacenter and bring that up.

They are just updating on twitter and no other updates which makes all of us afraid.

 

[okpaa]

they have knownserver.com
also knownserver.com/ is down

 

[gambitz]

You misspelled.. it's knowinservers.com and no it is not working!

 

[vincentfkc]

they own evobox.net

it working but not their server..

 

[pitbullvinnie]

my vps is originally evobox but my vps is down and has been all day.but all evobox servers got moved to rapidspeeds, this really frustrating and very odd X-(

 

[eddyj]

Actually the evoboxes vps were on servers that they bought from RS. RS ended up buying them out or whatever the financial deal was that they worked out a few months ago to take control of the brand. But evoboxes never had their own servers, they were always a part of RS in some form from the start.

@eddyj - that's right

This issue may take 12-18hours before it is fully resolved. No customers will be charged for their package during this downtime. Apologies.This issue may take 12-18hours before it is fully resolved. No customers will be charged for their package during this downtime. Apologies.

It's been more than 17 hours. I just wish there's more updates on Twitter. Lots of speculations going on...

 

[zxlin]

its been almost 18 hours but still got no update from RS...

 

[subha86]

hey.. when server is up ??? any know???

 

[escash official]

it's the first time in my 7 years online career when i hear about null routing the whole ISP's ip network because of a ddos. So for me it sounds rather suspicious.
But i hope that i'm mistaken.

 

[subha86]

@escash official

yes i m agree with you..

 

[kohkindachi]

Game Over?

 

[kennt]

I certainly hope not. They've been terrific so far. At least for me. I certainly wouldn't want this to be over especially with all my data.

 

[jbisana17]

26 minutes left before 18 hours downtime of rapidspeeds..
