Over 1.5 Months Waiting for a Dedicated Server – Still No Delivery
I ordered and paid for a dedicated server with cryptocurrency. The estimated provisioning time was approximately one week.
More than 1.5 months have now passed, and the server has still not been delivered.
During this time I have repeatedly contacted support. Each time I received similar responses:
* they were checking with colleagues;
* they were waiting for hardware components;
* they had not forgotten about my order;
* my next billing date would be extended after activation.
Unfortunately, none of these updates included a specific delivery date, and after several replies the support team would disappear for days before responding again with another generic update.
I understand that hardware shortages and delays can happen. What I do not understand is accepting payment for a service with an estimated one-week delivery time while being unable to provide any realistic provisioning date for over six weeks.
At the time of writing, I have still received neither:
* the server I paid for, nor
* a definite activation date.
If you are considering ordering a dedicated server here, be aware that the actual waiting time may be dramatically longer than advertised, and if you pay with cryptocurrency you should understand that you do not have the protection of a card chargeback.
I sincerely hope FairyHosting resolves this situation, but based on my experience I cannot recommend their dedicated server service.
