Great platform with amazing support team!

Support team was able to help with my server issues with prompt swiftness, and problem was fixed without any interruption. "Sanji" was able to help me clarify on my server questions and was patient in replying to me in full detail.

Great platform to host Minecraft server with user-friendly UI, and great support team. Definitely recommend.

Ive been trying to open my free server…

Ive been trying to open my free server for the past 2 days, yet it still hasnt opened, even if i am in first queue, ive wasted 5 hours of my time waiting for it to open. This is a scam! they get you to watch their ads without your server opening.

The site immediately has several trackers to track your location and pops up so many ads its hard to see (there is a total of 30 immediately and increases from there) and the ads lie about a daily hosing limit but, aside from that it's fine

I liked the support

I liked the support, but it could be faster. Also the members of the staff said different things for me to do, that was a bit confusing. Overall fine tho.

I’ve had some problems with my account

I’ve had some problems with my account, and they have helped me to the best of their ability. Even though I made a mistake on the information i provided, they kept on trying to help, and in the end it finally worked out. Their servers are also very easy to set up and manage. They have lovely and helpful staff who try their best to help those in trouble. (Especially Sanji, and Federick)

ok but not more

If you choose the highest free server its quite ok for up to 4 people with some minor mods and if the server is running it works mostly well, but getting the server to start is a nightmare. The website is either not available with 404 error or so god damn slow, that it just times out. "Error timeout of 20000ms exceeded" you need to plan at least 30 mins extra to get to the page where you can finally start the server and hope to be lucky that the add loads and it doesnt time you out again...
