Arvixe.com is a bloody scam webhosting company, they are Scam and ponzy schemes

company with fake offers..i would suggest everyone not to use Arvixe ..as they are

going to close your website after some time and all your hard work will go for a

toss...They are such a cheap and mean Host service with pathetic support..i will

tell you guys my experience....

Recently I read online about an offer by Arvixe for students on many forums and

websites that they are giving 6 months free host to students with ,edu email

accounts...its was everywhere so I gave it a try and opened an account using my

university email address with them...and was able to create an account....i never

share my university email address with everyone as its private and confidential

but considering that this company seemed good....i opened an account and

registered my domain with them...Which was my biggest mistake..

After registering the email account I got a verification email on my .edu account

and also on my Gmail account for the confirmation including the website details

which I made..it was all good till that point.I was able to create the account.

Please check these images to see the real face of Arvixe...

The email I received

another email with my domain name and hosting confirmation

http://tinypic.com/r/28i6cfd/5

My .edu university account email address control panel

http://tinypic.com/r/2e3937p/5

All email I received on my real .edu email account

http://tinypic.com/r/2whlgut/5

After getting all the emails on my regular and ,edu student email account I was

glad that they are real and created my account and I started building my

website..so I logged in my account and checked all the details...but there was one

issue

It was showing my account unverified and there were 2 option either to verify by

using credit card or giving my ID proof.i was more comfortable with the ID

proof..but there was no way to share the CC details as I was given the account

under student offer without any cost....i didn't have any credit card to

verify...so ..i clicked on the chat support


The executive first tried to redirect me again on the same portal but when I

requested that its a free account and I don't have a bank card...then the

executive said he cant help me and I need to wait ..and transferred me to another

Sr. agent...after waiting for more then 30 minutes the other Rep replied and said

that they are going to do manual verification so 1 email has been sent on my .edu

account to verify with my user name and last 4 digit from the password..

I got this email and I replied back instantly with my details...but Crap after 15

minutes agent said they didn't receive the email...so I was blank that what the

hell is going on..i just replied ..

I had to reply 3 times but still agent said they will update me whenever they will

get the email.i kept my patience and left it for 2 hours to get there

response...Thank God after 2 hours I received this email from these people

I was glad and made up my mind to create a good first website by me.also I was not

worried to share my .edu email account and was sure that these are good people and

the company is legitimate...but it turned into my biggest nightmare..

for 2 days there was no issue with the site and I was able to check it very often

during the day ..everything was all set.

day

In summary, I would not recommend Arvixe to a friend.
