Nitrado - www.nitrado.net

I have been a loyal customer of Nitrado for nearly two years, spending over $2,000 monthly to host a large gaming community. Recently, my servers were abruptly terminated without warning or clear evidence of any alleged Terms of Service violations. Despite reaching out multiple times to their support team, I have only received vague responses, with no transparency or opportunity to address the supposed issues.

This sudden and unjustified termination has disrupted my community, caused financial loss, and damaged my reputation. As a paying customer in good standing, I expect fair treatment, detailed explanations of any concerns, and the chance to rectify them if necessary. Nitrado's handling of this situation has been highly unprofessional and raises serious questions about their business practices.

I am deeply disappointed and urge others to carefully consider their choice of hosting provider. I hope Nitrado will take responsibility and work to resolve this matter. Until then, I cannot recommend their services.

I've never been more angry, frustrated and annoyed at this game server provider. Their technical support really is absolutely dreadful.

I recently raised a support ticket to get Nitrado to investigate why my game server had stopped working. After 2 weeks of waiting, finally, they email me and told me that they don't support my game 'Left 4 Dead' anymore. I received no advanced notification from them telling me that my game server was not supported anymore. They just took my server down without warning me whatsoever. I still had 81 days runtime left on my server too. This just goes to show how much Nitrado really doesn't care about their customers.

After this latest fiasco with them, I've now stopped using Nitrado altogether, and I will never ever use their service ever again. I just find it hard to believe the 5-star ratings others have given here, considering how bad my experiences (recently and in the past) have been with this awful company.

Firstly, I'm going to be fair to Nitrado: Their game servers when they perform well are great to play on. I've been a loyal customer of theirs for 3.5 years without any performance issues as such. However, all that changed for me on the 17th December 2019.

I had to contact customer support, because I couldn't connect to my server anymore. I was immediately informed by Nitrado that the Left 4 Dead game on my host server was not patched to the latest version, which consequently stopped all my member-players from connecting to my game server.

This could have been a very simple fix, and all that was required was to patch the game from version 1.0.3.1 to 1.0.3.8. - something that could have been easily fixed within days, instead of many weeks.

Over the next few weeks I kept trying to reconnect to the server hoping it would be fixed, but it never got fixed. I kept emailing for an update as to when the server would be fixed. But I got no feedback. Then on the 9th Jan I tried reinstalling the L4D game for myself - and to my shocking surprise it had the latest patch applied. So why in hell didn't Nitrado's tech support fix this sooner and report this back to me and tell me a fix had been applied to the server?! And at what point did this fix get applied?!

I've finally got my modded server running again - but only through my own efforts, I also had to rebuild my modded-server with its many addons and also had to re-upload 13.5Gb of custom maps. That was a lot of extra work for me, and something that Nitrado could have easily fixed for me if they had been supportive to my pleas for help in the emails I sent them.

Nitrado's tech support has been a very bad experience for me, causing me prolonged stress and much anxiety over these past 3-weeks. This is extremely poor service from Nitrado! And that why their tech-support gets a 1-star rating from me. :(
