AWFUL VPS FOR MT4, REFUSE TO REFUND WHEN BROKEN I upgraded to 12GB 4 core VPS charging £111 per month and it wouldn't even run 5 instances of MT4. The techs gaslit me telling me everything was fine and its not their problem if MT4 doesnt work. I couldn't click on any of them or update anything. I restarted, rebooted and did everything asked then asked for refund within 3 days notice. Their billing REFUSED to refund me despite my consumer rights! This is a truly terrible company that gaslights you when you have an issue then refuses to refund you even when you ask for a partial refund. Stay away if using for Forex! 100% not worth it and their techs admit it themselves they have no clue about MT4 and claim that even buying more memory and processors with them, doesnt mean it should work. I have everything in writing to prove their ridiculous claims and refusal to refund. Forget these guys!

I would never recommend using… I would never recommend using Hostwinds. They spout absolute rubbish. I purchase a VPS and change the hostname, set up nothing on the VPS but after 1 day I am added to an Abuse List, they cant tell me why! I know why, I was assigned an IP by them that was already on 6 blacklist monitors. They accuse me of spamming, I have never spammed anyone in my life. They then ask me for a picture of my ID and Credit card, not sure the storage of these images is legal, in this context, but it is so they can charge you $250 per hour at their own discretion. There whole system and attitude is as though I have done something wrong, they break their own T&C's treating customers like criminals. An absolute joke - use Racknerds or Contabo, at least they treat you with respect!!!!

I highly suggest you to not buy any of their windows VPS I highly suggest you to not buy any windows vps here. all ips are blacklisted. ATTENTION: Every services is autorenewal, so even if you dont want that services you have to cancel before it expired. YouTube has block their ip for unusual traffic as well. Pay attention. worst service ever.

So far So far, things are great. Before purchasing, I reached out to Hostwinds and asked several questions about features and functionality. They were all answered professionally, so I moved forward. I just left Hostblast due to poor communication and unpleasant surprises. I'm gladd to see that Hostwinds is on top of things.

Their support is spectacular Their support is spectacular - even when you're on a unmanaged server. If you write them on the chat, a real human will respond right away and those few times I've neede help, they've always been able to help and resolve the problem. 5 stars!
