Sounds like the “fuck off” price. That or the accounts team used AI to re-evaluate prices based on ???
Just got a 250% increase. Called billing shocked – and was told that they are expecting people to be shocked. Sent an email and was assured some sort of response. Crickets.
How can we expect to resell with such a steep increase?
Fuck Rackspace. Spent the last 2 days setting up SoHo Mail and I couldn’t be happier. Amazing flexible tools and 1/12th the price. My first straw was when Rackspace started charging me (an e-mail only customer) with „Cloud hosting“ for like $39/mo or something and I was too wrapped up in projects to notice for over a year. I NEVER signed up for any cloud related services. Last straw was this shit. Good riddance.
I know a lazy dipshit that was paying $1250 a month for rackspace hosting for a web app with like 20 users a week, and vimeo was their video cdn. Who is actually using them.
I didn’t know they were still around and never knew they did email.
I had no idea anyone was still using them for email. I thought they got out of the email hosting business.
Edit: I know they stopped hosted Exchange, I thought they were out of the email hosting business completely a year or more after that. I thought they went back to being a pure co-lo.
