@CitadelServers
do not use this company! They lie about their service. Once you realize they have sold you false support and ask for a refund they tell you they will put it into a credit to use at their company! Lmao! What makes them think I'd use it for anything else Do Not use

I already setup a server with Citadel Servers for v rising, so far so good, they allow you to toggle settings in the game panel which makes it all easy, buddy of mine used them before and said it was good for that kind of thing as i have no idea how to setup myself and my wife is a major eco-nerd and won't let me leave the PC on 24/7 to host for friends.. lol

Absolute scammers.

I hired a server from Citadel for 2-3 months and cancelled back in May. Even though the service was no longer prodived, they've been taking £12 a month from my account ever since (6 months) and are refusing to give it back. Instead, they are saying my account now has "credit" and I can hire another server that I don't want or need.

I've never come across a company that keeps charging their customers after a service is cancelled. Additionally, I've never come across a company that refuses to refund when overcharging a customer and instead offering store credit. Absolute shambles. Avoid.

For those thinking of joining Citadel Servers -- don't. Rented a Subsistence Server from them that was not properly set up, wouldn't run in-game and gave errors despite saying it was running. Put in a ticket and waited with no reply when the server wouldn't work which was obviously a very urgent issue paying for something that doesn't even work on default setup. I had to delete all files they put on, download everything from the dev and setup myself to get it working halfway -- server still randomly stopped and started and kicked everyone from the game every 5-10 mins of play but we could log right back in as it was magically restarted and up. Finally after days of waiting for a reply and multiple ticket updates we get a one-line reply "random server stoppages should be fixed." No mention of all the crap I went through to set it up when they didn't do it in the first place. Also, you can forget a refund -- you get server "credit" -- why do I want credit on a service that is terrible to begin with? AVOID AT ALL COSTS - We will continue on our current payment until it runs out with them simply because we can't get a refund. I'll happily raise my review from 1 star if service gets better -- but I'm highly skeptical at this point. *Update: After about 3-4 days of it running decent it totally bombed again. Server totally crashes and gives errors, even when i go back to base install or my personal backup of the server -- it crashes. Waiting 2 days so far on a ticket to get it running again. Can I give this review no stars or negative stars?
*Update #2 - No response to any ticket to help with our server it's been almost 2 weeks -- they even closed one due to no response after a number of days when they didn't touch it -- the only notes on it are my updates and my issues? All we wanted was a server to play a game with a group of friends and it turned into three weeks of no server, issues and frustration with no responses from Citadel. Everyone stay away from this service, it's a clear scam.
Update #3 - A formal complaint was launched to PayPal to get a refund on this service. I can say that this was the quickest response I received from the company as they processed a refund, likely to get me out of their hair and I'm happy to be gone, in a matter of a day. My tickets were closed in the days following and I guess they have an automated process to solicit a review of how the ticket was handled. I assume this is just for show and won't be viewed by anyone seriously -- my response to Shea Sharrock who was handling my tickets was "I think the fact that I had to resort to a formal PayPal complaint against this company for the lack of support and lack of delivery of promised goods says it all. This was one of the single worst experiences I have had for trying to get a server/game/database loaded up and running from a third party company. I have moved to Nitrado and within 5 minutes I had bought, installed and was running my game on that server with no issues and it is still running!"
Update #4 - Formal complaint was launched and is now escalated to PayPal for resolution due to the lack of response from Citadel. They suspended my account quickly when this action was taken. This company has a history of doing this, please read all reviews and stay away.

Update #5 -- I thought I was done with this scamming server company after my PayPal resolution went through and I got my refund. A year later and they took another PAYMENT for a server I no longer have and an account I can no longer access on their site.

PLEASE IF YOU READ THIS STAY AWAY! WORST PROVIDER EVER.

Citadel Servers are a bunch of scammers with very poor server performance and even worse customer service. Beware, these guys will continue to charge your card even after cancellation. I had to cancel my debit card and dispute months of additional charges with my bank after I requested they cancel my account. I have yet to see whether or not I will receive my money back. Citadel refuses to offer a refund, only credit that can be used on their services. DO NOT USE THEIR SERVICES, YOU WILL REFRET IT IF YOU DO!

I was looking for a good affordable vps host and came across these guys, they offer both linux and windows vps at reasonable prices, got one in dallas and ping/latency is good, lots of configuration options
