These fraudsters refuse to take down a multitude of phishing domains hosted with themselves, unless they receive a request from Russian authorities! What a joke of a company, they should not even be allowed to host!

I have been with RU-Center for nearly two years now and love them. They are easy to use and provide great stability. They are, in my opinion, the best option if you need hosting in Russia. They are great.

If you have Autopay enabled, they will try to active "free" promotion services without your knowledge (such as Anti-Virus for the site, even if you just park your domain there). And they will charge your card TWICE to withdraw the...Read More amount for this service in advance for the next two years! And it will be a torture to return this money back since you will need to fill out a bunch of physical papers... Not fun at all! Seems like a dull management decisions to increase the cash flow. Dislike. I will definitely look for other registrars. These seem to be playing not fair games with their clients.Less
Slow, pricey, too low ram even for Wordpress, very slow control panel, but good support over the phone.
Everything started out well with them. They charge only $20/month for an empty CentOS virtual server with 40 GB of storage, which is pretty good, if you can figure out how to set up a server from scratch.
The problems arose whe...Read Moren someone submitted an abuse complaint to my DNS, CloudFlare, which was forwarded on to them. They immediately disabled my server. I asked if I could at least get the data off of it, and they wouldn't help; they said simply that they were not going to restore access to the server. Then they took action to snatch my domains too, saying that they needed me to prove my identity by mailing them a copy of my passport whose authenticity had been certified by the Russian embassy.
I lost about 300 man-hours of work because they wouldn't let me retrieve my data from the server, so I wasn't really about to trust them anymore as a domain registrar anyway. All I was doing was running forums and wikis that people complained about because the social commentary contained therein was controversial; there was nothing illegal or spammy or black hat or anything like that going on. Anyway, I don't see the point of doing business with a Russian webhost if they're not going to provide any protection against censorship.Less
