CAToday our entire account was closed… Today our entire account was closed without warning or reason. This brought down over 50 client websites. It took me 11 hours of effort contacting support to finally get the account reinstated. We got there in the end, but it was very frustrating as I was bounced around the call centre and was made promise after promise that was ignored. Proceed with caution.

GBRackspace was a nightmare Rackspace requires you to use specific hardware and migrate to newer equipment every 2 years. Every time you do rates increase. For us this was extremely disruptive. Migrating off Rackspace was very difficult. I gave notice, then was told Copying our data was extremely slow. I suspect they throttle data transfers. Getting a copy of our data on a USB was ridiculously difficult and took forever. Their trouble ticket system is annoying. Simple issues have to be referred to various departments. They required us to pay via ACH but then made billing errors. I still have an unresolved billing issue. They started closing tickets if I didn't respond immediately. Now they have terminated my online access to the support site and I no longer have access to the trouble ticket system.

DOThrowing money in a firepit would make me feel better than spending it with them Support makes a mistake and commits us to more licences that we need, for an annual subscription. Refuses to fix their mistake, technical managers get pulled in who promise credit notes but don't deliver. It's been over a year now, and numerous follow-ups, and still nothing. Our account manager just refused to deal with it. And now, after asking for the process to move away from them, just stops responding. This company has become a joke.

GBLong-standing customer... for a reason! We have been with Rackspace for a number of years, and have always found their service first class. The main thing for us is the technical backup from their brilliant team. Yes, Rackspace is more expensive than many other providers, but for organisations like ours where the website is 'mission critical' it is worth it. The 24/7/365 support of their highly knowledgeable technical team is invaluable.

GBFanatical Support? Not anymore. Abominable Support All the staff who knew what they were doing has been replaced by Indians, who have NO CLUE. Open a trouble ticket, nobody ever responds. Weeks and weeks go by. Issues aren't getting resolved. I'm done, making plans to exit Rackspace. It's difficult when you you're a reseller and have several hundred accounts, but it needs to happen unfortunately. Company is going down fast.
