Please don't buy. Won't recommend using it. I used for training 7 models. For all of them, the cells (cpu process) took longer than other service like google colab. For example, loading a pretrained model from hf. It took around 20 sec for me to load and finish running the cell in colab. The runpod paused. Used an L40. It it pauses for around 5 min. Happens almost all the time. Had to delete the pod and recreate another pod. Which again adds unnecessary cost. Overall, they are theif.

Initiating charges without obtaining… Initiating charges without obtaining explicit consent and subsequently denying refunds constitutes a serious breach of U.S. legal standards.

Best customer service ever Best customer service ever, no long emails, no phone calls, no scripts, hop on the discord server and chat with the support tech like you talk to your friends. also the tempelate docker images are super useful. i just had to use the default one to get my project going.

Very positive experience Very positive experience, the service and the price are unmatched. RunPod being very reactive and involved in the ML and AI Art communities makes them a great choice for people who want to tinker with machine learning without breaking the bank. The very helpful and friendly support from the team is also a big plus when you're trying to get things set up.

Very responsive The owner of runpod are very responsive, very keen on making changes and improve user experience. Also willing to listen. Nice user interface with artpod, whoever help design the UI for artpod need a raise :)
