NLScaleway deleted all of our resources after failed payment <20 euro Scaleway deleted all of our resources just 20 days after a payment of less than 20 euros failed on our credit card. Unfortunately, their emails ended up in the wrong mailbox, and we failed to see them on time. Even so, this situation is quite unreasonable. A Kubernetes cluster, several S3 storage buckets, loadbalancers, everything is gone and unrecoverable.

NLRebooted my dedicated server to lose… Rebooted my dedicated server to lose all my data You'd think I wouldn't fall for it twice, but the small dedicated servers they offer are very prone to failure. After several years, rebooting just kills them. Support can't do anything because all the nodes/blades are in the same unit and it would disrupt other customers.

GBCheap, okay performance, you get what you pay for I've been using Scaleway on and off over 8 years, they're certainly getting better, but I think they should just stick to what they were good at. Cheap boxes. Support is slow and generally unhelpful, but you get what you pay for. I use Scaleway for dev projects or things that aren't going to stay around for long. Performance is ... average. Again, you get what you pay for. Image marketplace could be better IMHO, but it is what it is. I definitely wouldn't put anything production, business-oriented, or important on the platform. I've stuck with them because they're cheap and meet my needs if I want something to tinker with

GBTHE WORST SERVICE Really the worst, worst service ever. They perform maintenance on the servers without notice, causing the service to go offline all together. I logged into the backend and it showed IP migration, thinking it was an IP failure that prevented me from connecting. Instead, when I clicked on it, it automatically moved to a flexible IP, charged a high fee and canceled the original public IP. Geez, what kind of design is this? It's a trap.

MTHidden Costs and Indifferent Customer Service at Scaleway Be cautious of hidden costs with Scaleway. Their billing practices obscure transparency, making it challenging to track expenses due to some chargeable services not being visible in the user dashboard. Additionally, certain services are sometimes billed monthly, contrary to their advertised daily or lesser frequency. It is advisable to confirm any pricing with the helpdesk before utilizing services. My primary concern revolves around the lack of honesty and clarity in Scaleway's billing. Unexpected fees appeared on my bill without any prior indication or listing, casting doubt on the trustworthiness of [Provider Name]. This opacity, combined with a customer service team that appears indifferent to customer grievances, significantly erodes confidence in their services. If you're considering Scaleway, it is crucial to diligently monitor your bill for unforeseen charges and be prepared for a customer service experience that may fall short of providing adequate support and resolution.
