Did they give unsustainable LowEndForum deals or something? Their pricing is average ($5~/GB) according to their site.

Sounds about right.
This is/was a provider that frequented the OGF, not here at LES, correct ?

I just renewed 10 days ago (paid by yearly), and already submit ticket but no reply for 24 hours.

I decided to open a paypal dispute if there is no refund after service closed

As far as I know, correct. LET is so awful lately I have started to avoid supporting it with any content lest anyone think I'm a fan of what is going on over there. Was hoping posting it here it reached enough people that cared about it.

I am happy that you decided to post it here. I wish more people would post issues from any provider good or bad here on LES so we would not miss anything by not going to the OGF. I didn't think for a minute that your thread was problematic. I was looking to see if this provider had a tag here, and when I could not find one, I just wanted to double check with you that the provider was not here on LES. Thanks again for posting this.
