Information about my company joining and what I was doing was given away to third parties that also have a server here.
I thought data protection was a thing and I'm very disappointed that this company did not uphold this.
this is why I moved to another provider.

Hello John,

I'm very surprised to hear this as we have strict data protection policies in place and regard it with upmost importance.

I would like to speak to you further to try and identify what has happened here and try and clear up any confusion. Please reach out to hello@gofreshstart.co.uk quoting "TrustPilot" in the subject line and I'll be happy to speak with you personally.

Kind regards,

My review for FreshStart

Everything here is perfect at FreshStart. Support, prices everything. The only "bad" thing I noticed is that my product took longer than normal to activate.

Minecraft Server

I purchased a Minecraft server from FreshStart hosting and it is honestly amazing. Ollie was very helpful with the issues I had with my bank card.

My review on FS

First of all wow there prices are amazing and affordable takes there time to help out with stuff they are not required to do
I would recommend to anyone looking for good and affordable hosting.

Improvements:

1) hire more support
2) add a mod manager for garrys mod hosting
3) Add fastdl for garry’s mod servers

Other than that it’s a 10/10 from me

Hey DarkDevil,

Thanks so much for your feedback! It's awesome to hear that you were happy with our service provided at a pricepoint you were happy with too. Thank you also for providing us with some areas to improve upon, this really helps us out. I'll address each of your points individually and let you know what we're doing to address each, as I think it's really important that we act upon all the feeback we recieve:

1) We believe that it's better to receive a complete resolution in fewer replies rather than having many first level support representatives who will provide a near instant response for more basic questions but will need to forward your query over to someone else to resolve technical questions. However, I do admit that we do need more of these knowledgeable people to improve our response time in some cases, so we'll work on finding the right person to make an addition to the FreshTeam based upon your feedback!

2) This is a much requested feature, so we'll be working to add it to our panel very soon!

3) We've seen successful installations of FastDL before, however this is definitely possible to add to our panel to make it easier to use, so I'll look into that for you personally and hopefully get it added to the panel very soon.

Thank you once again for giving us some constructive areas to improve upon, I really appreaciate it!

Have a good one,
Ollie

Great prices, great products, great support

This is honestly one of the best server hosts out there. I ordered a dedicated server from them which said up to 3 days delivery but I was up and running within 2 hours thanks to Ollie the CEO via their Discord. The prices are perfect and are cheap while not sacrificing on the quality of their products. Overall, they offer great service backed with the great support they have provided me to get my server set up.

If you are in the market for a new server of any type, do give these guys a shot, you won’t regret it.

Thank you so much for your glowing and highly detailed review! Feedback like this lets us know that we're on the right track, especially with a fairly new product line as our dedicated servers are. I'm glad I was able to help you get everything setup quickly and that we could offer you a server at a pricepoint you're happy with!

We're always here to help, just let us know if you need anything else 😄

Hello there,

Thanks so much for taking the time to leave your feedbak on our TrustPilot page! It's great that you've found our DDoS protection to be top notch - unlike other hosts at a similar price point we use some of the most advanced protection available that will seamlessly filter out almost all attacks, instead of simply shutting the server down. It's also awesome to hear you're getting a fantastic ping for a server not in your region - however we do have a number of locations available, so if you're looking to move your server somewhere a bit closer to home just give us a shout!

If you need anything else, please don't hesitate to get in touch with me or a member of the FreshTeam.

Have a good one,

100/10 Hosting company

100/10 Hosting company. Amazing support. DDoS protection has filtered out all attacks on my server, I won't lose players because a silly kid from the UK wants to kill my community and bigger companies have slower response times and would not help me at all during a critical time like this for my community with attackers as persistent as this. This is now my new favorite hosting company and will recommend this to all my friend looking to make a server!

We run currently a minecraft plan and it is ran very smooth they even assist with you setting it up if you’re having any trouble. Would definitely recommend their services to anyone looking to host a gaming server/web hosting or similar!

Hey there Tom,

Firstly, thanks for taking the time to provide us with your valuable feedback!

We sincerely apologise we weren't able to serve you on this occasion, however this is due to our fraud prevention tool "FraudLabs Pro" flagging your order as potentially high risk. In order to protect ourselves from fraudulent payments and our customers from misuse of shared services, we do have to employ these measures to keep everything running smoothly. I regret that in this case you were blocked by this tool, however it's better safe than sorry when it comes to important matters such as this. I would also advise you not to create additional accounts under different details as you did before to try and circumvent these measures.

In any case, thank you for choosing FreshStart to host your services, even if we weren't able to help this time! If you have any further questions, don't hesitate to drop us a line at hello@gofreshstart.co.uk and we'll be happy to help 😄

Kind regards,

You can't go wrong with FreshStart Hosting!

The service is really active and can solve your problem no matter what. Staff here are very nice and explain everything that needs to be explained. I personally have a FiveM server and a Teamspeak server off them so they have 99.9% up time with really good prices and decent spec servers. You really can't go wrong with FreshStart Hosting!
