After the initial wait, Tom Hancock was very helpful and quick to respond. No waiting around after the initial contact was made or needing to provide hard to get information. Handled my ticket great.

Support went the extra mile to save our world
I host a big modded Minecraft server (Prominence II: Hasturian Era) through Discord's Shockbyte hosting. We spent about 5 days pre-generating a large world for our players, and near the end I ran into the 100 GB storage limit.
I opened a ticket and the AI assistant replied instantly and escalated it to the technical team. The human reply took a bit longer because they were busy, and at first the advice was to trim the world to fit their Fair Use limit, which was fair. But after I explained our situation, the team increased the storage on my instance, so we didn't lose days of progress.
Luke from support was polite and patient the whole time. Big thanks to him and the technical team! The server panel is also easy to use and makes managing mods and settings simple.

I do not recommend this server hosting site
Hosted server did not work as advertised, submitted support ticket and it took them 14 days to respond. They never fixed the issue. I do not recommend this server hosting site.
EDIT: They did not reach out to me, they gave a partial refund and closed out all access to the server. Go elsewhere for server hosting.
