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.

I accidentally bought two servers.
I accidentally bought two servers, Customer support agent Jay B. Was able to merge my services and add the time from one to the other. I am very happy with this resolution and plan to continue using Shockbyte.

Horrible wait times, but great service.
The wait time to get an agent to even look at a ticket was atrocious. Two weeks before hearing anything back is crazy. That being said, when an agent finally got with me, they did all they could to resolve my issue. Jay B. was very respectful and responded quickly. For that alone, I'm not giving this a worse score. It should be a one, but Jay made it worthy of a four.

Not my first time using service
You have more less ~10 bucks per month on any game which is enough for me personally and I like control panel very intuitive
Btw they also have discounts so don’t sleep on Shockbyte

I am new to server hosting and was having issues accessing my server so my friends and I could play. The server was not appearing under my profile due to a silly typo mistake on my end when creating my account. Tom was able to quickly resolve it for me and was very responsive. Thank you again!

Brittany is exactly what you want from a customer and technical service standpoint. Any question I had, she was ready to provide answers and options to help make my Miencraft server exactly what I want it to be.
I've only had this server with Shockbyte for a couple days, and Brittany has already given my playgroup and I a wonderful experience.

Rust special skin
You are supposed to rent a server through the game in partnership with Shockbyte. I was unaware of this and got a server for a whole year with the medium package.
I asked, and David gave me a code for the skin regardless... AND full instructions on how to redeem it in steam. Excellent support and service, Ive been happy with my decision.

Ruben solved my issue quickly when I wasn't able to solve it using the AI's instructions. This is only a 5 star rating because Ruben was so helpful and answered my followup questions too so I actually understood what the issue was, so I could attempt to solve it myself if it ever comes up again. Ruben was great. The AI software and the time it took to actually get a live agent were not.
