My experience with Shockbyte so far has been extremely disappointing. It began with an attempt to transfer my server from the East Coast to the West Coast. The process stalled during the database migration and showed no signs of progress. Despite submitting a support ticket, I’ve received no response for nearly 72 hours (and at the time of writing, still no update).Frustrated with the delay, I decided to drop the empty database and reattempt the server transfer without it. While the transfer was successful this time, the assigned IP address was not reachable from the internet - even after multiple restarts and a full server reset. I submitted another ticket for this issue, which has now been sitting unanswered for over 72+ hours.The AI support agent has been completely unhelpful, providing only generic responses that don’t apply to the current context. Attempts to escalate to a human representative have gone nowhere.As someone with over 20 years in tech, I can confidently say this is one of the least responsive support experiences I’ve had - even compared to the early 2000s.
