Virpus Networks Updates Model
August 29, 2006 — (WEB HOST INDUSTRY REVIEW) — Web hosting provider Virpus Networks (virpus.com) announced this week it has launched a new look, including a new Web site design and new logo, as well as a new business model.
Part of the change includes the integration of all the company’s services under one Web site, where previously it had offered each service through its own site at virpushosting.com, virpusservers.com and virpusnetworks.net.
Along with the release of its new site and the merging of its services, Virpus Networks launched a new VPS product line, dedicated server line and reseller hosting line. The company has re-branded its services with simpler names, changing Web hosting to Single-Site Hosting and reseller accounts to Multi-Site Hosting. The company hopes to attract the attention of more Webmasters and developers.
“The recent changes here at Virpus Networks were well needed, and this is just a start to even more changes that will be happening which have been outlined in our revised business plan for the rest of Q3 and the all of Q4,” says Kenneth Odem, Virpus Networks’ CEO.

Virpus are not to be trusted.
1. They accidentally delete VPS (with no restore and no credit despite their TOS)
2. They refuse to refund prepaid deposits (they claim these are their “intellectual property” although how a cash deposit can be intellectual property no one knows)
3. They terminate accounts randomly.
4. They do not reply to support tickets for days at a time.
5. They claim refund tickets sent to “billing” is the wrong department and should instead be sent elsewhere (no other option is given other than billing or sales and tickets sent to both come back with the nonsense about all prepayments are their “intellectual property)
Given that they also delete data randomly you need to stay away from VIRPUS and Kenneth Odem as far as you can.
