| At least AWS doesn't start spamming you weeks after servers go down! I canceled a dedicated server with IBM SoftLayer (nee ThePlanet), and a few weeks later I started receiving hourly IPAlerts about it being offline! The server was canceled so there was nowhere in the interface for me to turn them off! I opened a ticket, and they said other users were experiencing it too, and they though they had it fixed, and asked it I was still getting them. I was. Their only suggestion was for me to make an email filter to ignore the IPAlerts, but what about the IPAlerts for servers I hadn't canceled that I actually want to see? We went several rounds of this, each time they thought they had it fixed, and asked if I was still receiving them, and of course I was, like clockwork. It's been more than a week and a half, and I'm STILL getting them! I kept posting the raw email bodies so they could tell by the headers where it was coming from. I even begged them to deploy one of their most powerful firewalls around the offending legacy nagios server to protect me from it, but they wouldn't do that. I'm afraid if I cancel my other two servers and move to AWS, they's start spamming me with TWO MORE never-ending sets of IPAlerts about canceled servers! What a passive-aggressive way of punishing long time customers for canceling their servers! Has anybody experienced anything like this with AWS? Received: from ipalert05.dllstx6.inside.theplanet.com
