I wanted to like Vultr. I gave them a fair chance but then they changed the IP on my VPS without telling me. It changed from a Swedish IP to an American IP overnight and left me confused in every way.

Everything broke and support wasn't willing to explain what happened. It felt like they decided my account was suspicious and they routed all my traffic through some firewalled/monitored egress to inspect my traffic. I couldn't even SSH in, I had to go the the dashboard and grab the IP they had reassigned to my host.

Really? That sounds extremely shitty. As a customer of Vultr, it makes me a bit scared, but during the 5~ or something years I've used them, that never happened to me.

You'd be doing everyone a service by continuing to dig out a reason for why that happened, and if they don't provide it, lambast them over social media or something so they do provide some sort of justification.

It happened probably 6-7 months ago and worse yet, services I had downstream actually were sensitive to the geolocation of the caller. Fortunately I caught it quickly enough when someone I was working with tried to SSH into the host and couldn't.

Surely the account was being paid via cryptocurrency however it was already verified through the linking of an actual traditional credit card like they required.
