They nuked my server and all its data because of a fake address
I spent a full day migrating my project from a free host to my first—and obviously now my last—VPS at OVH, hoping for something more stable and professional. The irony is so thick it’s suffocating.
Yes, I used a fake address for signup. I live in an active war zone. Addresses here are theoretical.
Here’s what “professional” looks like at OVH:
Silent termination. No email. No ticket. My service just went dark without a note. I spent hours trying to diagnose it—SSH failed, the client panel said “login incorrect,” password recovery sent nothing. Radio silence. My project was just gone.
I had to hunt down their Twitter account to learn I’d been permanently banned by "fraud prevention" team. No prior contact. No chance to explain, verify, or even back up my data. Their support’s response was a robotic: “Account closed. We’re sorry for the inconvenience.” You weren’t sorry. You were indifferent.
Punishment: total data annihilation. My crime? A fabricated address. Not spam, not abuse, not illegal content. A form field. Your response? To incinerate my VPS and every hour of work I’d put into it. Now I get to spend another day rebuilding from zero—because OVH values checkbox compliance over human context.
-------
Update. Issue resolved. I got my data from the VPS, which is back online with all my data intact. While the initial suspension was quite stressful, it was rather justified. The support team showed flexibility and effort to resolve the situation properly. Their servers are fast, affordable, and the service has been solid.
Lesson learned: Provide accurate information from the start to reduce the chance of issues.

Hello Viacheslav,
Thank you for providing feedback via TrustPilot. We are sorry for the inconvenience.
As stated in our general terms and conditions of sale and our contracts, the information you need to enter into an OVHcloud Control Panel must be precise and verifiable, in order to ensure the security of your accounts and transactions: https://www.ovhcloud.com/en-ie/terms-and-conditions/contracts/
During an identity check, if the information entered in the OVHcloud Control Panel is non-compliant or incomplete, we ask our customers to update this information.
However, if no regularization is implemented, we close the account for security reasons, and I am sorry.
Due to political conflicts, financial instability or UN sanctions, we are also not providing services in some countries.
This decision did not come from OVHcloud, but rather from international organizations such as the UN (non-exhaustive list).
In order to analyze the various difficulties encountered as well as the difficulties encountered, I invite you to respond to the request for information that I have just sent you. You can reply by sending me your OVHcloud account ID (xx12345-ovh).
If you have a pending request, I can restart the service concerned.
I thank you for your understanding, and I will remain at your disposal.
I look forward to your return and wish you a good day.
Your OVHcloud advisor.

Update 07/01/2025 :
Thank you for the additional information you have provided.
After analyzing your request, I note that the customer account in question does not comply with our general terms and conditions of service and has been closed by our account security team.
As stated in our contracts, when account security is at stake and the use of our services is not in compliance, we are obliged to close the service and the account without possibility of refund.
I understand that this answer may be disappointing, but I would like to emphasize that it is contractual and legitimate, in accordance with our contracts: https://www.ovhcloud.com/en/terms-and-conditions/contracts/
I also escalated the internal request to our security service for additional information.
Thank you for your understanding, and our teams remain at your disposal.
Best wishes,
Your OVHcloud advisor.
^LaiM
---
Following the return of our security team, I confirm that the account has been closed, as the information is not properly filled in and that it did not allow the contract to continue securely.
Within 24:00 to 48:00, your customer account will then be reopened to update this information.
I will ask you to provide your account with accurate and verifiable information so that you can continue with the contract.
If an identity check is carried out by our security team, please send us the documents corresponding to the information provided (ID card, proof of address less than three months old).
Thank you for your understanding.
I look forward to our return and wish you a good day.
Your OVHcloud advisor.

Don't use OVH services
I was happy with the performance and stability of my OVH VPS. However, trying to cancel the service was a nightmare. They did not honor my termination request and kept deducting monthly payments. Despite my efforts with their accounts and support teams, the issue was never properly resolved. I've used several other VPS providers without these problems. OVH makes it so difficult to leave that it completely ruins the overall experience and any chance of me coming back.

URGENT: FORMAL NOTICE OF DISPUTE – Unjust Enrichment & Demand for Pro-Rata Refund
"Unjust Enrichment and Zero Accountability: A Warning to Business Users"
I am writing this review to warn potential customers against paying for long-term plans with OVHcloud. My experience has been nothing short of a disaster.
The Situation: I prepaid for a 1-year VPS subscription to host a testing environment for my company. Approximately 7 days into the service, the server was compromised. Instead of offering a rescue mode or a standard mitigation solution, OVH unilaterally terminated the contract and permanently deleted the server.
The Financial Abuse: While I accept their right to terminate a compromised service, I do not accept theft. OVH has refused to refund the remaining 358 days of the prepaid subscription. They effectively charged me for a full year of service but only delivered one week. Legally and ethically, this constitutes "Unjust Enrichment." They are retaining funds for a service they explicitly refused to render.
The Support Nightmare: The post-termination support is a bureaucratic loop designed to make you give up:
Tech Support refuses to help, claiming it's a "Sales issue."
Sales Department is unreachable. They do not accept tickets, and the "Request a Callback" feature is non-functional (no one called back).
Account Lockout: To make matters worse, I am now locked out of my account. The "Password Reset" emails are never sent, effectively cutting off my only communication channel to reclaim my funds.
Verdict: OVH has taken my money, terminated my service without a pro-rata refund, and ghosted me. If you value your consumer rights and your budget, DO NOT pay annually. You risk losing your entire investment if they decide to pull the plug.
Date of Incident: December 2025 Transaction Dispute: Initiated.

Reply to your answer
I am in receipt of your reply dated 07Jan 2026, the content of which is wholly unacceptable and legally baseless. Your attempt to hide behind "Terms of Use" to justify the misappropriation of prepaid funds for services never rendered will not be tolerated.
1. Vicarious Liability and Victim Blaming: Your assertation that my account was closed due to "abusive use" is a distortion of reality. The security compromise occurred due to the vulnerability of the infrastructure provided. By failing to offer standard mitigation protocols (such as Rescue Mode or Traffic Scrubbing) and instead opting for immediate termination, OVHcloud is punishing the victim for a crime committed against them. You are effectively penalizing a customer for the inadequacy of your own defensive measures.
2. Unjust Enrichment and Lack of Consideration: While you reserve the right to terminate service, you do not have the legal right to confiscate funds for the remainder of a contract you refused to honor. I paid for 365 days of service and received approximately 7 days. Retaining the balance for the remaining 358 days constitutes "Unjust Enrichment" under international commercial law principles. You are retaining a financial benefit without providing the corresponding service (Consideration), which renders this aspect of your Terms of Use unconscionable and legally void.
3. Arbitrary & Draconian Practices: By acting as judge, jury, and executioner, OVHcloud has adopted a predatory stance akin to asset seizure without due process. Unilaterally declaring a breach of contract to justify keeping a customer’s annual prepayment is not "security compliance"—it is, in effect, corporate piracy. No legitimate business operates by confiscating a client's entire investment based on a single, remediable security incident.
4. Final Demand: I demand an immediate pro-rata refund for the unused period of my subscription.
Failure to remit these funds, will leave me no choice but to:
File a formal chargeback with my financial institution citing and VISA "Services Not Received."
Report these predatory billing practices to relevant consumer protection agencies and telecommunications regulators.
Escalate this matter publicly to warn other potential enterprise clients of the financial risks associated with OVHcloud.

Hello Omar,
Here's the translation:
I'm sorry to hear about the closure of your account.
OVHcloud pays particular attention to the security of its systems and customers.
Please refer to our terms of use:
https://www.ovhcloud.com/en-gb/terms-and-conditions/contracts/
In the event of non-compliance with these conditions, an account may be suspended and services stopped. For example, a customer who orders a VPS for the first time and uses it in an abusive manner, generating abuse, may see their server suspended and their account locked.
Certain situations may vary depending on the severity of the actions taken and other parameters. Our teams do their best to assist you effectively in each situation.

While purchasing a server and after…
While purchasing a server and after entering my credit card details, I was surprised by a $160 charge. When I contacted support, they told me I had ordered a Public Cloud with 52 instances, which I never did and never used. This looks like a hacking or unauthorized action, yet OVH allowed it and charged me anyway. Now support is taking forever without giving a clear solution.

OVH banned my server without warning or…
OVH banned my server without warning or any real attempt to assist. Instead of notifying me about suspicious activity or guiding me through securing the system as a new customer, the only response I received was a generic line: “you should secure your system.”
That isn’t support.
A responsible provider flags issues, informs the client, and helps prevent escalation especially when dealing with paying customers who are still learning the platform. Mistakes happen, and proper communication prevents them from turning into shutdowns.
OVH terminated my service, kept the payment, offered no explanation of the root cause, and left me unable to correct or avoid the issue in the future. What’s worse: even after banning and closing the VPS, the subscription wasn’t cancelled. So the system would continue billing me unless I noticed and manually stopped it. If the contract is truly terminated and the VPS permanently closed, then the subscription should not remain active.
That combination no warning, no guidance, no transparency, no refund, and ongoing billing is not how a company builds trust or retains customers.

Poor Management - Doesn’t Responds, Gaslights
Worked with OVH and never had a problem with them. Starting late September they started having issues with their BSH8 data center in Canada. It took them about 2 weeks to resolve the issue. Afterwards about another few weeks later they continue to face issues. Rather than apologize and try to help us, they gaslight into telling us we caused the problem even though I’ve talked to multiple business owners on the same node and we are all having issues. Currently the server is unreachable and support is not responding to any messages.
