ZapX and Lifetime Service
(24/10/27)
Their decisions regarding ZapX appear questionable.
They are converting servers already paid for into a subscription-locked arrangement.
For now, they claim migration is optional, yet in 99.9% of cases with similar shifts, users are eventually moved—perhaps in several years—to a new panel and compelled to pay a monthly fee.
They suggest it is not behind a paywall, but it effectively is; our data may remain, but the servers we purchased become unusable storage boxes from which extraction requires payment.
This is simply ridiculous, and I have heard a few companies discussing a joint lawsuit against Zap Hosting if Zap Hosting forces them into a subscription for lifetime service they already paid for.
I hope this lawsuit will happen in that case.
Do not use zap hosting for lifetime service, I can’t suggest it to anyone - even to my enemy.
UPDATE: (26/10/26)
On top of my previous review related to the lifetime service, I'd like to add that lifetime server owners are now being promoted to migrate, both via emails that result in at least 2–3 promotional messages being sent to us (which look like typical advertisements), and via a large banner on old panel, that cannot be hidden as of now, which is highly disruptive on mobile devices.
