Good service as long as you are a paying member. Once you try to close or cancel your account, certain problems occur. If you have two credit or debit cards, they will stop charges on the one you used to keep and close your account with, then sneak in and continue charging the other card without your knowledge! And getting refunds is impossible!

I've used the service for 5 years now and have had not one issue the entire time. Have been very impressed. Retention rates are the best and speeds and customer support are awesome. Definitely the best Usenet service I've had by far and can easily recommend.

Excellent Usenet service
Excellent Usenet service. Switched over last year because it came with a newsreader and search. Works well and in terms of the Usenet access, the retention and speed is excellent. Support was also great today with helping me make an update to my account. 5 star service.

Deceptive pricing, stay away!
My account with Newshosting expired because they decided to triple the price they were charging me. When I logged in, I had the option to "renew my account" but the only price it allowed me was double what I paid originally. Goodbye. Your service is no better than anyone else's service, I can go elsewhere. Please do not contact me anymore.

Very impressed with Newshosting
I have been very impressed with Newshosting. The speed has been great. I've been using Newshosting since Feb. I’ve been able to find some rare news artciles through the use of their internal app, also with the help of Tweak api and Newshosting Usenet connections. Having access to two backbones has helped immensely. I'm very impressed with the linux client they provide since I do not use windows. That alone for me is a massive win. The included VPN has wireguard support with 10 concurrent connections, allowing you generate configs for your various needs. Very happy with the VPN performance and availability of global locations. I won’t renew my Proton VPN sub in the future since I'm happy with this inclusion as part of Newshosting package. I had some tech questions for both Privado and Newshosting support. In both instances, the support was exceptional, polite and friendly, professional and highly technically competent. The response time was fast and efficient. Access to two news backbones, 10 wireguard VPN connections, Easynews to use anywhere, 100 connections to their server and Tweak api access as part of the package is excellent. Fantastic company and products, exceptional pricing and easy payment systems.

Slow and bad retention
Slow. Their completion rate was not as advertised. Tired of rates always going up.

I am very irritated by the constant bait and switch almost fraudulently created price hikes on the plans. They sell us on low price intro rates then those rates increase. Then they increase them again, and again, for how many times? This is a scam.

Years of great service and extra value
I’ve used Newshosting since 2018 and have never had a reason to switch. The speeds are excellent. A huge bonus is the included VPN, which has saved me a significant amount of money on extra subscriptions over the last few years.

False advertising
They advertised a promotional special for $5.99/month for 12 months complete with an additonal 3 free months. According to their website total tax in price for B.C. residents was approx, $95.00. My card was charged $260.00 When I tried to email them their site isn't working Beware

I had an account here for at least five years and it seems they are now just using their site as an opportunity to gather information on customers through invasive cookies and other methods. They raised my rate without asking and offer people discounts if they are new but those of us who have paid them for years get nothing. Just a bad example of being a reputable company.

Used them for couple of years
I used the service for couple of years. Their service got worse and worse. I have a long time account that is been blocked although paid. Their website is a nonsense that requires ip verification. I am sick of bullshit, this company is not making anything easy.
