On June 2nd, our entire Netherlands infrastructure went offline.Turns out MIRHosting — the company through which we were colocated at nLighten datacenter — had power cut to all equipment from all their clients, with zero explanation or official statement.

Our CEO Alexandru Scutaru and CTO Eugeniu Croitorov flew out to the Netherlands immediately to handle it on-site. Meanwhile, our Moldova team kept things running — answering tickets, live chat, processing refunds, and setting up temporary replacement servers.

We always knew your data was safe and intact — it was just locked inside the datacenter, which is why we couldn't provide backups during the outage.

▎All affected clients get a free extension period on their servers, just open a ticket and we will do it for you.

▎Those clients who had a replacement server in Moldova will have a 7 day period when both servers will be active so they can sync the data at their own pace.

1. ID / Identity document
Passport or national ID copy

-Email or chat correspondence
-Account/registration details (must match the ID)

3. Proof of financial loss
-Bank statements confirming transactions
-Calculation of damages (what was lost and why)
-Receipts or payment orders

Open a ticket and our team will guide you from there. We've learned hard lessons from this and we're taking full responsibility.
