Reddit Community Reacts

CloudHashing.com customers took to Reddit to blow off some steam about the mining software service. It stands to argue, the contracts that are currently being offered by Cloudhashing are at a ridiculously high cost and confusing for those interested in ‘cloud’ mining. Some customers have expressed frustration with the company, saying that they found it to be ‘very annoying’, while others claim it’s a scam.

One of such Cloudhashing’s displeased customer, CaptainThunerpants, questioned the excessive fees being charged by the company. Such fees included a management fee and a contract fee.

After signing up for the 1-year contract service, the user realized that the year of use didn’t begin at sign up. Rather, the company’s terms defined when the year ended. Instead of each individual having a full year of the mining software, everyone’s contract ended at the same time, regardless of when they signed up. User was gypped out of an entire month of mining. The user wrote:

“On January 2nd I signed up for a “1 Year Contract”. After my account was created, I noticed that my 1 year contract was set to expire on December 1st; 11 months from when I bought it. I contacted support and inquired about it and they said my contract was “1 year from the time the mining term started, not from when I purchased my contract” and they stated “sorry if you were confused”. Well hell yes, I was “confused”! Because their website stated 1/year contract! It’s now February and the same contract is listed as “1/year” but anyone who buys it now will only get 10 months. That’s not right and tantamount to fraud in my book.”
