Worth every penny!

I've been using Newshosting for over a decade. It's been rock solid since day 1. The few times that I've had to contact customer service, (due to my errors), that has been stellar as well.

Best Usenet Provider ever

I hope that the service will be the same in the future as now. The time between updates of the newshosting app should be a little bit shorter.

Newshosting is first class

Newshosting is first class. I started with Usenet Monster (I knew the founder for a long time) and they got aquired by Newshosting. They honored my low rate (I had this account for almost 20 years) and the one time I had an issue it was resolved very fast through their competent support.

Nothing but good experiences!

Great retention, almost never has gone down. Excellent client software! Chat support is helpful when I've needed it. And pricing is definitely good value for the money. Been with them for many years now.
