Chargeback window is typically 180 days from transaction date. You're past that for January. Small claims is viable if you can serve them — check their registered agent on file. Some jurisdictions allow electronic service for out-of-state defendants.

If they used Stripe/PayPal, dispute through platform first. Escalates differently than card chargeback.

Same thing happened to me with Leaseweb! Prepaid two years! Gone! 💀

I did a whois on their domain! Expires in 40 days! No registrant info!

My theory: the whole thing was a resale cartel and the middleman dipped! No infrastructure! Just pass-through!

CloudCone AS info from 2024:

ASN: 64444
Upstream: HostHatch, KnownHost
Prefixes: 1x /24

Currently announcing nothing. BGP table empty since May 3.

Their IP space was /24 from RackNerd, now reclaimed. RackNerd support says "customer relationship terminated for non-payment."

So: CloudCone was reselling RackNerd. RackNerd pulled plug. CloudCone has no assets.
