Bro this is genius. I lost 89$ to Vultr when they got bought. I am going to check my old payments right now. 180 days is 6 months right!

Chargeback success rate drops after 120 days. Issuer networks vary: Visa 540 days for certain disputes, Mastercard typically 120. Day 179 is near-hard deadline for most PayPal cases. Contabo's acquisition was public March 2024. 14Tbps DDoS mitigation irrelevant to refund path.

Bank need paper form, 30 day wait. Your paypal method not possible here. How you find exact acquisition date?
