fidfid88 Posted October 27, 2011 Share Posted October 27, 2011 waste of money.. after purchasing the vip bandwith, enable the file for acceleration, i only see it show "vip acceleration is enabled. preparing your channel download" but doesn't seen to increase the speed. from the speed i look at it, 0% to 100% completed, it is still the same... so regret of paying the $$$. :angry: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The UnUsual Suspect Posted October 27, 2011 Share Posted October 27, 2011 We have had some problems with certain tasks enabling vip, but in general, when it works, it works very well. I'd encourage you to keep trying, but if you're unhappy, you can send a message to zerojinn, she can make adjustments to accounts if needed. Also keep in mind that vip is still in beta testing, so some errors are to be expected. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kluelos Posted October 29, 2011 Share Posted October 29, 2011 Our joint experience has been that if it doesn't start within 10 minutes or so, it never starts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The UnUsual Suspect Posted October 29, 2011 Share Posted October 29, 2011 We all wish all the bugs were fixed instantly, but some seem to be persistent, so all we can do is give the development team the time and patience they need to work out all the issues. If a user is upset and wants a refund, I'm sure they will be accommodated, or if you need your account extended until your able to use it all, I'm sure we can work something out. In the meantime, please feel free to continue to try it. When it works, it works very well and I've downloaded hundreds of gigabytes when testing it. It usually maxes out my connection speed of 3000kB/s, but it could easily do ten times as much. For account related issues, the person you need to talk to is Zerojinn. Hopefully she can find some way of satisfying anyone who is unhappy with the service. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mysophalees Posted October 31, 2011 Share Posted October 31, 2011 I certainly want to give the team the opportunity to get the VIP acceleration working properly. and i am not interested in a monetary refund. Perhaps my account can be extended until it does start to work, if not, no biggie. Regards. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The UnUsual Suspect Posted November 1, 2011 Share Posted November 1, 2011 I'm certain Zerojinn can do that for you, send her a PM with your Comet ID name and transaction details. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mysophalees Posted November 5, 2011 Share Posted November 5, 2011 Our joint experience has been that if it doesn't start within 10 minutes or so, it never starts. So do you mean it will never start, or there are still some bugs to be sorted ???? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The UnUsual Suspect Posted November 5, 2011 Share Posted November 5, 2011 He means that if a task doesn't start within minutes, it probably won't start if you wait for hours. This is speculation from observation though, the truth is we aren't sure why some tasks don't seem to start, but I'm sure the development team is working on it.

apaydinc Posted November 8, 2011 Share Posted November 8, 2011 I purchased VIP today and it says enabled for the download I am doing now but the speed is on 68 kB/s whereas I have another download going on without VIP at 400 kB/s. Not sure where the benefit is with the VIP Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The UnUsual Suspect Posted November 9, 2011 Share Posted November 9, 2011 vip will benefit you if your unable to get good peer connections because of your ability to upload. If there are no good peers in the torrent, nothing can help you, and comparing a healthy torrent without vip to an unhealthy one with vip isn't a valid comparison.

gazd2002 Posted November 13, 2011 Share Posted November 13, 2011 I purchased VIP today and find it hard to maintain connection. It comes and goes and like the other member says keeps with the preparing your bandwidth. Just for interests sake I logged out for the same torrents and my download speeds maintained their speed and got quicker, logged in and hey presto lost it again. I'm really not sure what I have achieved for my money Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fredg777 Posted January 25, 2012 Share Posted January 25, 2012 hasn`t worked yet,almost used up bandwidth for it,not looking for refund,bit comet is great even without vip working. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
greywizard Posted January 27, 2012 Share Posted January 27, 2012 If your BitComet spends more than 24 hours without downloading anything you can reclaim the download quota by simply clicking on the "Disable VIP acceleration" button AFAIK. So, there's no point in wasting it, just because the task didn't work. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kluelos Posted February 22, 2012 Share Posted February 22, 2012 VIP accelleration is a new thing in the world, and when it works, it's completely anonymous. I understand how frustrating this can be while they work the problems out, and it will certainly take a while, but what a terriffic thing it will be when it gets going. I wish it was handled better, but I can certainly understand a little patience with this difficult birth. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
