Web Hosting Talk : Web Hosting Main Forums : VPS Hosting : new VPS provided Blacklisted IP's

[iancc]

the last 2 VPS services that I have subscribed to have provided me with BLACKLISTED IP's and when I research the IP's it is because the IP range provided are associated with SPAM
i even had to outsource my email campaigns to a 3rd party so they would be delivered
any info appreciated on how this can be resolved - am I asking too much to have clean IP's

I'd recommend contacting your provider which will probably contact their data center(if you are not hosted directly from a provider who owns their dataceter/collocates there). It's their responsibility to keep their IP ranges clean and if they do get marked, it is their job to go about taking care of that (especially since apparently they gave you a dirty IP range to begin with...). If they are not doing anything about it, find a new provider. Having your IP range flagged as spam is bound to happen eventually, however how the provider reacts to it should be the determining factor.
Honestly at this point I'd just recommend signing up for a new provider :-/

It's absolutely not a big thing to ask for clean ips -- after all you are paying for it.

This shouldn't be an issue. Just ask your provider to provide a new IP. No host wants to be caught handing out dirty IP's so they should be quite quick to resolve it.

Exactly, Open a ticket with your provider.

I agree with what everyone else said, just ask for a new IP address, they should provide you one
