Today your website become extreme slow, taking me alomost a minute to login. Other operations are also very slow, and DB errors hapended again, files can\’t be download due to timeout. What should we say to others about orbitfiles? A service that is certainly cheap and fast, but you will get errors every three or five days and unexpected down time every month? You should concentrate on improving your service quality first instead of attracting more innocent people to further downgrade your service! I can\’t convince my friends or even myself to pay for services of such level ! Hope you can be better.

Dear Frank. It is nice that you show interest in this project, but I cant understand why you spend your time to get many negative emotions till login, download etc and then write comments with antiads under each blog’s post.. May be it is a better for you to get and pay for really cool superb file hosting with incredible downloading speed, many advertisements on each pages, interesting popups etc… ? For me orbitfiles with it 320 kb/s download speed is much better than ####.

I have to agree with Frank. Orbitfiles didn’t work for me. I had to get a refund. Tons of db errors and it was always very very slow. I keep checking back because I want it to work — it has a lot of potential. But I don’t think promotion is a good idea until the problems are fixed. If not, there are going to be a lot of unhappy people.

Hi guys! I know it can be very frustrating not being able to log in or download things at a faster speed, etc. I can see that Orbitfiles are doing their very best to keep things working for us. Besides, we all know that nothing is for free in this world. But Orbitfiles proved otherwise. They even go to the extent of providing us with both free & cheap services to suit everyone’s needs & budget. Let’s give them some time. I’ve got confident that they will not disappoint us;)

Please add FTP feature
or tell us when is it going to be fully functional
September 27, 2006 at 10:37 am |
Hello guys. I am chief developer. As Sal sad, nothing is for free, we would glad to break this axiom but we cant :(. Today server got almost down under users “attack”. We have to add limitation for amounts of downloading for guests and free accounts. We are sorry, but hope it is better for you and should be ok for premium members (we know they want to remove free access at all 🙂 . So you still can download you own files without any limitation.
About ftp , we are working on it, it is not so easy to integrate. Thanks for patience.
September 27, 2006 at 11:56 am |
BTW speed is much better now. Khow do you think?
September 27, 2006 at 1:25 pm |
I am currently using your free service but would definitely consider upgrading to a paid plan if you can resolve the performance and stability issues. It is much of a pain to be not able to log in to your own account when urgently necessary or finding out that an upload process via Hercules hangs and finally fails after 2 hours of uploading etc.
Keep up the improvements! Thanks!
September 28, 2006 at 12:57 am |
im very dissapointed
atleast run a servey
the limitation is not ok at all, thats why i paid for the service, please take off the limitations, just delete free acounts thats it
ask us premium users first before doing anything you “think” would be good, run a servey
and take off the limit plz
September 28, 2006 at 8:10 am |
If you are premium user, you never see limitation! Check you account for sure which plan you use. And give any proof of your words (screenshot with limit warning).
September 28, 2006 at 2:36 pm |
Does the limit go with downlowder or with file owner? Can Premium user’s files be cownloaded by everyone without limit? Can Premium user download anyone’s files without limit?
September 28, 2006 at 8:59 pm |
i dont have limits but i dont want limits for my forums users that i provide the files too, plz re-consider that option, or plz make the limit waiting time a lil shorter or tell how much time to wait
September 30, 2006 at 1:06 am |
ok ok
its ok with me now
limit is ok as long as it stays lil short
September 30, 2006 at 5:25 pm |
Great….limitations on free accounts. Way to go Orbitfiles…you just lost yourself another customer. This service was outstanding back in June, what the hell happened? It’s turned into a lame, unreliable file hosting site like all the others. I can no longer reccommend this site.
September 30, 2006 at 5:29 pm |
P.S. Why weren’t customers notified of these limitations via email? That’s the least you could have done… Burying that information in a reply to this unrelated topic was real professional. 😐 *shaking head*
October 1, 2006 at 12:57 am |
*shaking head* this is a very big dissapointment
October 1, 2006 at 1:16 am |
Well Orbit Files definatly didn’t work for me.. I got my refund though.. too many errors and literally took up to one day for about 3 files (32mb each).. Awful!! and i see these limitations coming up now.. definatly stay away from orbitfiles!!
October 1, 2006 at 5:50 am |
I still cannot get into my files.
WHY would I want to pay for a service that does not work.
I am very disappointed 😦
October 1, 2006 at 4:02 pm |
How can I ask fot a refund?
October 2, 2006 at 8:40 am |
Hossein, you sad about kill all free users early and now you say “i dont want limits for my forums users that i provide the files too”. And where is logic in your words?
October 2, 2006 at 8:53 am |
Ok, I get it. Anybody who download files from your premium account should not see limitation warning, right?
October 2, 2006 at 4:27 pm |
Dron, I’m glad that Orbit Files came up with the limitations on free accounts. As one of your paid customer, I feel that it is rather unfair if both free & paid users get the same priviledges. I have used other storage sites before and trust me guys, they cost more than what Orbit Files has to offer. I remembered having to pay like US$50 per year for one of these sites. Anyway guys, what is US$10 or US$20 per year for a better priviledges? It’s dirt cheap.
October 2, 2006 at 4:36 pm |
One more thing, Dron, I think you may want to consider the comments given by users on free account on notifying them of the limitations. Instead of sending a mass email to the users, how about newletters. You can also include the text in your website & under your terms and condition when new users signed up for free accounts.
October 2, 2006 at 8:24 pm |
yep yep Dron that is what im saying, i dont use much bandwidth too tho
October 2, 2006 at 8:25 pm |
only some senoir members that have my premission get the files

That should be great 🙂
October 4, 2006 at 9:16 am |
Ok, we will take care about all this features. Thanks for patience!
October 4, 2006 at 4:07 pm |
here is what everyone is trying to say
Download from free accounts, = Download limit
Download from premuim accounts, = No Download limit
This Means = More Premium Features, More Premium Account = More money for you guys = Happy Premium Users
in that case, this site is awesome

I don´t understand i had direct links to my files now i´m a paying member and the links are not going direct and have to pass for the orbitfiles… whats going on? i don´t understand
October 5, 2006 at 8:05 pm |
it seems that this is just getting worst, plz remove that,
we want direct links not like that,
October 5, 2006 at 8:06 pm |
and plz dont make a stupid reason like the “attack users” becuase that just doesnt make sense
October 5, 2006 at 8:09 pm |
and what are you guys working on?
FTP and taking limit off?
well i dont think so
it is as bright as sun that you are thinking about ways to make this host even shittier
October 5, 2006 at 9:28 pm |
Thanks mister Hossein 🙂 Do you read label in a title? “File storage, backup and sharing”. No “hosting” word there. There are no any limitations for paid users, no any “indirect” links or warning messages.
October 5, 2006 at 9:37 pm |
wat?
impossible let me check
October 5, 2006 at 9:40 pm |
ok,
im paid member, when my forum’ members want to download files from my paid account, they see limit and they dont have direct link, plz fix that, my account is paid and i still get indirect link with limit
October 5, 2006 at 10:43 pm |
never mind all my posts (what was i thinking?)
anyways, im ok with this, and plz make ftp, im still wating for that
October 6, 2006 at 12:19 am |

October 6, 2006 at 8:44 pm |

October 15, 2006 at 11:55 am |
Can I streaming mp3 fies from orbitfiles as it use to be before. Thank you in advance.
October 16, 2006 at 3:08 am |
The only free file hosting that is VERY RELIABLE without ERROR that i know and im using right now is megaupload.com or rapidshare.de
October 18, 2006 at 12:36 pm |
What about the ftp upload feature? I think it would be very much appreciated.
October 19, 2006 at 1:14 am |
i know ftp is good but that will make orbitfiles very in secure nowdays orbitfiles is running smooth and well i hope it goes like this
November 4, 2006 at 12:51 pm |
