"Get nothing but error messages. Service is useless"
Version: GigaSize
Pros
Good way to lose money.
Cons
Waste of time. Totally
Summary
I bought a one month access. I got nothing but error messages. I sent Gigasize an email requesting support. I heard nothing from them. I requested a refund via Paypal and got a reply from Gigasize rejecting my request after almost 2 weeks asking if I used same email address as my Paypal account. I replied no (nowhere did Gigasize state I had to). Then I heard nothing from them again until the month was almost up. As principle of matter, I escalated to Paypal dispute and Paypal resolved the issue ruling in my favor. Paypal is great. Gigasize is crap

"Not usable to distribute large files"
Version: GigaSize
Pros
I fail to see any.
Cons
Premium subscription: not usable to distribute large files to other users, as they will be pestered by incentives for them to join, then connection issues.
Summary
Do not try to use them to distribute one large file (450 MB)!!! Although me, the uploader, purchased the Premium service, this is no use for the people to whom I wished to distribute this file: they must also get the premium service, otherwise their download experience is horrible (advertising, waiting time, connection time). This is not clearly stated in their service description and I therefore consider this as a rip-off.

"Horrible Horrible Service"
Version: GigaSize
Pros
Um...none yet
Cons
I have tried to contact tech support with no answer over the last 5 months. We paid for a year's subscription (stupid!) and got charged, but our account is not working as it should.
Summary
This company seems to be a giant scam.

"Complete Lies"
Version: GigaSize
Pros
very bad experience no pros what so ever
Cons
Advertising (malicious links)
Slow Uploads
NO SUPPORT Tried at least 10 times to reach them no reply by them what-so -ever
one of the worst experiences I have had on the internet
STAY AWAY FROM THIS SITESummary
I have a premium account below is what they claim I would get (followed by my Response)....
The fastest download speeds anywhere online (NOT!!!!!! DL and UL where 100Kbs or less)
There is no limit on the number of file or amount of data you can download ( Big issue here, I spent 6 hrs trying to upload a 500MB file!!!!! I tried via their website and nothing.. said it was complete but it is not in my files then I used their tool bar and the same thing?
You can upload unlimited files, each of which can be up to 2 GB in size. (Same issue as above complete lies )
No Ads. (Big issue here, I post a link on a user forum so readers could download ( see link to post below) I tested the link before I posted by emailing it to myself and it worked fine?.I then posted it on the forum and tested it and it worked however the next day the readers could not use it??I just tried from another computer and it is a mess?.It took me to a page where I had to inter code and had tons of advertising with malicious links (in fact Firefox would not let me open them they were so bad )
here is the link they claim has no ads and is a direct download
http://www.gigasize.com/getcgi.php?t=29aff4a01c0fa40a25d9195edf8b80f
Various upgraded features. (Big issue here nothing works as stated)?
No response from their support email link..... Several emails have been sent and not one reply in 8 weeks
IMO this is a ripoff stay away I will be contacting PayPal and their CC Processing company.... -
"fastest most reliable file sharing site I have used yet"
Version: GigaSize
Pros
1- Fast uploads and downloads
2 - Great customer support
3 - Premium service is cheap, easy and really fast
4 - Upload you files on forum and actually earn money from all the downlaods you generateCons
Free users have advertisement, so getting a premium membership is definitively better. At least it's cheap!
Summary
I can share, upload and download any size file at lightning fast speed. I have used gigasize.com to send my portfolios to clients, files that are too big for conventional e-mails. I now have a full range of files that I store and host on gigasize, and am able to share them with any user, + I actually earned 100$ last month just because I use Gigasize!
I've tried other sites, but they are always so slow, and will never answer my questions. Gigiasize is reliable, friendly, and very competitive in rates and downlaod speed.
