use rsync.net borg service. you can use borg check command to verify your backup made it. 

I've used rsync for multiple customers and I am very happy with the service

> Hello people

> I am trying to find a solution for inexpensive cloud backup, mainly using my
> favorite borgbackup technology.

> The idea is to keep my backup on a onedrive server which, since it doesn’t
> support borgbackup (yet), I am going to use bcloud (as a fuse provider) and
> “local” backup.

> The problem is that bcloud doesn’t seem really trustable (and rightly so). For
> this reason (and others) it recommends using caching. So the question is
> transferred “how to be absolutely sure that what borgbackup sent, is what was
> really sent to the server, and *how to properly check it*.

> I tried using something like "borg check --verify-data” but it practically had
> to bring locally the whole backup, which of course doesn’t scale well.

> Any ideas?
