This offer -> http://lowendbox.com/blog/domvps-1gb-openvz-or-768mb-kvm-for-3-37month-or-raspberry-pi-for-7month-in-cheltenham-uk/

If you have vps with it's better to check recurring pricing, they've silently increased pricing by x5 of original price. No notifications was sent at all.

First Payment Amount: £2.81GBP
Recurring Amount: £13.50GBP

That offer doesn't list anything for £2.81GBP

From memory they do pro-rata billing.

Ask them when the price increase happened and do they plan on telling clients?

What location do you have services in? I'm not aware of anyone other than FDC and Incero increasing prices.

What sort of hardware are they using?

Jack it's here on the LEB page:
Intel Xeon X3450 @ 2.67GHz CPU, 32GB DDR3 ECC RAM, 4x 500GB hard drives configured in RAID10

From $5/mo to $25/mo for a 1GB OVZ or 768 KVM.. I doubt anyone would renew, especially if they were coming from LEB.

UK prices on bandwidth have actually come down, however IP pricing is now getting to the "silly" point for IPV4.

@jack depending on how many customers they have on each node it might not be "shittyy hardware".
