Cheers,

Nice offer.
Hello. Where link to US users??
Ok. Only EU.
You could edit your post to mention 9.99 EUR setup fee?
US users can also sign up through this link.
What about some i3 or i5 flash sale? :P
Done
Yes right, you can't just through the US website.> @DemoroCZE said:
Be patient, not until november though
Ok thanks.
Just curious (anyone can reply): does IPv6 /128 work well in practice?
You actually got a /64 but no one at OVH tells you that.
Some people could even use a /56 no idea if OVH fixed it.
Ah, good to know. I'm surprised that they advertise /128, which is highly unusual.
I already got mine. Thanks for the promotion!
Thanks for the heads up! It took me several minutes to remember, that I can't use my OVH credentials at kimsufi. lol
You can't even use your KS credentials across country based sites either.
I'm tempted, but I think that I'll sleep on it.
you may get nightmares about missing the train. are you sure? hhhahah
Does KS still have the 14 day
orderpayment policy? If so @angstrom can just get it today and think on it for the next two weeks before payment.Well, I hope that I won't dream about Kimsufi!
By the way (for anyone), are KS disks reliable? I mean, has anyone lost data at KS because of a disk that goes bad?
even with old age they are fine. There was one or two cases of complaints in the past were changes but not so fast.
Since it's France, it should be the case, but one has to look far to find the relevant text:
https://www.kimsufi.com/fr/documents_legaux/conditions_generales_de_service_Kimsufi.pdf
It's under 12.1.2 on page 15.
But if one wants to cancel using this option, one has to send a paper letter to Kimsufi (by recommended delivery), which is too much of a pain, so I personally wouldn't bother with this possibility.
It also mentions that you can cancel from the management interface:
Le Client doit exercer son droit de rétractation avant l’expiration du délai précité soit depuis son Interface de gestion via le formulaire prévu à cet effet
The Customer must exercise his right of withdrawal before the expiry of the aforementioned period either from its Management Interface via the form provided for this purpose
I have never seen a cancellation button on the interface though. There is, however, a "no renewal" option on the renewal page.
I agree cancellation through a paper letter is too much of a hassle for a KS.
I have a KS-1 with a 50K+ hours disk still going strong. No important stuff on it though. I have never had to replace a KS disk yet. No idea how that works or how long it takes.
"recurring for lifetime" in the OVH world is the timeframe between one of Ole's brainfarts and the next capital funding round.
Funny that this thread is set to sink, by the way.
Ah, you're right, I missed that -- I was focused on the formulaire de rétractation that they give on that page.
In any case, I personally would just decide before I buy it.
By the way, if one compares Kimsufi with WorldStream, is there a clear preference?
I see that you're not so positive.
I think that I would grant them "the discounted price for life" -- this doesn't really worry me.
I was actually only commenting to see if this thread is set to sink and tried to be half funny while doing so... 😜
Good observation. Probably it's deemed to be "not of sufficient interest" by we-know-who ...
Exactly my thought... The LET as of today.
Indeed. Focusing on how it's "this discounted price for life" is this thread's biggest joke. I already got a price hike on two previous "flash sale" Kimsufi servers. And now they resort to dishonest advertising like that.
any buyer share with us benchmark?
