Nice. OVH extended my server for 5 days for free on the 13th, and today they gave me another 2 days for free. Nice to see their support has improved.
So, anyone got their Poland servers yet? I ordered 14th day myself, and the estimated wait time is 30th October according to my email.
My current server will soon expire, so i'm fearing I'll have to renew that again for nothing to avoid downtime.
Should probably ask them in a ticket for an extension on time and give them your order number for PL server so they know you're waiting.
With similar offer in Germany DC they could easily beat hetzner offers. I think it is their goal. Hope Hetzner will drop their setup fees.
hetzner has an support which just need some minutes to answer or to replace an hdd...
ovh support is comparable with summerhosts.
I have never had to contact OVH or online.net support yet, knock on wood. SSD drives. 3rd year without any problem.
Just asked.. Reply: "Not a chance." They told me that theres no free lunches.. Fair enough I guess. The guy was angry as fuck that I even dared to ask lol
Just renewed the old server for a month.. RIP.
Just to add
Hetzner Prorates you now for the no. of days you want
@stefeman @Wicked
They were sending emails today with date of server start (at least when you've ordered in ovh.pl):
Bold things:
They've started to running machines today
My machine will start tomorrow
First month of using this server will be free of charge :-) That what we've paid will be used to pay for next month of rental.
Some people has received their servers today.
Lol that sucks. They gave me another 7 days extended today. So they have extended my server for over 2 weeks after those 7 days.
Anyone got their servers yet? Theyre supposed to be delivering them right now.
Yes, I've got mine since yesterday. No extra IP's, no Anti-DDoS right now, however network is good.
No Anti-DDoS? what? lol. Damn
What kind of speeds do you get? Which day did you order? 12th? 14th? I'm trying to figure out the place my order is in aproximetly.
Any disk bench? Are the disks brand new or recycled/used?
I didnt got mine yet.
Me too. I have ordered in 10.11
So the install order is completely random and not depending on who ordered first.. Awesome lol.. Typical OVH stuff
You got an IP for traceroute ?
No way he would do that. Theres no anti-ddos, people would DDoS it out of orbit just to see how the network holds.
No DDoS protection and all this wait? My god. They should've just had everything ready before they started pre-orders.
Guys.

There is no cap at speeds for d/u for now.
They have just updated their weather map with the full network setup there so you should be able to get a good idea of what is local and what would have to go back to FRA or AMS POP.
They have 3 DCs in France and are building 6!! more in EU? They are not even that desperate to fill them, judging by the "introductory price".
And then not only one in SG, but an extra DC that's exclusively for Sydneysiders, Brisbanians, Melburnians, Tasmanians, Adelaidians and kiwis..
There must be overwhelming demand...
Or they got $500M not too long ago in VC funding....
Francisco
Probably need that many DCs if they're going to grow their VAC DDOS mitigation capacity to 5Tbps !
OVH seems to reduce their introductory offer price from $124.60 to $99 in Singapore and Australia location.

Didn't track the US website, but on the IE one currently it's just the same 89 EUR as it was before: https://www.ovh.ie/discover/singapore.xml
