Then why the different ordering links? 5444 vs 5454?
Well, the time will tell.
At least we have multiple Online employees commented here and in IRC.
I can tell you, if they change their mind this time, they be in deeper shit as before.
...until the next Special Deals
Special dealz for us 'special' Peeples 😬
Well...
its all cereal to me.
Looks like they oversold.
"at the moment there's no stock for the Start-2-S-SATA so the worker is waiting for new available servers.
If you want you can chose another server offer and we can do an upgrade."
HDD gone, saved me 12euro
Thank God I'm late for the party. After HostHatch and LETBOX special deals my wallet needs to get ready for BF.
Allow me to quote an image from @root at HB in that context...
@Nekki
I resisted successfully.
That reminds me how much I spent.. damn!
€50 setup fee tho. Can’t do it. Hate Online.net
I feel the same way.
Quoting for posterity sake (Online CEO):
We all know how that turned out just a couple months later (price increases to existing customers with absolutely zero notice).
Fool me once, shame on you... Fool me twice, shame on me... Fool me thrice, welcome to LET.
Yeah. I guess everyone just stops reading after 2-3 EUR ones, but this one is just insane.
The DOUBLE price rise last year for some specials still leaves a bitter taste, resisting... so far.
Well done.
There are pretty awesome deals.
I don't really understand why resisting feels "good".
You will cry this evening, for not getting one
Depends. If you are resisting another butt fuck, then it feels good.
I have managed to successfully resist the many urges to buy since the cheapest were in stock. I've watched them sell out and managed to resist.
I have no experience with online but after reading this thread I'm happy I resisted.
Most of us will cry after couple of months for support, failures and then price hike. xD
Ugh I caved and bought one of the 2.99/month ones lol. At that price it was to cheap to resist.
Why didn't they limit nb of servers per customer?!
They sux
Got mine delivered within seconds, installing now (hopefully I got a decent ssd!)
That won't work, I saw someone in the Chinese forum bought 12 using 12 different accounts.
Got mine installed (took really long, no idea why) but they seem okay. 250GB SSD is a Micron with 2133 power on hours (about 3 months). All good and well.
Bandwith is a totally different story. Download speeds are okay, but upload speeds (which would be the max download speed of your client) seem limited to 4Mbps if traffic is routed through AMS-IX or transit (NL-IX or local peering give much higher results).
