Thanks.
I didn't know.
I feel cheated.
Nevertheless, these are not VirMach:
I currently have a server in Amsterdam for serving all of Europe.
It works well with 60% of viewers receiving 720p video resolution, but I'm afraid the provider would call me stupid and block my account at some point.
This offer has similar prices and I can get 4x the RAM.
However, the 12.5% CPU is a turn-off.
Also, connectivity seems to be worse.
sorry, I just realized it should be 40.
But at least the first and last of these were some pretty crazy deals with very limited stock (e.g. 5 available), requiring you to video yourself doing obscene acts etc.
Strictly your point might be correct, but I think if you compare to other offers with similar availability it isn't bad.
They said they're not going to offer that deal again:
They don't allow transfers any more either, so even a customer that already has one can't transfer it to you
hosthatch is regurgitated dog shit with a perception it's good
Their AMS location if they make it available again in a next sale?
That's a shame. I can understand why they do that (better to have customers idling their VPS than actually using it, and the ressources will become available next years to be sold again, potentially to a LET addict that will let this VPS idle again) but it's a better long term strategy IMO to have customers using and enjoying your services. Transfers are great for that: the service can move until it finds the user for which this VM with its limits will be the perfect server.
Yeah my guess is that disallowing transfers is a tactic to phase out less profitable plans over time (to stop them from just being passed from person to person indefinitely)... Either that or it takes too much support time that could be used for other things.
I'm not too surprised as many providers don't allow transfers - I think providers like VirMach that are very flexible with transfers are outliers.
Not a fan of hosthatch? I think they're pretty good for the price.
Anyone with Benchmark from nvme vps?
Provisioned 30min after order, NY 8GB
Ubuntu, fresh install:
Madrid and Milan are still 1GBit/s and not 10GBit/s?
@Merlincool here I am with $2.5 instance from Warsaw
My push-ups are not obscene acts!
If I already have a server in my
.ssh/config
, I compare to them, not "other offers" that I don't have.Top result of "hosthatch review" agrees with you:

Can agree. Their pricing is the only reason to go with them.
I believe they've actually said this is the case.
I would like Amesterdam for the 1st plan stack *2 ?
Top three reviews: person pissed off for getting kicked off, person pissed off for getting kicked off, person pissed off about not getting TUN/TAP to work and trying to get refund. Not sure this is truly representative ...
Hosthatch is like SirFoxy's bad ex- . They can't communicate and he just can't let it go.
It was, fixed it, sorry.
Please open a ticket and we'll get it done for you.
Honestly, it has nothing to do with that. Transfers are temporarily unavailable. There was a 'secondary market' for our promotional servers. The problem is that we were getting tens of requests per day after Black Friday, and it puts huge stress on the support queue - add to that the fact that the new user might try to hold us responsible if the seller misrepresented something to them.
We will bring transfers back in a while. As you said, it is in our long term interest that people use their services and renew them and allowing transfers is a good way of ensuring that.
I am on verge of buying another storage server. But have few queries:
Is it a KVM VPS or OpenVZ based?
What happens after the traffic bandwidth is exhausted? Are users allowed limited connectivity till next renewal?
I'm sorry to hear that. I would love to hear how we can do better. What bad experience did you have and how could we have done better?
I hope you realize why certain people choose these review websites over using LET/WHT or other forums where they might have to justify their reviews.
You don't have to trust me on that - I think it is generally agreed upon that Vultr is an outstanding provider and you can look at https://hostadvice.com/hosting-company/vultr-reviews/ to get an idea of how these review sites end up misrepresenting facts.
We do not sell OpenVZ anymore to new customers.
Your server will be suspended until the 1st of the next month. It can be resumed by buying additional traffic from our control panel.
@hosthatch how is storage plan stack X2, is it everything double?
Yes
what is the special price for plan X2 ?
Yeah... Because "15 user reviews" xD
Well, I based this not only on the reviews of that website but here on LET quite a few people have been complaining about the responsiveness of your support, too. Sometimes your support is answering accurately to the issue raised but sometimes it feels like copy and paste of what's most likely to fit the request and then sometimes there's no reply for a couple weeks. It lacks a bit consistency and thus I wouldn't host productive stuff on these servers. Other minor issues are i.e. the ISO uploader which is sometimes broken, a problem for (over?) a year.
If everything around is setup and working correctly, the performance of the server is really good, there's nothing to complain. These few issues I remember (like temporary IPv6 connectivity drops or compromised templates) is something I consider which can happen the same at any other provider too.
I do understand a number of users have shared their views on the problems we have.
My question was more specific to your experience
What problems have you personally faced with us and what we can do better? Would you mind PM'ing me your email so I can take a look at the tickets in question, and also make sure you don't see it again?
@hosthatch
Its mean for 2 year,
512 MB RAM > 1GB
250 GB usable storage > 500GB
3 TB bandwidth >6TB
No, you can order two plans and stack them to double the resources.
