Wow!Great!
Good to see some Amsterdam offers again!
Looks like a good deal. I'm seriously thinking about buying one.
Are there bandwidth upgrades available?
here is what Bandwagon's TOS says:
We do not tolerate the following activities on our servers:
it says torrent not allowed as well as adult content.
what would you do if you see one of your client hosted adult content ?
will you terminate client's account with no refund ?
@dcc: any plans on bringing UK location back?
They had an UK location? Damn! Why did you stop?
It is not allowed so don't do it. End of the story.
@trexos same as the DE location i think, it wasnt reliable enought.
DDoS maybe?
btw, their KiwiVM is pretty cool
In the TOS, have a look right after the "what is not allowed" list, it explains in detail how we handle violations. In short, we suspend the VPS. We do not terminate without a refund, however one can get themselves into a situation where their VPS will become locked until end of the year (this happens when you get 4 strikes in one year).
I don't think we ever had one?
Do you have a bandwidth upgrade available? Or what will happen when I exceed my bandwidth?
SSD or HDD? Here you said its SSD; on the Order Page its HDD since you removed Netherlands.
@Infinity580 It's SSD. Pretty sure I saw @dcc mention somewhere that they're no longer putting up any HDD nodes, it's all SSD from now on.
When you run out of bandwidth the VPS gets suspended until next billing cycle. However you can upgrade to a plan with more BW (VPS will be unsuspended instantly).
Sorry we do not do separate bandwidth upgrades.
@Infinity580 I can confirm that we no longer deploy nodes with regular hard drives. New accounts are created on SSD only. Looks like we would have to fix our website.
hmm, probably I've mixed up something... sorry! but UK would be great though ;-)
Just bought the $10/y plan.
Any plans on offering IPv6 in Amsterdam?
We will roll out ipv6 at some point at all locations, but at this time I do not have an ETA.
Any chance you bring back german location?
Or any other location than AMS:p
@foetti, @trexos We're actually about to set up another AMS location (SmartDC). We could not find a decent provider in Germany which would offer us some rack space at a cost that would make sense for Bandwagon Host plans.
booooo to no data mining
@dcc another AMS DC sounds nice, but NL is still "boring" :P
btw you still don't plan to increase the disk size/make special plans with more disk space, do you? It's the only downside of your awesome deals.
@trexos
You still want us to stay in business, right?
Sorry, SSD is still not that cheap... Especially enterprise-grade. And it looks like our users tend to fill up the whole quota pretty fast...
