But they have some pretty conflicting information on their site, the first post mentioned they have been around for 13 years, second one mentioned they are in service for 14 years.

Does anyone know about them or used their services?

I use to have a dedi with them for web hosting and it wasn't bad. The network would drop for about 10 min a day though. And when I tracerouted my IP it looked like the whole DC was offline.

the price is charming however i doubt if they really run for 14 years.

Got the Xen-512MB and it's quite nice. I'd recommend it, especially for the price.

I got their Xen 512MB a few days ago, but I don't know what to use with it. So I just run a Minecraft server on it :D

But is a 6 month contract, and is in euros, too expensive :P

ErawanArifNugroho

Just about 9 EUR. Do you want it? :P

1.6 Euro for a 512MB Xen VPS is expensive?

zhuanyi

What I don't understand is why they have been in the business for so long, and yet hardly anyone seems to talk about them...

And they are the cheapest dedi providers these days I guess, particularly if you live outside of EU? It is even cheaper than the datashack deal I found.

emilv

They are very good, Im happy with my VPS.

ErawanArifNugroho

Anyone have their vps with ProviderService, what do you use that vps for?

Tried signing up for the promo but they requested ID so I just cancelled.. I'm not going to send them a copy of my passport for a $2 VPS!!

I have to pay 6 months n_n that's why

zhuanyi

Payment €9.58 EUR

So 10 Euro's for 6 months

Fraud check? I signed one up, they never asked me for it

yomero

Too much compromise 6 months.

earl

@zhuanyi said: Fraud check? I signed one up, they never asked me for it

Yeah not sure why? same week I had stylex ask me for ID as well supposedly it's a random check.. not that I set off maxmind or anything like that.. it's really odd, been buying Dedi/VPS's for over four years never once been asked ID then all a sudden twice in less than a week!! would have been fine if they did SMS verification but sending things like passport/driver license to someone I don't even know it's not going to happen!!

Recurring "Introductory Offer" princing isn't guaranted.

The prices will remain the same for at least 12 months. There might be a increase in the second year, but we don't have concrete plans to raise prices.

Got a VPS on providerservice's network. It works pretty well (networking)

Ha, didn't read that line, but I guess for most of us, one year is good enough to test things out and move on if needed, LOL
