Any benchmarks?
Domain privacy on a less than 12 months provider?
I guess no one has completed the 70 hours path to free VPS...
The best thing about this thread is that it's already the first thing that comes up if you Google "vpsbycall"... so now any potential advertisers are going to see the "company" telling people not to actually listen to their ads.
Yup, I'm sure advertisers will just be lining up to be taken advantage of.
we need to stay to phone 2 hours per day to get a VPS??? LOL
This is the best terrible idea that I have seen!
Did you have trouble deciding on a name?
all registered on the same day:
hostingbycall.com
mumblebycall.com
teamspeakbycall.com
serverbycall.com

Why not give vps first, then we will call later
how about phone battery
Not sure if srs.
This offer looks almost like a trolling attempt... has anyone got their VPS yet?
this is retarded.
5 dollars > 60 hours....
just because its a pain in the ass.
EDIT: LOLOL its 70 hrs.
How do you get support? Do you have to call and listen to an hour of ads before they reply to your ticket?
4166 minutes. 2.89 days of ads non-stop.
No way. First, I really care about my brains, that amount of audio junk will harm them.
Second, since listening to ads inevitably prevents me from any creative activity, that time will be lost. With my average rate per hour it means > 1.5k $ lost to listening ads.
That's simply ridiculous. However, I don't doubt you'll find people willing to sacrifice both brains and time.
I'm wondering, why not write a script for asterisk linked to an outbound unlimited voip provider that calls every once in a while, listens to the ads for a reasonable amount of time, then hangs up. once an use their free vps to set up the script and do this, ;-P
Unusual offer,
70 hours - toooooooooooooooooooooooooo much.
LOL
Do you really think someone is going to call for 70 hours just to get a VPS?
Doesn't make any sense to me
Right so here we go again:
First of all. your have private whois.
Secondly you only registered here yesterday.
Thirdly you posted an offer in general.
Fourthly... omg what were you thinking.
This should be deleted, it is an offer and you have complied with none of the rules, thank you and good night.
Just want to say NO. wtf, cheaper purchase VPS directly than pay for Skype and listening to your ads make my day worst
I don't understand why a provider wouldn't want to display valid WHOIS information for their domain, doesn't matter if the provider is old or new.
I mean people have the right to know who they are dealing with.
No, this should be covered in tar and feathers and driven around the village to entertain people.
It is more a WTF, than anything else. Mods please don't delete this, it's hilarious. Close if you must, but even then I see no reason to.
It's unlikely that LEB/LET will ever require all providers to display valid WHOIS info since LowEndBox just featured an offer from a provider with private WHOIS info named CHICAGOVPS at the top of their home page for 4 straight days last week.
ChicagoVps should just change their whois information to public then. What's there to hide? They are a registered company after all, have an office address and so on...
I tried joining up for the sake of it. but when i tried calling no answer.
And to everyone who disapproves we have something similiar here in the UK called samba mobile. which you watch ads for mobile broadband credit. and it's quite popular.
It's really comparing apples and oranges isn't it mate? With Samba you only need to watch a few ads (3 minutes of your time) to get something that you can actually use. With this, you need to chuck in 3 days worth of time before you see any benefit.
Why all the jealousy?
No we haven't, we have launched yesterday.
Read again what I wrote. I said the ads are repeating and it's totally understandable if anyone won't listen carefully for 70 hours to the same ads over and over at this point in time.
For future services based on the same concept.

You're repeating what others have said already. My reply is that the manual labor required is hitting redial on your phone.
