it is a mess
there are numerous flash sales happened during the past week
no one, no one is as fubar as this
telling us that the WHOLE world is rushing to buy your service isnt really a convincing excuse for the mess
it sounds really arrogant, especially this
Come on @VirMach . Leave this shitty BF-CM . Prepare well and bring your deals with Santa Clause on 25th!
people would expect any bottom provider at least can make their client area accessible
most bottom providers are having issue to have their vps stay up and stable, but really good at maintaining their website, which is the main money collecting avenue for any vendor
i can recall like 9 providers that went down during an offer posting, namely spartanhost. but the service itself is fine. you have to be less critical, the client area is entirely separate from your vps anyways.

have they went down for 2 hours?
on and off, to be less critical, but off way more than on
¯_(ツ)_/¯ don't buy it if you think they're not reliable dunno what to tell you
I would love to buy but can't because iv been waiting for virmach to respond to my email over 2FA device lost and account recovery for over a month now.
Looks good, so far we spotted roughly 2500+ members in Telegram channels.
I would call that a big botnet.
Jesus!
unfortunately learning from many others in the forum, they are Used to be realiable?
go look up, i am not the only one who have the doubt.
the thing is, this is my first service with them, and all good things i heard from the people on LET aside, all i see right now is their incompetency has known no bound, arrogantly.
All i said is based on what actually happened, and what actually said the virmach. sorry if i am critical toward your favorite provider. But please read, almost all are having the same doubts. i am admiring the faith you have in virmach.
i don't even use virmach i'm just being neutral
anyhoo @VirMach some deals in the almighty buffalo would be cool for some decent US + across the pond latency

Sorry, he's not around for another 25 days.

come to teach a thing or two about not having flash sale and yet the whole world still keep asking for your slab stock?
Santa...?
Not here, keep that to my threads please. I'm very much against shilling for myself in others sales threads.
I'm just poking fun at the jesus comment, nothing more.
Francisco
well, iirc he did come two months ago, and i dont think we are expecting him this month, no?
Seems i'm a bit late, but heck?

and its been 3 hours, my service still not getting provision
dont bother

A whole 3 hours? Whatever will you do? There's a warning right at the top of the sale that says sometimes provisioning will take longer, and the billing server is currently on fire. Check back tonight, or in the morning, or go pay AWS prices if you expect AWS service.
Btw, I've also been trying to add funds for future deals, can't add funds either...
"https://billing.virmach.com/clientarea.php?action=addfunds"
Cloudflare shows: error 524, host error.
What happened this year?
I’ve been a customer and have picked up a few services over the last few years.
The $8.88 deal was really good and I really wanted to pick it up. But it’s either some server issue or the aggressive cloudflare which rained on my intentions.
We're working on it. The server's not overloaded but something in the configuration is causing unexpectedly high TTFB.
also, CF 524 is shown too often when i F5...
i must say, as a new client, i am a wee bit uncomfortable having not even guarantee to enter client area and monitor if my service is provision.
Please provide your order ID and I can cancel the order and refund you since you are uncomfortable and the provisioning is taking too long for you.
You're confusing arrogance with tongue-in-cheek sarcasm. In any case, I really do not want you to be forced into being part of this mess so my offer to refund you still stands should you wish to consider it.

Did any of these other providers post an offer @ under $10 a year for 2GB~ RAM, with 2 cores and 45GB RAID 10 SSD, in Los Angeles, on a page that everyone is constantly refreshing, with 10,000 unique visitors every couple hours? We've received 50,000 requests in the last 30 minutes and made last-minute upgrades and we're looking to improve the situation.
We have hundreds of these requests throughout the months and it's a lot of information that has to be verified to ensure account security. We can't spend a significant amount of time on these requests so they are attended to as we have spare time. Each request may take 15 to 30 minutes to process.
Other than that, it's 2FA, and customers are provided a backup code. If they lost it, they can consider themselves permanently locked out of their account. Of course, we can assist them as if they are an external party (so if a customer wants their card removed and provides proof of ownership we can remove that from any account which would effectively achieve being able to cancel a service, for example.)
Since we do not force 2FA onto people, we expect those who use it want maximum security and we cannot undermine it by doing quick resets without verifying every single piece of information, and we simply did not expect that high of a number of people to lose their 2FA after setting it up of their own free will, while also not taking it seriously enough to store their backup code in a secure location. We would not offer an option to enable 2FA if we knew these people would not write down their backup code or lose it.
It means in the background the JSON that has the details isn't loading properly. We're working on it.
If you would like quicker provisioning, please do not purchase a flash offer.
FashionablyLate - But worth the wait...
Coming SOON™
Virmach billing is unavailable, permanent errors: no database connection, cloudflare checking browser screen. There are no login, no payments, no account management! What's up?!
Cyber Monday has been broken!
In what universe do you live in, because it's not with the rest of us? You know the previous year is still documented on this very site, right?
Virmach billing server is on fire!!! I can't even login to my clientarea
Cyber Monday has been broken!
Which database connection error are you receiving? These should not be happening anymore. Cloudflare checking browser is mostly lifted as well, which pages do you see it on?
Any possibility of more Windows server this year?
I can't login - the page https://billing.virmach.com/clientarea.php isn't loading.
Those errors I explaned above have existed during last 2 days - today and yestarday.
DB: "Critical Error Could not connect to the database".
