Got this one in Black Friday for the supposedly great network. After some back and forth with support, performance to some locations is still subpar for my use case, but I'm sure some other community member can make good use of it.
2 x vCPU, 1 GB RAM, 40 GB Disk, 6000 GB Bandwidth, DDOS protected, Free DA = €15 /year
I know you guys like benchmarks:

I want 15 EUR via PayPal, Revolut or SEPA transfer.
If the provider charges any additional administrative fee for the transfer (does anyone know?), I will let the buyer know and this needs to be covered by the buyer.
For the time I spent trying to troubleshoot the network issue, Inception Hosting issued an additional 2 months of service credit, so next renewal date should be: January 28th, 2023.
Comments
May I know what kind of network issue?
i thought everyone praising clouvider network
Throughput to/from some destinations is less than ideal, and I wanted great performance for streaming video. Anthony worked with me to troubleshoot the issue and it was partially resolved, but I just do not want to push the matter further and prefer to migrate and use a different provider this time around.
The network itself seems to be fine from what I heard, but my experience with this specific service has not been the best. Maybe I had too high expectations reading those praises from everyone here. Being honest, for the ridiculous yearly cost, the service is more than fine.
Let's not make this thread into a review of Inception Hosting, I've been a happy customer on and off for many years and have nothing bad to say about them, specially when considering the price. One of the best providers of the LE* market, actually.
Do they provide a routed ipv6 subnet?
Reserved by @ElliotJ
@alvin was second by a minute.
I will now open a ticket with the provider.
This transfer is available only for people with an existing Inception Hosting account which has had at least 1 active service at some stage.
@alvin meets the requirements, reserved for him.
As far as I know, no. They provide a subnet and you need to add the IPs manually using SolusVM.
I took one of the London 2 Core 2GB plans (25 euro/year) this past Black Friday. Find it great so far. Didn't even see the 1GB plan advertised, must have been hidden from the threads?
still available? you accept btc?
Payment has been received from @alvin, so except if some issue with the transfer arises, this is done.
Should any issue arise, @neverain would be the next.
Posts can't be edited after an hour, and London was not available at first, so it was never listed in the first post.
@Clouvider dedicated server has routed IPv6.
@InceptionHosting VPS has only on-link IPv6, except those still in IOFlood locations.
IOFlood added IPv6 recently, but Inception is too lazy to add them to existing nodes.
Nice.
I ordered original LowEndSpirit €3/year service, 9 years ago.
I would be eligible for the next Inception transfer.
Transfer completed to @alvin
A pleasure to deal with you.
