Yes, I just upgraded mine.
Thanks! Found out how to do that in the client area.
I wish there is addon for extra RAM instead of complete upgrade to higher plan.
@Francisco May I ask where can check the account status? I'm an active client since 2010, but seems no any hints on the https://my.frantech.ca/clientarea.php
thanks.
You have to be paying with Paypal or CC to get Premier status.
The main perk of Premier is that you can pay with any method you want w/o fraud checks.
Most Alipay users don't want to give their real details out of privacy fears. Putting these together would likely get us a lot of chargebacks.
If you PM me your email I can promote your account manually, but you must keep a service active to keep the status. There is no 'permanent premier'.
Francisco
thank you, seems I'm not
PMed, I have 4 active services for a very long time, thank you sir
I have purchased 2 VPS’s how long does it take to activate them on an existing account with PayPal please? I thought it may have been instant.
Also can you cleanup old services we previously purchased at all please?
If you have Premier Status, it is instant.
Else wait until the billing dept checks and provisions your order(check billing dept time in their tos)
and to a 5900X machine? @Francisco
i meet the requirements for "premier status is our way of rewarding loyalty."
bumped to a new node would double everything i guess!

Nice, good performance.
Will this 10 Gb/s port speed upgrade also be for Premier Account account holders on older equipment in Las Vegas from the AnyNode transfer ? Asking for a friend.
Not doing migrations. A chunk of the cpu performance difference is the kernels we run on the 3900x nodes. We still run 4.19 there which is missing a lot of perks.
I’m slowly updating nodes as things go along. I’m a few weeks I’ll likely announce rolling kernel upgrades for LUX and New York.
Francisco
what do you recommend then, cancel SLICE 1024 LU and order a new SLICE 1024?
You can try that but there's no guarantee you'll land on a 5900x, especially since you now just freed up a 1G slot on a 3900x.
Francisco
I see. or order a new SLICE 1024 LU (which will then run for Premier users on a 5900X, 10G machine) and then cancel the old SLICE 1024 LU. is that smarter? or no guarantee to land on a 5900X anyway?
Why not provisioned manually ??

Sure, that has a much higher likelihood of getting on a 5900x.
Remember, 10G only comes if you're qualified. If you aren't premier, then you're waiting the 90 days.
Francisco
sir:
i logges in at https://my.frantech.ca/clientarea.php and there i get this information:
am i qualified? @Francisco

Sure, that'll get 10gig.
Francisco
Wait wait waaaaaait, does the "premier user" is missed oportunity for purple D to advertise?! Ooooo! Premier is trending like no tomorrow.
Premier has been around for 3 - 4 years now, just the only perk it really offered was that it allowed auto provisioning and things like that. This is the first, of many I hope, perks that has people banging at the door.
The original idea behind the 10G was to limit it to just premier users, but the alipay users would've lost their minds over that. I feel a 90 day wait is a fair compromise.
Francisco
Premier works! Thx. @Francisco
I suggest you to bank on this idea. People love statuses, levels, achievements etc. Sounds silly and far off from hosting, but believe me, it works. Ex.: I wanna be platinum member of buyVM! Not like those bronze level newbies. I will give extra 1.99/year for that title.

I wouldn't ever charge, i'm not AMEX.
By all means, if people can come up with perks/ideas, I'll run them by Karen.

@Francisco
When ist Slice512 back in stock in Luxembourg?
512mb are not being restocked
@Francisco As a premier legacy user I would love to be able to never have stock restriction. Leave some room for the premier users so that we can scale.
Hourly billing to premier users would be good too.
Divide premier into diff tiers. For example I think I have been with your company for almost a decade, I should be able to have priority over other premiere users.

Hourly would be interesting but it'd require a lot of development on my side.
I think for the immediate we're going to make it so users can create multiple private networks, as well as make private networks that span globally.
