oky, understood, its for the setup fee
doesn't sound like a black friday deal
Same deal as last time, nothing changes
this needs a face also
Pure Contabo move
if someone need a singapore storage vps, this is the right time
still a NO ! still too expensive.
@contabo_m is your Dusseldorf DC stable now or can we expect more Black Friday Outages until it is actually Black Friday?
Installation fee should be waived
Setup fee on a VPS
You're saying someone manually sets up my VPS and installs Debian from a CD?
Nah, it's most likely automated. They probably just charge it because it most likely brings them extra $$$ (and also to maybe cover the cost of KYC).
It's kind of like Hetzner's setup fees, their auction has none but they charge it on their newer servers in order to (probably) help their ROI.
Since Contabo is EU based, they also have to mandatorily follow the 14 day refund period, and they deduct setup fees from that so they likely make some extra $$$ from that too.
At most, semi-automated.
Requires a human, AFAIK.
This really sounds very good:
"setup fee on VPS"
pure BF
i also think
I want to try contabo vps, however your setup fee so high
I created my Contabo VM on 2019 BlackFriday when they removed their setup fees. I bought a VPS S SSD. As a new customer the setup fee was a very strong con for me before that.

Contabo used to do that weird 'semi-manual setup' thingy back then. And charging setup fees at that time made sense.
It finally seems like they are now automated, but still charging a setup fee seems like a nonsense to me
Stay tuned to our Social Media, there are more discounts coming up
Yo guys, ERU price is much cheaper than USD
Contabo, do you have any proper abuse handling?
Yes, we have the following Abuse Complaint form:
https://contabo.com/en/abuse/
But you do not answer on this form. Reported many times and no effect.
Why do you request a government id and proof of address from your customer, if you do not comply with German laws anyway?
Why do you collect such docs? Do you resell it or what?
