I also liked them, and they're doing good ๐ i opened a chat support and had long chat with two agents. I ask him to give me any valid reason atleast. They keep me saying ( is there anything else I can help with). ๐๐
We typically do not go much higher than 16TB of bandwidth in any location outside of the UK. There are various reasons for this which are internal, but if we do go above, it's generally billed at a higher price as in most instances, we are sucking up the actual cost of the bandwidth.
Singapore will shortly have new connectivity, allowing us to significantly increase new package limits we are hoping.
Yes, this is fair. Cheating is not the case here.
Unfortunately, this is how it works with many VPS and baremetal providers.
The choice to accept this or to compare new provider(s) / prices is yours. But be careful with terms like 'cheating'. This does not apply here.
I didn't not mentioned name of any provider in my post.
NO ONE CARES IF THEY:
CHARGE DOUBLE
TRIPPLE
150% FOR 100% MORE RESOURCES
10% FOR 200% MORE RESOURCES
WE CARE IF YOUR BASIC PLAN CHANGE, OUT OF BLUE, WITHOUT ANY NOTIFICATION WITHIN REASONABLE TIMEFRAME.
You bought a specific deal, you have a specific deal. Nothing changed. No scam, no cheating. You bought a specific deal at specific point of time - maybe things are more expensive now? Maybe they pay more theirs staff? Maybe they don't need to promote [and sell things cheaper] theirs servers anymore as they are almost full?
Because you bought this deal it does not mean it will scale with other deals. You want a custom deal, don't be shocked that there is price difference for that or they don't have resources or they need to deploy new server or they need to X,Y,Z. Again - you bought a specific deal in specific point of time, you still have it, you enjoy it.
You want other deal? Ask for it - maybe you can trade X for Y, maybe not. Be fucking polite, stop throwing tantrums, stop with the "I WILL POST ON LET!!11111" also be fucking happy that they straight out not decided to end the relationship with you and don't allow you to extend your server anymore - many providers would do that - no one likes to be harassed/extorted.
What is the difference? Speedypage just happens to be professional and commented on this thread. You still said "cheating provider". It just happens that Speedypage commented and it has been specified that it is them you're talking about
That's why I didn't mentioned their name on my post , i Just want to know that it's normal or host cheating me?
It's normal.
I also didn't want to harm their reputation at all, i asking here just for views of people on this incident!
Do you see a difference between:
"Provider don't want to offer me a better deal with 1-1 price increase, is this normal?"
vs
"If your VPS provider is cheating you, what will you do?"
All right. Just be careful about the choice of word next time, you can decently ask about this matter without making a thread titled "If your VPS provider is cheating on you what will you do?" Anyway, Speedypage already stated the answer you're looking for about the bandwidth upgrade
Unfortunately, I am not able to visualize, how you have clients.
Anyways, are you aware of loss leader model?
If you are aware, do you expect provider to keep providing you same benefit as of loss leader pricing mode multiple times?
If a shop gives you a promo offer to buy one pen at $1 (to get you to shop in their store first time), do you expect them to keep selling you all kinds of pen at $1?
I don't know what kind of common sense people follow nowdays.
๐I'm also wondering that common sense, if asking views of people is totally treated as there's nothing wrong. Anyways everyone has the right to comment and express their words.
Maybe, MaxKVM was right.
You are lucky that they agreed to upgrade your current plan.
Banning is not a solution at all. BTW thanks for your comment ๐
They're charging fee for it , not a free upgrade dude!
I like the reason, LMAO
Your question in the post was somewhat reasonable, as in asking around if the price was fair before taking a decision on buying something. But your title for the post is a clickbaity one, unreasonably attacking the provider. The provider is free to set any price for a new service you request. You can take it or leave it.
Thanks ๐ atleast you didn't counter me , explained in a nice way!
I first laughed at the reason, but reading the thread, damn this provider is fragile
very fortunately i got VPS at SIG with 20TB of bandwidth from you
Singapore? 20TB?
That's not cheating as you haven't been charged of that. It was just offer. More like take it or leave it situation.
On the other hand I understand that offer somewhat sucks as even for full price (without promotional 10% off discount) you get less resources for more than double price.
So did OP married the providers or he just one side crush
yes i bought these VPS before they upgraded their network at a very favorable price, and after upgrading the network they still keep the same price.
This is exactly what I wanted to ask people if it's not unfair? Shouldn't they have informed me during my first order that I would have to pay more than double the price for future upgrades for fewer resources? People are only defending the host and no one is listening to my point. Some people even called me crazy.
WOW! Great deal, do you even need this bandwidth?
I don't think you're qualified to 'worry about common sense' ๐
Maybe ๐๐๐
