BitCable Heads Up

Hey guys,

Just got a coupon through from BitCable for 50% off recurring.
They had pretty good reviews from a while back, so I thought people might be interested.

Coupon: 'marchmadness'

Thanked by 2Zero Bitcable

    @Dionysus : close and open your eyes as many times you want, and the numbers look the same

  • yomeroyomero Member

    OMG! A coupon! Ages ago they didn't released one.

    @Dionysus said: The amount of bandwith they allow you to use is a bit low.

    A bit more wouldn't make much difference.... ;)

    @Dionysus said: I mean most of us here are cheap but isn't it a bit odd that they decided to do a 50% discount?

    I got the mine with 50% months ago (maybe 6 months??). They normally DOESN'T make coupons/promos.

    $ uptime
 21:54:18 up 79 days,  7:03,  1 user,  load average: 0.27, 0.19, 0.11

    If this doesn't speak well of them then I don't know

    Could be more, but I restarted some times. Also, the only hiccup has been of one hour, and was just a network issue. 100% uptime.

    database error :/

  • sonicsonic Veteran

    Critical Error
    Could not connect to the database

  • KairusKairus Member

    Maybe they're getting the "BuyVM Effect".

  • flyfly Member

    my bitcable order got refunded..... wtf

  • NanoG6NanoG6 Member

    @kbar said: my bitcable order got refunded..... wtf

    Why? What they said?

  • flyfly Member

    I emailed them with no response

  • SashiSashi Member

    I ordered one myself.. still no activation :(

    I think it's time for me to clear some things up :)

    Why to promo?

    • To spice things up a bit. Nothing wrong with that. People love surprises!

    Database error?

    • MySQL shut down for some reason. Not a big deal.

    @kbar was refunded?

    • If you were refunded, that means you were considered to be "high risk." I'd rather let 5 legit people go before I accept a fraud order. Mistakes happen, though.

    @Dionysus 24/7 support?

    • This is sales. His VM wasn't even activated yet. Honestly, I don't think you can judge a provider's support like that. Last week our switch failed (very rare) and took our entire cabinet offline. I personally got up at around 1:00 AM and drove over to the data center to get the issue resolved. I sent an email to everyone as soon as I got back.
      If that's not enough, then people have other options.

    My Markdown is terrible :P

  • sleddogsleddog Member

    Bitcable is an A++ provider. Period.

  • SashiSashi Member

    Hopefully mine gets activated soon :)

  • flyfly Member

    mine got activated after a while... had to submit a new order

  • SashiSashi Member

    Still nothing :(

  • InfinityInfinity Member, Host Rep

    Mine took a day to activate, not too bad.

  • BitcableBitcable Member

    @Sashi Check your spam folder.

    @Dionysus Manual activation and fraud detection.

    @Dionysus said: Were you guys able to sell quite a lot of VPS' due to the march madness discount?

    I'm not complaining :)
