Dediserve - Docklands has re-opened, 60% recurring discount inside **Hot Offer**
This discussion has been closed.

Ha! Sure, didn't think about that. But I am also not too network gear savvy. I had something in mind like throttled hypervisors. And it's Monday. I never got along well with Mondays... ;-)
What's the timespan for replacement? If I order a new VPS (with discount) but in a month or two no longer need multiple VPSs, would I be able to keep the new discounted VPS or would you still revoke?
We are flexible about it but the offers are designed to help customers grow and expand but just reduce costs
I suppose they would prefer you keeping all your VMs but will not revoke the discount after a grace period. They surely only try to prevent people from cancelling all their VMs at the same time just to get the better pricing.
//Ah, @dediserve was faster...
do you allow seedbox? i'm thinking on buying SG-based cloud
As above. Anything legal that remains within terms and limits.
As there is two core means maximum 2 vps and may I know which virtualization?
@masterqqq you can adjust the sliders on the order for and order as many cores, ram, ssd, IPs, or other elements as you need, all get the discount.
We run KVM now mainly in new locations, some older locations have not yet been upgraded to KVM (Vienna, Frankfurt, LA)

Are the network speeds at par ? Or am I expecting too much (though they are much better than what I am getting with Scaleway C1) ?
Par compared to what? The speeds as far as I am concerned are good.

Would upgrades (new orders, not existing products) be discounted as well?
Possibly. Drop us a pm or ticket
Been with dediserve for ~1 year now, service is extremely good and I love not having to worry about CPU usage (I don't abuse my cores but it's nice knowing I don't need to worry about sustained usage).
Is all locations able to make vps or only some locations?
well, it did apply the discount for ireland, so i assume so ..
Which is extremely high due to your bad DC/Upstream choices.
@dediserve In your TOS it states 2Mbps per 1GB of ram for "premium locations", how heavily is that enforced? I was planning on ordering a Sydney server and running a private VPN, however if I was to download something it would go over the 4Mbps limit easily..
No you would not. 4Mbit 95% are still 1300GB/month.
This coupon cannot be applied to your orderPlease check @dediserve
Received the same error too, already put in a ticket to ask but I bet they must be off to bed now
Right, that makes more sense. I was thinking something else entirely.
i can't apply this coupon, it shows this error: This coupon cannot be applied to your order
can you please check?
All networks / providers will levy a charge for networking configuration and maintenance of same, even if we ran the routing ourselves we would charge a similar price, The trouble is not the charge, but rather those expecting everything for nothing.
It's handled by exception only and is there solely to prevent abuse. We've never once in 6 years actually charged anyone for overages. Also, as mentioned, it would be 4Mbps at 95th, so 5% of the month you can burst to line speed.
@LuanT @spammy @rockcraft7
That's fixed now, thanks for your patience.
No, your choice is bad - If you rent a full rack and your ISP charges you recurring for IP announce (!!!!!!) or BGP your ISP is shitty, end of story.
Just as reference - You wanting to charge me 50EUR recurring for IP announce in Vienna is INSANE if you rent more than a single U. Obviously this is what the DC charges you so not your fault; but still a very bad choice on your side - Especially as you yourself need to announce space as well, thus reducing your profits.
I could, from pure memory, list you easily 50 DCs here that announce space for free (non recurring) on a quarter rack+, in nearly any important country worldwide. Easily 25+ that do not even charge setup. On full rack that lists easily double.
