I also needed to provide my ID for signup. Scanned it and sent via mail. Alternatively they sometimes accept phone calls. This is a must and tbh a hassle^^ Cancellation is easy done in cp
No signature or anything needed!
@ZweiTiger paid my first payment with paypal^^
would really like to see how you call a provider names if your whmcs account got hacked and someone pushed that button for you, so you can be just lazy as hell...
from a provider POV they probably would not want to take much risk for low money, which IMHO is very understandable.
customers who do not want to do 5 minute of legitimation work are probably simply not worth it.
and as it is every customers own choice to deal with or not - just be free and go on using other provider ;-)
(after all I'd say exactly this point doesn't tell much about quality of service, one only have to be aware of it)
Good to hear. They said i have to pay by bank transfer so.. i skip.
I honestly feel providers that are strict on scanning signup profiles turn out to be more "stable" in the long run than those accepting Bitcoins attracting the hit-n-run customers.
Just my 2 cents... no offense though!
Uh? Hungary is SEPA so if you have to pay fees the problem is unafortunately in your end.
SEPA?

We don't pay for bank transfers as long as they are in EUR. In the case of Hungary, you still need to pay a currency exchange fee, but bank transfers in the SEPA zone are basically free.
Not in Hungary. With business account 20 eur the fee. With personal account its 4 eur.
I guess this varies depending on your bank... still, very abusive.

Well the performance is very good at netcup , almost reach the online.net dedicated server. Also the SSD speed at netcup is very good. Got 100k read ips and 43k write iops. (online.net got around 990 and 730)
Greetings from Hungary
Finally i sent the amount price by bank transfer. This was 4 eur transaction fee for me. But now i coild pay by paypal so.. great :P
Netcup is one of my top 3 providers
+ eastee sale atm
UPDATE
Server performance is great! CPU is fast , and always got 400-600 IO speed. Tested many times.
Network performance is great too , but please note! If you use more then 80mbit/s for more then 15 minutes then they limit your network to 50mbit/s until the end of the month.
They said the 15 minute is not real value , so not after 15 minutes.. more!
Uptime is great too.. I really recommend!
interesting enough, could you please post the output of
occasionally played around with a netcup Root-Server L lately... which is 4 Cores 12 GB KVM.

server feels very responsive and fast, network connection, ssd, everything...
support also has been fast, very friendly and accommodating. setup was almost instant without even paying anything, just got called on my mobile (within germany) for identification purposes.
sadly (again) a provider with no nested virtualization available, did a detailed request on that...
so after all very much bang for the buck if you don't want to do nested virt.
Very solid hardware. However, when I asked to upgrade my root server for more cores, they told me that upgrade always costs a 20€ one time fee.
So I thought I cancel the old one and get a new one - whoops - no can do; You have to cancel your subscription one month beforehand. So I'm stuck with the one that needs to get upgraded.
Not so seamless aey? I moved my services elsewhere.
But if you know what you need, it's a dirt cheap with quality hardware.
VLAN is a tricky part. It costs 15€/month/virtual server plus 35€/dedicated nic/virtual server - so you'll end up paying 100€ for just two VPS interacting within own VLAN. Does not offer any software VLANs.
I agree the cancellation time and upgrade could be improved but super quality for the price
Netcup is now Austrian owned.
Your bank account is not in Euro then. I do NOT pay single cent for Euro transfers inside the EU from Austrian, Croatian and German bank accounts. I do pay fees for my Croatian HRK accounts and British ones.
Yep. Adding more CPUs using KVM should take around less than a minute. That takes less time than explaining these weird fees to customers via email - and possibly losing them
