I see the promo box. Next to each available server, I see the discounted price as well as original price in the line description of server specs, and there is link to shopping cart to purchase that server. When I click on shopping cart, I see a page "Your order summary".. this page doesnt show any discount
But then the prices in th website was changed to the prices with 30% off
E.g.
Price/month(1)
18.89 ex. VAT
(or £22.67 incl. VAT)
rather than
£26.99 ex. VAT
(or £32.39 incl. VAT)
Very confusing same as kimsulf and the ks deal was not on setup just server but not helpful and that makes the 2nd deal worse the flash sales
As big as OVH is you would think they would get a better ordering system
just go one from https://www.ovh.com/asia/
edit :
Blackfriday deal can only be purchased once.
Oh don’t get me started.
Is transfering a domain still 1.20 EUR? I am currently seeing the full price of .com domains even after logging in and adding one to the cart.
so for SYS .. if i purchase a 1 month lease. will the price be the same now or 30% more at renewal? thanks
What happened to that OVH US BF link? I can see BF is active on .ie now and they are indeed doing the 50% off vps-ssd again, sweet deal. Don't need it but can't resist. As mentioned in other thread, gap between old and new can be covered by renewing old for 1 month.
Good question, but i managed to order 2 gameservers via US website even with US BF link offline.

Note about their BF offers - The discount is only valid for one server per order (maybe account?)
Well, i ordered one at ".com" website and one at ".pt" website (same product) without problems at all.
sorry, was referring to the dedicated servers, I didn't look at the other ones.
I would pick up a SYS if I knew if it was recurring
same. im debating this... i want a 6 month lease but at renewal i dont want to pay 30% more and i can't verify i wont.
Appears none of the dedicated server discounts are recurring. I checked the renew page for one on a monthly cycle and it was the normal price. Just keep in mind if you plan to get one.
Thank you, guess I'll skip out on the SYS then
True, renew price seems to be the normal price.
Does their Whois Privacy hide the Name or just email?

If I did not get the information wrong, Kimsufi dedicated server discount is only for the first time payment, is it?
Correct. You get 30% off in the first month only. You need to pay the normal price starting from the second month.
Seem you can only purchase 1 VPS at 50% off cant get another one
o_O Looks like OVH hides only email, phone and home address.
OVH in their style...
The "need"? You can't edit two DNS entries once a year?
Sure. Why use a stable IP for services when you can have fun going through the hassle of editing stuff everywhere at various registrars once a year ?
I'm sure you're the kind of person to still use floppy disks. Because the convenience of cd-roms or external hdds is "unneeded", which is true.
..and hosting your own DNS is so blaze. How long is your beard?
Well, why do you have your DNS scattered all over the place at "various registrars"?
I just run my own nameserver and editing a DNS record equals to editing one text file and running a script to push the update.
The only halfway bothersome thing is if the IP change in question is for the nameserver itself. But nobody forces you to run a nameserver on such a "non-permanent IP" service. As well as nobody says this one should be your only VPS to be used for everything imaginable.
@rm_ oh god you edit text files? I just load up Node and...
