1blu vServer 4R 1CPU/4G/60GSSD 12euro/y
Hi all,
1blu is a german provider that offers pretty cheap vps from time to time. This time I could not resist and wanted to check them out. Offer non recurring, just first 12 month for this low price.
Edit: Also included for the price is one .DE Domain for the year wit mail service.

General
They have a manual provisioning process and you need to call them to approve the order. They do not offer IPv6 as far as I know.
Benchmarks
Done with preinstalled centos7 image.

Have not done anything with the machine but wanted to share if someone is interested. Look at the benches yourself and see if its something of interest for you.
Please request more benchmarks if you want.

Comments
Offer looks good but website not in english
There's always Google translate. Some words or text may not make sense but you will get the gist of it.
@pr0lz thx for the post
Agreed but
Call for getting order approved that's shit
Their deal, their terms. We can always move on if we don’t like. Calling is better than sending scan of ID or making a 20 Euro deposit
I would be more worried about the optional domain and worse -renewal. This makes it a One euro a month toy For 12 months
Maybe they have some english speaking staff.
They just want to know you customer number (you get that when you signup), the service you bought and the last 4 digits of your bank account. 2 minute call.
It will be difficult if they don't have english speaking staff
Unmetered seems good will have to give it a try
Like OP said, it's a good deal for one year. With a .de domain and unlimited mailboxes as well (pretty bad spamfilter). I had to do a phone verification as well, they just wanted to confirm some details. Maybe just to prevent abuse on mass order this deal?
Other orders, years before went through without calling.
They still have no IPv6 for the "individual brand" and only offer it via their 1blu business brand. It's located in Frankfurt. OP mentioned as well, that the server is delivered with a pre-installed CentOS images. A small detail here, it is installed on Virtuozzo environment per default and you can switch manually to KVM-QEMU, upload your own iso, which I've done.
and after one year? 4,90€ per month?
Yup 4,90€, I'll just go for the year and will not renew it.
