@Skander said: question for those who got the flash sale, were those provisioned automatically (instantly) or do they follow the same manual provisioning mentioned in the original post/deal?

Not sure if they require the same amount of days as the other deals but they're not provisioned instantly.

Sorry guys - this is delayed to 23:00 CET.

But these deals are totally worth the wait and suspense. Some of them only have 2-3 in stock, so once they are gone, they are gone. We're filling up some unbalanced/unused capacity with some of these - so they will never be in stock again.

And they will 100% be live at 23:00, but probably won't last very long.

They are direct urls - so you can pay the invoice directly after order with your payment method

Hello, can you take a look at Ticket #206971
I was so excited after waiting half an hour when the first flash sales finally came out at 17:30 CET
that I swiftly ordered it without even a second check
But from the beginning , I actually intend to buy storage VM instead of NVMe VM.
So I opened a ticket for refunding, but 4 hours past no one answer the ticket.
Thank you
