    @hosthatch any promo on small 1-2TB HDD VPS in APAC triennial deals?

    We're full on storage in APAC, but I will see if I can do something for the flash deals. Will be small and limited though.

    @Lu5ck said:
    3 years APAC is really tempting, especially it is primarily GSL but singapore looking glass shown 230ms to OVH France on IPv4, well, actually all OVH in Europe. It appear to be routing on via Epsilon through NA.

    It also 25ms higher to AWS North America on IPv4, specifically Ashburn. Also seem to be routing on Epsilon.

    Any chance @hosthatch change the route to GSL?

    I believe GSL was having issues in Singapore, which is why we rerouted some traffic. It will go back to GSL eventually.

  • Congratulations @hosthatch — y’all run a great operation and I’m glad to see your success. Truly the best example of a grassroots LET host.

    Happy birthday, @hosthatch and may the coming decade also be successful for you!

    I'm a but unhappy with you, mainly for the following reasons:
    The bang per buck ratio still is good but less attractive than your earlier promos. That's particularly visible with the storage VPS which costs more than double of what I've got from @host_c (promo).

    You've got better than $0.82/TB/mo? (10T x2 bonus triennial package) I've only ever seen that beaten (sustainably) by 1fichier, and obviously a HH storage VPS is worth the small premium over a dodgy file host

    It's a nice upgrade for me from my previous $1.23/TB/mo with Hosthatch, which I haven't seen them beat in years. Hoping it's not a pricing error!

    If I'm not gravely mistaken the cheapest @hosthatch storage VPS is $115 per year and offers 5TB storage - just like my @host_c storage VPS for IIRC $ (or €?) 45 per year.

    Many people have $45/year for 5 tb package from host c.

    It is 0.75/month/tb. Most have 17tb/month BW IIRC.

    And all these for just 1 year commitment.

    So possibility is there.

    Plus decent support ...

    More importantly though I had to learn the hard way how "support" truly looks with your promo VPS. ….I could not create a ticket at all! I could click "open ticket" and fill in everything normally but when I clicked "submit" ... it simply vanished, it was not sent at all

    having an issue with the ticketing form sounds like it has absolutely nothing to do with their reduced response times for promo plans. It’s not like they would actively prevent people on promo plans submitting a ticket. I have many a time. It’s a notice that once the ticket is raised, responses may be lower priority.

    That you had an issue raising a ticket is unfortunate, but it’s not because of the promo plan response times.

    Did you try the support email addresses on their site?

    Your opinion. Maybe correct, maybe not, but that doesn't change what I factually experienced. And yes, it does look like the panel simply is "cut off" from support. The only halfway "positive" explanation I can imagine is that it's an unintentional error.

    And no, I did not try to email them. Why should I? After all there's a panel that seems to offer "open ticket".

    You shouldn’t have to email them typically, for sure. But you had an ongoing issue and it appeared that the ticket system wasn’t raising tickets for whatever reason and this wasn’t expected behaviour. At that point I think trying a second contact method would be a good idea where both the original issue and the ticketing problem could be raised. It’d probably be the quickest way to get back up and running. Falling back to emails not ideal, but it may have been a better outcome.

    Is it the bandwidth that is EU/US only or all upgrades?

    As mentioned earlier, we do not restrict anyone from opening a ticket. I am sorry that you ran into this issue, but this is the first I am hearing about it, and no other customer has ever complained about this.

    So, now that you heard about it, when will the problem be solved?

    It would take much less effort to write an email.

    Thanks, I much prefer using the panel.

    To avoid misinterpretations: this is not about bashing @hosthatch, my "happy birthday" was sincere and I like(d) my HH servers (as long as I had some support).

  • hosthatchhosthatch Patron Provider, Top Host, Veteran

    @jsg said: So, now that you heard about it, when will the problem be solved?

    As soon as it exists. So far I have no idea who you are in our system, and have no way to identify your account. Can't really solve an issue that that does not exist.

    @jsg said: Thanks, I much prefer using the panel.

    Great, probably would be a good idea to send us an email to let us know about the issue you are seeing, so we can look into it. Then you will be able to use your preferred method of contact in the panel, going forward.

    @jsg said: (as long as I had some support).

    I know it feels like you do not now, but you really do.

    Truly not sure why this is so complicated. :)

    I've been using HostHatch's VPS for the past four years, and the machine's stability and network connectivity have always left me very satisfied.

    Nope, sadly can't do. For one because I'm clueless with graphics, screen video recording, and the likes. Secondly because on a (static, non video) screenshot one wouldn't see the problem, because, as I laid out, opening and filling in the ticket form/page works just normally. The problem is that once I click on "submit" it seems to do some work on the server - but then returns to a completely different page and when I look at my tickets manually (as opposed to, as usual, ending up on a "your ticket #xyz has been received. click here ..." page) I only see a single one from early on but not the new one; it's as if it didn't exist.

    With statements like those, it doesn't even feel like you want it to be solved. Just want to nag for no reason. Sure it should work a certain way - just email or coordinate with the provider here to get it fixed.

    Annoying to say the least.

    Yeah he is not looking for a solution, just complaining.

    You can't expect customers to know about technicality always. It's upon the programmer/host to minimise the area or guide him/her.

    It's a client side error so knowing about his customer id will resolve nothing. One should just ask to hit f12 in chrome and copy whatever comes in the console for debugging purpose when submitting the form.

    This is how the issue should have had been addressed if resolving was aim.

    (emphasis mine)

    So, what you feel is more important than what I actually and in reality experienced?

    A working panel that allows me to submit a ticket.

    You, of course, are free to bow down to whatever a provider demands (e.g. "just use email") - and I'm free not to but to insist that a bog standard feature works properly. It btw. did during at least the first weeks (and possibly longer).

    And kindly refrain from telling me about your feelings. I don't care what you feel, I care about facts and reality. A strange old-school concept, I know ...
