OVH Goof Up

chatboxchatbox Member

I Ordered a Server in Singapore today with OVH and it was supposed to be 64GB 512x2 NVME . Instead I got same CPU I Ordered but with 128GB 2x1TB NVME :hushed: Now the concern is , would they take it back or let it continue. Not sure how OVH Works :#

    you'll get to keep it.

    this is known as ovh lottery

    Given their sales regularly have people gambling on getting more than what was actually advertised and then keep those boxes for years to come i'd say it's highly unlikely. Actually i would expect OVH to perfectly know that they have delivered more than you bargained for but just not giving even a single fuck.

    They might take it back but you can transfer to me, I will keep it safe

    That's nice lottery. Check if you got a network upgrade as well, while you're at it.

    I don’t even think most people working at OVH are very aware that they’re selling servers in the first place

    I’m not even convinced they’re aware that they’re working at all

    OVH has been harassing me day and night to hand back my KS-LE-B with full upgrades.
    I can't sleep anymore. Buyer beware.

    Nice lottery and good luck ;)

    How much does it cost per month to renew this server?

  • renewedrenewed Barred

    I do think they do it to promote their services
