    Rather weird RAM/Storage ratio for KVM offers in NL…

    • IT&Designs's avatar

      NL LG:
      Connecting to 46.249.49.58:80… failed: Connection refused.

      It is SAS based storage which is faster and more expensive than standard HDD based.

      • ITDesigns's avatar
        ITDesigns

        SAS itself does not offer improved perfomance if you use it in conjunction with cheap HDD. SSD+SATA offers far more superior perfomance and you can easily find SSD offers with better rationed RAM/Storage, most of which will have *less RAM* and *more (faster!) storage*, hence the question.
        Doesn’t matter, moving along…

        • Ishaq's avatar
          Ishaq

          Not sure what you mean?

          We do not use SAS with HDD, the storage is based on SAS alone.

          Companies with good reputations like this one don’t necessarily want to attract tight people like you.

    Following the link to Los Angeles KVM, 1 GB special, yearly payment, i get an offer of $50. Here $40 is shown. Which one is correct?

      • Peter's avatar
        Peter

        Thank you, I might have guessed that.
        Meanwhile I got my VPS and used your ISO support to install my favourite Linux distribution. Looks good.

      Hi,

      These are recurring for the lifetime of the service.

    Hi,
    I signed up and got control panel username bn996. No email with details I received, luckily I copied login and server details while signing up. Currently server is restricted with message “under maintenance”.

    • Jordan's avatar
      Jordan

      Yes, you’ll need us to run a few commands on the host node – please ticket in and we’ll sort it for you

    Just signed up for with the Los Angeles 3GB Special and everything’s been good so far. Been looking for a KVM for awhile and now I think I have a new home.

    Hello, if the bandwith reach to the maximum allocated in a month, will it be refresh the next month? Thanks

    • Jordan's avatar
      Jordan

      Yes. You will be suspended for the remainder of the month when you run over and will have to leave it suspended until it is reset or pay for additional.

  13. CR's avatar
    CR

    The 7GB sounds great, BUT is there an option to upgrade the disk space?

    Thank you!

      • CR's avatar
        CR

        Of course now it says the 7GB is “out of stock”

    I previously used another VPS, which all my emails from that VPS’s IP address are considered spam by Gmail. Will you guarantee my emails from BudgetNode will not be considered spam by Gmail? I just use regular email, not for spamming of course.

    Thank you

      We should be able to accommodate. Please open a sales ticket.

    Hi,

    This is DDOS protected right? So if someone attacked me directly in your IP provided. This mean I will be still protected. right?

  17. tommy's avatar
    tommy

    it says DDOS protection but there support told us that it has little to basic DDOS protection. Like what??

    Wow, The director of the company closed my account and refused to refund my credit after I asked for my money back. You realize I would have been happy if you extended my service by a year but now you have put me your blacklist for “fraud”. Great company until you try to cancel.

  19. Bobert's avatar

    What version of the Linux kernel to you use for OpenVZ?

  20. Anton's avatar

    Refund not worked! Very bad company!

    I have an account with these scammers, which month after month I make the payment. and this month for personal reasons I made the payment 1 day after my due date. and they terminated my service without even notifying me of the termination. because of him I lost data of great importance. and at this moment we are seeing the way to sue, since they are not able to give an answer I have open service tickets and the only thing they have had the courage to answer is the following.

    Hello,

    Thank you for contacting us.

    Your ticket has been assigned to the relevant team and they will be in touch soon.

    Kind Regards,

    For more than 10 days I have not received any response from anyone in your company. they know that they did wrong in finishing my service since it always proceeds to been suspended but never finished. and this mistake will cost them. Too bad they don’t have the courage to show their faces.

    • Shella's avatar

      Yes, they are very bad and do not reply to tickets, stay away from this bad web hosting company, and slow support.

      • ag's avatar

        Same here.
        No meaningful response to a ticket opened on 3.3.2020 – after their “upstream provider datacenter migration” apparently left IPV4 networking broken.

        • Shella's avatar
          Shella

          Yes, it’s true, actually until now they didn’t reply, and since they change the IPs of all VPS the service is getting bad!

          the thing that we paid for a whole year and we need to find a replacement soon.

    • Roger's avatar

      Same here.

      I’ve had an offline KVM for over a week. And with an unanswered open ticket.

      So far it’s the worst provider I’ve ever had.
