Chris from URPad, a division of FTNHosting, has sent in two exclusive offers for LowEndBox readers. URPad’s last offer was in September, the following offers are available in Los Angeles, Dallas and Buffalo (and for one of their offers; Iceland).
$12/yr 256MB
$12/year | Order Now | $7/m 2GB
$7/month | Order Now |
URPad has been featured EIGHT times before on LowEndBox, generally receiving positive feedback from their clients. Now they’re stepping up a notch and becoming a whole lot more competitive with their currently unbeatable yearly offer. URPad are one of the first, if not the first, to provide this amount of resources at the $12/yr pricepoint, in a variety of locations. Their second, monthly based, offer is also pretty competitive and, unlike the first, includes Iceland. However, if you select the Iceland location for the $7 month 2GB plan, you will only receive 250GB of Bandwidth as opposed to 2000GB for the US locations. They claim servers are set up instantly, do comment below if this is, or isn’t, the case.
The $7/m 2GB can be paid monthly, quarterly, annually, biannually and triennially with additional discounts if you pay for a longer time frame of course. URPad.net guarantees a 30 minute response time for technical support and guarantees a 99.9% uptime guarantee. PayPal, Moneybookers, All Major Credit Cards, and Liberty Reserve are all accepted payment methods. You can view their terms of service here.

Fighting with ChicagoVPS? :D
i hope the coupon code is not winning :P
Have never stay with the winning the second week.
#Winning ;)
Ordered, waiting for Fraud Check at 2checkout.
:)
Alles is gut.
wow, that was fast.
I have received my VPS details.
It’s instant setup, you don’t have to wait for 2CO to complete their screening ;)
Very nice pricing on both plans. Kind of reminds me of ChicagoVPS.
Support install PPTP it?
Yes, we support PPTP!
[root@vps ~]# cat/dev/net/tun
-bash: cat/dev/net/tun: No such file or directory
[root@vps ~]# cat/dev/ppp
-bash: cat/dev/ppp: No such file or directory
Cant’s support PPtp or openvpn , what should i do?
You can enable this from SolusVM? Have you tried this? If this fails contact their support!
How is urpad performance compared to buyvm?
stable like buyvm and good network speed like bluevm, that’s what had experienced,
Thank you for the kind words, we strive to provide superior service to our customers!
Nice, but no ubuntu 12.04 …
We do support Ubuntu 12.04 :) Simply order with any OS initially and you will find the option in SolusVM to reinstall to 12.04.
Let us know if you have any other questions.
Kevin,
This plan, four times bigger, say 1GB can go for $4/month, and can beat Chris@cvps, :)
I can only reinstall it to 11.04 (
You should find the option to reinstall to “ubuntu-12.04-x86_custom.tar.gz” or “ubuntu-12.04-x86_64_custom.tar.gz” in SolusVM.
Can you please email support@urpad.net with your SolusVM login details if you are unable to find this? We will be able to guide you and provide screenshots if you contact us. LEB is not our helpdesk.
I have personally created myself a VPS just now for testing purposes and was able to reinstall to the 12.04 templates without any issues.
Thanks
does it support TUN/TAP with the 256M plan?
Yep, it sure does. You can enable/disable TUN/TAP and/or PPP at anytime in our VPS control panel – fully automatic and on the fly.
Let us know if you have any other questions, we appreciate the opportunity.
Avoid URPad. Tried using their services and was disappointed and billed for cancelled services. Don’t bother trying to contact them either.
It’s funny because when it comes to us your always the first to trash, I have not seen you contribute to LEB before other than come on our listings and talk slander.
Please validate yourself as its still unclear to me what your issue really is, even if you are not a client anymore I would love to investigate this as it doesnt sound normal.
Thanks
My issues both surrounded billing. Two separate instances where attempts were made to contact URPad because of billing problems without getting a timely response or even a response. As I said before, I had a billing ticket open for over two weeks without reply and left a voicemail without receiving any reply.
Aside from that I had no technical issues with you as a provider. The price point and resources provided were good. Had billing support been better I would probably still be a client of yours.
Regards,
Cory
Yet more trashing on LEB without any requirement for evidence, and these trolls never volunteer it either.
About time for a degree of moderation with all the trashing going on.
Anyway good offer, price almost matches ChicagoVPS
Anthony.
Thanks Anthony.
I have 2 vps in L.A, solid performance, good job.
Thanks for the kind words John, we appreciate your continued business.
Current 256 UK location can be moved to this plan?
This promotion is available for new orders only. Also, we are not offering these specials in UK as we are pretty much full there.
To the devs: with the $12/yr plan, can I actually attach domains to this? Also, do I get unlimited subdomains/email accounts/etc like I do with the other, non-specialty plans? Please respond ASAP, I’m really interested in your offer. :)
do you know what vps is?
Yes, I just thought I’d ask because I wasn’t sure. It didn’t mention it in the order form and I’d rather verify before I buy it.
Of course you can host an unlimited number of domains with any VPS as you will have full, direct root access to your server. You can configure it however you wish and set your own limits when it comes to stuff like subdomains, addon domains, email accounts, etc. There’s no arbitrary limit.
This applies to every VPS provider out there that includes root access. This is likely what John was referring as it sounded like you were talking more about shared hosting rather than a VPS.
Let us know if you require any further clarification.
Thanks,
Kevin
nice offer.
im currently on your 1024mb plan and im very happy with it and im planning get this one also.
keep it up =D
Hi Keinstah,
Glad to hear that you are enjoying your VPS with us! We appreciate your loyalty.
Let us know if you have any questions.
Best,
Kevin
URPad rocks. Have had a VPS with them since February, very good experiences. Fast ticket turnaround, friendly support.
Kevin, can you handle custom quotes for Iceland?
Need to fill a recently emptied slot in the server farm, would like non-US location for SEO.
Hi John, we appreciate your continued trust and loyalty with URPad, I am extremely happy to see that you are satisfied with our service.
Please email sales@urpad.net – we would be happy to work out any custom requirements ;)
Thanks,
Kevin
Hello,
Do you guys offer some sort of one month trial for this plan?
I am willing to pay $1 to try this for a month before I commit to buying for a year.
I am a college student with little money
don’t lie,
Marc, unfortunately we cannot sell you a VPS for $1 as after payment processing fees it wouldn’t be profitable for us. We have been in business for 5 years under our parent company (FTNHosting.net) and own multiple established web hosting businesses. We have a good number of active customers among our brands and trust me we wouldn’t be in business after 5 years if our service was not solid. To this day we are still growing steadily and stronger than ever!
You can also see the other comments here, some people have commented with reviews about our service in this LEB listing. There are also more reviews about our service on Lowendbox’s forum site (Lowendtalk).
Let us know if you have any other questions, we appreciate the opportunity and hope to be working with you soon!
Thanks,
Kevin
After many months ChicagoVPS lose all my data, even i have all backup in central Backup area, so i decide to not use ChicagoVPS anymore and test this company, i have made 2 Orders and i was very sure i select Los Angeles in the order prosess, i get the VPS very fast! but not in LA, so i submit a Ticket and i have to wait to Tech Support be online, i call the phone number and no answer… For mee Speed on support is very important …
Hi Jorge, our technical support department operates 24×7 and is not a “lights out” department, we are truly available 24×7 and guarantee 30 minute response times.
What is your ticket ID? Ethan and I have been manning the phones today and have been receiving phone calls fine all morning and day, what number did you call from so I can see why you didn’t get an answer? Please feel free to email all of this information to me at kevin@ftnhosting.net as this is sensitive personal information of yours that you obviously wouldn’t want to post in public.
We realize speed and overall excellent service is important for everyone, and its our continuous goal to provide this to our customers, and we have been doing just that for the past 5 years we’ve been in business.
Best,
Kevin
If you have the same situation like me (Ordered LA location but received different location) don’t worry.
Ethan told me that Urpad is using ColoCrossing IP Space for LA DC.
Yes, these are new ranges which is why. Never rely on geo IP search tools to indicate where your server is located but rather rely on traceroutes. For one, geo IP search tools can be inaccurate depending on the tool used, and for two anyone can SWIP their IPs to any location they want so it really is not accurate.
We already requested ARIN to update the locations accordingly to match the server location for our LA ranges, and already received confirmation emails from them confirming the changes, so hopefully everything will be accurate within the next few days or so to minimize any confusions to customers moving forward.
Thanks
Real test IP for Iceland please.. ThorDCs PI space utilizes different routing than Advanias/Skyrrs PA space, even tho they use the same AS (Thor has a preference on Fjarskipti while Skyrr (naturally) prefers routing over…… Skyrr.)
Offer really sounds nice.
I have 2 questions:
1. are IP-adresses geolocated to US or Canada at Buffalo location?
2. what happens if bandwidth should be used up? Did not find any information on that on your website. Will the service just stop until next monath or do any costs occur for overages?
1. They are Geolocated to the US. You can check the test IP(s) for yourself.
2. The VPS will automatically be suspended when you have reached your bandwidth quota. However, you will receive multiple email notifications warning you are approaching your bandwidth limit for the month.
The VPS will be automatically unsuspended in the next billing cycle (new month), unless you choose to purchase an immediate bandwidth upgrade.
Thanks,
Kevin
I can recommend urPad. Besides my 2CO problems, their VPS service and support was awesome for me. Nicely working Boxes.
Glad to hear, Scott. Thank you for choosing us.
Really nice! but one problem – no direct payments via PayPal, URPad use 2Checkout for payments well known as suspected payment gateway,also take some unautorized charges, even cancel subscription.It seen even from comments.So far
2Checkout is an Inc500 company, which processes over 215 million per year. They are not in the business of scamming customers such as taking unauthorized charges/ cancelling subscriptions, or they would not process over 215 million dollars per year. Please see: http://www.inc.com/inc5000/profile/2checkoutcom
We (FTNHosting & its brands) are one of their largest vendors in the hosting/IT field and have been working with them for the past 4-5 years. We have absolutely no complaints about 2Checkout and it has always been a huge pleasure to work with them.
Some customers have payments fail 2Checkout’s fraud check if they put fake information that doesn’t match what is on file with Paypal, I have seen some people put fake billing information like “xxx” and “ss” for their address/country and wonder why their payment failed… well obviously this is why 2Checkout might reverse the payment to protect us from fraud (the seller).
Bottom line: If you have nothing to hide and are a legitimate customer, you won’t experience any issues with 2Checkout. Just don’t provide fake billing details when checking out and you won’t have any problems.
Really! Their website (2CO) looks like make by college students not a solid for a big company. Why not a accept payments directly via PayPal instead this, is a better and safe
Gotta love your false assumptions! Once again, 2Checkout is an Inc500 company, that processes over 215 million dollars in USD per year. They are not a small company by any means, nor are they ran by “college” kids. Many other companies worldwide process payments through 2Checkout and they are quite reputable. You can see this for yourself here: http://www.inc.com/inc5000/profile/2checkoutcom
We do not have a direct relationship with PayPal, since 2Checkout processes both Paypal and credit card payments for us with ease, and doesn’t require customers to create an account to check out.
Additionally 2Checkout also provides us with better fraud screening tools to prevent chargebacks. Whenever a customer makes a purchase, that purchase is automatically reviewed by 2Checkout’s Fraud Prevention Unit prior approving or accepting the payment. This reduces the chance of an instant chargeback in the event a fraudulent transaction were to occur, whereas with PayPal, the chargeback could be received before we have a chance to refund it, costing us lots of money in chargeback fees. This is just one of many reasons why more and more hosting companies (and even non-IT related companies in general) are switching over to 2Checkout to process their customer payments.
To each of their own, I guess. Why does it matter to you how we process our payments anyway? As a consumer, what matters is that we accept both Paypal and credit card payments – we do just that, so what’s the issue?
Let us know if you have any further concerns.
Thanks
We have used 2checkuut for a few years now, its been serving us well and we’ll never go back to accepting PayPal directly, 2checkout has a very unique fraud department, they along with our own billing department catch fraudsters on daily bases and without 2Checkouts help I don’t think we’d be a complete team in the billing department ;)
We process thousands with 2Checkout and never ever had a issue with them, I would say its safe to assume your judging a book by its cover in this case.
Moving forward hats off to Urpad and keep up the terrific sales.
I gotta tell you I just signed up, picked the wrong location, submitted a trouble ticket and had my VPS re-provisioned in the correct location. Time from ticket open to resolution? 8 minutes. Insane service!
Thanks Chris, we are happy to have you with us! Just let us know if you need anything, we are available 24×7 ;)
I can ping your test IP
Los Angeles, CA (Test IP: 98.143.159.202)
Minimum = 162ms, Maximum = 168ms, Average = 164ms
but can’t ping my service’s IP, and can’t connection with putty.
it’s offline?
Ticket #579788
It looks like you ordered your VPS with a special character in your password. Special characters include anything such as: ` \ * ) ( etc… which causes the VPS setup process to break, as SolusVM’s WHMCS *API* does not support advanced characters.
This caused your VPS setup to only half way complete, it looks like one of our staff already took care of you in ticket #579788 and recreated your VPS with an acceptable password. After its setup you will be able to change it to a password with advanced characters however during the initial setup process it must be a password with letters and numbers only.
This applies to every host utilizing SolusVM, not just us.
how is that possible !!!!!!
Hi there, this seems like a great offer, would it be possible to provide some test files on your server locations to test download speed from where I am?
Thanks
Well even before having a reply I subscribed because it’s just a great deal. I’m very happy with the speed so far, I’m in Belgium with a theoretical 50192 kbps home connection and I’m downloading from Buffallo, NY at 3,3mb/s, this is pretty much the max speed I have ever seen here.
Very happy so far, just waiting for a reply on the installation of TUN/TAP for openvpn.
Andre,
Happy to hear the VPS is nice and speedy for you! Welcome to URPad, if you ever need anything please remember we are available 24×7!
Thanks!
Got a box today and happy with performance. :)
A question:
Which are allowed and which are not?
Torrent, Private VPN, Private Proxy.
(I prefer to ask it here as I thought others may ask the same question)
Regards,
Babar.
Hi Babar,
We do not allow torrents however we allow both public/private VPN and proxies.
Thanks,
Kevin
Private torrent also not available?
Only for downloading, not as a seedbox.
Regards,
Babar.
Hi Babar,
This is something management will need to decide. Please email sales@urpad.net and I will flag your ticket to management to see if we can do this or not.
I’m sure they will not have any issues with it as long as the files you are downloading are 100% legal and not copyright, but please email us so they can confirm.
Thanks
hey Kevin:
do you offer/enable central backup in solusvm?
also do you allow vpn?
also can you please list the templates that you have in solusvm? thanks
That’s a negative on the instant setup. Signed up, paid up, and server still offline.
Did you sign up with any weird char’s in your root pass?
Apparently when I ordered from ChicagoVPS and Photon I had a star in my password and they told me solusvm’s API didn’t support it, breaking the setup process thus requiring a manual recreate or something.
Since then i learned to order without any weird letters as this is a problem with Api. My vps with urpad has been instant setup. Performance is decent as well. Will keep everyone updated.
Ahh, that must be it. I kept to using characters available on the US keyboard, but I guess that was still “too secure”. Thanks for the tip.
Curt is absolutely correct, I just explained this to consatan above. As Curt mentioned the same goes for every host using SolusVM and WHMCS.
The API does not support advanced characters which causes the setup process to be incomplete.
To anyone else reading this, keep this in mind, initially order your VPS with a root password that is letters and numbers only or else the setup process won’t finish, and after its setup you can change your password to something more complex to include advanced characters if you desire.
Angie, what is your invoice number so I can recreate your VPS with an acceptable password to get you online right away?
Thanks,
Kevin
Hi Kevin, someone else got to the support ticket and all is fine now. Thanks.
Glad to hear Angie. Welcome aboard!
It IS instant, you’re probably hung by Maxmind fraud check.
To confirm, yes our services are instant setup
Is it impossible for guys who have no credit card but Paypal to pay for the invoice? At least I’ve tried 3 times all failed in ‘Authorization Failed’…
Nope not instant setup. Waited almost two hours and still haven’t got it. :( And no, I didn’t use any special char for password
Sb,
We ran out of available IP addresses in our Buffalo location today as we received more orders than anticipated last night.
We were awaiting our upstream provider to issue more IPs for us, and at this time this has been done.
All pending orders in Buffalo should be processed now and everything is back to normal, so orders should now be 100% instant setup.
Sorry about that!
Thanks,
Kevin
Sb, did you still didn’t get your VPS?
Any recommendation from this company? i’m looking to have a VPS from them.
Regards.
Got mine yesterday. Setup really was fast: after returning from 2Ceckouts site service was shown active. VPS pingable even before i got the email with accessdata to the control panel.
As I am not a Linux pro, I can`t say or test too much. Reinstalled Debian minimal via Solus panel and set up PPTPd just to access US georestricted content. Works perfect for me.
Ran two speedtests:
dd if=/dev/zero of=test bs=64k count=16k conv=fdatasync
16384+0 records in
16384+0 records out
1073741824 bytes (1.1 GB) copied, 6.58529 s, 163 MB/s
dd if=/dev/zero of=test bs=64k count=16k conv=fdatasync
16384+0 records in
16384+0 records out
1073741824 bytes (1.1 GB) copied, 5.41396 s, 198 MB/s
Did not need any support so far, so I can’t say anything about it.
Thanks Bernd, and welcome aboard!
Is impossible buy, it seems that they do not sell to Brazil
Hello!
you do not sell for Brazil?
Does not have the registration form to Brasil. The purchase did not work, the support ticket was not responded.
que merda hein!
Are you looking for Brazillian? Change the language to Portuguese-br. It comes standard from WHMCS. I checked ours and it was there. I checked Urpad’s and it’s there.
Brazilian can not be client.
URpad answer:
Unfortunately we do not accept customers from Brazil anymore due with high risk and fraudulent chargebacks we’ve seen originating from this country when we did allow Brazil clients.
Cool, support was so fast :)
Glad to hear, we guarantee 30 minute response times but our average response time is just under a few minutes for our tech support department :)
If you ever need anything we are just a click away. Thanks for choosing us.
Hi, Kevin
Looking forward to buy one of these. Could you please put up some 100mb files so I can benchmark the throughput? Thanks,
Bo
Please email sales@urpad.net with the locations you’d like a test file of.
buy a $12 VPS today, cost many hours to install VPN but still fail, very sad. |0|
I had no problem installing vpn, it took like 50 seconds for vps-as.
Bought the same $12 VPS a day ago, don’t have the time to properly to set it up yet.
Seeing your comment, worried if the VPS is not possible with VPN, so I tried to set a PPTP VPN server on the VPS, following excellent guide below:
http://www.putdispenserhere.com/pptp-vpn-setup-guide-for-a-debian-openvz-vps/
Results: my VPN server is up and running on the new & shiny VPS without any problem (Windows 7 connects to the VPN server without a hitch)
You should provide more details of your problem, if you wanna people here to help you.
Riverszhao,
It is not an issue on our end if you do not know how to properly install a VPN. There are many guides online on how to setup OpenVPN if you do not know how. As 2 other people have already attested for, VPN works perfectly fine on our services, and John was able to get it working and installed in under a minute.
Thanks
VPN is working fine on my NY box. (OpenVPN)
A hint: Checkout if you have enabled TUN via SolusVM.
Sounds like a good deal. Can you setup your own reverse DNS?
Yes we can set rDNS/PTR record for your VPS IP. Let us know if you have any other questions!
You open ticket and they did it within 5 min for my case.
can i install nx server on ubuntu 11.04
You definitely can configure your VPS however you wish. You will have full root access to your VPS to do that.
Thanks
Very impressed so far!
It was installed and online by the time I could type in the SSH command to connect to it.
Reboots are insanely fast. The pre-configured CentOS image is great. Bandwidth looks good from doing yum installs.
This VM is faster than my current physical machine – I’m seriously considering moving everything here…
Thanks for providing such a good service at amazing prices.
Many thanks for the kind words Ben! =)
We strive to be the best and will continue to provide a divine hosting experience to our customers.
We appreciate the opportunity you have given us, welcome to URPad.
Can the 2GB plan be used as a weekly backup (cpanel) space for my other server?
Tshering,
Yes you can.
Thanks,
Kevin
I already have a VPS, but for $12/year, I would be insane to pass this up. Bought yesterday, came online instantly. Sent in a ticket today to sales and got a response in two hours. Pretty good, IMHO, I have no doubt that they monitor tech support even more closely. I contacted sales to ask for an upgrade to 512MB memory, and Kevin let me have it for $12 additional, rather than the usual $24. I now have a 512MB VPS for $24/year, rather than the $60/year I am paying from another company. I have a feeling I’m going to like Urpad a lot.
Thanks D. Strout, if you ever need anything else please don’t hesitate to let us know!
I may have spoken too soon. My post above was right after I paid the extra $12, and I figured with the service I had had so far with the sales department I could count on getting the upgrade in a few minutes. It’s been three hours, still sitting at 256MB memory and no response to the ticket. Hmmm…
Mr. Strout,
You have a SALES ticket, upgrades need to be done by management as sales personnel do not have access to SolusVM.
Additionally, you bumped your ticket 3 times in a row, because we didn’t reply in 1 hour. That is unacceptable for a sales request considering its not a service-impacting issue. If you are aware of a hosting company that offers 24×7 MANAGEMENT team, please let me know. You won’t find 1.
Also when you bump your ticket, you reset your position in the queue to be assisted. We are very busy with sales today since its Monday, and I personally did over 60 sales tickets since this morning already. Because of the Veterans Day weekend we let some of our other sales staff have Monday off, so its just Chris and I working on sales requests today. So its not helping your case by bumping your ticket 3+ times.
I also want to make it clear, as other clients of ours have commented for on LEB, we guarantee 30 minute response times on all TECHNICAL support requests, with our average response time being under a few minutes.
We’re very sorry that you expect your hosting provider to be staffed on a 24×7 basis on management and sales requests, however it is highly unreasonable and I have yet to see a hosting company staff management on a 24×7 basis.
Thanks,
Kevin
As I said on the ticket, all you had to do was tell me it would be a few hours (three, incidentally), and I wouldn’t have said anything. That is reasonable. Now that I know, I’ll keep my mouth shut for at least 24 hours.
…And I just got the upgrade. I was never unhappy about this, still not, and I’m sorry if I made you unhappy. Just a bit of friendly advice: if it will take some time, say so, and I’ll happily wait. My point still applies: when you respond quickly, ask for and are given money, and then don’t say anything for a while, it’s natural to wonder why.
Perhaps don’t bump your tickets 3 times in a row in the future for not receiving an instant response on a sales request, as you only caused delays for yourself by doing that =)
Thanks
I will be sure to keep that in mind. Thank you again for being relatively prompt with your replies and giving me a little extra for less. I’m happy with your service, and I expect I’ll be staying for a while.
If you require any additional assistance let us know.
Chris.M
Wow that is great price!!
I want that too, but with 1024MB Ram and some space/bandwidth upgrade.
Coz the 2nd plan you offer above is too big and exp for me :)
Sure.
Please email sales@urpad.net and we’ll give you an aggressive pricing on your required specs.
Thanks!
I was interested and also submitted a ticket.
But they refused me. :(
@Kevin and @Miller,
Can you do anything?
Urpad is great. My vps with them is faster, and way cheaper than my premium $40 vps with FH.
I’m loving it and will be moving everything here!
Thanks Kevin.
Curt
We appreciate your loyalty Curt =)
Hello, Its a very nice offer. I like to know do you provides any types of other memory like Swap/Vswap/Cached/brust or only 256M? Because I will host my wordpress website and Its hard to Run Apache with only 256M with PHP. Thanks Please Reply ASAP.
Hi Rohit,
We do not provide any vSwap nor burstable RAM with this offer, however we can actually sell you some vSwap/burstable RAM (or even just additional guaranteed RAM) if you really have a genuine need for it, email sales@urpad.net with what you need and we’ll come up with something fair for both of us.
Thanks,
Kevin
Does the 256 MB Guaranteed RAM includes the burst memory? If so, another 128MB is not “guaranteed”, because the threat might be killed when the server need the burst memory
Read above for my response to Rohit =) None of these special LEB promos featured include burstable/vSwap memory.
Thanks
Ordered the 12usd/year vps yesterday at lunchtime. Activated in just a couple of minutes. Set up PPTP using the script at http://www.putdispenserhere.com/pptp-vpn-setup-guide-for-a-debian-openvz-vps/ in more or less hal an hour. Set up shorewall this morning with a very limited effort just because I am lazy and I do prefer shorewall to do all the DNAT stuff :P. Now I can use an android smartphone as a webserver through 3g, then pptp and using the vps as entry point. Completely satisfied, going to show off some “magic” at a seminar next week :) Great job guys,
Thanks for the kind words Gianluca. We’re glad to have you with us and we look forward to working with you for many years to follow!
We appreciate the opportunity.
Just got my VPS online. So far I am very impressed. Seems to be a great company so far. Thanks for offering such a great package
Coincidentally enough, it looks like we have a couple Curt’s @ LEB! (see above comments, another client named Curt also bought a VPS from us) :p
Glad to have both of you with us, thanks for choosing us, and remember we are available 24×7 for you if you need anything!

Wonder what this 2CO situation is about, since other hosts are able to use paypal and tolerate its issues (which I’m sure exist). All processors including Paypal have all kinds of obnoxious crap associated. Paypal is useful enough that I held my nose and signed up anyway, but one such account is enough, I don’t want another one.
Paul,
2Checkout does not require customers to create an account with them. In fact, I don’t even think that is possible.
Checking out is as simple as checking out with PayPal, all it takes is a few clicks, and 2Checkout will prompt you whether you’d like to pay via PayPal or credit card.
If you choose Paypal they will simply redirect you to Paypal to complete your payment within a few clicks through Paypal. Then your VPS is setup instantly by our billing system, and login details dispatched to your email.
I hope this helps clarifies as you were clearly misinformed.
Regards,
Kevin

Do a benchmark of $12/yr 256MB, it is very nice score. Hope it will be stable.
Considering buying a $7/m 2GB plan.
Blogged several days before, Insane price with insane performance, my first VPS from URPad
I’m impressed.
Thank you for taking the time to review our service on your website! I’m glad to hear you’re impressed with our service.
One of the most recommended provider. Assistance is fast and very prompt. They even give a very flexible price for a custom setup. I just hope this would stay for a long time. :)
Thanks Juan. We try to be as flexible and reasonable as possible for our clients while providing the personal level of service.
Glad to hear that our services have been working out well for you, thanks for choosing us :)
This is almost too good to be true. I think I might have to get one more. The Dallas VPS I purchased has easily been the best $12 I’ve ever spent. I should note that it seems like this IP range is under constant automated brute force attacks from all over (mostly China), so be sure to pick a strong password from the very beginning and ramp up security tight. I should note that I’m new to this VPS game though, and this is probably typical. Overall I’m blown away.
Trey, first of all welcome to URPad, we appreciate your trust and the kind words. You should not be enduring brute force attacks as the IP ranges are newly assigned. Feel free to ticket support and we’ll get your VPS IP address changed to see if that will help.
Thanks
I’m not really worried about the brute force SSH, I have Fail2Ban blacklisting IP’s and remote root is disabled. They seem to have settled down quite a bit now. These kinds of things mostly just make life more interesting anyway. I am, however, presently experiencing difficulties getting a second box to boot on the Savory node in LA. A ticket has been opened.
Hi Trey,
Thanks for your continued business. I believe your issue has been resolved now, if you have any other outstanding problems please don’t hesitate to get in touch!
Thanks,
Kevin
Just ordered my second VPS with these guys! :D
Curt, thank you very much for your continued business!
Are any of these on the newer kernels that aren’t wonky with memory accounting?
We have both RHEL5 (2.6.18) and RHEL6 (2.6.32) nodes within our network, if you happen to be setup on an undesirable node please contact us and we can gladly migrate you to another node (either 2.6.18 or 2.6.32), for the most part orders are being setup on our RHEL6 nodes and we have stopped provisioning new nodes on RHEL5, as RHEL6 has been much more stable for us and provides better memory management.
Thanks!
Accepted the $12/yr offer. Very easy and fast setup. I even screwed up the order and put the VPS to the wrong location, and they got that squared away for me quickly.
Service so far has been great.
Thanks and welcome aboard =)
Have IPV6 address?
I’am ini LA node. Any ipv6 address?
I just ordered my first VPS with those guys !! hope it will be ok :)
Hello Paul,
Thanks for your purchase let us know if you have any questions. :)
This week, I have ordered 2 of the $7.00 /month offers. One in Dallas, the other in LA and so far so good. I may order another tomorrow as this such a great deal.
Hello WM,
Thanks for your purchase let us know if you have any questions. :)
I’m very interested in this offer.
It’s available in Luxembourg?.
Hello Fran,
Unfortunately this offer is only available in the locations specified in the offer.
Sorry for the inconvenience.
I am interested at this: http://www.lowendbox.com/blog/urpad-12year-256mb-openvz-vps-in-los-angeles-dallas-and-buffalo/#comment-85600
Is it still available?
VPS is best , only regret is not IPV6. Hope to add IPV6 address support,thanks.
How long is this deal good until?
I have paid but 2 days not get VPS package information.Anyone help me with this?
This server is down now http://control.dzfav.net/ ?
Cant’t login and access……..
Thanks, I will try.
Urpad is down….
Hello loly,
Everything appears to be in working order. If this is pertaining to a service have you opened a ticket?
Thanks,
Chris.M
Both my UrPad VPS in LA and Dallas are slow to the point of being completely unresponsive. I will open a ticket for each.
It doesn’t matter, they oversold like 1000 times, everybody will be bogged down, can’t solve this unless they unload some of the users to other nodes, which they don’t have. So that’s it.
I paid from 25/11 but have not received the information package vps.I have sent a request for help and totally disappointed with the service.T has submitted a request for a refund.But have yet to see them reply
Did you check your spam box? That is where mine was dumped.
URPad is the best!!! Never had one bit of trouble and they allowed me to add on more storage!!
Fine!
Got one. Happy!
Fast and reliable support team!
Very fast activation in less a minute, just recently order :)
Ah those good ol’ days!
I remember I got a URPad vps back a year ago, never crashed or had any problems!
Very easy to use and a great customer support!
I got the vps really fast, didn’t have to wait at all. If I would buy a vps in the future, URPad would be my first choice!
Keep going strong URPad!
Unlike many of the people here talking about PPTPd, I can’t get it to work—even though I use the script mentioned in earlier comments. There are no indications in my OS (Debian 6) that PPP is enabled. Not sure what to do.
I do not quite understand.You try to reinstall
Hi, I’d like to try this service. I want to know much does it cost me for a yearly 2gb memory vps.
$7/m 2GB this offer is also not vSwap/burstable RAM ?
ordered my VPS around 8 hours ago, not yet running.
Emailed asking how long does it take them to commission a VPS, and they responded 6-8 weeks… I assume they mean affiliate commission!
Not a “instant setup” as claimed…
I have found that its only instant when you order with out the LEB order link. but then you dont get the low rate.
