Via this WHT offer. NBVPS is offering some pretty cheap OpenVZ VPS plans starting at $20/year for 128MB/180MB memory, 8GB storage and 100GB/month data transfer. One step up gets you “VPS256” at $3/month (first month $2.10 with promo code WHT30OFF). Here is the sign up link, and you get
- 256MB guaranteed/512MB burstable memory
- 15GB storage
- 200GB/month data transfer

Payment available in either PayPal or Alipay (for Chinese customers I guess). Servers in Phoenix AZ with PhoenixNAP (test IP: 174.138.175.114). Quite a few fails on my standard test. No SSL on the ordering forms. ToS and AUP are invalid links on their home page. There appears to be a contact number on their Contact page, but I am not sure how valid it is.
Domain was registered 2 weeks ago by someone in Guang Dong, China, and it appears to be the English version of his NBVPS.com VPS business (website in Chinese).

LEA (LowEndAdmin) is the original founder of LowEndBox and the visionary who gave rise to an entire movement around minimalist, efficient hosting. In 2008, LEA launched LowEndBox with a simple but powerful idea: that it was possible to run meaningful applications, web servers, VPNs, mail servers, and more – on small, low-cost virtual machines with minimal resources.
At a time when most infrastructure discussions were dominated by high-end servers and enterprise platforms, LEA championed the opposite approach: lightweight Linux distros, self-managed servers, open source software, and thoughtful optimization. This philosophy gave birth to the term “Low End Box”, which would come to define a new genre of hosting tailored to developers, tinkerers, and budget-conscious users around the world.
Through LowEndBox and its companion forum, LowEndTalk, LEA built the foundation for what would become one of the most active and enduring communities in the hosting world, prioritizing knowledge-sharing, transparency, and accessibility.
After several years of nurturing the site and community, LEA stepped away from active involvement, passing the torch to a new generation of admins, contributors, and moderators. Today, LEA remains a respected figure in the LowEnd ecosystem, credited with launching a platform and philosophy that continues to influence thousands of infrastructure providers and users globally.
LowEndBox’s legacy, and its thriving community, is a direct result of LEA’s original vision.
It’s said that this company is founded by a Chinese senior high school student…
Should be college 2 weeks later.
He is “NB” very much…
hahah…Cow Cunt VPS, yep, NB in chinese is “very good”, you know chinese people like big things, okay, Cow Cunt is big!! so… :)
yeah, a CowCunt country is what pp pray for,
@CrazyFeng — took me a while to figure out what “NB” means. For those who are interested, here is the Wikipedia article on NB and the last entry:
Once you follow the link, it says
Okay. CowCuntVPS — that makes sense…
First we had ponies, now this… :(
Francisco
On the NB interpretation, can refer to: http://baike.baidu.com/view/54728.htm and of course it is in chinese.
It has changed in chinese words, NB not means cow cunt but a word means good.
Yeah I know. That’s why Wikipedia highlighted that it literally means cow cunt, which implies the word itself means something else (F’ing Awesome in this case).
Sorry I was just having fun learning new Chinese vocab.
NB,a new word popular on the Internet,is both a noun and an adjective…But we mainly use this word as an adjective,which means super and extraordinary.It is a commendatory term.What you get from wiki is its noun meaning.(original meaning)
I’m happy that you are interested in Chinese culture.
@LowEndAdmin haha!! well in Singapore we use NB for abbrev in our convo with the chinese guys here as NaBey. N its being used regularly especially among the street gangs when they converse loudly in the public.
I know he’s a liar, in china.
Would you be able to elaborate on that?
He said he is SecuredServers.com Asia CEO, I think this is a scam.
why do u know it ?
He must be a liar
Certainly “citation needed” on that, but it would be quite a crazy claim.
He is just a highschool student, not punished by law.
But people in China think highly of his vps hosting of international version (nbvps.net)
In China ,it’s commonly believed that exporting is always better than domestic
Most people in hostloc.com do not think nbvps has good quality and services
No one think highly,I am Chinese,and when I see such vps provided by Chinese oneman,I just ignore,a friend of mine try it and now leave it.
He is a just been admitted to Beijing university of the top graduates
Who knows the truth? Maybe lots of people in China know he is a senior high school student, but is anyone really know the truth? We just know something which the nbvps told us, also we are not able to elaborate on that.
NBVPS.COM in China credit is not good, such as severe overbooking, poor service, performance, often under down etc.
介个需要支持。
yeah come on NBVPS ~
So cool!@
The wesite are built by me,Haha
which one呢？
nbvps.net
I`m not mean to design it but to help him getting the website template, editing them and manage the pics.
I think he is very good 。
Don’t believe Chinese cheater.
Not sure but really afraid of them. made-i-c is always what i stay away from.
Where are you from, I wanna know..
He is a student,but he have much money,he can pay a lot for servers and penalty.
Is he in China, right?
How can you drive him to a court?
for the english speakers: you may want to check out his post history on WHT
he got kicked out of like 3 or 4 hosts, and immediately bitched up a storm purely because he was intentionally using it for warez hosting/being the target of a lot of ddos
then asking why he got booted, and something something legal action something refund something
it’s pretty funny
Interesting. Just read his encounters with TailorMadeSevrers and TurnKeyInternet…
Aahh,, yeah, thats why NBVPS look similar for me..
*familiar not similar -___-”
why i mess my support ticket and comment in LEB.. (stupid me)
Ouch…
Oh those are a hoot.
I just to have a contact over at PhoenixNAP but he went elsewhere a couple of months ago.
I wonder if I should drop him an email about their new client and see if he’ll forward it on….
Everyone should know, nbvps is a liar.
Nbvps has an taobao shop, like ebay.com. They have too many bad reviews.
The nbvps.com deceived many Chinese people. Some people buy their vps, but they found, The vps unable to work. And no one to deal with the problem.
Now nbvps.net ready to deceive customers around the world. Because in China, everyone knows them, they can not continue to operate.
Although nbvps owner is a students, but I think his character is poor. He only know the money, any customer is not important to him. He does not respect the customer.
+1
service is poor, uptime is very low, even nouptime. why many chinese guys come to suggest it?
Where are you from?
China is so funny…
the nbvps is niubivps
niubi = the Super
Ok, regarding the comments, this is now officially “China town” on LEB?
Just shut up everybody! I signed up, got a VPS instantly, the OS is actually the one I picked when signing up. This guy is legit.
Legitimacy is being evaluated through a longer period of time. Not though a one-time action like a simple set-up of an account.
And you are?
The owner probably!
maybe the cowcunt man.
I’m sure you’ll be offering some proof shortly.
Of course most folks can’t be bothered to do so….
Have to purge some of the comments here and fail some that were still in moderation. LowEndBox blog is a English language blog. I know English is not their native tongue for a lot of people but thanks for the effort of making an attempt to express in this awful language.
I’ll be removing comments that have > 50% Chinese, as it would not benefit others who wish to participate. Thanks.
I’m eying those 42 votes myself. Seems like a lot. Even the last Quickweb offer only has 10 and BuyVM has 5.
I expect the votes to get used more on newer listings giving our listing is a month old now :P
Francisco
I thought that too but I’m only seeing small number of votes on them. Going back a few days, Fibervolt has 6 and DMB has 9.
English is aWWWWWWful HAHAHA, that was funny xD
I bought a 256M VPS, very good performance. Stability remains to be seen.
I optimistic about NB!
加油!
I hate NBVPS, they have a very bad of the President.
NEWS：now,NBvps all VPS has been deleted, He said “nbvps has hacked, Not his problem.”
Competitors,ar,,everywhere
hacking their servers,making bad comments on them…
It’s difficult to run business now…
I know that is a scam.
From what I see above, I think they made their own problems.
They probably got hacked by a former client who they screwed over. If they haven’t already been ToS’ed by PhoenixNAP that is.
Trying to open the link, and found this error :
“Unable to connect
Firefox can’t establish a connection to the server at http://www.nbvps.net.”
LOL :D
He doesn’t even have ioncube loader installed -.-
It is OK now~~
Today nbvps lost some vps data. They said attacks by hackers. If you want to buy their services, I recommend backing up your data every days.
NBVPS.NET –Compensation notice

2011/8/30
It’s a good news that nbvps offers to compensate his clients for another 2 months free service.
Just 2 days before,directspace was down and my data(Portland node) was completely lost!No compensation..
Compared with this,I prefer NB.
Although I have never use the service provided by this company, I don’t know why there are so many people blacken his name by making bad comments on it.(They may have never used this company’s vps..)
We need objectivity!~
What node were you on? I still have a VPS down at directspace :((
What a mess =\
Did they lose everyone’s data?
Francisco
Not everyone..It seems that most people just found their vps unaccessible for several hours.
I was lucky that I have backuped all my data before the failure.
I transfer my websites to a buyvm vps instantly
They said hackers compromised their whmcs, deleted some vps. This information comes from a Chinese forum (www.hostloc.com). I’m not good at Chinese, but I see a lot of bad reviews about nbvps.
By the way,your English is not good ,2….haha ..
I want to correct some grammar errors:
2 months “of” free service
“blacken” should be “blackening”
Compensation is not important. You must understand, nbvps no technical. Their whmcs had been hacked.
When looking at the comments this seems to be quite a mess and not a rock solid provider one should take into account when searching for a VPS. Maybe if you want to hack some minutes on a box but not for a durable amount of time.
Thank you for everyone’s support. Yesterday our main website suffered a big DDos attack and back online after 2hours.We have add SSL in our whole website now. You can order our products safety and quickly.
“NB” means very good in china, it just have almost the same pronunciation with( cow xxx). But many peopled use cow(N in china) to praise someone and use B(not cunt) to say somthing is positive, you can view the explain in china wiki with this link http://baike.baidu.com/view/54728.htm
For some person of the same occupation misinterpret the meaning of nb, I really don not want to say more.
Yesterday, our VPS suffered a big issue and we recoverd most of the data but on some VPS on node1 cannot be recovered. For the affected users, we have offered them 2 months VPS free of charge.
Thanks for everyone’s support of NBVPS.NET. We promise we will always doing our best.
NBVPS.NET
So, NB means “goodbye and take care” in Chinese, right? :)
I;m sorry but this sounds like more of the “blame everybody but ourselves” responses you made over at WHT.
First I want to tell you what the meaning “Kengdie” is in Chinese.”Kengdie” means make sb.be in trouble or cheat sb..
This “Kengdie” oneman reseller is well known for cheating vps users in China.Now He has no space to cheat vps users in China any longer ,because everyone realized he is a liar and cheater. I suspect he is planning to cheat people from different countries and ruan away.
I dare to say this “Kengdie” reseller will disappear from your sightes in three months.
I could not hack support in that Language ^_^
He is absolute a run away oneman and he just lost every data of his chinses customers.
I don’t think anybody should trust NBVPS, seriously.
And i think lowendbox should stop listing NBVPS because promoting NBVPS.net is just one of his marketing measures targeting to chinese. (Lowendbox.com is quite famous with chinese, but most of them don’t even understand english quite well.)
The boss of NBVPS claimed that lowendbox.com list NBVPS.net because lowendadmin think NBVPS is a very good VPS provider. And of course because you don’t understand chinese so you are unable to know about this unless i tell you.
So i think , don’t let this guy fool you, my dear lowendadmin. And list some creditable provider instead please.
At last, NBVPS is just a joke, don’t take it seriously, and have fun.
I think this is a liar
I lost my data
Yes, he is a liar.
We Lost 14 customers data in node 1
NOT ALL OF THEM.
How many customers you have? All and 14 there a difference? Data is very important for every one. You are a liar without technology. You’re just a student, your character is very poor. Your parents know your behavior? You break the law, and understand?
You’re posting that you’re losing clients? Oh that’ll make me want to sign up with your company….
Please be aware that you shouldn’t say ‘We’, You just a run over night oneman.
The CEO of NBVPS is a “富二代”.
“富二代” in Chinese is the child of a very rich father.
hahah…
No No No.
50% Good and 50% Bad.
Careful
It’s a wast of my time!
I think he’s ran away.
I bought one,it never worked for me.
What I get response from support is “reboot your vps then it will work”,I did reboot,nothing changed.Then no response from him.
Why would you even buy one despite all the comments and threads all around? Some negative review might be common or normal but over tons of negative review shouldnt it call for you to be more careful.
Year,I should be more careful.
My friend bought one befor I did.His vps was ok ,then I made the order.
When I found the probrom,ticketed him ,got no response,then I google it,found you guys are talking about it :(
