Chris, from URPad, recently sent in these three LowEndBox offers for you guys. According to Chris, Urpad are the only LEB provider offering that much resources all at the $12/yr pricepoint, and the only provider offering it in 3 different locations.
2K13 $12/YR
| 2K13 2GB RAM

All servers are RAID protected and their SSD plans are using Samsung 830 SSD Drives. That thread has over 170 comments with a mix of good and not so good comments. Lets hope with the new having recently passed, any issues have now been fixed. If you’re a customer – make sure you let us know what your experience has been.

Howdy everyone. We look forward to sharing our latest promotion with the LowEndBox community and we’ll be happy to answer any questions you all may have.
Locations other than US please :)
We’ve got several locations outside of the US with more to come, however this promotion is only for our locations with excess stock. Keep an eye on LEB and LET for future promotions that include our other locations. =]
What locations most interest you? Open up a sales ticket and see if we can accommodate your needs.
LUX and ICE may be interested :)
I contact support two times before,and they cannot help with yearly offers for LUX and ICE Also I just have no idea why they also two times provide me a wrong NY location with the same IP range instead requested LA and IL..
Whats your ticket number?
MannDude – any plans for Australian locations? Been using you guys for a while and really happy with your services but would love to get some servers on my side of the world. Even maybe some in southern Asia?
cheers
Aaron
Hi,
I see the test IPs, only one is Colocrossing but the other DC’s Colocrossing use so are you using Colocrossing for all those locations too?
Not all locations are with ColoCrossing, that is correct. We only operate a few locations with them.
Billing Cycle is $13,why?
Hi mymon, thank you for your interest in URPad! You can order the VPS for $12/YR using the promo code: L3BK1W1
Please let us know if there is anything we can do for you.
Also, some of you will be very happy to know that we’ll be offering services in Miami, Florida later today! We’ll be extending the 2GB RAM VPS promotion in our new Miami location later today and it will automatically be added as an option during checkout once it becomes available.
I would recommend you all to stay away from these oversold servers. Their TOS also states that they offer no refunds.
Go with something a little bit more serious.
I wanted to give my thoughts on this… I have two VPS’s with them and haven’t had any problems that past year and a half I’ve had them. As to getting something more serious…. for me, I just needed a place to put a few casual websites but with more freedom than shared hosting services at the cheapest price. It isn’t the best service ever but you get what you pay for, right? Honestly, if my server were to go down for an hour or two, it wouldn’t be the end of the world for what I use it for. But like I said, I haven’t had any problems. Just saying.
very good ha-ha
Before I bought it. But I also want to buy … And I would recommend it to friends
This promotion is available for existing customers as well, not just new ones. Glad to see you’re happy with your service!
Just ordered my third vps with these guys (>_<)
Never had any problems~ URPad rocks !
Thanks for your input! It’s very much appreciated!
Hello. Just wanted to point out that the description for 2K13SSD states $6.95 a month whereas the order page lists $7.95 a month. Thanks.
Hi there. This is because this promotion requires a coupon code.
Be careful with this one if you store anything important on your vps thats not backed up every hour. They may suspend your service and refuse to provide logs or anything to backup their clams.
competitors always tries to bring down Urpad, Jealous, I guess…
Hello URPad!
I see what you did there ;)
Hey Taylor,
Care to provide a ticket # so that I may look into this? If you were suspended wrongly or treated in an unfair manner this is something we need to investigate.
Thanks.
The account was deleted, I will look through emails and get back to you when time allows.
Well, we don’t delete accounts. Even if you were suspended or terminated your account would still be available.
Hi , going to purchase 2K13 $12/YR. have geenrated the invoice but when going to pay from moneybookers it says recipient is no more receving the paymetns . what is the next way to purcahse coz my card is added only on moneybookers.
Please open a billing ticket and we’ll get this sorted out for you.
Thanks!
I would recommend people to stay away from this awful company. Bad uptime, Bad service.
Just don`t.
Do you have any Ticket ID’s for I can look into your claimed issues?
Hello Marcus,
Do you have any ticket ID’s for I can look into your claimed issues?
Thanks,
Chris.M
Agree with you 100%, rude support team, suspended me for running a gameserver and refused a refund under the distance selling regulations.
Joe, drop your distance selling regulations bit. Just like how the dmca is irrelevant in the UK.. so is the distance selling regulation in the USA. Instead of slandering the company here why don’t you bring it up with the office of fair trading in the UK which deals with the DSR.. let’s see what they say to you.. By the way you haven’t answered my riddle. what does 1+1=?
would be happy to be a customer but sadly , no irc is allowed :(
I think its for web hosting, i have irc clients (znc) installed on my server and never get any notice from them. But now that you say so, i will read term again :)
This is correct. No IRC.
cannot pay it by paypal?
I have purchased successfully through PayPal
May be something wrong with my PAYPAL account……
Still experiencing this issue? You may wish to try again or try a different payment method if available to you.
urpad payment is very poor, …..
Just with the bad payment 2checkout….
I got two of the $12/yr ones last November (on nodes “Easy” and “Zulu”) to host some simple (mix of static and dynamic) sites for friends and family, and the occasional ssh tunnel when I’m on public wifi. So far there’s only been one incident around mid-December where connection to the Easy node was flimsy (tested from several locations). Though support did not provide much information on the reason, it was resolved in ~12 hours. Everything has been smooth since.
I/O is around 80-110 MB/s depending on time of day. I would say their AUP is a bit restrictive (no irc/games/p2p/adult), but if you just want to host mid-/low-traffic websites, $12/yr is great.
IPv6 is coming soon: https://twitter.com/URPad/status/268116269318934528
(PS: The TOS link in the post is missing a http)
(PS: The TOS link in the post is missing a http)
Danke, Herr!
Lol, what else were you expecting for 12$/year?
As far as my needs are concerned, the AUP is fine. I was simply pointing out for others. I don’t know what your problem is.
Just to clarify, we do allow legal adult content in most our locations. Other than that, yes, you are correct. No IRC/Game Servers/p2p.
Maybe the TOS needs an update then?
“Examples of unacceptable material on VPS/RDP/Dedicated servers include: […] any material that, in our judgment, could be considered adult content, threatening, illegal, or violates our terms of service in any manner may be removed from our servers (or otherwise disabled), with or without notice.”
My Urpad is always up from the time I bought it last cybermonday.
Awesome! Glad to see that!
Got a blank screen after clicking order – clicked it again but it appears to have gone through twice.
Just a note for anyone else as its annoying – had to submit a ticket now and causes hassle.
We recently dumped Apache and switched our billing/support panel over to Nginx. It appears that what you described has happened a couple times before. It’s rare, but we’re aware of the issue and are working to get this corrected to prevent it. It’s a minor inconvenience but it’s still an inconvenience and for that we apologize.
No problem at all, I’m all paid and done now so looking forward to the provision of my service :D
It should have been created automatically after payment was made. Whats your order number? I’ll sort this out for you right now.
My invoice number was:
124221
Many thanks.
I can’t reply directly to your most recent response, however I see your order was indeed paid for and has now been setup. Your details on how to connect to your new VPS have been emailed to you. Apologies for the delay!
I’ve seen good performance from my Urpad VPS’s and their support has been quick and more accommodating than some providers.
It’s funny; I just had my first downtime (1.5 hrs) with them shortly after they posted this ad. The VPS are back online now but it wasn’t planned maintenance as far as I know.
Hey there Kris,
I must of came online after this outage as I’ve yet to see any reports of it via the ticket queue. I’m glad that your service has treated you well thus far however, and if you ever need anything please don’t hesitate to contact us.
Is tor access permitted (assuming within the AUP)?
Hey there George,
Unfortunately we’re not allowing TOR access. While we support online privacy we need to keep ourselves protected from some of the bad things that can and have happened to providers allowing TOR. I hope you understand.
My VPS un 2 minutes, Amazing and very good performance…
When you have a Windows vps promo?
Hopefully sooner than later. We’re awaiting some new hardware for new Windows nodes. I’ll have to check about that.
Got services in Texas and Iceland, nothing but good to say, no issues at all with performance or support.
Woop woop! Glad to see you’re happy Lee. If you ever need anything, you know how to reach us.
Could you provide test download files, please?
Hello! is VPN and file hosting Allowed? :) (BOTH will be password protected and secured/blocked from public access)
This is for the yearly plan that is :)
Hey Mostafa,
You won’t have a problem with running what you described. Using your VPS as a VPN or for legal file hosting is okay. Please let us know if you have any other concerns.
Nice offer guys, well done!
Thanks!
please make SSD plan in LA
please close Invoice:124210
Hi there, consider it done.
For those reading and wondering what this was about: A duplicate service was created for him upon checkout so I removed the duplicated service/invoice.

How long this offer and coupon are gonna last? Think I’ll need a vps in a week or so.
It should still be active then. If not, please open up a sales ticket and link me to this comment. =]
very cheap
Hi customer from the Urpad $12 VPS here,
As for me I’m really happy, the technical support is really fast (but not the billing support, well if you consider a day of waiting to be slow…), performance is good, all in all a good purchase (And I will order a new one for other need probably).
The only minor problem though is the low number of different OS, not turnkey or other interesting stuff.
The Ubuntu server 12.04 is also a bit bloated unfortunately, so be sure to turn off samba and other unnecessary service if you install it because it can bring your server down. The reason is that asian bot try to enter your server by brute force, and so ‘DDOS’ you via Samba (It’s not Urpad specific mind you, I have friends in France and Belgium having the same problem). So, you might want to fail2ban and max the jail time.
And/or you can install a Debian 6 minimal (available). Work great but when they say ‘minimal’ they mean it, so be prepared to install thing like vim and sudo…
*install fail2ban

Can I get RHEL5 or CentOS, or are the Linux systems limited ti Debian and Ubuntu?
Nevermind; I clicked on the order link and was able to see a list of Unix OS options. For the record, as of this writing they have a few versions of CentOs, Debian, and Ubuntu.
Hi,
URPAD Representatives, this time you are providing 20 GB Disk Space with 256 MB Plan where as we got 15 GB. Wouldn’t we get the increasement ??
Warm Regards,
Nagib Mahfuz
I asked that, and they said MO.
Mo-> No
Nodes change, hardware gets better as does capacity, it is not always possible to offer old customers the same deals as new ones, I am sure they could possibly do it but the disk space given at the time of the deal would have been based on the capacity at the time, in order to upgrade old customers they would need to migrate your VPS/ probably change IP too which would cause you down time and them hassle.
:)
Picked up a $12 deal, instant activation on payment and it has been running like a champ for over 24 hours. Snappy response times across the board. Disk IO and network tests were surprisingly good as well. Definitely seems to be a good buy. If anything comes up in the next few months I will post it here, at least everything is off to a great start (can’t always say that based on experience with other LEB deals).
Thanks for the kind words, glad to see you’re happy with your service so far. If you ever need anything please don’t hesitate to open a ticket.
Regards.
I’m more used for NY VPS (east cost) can some people post some EU connectivity tests ?
If you picked up a $12 account can you run that :
wget freevps.us/downloads/bench.sh -O . -o /dev/null|bash
(or wget the script first with -O somefile, open it to see what it does if you’re the paranoid type, then run it)
I have a total of 3 VPS’s with them. One $12 deal and two $19 Deal. Among them, I got 1 Gbit connectivity on $19 Deals ;)
Quite Nice Performance. I will post the benchmarks later.
Hey there, glad to see your happy. Looking forward to the benchmarks.
That was one time when Kevin Hillstrand used to reply here. And now you. Yet, I have good wishes for you.
i was About ordering but am kind of stock i hate monthly billing, why cant you accept a year payment or are you afraid of closing down, i dont want excess service charge on me. i prefer year subscription
The 256 MB plan is on yearly basis. Only 1GB plan is here monthly. But, I hope you can pay for a year also !
Hi there,
We have some yearly deals available, however if you wish to prepay for a year you may open a ticket with us and we’ll get you sorted out. We’ve been around for years and have no plans on going anywhere soon. =]
Thanks for your interest.
SUSPENDED ME FOR RUNNING GAMESERVER, THEN REFUSED A REFUND. UNDER THE DISTANCE SELLING REGULATIONS, THEY HAVE TO GIVE ME A REFUND EVEN IF I CHANGE MY MIND WITHIN THE FIRST 7 DAYS FROM PAYMENT – I ASKED FOR A REFUND WITHIN THOSE 7 DAYS THEY SAID NO. They then started to threaten me when I said I was going to report them.
Horrible company, fast but RUDE support team.
Whats your ticket number so that I can look into this?
As stated on their TOS
“Gameservers (e.g., Minecraft) are prohibited on our servers due with the level of CPU abuse we’ve seen originating from them.”
My opinion is if you have broke the TOS, then you are not entitled to a refund.
What? What happens if the company you purchase from is not in the UK? (For example URPad)
Glad you are suspended, hope they terminate you forever…
You use of all caps shows your I.Q level. Joe i’ll give you a vps free of charge if you can answer me this riddle. 1+1=?
2 !
Can I have it ? ^^
:P you gave away the answer! bad bad bad
Had a 4GB VPS of these, support was quite rude to me, and also wouldn’t give me a refund because I was running ONE minecraft server, so then I decided to host a voice server, which wasn’t the best of quality, and also random downtimes.
Hi Adam,
We’ve been cussed out before, and we still don’t resort to rudeness in our messages. If you have a ticket #, I’d like to look this up because. I have to disagree with you and say that I highly doubt any of our staff was rude to you in a ticket.
2K13 $12/YR
no vSwap
Are you still provisioning accounts on IceLand & have started at Miami Location ??
Our Iceland nodes are all locked and pending new stock. Miami has been online for a couple days now, we’ll be posting a WHT and LET thread later promoting this location!
Just wanted to make a quick observation here since Liam is incorrect.
Many providers offer the $12/year offer with the same amount of resources.
Also, the whole no game server and IRC thing is a big turnoff, go with someone that offers this as it shows they are more stable and know how to control their nodes.
Frank..ly you lack knowledge in this environment.
I don’t think so. Frank’s words are somewhat true. Bcz, ChicagoVPS allows GameServer/IRC and many more company’s. So, what’s your opinion ?
My opinion is just that. You can’t say a company doesn’t know what is it doing because it doesn’t provide a service. It’s ridiculous to say such a thing.
It’s kinda like saying company A. is crap because they don’t provide dedicated servers. Or doesn’t provide xen, or doesn’t provide exchange server, or doesn’t provide etc…
So the whole no irc gameservers is a turn off for him/her. fine leave it at that, don’t buy it. But to go on saying that a company doesn’t know what it is doing because they don’t provide a service.. is well.. Oo
Hence why I replied with “Frank..ly you lack knowledge in this environment.” and if you can’t understand why that reply, I’ll waste no more of your time. :)
We don’t allow game servers BECAUSE we want you to offer a solid and stable service. We don’t wish to cater to that market, instead we focus on providing a consistently stable and reliable service without allowing DDoS and abuse magnets such as IRC and Game Servers to be your neighbors on our node. Sure, other providers offer them. That’s fine. They’ll probably have more gray hair on their head before we do. =]
We are using the same VPS rented from URPad nearly for a year (Registration Date: 02/20/2012), we haven’t had any problems. I can recommend URPad.
Thanks for your comments!

Do you plan to add IPv6 support?
We sure do. Not sure on the ETA, but yes, we do plan on adding IPv6 support.
I had ordered one VPS from them and stunned by the performance of the vps when comparing with the previous vps i had with other hoster.
And i went on ordering another high end vps with them. Contacted their live chat , they help me a lot in support and finally i placed ordered with them.
I should say that the vps speeds are awesome and in 100mbps port I get download speed of 80mbps where i get 10mbps in other providers of same 100mbps port.
There is a little confusion in your words. As on 100 Mbit Port, you should get 12.5 MBPS of Speed (according to 100 Mbit / 8 = 12.5 MBPS). So, around 10 MBPS is that you are paying for. But, if you are luckily provisioned on a 1 Gbit Ported Node, then you should get 125 MBPS of Speed (according to 1000 Mbit / 8 = 125 MBPS). So, here you are getting 80 MBPS. I was lucky in 2 of my VPS and got 1 Gbit Port Connectivity so I get there 40-60 MBPS and sometime 100+ MBPS. But, on other VPS at LA, I got 100 Mbit Port and that’s why always get around 10 MBPS. I hope this can make you clear.
Thats what i belive too. But they said i am on 100mbps port. But i get download speed of 80mbps.
These are the results http://prntscr.com/uhkw6
But i am not going to stay with them as they are turning of my vps as i am getting more visitors to my site. Which cause many concurrent access.
And they said that they won’t allow more than 1500 connection per ip but i get more than 7000+ .
So they turned off two of my nodes and I got dedicated with another provider and I am good now.
If you have big site which gets more visits then dont have vps with them as they will urge you to get dedicated server.
And i am with them just for 2 days and am going to ask for refund. If they are good they will do.
If you have paid via PayPal, then they may not refund. However, you are lucky that they said you 1500 connection per IP. But, when they turned off my VPS, they told me 900 per IP. But, as far I checked the log, it was only about 500. :(
So this is how they treating with every one. I had 3$ vps with 123systems.net and they are good and they allow as many connection and they have never done such things. I must stay with them. But i feel for migrating to urpad.net
Never ever am going to use urpad again and won’t recommend them to any one.
This is how they claiming http://prntscr.com/uib8d
I knew it because they won’t give you refunds. They have a hosting brand named “K-Disk.net”. Once I bought their hosting and there was written of unconditional 30 Days Refund Policy. But, I hadn’t been given that. Bcz, 2CO charges them $10 for refunds. So, how can they make refund ?? But, they should give this. They sells at very cheap price but with their large area of restrictions, we can’t use it properly. Can you give anu email id to contact with you, Siddharth ?? Mine is support@ehostlab.com
~~~~（>_<)~~~~ . Most of my website traffic is from Asian customers. Don't know why recent tracert often timed out……
Which location are you setup in? Have you submitted a ticket?
Sometimes good, sometimes bad. Not very stable.I am not submit a ticket. Because. recently was stable. O(∩_∩)O~
BE CAREFULL. THIS GUY IS A SCAMMER. There is no instructions on how to make the FTP work, and IT DOESNT works. So you end without being able to upload files. And guess what? If you ask about the question, he answers that this is a “unmanaged host, no support”.
NICE SCAMM. Stay away from this loser.
Mont Mor. It’s a VPS. If you want ftp you set it up yourself on the server that YOU manage. If you want pre enabled ftp then you don’t want a VPS – you need to buy hosting.
Aaron i wouldn’t worry to much about Mont mor, why? you may ask, because Mont mor doesnt know how to set up ftp! That’s why. On top of not knowing how to set up ftp, Mont mor also doesn’t know how to use a search engine to look up how to set up an ftp.
In other words…. Mont mor is a loser who flunked out of school, as nothing better to do with his time other than slander a company which put Mont mor in his/her place.
Grow up Mont mor, and if you’re already a grown up.. get a life.
Ha ha ha. I think someome will pay you some bucks to stay him from LEB.
I can set you a FTP server up if you can’t do it yourself it’s just a matter of 5 mins ^^
LOL @ This guy. This is what he sent us in a ticket:
“Sure,
So you are a tipical scammer, eh? There are not any instructions on FTP, and it doesnt work. So I cannot use anything.
Nice scamm.
How is that? To be a so low fucking assole to livre from tiny roberies?
Just put your mother in the street corner, you son of a bitch. Maybe you’ll make more money.
Drop dead. Loser.”
In hindsight, I should of TERMINATED you immediately. But I’m a nice guy. I understand that you obviously are in over your head, and that an unmanaged service is not for you. I kindly responded to your RUDE and abusive ticket with a very kind, sensible response:
“Hi there,
Please keep in mind that you have signed up for an UN-managed VPS, not a managed VPS. You can connect using Filezilla using your server IP address as the host, and your root details as the username/password. Please use port 22 to connect via sFTP. Since you have subscribed to an unmanaged VPS plan, it should be understood that the best we can do for you with requests like this is point you in the right direction. The documentation on Linux virtual servers are very detailed, with many resources available to those who may not be familiar with Linux VPSes, but who are willing to learn. Google is your best friend when it comes to learning how to manage a Linux VPS.
If you do not change your attitude, we will terminate you immediately. We are not a ‘scam’, we provide services to thousands of very happy customers. Please be more respectful when communicating with our support staff. If you would like a free VPS control panel to help you manage your VPS, then we will be happy to offer you a free install of either Kloxo, Webmin, or zPanel so that you may more easily operate your VPS.
All the best,”
The offer still stands for us to install a control panel for you. But if you have any crazy outburst again, you’re gone. We love our customers, but not when they act like how you were acting. Sorry. Though you’re still an active client and have been given a second chance to act like a decent human being. I’m more than happy to assist you the best I can and point you in the proper direction of being setup.
Lmao!
lol nice
Those people are fun imo ^^
I have seen this type of user for the first time ever ! A Big LOL for him :P
Dear wannabe hoster…
FACT IS: The IP you rent to me, DOES NOT WORK: 198.23.246.132
NOT FOR PUTTY…. AND DOES NOT EVEN ANSWER FOR PING…
So, YES, or YOU ARE A SCAMMER, OR A TOTAL INCOMPETENT.
AND BTW, YES, I WANT MY MONEY BACK…
AND DROP DEAD
ssh root@198.23.246.132
The authenticity of host ‘198.23.246.132 (198.23.246.132)’ can’t be established.
RSA key fingerprint is 23:9d:60:d8:2c:2c:32:42:20:7e:38:c0:c0:83:44:6c.
Are you sure you want to continue connecting (yes/no)?
It’s working here. I believe you have been updated via ticket as well.
With all do respect, I think you should seek anger management.
Yeah, sometime I also have this problem. It’s your Local ISP’s Internet Connection’s problem as of me.
OK,
FINALLY IS WORKING!
ONE POINT: I WONT NEED ANGER MANAGEMENT IF NOBODY GETS ME ANGRY.
SECOND POINT: YOUR KLOXO IS INSTALLING BOTH BIND + TINYDPS AND THEY ARE IN CONFLICT. MY DNS (NAMED) ONLY WORKED WHEN I MANUALLY UNINSTALLED TINYDPS. THATS IT.
I’m glad to hear your issue resolved.
None of the plans makes any mention of CPU allocation. How much CPU are we getting? Does the 2GB plan offer a larger fraction of the hardware CPU than the 256MB plan? What about the other plans on your web site?
Hi there, all plans include fair share use of 4 CPU cores. =]
Sold out on 256M plan ?
Do you plan to restock on east coast ?
We received many many orders of the 256MB plan and had to go ahead and stop the promotion. It was a very popular plan that we hope to offer again in the future.
Our East Coast locations have decent stock at this current time, our Buffalo location is almost out of stock however we just launched a brand new node in our new Florida location (Quadranet DC) so we will have stock there for atleast a week or so.
Thanks for your interest!
yeah, wow! I really like the look of the 2gb VM deal but a few issues!
Firstly, the test IP on the page form for ordering is wrong for LA, I had toe mail support and they gave me 98.143.159.202.
I live in Australia, but VM’s here are exe ++ so need something west coast. Looking at their LA POP. I started pinging this and doing a few trace routes from a few locations…..
Pings worked from all locations, come back 5minutes later
No pings work, then some pings work (I am testing from 3 ISPs here to see results and traceroutes).
Right now, 2x pings work from Optus and Telstra but another one from Exetel (Local ISPs) do not work.
I have hit up their suppor again but not a good look!
The one that is failing, seems to stop in NZ

worked out this was all internet based routing and networking, nothing to do with the provider its self.. some issues in NZ, etc.
Hello,
You offer look very interesting. I want to use it as a VPN, but can I use iptables to forward all the data from my vpn network to “outside”?
The kernel has iptables modules enabled?

Snapped one of these up a couple of months ago and have been using it mainly as a PPTP server with a Mikrotik RouterBoard connected to it. Network speed and uptime are outstanding, reinstalls are instant on the SSD disk. At $12/year, this is without doubt the best LEB I have ever had.

Hi, I ordered one of these servers a while ago, very quick set up, happy enough with the performance.
However, I have a number of concerns relating to security:
My chosen passwords were emailed back to me in plain text!!!!
Fair enough, according to the header the mail was sent TLS encrypted and should therefore be safe in transit, but I don’t really want my mail hoster reading my system passwords :S
So I had to change them straight away.
There appears to be a problem with certain subdomains on urpad.net which mean the urls default to insecure. If I edit them to include a https at the beginning the code in the page seems to override this and the page ends up insecure. I’m not sure yet if the credentials are transmitted clear but sensitive personal data ends up being transmitted in clear text in the client area pages.
As it stands I can’t really be confident about using this VPS for anything I need to be fairly secure.
Hopefully these issues can be addressed satisfactorily…
After contacting urpad support this was all resolved quickly and satisfactorily!!
Thanks to all for getting this fixed.
As I said before I was very happy with the speed of provision and the performance of the VPS – now I can add that I am also very happy with the support provided.

Terrible sales support, been 5 days since i paid still no account setup…….
Just a quick update, finally have login details. Slow unstable wouldnt recommend….
I’ve tried at least four different providers advertised on this website in the last couple years. Two of them just quit without warning and I lost my money and data. Urpad, though, has been very stable for me. Since they have been around for five years I feel like I can trust them not to go out of business tomorrow. The uptime hasn’t been a problem and the speed is usually great. A few times when I have had a problem I opened a ticket and they were quick to respond and solve it. I plan to continue using them. They have my high recommendation.
