Ralph, from VPSSlim, has sent in two OpenVZ offers located in the Netherlands. Their pricing is in euros, so open to fluctuation. VPSSlim have been featured on LowEndBox four times before. We last listed VPSSlim in April of last year, when they had somewhat different offers (amongst which a yearly deal). These offers have a limited stock so they can be sure that both themselves and their existing clients don’t get “flooded” by new orders. Ralph informs us that VPSs will be provisioned instantly. IPv6 is available and more IPv6 addresses are available for free. This month is also Double Bandwidth Month, so everybody that orders during March will get their bandwidth doubled for free! Reviews on their last offer are really mixed – some good and some bad. If you currently have a service with them, let us know how you’re getting on!
The offers
VPS LITE
| VPS BASIC
|
The final price will be visible when you click ‘Checkout’.
VPSSlim accepts payments via PayPal, bank transfer, credit cards, cash-ticket, Click&Buy, DIRECTebanking/Sofortbanking, Giropay, iDeal, Maestro, Mister Cash, and BitCoin. Plenty of ways to send them your money, that is. They offer a a full 7 days money back guarantee and and provide a 99.99% Uptime guarantee. VPN is allowed for personal use only and TUN/TAP/PPP can be enabled via ticket. Adult hosting is also allowed. You can read their Terms of Service here.

Get over yourself!
骂人还不敢留个真名。。还一下子把十几亿人都骂了个遍，挺牛逼的。别以为会几句英语就了不起，别自以为是，我今天就得用中文回复，弘扬中国文化。。中国人文明着呢。本来卖个VPS肯定有人觉得便宜有人觉得贵，多大点事。。。

Ah?What r u saying?
I was going to say to the OP that he was not very nice to complain about the price if he hasn’t bought one yet.
but then I saw your racist comment, I want to say to you, don’t sell VPS, wank at home instead. Why? ‘casue I’m a fvcking rude Chinese.
The price is extremely high for the horrible performance,poor uptime, and extremely oversold nodes, many of us experienced when we made the mistake of trying their past offers. I had several VPS’s from them in the past (August 2012-March 2013) and the experience was a nightmare. I would suggest reading these threads and searching for reviews on VPSSlim before wasting your money on this offer. The comments are almost all negative.
low end talk thread: http://lowendtalk.com/discussion/9742/stay-away-from-vpsslim-hostslim
comments on their last low end box offer: http://lowendbox.com/blog/vpsslim-e39year-1024mb-openvz-vps-in-the-netherlands/
I would also like to point out that VPSSlim (HostSlim) is suspended from WebHostingTalk:

Hello DomainBop,
You have made your opinion clear the last year in several posts. You have nod had a VPS with us for the last year so you can certainly not talk about the service at this point as there have been major improvements.
Also I would like to point out that our account is “temporarily suspended (for a few days)” and this is being discussed with the WHT leader, and are still in discussion with. This has nothing to do with our credibility or service.
Feel free to contact us if you want to try out our service again and we’ll make sure you’ll receive a test VPS to give you a way better experience then you are saying you’ve had. So feel free to contact us to check out the service.
I agree with DomainBop
Was using their last promotional offer, it was almost impossible to use the VPS for more than 2 days without the server being unreachable.
Performances were very low in terms of disk speed & bandwidth, so yeah most probably oversold .
Opening tickets always ended up in very elusive answers.
The worst part? When I sent my cancellation request. They’ve sent me like 4 or 5 emails asking me to pay, saying it was the last warning before they would charge some extra money collection fee blablabla…pure bullshit, very unprofessional service.
If you want .nl, there are way better, reliable offers.
– VPSSlim oversell nodes to the extension that I wasn’t able to use even 15% of paid hardisk capacity – risk of data corruption. Twice.
– TUN/TAP is down after every host node reboot without possibility to enable it from SolusVM.
– The worst part is their standard “we will take a look at it” or “we are very busy” support response which never bring solution and it’s needed to struggle in average 3 – 4 weeks to get the simplest things done.
– As positive thing I need to mention decent network, decent bandwidth for a price, decent hardisk quota (under condition that you can actually use it on oversold nodes) and also uptime isn’t so bad.
Totally agree. I got one for 1 year!!! (Yes, worst money waste ever) and I coulnd’t use it for a single day. I sent tickets every day and nothing changed. It worked better for 10-20 minutes and afterwards it was again impossible to use.
By the way, I also got harrased to pay my cancelled server (LOL) and threatened me about some lawsuit shit.
i don’t know who you are,I do not know why you are so stuck-up !
It’s unwise for you to say that.
< racist comment removed >
The second looks tempting, but why are the OS options years out of date? Ubuntu 10.10 was released a little under four years ago. We’re currently on 13.10
Hi Camaban,
The list is out of date indeed. We will update that today. We have the newest OS templates, so do not worry.
Thank you for your interest.
< racist comment removed >
I just want to reply in Chinese:)

Racist comments removed and you’re banned from LowEndTalk.com.
UPDATE on the offer: March is the double bandwidth month. When ordering in March your VPS BW will be doubled for free! (lifetime).
We have contacted Maarten Kossen to add this to the original post.
can i use this vps to private torrent?
Hi,
As long as you’re not seeding to the public, which is not allowed, then it should be OK.
They told me that I could use Torrent if it was legal. After 2 days they shutdown my server due to excesive usage of CPU/IO and told me that I couldnt use Torrent.
Just LoL
Yes at the moment you’re causing problems for other users (i.e. we receive complaints) then it’s a whole different story. There are clients using their VPS for private torrenting without any disturbance for other clients.
wow i cannot believe lowenbox keeps advertising this rip off merchant
and i bet a million pounds ralphs still there with his shitty support replies ive never been to a place that suspends your nodes like there having a cup of tea and a cake regualar as clockwork
the worse provider by far beside budgetvm and imaxhosting
Totally agree. I dont know why this provider is not banned from LEB. If you are going to get any vps from them, just send me the money, it’ll be worth.
David,
Please e-mail us your client e-mail address so we can check into the problem for you. No current problems are known here so I assume you’re talking about something that happened a year ago.
Also e-mail us your invoice # so we can check that as well. Probably you didn’t cancel your service properly, which caused a renewal invoice.
What is Node Specification?
Hello Nagib,
Thank you for your message. The standard configurations are:
Intel XEON E3 CPU (8+cores)
32GB RAM
RAID-10 storage
1Gbit uplink per VPS@10Gbit/s per node
@Ray: We have now, as you can see, set a stock limit for the sales to make sure issues like you’ve had won’t happen again. Back then when you ordered we’ve had an flood of orders from LEB which we did not expect back then. Of course we’re sorry for the troubles you’ve had and we hope you still have the VPS, or want to try our service again.
I just have to say : STAY AWAY .
1. Very bad or Bad service depending on the node you will find yourself.
2. They actually modify the price on second year keeping only their discount unchanged.
They do auto renew your subscription on a higher price (25% higher on my case) and threaten you with their founds collector if you don’t pay while they are suspending your VPS.
Hello Patrick,
We do not increase pricing. It might have to do you being within the EU and other TAX rating. I want to point out that we do not change prices when ordering with any promotion code or without any.
Please don’t blame EU TAX ;) it is just you billing clients .
No we do not bill our clients differently. You pay what you initially signed up for (with or without promotion code). We did not raise prices at all.
If you’ve found otherwise then please open a ticket and we will look into it right away.
Well, this is one of the numerous very nice emails that i had after cancellation of this 12 euros package http://lowendbox.com/blog/vpsslim-e12year-16year-128mb-openvz-vps-in-netherlands/ which changed price to 14.52 euros after 1 year as you can see below :
“YOUR INVOICE IS OVERDUE! PLEASE PAY A.S.A.P. TO AVOID COSTS INCREASE
IF YOUR PAYMENT IS NOT RECEIVED WITHIN 3 DAYS YOUR PRODUCT WILL BE SUSPENDED AND AN RE-ACTIVATION FEE WILL BE APPLIED.
This is a billing notice that your invoice no. XXXXXXX which was generated on XX/12/2013 is now overdue.
Your payment method is: PayPal
Invoice: XXXXXXX
Balance Due: € 14.52 EUR
Due Date: XX/01/2014”
Can i see the benchmark of your VPS ?
A client of us did make them a while ago. We do not have it ready here for you right now but will post the link.
If you click on the order link and then “checkout” the promotion price will appear.
@UPSTAGE
Login to your client account and then click on cancel service. That way your product is cancelled properly and you will not receive any invoice e-mails.
I saw many complaints for the services and performance you used on the past..
I am a HostSlim/VpsSlim’s customer who reached 1 year of subscription..
I do not deny that their vps’ performance are sucks. But that was in the past..
Im not stopping paying for their vps because I think anyone deserve second chance.
Now I am happy with them.. All my vps had no downtime except Im rebooting it myself.
Their network are good and Im a man among those who torenting on their server.. No problem. No abuse warning..
Now, I am happy with their services and performance. Even their support are fast.
I have 3 vps with them and no problem until now..
Maybe all of you should start trying their vps and stop blaming them for their mistakes on the past.
OR, maybe I am the only one who got good vps and good suppport.
Hello GM,
Thank you very much for your kind words. Glad to see you’re satisfied, which is our highest priority.
Thank you for being our client and hopefully for many years to come.
Regards,
I’m one of those who bought an offer a year ago.
And I just added another year. Why/Experiences:
In the beginning it was hell and I thought more than once about leaving. But I was patient and it seems Ralph didn’t lie when he told me that they had some problems they were working hard to solve.
Meanwhile I had one of my dns and a (low volume) mail server running a year and except for the first month or so it worked so so. I wouldn’t consider VpsSlim high end but neither are they lousy.
At the end of last year I got seriously ill and couldn’t take care of anything. In fact I even “slept” over the end of my subscription. When I tried yesterday to contact both of my providers, VpsSlim and Prometeus I made another valuable experience.
Both had deactivated my vps but
– Ralph from VpsSlim made it easy for me to get my server back online. NO data loss at all! After a very short discussion he even agreed to let me have my good conditions and the good price.
Short version: Positive experience, good service, server up again in minutes, me happy.
– prometeus seem to not care shit about their customers. Both yesterday and today they dropped their pencils at around 16:30 sharp. All I could achieve was to at least be recognized as a customer and at least to get access to the client interface to place a new order.
Short version: Extremely negative experience, bad service (9-5 service is just not acceptable in 21st century internet), ALL DATA LOST
Don’t get me wrong, prometeus has nice servers, nice network, nicely humming along and fast. But I don’t need a provider shitting on me, leaving me alone, playing catch-me.
VpsSlim has exceptionally nice connectivity but the servers seem to have hiccups sometimes. But I could reach Ralph almost always and I usually got a constructive response very quickly.
In that business very every Joe with 10k$ can open a highly automated business, nice servers and nice connectivity are common place. For me the difference is in service and here VpsSlim clearly wins.
As I’m anyway just in a phase of looking at my IT/network stuff, I’ll have a closer look at VpsSlim performance and reliability. And I’ll report back.
But again, I won’t forget how quickly and without any discussions or stupid games Ralph got me setup again.
Thank you for that Ralph
@prometeus
I may be just an unimportant single customer. But so are, I guess 90% of your customers. And you played stupid games with me and fu**ed me. No matter how nice your servers, if you leave your customers in the cold and instead concentrate on creating new companies you won’t last.
Hello Mr Pragma,
Thank you very much for sharing your experience. We’re very glad we could welcome you back/re-activate your service for you.
If you have any questions, you know how to reach us.
Regards,
Signed up with them. Had some initial issues with the configuration, but support has been rapid and service has worked well.
Hi Camaban,
Thank you. Glad to hear you like your service.
New nodes have been added to this promo. A new stock of 25 each (per offer) is applied.
Is there still available spots right now?
Hi Pycodr,
Yes there is. We hope to see your order soon!
lol suckas shit im doing 90 gig ram 600gig hd spcae 90 cores $5 year anyone interested lol
the os templates need updating and I did not get any IPv6 addresses other than that im happy
Hi Bush,
Thank you for your order! Have you already opened a ticket?
yes I opened a ticket, I’m just waiting for a reply
Ok. We’ll be with you shortly.
Getting an ipv6 address is an impossible task. The chat guy told me to open a ticket, the ticket guy told me to do it myself in the panel, but there is no option for me to do so. Ticket closed by ticket guy and that’s it.
Average response of the ssh session, slow on a good day, frustrating to use interactively on the other, that is: when the VPS was online.
Server is unreachable since 12 hours, Status Offline in control pannel, chat people are of line, Control Pannel slow as molasses IF it works at all. No email or any notification as to why. Reboot, Shutdown, Boot and reinstall do not help.
Besides some dodgy VPS services on a shoestring, I’ve not seen anything as bad as this [and I am a serial VPS renter. Got about 5 from different vendors at all times].
Paid for a year, so I am afraid this is going to be a long threat…
Hi Papapatat,
First of all we would like to say sorry for the troubles you apparently had with your VPS and the IPv6 setup.
Can you provide us with a ticket ID (or if you’d like you can PM us your ticket ID) and we would be happy to look into it for you and have your issues solved within a few hours/soon after receiving your ticket ID.
Again we’re very sorry for the troubles you had as displayed and will do everything in our power to make the prepaid year a well spent year for you.
My comment here was not to draw additional support. I was giving my experience to inform potential other customers. Now that the VPS is available again, I will make a new ticket.
Ok. We will await your ticket.
Update: New stock has been applied over the weekend.
Can i use your vps to provide download direct link? or xdcc?
Hi,
You mean IRC? What kind of downloads?
yes i mean XDCC in IRC,
As long as the material isn’t illegal and it is not causing problems for other VPS users.
Update: New stock has been applied over the past few days. (25 of each available again).
