    @Virmach huh? my $0.25 Tokyo VPS just got activated! I was fully expecting it to be cancelled based on the previous comments made about the $0.25 pending vps's.

    I activated a few since there was space.

    Interesting, I noticed that one of my pending servers from the Flash Sale has its name changed, being suffixed with '-CREATING', namely 'FLASH-SALE-CREATING'. Am I marked fraud while the one would be eventually provisioned? :P

    It means it broke.

  • Oh by the way I finally implemented support levels. It'll replace the per-account premium support we've been selling. Take a look if you're interested and let me know what you think and any suggestions. It's not 100% implemented yet and I don't expect anyone to buy additional support but it's there.

    https://billing.virmach.com/index.php?rp=/store/account-support-level

    The highlight: $5 a month account-wide option to basically turn all your limited support plans to supported ones and break out of the limited/special support queue.

    I was also going to post a really long message about how we'll be handling support but I'll just hold off on that for now. Super short version of it is that we've been working through the pile of tickets in better categorized batches where possible. This is to ensure in the future we're not overwhelmed by influx of tickets from multiple account, spammy, and special-related tickets to try to keep providing more consistent support to our primary (regular plan) customers.

    I'll add that to the OP. Will you wander around and fix these automatically in time or do these require ticket.
    I've got one of these too the $7 LAX from Jan 3rd.

    Automatic. If it's NOT listed as CREATING then potential for having to create a ticket is higher than zero but still low.

    We just finished paying off our phone bill, we'd need to do at least 8 more flash sales before hiring.

    $5 is really nothing for me, just like $100
    But, maybe u dont understand this fun of mine, like we dont understand others, fun and sad, always both side of life, like flash sale for me, like linux, server, nodejs, k8s etc... maybe u really cannot to feel it like me.
    Like i sid before, money is really nothing, tech and the fun of it is the really important.

    Or, no offense, someone just like laugh at other one, couse in real life, they not that success so, that's a way cleanse them soul.

  • My $0.25 Tokyo VPS was refunded after 15 days of being in "pending" status, I read that it could be due to multiple accounts, but no, I only have a single account, unfortunately at the time of payment the VPN was on, and detected as fraud (I guess that's why). The order was still approved (Order #584282 Approved) and I cancelled the invoice. I was excited :(

    No. I expect that would cause more issues for you. I also expect that they broke on provisioning and now they have been put back in the queue to be provisioned again.

    Yes, emengweb#gmail.com is the main account, the first to respond to Merge Accounts, and It was merged, but other issues were not processed, the account was flagged, and it was not even possible to initiate a priority bill.
    About this i mentioned before after flash sale, but not get response, guess because there a lot thread and message in LES (Also Send message mentioned willing pay $15 for this Priority Support to get that 'Multiple Accounts [合併]' 640162 done. About affiliate and other, It has been stated in the ticket, waiting for your reply).

    Really don't want to miss this flash sale, I had to re-register new account. First time, the currency was wrongly selected as €, Alipay could not complete the payment, so I had to register another new account again. I apologize for these actions. If additional fees are incurred, I will willing to pay for it.

    A small request, complete the merger, restore the normal status of the account, and you will see a long-term loyal user as before.

    Sincerely thanks.

    Only if you don't know what you're doing, or if you're trying to break VirMach's rules and get caught.

    Low end servers are great, but people seem to buy them thinking they're going to get a full-priced product. They're delusional, it's not possible. They think there is such thing as a free lunch.

    For everyone else who understands the limitations of these products, they're a great deal and super useful.

    VirMach should keep doing everything required to make these products sustainable, especially by reducing support, which is irrelevant to VPS performance.

    Outside of billing issues, there should be no ability to create tickets at all, and all support should be here in the forum.

    You're obviously new in low end market, because there's so much of bullshit written above that I don't even know where to start answering.

    Yes, there around are lowend hosts who are actually decent in every possible way. Have you ever tryed something like Inceptionhosting? What about BuyVM? Prometeus? Ramnode? Not to mention all those superawesome hosts like Securedragon, Xenvz.co.uk, etc.. who served low end market with almost 100% uptime and performance for a decade if not more before they moved further.
    You want something really cool, for a low price and almost instant support response? There's greencloudvps for you. Heck even some Racknerd support usually answer within 5 minutes. But most of the time you don't even need to contact support because their infrastructure actually work from the moment you pay for it.
    And where do you see free lunch? Hosting business is not a charity. Someone earn for a living with selling their product to you.
    Another moronic thing you posted is that "all support should be here in the forum". In the forum? How old are you? You're in f.. business relationshipt with a host and forum should be the last resort to communicate with host regarding service issues. Are you really that dumb, or you only act that way?
    Most people here around don't need support per se, they just need from host to provide fully working infrastructure. How's their fault when host drop the ball here?
    I understand that people should have some reasonable expectations from low priced products however lets not act like paying customer don't deserve the product as advertised.

    +1. It's especially concerning that Virmach is posting another sale thread just two weeks after the last one, when there are still so many pending orders from the previous sale. How can they justify selling when they haven't even fulfilled the orders from the last sale? It shows a clear disregard.

    I understand that Virmach may not be making a profit from these low end boxes, but that should not excuse them from providing a bare minimum level of service. Customers are instructed to be patient, but when someone does ask for updates on the forum, there's a fear that their order will be cancelled or refunded and they'll be labeled as "MJJ." Support tickets are still unresolved after weeks or even months.

    I doubt that Lowendspirit forum moderators/Admin will allow any other seller the same freedom to post multiple sales threads without addressing the issues from previous sales.

  • I think virmach was able to create a new sales thread was because he was encouraged to create a new one at the beginning. The other one was never intended to be a sales thread (at least that's what I remember @FrankZ saying).

    That would be this thread, which got derailed a number of times, then split & renamed to suit.
