GreenCloudVPS , Is it fair policy ?

hostkarhostkar Member

This is not a complete review. But as all the LET's including me loved @greencoludvps

But why the pricing policy like this ? is it fair ?

Here is the story. Then say your's comment as it's not fair to me.

I have got a VPS at 112$ for 3 years. (Same Renewal) (used 1 month)

It has a 112GB storage , but I need more.

I have contacted them, they are asking 392$ for another 112 GB.

We are LET's member after all, and isn't fair to me.

Not a complaints, but as we all love them so telling. This is genuinely a malpractice.

    No be happy because they could just say no
    Extra addons are not mandatory and are expensive

    You need to read their tos.

    SSD Storage Addons: $1.00 per 10 GB per month

    It's fair to me. If you need more, you shoud've bought a bigger plan. If I were to you, I'd transfer it, then buy the bigger one on the next promotion sales

    Out of curisosity, why did you tag two admin?

  • I won't call it malpractice.

    You bought the package. Anything that is outside the package, if provided, will come at a standard price.

    If they brake the standard price, then you have a case.

  • Why don't you buy 2 of them and merge into 1 large VPS?

    $3/10GB/mo in my cp and only available on one out of 7 servers so I guess its subject to availability.

    Would make it $336 I would certainly question the extra $56 but I guess that is not what are you are questioning you want another 112gb for less than $112 for 3 years right lol

    Only storage cost is more then 300X higher then the entire VPS cost which including everything isn't malpractice to you? Then you are rich.

    SSD Storage Addons: $1.00 per 10 GB per month ==> 112GB => more 11.2 USD/month ?

    => 403,2 USD for 36 months ?

    _If you buy a 5$/m VPS with 20-50GB storage then if they say 10GB/m for extra, that is Fair.
    _
    But when you buy 112GB for 3 Years at 112$ and only 112GB for 403$ then it is a Unfair thing.

    So what is the fair price then? if it was a promo deal then are you expecting promo prices to last whole year? Not sure what you are expecting here.

    It's provider pricing even if it 1K$ that's not thing me or you can change it, for me yes it's expensive as i pay 1€=100G per month

    But if the owner ( @NDTN edit remember the username )can do some price for LET it's okay then but if not then nothing is problem here

    Clearly, whether it’s the pricing for adding extra disk space to a VPS or the limit on how much you’re allowed to add, it’s essentially meant to discourage users—it’s telling you not to do it.

    As you are taking too personally to defend the provider. Check my previous reply. And the recurring price is also same. and a 3 year Term also there. and you are calculating your standard 10GB/m pricing.

    Don't argue with me , just think yourself.

    Telling you again the VPS Costs with 6CPU, 12GB RAM and 112 GB storage at 112$ for 3 Years

    and only storage costs you an EXTRA 403$ for 112GB ,

    is defiantly not a fair thing.

    Well That's another thing not related to what the op discuss here

    and can't compare between and disk performance in storage servers to ssd

    They should also only price their business services according to your budget right?

    Didn't say the requirement just that they were looking for more.

    I will not explain to any brainless peoples who just want to defend their loved provider.

    I just say, keep your love aside and check the math.

    Their service so they can price whatever but as a customer I can say it's a totally unfair pricing.

    Because 2 are difference things.

  • KodisKodis Member

    It's normal practice.

  • danninovdanninov Member

    Does the 112$ for 3 years is special/promotion rate?

    TL;DR:

    Hundreds of people that voted for them in TOP Provider last year are just idiots and hostkar knows better. They don't deserve it, strip it.

    Everyone telling him to check TOS he accepted are provider paid shills.
    Everyone telling him to stop doing math because you have no idea how and why provider priced that plan like this are provider friends.
    There are hundreds of provider friends here, only hostkar is not paid and he is the sane one.

    Spoiler

    Yet again and again he will come back to LET full of paid shills/provider friends and he will buy servers advertised here.
