jpalmer: sent ya an email, not sure if you're still up...
hm

I noticed the bandwidth increased on some of the packages.  Is that also for existing customers?
awyeah: for a one time fee
you can upgrade to the new limits
open a support ticket about it
That doesn't sound right.
why not?
It's not like he's got to provision anything new for my VM.  And new customers getting that deal don't have to pay a fee.
It's not like I'm changing RAM, IP blocks or disk.
Although it's kind of a moot point, I don't even exceed the curernt 200GB limit..
vcs: how much is the one time fee?
the monthly price of your vm
i think
well wait hmmm
it was 20$ for me
i think...
And that was just to increase your monthly bandwidth limit? Not RAM or other resources?
yep
those are monthly charges
Ah well.
anyway, it's time for me to leave the office.  Later guys.
later
a one-time fee of $20 to PERMANENTLY double your bandwidth sounds very reasonable to me
i could have just said no ;)
up_the_irons: I would whole-heartedly support the ability to pay for my VPS via paypal :D
my credit card is poo
paypal is a rip off
if you are seling something
there has to be a better way
paypal is also evil
vcs: i agree with you
there must be something better than paypa;
yeah i refuse to use paypal, they should be regulated as a bank
but they are not
its called "give me money and i'll get it taken care of" :D
what are the alternatives? Google Checkout, or somesuch?
google checkout but i dont think they hook into your bank account
they are just a proxy for credit cards i think
and other payment methods
ya, might as well just stick with the current credit card processor then
yep
you know, I'd even consider paying slightly more per month just to cover the paypal fees
paypal is a risk as a busines
they can suddenly just all the money from your account
and freeze it
yeah
without following normal banking regulations
up_the_irons: just want to thank you for the superb service you have provided, I will be cancelling my vps later but just wanted to take the opportunity to say thanks. its been really good :)
why cancel? just keep it around for emergencies!
nesta: no problem, glad you liked it :)
