and it's with the free cart ? easy to buy ? very cheap ? ...

it would be a quite complicated solution just to order in ovh.

I'm in France. Do your cart work in France ? I don't believe.

if you are in UK, I don't care where do you buy your mobile
cart. Your mobile cart will work only in UK. So I know that
you can buy on ovh.co.uk

So a customer from SE won't be able to pay a dedicated server
in UK. That's all.

by SMS? as in short message service? provided by mobile phone companys?

if so any 1 an gain a UK sim card? O2 provide them free. You can purchase them from ebay.

Maybe adding somthing where you have to contact a UK Landline number and enter an a code sent via email into a call from OVH? Something like a 6 digit number we have to enter when asked?

You can order only on ovh.co.uk since you come from UK. Next week
all orders will be confirmed before payment with SMS. You will need
to get us your UK's SMS to order in ovh.co.uk (we have too much
hackers and customers coming from outside of UK, the same for the
FR, PL, DE, ES).

Anyway, all differences is given with the points.

But why UK doesn't want to use Euro ? It's so easy ...

Can't imagine each loyalty point is worth £4.50.
Each point is worth so much, and you get them credited into the loyalty point account in your manager. You can then use them to purchase OVH services. .com purchasers don't get any loyalty points at all. So overall, you both get the same for your money.

They won't allow the order from the .com if you're in the UK for the simple reason that the .co.uk is for UK people, and they will look at the address used. It it originates from the UK, they'll reject the order and you'll get an e-mail telling you to use the .co.uk.

I recently went to "kimsufi.com" and noticed the "Kimsufi 2008" package prices....


kimsufi.com = 23.91 (inc 19.6% VAT) Euros = ~18.92 British pounds
ovh.co.uk = 23.49 (inc 17.5% VAT) British pounds = ~29.68 Euros

Thats a ~£4.57 difference and kimsufi.com seems to allow me to order one (didn't go though the whole process but it knew who I was).

Anyone had any experiences of ordering one from kimsufi.com instead?
