If this is the case can you change it to Estimated or get rid of it. As that little box is the reason to everyones moaning.

could you tell me your order number, so we'll have a look?

we don't offer guaranteed delivery times. Most of the times it is very quick, but not so these first weeks with the server model.

I would suggest not to guarantee something to your customers that we don't guarantee to you, unless you implement it yourself (having your own pool of servers ready to deliver)

Takes me about the same period of time for failovers. looking forward to the loyalty thing where you get to rent an extra per month you have the server from the 4th onwards

Hi Dragon,

Thanks I do realise that the machine rental period is from when it was deployed, that I am happy about at least!

Whats not pleasing me is I had a customer lined up to use this hardware which would have lead to a few more machine orders, however, after the customers project being delayed 5 days by waiting on me - they have now moved on else where, so I have lost out on a potentially great contract for me.

So yup, a bit miffed!

Starting to get a bit annoyed with how long EVERYTHING seems to take at ovh.

I waited a week for the hardware even though I was amoungst the first to order, and here I am waiting again on IP's to bind to the machine. The machine is of no use to me if i don't have any addresses I can delploy VM's on - so here we are day 9 or 10 after paying for the machine and 9 or 10 days out of pocket, not to mention wasted time waiting on the hardware going online in the first place.



Sorry, just a bit miffed!
Might be worth checking the renewal dates, sure I saw a post on here stating that the period does not start until the machine is delivered.

I.e if you paid for 30days then your renewal is 30 days after the machine is provisioned NOT 30 days after you placed the order.

At least I'd hope that to be the case as otherwise we'd be paying OVH for a service that's not being provided.
