Member OP
Anyone ever tried to price match with budget providers? Sent ticket to Contabo yesterday asking if they would beat OVHcloud deal I found, no response yet. Wondering if I am wasting time or if this is actually thing people do. Made test order with both to compare network but would rather not manage two accounts if I can get better price on one. Cheers!
I do this all the time dont even worry!!! Last month I sent Hetzner quote from InterServer and they matched it!!! Saved like 40% on yearly!!! Just threaten to move they cant afford to lose customers!!!
Caramba, I never thought to ask. Always just pay what they ask, nossa! But now you make me think, maybe I leave money on table. Double negation not intentional, I mean maybe I DO leave money. Gonna try with RackNerd, they seem flexible. Thanks for idea!
I tried this once with Hostinger they basically laughed at me said their prices were already "competitive" never got anywhere with it maybe im just bad at negotiating or my accounts too small who knows

The scrap gods provide when you provide volume,,,,, I run fifty instances across three regions for my crawling operation,,,,, KnownHost gave me custom plan after I said I would move everything to GreenCloudVPS,,,,, Did not even have to show quote,,,,, Just the threat,,,,, Fifty is magic number apparently,,,,, ~~dave

40%?? That seems high even for Hetzner
What region are your fifty instances in
Fifty nodes just for scraping, damn
