Doubling the RAM of older VPS customers

Posted on April 10, 2013 by richard

We’ve been busy this year adding new server platforms to Network Presence and part of this has been to service our new (since Jan 2013) VPS Plans, and now we’re able to provide more VPS resources (RAM in this case) for the same prices to older VPS customers (being customers who signed up on our old website, or before 2013 when our new plans went online).

Accordingly, if you’ve had your VPS with us from before Jan 2013, we now offer a free doubling of your VPS RAM!

We need to do this in a staged manner as customers request, so if you’re on an older VPS Plan of ours (from before 2013), then please contact us to arrange for your VPS to get double its RAM.

We believe that this will provide customers on these older VPS Plans with at least the value or ‘bang per buck’ that newer customers have, and we appreciate our longterm customers, so this will give something back (a “Loyalty Bonus” if you will) for your longterm business with us.

FYI and regards,
Richard.
