then today I got another invoice reminder



NB : this vps don't have any control panel if something goes wrong I must contact support via email to reboot my vps. They billing doesn't have menu to cancel VPS.

Every time I need to contact support I only can reach them via email only, no other way like create ticket support.



I left after 2 years

DBD has this issue and it's the reason we left them as well. Their network/hardware was great. Support was reasonable except for the fact it was done via email. Billing was atrocious.

The lack of a front end ticketing system is a bad business decision in my opinion.

Shame, they run great services and hardware.

Anyone know which software stack they are using that is failing like this?

indeed i have a server with DBD and that is exactly the reason I don't have more servers at DBD.. billing and email only support. But hardware and network are great

Its the 8th of April.

Did you ask for the service to be cancelled after the 5th?

Its really hard to judge whos right and who is wrong since theres no dates here other than the invoice. 

(not implying you are in the wrong_

I've tell them to cancel my server one month back, few day after I pay my next invoice.  Since they often forgot to reply ticket, maybe they miss that email

update : another email
