Hi!

I have two questions for you:

1) Can I get Free RAM offer on Intel Pentium D 930?

2) I see you accept PayPal, which is good thing. However, what I want is quarterly payment option or 3 months payment option. Do you accept 3 months payment or just monthly paypal payment?

Regards,

We can only offer the free ram upgrade on the AMD 170, this offer does not apply to the Intel Pentium D 930.

You can prepay your bill if you would like to, we will hold those payments as a credit on your account which would be applied to future invoices. We do not offer discounts for pre payments of services.

If you have any other questions, feel free to contact us as sales@softlayer.com.

Thank you,

I've been with SL for exactly 3 hours now and I'm already impressed!

I was called to confirm my order less than 1 minute after placing it around 5:30pm EST. The server was available for use in about an hour including the free ram upgrade to 2gb.

Thanks!

Can this be used on the Opteron 175 plan?

My partner and I have been considering a move to you for some time now but have been hesitent because of the increase in cost from our present provider DedicatedNow.

I'm 'not' saying you are over-priced.. I think your offerings are truely excellent for the packages offered however, our finances have been a little tight lately and has prevented us from obtaining a server with you...

We are wanting the 'Opteron 175' or the 'Xeon 5050' plan plus some options and do need 2 Gigs of RAM on this server..

If you are able to span this offer onto one of the above plans, it will certainly seal the deal for us.

Thank you for considering

The free ram offer was recently expanded to include additional AMD servers. You can see all of the servers on special by going here: www.softlayer.com/featured_special.html.

The Xeon 5050 servers are not part of this new expanded offer.

If you you any questions email us at sales@softlayer.com.

Hello Steven,

After emailing Sales the response was that you collect payments on a month-to-month basis only. I would like to be able to prepay, upon sign-up, up to a year. The reason is practical: maximizing my expenses for tax purposes.

Please let me know if this is indeed feasible and what needs to be done upon signing up in order for me to prepay.

PM me your email address, I will work something out for you but I need some specific details better suited for a private conversation.
