They're already losing money for each $9.99/mo server they sell, and you want them to give you more?

if your not in North America, maybe you should try using international dialing sequence - ie. assume you were calling from Canada out to the world; 011, etc. etc.
Bet you it would work then0

tdc1: It's already been covered. You just type your phone number as if someone in your own country was calling you, with no spaces, dashes or anything else.

I ordered a server on 4/20 and received nothing, not even any correspondence.

Thread cleaned of all sales related posts, as this isn't the place for that.

This offer is bogus. I never received my server and had to resort to a paypal claim to get the money back. This whole $9.99 thing is a publicity stunt if you haven't figured it out by now. Yea they might have a couple of these boxes to rent out, but it's not for real guys. Move on...move on now.

Actually we have another 30 units ready to go. I'm not sure what happened FastServ, but by all means log a ticket and we would be happy to provision another one for you.

Well considering the damage hostmds did to the company they purchased (stripped all forms of support, etc.) I wouldnt trust them with a $1 server.
But as FastServ said this really seems to be a publicity stunt.
Best of luck to anyone who purchases, as always in this industry there will be those who are happy and those who are not. Hopefully hostmds doesnt cause more unhappy clients with these boxes.Regards,

I can attest that it is real. I have purchased one of these for a side project (It will be a Proof Of Concept I am working on). Keep in mind that I dont think they expected to have the increased surge of potential customers that this posting has caused. I do however hope that you get your issue resolved

Thanks for the input Keith. Yes they are for real and we have pallet loads of them if people want to order them in large quantities. No stunt.
Josh - if you have any issue - please feel free to call in and speak with one of our senior folks, they would be more than happy to address your issues.0

Seems too good to be true, however some people have posted above with no issues with them.
