Guest franck~ Posted October 31, 2003 Share Posted October 31, 2003 It sounds too good to be true! Did you signed up? What's hidden? Don't you HAVE to pay after the 3 years? Thank you anyway for sharing! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest ryandelany Posted October 31, 2003 Share Posted October 31, 2003 I signed up for an account and I can confirm that there are absolutely no strings attached. You don't need to give them a credit card or anything. When the three years is up you can choose to roll over to a paid hosting account or you can just let it expire and your site gets deleted. This is basically a marketing push to try and sign up as many customers as possible before Jan 14. Regards, Ryan Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Mini Posted November 1, 2003 Share Posted November 1, 2003 Sadly the offer is only open to US or Canadian residents. :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Al Brookbanks Posted November 1, 2003 Share Posted November 1, 2003 Hi yes this is truely an amazing offer and I wondered how long it would be before it caught on. Go for it One & One are part of the fourth biggest ISP in Europe!! Where I work at http://www.kempt.co.uk we use them for all out clients including some big record lables. I think they are trying to break into the US/Canadian market and wow what a way to do it.... :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest frank Posted November 3, 2003 Share Posted November 3, 2003 I tried to sign up with them but the buggers need your US/CA phone number for an automated message. Bastards! :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
exiladler Posted November 4, 2003 Share Posted November 4, 2003 Franck, Brooky, I have an idea, can't we get some of our nice forum members in the US to 'adopt' us for this reason? All that we require is a small favour and them to act as mailbox and phone listener to establich access to the domain/site so we also benefit from a 3 year free hosting. So any US/Canadian who would like to adopt me in exchange for a small but tasteful christmas present (I thought it nice yet ironic to send some tea as they didn't like to pay tax on it some 200 years ago ) So any kind person who would do me that favour, please PM me to exchange e-mail details.
