Deal / Special Offer / Discounted Pricing
There are no known special pricing plans available for the moment.
Free Trial
Unfortunately, they do not offer a free trial, so you won’t know what kind of service is waiting for you unless you pay the price for the first month.
Plan / Price Offerings
They have three pricing plans which are listed below:
- 30 Day recurring which costs $8.95 for the first month and it is automatically re-billed every 30 days. But, the user should be aware of the fact that the price goes up after this first month; it rises up to $14.95.
- The semi-annual which costs $99.95 and by choosing this package, the user could save 33% off his or her money since, while divided by six, the user will pay $16.66 monthly
- The annual costs $159.95 and by choosing this package, the user could save 44% off his or her money since it equals $13.33 per month
Connection Speeds / Server Locations
We have not tested connection speeds of Alibis but according to other reviews, the speed is okay. The Usenet provider’s location is only within the US.
Technical Notes
Alibis offer a free SSL encryption for all their users’ accounts. The manipulation of the thumbnails is performed through the free web-based thumbnail interface.
Quality of Service
Their service has not been tested by us, but based on testimonials of users, the service is standard.
Customer Service
They claim to provide a 24/7 customer support, but it’s only available through email with a response time between 24-48 hours.
Conclusion
At $15 a month and 450 days of binary retention, we can’t recommend Alibis – you will find much better choices in our Best Usenet Providers list.
