20GB Webspace and 10 Domains for £1! Bargain?!

Just found this while scrolling through the net. Looks like a wicked offer and for only £1 I thought it was too good to be true but then realised they may be doing it to get in new customers.

Here's the offer:

http://www.drumnbass.info/dnb/news/promos/20gb-webspace-and-10-domains-for-1-pound.html

Or just go on their site https://www.drumnbass.info if you think the above link is for commision or something dodgy.

I signed up and for only a quid I saw no wrong as the site and everything is normal. Anyone else think this is a decent offer? Any other offers such as this? Im gonna sign up and not buy anything nor am I gonna continue with them after a year as it says after 1 year they are hoping you will subscribe paying full amount.

No catches or strings attached unless I missed something? Thought I'll share this on here and get some reviews. To me it looks like the deal of month or is it?

Regards,

    Maybe your domains are tied into their service so the domains are not in your name. Also £14.99 a month (£179.88 a year) for the top package after is probably a bit hefty. IMO always best to register a domain yourself and go for hosting separately, you will can always go for the cheapest domain registration site and cheapest hosting site and change over with no problems.

    I tend to use https://www.ukreg.com for domains.

    Surely, for the 1st year only, this is a bargain? Everything is all done from one company, less hassle and time involved.

    Has anyone ever signed up to similar offers such as this? Or even this particular offer?

    sounds like massive overselling to me - belongs as they have the resources, and enough income to get more servers, then maybe the company will stay afloat - but think about this.... a server can cost anything from £40 a month, and that would include a 40GB hard drive - and they just want to charge you less than 8p a month... they are either highly confident that their customers will not use the whole space up... or they are going to sell the company sometime, and by driving up the customers may drive up the value

    Hmmm... true, never thought of it that way actually. But either way, there's no negative effect on the customers, is there? If we sign up, we still get all of that for a quid.

    Is this the only offer around or are there similar ones? To me it looks like a wicked offer, terms & conditions don't seem to be fishy either. If anyone else could shed further light on this, would appreciate it.
