Free bandwidth grandfather question

Posted January 25, 2013 6.7k views
My account is supposed to be "grandfathered" according to the blog post. The post does not go into detail about the limitations of this. Is this account wide? Can i create and modify droplets and still receive free bandwidth? How can i verify i am actually grandfathered in properly?

It is account wide so all of your current and future droplets will not be charged for bandwidth. =]

Also, is there any chance for a suspended account (haven't gotted around to adding any funds yet :( ) to be grandfathered?

If you haven't received the Grandfathered email then your account was unfortunately not grandfathered but you can open up a support ticket and we'll review the account and see what we can do for you.

Thanks!

I dont get it. People expect to receive something other people got for pushing DO during beta phase. This is just hilarious.
