Crucial / Notice PeriodHow does cancellation work at Netcup and what is the 31-day notice rule?

Under German contract law, Netcup subscriptions renew automatically unless formally cancelled at least 31 calendar days before the current term expires. Cancellations must be submitted through the Customer Control Panel (CCP at ccp.netcup.net) under "Products" → select server → "Cancellation" → "At end of term". Deleting or powering off your server inside the Server Control Panel (SCP) does NOT terminate the underlying legal contract. Pro tip: If you order a test server or a 12-month promotional plan, submit cancellation "At end of term" right after delivery — your server stays 100% active until the final paid day without renewal surprises.

Legal / CollectionWhat happens if invoices are left unpaid (German Mahnwesen & Inkasso)?

Netcup operates strictly within the German legal framework. If an invoice remains unpaid, a 1st warning (Mahnung) is issued after 7–10 days with reminder fees. If still unpaid, your instance is suspended (suspension fee approx. €20–€25). After 30–45 days, the debt is handed over to a collection agency (Creditreform or KSP Rechtsanwälte), significantly multiplying fees and impacting credit ratings (such as SCHUFA for EU residents). Never simply cancel your payment card; if you encounter difficulties, open a support ticket before the due date.

VerificationWhy is my order stuck in "Under Review" (In Prüfung)?

To prevent spam networks and credit card fraud, new customer orders (especially from outside Germany or paid via credit card) undergo manual review. The fraud-prevention department operates during German business hours (Mon–Fri 08:00–18:00 CET). Orders placed over the weekend are usually verified on Monday morning. To avoid delays: disable any VPN or proxy during signup (your IP must match your billing address country) and consider using prepayment or a verified PayPal account.
