Really disappointed by their auto-payment policy. Even my Auto-Renewal was off they charged full fee on resubscription and I had to pay tax on it too. The company is not taking responsibility and not refunding my FULL AMOUNT including tax.
I just want to know if a customer has an auto-renewal option off why do they initiate a payment? It's not my fault that tax and subscription fee is deducted from my account. I NEED MY FULL PAYMENT BACK!
I purchased hosting in January 2023. Migration was very quick. Hosting is fast (faster than two previous providers).
However, customer service sees you talking to numerous people as each reply is answered by another Hostinger employee and not all of them are as consistent or clued up as they might be.
The worst is the Finance Team and billing issues. Despite them agreeing the amount charged was incorrect they refused to refund the error. Instead, assuring me that it would be correct next time it was billed!
What was a good initial experience is now a bad one.
Be very careful about charges. Check and check again and take screenshots as Hostinger's Finance Team don't do refunds. Once they have your money its gone. I found out too late.
Hi, Jason,
Thank you for voicing your concerns. We treasure our customer's feedback, as your candidness is a valuable tool to our constant self-improvement process.
We aim to investigate this billing situation and clarify everything — for that, we invite you to write us more details on your account and the case via quality@hostinger.com. Count on us!

Cancelled service in three days after setting it up. Trial is backed by 30 days return policy.
Upon request by the hosting Co I sent required payment information (they cannot located it). Eventually Company found that I paid but apologizing once more and asking me to continue sending proofs but now to another email. Though cancellation email clearly advised what email to use for cancellation. What a mess!
Hello, Daniel,
Thank you for reaching out.
We've located your account and noticed it was GDPR-deleted under the owner's request. Following the privacy legislation, we don't retain your payment information in this case. For this reason, the Customer Success team indicated it's necessary to forward an official payment proof to gdpr@hostinger.com, so our specialized team can process this particular situation.
To ensure no questions will be left unanswered, we've dedicated a specialist to reach out. Let us know of any concerns — we're here to help.
Sincerely,
Gabriela
Absolutely appalling company, unable to migrate my website. I keep having massive issue like Too Many Redirects and had to keep pointing the Nameservers back to my old hosting which I had to extend to keep my website running. Every time you have an issue, theres a new agent dealing with it, its just a mess. It's been 3 months and they're declining my refund even though they're incompetent to move a single website, and when you ask for the refund they flat out ignore the question. I was with A2 for 8 years but the problems I have with Hostinger the past 3 months are unreal. If you respect your websites, look for another company.
Hello there,
Our team prizes transparent communication with our customers, so thanks for sharing your questions and concerns with us.
We're conducting an internal investigation into this situation, but please share any remaining important points with us via quality@hostinger.com. We'll be happy to hear you!

A big criminal scam done by these hostinger crooks. NOTICE. They ripped off all their customers, over and over again. AVOID IT.
Run away from Hostinger while you can
Firma Hostinger sold unlimited paid plans for several years, which in 2018 cut sharply and forced all customers to accept the cuts without complaint, pushing them towards alleged upgrades and abusive and dictatorial terms of service, all manipulated and cut at the will of accommodation. A big scam done by these hostinger crooks. The latest hack was the Websitebuilder included in the plans which has now been abducted and does not allow users to edit their websites. NOTICE. They ripped off all their customers over and over again. AVOID.

I paid for a domain registration and after the payment was made the domain wasn't registered and had "Reviewing" status. There wasn't any information about any kind of reviewing before I paid. I wrote to support and told to make a refund as I didn't want to wait for the completion of the review. Support told me they can make a refund only to my account balance because I paid via crypto. And I don't want it on my balance. It's my money and I want it where it came from - on my crypto wallet. So if you pay with crypto they just steal your money, they won't return it to your wallet if they refuse to provide you their services for some reason. Also they don't inform customers about domain names reviewing before customers make payments
Hello, Anais,
While it's heartbreaking to hear about your dissatisfaction, we thank you for sharing your voice. We aim to ensure everything's clear!
As a domain reseller, Hostinger must abide by the Registrar's (the organization that manages domains) rules, including our responsibility to monitor how our services are used. To learn more about this process, you can check our Domain Registrant Agreement (hostinger.com/domain-registrant-agreement).
Due to their volatile and transitory nature, refunds from payments made with cryptocurrency are only available to your Hoatinger Balance, as stated in our Refund Policy (hostinger.com/refund-policy). You also have the option of registering another.xyz domain with this value, so let our Customer Success Team know what's the best option for you, and we'll be happy to proceed with it.
All the best,
Team Hostinger
I had a terrible customer service experience with Hostinger. The customer service executive couldn't provide me with satisfactory answers, and when I asked for more details, they simply asked me to email them, saying their team would respond. I waited for six hours and still haven't received a reply.
Hello, Nishu,
We're sorry to hear about this, but thanks for sharing your thoughts with us. Be sure we'll forward your feedback to the responsible team.
All the best,
Gabriela
Be careful using this company, They can and do suspend your website for not updating your plugins as well as blocking parts of their site to you and in spite they put you on a slow server making it impossible to do anything. This week I've had 2 websites suffer this very issue. I'm off to another hosting company. Hottinger deactivated all my plugins and removed them from my site, making my site dead. And 2 days ago they suspended another one of my websites because my plugins were not getting updated automatically.
Would you really want to trust a company like that with your website?

Hostinger will take advantage of any vulnerabilities or errors in your installation by offering an upgrade as a solution (it isn't) instead of actually helping you resolve the issue. They are happy to take your money.

You guys are doing a great job with providing hosting services at lowest cost and keeping the serving going 24/7. Although I had some troubles with browser error 500 when I added two more websites to the hosting, I guess you get what you pay for. Fair enough I am satisfied with Hostinger and believe that there will be no compromise on the standard in future.
My business shared hosting plan used to perform better in beginning. I feel cheated that it is now under performing and my SEO is compromised because of server issues. Just another hosting company wanting customers to upgrade. Unfortunate

Very easy to set up and easy to upgrade hosting plan. Easy to navigate and understand what each options do even for beginner like me.
The only problem I had was when Hostinger upgraded their server in Singapore(which where I selected my server location). Other than that, its perfect. Never been down since. Uptime since 2021.

I am glad for using the "Hostinger" Premium Subscription since 2021. It helps me to do my passion with less investment.
Start-Up business with "Hostinger" is one of the best hosting platforms that I have experienced.
Its a very good platform, I have managed to create my wordpress website and its now live. It was so quick and easy to set up everything.
I'm also impressed that the database doesn't crush as it was with the other providers.
Do you have a live chat option in case there is a problem or an inquiry? I'm from Malawi (Africa) and I'm happy with the service so far.

Doesn't have a call centre. Cannot talk to any executive, only via Email, Explaining over Email becomes very difficult at times, so have to shift to other provider for support. Need a help desk where we can talk over call, explain they our issued & get the solution.
Hello, Marilyn,
In our experience, e-mail and live chat are the most efficient means of support — this way, we can share useful links, prints, and other important information.
However, thank you for your feedback! We're always working on improving; your suggestion is essential.
Warm regards,

There was ways great support provided by hostinger. The servers were also most of the stable. Only some times the servers make me awkward showing sudden errors and faults in usage meter. Other than that Hostinger provides a very good hosting service.

Zumry
The service is fine but I was really unimpressed when there was a trademark complaint made against my site that Hostenger took us down with no notice. Ideally they would have emailed us and given 24-48 hours to rectify the issue. Otherwise uptime has been great and cost is also great.
Dear Cosy,
As we're committed to the security of our customers and their data, we must take prompt action in cases of infraction of our Terms of Service.
However, thank you for your suggestion — we're always working on improving our internal services and processes.

Incredibly slow customer care response times to move out pre-existent domain meant we lost our domain www.rndlab.de which was in its remission period due to Hostinger staff not executing on the domain transfer in time. This has led to a massive shift internally and cost a tone of time & energy.

Thank you for bringing this up – the experience you had is not at all up to the standard of service we want to provide to our customers.
Our team will investigate the situation you described — we're keen to improve our services, and your feedback is vital in this process.
