So easy to use

For someone with no prior knowledge and experience on website building, Hostinger makes it very simple.

With a little extra research on the side, I was able to make my website come together fairly easily. The website was created a little over a year ago, this time I just used the free domain as a redirect. It was also seamless to bring in my domain purchased from another platform and get the ball rolling.

I haven't used the extra services like the AI tools and such, since they cost extra for 'premium' features and isn't necessary for me.

Overall I'm pleased with Hostinger. Never noticed a time when my site was down or broken.

I love Hostinger

I love Hostinger, it's a cheaper version of Wix.

It's easy to use and maintain, the websites look great. It works very similarly to Wix, so if you love Wix but need a cheaper alternative, Hostinger is your go to! It is a little less developed compared to Wix, like Wix has a more developed background gradient tool, but nevertheless, Hostinger is great!

My only issue is that it has an ai platform that you can use and ai is using up all of our clean drinking water! We do not need ai!!

Hello Perry,

Thank you for sharing your thoughts — honest feedback like this helps us see where we need to do better.

Here's what's already in motion: a dedicated specialist has been assigned to your case and has sent you a follow-up email. When you have a moment, please check your inbox and reply

We'd also like to add some context on our support: the Hostinger AI agent is the first line of support, assisting you while human specialists oversee conversations in the background. When it says "a specialist from the team has personally reviewed your case," it means your question was genuinely escalated to a human, who reviewed it and shared their findings with the AI agent to pass on to you. And you can always request a human agent directly in the chat.

We hope to turn this around for you — if you have any questions, get back to us anytime!

Best regards,
Karolina from Hostinger

The company uses AI agents that make it difficult to receive a refund when you cancel. The human agents are good. Otherwise good company with good starter prices.

Hello there!

Thank you so much for the balanced feedback — we're glad to hear our human agents and starter prices left a good impression, and we appreciate you flagging where things felt harder than they should.

First, the good news: we can see that your latest refund request has been successfully refunded back to you, and our team has sent you a detailed follow-up email covering everything. If anything is still unclear, simply reply to that email — we're happy to walk you through it.

On the refund process itself: the Hostinger AI agent handles the first line of support so waiting times stay short, but human specialists oversee every conversation in the background — and you can always ask the AI agent to connect you with a human directly. No worries, your feedback on making cancellations smoother has been noted and shared with our team.

Best regards,

Hello there!

Thank you for sharing this — we can tell the experience left you frustrated, and we genuinely want to make things right.

A quick word on our support setup: the Hostinger AI agent handles the first line of support to keep waiting times short, but human specialists oversee every conversation in the background — and if you'd rather talk to a person, you can request a human agent directly in chat at any time.

That aside, we'd love to look into what happened in your case, but we couldn't locate your account with the details provided. That's why we've sent you a contact request — please get back to us once you have a moment, and we'll gladly review everything and do our best to turn this around for you.

Lina is an absolute life saver

Lina is an absolute life saver, fixed my issue so elegantly & professionally in less than 30 minutes while the ai bot kept telling me to wait 24 hours & try again. Really appreciate the support and a big thanks to Lina.

I’m from Nile IT company in US…

I’m from Nile IT company in US California our experience with Hostinger Horizons has left me feeling cheated. Its AI repeatedly claimed that problems were fully fixed when they were still there, consuming more paid credits as I kept trying to resolve the same issues—including administrator invitations.

I contacted live support and requested that the wasted credits be restored. Despite the conversation history documenting these attempts, my request remains unresolved. Follow-up emails asking for more information have not delivered a solution or restored my credits.

In my experience, the customer service falls well below what I have received from GoDaddy. AI can make mistakes, but charging customers for repeated unsuccessful fixes without a fair resolution feels neither honest nor transparent. Be careful: a “fixed” message does not mean the feature actually works.

Hello there!

Thank you for sharing your experience in such detail — feedback like this truly helps us improve.

We'd like to shed some light on how AI Builder Agentic mode works: the AI builds and edits your website based on the prompts it receives, and each request uses credits, regardless of the outcome. Because results depend heavily on how instructions are phrased, we recommend breaking requests into smaller, specific actions rather than combining everything into one prompt — this gives the AI clearer instructions and typically leads to better results. You can also switch to the manual editing tools available within your plan at any time to fine-tune things directly.

That said, we hear your concerns about the credits, and we can see that your case has already been escalated to our technical team for a thorough check. To fully investigate the situation, they need a few more details from you — please check your email inbox and get back to us once you have a moment. Your reply will help us move things forward as quickly as possible.

Best regards,
Karolina from Hostinger

Scam refunds

First of all, their AI system is horrible and stressful. I spent $180.90 on a premium bundle and only got refunded $100 something dollars. Such a scam and I never even got around to using it. I lost $43 due to a non refundable domain, ans the other $37 to who knows what.

Hello Matthew,

Thank you for your feedback. We're sorry to hear about your experience, but we really appreciate your honesty, as it helps us get better.

We hear your concerns about the refund amount, and we want to make sure everything is reviewed properly. Your case has been forwarded to our responsible billing team — they will carefully review your refund request, clarify the full breakdown, and get back to you soon. Please keep an eye on your email inbox for their follow-up.

Regarding our support flow: the Hostinger AI agent is the first line of support, but human specialists oversee conversations in the background, and you can always request to speak with a human agent directly in chat- you just need to tell the AI bot that a few times.

Best regards,

Started out horrible

Started out horrible, lack of support, limited abilities to create, however the recent updates and upgrades have made Hostinger more open to creative webdesign, and support is now instant via a very intuitive AI chat bot. What very few questions the agent couldn't answer live support was on in 2-3 minutes. The only drawback is the DNS control and the fact that Hostinger, like all hosts, own your domain name and you are just renting it, which i feel is unethical, but my real complaint is having to pay for email addresses at my domain, just further proof you are renting the domain name and hosting compaines will nickel and dime you. free email for a year then 25 bucks a month? For most people the entire reason for the domain name is the email address, so that's where you hit them the hardest.

Hello Ankit,

Thank you for sharing your experience — we understand that an unexpected charge is never pleasant, and we'd like to clear things up.

Our introductory prices include a significant promotional discount for the first billing period, after which services renew at the standard rate — both prices are shown at checkout before purchase, and renewal reminders are sent to your email ahead of time. We know it can still catch you off guard, especially if you have auto-renewal activated in your account, so if you'd prefer more control, auto-renewal can be disabled anytime in hPanel under the Billing section.

If you feel something isn't right with your renewal, please contact us via chat while you are logged in to your account, and our team will gladly review it with you. And to reassure you on support: the Hostinger AI agent is the first line of contact to minimize waiting times, but human specialists oversee every conversation in the background — simply ask the AI agent to connect you with a human at any point, and it will, you just might need to ask few times.

We're here 24/7 whenever you're ready!

Hello there!

Thanks for your feedback, and sorry for the worry — we know downtime is stressful.

We have good news: we've checked, and your website is currently working well and back online. Please clear your browser cache and take a look — and if you still encounter any issues, do get back to us so we can help right away.

Regarding support: we offer assistance via live chat and email rather than phone, as this allows our team to troubleshoot efficiently and share links, screenshots, and step-by-step instructions directly. The Hostinger AI agent is the first line of support, but that doesn't mean there's no human help — human specialists oversee conversations in the background to keep waiting times minimal, and you can request to speak with a human agent at any time directly in chat.

Best regards,

First

First, I want to start with what I disliked the most. Whenever a problem arises, it is immediately handled by an AI agent that is poorly configured and lacks the competence to resolve many issues. If a situation is even slightly non-standard, it starts giving canned responses that lead back to the very beginning of the issue—creating a loop where it just repeats the same answers. Furthermore, when you ask to be connected to a human, it aggressively tries to avoid doing so and stubbornly refuses to make the transfer. However, after several attempts, I finally managed to reach a human; the problem was then resolved quite quickly, and the consultation was perfectly normal and satisfactory.

5 websites still not restored, stuck with AI support and no human help

Update (October 6): After my complaint, most of the issues were resolved, and I appreciate that. However, two critical problems remain. First, all of my databases still appear completely empty; there are no tables in phpMyAdmin, so I have no data to work with at all. Second, one of my websites returns a 409 Conflict error and is not accessible anywhere. This site was hosted only on Hostinger, and it appears its installation could not be recovered. Nobody has responded to me about this. I am waiting for a clear explanation of whether my databases and this website can be restored from backups, and when. I will not change my rating until these issues are fixed. Ticket no: [22235020]

Hostinger is not upront about costs

Hostinger is not upront about costs. Expect many hidden price rises, misleading information from their Ai support and equally as unclear information from their human support (which feels like Ai) I initially thought Hostinger was good - hence the 2 stars. But the longer the relationship - the more I regret using them.

Response to Hostinger:
My hostinger account email is under a different email address to trust pilot.
You sent a form asking for my email and phone number but you have given me no opportunity to explain the specifics of the last 2 days - many hours of dismissive misinformation from your customer service. If you provide me with an email address and a reference number, I will happily forward on the conversations from my hostinger account email, which will allow you to review for yourself exactly what happened.

However for data protection purposes, I will not provide you with my email or phone number in a form through trust pilot.
