Constantly having issues with server connections

Hi,

I'm not the biggest tech guy but can solve most of my problems with AI help, but recently I've just hit a concrete wall, my first problem was when I once tried to import products from one site to another (both on hostinger), after hours of troubleshooting the CSV file I was unable to import the pictures with the media links to the other site, Gemini said that potentially the problem was that hostingers server is blocking incoming traffic as a security feature, I was unable to resolve this issue. Now my newest problem is that I'm trying to connect it with Apollo (automatic email sending app) and trying to log in with an IMAP account, I give it all the things that my email says for IMAP and SMTP hosts and I just get the error: Unable to get a response from the IMAP server.

I'm constantly having problems with anything that is trying to connect to the servers, Is it my own incompetence or can I change it somewhere, because it really seems like the server just shuts down ANYTHING trying to connect to it.

Does Hostinger defrauding us by purpose? $96 become $165 at checkout.

Is Hostinger defrauding us by purpose? .. Advertized 2,533,680VND incl tax (= $96) become $165 at checkout and discounts are shown but not deducted... Located in Vietnam and paying with a Vietnamese bank card but still asked to pay in USD.

In short:
1)  2,533,680VND become $165 at checkout, when it is actually $96. Hoping one would not notice.

2) Discount is not subtracted

My hostinger bad experience

I am a long time user of hostinger for 6 years. Lately this 2026 I started receiving website ban after I renew my website 2 month ago. I complain and hostinger said I should suck my d and fuck me. Please everyone do not use hostinger in 2026 and forward

Are there plans for Hostinger to rebuild/update their Hermes container image soon?

New to Hostinger, so I'm not sure what their schedule is like for this sort of thing. I have Hermes Agent running in a docker container on Hostinger VPS.

Are there plans for Hostinger to rebuild/update their Hermes container image soon?

A significant update was released which allows access to additional models (xAI grok via oauth) among other things. 
I'd like to be able to update my instance using Hostinger's published container image and install.

Is there even support?

I'm trying to cancel everything and get refund however there is no support at all just this AI shit? Whenever I try it sends me to "queue" which even if you wait 1 hour you never are able to talk to someone. I don't understand how a service/customer support can be this bad...

Does Hostinger really sucks that bad?

It seems like everyone here is complaining about Hostinger. I was planning on using Hostinger Horizon to create quick websites for clients. Should i go for it or use an alternative?

A RECORDS ARE BEING DEPRECATED!!!!!!!

Everyone needs to get in touch with support now about this decision, they are getting rid of a records which will be a nightmare for those with only one site on hosting but an even bigger one for developers! we have to make our voices heard before a full rollout happens, I saw the article yesterday and since then its been removed but they are still going ahead with the decision. for those like me who've been a hostinger customer for years we are all aware of the drastically raising costs and bad support but this decision is beyond reasonable and causes a load of work, if they want to change the a records they should do it for us if its so "simple"

It's shame no humans work there. It's run by some bot call Kodee

I was about to buy a new VPS but had a question about their Ubuntu version. It's listed as just 26.04 and not 26.04 LTS.

Kodee was talking crap so wanted to speak to a human.

I'm in a queue but have no confidence there is anyone behind it. It's been a long while....

I've got one VPS already and been happy with it.

Just a shame they don't invest in customer server. It wouldn't take a lot to improve this.

Can't access my website's backend, can't even access File Manager, please help!

So, when I got the hosting and domain, I created my website using Wordpress. It went well but it was redirecting me to a temporary url always, odd. I checked propagation and my domain had completed that step. I checked to see if my domain was connected to my hosting and sure it was. Despite all that, I was still being redirected to the temporary URL. I even edited the wordpress config file to direct me to the main domain but it wouldn't. So I deleted the website, hoping that the errors would reset when I installed wordpress again. So I did that and it kinda worked, kinda because after a few hours it was no longer opening the URL. Now I'm stuck, I don't know what to try anymore. I was hoping that you could help me out. Rignt now I can't access anything. I can't access the Wordpress admin dashboard, I can't access the File Manager, I'm literally locked out. I tried their AI chatbot Kodee, no help at all. Now I'm stuck in a queue and it doesn't seem like I'll be getting anyone anytime soon.

Hostinger web builder for beginner

Have been using Hostinger web builder for about 3 months and have 3 clients.

I build simple sites for local businesses to get them more bookings and it’s great.

I always see people suggesting to move to wix or webflow or Wordpress but I don’t see the point?

Anyone know if this is something I should consider please and why?

Horizon App Hosting- subdomains?

I have three projects I am working on using Horizons. Right now they are all on the temp domain but I was wondering the best way to have them hosted.

For example: if I have a domain could I host a different app on subdomain pages? So, test.com/planner; test.com/recipes….

Trying to avoid having to have separate domain names for them all if I can help it….

Thoughts?

My subscription ended today, here's a summary

It’s been a whole year, and my website never saw the light of day—it never even showed up on Google. I didn’t get a single client, and I couldn’t even finish my website because of all the errors from Horizons… One of the dumbest decisions I ever made was signing up for your platform, because it turned out to be extremely limited in its capabilities, and it lacks any tools to assist with development. The AI called “Horizons” was the dumbest I’ve ever encountered, not to mention how I felt scammed and defrauded by the way it drained the message quota used to execute commands directed at the AI.

Server Change Before 30 day Wait Period

I changed my server to Singapore instead of France. As a result the speed of my users which are far away in Africa is too slow. I admit I made a mistake but the 30 day wait will be too hurtful for my site users. Especially as this site is primarily for logged in user with uncached requests when logged in. Kindly assist.

Edit: Hostinger Human Support helped to move it

VPS silently null-routed repeatedly with ZERO customer notification — this needs to change

I've been dealing with a recurring issue where my VPS becomes completely unreachable from the outside world. After extensive troubleshooting, I confirmed the server itself is perfectly healthy — Apache running, MySQL up, memory fine — but external traffic never reaches it.

The issue is Hostinger's automated systems silently null-routing VPS IPs when overload is detected, with absolutely no notification to the customer. No email. No SMS. No dashboard alert. Nothing.

My clients experience full downtime. I lose business. And I find out only when clients call me.

This is a systemic problem that needs to be addressed:

  1. Customers must be notified immediately when their IP is null-routed
  2. A self-service "restore network access" button should exist in hPanel
  3. Root cause explanation should be provided so customers can fix the underlying trigger

I shouldn't need to restore a full backup just to get my network access back. Hostinger, please fix this process. Other customers are likely suffering the same issue silently.
