Cirtex Hosting looking suspicious

    I have recently signed up with Cirtex Hosting as a web host for a 1 month price of $4.99 ($2.50 with a coupon) and they have been really good :) But recently I was going to top up another month on my credit and saw that they had doubled their prices, instead of $4.99 per month it's now $8.99 :S What's going on? Why to hosts do this, it's hopeless....I need some cheap and reliable hosting and I get this bs!

    Once they get good amt of clients than hosting companies do this as many of the clients wont easily shift to other servers and will pay how much ever the company ask for

    Have you asked them about it? It may have be a mistake by them with their billing system. I've heard nothing but great things about them on various forums so obviously I am skeptical.

    You should contact their billing department.

    Check the company's TOS and policies regarding the change in prices and if they reserve all rights to the same then I guess you'll not be able to do anything about it but change to another webhost.

    I've heard good reviews about Cirtex on quite a few related forums. I think it must a mistake.

    Usually when a company decides to raise it's prices, the old clients keep the old prices

    not sure why did they take a different approach, maybe you should move to another host instead ;)

    Cirtex is pretty good hosting provider, I have been using it for many months. I had even read many client's review about cirtexhosting, but didn't found such price related negative review. Anyhow, I am satisfied with them.
