“Professional web hosting service”

Carrol T.
10/27/20

They were a great credit to Hostplay web host and I can't thank him enough for getting my site back online so quickly. I haven't needed for much but when I did, they were there and this gave me great confidence for the future. They have good pricing for offshore vps solutions. Not only did their staff guide me through the web site process, but they also did so with patience, flexibility, and a sense of humor.

“SCAMMERS ARE OPERATING THIS COMPANY”

E H.
1/25/24

We have reported 2 fake websites that are currently hosted by this company and to our surprise they are still active. The scammers are impersonating our site in which they are using our logo and content to scam and steal sensitive information from people. Hostplay closed the tickets and the fake sites expresshigshop.com/ and westhighs.eu are still active and carrying out their scamming activities. HOSTPLAY IS OPERATED BY SCAMMERS THEMSELVES! BE AWARE. HostPlay is Owned and Operated by IWS Networks. They are scammers and work with scammers.

I believe that it will be useful for others if you share my personal experience using Hostplay hosting. I've been using the managed offshore server for not so long, but can say that I have had any downtime or outages. Everything works fine and I am 100% satisfied. I'll definitely continue using their hosting services if they go on providing such professional and stable hosting services.

I'm pretty satisfied with Hostplay offshore server hosting, but to be honest – I don't have much experience with other hosting providers, nor do I track my website uptime and speed. They are awesome. They have this awesome live chat and I have used it several times when I ran into snags that I just couldn't figure out on my own. They are always supremely helpful and patient.

Good Job, Hostplay team. The 1-click wordpress setup was easy and the videos have been so helpful to us in setting up our site! Thanks for the tutorials! P.S. I didn't give their support a rating since I haven't had to use them yet. I'll let you know if we need any help!

I've been with Hostplay dmca ignored hosting for 3 months now and I've got to say I'm impressed. They even paid for my domain name, and setup was within a few minutes of ordering. Excellent uptime, very responsive support and most importantly - great speed.

During the initial months of setting up my website, the customer support was very handy. Many thanks to Hostplay offshore semi-dedicated server hosting. As for the speed and network uptime, they are perfect. I'd like to say that this provider met my expectations and I'd like to thank them for providing me with good services.

I cannot say enough good things about Hostplay offshore hosting. As a webmaster + have some knowledge in designing I had problems with other local hosts so I decided a change was necessary. It has been a great dmca ignored hosting! Everything on the site is easy to understand and very user friendly.

The tech support and the hosting service has been excellent, even to the point of a courtesy e-mail to inquire if any help or advice can be given. HostPlay is an amazing offshore server hosting provider. Prompt replies are given to any queries and the use of live support over MSN is extremely helpful. Good job!

I appreciate that Hostplay offshore hosting has a no-contract model and their prices are very reasonable. Reliable, easy to manage, a good interface, has done a stirling job for my client for over a year now. As long as you know what you are doing, and understand how sites and domains work, you'll do fine.

I've never had a problem with Hostplay offshore VPS hosting. I just realized, today, that I should go online and give them a good review somewhere. I had a few problems when I first signed up (not with them, just with mistakes I made) and they were very willing to help me and explain things to me. Recommended.

Good Job! As for the pricing, can say it is competitive - they saved me a good sum of money during the time I deal with them. I have no hesitation recommending them. I am now in the process of moving all my sites to Hostplay offshore vps. Keep up the good work!

Nice selection of included scripts, CPanel, MySQL control panel, and many others that the high priced sites do not offer or support. Hostplay dmca ignored hosting is simply the best when it comes to web hosting, the pricing is fantastic and the customer support is top-notch. Thanks.

Well, it happened so that I signed up with Hostplay about several years ago, because I had a long nightmare period with another host and while dealing with this offshore semi-dedicated hosting, I immediately got to know that I had made the right choice.

I found HostPlay offshore host at web hosting discussion board about 6 months ago. I started using their ssd hosting services when I needed additional storage space for my stock photography site. All packages are excellent value for money and are backed by supreme uptime and speedy and knowledgeable customer service; whenever I have a problem - which is a rare to occur - or question, a live representative is generally online to help me out instantly.

Absolutely and totally impressed on all fronts. Great offshore hosting package and pricing, superb support and incredibly quick responses to any queries. If I could give Hostplay offshore hosting 11 out of 10 I would do so without hesitation. Many thanks!

Recently I have done a search on reliable VPS hosts in Bulgaria and found Hostplay. Their pricing looked quite ok for my budget and I decided to try them. Setup was fast after I've paid for their Linux vps hosting plan. Just a few lines to state that the support guys helped me retrieve passwords & data and he handled the problem very professionally. Problem solved in a few minutes, worked perfectly, thank you so much. Hostplay works pretty stable and enables to fulfill everything I need. Tools are working perfect, happy with it!

Having done a search on all web hosts with servers in Russia, I found Hostplay.com. I am 100% satisfied dealing with this decent web host. Their tech helped me sift through an issue explaining why my site was down. He worked with me on a resolution and I appreciate his service.
This is an A+ web hosting service! They provide excellent support and customer service and over all is just a great hosting provider! I 100% recommend this hosting provider as I have used many before this and hostplay definitely beat them all.

Hostplay is a good offshore web host, and I've recommended them to several people who now also use them and are impressed with their uptime and website speeds. The things which I like about them are:
- Unique offshore zones: Sweden, Russia, Bulgaria, Netherlands
- Helpful customer support (works 24/7 and always ready to help)
- Super fast speed connectivity (visitors of my sites are happy)
- Perfect network and server uptime
- Affordable feature-rich offshore hosting packages

Special requests have always come through quickly and gracefully. As long as they stick to their guns on not overselling their servers, I don't think I'll ever be looking for a new web host.
Will continue to use Hostplay for as long as physically possible.

It was very hard to me in comparing different web hosts offering vps hosting plans in offshore zones.
There were 5 web hosts and I decided to give Hostplay a try. Their offshore vps plans (linux) in Netherlands impressed me with the price, features, bonuses and discounts.
I paid via paypal and their support contacted me immediate and proposed me any help, so setup was very fast and my website was up and running. Now I am happy with their uptime and speed.
100% satisfied and highly recommend hostplay to those who are looking for reliable offshore hosting in Netherlands.
