    “I've been with Hosting Heroes for what seems like decades now. I've honestly never known real human support be so responsive, so fast and so… human. Five stars for a service that's never gone wrong, and support who are second to none when I mess up.”

    P Patrick Ward 5-star Trustpilot review

    “I've been with The Hosting Heroes since day one, having moved over when they were EZPZ, and I can honestly say they are amazing! Great pricing and the service is second to none — I can't recommend them highly enough.”

    M Matt Enfield 5-star Trustpilot review

    “I needed help updating my DNS settings and Paul sorted it out immediately — then checked in during the evening, on a Saturday, to make sure it was all working. Thanks — you are my heroes!”

    R Rob Holmes 5-star Trustpilot review

    S Swedworks 5-star Trustpilot review

  • Excellent technical support

    “Paul provided excellent technical support throughout, staying with us until our issue was fully resolved. It was refreshing to get ticket and live chat responses from knowledgeable technical staff who could actually diagnose and fix the problem.”

    C Chris F 5-star Trustpilot review

    B Bob Beck 5-star Trustpilot review

    A Anthony Morley 5-star Trustpilot review

    “Prompt attention — immediate, on a Sunday morning! — to a troublesome PHP update. I've used Hosting Heroes for many years and have always found their technical support first-class.”

    J John Ainslie 5-star Trustpilot review

    W Wendy Hearn 5-star Trustpilot review

  • I honestly can't fault them

    “Their customer service is incredible, and I've yet to encounter a problem they haven't solved. If you're after a reliable hosting provider and none of the big companies appeal, give Hosting Heroes a go. You won't regret it.”

    T Tecc 5-star Trustpilot review

  • Help whenever I need it

    “I used to build business websites professionally, but I'm now a few years into retirement and increasingly out of the loop. The guys at Hosting Heroes have helped me across the street every time I've needed it. Highly recommended.”

    A Andrew Wrigley 5-star Trustpilot review

  • First-class, five-star hosting

    “First-class, friendly support staff. They recently helped me transfer a client's hosting to my account — there was no downtime and everything came across perfectly. I wouldn't use anyone else to host my websites.”

    C Chris Furness 5-star Trustpilot review

  • First class through our migration

    “The guys at Hosting Heroes are first class — I wouldn't hesitate to recommend them. During the recent server migration they persevered with some very old websites that really needed to go to website heaven, and got them working. Thank you!”

    S Stewart 5-star Trustpilot review

  • Excellent service, again!

    “I had such good service today that I felt compelled to write again. They always solve any issue I have on the same day, usually within hours. It's nice to see that for some companies, customer service is not a thing of the past.”
