Consolidation means my deal's dead

Been watching consolidation in this space. My $18/year plan has 90 days.

Tracking which brands might get absorbed. Post if you're on Hostinger infra or resellers.

What I've seen personally:

• Hostinger direct — renewal jumped, I moved
• Hostinger (different company, same DC lease) — still there
• Two unbranded resellers on AS204092 — one vanished, one doubled prices

No idea on timeline if anything happens. Historical pattern I've read about: new owner kills budget plans in 4-6 months.

Screenshot your terms now.

AS47583 is Hostinger's only announced origin. Looking at IRR, they have two downstreams not listed in the filing.

RPKI ROAs cover 204092:0:0/48 through /40. If CloudCone renumbers to their own AS, those ROAs become invalid unless updated. Check your VPs now if you rely on RPKI strict mode.

Transit pricing suggests Hostinger was buying blended at $0.45/Mbps. CloudCone runs their own fiber to Equinix LD8. Expect routing changes within 30 days, probably cold-potato.

BGP communities on 204092 currently tag regional origin. CloudCone strips all communities on ingress. You'll lose geofencing if you use that. Check https://bgp.tools for current community strings.

Right then, proper mess this is

We're Hostinger not Hostinger, but yeah same DC floor in Slough. Lease runs through March 2027, CloudCone owns the building now

Cheers lads for the heads up. We're already looking at HostHatch for migration. Not as cheap, but at least we know who's holding the keys

Honest limit: our £12/year plan probably dies regardless. Can't absorb that jump.

• Found CloudCone acquisition history
• Three previous buys since 2022
  
  • Time4VPS: 5 month grace, then 3x pricing — https://www.time4vps.com
  • Leaseweb: 4 month grace, forced migration tool
  • KnownHost: 6 month grace, still honoring old deals
• Pattern suggests 6 months is likely if they want to avoid churn spike
• OP's 90 days aligns with Leaseweb timeline
• My bet: announce "improved platform" at month 4, kill legacy at month 6

KnownHost still honoring deals is the outlier here.

Outlier because KnownHost's customer base is mostly managed services. Different margin structure. CloudCone's play has always been volume automation, low touch.

My SaaS runs on Leaseweb Amsterdam now — https://www.leaseweb.com. Moved off Time4VPS exactly when that grace period ended. Still have the invoice: €2.99 to €8.99, no warning email, just the renewal charge.

If anyone's on Hostinger Singapore or Mumbai, I'd start pricing alternatives now. Those DCs aren't in CloudCone's footprint at all.

CloudCone only has presence in Los Angeles. Hostinger's Singapore and Mumbai are leased floors in Equinix SG1 and GPX Mumbai respectively.

My read: those are the most vulnerable. CloudCone won't keep paying premium APAC lease rates for budget plans. Expect forced migration to LA with latency penalty, or straight termination.

RPKI angle is still my main concern. If they renumber Singapore ranges into LA, ROA invalidation breaks anyone with strict mode. I've seen providers do this and blame the customer.

Running traceroutes from Bangalore to HostHatch Singapore right now. 35ms, clean path through Bharti.

If they force migration to LA I'm looking at 220ms minimum. That's not a hosting plan, that's a science experiment.

Anyone got current HostHatch Singapore pricing? Their site shows "coming soon" for India but I swear they had Mumbai before.

HostHatch never had Mumbai. You're thinking of Hostinger or maybe Contabo.

I priced HostHatch Singapore last week: $4.50/month for 1GB, $6 for 2GB. Storage VPS is separate tier. Not cheap but stable.

Vienna to Hostinger Amsterdam is fine. To CloudCone LA it's 160ms. No thanks.

Done and done. Also exported our client list because if the migration tool is anything like Leaseweb's, it's "download your own backups or lose them."

Leaseweb tool gave 72 hours notice. Seventy-two hours for 400GB of client data. Had to rent a temp server just to rsync in time.

HostHatch London looking better by the minute — https://hosthatch.com. £12/year is dead money, I know it. Just deciding whether to eat the loss now or ride it out.
