Pair Networks, a hosting provider, significantly increased its rates from $88 to $159 per year, with the change taking effect upon service renewal starting January 1, 2025.
The company also announced the launch of new Pair Platinum Mail services, replacing the current free email offerings. The transition to the new email service bundles will increase the cost from $159 to $639 starting June 1, 2025.
Customers expressed dissatisfaction with Pair's approach, citing the lack of flexibility in purchasing mailboxes and the perceived marketing rigidity of the new service offerings.
This sudden increase in prices, coupled with changes in services, has prompted customers to explore alternative hosting options or consider migrating their websites to different servers.
