I got an email from Hetnzer, they will increase price my server for next period, I do not agree with this because my my server can become more expensive. What can I do? Does anyone got same issue with me?

What are your options? Either stay with them and pay the increased cost or migrate elsewhere. Hetzner is already one of the least expensive providers in the industry. Inflation is running rampant worldwide, so I'd fully expect pricing to go up across the board sooner rather than later. I get that this cuts into your budget, but I would ask if you've been satisfied with their services up to now?

Hello Dopani,

Yes, Please make sure that you are satisfied with the service and the resources you have been given and that it is worth paying. Secondly, other alternatives are available right now at the same pricing segment with expected server resources. You better compare the resources you desire and the prices; this will help you have a better idea.

Because I believe service providers are offering good server resources at affordable pricing. And if I am not wrong, this will be around 10% higher than older prices. Which really draws our attention to think about it. So here, you have only two choices either stay with them by paying new costs or Migrate somewhere else.

I think server in areas that are not facing energy crisis like Finland, Malasia, India, would be a good option. Its business so you have the right to look for better and cheaper solution. In short - Time to migrate.

This will soon affect everybody, energy prices are increasing across the world and providers can no more take that in without raising the cost of service.

You are right that energy prices has increased across the globe. But there are countries where production of Electricity is not dependent on Russian gas or oil for warming up their offices. They use coal of their own mines to produce Electricity. Like India produces majority of its Electricity by coal. In India state governments are giving free electricity in many cities.

Bad news, but it would be better if they, along with the price increase, improved the support service quality. The pros of hetzner are that their prices are meager, but damn, I've been waiting for a response from support for 5 days now.
If I were you, I would compare whether you are satisfied with the quality and whether it is worth it. It might be worth migrating to a different host.

As others have said, you can't do much. Your two options are to accept the increase, which given Hetzner's price is probably still reasonable compared to anything similar, or to move everything.

Unless it is a huge increase or you are unhappy with their service for some other reasons then I would say that just paying the (slightly?) increased price make sense.
