Aiden Fau (@AidenFau) reported@HostGator server is down for desktop app using mysql, cant connect

Zennie Abraham ZENNIE62 #NFL #NFLDRAFT #SDCC #OAK (@ZennieAbraham62) reported@HGSupport Never. Ever. In this life or the next, refuse work. Understand? It’s a bad look.
-
HostGator Support (@HGSupport) reported@dcodrea We know that popup looks sketchy, but it isn’t from your HostGator site; it’s a browser extension (Coupert) injecting coupon ads over your dashboard. Try incognito or another browser; if it’s gone, remove the extension. If not, support can help!

Faizan Shaikh (@FaizanS1996) reported@DanMicovic @HGSupport @HostGator That’s rough, 2 weeks with no access is unacceptable, especially for email and client sites. You may want to start looking at alternatives like Fresh Roasted Hosting. Their support is much more responsive, and the uptime has been solid in my experience.

Ⓜ️ina Nathan 💻 (@minaenathan) reportedI not recommend using HostGator or Bluehost. Their security is extremely weak, management is poor, and they consistently focus on charging extra fees instead of providing reliable service. My experience with them for over 8 years has been very disappointing. #bluehost #hostgator

Sir Charles Cary (@SirCharlesCary) reported@NewfoldDigital @HostGator How is it that a customer of 15 yrs is treated w/ such little regard? I have not received any notice stating that your company's policy is not to refund customers on advanced hosting payments when svc is discontinued after 3 failures in 2 months

Chris McElroy SEO (@seochrismcelroy) reported@hostgatorserver Nice that you don't provide any phone support at all for domain names. I selected domain name in the menu. The people on the phone said since I don't have hosting with you they can't help me and nobody can help on the phone only in live chat that keeps getting disconnected while I wait on someone. Good job hostgator!

Zennie Abraham ZENNIE62 #NFL #NFLDRAFT #SDCC #OAK (@ZennieAbraham62) reported@HGSupport @NewfoldDigital I have emails from HostGator going back to 2010. I can show you many times HostGator Admins have done yeoman work in coding. I learned a lot from them. That should be your model, not this frankly lazy approach that HG has adopted. Make some coin and help your customers.

Ghayas uddin (@ghayasbst) reported@HGSupport Dear Hostgator, why is there still no solution for cpanel Security issues. Almost 48 hours are gone, our website is OFF. And not giving any ETA on this issue. We are losing our viewers which we built in years.

Hephzibah Magazine TV (@Gabbybooks82) reported@HGSupport I am a journalist so many Government systems depend on my brother who depends on your company. For two weeks the server has been down and he has never witnessed this kind of thing before. As a result of this my brother is totally confused, down and hospitalized
-
Kishor K Sukumar (@kishorksukumar) reportedIt very sad to know that a major server provider like @HostGator struggling to migrate it's own server date to new one even though target server is outdated and existing @cPanel vulnerability, i still doubt your support team even know about basic of blocking and whitelisting ip

Geetha Prabhu (Workflexi) (@geetu11) reported@BigRock @hostgatorindia Can someone call me on my registered mobile no. pls? Every week our emails are down and your team takes one whole day to rectify the problem. When it was hostgator, we never faced this issue. What is that you guys are doing differently that we have to suffer every week!!??

Hephzibah Magazine TV (@Gabbybooks82) reported@HGSupport Hello @HostGator @HGSupport I’m reaching out on behalf of my brother. His educational platform serving over 3000 schools in Nigeria has been down for over 2 weeks under case E-527097. We keep receiving only automated responses. Please we urgently need escalation to a senior engin

INALEGWU (@tchaloyi) reportedImagine a company the size of @HostGator still uses real humans in their support. I've been using them for years and their customer support is the number one reason I won't be leaving anytime soon. A company's CS is one of the best marketing strategies often ignored. They'd learn

Daniel Micovic (@DanMicovic) reported@HGSupport @HostGator Nothing is connecting. No cPanel or WHM access, sites and email still down.

Joseph Franco (@francojosephsd) reported@HGSupport @DanMicovic @HostGator There is no service in my VPS since monda. One whole work week lost.

Hephzibah Magazine TV (@Gabbybooks82) reported@HGSupport What else do you need.D server has been down for 3 weeks. When it happened we immediately contacted you, and you recommended, we purchase a new dedicated server for migration, which we did but you never could fix the old server to migrate us to D new. *I-25506113 is the ref ID*

Zennie Abraham ZENNIE62 #SuperBowlLX #NFLDRAFT (@ZennieAbraham62) reportedHi @HostGator I am still in the chat and now for 23 minutes and not a single admin has come to see about my issue.

Zennie Abraham ZENNIE62 #NFL #NFLDRAFT #SDCC #OAK (@ZennieAbraham62) reportedHey @HGSupport @HostGator I am waiting for someone to respond to my presents in the help cue in my server. 10 minutes and counting.
-
MilkmanHero (@MilkmanHero) reportedAh @HostGator broke all my websites, I know they're fire fighting to patch security which is fair enough and I've been patient hoping it'll resolve itself, it hasn't. Really grating is @HGSupport making up absolute nonsense and blaming all my sites being broken on "malware" 🙄🥱

HostGator (@HostGator) reported@darthguero @HGSupport Have you tried our frontline phone support? If you haven't, please try to do so as they are the best to assist when it comes to this kind of issue.

Artfool Politics (@artfoolpolitics) reported@HostGator @Trrance How about stop telling us how frustrating it is and actually do your freaking job and FIX IT????
