    Is anyone else having trouble with #hostgator? My blog has been down all day and now I can't get an agent to help me on the chat. @HostGator

  • abhimishrait Abhishek Mishra (@abhimishrait) reported

    @HGSupport what is going on. Without any prior information, servers are getting down. My clients are facing issues. Worst service ever.

  • IKnowSheTwitent Coach| Consultant|Graphics Design|Brander|Creator (@IKnowSheTwitent) reported

    I aired out GoDaddy because they were the third person that I went to when I have been through this with HostGator and one and one and you bet your bottom dollar all three registrars better be shut down especially GoDaddy they were my last resort and yes I'm suing

  • spookyboorhodes Midnight Scares Podcast (@spookyboorhodes) reported

    @HGSupport I tried your chat system and no one gets back to me. I tried calling and just get bounced around. My SSL certs aren't working right when loading my website. It says pending and the refresh option is not working. Is there an issue? Thanks.

  • Marelisa Marelisa Fabrega (@Marelisa) reported

    @HostGator I was able to connect with someone and my problem has been solved. Thank you.

  • Zen62com Zennie Abraham CEO ZENNIE62MEDIA INC (@Zen62com) reported

    @HGSupport Hello! "It will need to be tested in our environment before it can be made available," is completely wrong. HostGator has never reacted to a simple PhP upgrade this way. Given PhP's wide use, HostGator should have this done already, and not with this slow-rolling pace.

  • gamiparesh5 Paresh Gami (@gamiparesh5) reported

    @HGSupport @HostGator @hostgatorindia Keep your server up and running please. Because you customer have to face the problem. Support is even not working. Don't claim 99% uptime.

  • officialskgupta Sandeep Gupta (@officialskgupta) reported

    @HGSupport It's very urgent and panic ... Fix it now. No Indian support team is picking the calls.

  • gamiparesh5 Paresh Gami (@gamiparesh5) reported

    @HGSupport Why it's stopped working on each day, first answer this? Why support is not receiving a single call?

  • monroeandco Monroe&Co. (@monroeandco) reported

    So .@HostGator .@HGSupport claims to be US-based, but after billing support made numerous mistakes we had to call again today to get a refund for something that was cancelled months ago & auto-renewed anyway. The rep tells me they are in the Philippines. Lying cheating #hostgator

    @HostGator Very Worst services bad servers can be down anytime. You can't trust. Shutdown your services in India with immediate effect.

  • sbsikar Gajanand B. Choudhary (@sbsikar) reported

    @webeyesofta We had purchased a domain from your company and being fed up with your poor service, you are not transferring this domain even after repeated requests to port that domain to HostGator. This proves that your company is fraud company who is troubling people

  • gamiparesh5 Paresh Gami (@gamiparesh5) reported

    @HGSupport @HostGator @hostgatorindia What are you doing there? Again it's down. One of the third class service you are providing. No support working nothing. What's going on?

  • officialskgupta Sandeep Gupta (@officialskgupta) reported

    @HGSupport Very Poor and worst team in india support.. telling lie totally there is one death because of your server failure issue today again ... Kindly take this matter seriously else we need to go to file legal action

  • IKnowSheTwitent Coach| Consultant|Graphics Design|Brander|Creator (@IKnowSheTwitent) reported

    So the horrific crap that GoDaddy pulled no I don't recommend them because HostGator did the same thing and one and one did the same thing and yes I am going to sue them all because years of Damages is not acceptable all of them better be shut down by next year

  • SspVidushi Vidushi Infotech SSP Pvt. Ltd (@SspVidushi) reported

    @HGSupport : @HostGator we many time informed hostgator support team to resolve our websites slowness issue.but they not working on our tickets. after migration we face issue.previous server (HDD IDE) is much faster then new purchased server (SSD). .

  • GeorgeKirikos George Kirikos (@GeorgeKirikos) reported

    @APuneet07 @domainsgeneral Just because I feel he has the stronger case doesn't mean I'm 'biased'. I've never received money from Oxley (although I used to be a customer of HostGator, before he sold it). I'm not doing business with you, so you don't need to 'trust me' on anything.

  • IKnowSheTwitent Coach| Consultant|Graphics Design|Brander|Creator (@IKnowSheTwitent) reported

    So if GoDaddy was told this 8 and 5 years ago and they were told about all the issues with 1 and one 1 HostGator and then they choose to keep up their provocation techniques and tactics that the same things that the other registrar did then everybody has a pattern of fraud

  • _EmmaofAfrica Emmanuel Oluwaseun (@_EmmaofAfrica) reported

    @HostGator is one of the most annoying hosting services I've used. Had issues, contacted support severally with no solution. My hosting package is not even showing in my dashboard anymore🤦. #webhosting

  • Commodork Rob (Flack) O'Hara (@Commodork) reported

    @DavidBSheehan Good morning. I contacted @HostGator again this morning. This is the second outage this week.

  • AGolfs18 Rafagolfs (@AGolfs18) reported

  • RoduanKD Roduan Kareem Aldeen (@RoduanKD) reported

    @enunomaduro Somebody has to wake @HostGator up. They still have no support for php 8 😪😴💤🥱

  • ChecoM83 César A. Dios Valladolid (@ChecoM83) reported

    Is it #HostGator down? Can't access to my cPanel.

  • OzakaOne OzakaOne (@OzakaOne) reported

    @HGSupport Emails failing because shared hosting IP has been added to: UCEPROTECTL3 blacklist. HG support don't seem to understand the issue. "If you are on the UCEPROTECTL2/L3, you have an IP address from your ISP that falls into a poor reputation range. e.g. ISP hosts spammers"

  • Mike_Cluett Mike Cluett (@Mike_Cluett) reported

    .@HGSupport Are you having any issues with email servers? I woke up this morning and my IMAP email was all gone. It’s come back but cant receive or read any mail now.

  • ReidWalley Reid Walley (@ReidWalley) reported

  • normankaui Norman Kaui (@normankaui) reported

    @Marelisa @HostGator Yes, same here. It looks like a mysql issue. The websites are not able to connect to mysql.

  • officialskgupta Sandeep Gupta (@officialskgupta) reported
