    @HGSupport I have been trying to view the websites i have hosted on hostgator. And they all take 3 minutes to load(forever). I also tried to access cpanel (login page)and that is taking forever to load. Is hostgator under maintenance? When will this problem be fixed please?

  • RyanJones Ryan Jones (@RyanJones) reported

    @HushWork @BrianHarnish @HostGator Yes, but I can't get into that right now cuz it's down.

  • averma963 अनुपम वर्मा (@averma963) reported

    @HGSupport @HostGator @hostgatorindia only reached out is not enough, you need to solve and fix it permanently, it's now 3 days and your server is down. Your technical team is unable to fix it. It's a frustrating experience for customers.

  • HushWork HushWork (@HushWork) reported

    @RyanJones @BrianHarnish @HostGator 30+ domains, WHM and Cpanels ALL down over here!

  • RyanJones Ryan Jones (@RyanJones) reported

    @ComputerCellar @zach_aren @bluehost Hostgator is down right now. Don't switch to them.

  • PaulaGrayChic Paula Gray (@PaulaGrayChic) reported

    @HostGator Two months ago you charged me 360 USD for a service I did not agree. I am still waiting for the refund you promised... Yesterday you closed the ticket while I still wait my money back = sounds like scam !! @TXAG

  • macdaddys_info macdaddys info (@macdaddys_info) reported

    @HGSupport Are you having issues right now? My email server is down…

  • GuruChuck Guru Chuck (@GuruChuck) reported

    @HostGator I decided to try HostGator… a decision that I now regret. Moving domains is so difficult! I have one that has been “in process” for over two months! Chat support takes forever to respond, with every response. At one point, I forgot I was chatting with support!

  • iammelodyco Melody (@iammelodyco) reported

    .@HGSupport any update on the email outage? 😩

  • Verma73748456 Verma (@Verma73748456) reported

    HostGator? what is the problem?

  • RyanJones Ryan Jones (@RyanJones) reported

    @BrianHarnish @HostGator all my sites are returning 520 errors right now.

  • easpem Eduardo Aspe M. (@easpem) reported

    @HGSupport Is there something wrong with the online chat? Been waiting for almost an hour for a support agent to answer.

  • ParaibaClass Paraíba Classificados (@ParaibaClass) reported

    @RyanJones @HostGator Here in Brasil...the same. All my websites offline and no way to reach the support. What a shame

  • coffee_n_curses Desiree, Slightly Unfiltered (@coffee_n_curses) reported

    Let me guess - @HostGator is down? I swear it's only down when I need to get into my cpanel, which is like 2x a year.

    dude. did hostgator just go down?

  • DoRoyalHost DoRoyal Hosting (@DoRoyalHost) reported

    Well, just to clarify on that, we actually did sell websites, though it was never our main priority. Every single game server rental also came with a free website. We ran these on the HostGator Reseller network.

  • averma963 अनुपम वर्मा (@averma963) reported

    @HostGator @HGSupport @hostgatorindia Hostgator Support :: Case ID :: 40861991 Website is down from last 3days and you are not doing serious efforts to fix it. Can I expect a better service from you??

  • ComputerCellar The Computer Cellar (@ComputerCellar) reported

    @zach_aren @bluehost We switched to BH a week ago due to poor performance on previous host, now everything we use to run our business is effectively down. We've been in contact multiple times over 24 hours, every support person has been useless. Switching to HostGator and requesting a refund ASAP.

  • RyanJones Ryan Jones (@RyanJones) reported

    Hey @HostGator ya'll having some sort of outage right now? none of my sites are loading, and your billing/management portal is timing out too.

  • coffee_n_curses Desiree, Slightly Unfiltered (@coffee_n_curses) reported

    @HostGator I haven't had much time lately to work on my biz stuff. I finally sit down and the #1 thing on my list is to transfer my domain. Of course, @HGSupport is having issues and keeps timing out.

  • casinobaseball Sean Sanchez (@casinobaseball) reported

    @HostGator are your servers down?

  • HushWork HushWork (@HushWork) reported

    @casinobaseball @HostGator 30+ sites.. WHM and Cpanels.. are all down over here!

  • GuruChuck Guru Chuck (@GuruChuck) reported

    @HGSupport I decided to try HostGator and paid for 3 years hosting. After 2 months, I’m ready to flush that money down the toilet and find a new host! There are so many issues, but the biggest problem is tech support. I have tried chat, but the responses take sooooooooooo long!

  • MrOngDedy Dedy Ong (@MrOngDedy) reported

    @hgsupport sites are loading very slow. Are you aware of this? Tried live chat but not connected to any tech support.

  • faisal7moud Faisal Web developer (@faisal7moud) reported

    @RyanJones @HostGator me too same thing and chat support failed

  • ParaibaClass Paraíba Classificados (@ParaibaClass) reported

    @HostGator Helllooo....here in Brasil all websites offline including the hostgator support page. What is going on? When will you solve this big issue?

  • RyanJones Ryan Jones (@RyanJones) reported

    yo @HostGator @HGSupport looks like stuff is down. Ya'll need to address this, tell us you're aware of it and working on it.

  • techvenkat Venkat (@techvenkat) reported
