  • JasmynElaine Jas (@JasmynElaine) reported from Kansas City, Kansas

    I really can’t understand how I KEEP getting billed for Domain Privacy protection with @HostGator and I literally don’t have any domains with them anymore. Where tf do I cancel this ****????

  • seekerart7 just another lad 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿🎶 (@seekerart7) reported

    @HGSupport Live chat is down.. I have it open but the loading gif has been whirling for 20 min now & nothing - I checked it in 2 browsers. I could forgive this on some level if I was having my emails responded to regarding a serious server issue but no response.

  • Mommaforreal Shadee (@Mommaforreal) reported

    @HGSupport is anything going on with your servers now? Can’t login.

  • msgabrielleann Gabrielle (@msgabrielleann) reported

    I might be more irritated than normal but @HostGator support is absolute TRASH 🗑

  • dianaracapistra Dianara Sy (@dianaracapistra) reported

    @HostGator Until now our email is down. Send your incident report and justify your reason for what happened.

  • lexsukehiro lex (@lexsukehiro) reported

    @WHMCSCares I'm trying to get my Hostgator's license since yesterday. My domain was supposedly sent to some kind of manual review there's more than 24h and I still have no answer, nor on my e-mail, neither on the client area. Can you PLEASE help me?

  • drummereyesafi Ali is Irwin’s Fire-Stream Ai & 5SOS⭐️ (@drummereyesafi) reported

    @Tha5SOSFamily @thehoneypop @HostGator Wow that doesn’t sound very business friendly to me. So sorry. Why did they take it down in the first place?

  • heyitslynneg Lynne Gabriel-Caine (@heyitslynneg) reported

    @HGSupport I’m in Houston too. Power down really wasn’t a week long. 🤥 I’ve basically been told lies when some reps told me the migration is in progress. 🙄

  • auntie_beak Auntie Beak (@auntie_beak) reported

    @hgsupport @HostGator Losing patience with your "help." I contacted your chat support 1 week ago for help with a database security issue. The "support" person proceeded to destroy my website. Now all my links are broken. I have an open ticket.

  • KatKlaw 18-wheel ****** bastard (@KatKlaw) reported

    @HGSupport soooo it appears my site is broken, throwing SQL errors, having issues accessing the help system.

  • ioo_infinity iO Infinity (@ioo_infinity) reported

    @HostGator We recommend not to use @HostGator services, terrible service, terrible support, no customer service, a total lack of respect.

  • AffiliatesWatch The Affiliate Watch (@AffiliatesWatch) reported

    @SocalRegionWeb I don't know, if you have issues at HostGator, you'll have them at BlueHost, they're the same company, lookup 'EIG', nightmare hosting conglomerate. Be careful.

  • VicHecha Vic Hecha (@VicHecha) reported

    @AerieSaunders $1000 a year for hosting? Does that all go to HostGator? Would love to help lower those costs if so. Understand you are writing an article for new talent. Pretty interested in seeing if we could partner to help lower any hosting overheads potential talent might have.

  • lalala_lietome guada 卌 ✜ (@lalala_lietome) reported

    @Tha5SOSFamily @thehoneypop @HostGator Damn that’s terrible! I’m sorry this is happening to you guys :c I really like the honey pop content

  • EthaanJack Ethan Jackson (@EthaanJack) reported

    @pardocorp Previously, I had terrible experience with Hostgator too. My site had so many downtimes. Just moved to new services!

  • lietome_luke lie to me (@lietome_luke) reported

    @Tha5SOSFamily @thehoneypop @HostGator Wtf... I'm so sorry, this is so ****** up...

  • platinummind D E L O W U S U aka Pianoman (@platinummind) reported

    @HostGator I’m having serious problems with your hosting service right now. My site has been down for almost a week, and I was assured with all the measures put into place this wouldn’t happen again. Can I have a resolution or should I move my business elsewhere?

  • ImEdward83 Edward Johnson (@ImEdward83) reported

    @HGSupport @Tha5SOSFamily Hostgator's service made satan look good.🌚

  • JayLav_ Jay Lav (@JayLav_) reported

    @HostGator @HGSupport over a month and still no resolve on my DNS issues, how are you still a profitable company?

  • YesMissCabrel Miss Cameron Cabrel (@YesMissCabrel) reported

    I FINALLY, after MONTHS of having the domain and the package, got the motivation to start working on my website...and @HostGator is either not working, or I'm just confused. -.-

  • heyitslynneg Lynne Gabriel-Caine (@heyitslynneg) reported

    Super impressed with @skystracloud services & tech support so far. 4 days with @HostGator & they haven’t even begun migrating my sites. @skystracloud only took a few hours with constant updates. #forthewin

  • coderinthebox Coder in the Box (@coderinthebox) reported

    @cyberdragn @HostGator Domain info is always public. It is web name catalog until you purchase domain privacy service. Domain privacy service is like a P.O. box post office service that you need to buy extra

  • 4Landeros Marco (@4Landeros) reported

    @HostGator In Gastor I tried the service for 1 month and I liked it later before the 2nd invoice was due, I changed the plan from monthly to annual and paid the annual one. Now they send me mail that my service has been suspended for non-payment. I want my services Rigth Now!!!.

  • Beruud Jay Zippo (@Beruud) reported

    Anybody know Hostgator down? Can't get to my sites now for 15 minutes. @HostGator @HGSupport - Yeah it seems like it... oh well, check back in 15.

  • dianaracapistra Dianara Sy (@dianaracapistra) reported

    @HGSupport Until now our email is down. Send your incident report and justify your reason for what happened.

  • pardocorp Ed Pardo (@pardocorp) reported

    In a few words: @HostGator is the worst hosting service ever!

  • Adam_Walters Adam Walters (@Adam_Walters) reported

    My biggest stress in my life is @HostGator 's stupid automated answering machine. Quit being poor and hire someone. Fyi, I'm on my third attempt to fix a problem. So far my experience with you all sucks terribly.

  • andre_mke Andre Robitaille (@andre_mke) reported

    @nicktherat Depends what you want. Their one-click software install list is very small, and I've noticed more outages than bluehost. The webmail is also pretty bad. But otherwise I think the management console and renewals system is much better than bluehost. Haven't tried hostgator though.

  • webzcc Webz.cc (@webzcc) reported

    @ImEdward83 @HGSupport @Tha5SOSFamily DAMN

  • carngerrish CarnGerrishCreative (@carngerrish) reported

    @HostGator I’m probably losing a client - still waiting for you to fix your server after 3 days - website still down
