@HostGator Has it's databases randomly deleted, and then gets run around by support for 1 hour that thinks it is a DNS issue. Then has the audacity to charge me to restore it. HostGator support used to be so good.

Ever since EIG purchased @HostGator it seems @HGSupport no longer helps resellers. I have been a reseller on Hostgator since 2005, and always been able to call Tech Support, & they would assist me immediately. Now there telling me they can't assist, & need to hire Web Developer?

Use @HostGator if you want your website databases to disappear randomly one day and have support tell you that you are imagining things!!! This is the most outrageous experience I have had in my 13+ years of using you for my business!!!

@HGSupport You have totally annoyed me today. Been in front of my laptop since 10am dealing with issues; 1.5 hrs to fix an error, but the website is now down again. 1 site which has never had a problem, now has an error. At what point are you gonna take responsibility 😡 #PHP

Actually, I think all of My accounts are hacked. Google, Twitter, Facebook, Paypal, Patreon, TeeSpring, BuyMeACoffee, Hostgator, and whatever else. I think they're hacked by rats. And they've never given Me any paperwork---no liens, judgements--nothing. I hear that they... 👇

Tried going down the rabbit hole of getting the @github CLI utility installed on my @HostGator @CentOS 7 VPS without having to build from source. **** it, don’t need it *that* badly.

@ICANN - Is there a way people can report Fraudulent Websites running NFT Scams and have them Shut Down ASAP? @Namecheap and @HostGator seems to be the 2 Favorite providers the Scammers go to.

@BluehostIndia Your VPS is worse than a Hostgator Shared Hosting. Your customer support is even worse. I have contacted 26 times with your chat support in tha past 2 day. Still the issue is not fixed.

@HGSupport Feel free to shoot me a DM and I can provide the traceroute or other info you might need. I've already moved to another hosting provider though after too much finger pointing from previous support calls.

Just told customer support at @HostGator there where wrong when they tried to steer me into using a payed SSL service. I figured out I had to use Run AutoSSL under SSL/TLS in cPanel to get the free Let’s Encrypt working. #webdevelopment

Yeesh. I just accidentally stumbled across an enormous network of thousands of hacked Web sites, many of them hosted by @HostGator, that are being used to distribute macos.bundlore Mac malware and various bits of Windows malware. Working on a blog writeup. #infosec #infosecurity

I did it when working @HostGator. It sucked. Big issue happens when you have 300 employees that have to be on the clock at a given time, 300 employees that stay on the clock until that time, and only 310 desks. Supervisors chew you out for not finding a desk and being on time.

@ICANN @Namecheap @HostGator Great thank you. But in terms of reaction Speed, how can we make sure the Fraudulent Domains are shut down ASAP. Because 1 hr Running is enough to allow them getting away with thousands of dollars.

@hostgatorindia I had my hosting account badly infected with unknown virus only after hosting at you. I never imagined that shared hosting that big immense at hostgator. I now may lose a lot of client websites that costs thousands. You're solely responsible!

@NewfoldDigital @HostGator I have been a loyal customer of Hostgator for 11 years, but its really been painful to watch the degradation of the levels of customer support over the period. I have been confounded by how your support team refuses to take responsibilty.

@HGSupport @HostGator Thanks, after reloading and getting a third support person they were finally able to stick around long enough to figure out the situation.
