    @HGSupport @HGSupport in the support chat, 4 agents attended and none of them could help me transfer a domain, shouldn't their system do it automatically?

    @bruh_brigade @AdamIT10 Don't confuse #Hostinger (could be good) with #Hostgator (for sure terrible). Be careful! :-)

  • t4bacademy Teaching 4 Business (@t4bacademy) reported

    @HGSupport - any idea when your VPS Support team are likely to fix our VPS. We have clients unable to access their email or web sites since Saturday evening, and all support keep saying is "Our VPS Admin are working on it and cannot give an estimated time for fix"!

  • mrliambi Mr Liambi (@mrliambi) reported

    @HGSupport So it is okay to send / receive spam as long as you pay more. I see... and when exactly did you realize you could monetize this "Bug" I have been an hostgator customer 10 Years, never have I had any trouble with Catch all , until you decided I should pay to enjoy it.

  • iamsantifox Santi Fox (@iamsantifox) reported

    one site I made using semplice is slow and running on @GoDaddyHelp the other on @HGSupport and it's running fine.

  • d_joffe David Joffe ⌨🖌🎨 (@d_joffe) reported

    @skystracloud For their part, SiteGator's support have at least now replied with a fix that looks like it may fix the problem, so am running tests now. I was previously mostly happy with HostGator - so I may try move back to them if things don't settle with SG.

  • BroccoliMc fox (@BroccoliMc) reported

    @AwfulLiveries dude that furniture row car is a banger hood on the hostgator car is bad, but I'm SURE there's something worse

    .@jetpack told me my site was down for 12 minutes. This has been happening more often. @HostGator, what’s going on over there? /cc @HGSupport

  • PedroOl39048195 Pedro Oliveira (@PedroOl39048195) reported

    @HostGator someone can help me ? I got charged with a new year subscription automatically without any warning. I want to cancel it and get refounded. Thank you

  • xotified Home Of Jewelry ✨ (@xotified) reported

    @HostGator I have never been as spammed as I've been since giving you my information. I'm averaging 50 calls a day and close to 30 emails. Smh.

  • regainyourname Regain your name (@regainyourname) reported

    @HGSupport Now those actions - not authorized by us or our developed - directly caused our website to go down. Please apologize.

  • d_joffe David Joffe ⌨🖌🎨 (@d_joffe) reported

    @skystracloud Actually I was totally happy with HostGator's service for years - never had problems But at some stage HG wanted to a high per-site fee for SSL certs when everyone else was offering free certs - so I decided to try SG. In hindsight I probably would've been happier just paying

    Oh good, my website is down again. What's going on, Hostgator?

  • erik2point0 Erik Johnson (@erik2point0) reported

    @HGSupport I’m not interested in your tech support. As I said, it’s not my site. And I’m not interested in calling out your misogyny only in DMs.
