    @HostGator Can you pls advise what is wrong is your software that you are not allowing to transfer the domain? It is you stoop to such levels...i am OK for charity. But atleast pls allow transfer of domains, as this is more of an issue

  • blackkingkofi KOFI 🇨🇦🇹🇹🇬🇭 (@blackkingkofi) reported

    Someone at @HostGator support told me try using a different internet provider to fix my issue. How ******** would I have a completely different internet provider at my home to switch to? I swear these companies hire idiots for their support

    Does anyone have any good hosting recommendations? I am up to here with Hostgator - their support is just a big pile of 💩these days

  • Ssh_Just_Buy Ssh Just Buy (@Ssh_Just_Buy) reported

    Never buy Domain with @HostGator. If you don't buy privacy for extra $10 (which is $3-4 on others), right after, your phone will get 10-30 calls everyday from call centers who offers you web services, while @HGSupport hang-up on your face.

  • Fankle Dougie Kelly (@Fankle) reported

    @MichelleOwen7 I was sorry to read that you are still having issues from the after effects of HG. I hope you are as well as possible. I sent a small donation to Tommy's, but should I have sent it to hgsupport instead?

  • Kingofcarrental King of Car Rentals (@Kingofcarrental) reported

    @HostGator #phishing on your servers, which was reported on November 21, is still active: .pe.novadigio .com/ .pe.novadigio .com/login Peruvian proxy + Android device are required or it redirects to the official site Please remove it

  • AzDocMur1 AzDocMur1 (@AzDocMur1) reported

    @HGSupport thanks, that site is fine. I'm trying to update 60 different websites and for some reason I keep getting ftp failed errors, but after 10 mins they clear, so am going to work with that. Thanks, but dms are a pain and getting to support by phone is as well. Have a great one!

  • Ssh_Just_Buy Ssh Just Buy (@Ssh_Just_Buy) reported

    @HGSupport @HostGator Just stop using crap companies (3rd parties) to register domains, because you can not solve a problem you do not own.
