  • mdgrkb mdgrkb (@mdgrkb) reported

    @HostGator So after waiting 15 minutes more, 35 minutes total, being number 1 in queue, the chat window said it disconnected and showed a Reconnect button. It reconnected... but put me back in position 11. A real disaster. The Latin American support team for HostGator is damaging the brand

  • rockstarmaxey DaveTheTech (@rockstarmaxey) reported

    @HostGator Why on EARTH, have you made it literally impossible to gain access to Live Chat support? I found a leftover link to another Live Chat support that said, "Sorry, we're not the support you're looking for." I've been a customer since 2009. I've NEVER had this much issue.

  • ger_abol Abol Ger (@ger_abol) reported
