  • elaine4animals Elaine Hendrix Ⓥ (@elaine4animals) reported

    Oh boy. Not only did @HostGator cancel my account w/o notifying me - there are always issues with the portal - the chat continually drops. No one seems to be able to help over there. And now my website & emails are down THE WORST.

  • elaine4animals Elaine Hendrix Ⓥ (@elaine4animals) reported

    @glitzgillies22 @Wix @HostGator is ever worse. They didn’t notify me my domain payment was due. Trying to pay them money to renew is like trying to break into Fort Knox. It’s bizarre. Meantime, my site & emails have been down for 2 days. #Fun

  • coderRajput ApsRajput (@coderRajput) reported from New Delhi, National Capital Territory of Delhi

    @HostGator services are down? No intimation, no resolution.. All support channels are also down @HGSupport @hostgatorindia

  • NosnasMarketing Nosnas Marketing (@NosnasMarketing) reported

    @HGSupport @Beruud Support is not that tech savvy.

  • mcjulie McJulie is a pissed off pro choice riot auntie (@mcjulie) reported

    I signed up with #hostgator after a positiver review in one of the computer mags and I have never regretted a decision more in my life

  • wordpressdotcom WordPress.com (@wordpressdotcom) reported

    @chenebuah Got it. Are you able to contact @HostGator for help? They can likely tell why the email didn't arrive, and may be able to help with the @WordPress error, too.

  • tentsindia VΛNƬΛGΞ VΞNƬURΞS (@tentsindia) reported

    @HostGator @hostgatorindia Its been more than 2weeks that my emails arent working. Im considering taking other service provider as ur Incapable support team arent able to help.

  • Engineerisaac Engineerisaac.com (@Engineerisaac) reported

    @HGSupport We Here at frustrated customers apricate direct and personal responses. We know that when support presses a single button to retort a tweet it activates the inability to act like a passionate human. At the end of this we understand these actions ultimately lead to bad support.

  • superkayuse Kayuse (@superkayuse) reported

    I can't believe that after more than a decade of using @tsohost I am considering leaving them. I have had a request unresolved for 2 weeks & had to get new hosting from hostgator for that domain. You answered support queries within 4 hours before, now you are taking a week.

  • ArjunManchanda9 Arjun Manchanda (@ArjunManchanda9) reported

    @HostGator @HGSupport @hostgatorindia I am facing issues with my email hosting which I have with you all for over 3 years. No TAT given for resolution it's been over 5 days.

  • ZNOneManClan [ZN]OneManClan (@ZNOneManClan) reported

    Beware of shady Hosting Providers.. @zaphosting wont give you any support and they will zap your wallet even after you cancel your service with them collections over 20 bucks! If you want host you can trust @PebbleHosts or @HostGator i've used both. perfect customer service

  • varekai47 Varekai (@varekai47) reported

    .@HGSupport Are you being attacked? Websites getting 404s, support unable to give any info. Are you ok?

  • Ashwanichy1996 Ashwani (@Ashwanichy1996) reported

    @HostGator @hostgatorindia My case I'd is - 40207581 This is regarding cpu load. All your support executive and backed team trying to convince me to purchase managed hosting then only they will help, they even don't try to understand my problem. It's already been 2-3 days.

  • nanda_gagandeep Gagandeep Nanda (@nanda_gagandeep) reported

    It's now 5 hours and still @HostGator is not able to fix its server issues all my 4 websites are down and I am continuously loosing customer just due to a irresponsible behavior by @HostGator @HGSupport

  • writerlane S Lane Porter (@writerlane) reported

    @HGSupport Low level techs are not given any information, dragging time down a vortex and using protocol methods to waste time. Several sites are down (not the WP ones) and I need to know when they'll be back up. Currently on hold/phone getting nowhere.

  • enkitunes Enki (@enkitunes) reported

    So after fighting it for a week Im super duper over HostGator and their **** *** service. Ive been looking at 1&1 for a decent replacement. but id like the hiveminds input on decent webhost.

  • JulieKubiak Julie Kubiak (@JulieKubiak) reported

    WTF is going on @HGSupport? Day 8 of waiting for paid SSL to be implemented on 6 sites. Only 2 have the correct certificates attached to them. Read the tickets before telling me it is a problem my end, clearing the cache won’t fix the problems I’m encountering 🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬

  • mrarey Mark Rarey (@mrarey) reported

    I have had the worst technical support experience with #Hostgator @hostgator. Many calls for 6 days and get nothing but a runaround. Nothing but broken promises! Phillipines support centers make promises that Indian support people continuously ignore.

  • zoomnclick Feroz Khan (@zoomnclick) reported

    @HGSupport every 2 weeks. EXIM server issues. And your fantastic support team has no clue that they occur until I spend 20 mins on chat with them. Do you folks even know what proactive server monitoring is??

  • Andrew51750081 Andrew (@Andrew51750081) reported

    @HostGator worst customer service agents dont talk engkish usa teach noncommercial handle support so your stuck

  • elaine4animals Elaine Hendrix Ⓥ (@elaine4animals) reported

    @HGSupport Chats ended without notice 4 times. Customer support unhelpful. Message in portal says “error in loading.” No one seems to be able to help. This is HORRIBLE service.

  • elaine4animals Elaine Hendrix Ⓥ (@elaine4animals) reported

    @HostGator - you are providing the world’s WORST service. Issues EVERY SINGLE TIME. Errors loading every single time. Chats dropping every single time. No renew notices every single time. You are costing me time & money.

  • Zen62com Zennie Abraham CEO ZENNIE62MEDIA, INC. (@Zen62com) reported

    @HGSupport I ask for update on 40046745, I get no answer. HG rep says "Tell me the issue?" The issue is game-playing - I want a status update on case 40046745!

  • mnxcloudx Monica (@mnxcloudx) reported

    Hey @HostGator, picture this: You e-mail customers at least a day before re-billing them so they get a chance to cancel subscriptions they don't need, and save yourselves the embarrassment of negative reviews on all your social media posts!

  • IconIsland Banks ETH (@IconIsland) reported

    Why does @HostGator have the worst customer & technical support on the planet... like OMG. 😤 ya'll really love wasting people's time.
