    I've been a @HostGator customer for well over a decade. My wife was having a major medical issue, and I missed my billing cycle. They deleted everything. No recovery options. I was a month late and missed the emails. Devastating to lose everything like that.

    @HGSupport my website and email has been down for almost 48 hours because of an error in your system causing an outage of my doman. All support can tell me is that it is in a queue.....

  • alifeablaze alab (@alifeablaze) reported

    blog went instantly down because hostgator sucks, it's been 8 hours since it happened and I DIDNT EVEN GET A RESPONSE.

  • LionsofLiberty Lions of Liberty Podcast (@LionsofLiberty) reported

    FYI, we're aware our website is down. The backend still works, so it seems like an issue with our web host. @HostGator why has our site been down for 24 hours?

  • 723Magnus -- (@723Magnus) reported

    @GlobalVarkey @USATODAY @HostGator Hostgator is down?

  • bdmarotta Brendon Marotta (@bdmarotta) reported

    @SubtleBodhi Tried Hostgator. My experience was that their business model was to constantly break things on your site and then charge you to fix them.

  • ehosting411 Gral Hielo Seco (@ehosting411) reported

    @HostGator Sucks

  • codelogg codelog (@codelogg) reported

    btw, my original blog is still being held hostage by hostgator and no real answer from tech support (it has been almost seven hours since my first request for help)

  • GlobalVarkey Global Varkey (@GlobalVarkey) reported

    @HGSupport Four 1.5 hour long calls yesterday was NOT SUFFICIENT for you to fix this issue? How many MORE TELEPHONE CALLS do I have to make to make your SUPPORT TEAM aware of FAILED MAIL DELIVERY and LOSS of EMAILS

  • jprodgers Jimmie P Rodgers (@jprodgers) reported

    @SchuylerTowne @HostGator They are restoring something now, but things will be broken. Better than nothing.

  • eturnti Kiran Divakaran (@eturnti) reported

    @HGSupport @HostGator @hostgatorindia Sent you the details of the problem Rusty please help resolve it as I am not able to send any mails from my outbox and it is nearly 10 days since the problem has manifested.

  • FGOABORG I need to come up with a clever name (@FGOABORG) reported

    @royboy789 Turning permalinks off and then back on was literally the resolution to half of the phone calls I had doing support at hostgator.
