    @HostGator Your migration to an external email filtering system cost me $3000 in lost business, IT costs, expedite fees, and new web host costs after I couldn’t send emails to clients expecting projects AND my site got blacklisted. I was nearly a 15-year customer. FU @HostGator

  • Benitez2Ines ines benitez (@Benitez2Ines) reported

    @HostGator @algarve_family Good afternoon, gentlemen, I have had a problem since Thursday, June 30, before none of the emails I sent arrived, now if I send from Outlook the email does not reach its destination, this happens with all the domains on the server, I write to the chat support they do not answer

  • fkgibbs fkgibbs (@fkgibbs) reported

    @HostGator This outgoing email problem continues without a resolution. Calls to support are met with a 99 minute potential whole time. Chat responses are not happening at all. I want to change hosts, but can’t reach anyone. I feel my data is being held hostage. WHAT IS GOING ON?

  • saldana8307 Juan José Saldaña (@saldana8307) reported

    @hither2forlorn @HostGator I have until tonight, my customer sent me a notification that they are not working with me anymore.

  • ProgScape ProgScape (@ProgScape) reported

    @HostGator I have a client whose email has been down for days. I just wrote an email to their CEO, Adam Farrar, in an attempt to get it fixed. Was hung up on by a support rep when trying to speak to a supervisor today. Long, long time customer who is frustrated by @HGSupport @HostGator

    @HostGator is that's the joke. I been promised to get my backup done in 24-48 hours. Now its 5 days and every day in chat someone says wait another 24 hours. Im your customer for 11 years don't ruin it.

  • biggusgeekus Biggus Geekus (@biggusgeekus) reported

    Looks like I have a functional site. Needs some design TLC and testing. Have some creator details to work out. Caveats: 1. No POD right now. At the very early stages. 2. I have to rely on HostGator to resolve server issues 3. I need a lawyer ASAP. I am making progress

  • DawnRasmussen Dawn Rasmussen (@DawnRasmussen) reported

    @MyName78930514 @HostGator I walked after being their customer for 15 years. This migration of email filtering flagged my account AND blacklisted my site. Clients are furious that I didn't respond to them. I did- Hostgator just hung my sent items in their queue as BLOCKED.
