Mehul Mukati (@mehulmukati) reportedhey @BigRockIndia its not fair that you sneak in add-ons at time of domain renewal without my explicit permission. In the last 13-14 years with @hostgatorindia @HGSupport I have never once faced such behaviour. I for sure will be out from your system soon.

Makarand Mane | Organising #WCAsia 2026 (@mkrndmane) reported@HGSupport I asked your support agent to create a ticket for 4 times. Then she created it. Provide an easy option to create support ticket instead of a chat option

-
James W (@NightRaven1969) reported@HostGator there is something going on with the Canadian sites. My servers have been down all day. I think it has to do with blacklisting. Been trying to get answers from host gator all day and they will not give the truth. Canadians that have lost today contact me

Feo Amante 🇺🇸 🇮🇱 🇺🇦 (@FeoAmante) reported@HGSupport @HostGator Your team did not. If they told you that, its false. I get a Hostgator email whenever I sign in. No problem. I got a Hostgator ad trying to sell me more stuff. No problem. Unfortunately your team of Escalated Techs have been unable to send a simple email since Friday, 9:14am

Deporable (@okdeplorable) reported@HostGator Apparently this company has moved all of it's customer service overseas. Consequently you can only understand every other word.
-
HostGator Support (@HGSupport) reported@dcodrea We know that popup looks sketchy, but it isn’t from your HostGator site; it’s a browser extension (Coupert) injecting coupon ads over your dashboard. Try incognito or another browser; if it’s gone, remove the extension. If not, support can help!
-
John Anthony (@johnanthony33) reportedAfter 23 years of being a customer of @HostGator they recently deleted/lost all database content for 4 sites during a hosting renewal.

-
Kudehinbu Oluwaponle (@koluwaponle) reported@HostGator @HGSupport Your support lied to sell me your Nvme vps, (I have chat evidence) which could not support my legacy apps after I made payments totaling $883. I've been trying to receive refunds since Feb 10 without success. Your support has been horrible and of little use

Could you please temporarily unlock my site or downgrade it to the free plan so I can back up my data? the live chat isnt working anymore Thank you for your assistance.

DN (@danielnardicio) reportedWhen looking to replace the dreadful @GoDaddy @GoDaddyHelp with a better company with better customer service, try out Bluehost SiteGround DreamHost HostGator HostPapa InMotion Hosting. You dont have to accept terrible customer service.

-
Shamail Aijaz (@shamailaijaz) reportedDisappointed with @HostGator's customer support. No update on ticket S-2195876 after 5 days. Unprofessional compared to other hosting companies. #worstcustomerservice
-
Chris McElroy SEO (@seochrismcelroy) reportedI can't believe hostgator support has gotten this bad. I needed help with a domain transfer. Called them. Selected help with domain names in the menu. The people I got said since I don't have a hosting account with them they can't help me. I asked them to connect me with somebody that could. But the only thing you can do is chat when it comes to domain names. Never register your domain name at hostgator.

-
Brenton Bostick (@halting_brenton) reported@HGSupport I'm trying to buy a new domain. I agreed to terms of service and clicked Checkout Now. And nothing happens.
-
Robert Tantalo (@rtantalo) reported@HostGator DO NOT use Host Gator. They have taken a month to complete a simple migration and just DO NOT respond. They keep saying they have prioritized the issue but no one ever replies. RUN!!!
-
Sr.Sergio (@SrSergioG) reported@ShopifySupport @HostGator @Shopify I have submitted that form countless times and you have done nothing. If Cloudflare had not notified users the hackers would still be continuing to steal from us without any issues, because you have failed to take action.
