  • rotto_balli Monuments funeraires, Marbre et Granit ROTTO-BALLI (@rotto_balli) reported

    @HGSupport For what? To do nothing and ask to buy your #sitelock antivirus service? WHAT A JOKE !

  • chaiwat08533526 chaiwat (@chaiwat08533526) reported

    @HostGator That's the big problem for me.

  • illGatesMusic ill.Gates “The Future” Out NOW :) (@illGatesMusic) reported

    @EthaanJack Thank you. Their support were TERRIBLE. Trying to gaslight me and then pass the buck on to @HostGator. So wack. HostGator wasn’t even involved in this domain!

  • tfbretz Theron Bretz (@tfbretz) reported

    @TheSpiceMustJoe @NjalTjorkilsson I'm not gonna lie, I've heard some of those help desk gigs are kind of terrible (cough **HostGator** cough), but folks who come out of that environment usually have very marketable skills to move up in IT.

    @HGSupport Hostgator is a real nightmare, no answer, and when u got answer, it will be we will check and advise, no follow up, 15 days down, paying for a full month !!! Any answer here @HostGator @HGSupport IWRef:a1L1Q00000Ju4sY

  • ManyCollect Many Collect (@ManyCollect) reported

    @HGSupport hey, I’m very upset. 3rd straight day you guys have “fixed” my problem and then it just comes right back. My customers can’t upload pictures, and I’m getting SICK AND TIRED OF HOSTGATOR

    @EngrFarmann @HostGator @HGSupport I hope they resolve my refund issue now

  • missmeaghan missmeaghan (@missmeaghan) reported

    @HostGator I'm not able to log into the HostGator Portal and your password reset option isn't working. I can't even let you know about it because I have to log in to said portal to submit a support ticket. Can I get some help?

  • UrbanAborigane Rhymes with Let It Be! 🎶🎵😃✌🤞🤟🙏❤🤠 (@UrbanAborigane) reported

    @VJShordee444 @ViacomCBS @HostGator "Mike" wasn't hired to help you. He was hired to get you off the phone ASAP. I know the industry. His name is probably David..

  • tehseenkhan009 Tehseen💻 (@tehseenkhan009) reported

    @HostGator @HGSupport i need refund my dedicated server and the contact support is not helping

  • CrazeNOK CrazNOK (@CrazeNOK) reported

    @tehseenkhan009 @HostGator @HGSupport I've used hostgator for 10+ years now. Never once had an unauthorized entry. You're doing it wrong.

  • CaseyToGo Casey // (@CaseyToGo) reported

    @HGSupport Is your website having issues? I can not even load the login portal but accessing any other website seems fine.

  • brokernathan brokernathan (@brokernathan) reported

    The only thing worse than having my @HostGator hosted email being down is being told by @HGSupport that it's not down when it clearly is.

  • stephanwozniak Steve Wozniak (@stephanwozniak) reported

    @HostGator “HostGator locked my domains when I attempted to move them to another registrar, and in the process of trying to resolve it, accidentally granted me full ownership of another one of their customer’s domain names.” - Steve Wozniak

  • tehseenkhan009 Tehseen💻 (@tehseenkhan009) reported

    @ishamulhaq511 @HostGator @HGSupport I hope so , they said they re recommending me but idk what ******** wd happen

  • LordPhantom Mathew Taylor (@LordPhantom) reported

    @brokernathan @HostGator @HGSupport Get your email onto Microsoft 365, you'll never have a problem again.

  • VJShordee444 I AM Valerie & trump is still dangerous (@VJShordee444) reported

    Oh just so you know, Mike, the customer service guy from @ViacomCBS was a ****** customer service guy. He was **** from the moment he said hello. He definitely wasn’t like the guy I had from @HostGator. Totally different. And both times I’m a paying customer.

  • nitin_mohanka Nitin Mohanka (@nitin_mohanka) reported

    @GoDaddyHelp When I contacted your Customer Care yesterday, they asked me to shift to VPS just because I want to create Functions in MySQL. These Functions can easily be created on Hostgator Shared Hosting

  • brian08AVP Brian Alexis (@brian08AVP) reported

    why my 3 sites are down? @HGSupport

  • terrassacat Terrassa Catalunya (@terrassacat) reported

    @HGSupport So you answer me by selling me another service? Omg! You are becoming scammers !!!

  • ishamulhaq511 𝕀ℍ𝕋𝔼𝕊ℍ𝔸𝕄 𝕌𝕃 ℍ𝔸ℚ 𝕤𝕙𝕒𝕞 (@ishamulhaq511) reported

    @tehseenkhan009 @HostGator @HGSupport Hope they help this time but i am hopeless since they never help👎👎

  • tufail_khan215 Muhammad Tufail Khan (@tufail_khan215) reported

    @tehseenkhan009 @HostGator @HGSupport Most probably the paid partners and workers would contradict the claims but it is evident from the chat screenshot !!! well-done. The business is never ever a one way road that you took the money and do not provide the service you paid for

  • SheIsViBRANt ⊹ ˙˖ ც𝘳ꪖꪀᦔꪗ ˖˙ ⊹ (@SheIsViBRANt) reported

    Probably got on @HostGator’s nerves as many times as I hopped on the support queue because of all of the obstacles. At one point, my IP was whitelisted and I could not see my site on my home network. Then, I got locked out of my own WordPress. That was a 3-4 hour ordeal.

  • Ray1022LEE Ry Lee (@Ray1022LEE) reported

    @HostGator my website is extremely slow when connecting to the database from yesterday the chat service says it is due to overuse by the host owners. but this never happens

  • PortiaPodsnap Po 🌞 (@PortiaPodsnap) reported

    @zion781 @LaneHenson10 @newsmax Serious people don't use GoDaddy or HostGator or other conglomerate rollups that job out their tech support to Hindustan. There are many quality ISPs and domain resellers to choose from.

  • JAB4R Jab4r (@JAB4R) reported

    Never host your website or app on hostgator , once i hosted my app on their shared plan my email got spammed by emails from unknown people , they are selling your email and information , they hide it with ( your domain info is public ) but thats a lie

  • emilywillisxexo Emily Willis (@emilywillisxexo) reported

    @rotto_balli @HostGator In my honest opinion support team seem not interested in helping. I was hacked also and I’ve laid complaints and still nothing from them, lucky i ran into some recommendations about @utopiantechh I explained to them and they helped me get back my account

  • doublecupwave The Double Cup (@doublecupwave) reported

    Website was down the past 5 days - my apologies to anyone who tried to access it. Blame HostGator..
