    @skystracloud I have zero access. Not even through the HostGator Dashboard. I have just been frustrated because I did not cause this, and they weren't telling me anything. I think that is terrible customer service.

    Ali Bhai (@orezal) reported

    Is your server down @HostGator? i cannot access any website, even hostgator portal #hostgator

    @HostGator One of my client's site appears to be back up now. I'd like to get some clarity on the cause of the outage.

    @HGSupport @orezal sites are down again. 2nd day in a row of this nonsense.

    @HostGator I’ve been working for 10 years, but no more…3 break down ( 21 Oct, 26 Oct and Today) is toooooo much.

    @HostGator The fun part is their server is now responsive but chat support is still in pitch black mode.

    @HostGator @EveryChildMatt I'm experiencing the same - no cpanel, whm or any access at all. Not just websites down - no email, etc.

    @HostGator and work on SSL for the brave browser...Im sick of this crap. Every time I pull up my site the lock is missing....this keeps happening, and the last time I could not even log in to my HostGator dashboard...HG is going downhill

    @HostGator @HGSupport again is down!!!!!

  • MacMavens
    MacMaven Consulting (@MacMavens) reported

    @HGSupport, I'm supporting a HostGator customer with IMAP mail. A problem with a large inbox: iOS Mail app isn't sorting chronologically when downloading mail. Presumably it's sorting by message UID on server, which got out of order. Do you have a procedure to fix UID order?

  • itsNiravM
    Nirav Mehta (@itsNiravM) reported

    @HostGator @HGSupport @hostgatorindia -- Why is the chat support so slow? Cannot get hold of anyone since past 2 hours.

  • mixitbaby
    MIXITBABY (@mixitbaby) reported

    @HostGator This whole situation is pathetic. No updates, no support and no compensation when this happens and it's happened a lot lately... anyone recommend a more reliable reseller platform that actually cares about their customers?.. like I do mine...

    InBurgerVeritas (@InBurgerVeritas) reported

    Hey, my website is still down!!! I m losing money 💰!!! No one on customer care. #hostgator

    @HostGator servers are down due to a cyber attack.

    @R1Creative @HostGator Same. Used em for years. Price gone up and up in that time. And service getting worse. Lack of comms pees me off.

    @HostGator Even Affiliate program is facing the issue - your tracking platform Impact Radius is also showing sales Inactive since long and people are not getting any revert please advise

  • smorebrands
    S'more Brands (@smorebrands) reported

    @HostGator I'm back online now, thanks. **** happens, I get that. But when you don't explain the situation we can't estimate the future risk. So I imagine a lot of us will assume the risk of this continuing is high and will migrate to another host.

  • HolmKeith
    Keith Holm (@HolmKeith) reported

    @HostGator @HGSupport has the absolute worst customer service. I paid them to upgrade my VPS to the Snappy 8000 and in that process they somehow crashed my server. I actually have no idea what happened, other than I have had no access to my site since 1:00pm Monday!

  • prometeusx
    Oscar Aguilar (@prometeusx) reported

    @LaurelNevans @HostGator @HGSupport I´ve been testing racknerds for more than 2 months and so far so good, I´m moving all my accounts from HG, and the support has been good and fast

  • zoforeman
    Alonzo Foreman (@zoforeman) reported

    @david_giorgi @HGSupport @HostGator Stay away from MT, our sites have been down consistently the past week with no resolution in sight. They have gone down hill lately and many are migrating off.

  • JuxVP
    Bryant Hester (@JuxVP) reported

    @HGSupport @HostGator Dedicated server is down going on three hours now. Was informed by support call that there was no need for me to report. Any ETA on restoration of service?

  • TxMerak
    Greg Moore (@TxMerak) reported

    @HostGator Sites down for hours on end. No response from anyone. "Phone Queue" now says there are issues and redirects to chat. Chat times out. No access to my reseller account and customers are pissed. Agree with others, might be time to look for a more reliable host...

  • goleveled
    LEVELED (@goleveled) reported

    @HostGator Everyone that relies on one server to host their website is living in the early 2000s. At this point you should be using CDN networks and hosting DNS that allows your website to be up if one server goes down. Hostgator was great before Brent sold. Now there is now advancement.

  • Ashishhustle
    Ashish (@Ashishhustle) reported

    @HostGator Eventually the server is responsive. Seems like a network issue.

    @GTrader38 @HostGator I´ve been wiht HG for more than 10 years but Im moving all my accounts now bcuz all the problems, I´ve been testing racknerds for 2 months and so far so good and the support is really good and fast

    Bytesnbeers (@BytesnBeersTV) reported

    @hostgator used to by my go to for stable hosting...today all of my clients' sites and email have been down ALL DAY, no communication from HG, support is useless, and I'm done. Please send me your hosting co recommendations, this is absolute bullshit.

    @HostGator @HGSupport You are the only hosting provider who can not find find malware in your own hosting or you just want to charge for everything. Worst Hosting Provider..

    Central Scrutinizer (@Philalethesa) reported

    @HostGator After years of literally no problems there's been frequent outages over the last couple of weeks. What's happening? Online chat just dumps my connection. All in all very poor service from the gators. I'm getting ready to jump ship!
