  • fkgibbs fkgibbs (@fkgibbs) reported

    The support tech at @HGSupport @HostGator promised to send me an email with the link to a forum where I can track their progress on fixing the email problem. That was 2 hours ago. It just occurred to me, he can’t send an email either. This is nuts.

  • brianhartgen Brian Hartgen 🎧🎙 (@brianhartgen) reported

    @HGSupport Since your migration to a new data centre Email message delivery is either slow or in some cases nonexistent. I note you have many other people here experiencing the same issue. Please investigate it as soon as possible!

  • saldana8307 Juan José Saldaña (@saldana8307) reported

    @HGSupport I am still having issues. My customers are calling me each hour to accomplish.

  • r_sotojr Ricky (@r_sotojr) reported

    @HGSupport @IsItYumOrYuck yeah well it would kind of defeat the purpose of an ETA for an issue that is no longer ongoing, doesn't it?

  • tigo Tiago Dias (tigo) (@tigo) reported

    @waltinhobr @shoaibhussain @HGSupport Bad idea

  • bhrtchaudhry भरत चौधरी (@bhrtchaudhry) reported

    @HostGator @hostgatorindia You service is getting degraded/terrible DBD. Mail Server not working from past week. Are you guys looking into it? #HostgatorDown

  • r_sotojr Ricky (@r_sotojr) reported

    @skystracloud @HostGator Yes. But it’s been 4 days since nobody can send emails. They leave the outbox but never reach the recipients. Not even a bounceback error. I have 20+ domains with them and all of them hace the same issue.

  • saldana8307 Juan José Saldaña (@saldana8307) reported

    @HostGator We are having too many email issues. Please help!

  • tazmahan Panos (@tazmahan) reported

    @HGSupport any news about the latest email deliverability issue? Some mails are delivered after hours, others do not, without any message. All clients are ranting and we don't know what to tell them... Once again we provide terrible service without being our fault. 😔

  • illegalFawn illegalFawn (@illegalFawn) reported

  • shoaibhussain Shoaib Hussain (@shoaibhussain) reported

    @HGSupport @HostGator still not resolved. Will it be soon or will it take days like the data center migration which you had last week ? websites were down for most of last week!

  • zahidshujakhan zahid khan (@zahidshujakhan) reported

    @HostGator It has been a long time since my server has been down, so I think it's time to switch hosting providers. The customer service at Hostgator is crap, the front-end agent does not have access to anything. There is no way to contact the admin. I'm leaving Hostgator

  • waltinhobr WalTRInho- Libertadores eu sou Tri (@waltinhobr) reported

    @HostGator My clients are complaining since Friday! Fix it!!!! I want to know if there will be any discount on the billing for this reason.
