-
Nicky D COYR! (@nick_donellan) reported@HGSupport our email server is running incredibly slow. Do you have an ETA on the fix for this?
-
Vrajesh Parekh (@yourwebcoders) reported@HGSupport @HostGator We have been using a VPS server and reseller hosting for the past 15 years, and recently one of our clients' domains had malware, but instead of suspending that particular domain, they shut down the whole server, and now more than 50 sites are held hostage,

Zennie Abraham ZENNIE62 #SuperBowlLX #NFLDRAFT (@ZennieAbraham62) reportedHey @HGSupport @HostGator I am on chat with Vinayak, who insists on being difficult in helping me wiht my Wordpress problem. Please make him act in accordance with good standards. He does not know Wordpress. I need someone who does. Thanks.

HostGator Support (@HGSupport) reported@viva_trista @HostGator Please be aware that you will be receiving an email from escalated support outlining your path forward. Once you receive that email, please respond as soon as possible.
-
Murder by Gaslight. (@GaslightMurder) reported@HGSupport Isn't this the most basic function of your company? What is going on? When will it be fixed? Why is it so hard to get anyone to respond to problems?
-
Oakland Movies - Oakland News - Zennie Abraham (@OaklandMovies) reported@HGSupport Hey HostGator, fix my server. Where is @NewfoldDigital in all of this?
-
Shailesh Patel (@Shaileshhp46) reported@BigRock after Hostgator migrated to Bigrock, pathetic service. Support numbers never works. No service support. Many glitches. Should not take responsibility which you can not deliver
-
Champion Ratings (@Champ_Ratings) reported@HostGator I've been dealing with support via chat for an hour, I'm currently on my 5th circle with them explaining we didn't order anything as we found HostGator was crap years ago, so left
-
Zennie Abraham ZENNIE62 #NFL #NFLDRAFT #SDCC #OAK (@ZennieAbraham62) reported@HGSupport But the old HostGator would simply charge a fee to fix a “custom config” because it had experts who knew how to code and who knew Wordpress. Why would @NewfoldDigital shy away from making money?
-
Alex | Vibe Coder (@AlexVibeCode) reported@ChristianNFocus @HostGator That’s the worst kind of billing hit — not just expensive, but disconnected from actual usage.
-
Kishor K Sukumar (@kishorksukumar) reportedIt very sad to know that a major server provider like @HostGator struggling to migrate it's own server date to new one even though target server is outdated and existing @cPanel vulnerability, i still doubt your support team even know about basic of blocking and whitelisting ip
-
Zombyboy (@zombyboy) reported@DanMicovic @HostGator Not a single email has been sent to me since last week to let me know what is going on. For me, it's been two days (2 chat sessions and 3 phone calls at various times). The only email I received was last week telling me that our server had been patched and I didn't need to take any action. Then, a few days later, I woke up to our sales guys and editors asking why all of our sites are down. Tomorrow I will be looking at migration options.
-
Hephzibah Magazine TV (@Gabbybooks82) reported@HGSupport Or if you can recreate the current server with the latest OS and CPANEL and restore the service, I will renew the server. We have been in business with you for over ten years, paying heavily and you can't give us our data After your system collapse??
-
Kishor K Sukumar (@kishorksukumar) reportedIt's been 12 days now since my server gone down @HGSupport @HostGator no reply to the DM nor follow up mail for existing tickets and telling us our case in priority list and wait for infinite time without any estimate time #hostgatordown
-
Lissa (@itsjustmetwo) reported@HGSupport Why is it impossible to get anything escalated to people who can actually help?
-
Zombyboy (@zombyboy) reported@HostGator @DanMicovic I've been on two chats and three calls. I did get chat transcripts, but no emails with any information at all about how long I will be waiting. Not sure how sending you my information will help. I do know that tomorrow morning I'll be talking to my boss about KnownHost and InMotion as our new host. I'm hoping you will help make migration as easy as possible.

Zennie Abraham ZENNIE62 #SuperBowlLX #NFLDRAFT (@ZennieAbraham62) reported@HostGator Hi @HostGator and @HGSupport I am still in the chat and now for 29 minutes and not a single admin has come to see about my issue.

Block News Media Global 🌞 ಠ_ಠ (@BlockNewsMedia2) reportedFFS @HostGator - hold for 25+min tech support line?
-
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

Eduardo Morales (@chikipollo08) reported@HostGator I submitted a support ticket regarding my hosting; my emails are not reaching their destination. I've had the ticket open for 3 days and no one has followed up on it.
-
Kishor K Sukumar (@kishorksukumar) reportedDay 9 of my server being completely DOWN with @HostGator. 📉 Provided all details via DM as requested, still nothing. Tickets ACOM-3138 & E-518989 haven't seen an email update in over 60 hours. What does it take to get an actual resolution? @HGSupport
-
MilkmanHero (@MilkmanHero) reportedAh @HostGator broke all my websites, I know they're fire fighting to patch security which is fair enough and I've been patient hoping it'll resolve itself, it hasn't. Really grating is @HGSupport making up absolute nonsense and blaming all my sites being broken on "malware" 🙄🥱

reisz (@Reisz_) reported@omouradobrasil @HostGator o meu chat simplesmente caiu :) 503 Service Unavailable No server is available to handle this request.

Rafael Polcaro (@rafaelpolcaro) reported@HostGator for the past 4 months my website was offline for about 7 days, the Brazilian branch of Hostgator sadly it’s terrible, I'm just a few hours from completing 48 hours offline. Seems nobody cares, never had a server provider like this. It takes days to get the website on
