    @learner_lab @dannyjeffers @HostGator There response Before we proceed, I just want to let you know that our team is already aware of sudden disconnection while our customer is chatting with us. This is already being worked on and resolved by our Admins, in any case we got disconnected,

  • dannyjeffers Danny Jeffers (@dannyjeffers) reported from Düsseldorf District, Nordrhein-Westfalen

    @HostGator Is there an outage right now? The host gator site is giving me errors… AND all my sites are down. Chat support is dead still at a 5-min wait and hasn’t changed.

  • jeff_rogerson Jeff Rogerson (@jeff_rogerson) reported

    @ryandouglas0410 @HostGator @HGSupport Can you tell me how long you’ve been experiencing this deteriorated service. I only noticed this morning, but I haven’t been around my site since Thursday.

  • PureElementsCo1 Pure Elements Consultancy Ltd (@PureElementsCo1) reported

    @RedRockWesterly @HGSupport Something is going on because this is day 2 of issues for us. I'm not on a 15 minute wait to chat with someone.

  • BillyDann1 Billy Dann (@BillyDann1) reported

    Hey @HGSupport I'm having problems logging into my website - are your servers having issues?

  • RedRockWesterly RedRock (@RedRockWesterly) reported

    @PureElementsCo1 @HGSupport yeah, i got on that chat applet/page, and it kept moving from 15 to 10 back to 15 minutes. @HGSupport won't admit, or worse, doesn't know there's a siteside issue occuring at the moment, it's very frustrating #HostgatorDown

  • StephenArtem Stephen Artem (@StephenArtem) reported

    @drawingporno Thank You and I know. I have seen professional Photographers get axed with just butts. I feel like the Matrix where the octopus things come and hunt your down, and I'm not far off. I actually looked up hosting for adult content and Hostgator was in the top 5 if not 2nd.

    Hostgator sucks 💩

  • malva618 Marcelo Alva C. (@malva618) reported

    @HostGator @WooCommerce I have problems with my server since yesterday. Yesterday I contacted you and you told me that it would be solved soon. But more than 10 hours have passed and the problem continues. This is causing me economic problems. Are you going to make a discount on the service?

  • PatelsWerner Werner G. Patels (@PatelsWerner) reported

    @realbeneverson @HGSupport Yes, all sites are down. Don’t bother with a support request, it’s useless. They’ll figure it out eventually. Unfortunately, the Gator is not exactly the brightest bulb in the chandelier.

  • iamsouravj sourav (@iamsouravj) reported

    Worst hosting experience @hostgatorindia @HostGator tickets not resolved , agent untrained! Not sure how somebody can trust them for website! Shockingly poor #CustomerExperience @HGSupport

  • InterconMessage Intercon Messaging (@InterconMessage) reported

    @HGSupport We are having trouble with our VPS? Is there an outage?

  • blackkingkofi KOFI 🇨🇦 🇹🇹 🇬🇭 (@blackkingkofi) reported

    Hey twitter followers if you thinking about getting a website done do not use @HostGator for your hosting. They always have issues with hosting and they have the shittiest support ever!

  • mitchellclong Moe Long (@mitchellclong) reported

    Anyone else having major @HostGator issues? This is the second time in two days that two of my websites have gone offline

  • PeteMoring Pete Moring (@PeteMoring) reported

    Is #Hostgator/@HGSupport DOWN??? 😵‍💫🤔

  • blackkingkofi KOFI 🇨🇦 🇹🇹 🇬🇭 (@blackkingkofi) reported

    @HostGator you guys have the worst support!

  • writerlane S Lane Porter (@writerlane) reported

    @iamsouravj @hostgatorindia @HostGator We lost so many updates because something bad would happen over there and they'd install an older back up. They'd always say nothing happened but we had file date comparisons to prove it. Finally moved our site away. Ugh. I feel your pain.

  • animationDad Banko (@animationDad) reported

    @dannyjeffers @HostGator Same problem with me #hostgator

  • carloscarmonac Carlos Carmona (@carloscarmonac) reported

    @HGSupport I have 2 vps dropped more than 30 minutes ago. I opened a support ticket and no one responds. It is urgent. I have all my clients without service.

  • FengRonnie Ronnie Feng (@FengRonnie) reported

    @HostGator hosting is down and my email is toast too

  • ZadinaAbayas Zadina Abayas (@ZadinaAbayas) reported

    @HostGator my site has been doing down repeatedly. Your reps sold me packages and I’m still having the same issues. Who is the owner of HostGator???? Is this how your company works???

  • iamsouravj sourav (@iamsouravj) reported

    @hostgatorindia The worst hosting provider! No complaint resolution system! No resolution even after raising multiple complaints and no transparent escalation. Mechanism! #customersrrvice #CustomerExperience @HostGator @HGSupport

  • malva618 Marcelo Alva C. (@malva618) reported

    @diegoaccs @HostGator @WooCommerce I have this problem since yesterday too.

  • PureElementsCo1 Pure Elements Consultancy Ltd (@PureElementsCo1) reported

    @RedRockWesterly @HGSupport It’s doing the same for me. This is my 3rd time contacting them. I understand an outage but why is the Php warnings showing on the front end. On the backend, it’s saying no database repair and everything is fine when it’s not. They kept telling me that it’s down for maintenance.

  • LayDownABrick Ryan (@LayDownABrick) reported

    Hostgator is the worst company on the face of the Earth. Had a great push day, though. Almost makes up for it.

  • alces0alecs alces alces (@alces0alecs) reported

    @HostGator @HGSupport Your service is becoming unreliable. Servers are down again. Support chat is not working. I called and heard it will be 4-8 hours without business email, website or FTP. Im ready to switch. Fix your ****.

  • ozekbulent Bülent Özek (@ozekbulent) reported

    @HostGator @HGSupport Dear @HostGator, I am having an issue with my e-mails. I couldn't send e-mails more or less 36 hours. Could some one help me please ? This is urgent for me. Thank you. Case ID: 40390132

  • ryandouglas0410 Ryan Douglas (@ryandouglas0410) reported

    @jeff_rogerson @HostGator @HGSupport They are having server problems

  • keeksssss Kelly Wright (@keeksssss) reported

    @HostGator The “escalated” support with this company is a joke - TEN days without a website and I can’t even get anyone to call me back. I will NEVER use Hostgator again.

  • AndrsRojasPati1 Andrés Rojas (@AndrsRojasPati1) reported

    @HGSupport But my email is not receiving msgs because of the MX registry, so I can't login
