    Someone at @HostGator support told me try using a different internet provider to fix my issue. How ******** would I have a completely different internet provider at my home to switch to? I swear these companies hire idiots for their support

  • _David_Curtis_ david curtis (@_David_Curtis_) reported

    @HostGator your livechat doesn't work and I have an issue I need support with. You have no contact email either, very bad customer service here. Impossible to speak to you without calling.

  • bachchanh HIMANSHU BACHCHAN (@bachchanh) reported

    @HostGator Can you pls advise what is wrong is your software that you are not allowing to transfer the domain? It is you stoop to such levels...i am OK for charity. But atleast pls allow transfer of domains, as this is more of an issue

  • capello_007 Owusu Kwabs (@capello_007) reported

    @HGSupport mails delivery to other account has been very bad. I have a shared host and I have complained about this problem since but it seems its come to remain. You claim you have an issue but why is it taking so long to fix it #hostgator

  • goldenagetravel ✈️ Golden Age Traveling 🌎 (@goldenagetravel) reported

    PSA: @HostGator - HOST GATOR SUCKS!!!! BEEN ON THE PHONE AND ON HOLD FOR 9.5 HOURS TODAY AND STILL NOT WORKING!!! AVOID AT ALL COST - THEY DON'T CARE ABOUT THEIR SERVERS OR CUSTOMERS. CONSTANTLY DOWN! @HGSupport

  • Baconpa29631251 Baconpancake (@Baconpa29631251) reported

    @HostGator great customer support, ask a question they disconnect. Been with yall for years. #byebye Switching to @DreamHost today. Jump ship today to avoid the BS tomorrow.

  • NeumieAwards Neumie Awards (@NeumieAwards) reported

    @HostGator @HGSupport the agent says all VPNs are down across the world? And this is 90 minutes so far? Where's a fix!?

  • jjrruiz Juan José Ruiz (@jjrruiz) reported

    @HostGator #phishing on your servers, which was reported on November 21, is still active: .pe.novadigio .com/ .pe.novadigio .com/login Peruvian proxy + Android device are required or it redirects to the official site Please remove it

  • GoddessCandika Goddess Candika (@GoddessCandika) reported

    Does anyone have any good hosting recommendations? I am up to here with Hostgator - their support is just a big pile of 💩these days

  • Fankle Dougie Kelly (@Fankle) reported

    @MichelleOwen7 I was sorry to read that you are still having issues from the after effects of HG. I hope you are as well as possible. I sent a small donation to Tommy's, but should I have sent it to hgsupport instead?

  • dailydirtnap Jared Dillian (@dailydirtnap) reported

    @HGSupport @NeumieAwards @HostGator This is a big issue for my business. Please get it fixed

  • Ssh_Just_Buy Ssh Just Buy (@Ssh_Just_Buy) reported

    Never buy Domain with @HostGator. If you don't buy privacy for extra $10 (which is $3-4 on others), right after, your phone will get 10-30 calls everyday from call centers who offers you web services, while @HGSupport hang-up on your face.

  • Benitez2Ines ines benitez (@Benitez2Ines) reported

    @TonathiuVargas1 @HostGator Hello, is your problem resolved?

  • devinlosborne Devin Osborne (@devinlosborne) reported

    @Baconpa29631251 @HostGator @DreamHost Lol. I have the same issue.

    @HostGator you guys have the WORST support!

  • AzDocMur1 AzDocMur1 (@AzDocMur1) reported

    @HGSupport thanks, that site is fine. I'm trying to update 60 different websites and for some reason I keep getting ftp failed errors, but after 10 mins they clear, so am going to work with that. Thanks, but dms are a pain and getting to support by phone is as well. Have a great one!

  • capello_007 Owusu Kwabs (@capello_007) reported

    What is happening @HostGator emails on shared host dont get delivered on time. A very bad delay time and it looks like its staying. Do something about it as I have been really disappointed in your services getting to the close of the year.

  • NeumieAwards Neumie Awards (@NeumieAwards) reported

    @HGSupport @HostGator It does not seem you need more information to take a look, since it is a global issue with all your VPS customers

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

    Damn Hostgator has the worst service

  • HGSupport HostGator Support (@HGSupport) reported

    @blackkingkofi @HostGator If you are experiencing an issue, we want to help. Send us a DM with your accounting info so we can look into it.
