  • MissMaryMcInOR Mary Mc (@MissMaryMcInOR) reported

    @HGSupport Your chat support doesn't work at all. My site has been down for days now. I called your tech support a few days ago, they couldn't fix it and I was promised an email update. Haven't heard a thing. I rely on my site for my income. HELP!!!

  • devoursnowbank devourer snowbank (@devoursnowbank) reported

    @HGSupport yes correct ( sloppy answer) I am asking you where I can go to see your prices etc that answer was one of the most useless support answers ever

  • NeadReport ɳeaƌЯeporʈ (@NeadReport) reported

    @rexthetvterrier @HostGator I've been using ICDsoft since ~2005. Tech support questions often answered in a minute or two.

  • sisalgirl Happy Hibernating Hermit Marie Wh*te (@sisalgirl) reported

    @rexthetvterrier @HostGator 🙄 Honestly, you'd think some people never heard of good customer service. And the thing is, it almost always costs the company *nothing*. 😒

  • CrownMarketers Crown Marketers (@CrownMarketers) reported

    @HostGator Are your servers down or something?

  • devoursnowbank devourer snowbank (@devoursnowbank) reported

    Are then any Hosting sites out there that can advise of the prices for new & renewals cheers @HostGator doesn't wanna help!

  • sebremm SEB (@sebremm) reported

    @rexthetvterrier @HostGator So sorry you’ve experienced such horrible service from them. 😢

  • cbwebster Dog lovin’ Oma (@cbwebster) reported

    @rexthetvterrier @HostGator I have six websites on @GoDaddy and have always had great customer service.

  • CassieMarie415 cassie415 (@CassieMarie415) reported

    @rexthetvterrier @HostGator @HGSupport 🤬 Sadly, customer service is dead.

  • rexthetvterrier Rex the TV Terrier ™ (@rexthetvterrier) reported

    @NeadReport @HostGator Oh, they answer. But they lie and don't fix the problem over at @HostGator

  • HushWork HushWork (@HushWork) reported

    @NosnasMarketing @skystracloud Forget about slow.. ALL of my sites on @HostGator won't even load! Uptime Guarantee👀

  • NosnasMarketing Nosnas Marketing (@NosnasMarketing) reported

    @HGSupport @OhRheally This was not mentioned to me or other users when we reported it. Other user had 13 sites down.

  • Yevo_a Yevo (@Yevo_a) reported

    @HGSupport are you aware of the server issues your having a lot of outages reported

  • HushWork HushWork (@HushWork) reported

    @NosnasMarketing @HGSupport Yep, 13 sites ALL down. WHM / Cpanels won't even load.

  • Un_tal_Maynor Maynor (@Un_tal_Maynor) reported

    @mrhouseplant @TVBrasil_me @HostGator Did they solve the problem ?

  • MTinydancer Mittens&TinyDancer (@MTinydancer) reported

    @rexthetvterrier @HostGator Had similar very lengthy so-called customer svc experiences via phone which were less than favorable (to put in mildly 😱); but once we "bit*hed" vociferously on @Twitter we got brisk resolution.

  • rexthetvterrier Rex the TV Terrier ™ (@rexthetvterrier) reported

    @HGSupport And more lies 🙄 Worst Company Ever

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

    @HostGator you guys are the worst. Anyone else thinking about switching host services? If so, who do you suggest? Has anyone used @bluehost? How hard is it to migrate and keep the same domain name? #bluehost do you do migration?

  • Beruud Jay Zippo (@Beruud) reported

    @HostGator @HGSupport OK, I am guessing you are having serious issues. My one site just threw out a 500 error and the other one took 3 minutes to load. I am on Chat; it says talk in 5, but its been 7 minutes and nothing has changed, including the timer. #notsurprised

  • NosnasMarketing Nosnas Marketing (@NosnasMarketing) reported

    @HushWork @HGSupport Are you down too? Still not functioning correctly for us. Our website and clients' website.

  • sewing848 Scott Ewing (@sewing848) reported

    @PhoenixMantis Hi. So you have emailed me 9 times repeatedly asking for money after you identified a minor problem with our email setup. I contacted HostGator and they fixed the problem in about 2 minutes. If you are a "white hat" why are you demanding "rewards" for your good deeds?

  • Beruud Jay Zippo (@Beruud) reported

    @HGSupport I'm just bitter because I haven't pulled my sites from HG yet. Angry at my laziness. So, you, personally, I don't have any problems with, its the Walmart grade hosting company you work for. Hoping the sites can last until the next billing cycle, so I can find a better hoster.

  • NosnasMarketing Nosnas Marketing (@NosnasMarketing) reported

    @skystracloud I spoke with Mark before. Simply migrate me over at no cost and you got a customer. Honor what I have already paid @hostgator and let's plan a migration over. Let me know by email what you think.

  • TVBrasil_me HDGamesTV (@TVBrasil_me) reported

    @HostGator Hostagator down?

  • beli0135 Voxin 🇧🇷🇷🇸♏ (@beli0135) reported

    @PovilasKorop App does not start, gives 404. It should only load default welcome (didn't altered it yet). At 1st I thought it was .htaccess, but it is not. In local XAMPP works OK. I wonder was the google's recaptcha on login screen that makes problems (**** server is at Hostgator).

  • St3llard Stellar (@St3llard) reported

    Anyone else having issues with servers at @HostGator?

  • MissMaryMcInOR Mary Mc (@MissMaryMcInOR) reported

    @HostGator Your chat support doesn't work at all. My site has been down for days now. I called your tech support a few days ago, they couldn't fix it and I was promised an email update. Haven't heard a thing. I rely on my site for my income. HELP!!! (a deep breath won't!)

  • PacheduZW Team Pachedu (@PacheduZW) reported

    @Myckye @Potraz_zw This is incorrect. We also do these things regularly using Hostgator, Godaddy, Wix, Blehost, Dreamhost, Namecheap and never have any issues yet these are big US companies. In any case, most Zimbabwean websites are secured. This is just a case of incompetence and nothing else.

  • fbgchase Football Perspective (@fbgchase) reported

    @FO_ASchatz yeah, having some real trouble with Hostgator. I am going to need to get someone to help redesign the site. Any suggestions would be welcome!

  • Bil9255 Muhammad Bilal Khan (@Bil9255) reported

    @HostGator two years back I left hostgator hosting services because of bad customer support and after two years i started using your services again, but i feel the customer support is still the same , nothing change .
