    @HostGator @HGSupport @SharonRowlands- For 19 days, we are still waiting for our email issues to be resolved fully for the VPS server. Losing Business and credibility from our clients. I created a Twitter profile to contact you as the email/chat option could not solve the issue

  • Hlfwman_Hlfman Ceo Nee 🎓💼💻™️✨ (@Hlfwman_Hlfman) reported

    Need to call Hostgator Tech Support back.

  • spookyboorhodes Spooky Boo Rhodes (@spookyboorhodes) reported

    @WeirdDarkness I think this specific issue with mooresites lies with my network provider. Sometimes they block websites or network IPs that send out a lot of traffic to my IP address and it is highly annoying especially when I have different problems with Hostgator. Isolating the error is :/

  • Jordanovski Nick (@Jordanovski) reported

    @HostGator we are experiencing DNS issues in all of our websites with your domains - any clue whats going on?

  • nhr2k Nigel Rowe (@nhr2k) reported

    @realmumreview @HGSupport @HostGator And my support chat with them just disconnected.. 🙄

  • shoaibhussain Shoaib Hussain (@shoaibhussain) reported

    @DawnYoungArt @HostGator 15 minutes you say? It’s been going down and back up for weeks now!

  • ViP44314496 VP (@ViP44314496) reported

    @HGSupport @HostGator @HGSupport is INVESTIGATING THIS FROM LAST 19 DAYS. We reported this issue on June 30th. You can check tickets/logs/chats. My Spain, Barcelona employees, and Asia employees will log in soon let's see.

  • jons_twit Jon S (@jons_twit) reported

    @HostGator is the emailing system down…. AGAIN?!?

  • SebaCudicio Sebastian Cudicio (@SebaCudicio) reported

    @ElvioEF @HostGator they are vey fast billing you.... I can't get support, can't access the cpanel, nor my emails, chat, nothing. But hey I pay 80 bucks for SiteLock that I don't need nor asked for...

  • luisman75 L.M. (@luisman75) reported

    @HGSupport Me: I want to change my primary domain / Support: I can't, let's create a ticket.....also, Me: I want to reset my hosting plan / Support: I can't, let's create another ticket....WTF! I don't want this service anymore and my domain is a kind of hostage of #Hostgator

  • spookyboorhodes Spooky Boo Rhodes (@spookyboorhodes) reported

    Now I have to deal with xfinity's chat which is equally as problematic as hostgator for a separate issue. They all point fingers at each other for two different problems. People, I'm not an amateur. I've been doing web & It work for 30 years.

  • realmumreview Real Mum Reviews (@realmumreview) reported

    @nhr2k @HGSupport @HostGator It’s down again! Like the bloody hokeycokey!!!!

  • shoaibhussain Shoaib Hussain (@shoaibhussain) reported

    All @HostGator websites and emails down AGAIN! 3 weeks of heavy downtime now!

  • spookyboorhodes Spooky Boo Rhodes (@spookyboorhodes) reported

    waking up in the morning and finding out that your webserver was down for two hours (AGAIN) is not what you want to awaken to @HostGator yet no one there ever answers my questions. the chat is useless.

  • nhr2k Nigel Rowe (@nhr2k) reported

    @realmumreview @HGSupport @HostGator Good God!! Yours was working fully.. 😐 Sigh... And their support chat isn't even loading for me anymore. I spoke too soon!!

  • ViP44314496 VP (@ViP44314496) reported

    @HGSupport Additionally, I have no bandwidth left to argue with you that I should count the days from the time I contacted you on Twitter. Please don't be unethical with a loyal customer. I am not going to DM as I have DM at least 20+ times and 15+emails

  • AmrElsehemy Amr Elsehemy (@AmrElsehemy) reported

    @HostGator All my websites are down!!

  • Zen62com Zennie Abraham CEO ZENNIE62MEDIA INC (@Zen62com) reported

  • szunini1 szunini (@szunini1) reported

    @HostGator Hi i have several problems with a clients site... Yesterday I worked perfectly. But today I can't save, preview, or add anything. The worst thing is that I have to present it.

  • spookyboorhodes Spooky Boo Rhodes (@spookyboorhodes) reported

    @HGSupport I've been through that and the chat system several times. There is never an answer.

  • ktsylvester Katie Sylvester (@ktsylvester) reported

    @HGSupport @HostGator what is going on with email service? I cannot access any of my accounts today directly or via webmail. Beyond appalling the performance of email over the last month from you. Please confirm eta for fix

    What's going on with Hostgator? #Hostgator #Down

  • spookyboorhodes Spooky Boo Rhodes (@spookyboorhodes) reported

    why does hostgator go down all of the time?

  • tashina_k Tashina Knight (@tashina_k) reported

    @HostGator Still can't send email after 9 days down. I get emails from tech support only after escalating via Twitter and even then it doesn't get fixed. Spoken to at least 10 agents. Unacceptable.
