    @HostGator @HGSupport Today makes six days without access to my server and three revenue generating sites. No new sales, no access to email will lead to customer (revenue) loss. Zero updates and appears no progress being made. The class-action law firms are circling. Complete incompetence on display.

    @HGSupport @NewfoldDigital I do not mean to offend, but what happened was and is you have some folks who may be well-meaning, but do not understand what they're doing. Too often someone at HG makes changes to my back-end server that I did not authorize. This has been problem for the last 3 years. STOP IT. Make sure to allow the owner-admin, er, me, to approve any changes before they're made. Do not just DO them.

    Hey @HGSupport Jyothi is an admin who tries to trick me rather than help me. You need to take him off work duty because he's not helping people.

    Follow Me On GETTR Instead. I’m @AmericasMansMan (@PeterVadala) reported

    I asked support to escalate it after an hour and a half where they attempted to fix it but couldn’t, and took over an hour to reset the server after which it promptly crashed again. @hostgator

    At 21 I started a web hosting company for under $500. - rented a server from HostGator - studied their "get your first 1,000 customers" ebook like scripture - pitched people in forums Shocker: nobody wanted web hosting from a college kid. So I changed the offer. I started selling websites instead. New website owners have the problem of "Where do I host this?" I would bundle the hosting as part of the website build in exchange for putting their credit card on file for next year. I didn't realize it at the time, but this is when I learned about the 'Front Doors' and 'Back Doors'. It's easy to fool yourself when researching a business or competitor when all you can see is their 'Front Door'. The offer on your competitor's website may look too good to be true and you may wonder how can they possibly do that? They have a 'Back Door' offer that must offset it and then some. You usually can't see it from the outside.

    @HostGator Looks like you all have been hacked again. Duplicated records DKIM DMARC SPF! When will you fix this?! @HGSupport

    @HostGator @NewfoldDigital The overarching point is after 15 years and me choosing multiple years of service from you why is it that you simply cannot prorate the refund on unused time?

  • TrueSignalMedia
    True Signal Media (@TrueSignalMedia) reported

    Hey @HostGator — your “Live Chat” and “Support” links loop back to your own help page. I’ve got a valid SSL installed, DNS and Cloudflare set up correctly, but my site’s stuck in an HTTPS redirect loop (ERR_TOO_MANY_REDIRECTS). Your backend needs to resync the SSL vhost or restart Apache. Any chance someone competent can help me out today?

  • DanMicovic
    Daniel Micovic (@DanMicovic) reported

    @HGSupport @HostGator week 2 of server being down and zero access to my sites or emails. Escalated support has stopped responding, no updates on open tickets and zero responses from support here. Has @HostGator given up?

    @HGSupport WTF is going on?

  • JordanBlum87
    Jordan Blum🤘 (@JordanBlum87) reported

    Can any tech people help? We use Outlook for The Bookends Review and once a week, it'll stop sending and receiving mail because "503 Valid RCPT command must precede DATA." Then, I'll delete the emails we have in the HostGator CP and it'll work again. Any ideas how to fix?

    Rad Web Hosting (@RadWebHosting) reported

    @ZennieAbraham62 @HGSupport A better question is why does this process even require support, or for you to request it, then escalate your request? Automated SSL installs, renewals and replacements at $0 for life or ****!!!

  • DanMicovic
    Daniel Micovic (@DanMicovic) reported

    @HGSupport @HostGator received an email from "escalated support" that my ticket has been closed, but nothing has been done to bring my server and sites back. Please advise: The case # ACOM-3384 you are responding to has been closed.

    Mehmet (@mettersoy) reported

    HostGator support eventually confirmed it: “All outbound connections are blocked.” Yes. The server could not make outbound HTTPS requests (port 443). If you’re a dev, you already know: That breaks EVERYTHING.

  • DanMicovic
    Daniel Micovic (@DanMicovic) reported

    @HGSupport @HostGator Nothing is connecting. No cPanel or WHM access, sites and email still down.
