  @HostGator, I’ve been stuck in endless chatbot loops trying to cancel Titan Email I never signed up for. No option to cancel, no real support. I’m a paying customer. I want it cancelled & a refund ASAP. No transparency on your site.

• FastCow.com (@fastcowhosting) reported 11 minutes ago

  @HGSupport Ouch, looks like we hit a nerve. Maybe if you guys replied to him quicker like you tweeted us instead of having him cry for help for 7 days might do the trick? Just 2 cents from us ;)

  @HostGator deleted MANY of my posts on my personal blogs. Not me. Hostgator!!! Now, they won't restore them unless I pay them to do it. I've been a customer for 20 years or more. Never thought I would see the day that they would be so blatantly crooked. If you use Hostgator, you have to pay for them to back up your blog or pay a third party. Or you have to copy everything on your site. BlueHost is cheaper, backs up every day, charges nothing extra to do it and restores for no charge. What happened to @HostGator?????

  @AIandDesign @HostGator I never expected her Pretty Little Liars arc but here we are 💀

• Eagins Media (@eaginsmedia) reported 17 minutes ago

• Joe Youngblood - SEO, Futurology, AI, Marketing (@YoungbloodJoe) reported 23 minutes ago

  Rocketship SEO Plugin: We have identified a memory handling issue with our plugin that appears to largely impact Yoast users on Bluehost (though not HostGator which is the same company). in 100% of cases we've investigated the issue goes away in a few hours as memory used subsides. You might get an error immediately after activating the plugin that says there has been a critical error on the site. Your site and Admin area are fine, this is the memory issue manifesting itself. You might also get a report emailed by WordPress saying the issue was caused by @Yoast using too much memory, but it is our plugin causing the problem not Yoast. Our best guess at the moment is that this error is caused by our compatibility settings with Yoast which is performed automatically upon install and activation. We are looking at making this process more efficient and improving our compatibility so sites in shared environments like Bluehost do not encounter this issue.

  @HGSupport your team was not here to help! their response to me was to hire you instead of fixing my problem - I have requested my $$ back.

  Catwatchful’s breach exposed thousands of victim and customer records in July 2025, with attackers leaking photos, locations, and messages. Operators bypassed the first shutdown by migrating APIs to HostGator—demonstrating how stalkerware survives by shifting infrastructure faster than hosts can react. Google only started flagging the app with Play Protect after TechCrunch’s publication, and the spyware’s operators relaunched service within days. This cycle shows tech platforms can barely keep up when stalkerware pivots, and just about every stalkerware provider eventually leaks all their data.

  Hosting a website shouldn’t cost a fortune. With @hostgator, you get: Unlimited storage & bandwidth Free domain & SSL certificate 24/7 support Starting at just $2.95/month

• Zak Kann (Fractional CTO) (@zrkann) reported 33 minutes ago

  @FakeUncleNemo Agree generally, but not with Hostgator. EIG subsidiaries (Hostgator, Bluehost, etc) lure people in with cheap intro rates but they quickly raise the prices, their defaults are slow and often have security vulnerabilities, and their customer support, well, I'm not sure it exists.

• Eduardo Aspe M. (@easpem) reported 33 minutes ago

  @HGSupport This is a cry for help. Since 7 days ago 2 Websites hosted on HG have been having outages for 20+ min on average. I already reported this many times to HG Support staff case id INC1132927. The say it will be fixed but still happens.

• Vasudevan M.R. (@VasudevanMR) reported 33 minutes ago

  @hostgatorindia @HGSupport My emails have been blocked apparently because my IP address has been flagged. But I use a dynamic IP allotted by my ISP @airtelindia . I have no control over the IP. There is no way for me to resolve the issue. Absolutely pathetic.

• CENSORED BY T!!TTER (@PeterVadala) reported 34 minutes ago

  @HostGator #SSL errors for multiple sites. Please get to the bottom of it. All we did was deactivate some outdated plugins.
