  • olivia_harmony1 ❤️Olivia.ONE | Harmony ONE Validator💙 (@olivia_harmony1) reported

    @GoDaddy Your incapable, useless and piece of sh!t server has my website down since last 3 days. I’m moving to @HostGator as soon as I can back up my files.

  • HostGatorFan9 Hostga tor (@HostGatorFan9) reported

    It's sad that HostGator Never Launched

  • tomy_mad MAD TOMY +🔞 (@tomy_mad) reported

    @HGSupport It seems down to me, it's also mentionned on your forum. Who are you kidding? None of my websites are working and I do not store any backup files on your servers although I have unlimited data. Also no one contacted me.

  • DPVirtualSol Virtual Solutions LLC (@DPVirtualSol) reported

    @CafeBeautyBlog I’ve used BigScoots for the past 7-8 years. Their customer service is the best of any I’ve used. (1&1 and HostGator were both atrocious.)

  • ZaidIrfanKhan Zaid (@ZaidIrfanKhan) reported

    man i m tripping fr, free hosting and SSL of custom domain with continuous deployment by @Netlify. damn why i didn't avail this instead went for Hostgator for no reason

  • tomy_mad MAD TOMY +🔞 (@tomy_mad) reported

    @HostGator Why are your servers down and why aren’t you being honest about it?

  • FGOABORG I need to come up with a clever name (@FGOABORG) reported

    @Kathy_Darling It's shocking how sometimes stuff just flat out doesn't work that absolutely should. Frustrating. I learned at HostGator that sometimes stuff just breaks. Also, that sometimes your fix works when by all rights it shouldn't.

  • ValeriaMilan13 Valeria Milan (@ValeriaMilan13) reported

    @HGSupport Our SIDE is down and I want to know when it is going to be working again.

    @Kingsmob2 @im_just_laur My parents paid for the hosting on, like, hostgator after 2002 and I don't know who before. I made mine in HoTMetaL with a combination of wysiwig editing and rudimentary HTML programming. It wasn't very good, but it wasn't awful, either.

    @ECMcLaughlin @bluehost Yeah, Blue Host and any hosting company under the EIG umbrella (HostGator included) = Bad News.

  • LJWP2021 LJWP 2021 (@LJWP2021) reported

    @SecondContArmy @JavierGoya7 I just set up a domain through Hostgator and make as many emails based on that domain directly. It keeps you in control with a more personalized email address and not reliant on Big Tech services. All you have to do is find an available domain name and they can’t shut it down.

    @HostGator @HGSupport REF: #36418884 and #36415531 My website has now been down for 3 days and I am not receiving a very good service from Hostgator in getting the issues resolved. Can someone please fix the problems highlighted in the above 2 references? Thank you.

    @HGSupport my site keeps going down too. Problems?

  • adamouri Ali (@adamouri) reported

    @GoDaddy Never purchase any domain from this company, what they don’t tell you that 1st year is cheap … next year and on they charge you close to 36$ just to keep the domaine … so don’t fall in the trap! Look for other alternatives like BlueHost or HostGator the are much better.

    @NancyCWalker @HostGator I know a disconnection can be frustrating, but please send me a DM, I'd like to help.

  • tomtolkien Tom Tolkien (@tomtolkien) reported

    @HGSupport Your customer support agent just tried to charge my $37.50 to find out why your server removed my email account. Fraud? Scam? This is beyond a joke. I paid you over $600 for hosting this year. Never again.

    @HGSupport can you please help me with advertising my new website so it gains traffic

  • germainwicky Germain Wickramasinghe (@germainwicky) reported

    @HostGator I am trying to resolve my mail problem via your chat, it is never solved since last Friday. I have paid and taken the email plan from you and this is becoming very frustrating. Can some act professional and help me out?

    @sarahebourne @elizhargrave It's an issue with certain wireless carriers. If you try on wifi, it should work. @HGSupport has not been able to diagnose the issue

  • NancyCWalker Nancy C. Walker 📑📚📷 (@NancyCWalker) reported

    @HostGator @HGSupport I went to you for help and your tech did the equivalent of hang up on me. Now you locked me out of my account. This is not ok! #CustomerServiceProblems #BadBuisness

    @HGSupport 10 years worth of emails on two accounts have vanished from my hosting this morning and your support is not being helpful in any way. I need to access my emails! I can't even login to webmail!
