Hostgator Issues Reports

Latest outage, problems and issue reports in social media:

  • gabygalaxyxx Gaby Galaxy (@gabygalaxyxx) reported

    @datemialaurent I used hostgator and WordPress but I didn't like hostgator support at all. They're adult friendly though and cheap for the first few years if you pay up front that wasn't for a work website though it was for a blog

  • JamarDawson Jamar Dawson, MBA (@JamarDawson) reported

    @HostGator I think I figured out the issue. The new @WordPress version is incompatible with multiple themes. I'm correcting it site by site now.

  • BrandBillboard BrandBillboard (@BrandBillboard) reported

    @HGSupport, Your business hosting plan support is a royal mess and an exercise in frustration. I will no longer recommend it to anyone and regret doing so for my clients. And your chatbot is ridiculous - repeats the same drivel over and over.

  • lorenphotos Loren Fisher (@lorenphotos) reported

    Another 6 hours with HostGator tech support. That makes 41 hours in the last 3 weeks. I can’t get sites up long enough to move to a new host.

  • chonkarimbi cho (@chonkarimbi) reported

    @HGSupport Is there an issue, I have been trying to get customer support for over 2 days now in vain, it used to be instant

  • YandrakirtashCR Yandrakirtash (@YandrakirtashCR) reported

    @HGSupport @HostGator I chated with support, they could not resolve my problem so I was told that an admin will email me, no one did, this was almost 2 weeks ago...

  • moseskinuthia18 moses kinuthia (@moseskinuthia18) reported

    @HGSupport 4 to 6 weeks are over and your support is blocking seems this scam is real they did not refund

  • Zen62com Zennie Abraham CEO ZENNIE62MEDIA INC #CES2023 (@Zen62com) reported

    So I press HostGator Live Chat, and get no one. @HostGator @HGSupport I need help. One of your admins screwed up my system.

  • obsvdrj O Observador 🇧🇷❄ (@obsvdrj) reported

    @Chakib54701049 @alidixon @rankmathseo In two different lodgings, the same problem is happening here in Brazil. I work with Hostinger and Hostgator

  • whatbitchinbout whatyoubitchingabout.com (@whatbitchinbout) reported

    @HostGator You want my websites.. @hostinger does not.. They currently have them.. Yet I can not get any support as to an email issue.. @bluehost does not They will not answer the phone..

  • HFandHomework Natalie 😷 (@HFandHomework) reported

    @BalconyMR @HGSupport I just had a "support" person mansplaining to me and he claimed there were no supervisors available to talk to. Apparently, if a shared server got hacked all the sites it hosted would be DOWN. Seriously? (Mine keeps getting files injected, and I cannot find the source).

  • charafmrah Charaf Mrah (@charafmrah) reported

    @terroirartisans Hostinger used to be terrible but seems like they got better in the last 2 years from ppl recommending them. Hostgator is mid at best but at least they have good support compared to other big providers.

  • HGSupport HostGator Support (@HGSupport) reported

    @YandrakirtashCR @HostGator @YandrakirtashCR It sounds like maybe your browser or network is having issues as our chat is currently functioning and working for others. You may want to try clearing your cache or using a different device to connect.

    @HostGator I have DMd the support account.

  • eosunknown Stan Bezusov (@eosunknown) reported

    @HostGator Case ID OEML-493990, no reply since Friday, been chatting and calling you guys for three days to no avail :-( please DM me if you can help

  • AbduljalilSaleh Abduljalil AlMudhari عبدالجليل المضري (@AbduljalilSaleh) reported

    @HGSupport Still I have problem since one week, and not fixed until now, finally i understand that HostGator support team are not professional and the company is failure. this is some tickets which is still opened Ticket: 2167694 , 2167913 @HostGator @GreenHostgator

  • BalconyMR Jim Sullivan (@BalconyMR) reported

    @HGSupport It's happened several times. I think it's what some of your guys do. I hired an IT consultant to help. He said this: "FYI, @HGSupport is not as good as they used to be. I've had 3 long conversations...but they still can't solve anything."

  • lorenphotos Loren Fisher (@lorenphotos) reported

    Stay away from HostGator, the worst website hosting company

  • JamarDawson Jamar Dawson, MBA (@JamarDawson) reported

    Anybody know if the @HostGator servers are down? All my sites are giving me a 'critical error' message.

  • QqqToad Sam...Sam......Sam...... (@QqqToad) reported

    @HGSupport I just bought a Hostgator Wordpress account and It's not working. I keep getting a 'There has been a critical error on this website'. When I click the 'Start Live Chat' button that's not working either. Starting to get a bit frustrated.

  • Zen62com Zennie Abraham CEO ZENNIE62MEDIA INC #CES2023 (@Zen62com) reported

  • opmstreams HTTP://OPMSTREAMS.LIVE (@opmstreams) reported

    @HGSupport I am the absolute WORST service from Hostgator. Do not host there ever. They take $200.00 and provide excuses + BULLSHIT service for my 4 website(s) that are down. Supv. Call me! 980.289.8806..

  • TFA3000_Web TFA3000 (@TFA3000_Web) reported

    @HGSupport Really getting frustrated with the lack of support when I have had multiple tickets in the last week escalated w/ no response :(

  • YandrakirtashCR Yandrakirtash (@YandrakirtashCR) reported

    I had to open multiple support tickets and I was told the admins will contact me, no one did. Now im trying to open a live chat with support and it just reloads the page? Are you kidding me? @HGSupport @HostGator

  • BalconyMR Jim Sullivan (@BalconyMR) reported

    Was left on hold with @HostGator support for more than an hour. Seems to be a thing. They can't figure something out and the tech ghosts you.
