    @HostGator Apparently you migrating me to a new server. Why did you not let me know? Why have my sites been DOWN for days now? This is not the service I'm used to with you. My clients are complaining. Do you NOT care about your customers anymore? @HGSupport @NewfoldDigital #FAIL

    Patrick D'appollonio (@Marlex) reported

    @HostGator my father-in-law almost got scammed/identity-theft'd by 2 web properties hosted in your company, and almost being part of a money laundering scheme. We're reporting it to the police, but is there any place to report them to you directly so they can be taken down?

    @marouane_rhafli @HostGator Our company site went offline today & has been down all day. No warning, no info, just repeated excuses about "planned" maintenance. It's not planned if you don't inform the customers ahead of time. Refusal to do anything. Meanwhile, we are out of jobs. #consequences #hostgator

    I am not sure why the site @HostGator is so horribly slow. I am now in the process of transferring all of my domains over to @GoDaddy.

  • racassel
    Rick Cassel (@racassel) reported

    @HostGator @HGSupport Can you please help me with one site in my reseller account. Support is telling me it is due to migration. All my other acts work, but this one has simply gone missng.

  • racassel
    Rick Cassel (@racassel) reported

    @HostGator @RSSDMG I am in the same boat, and it is sinking. Tech support just keeps saying the same thing over and over. "I'm so sorry you were unaware of the migration...Yesterday, to be fixed in 4 hours. Just now, stated 24 to 48 hours to get a response. HELP

    @GoDaddy @GoDaddyHelp @HostGator Pathetic service by GoDaddy I have my email id phone number linked but still not able to login. 2 factor authentication never sends OTP. They create multiple customer ID with same email id and create login issue. Not able to login to domain acnt.

    Greg Redd (@ReddWrite) reported

    Been trying to get @HostGator’s @HGSupport to tell me why I cannot access the settings for my Primary Domain in my Customer Portal for over a month now. “There was an error loading this domain. Please try again later or contact support for assistance.” Utterly useless.

    @HushWork @HostGator Hey! That doesn't sound fun at all. We would never leave you hanging like that -- we've got some of the best customer support in the business. If you're open to switching, we would love to show you what exceptional service looks like. Can we DM you some more info?

    @KalabashT @WarpOneTravel @HostGator Yup - 11 years here, 132 sites were down without warning. That is about 120 business owners pissed and losing money every minute it was down. They do not care for our losses one bit.

    @HostGator - planned but unannounced server migration has taken all my websites down since 12:45 ET today - 4.5 hours of service interruption with no indication from support on when it will be finished. Unacceptable!

    @donatj yeah. i redid a website for a non prof and the old hosting finally got shut down. but i had no idea hostgator was doing email too that made no sense to me. and all the alternatives pretty sure cost more than the AIO hostgator package did.
