Hostgator Issues Reports

Latest outage, problems and issue reports in social media:

  • FabDM75 Fab (@FabDM75) reported

    @HostGator I'd expect at least a month refund. I'm having so many issues with customers, some will leave my service due to these interruptions

  • SeamanPandita Pandita (@SeamanPandita) reported

    @hostgator @HGSupport Servers down? WHM inaccessible, 10 sites down a clients calling - what's going on? How about an update instead of radio silence?

  • randychmm Randy Angelo Chmm (@randychmm) reported

    @HostGator This is unacceptable! We have over 20 clients that do not have access to their websites or emails and it seems that everyone has been encountering the same issues. This is NOT cool or acceptable. I can't have this happen repeatedly and am looking into other hosting solutions.

  • EnchantedMeat Enchanted Meat (@EnchantedMeat) reported

    @HostGator @EveryChildMatt This is definitively the case. If not, why are your hold times for tech support 99 minutes? We cannot access any email. What is going on? What is the ETA on a fix?

  • ImageVillage Image Village (@ImageVillage) reported

    @HostGator So you have been saying for weeks, this continues to happen, you do not compensate your customers, meanwhile thousands and thousands of sites go down and all you do is shutdown your support chat and use ridiculous excuses as to why this keeps happening.

  • valenzze Jorge Valencia (@valenzze) reported

    @HostGator I have the same issue with my servers 😖

  • randychmm Randy Angelo Chmm (@randychmm) reported

    @HostGator This is unacceptable! I have over 30 clients that do not have access to their websites or emails and it seems that everyone has been encountering the same issues. This is NOT cool or acceptable. I can't have this happen repeatedly and am looking into other hosting solutions.

  • EveryChildMatt Crypto Billionaire Club (@EveryChildMatt) reported

    @HostGator You are joking I guess.. websites, emails, servers, reseller access, chat support all is down ..you guys can’t even handle chat inquiries at the moment based on how many pings you are getting. In last one hour thousands reported you down on downdetector ..

  • PngImgCom Pngimg.com (@PngImgCom) reported

    @HostGator @HGSupport Hey! Our server is down! What's going on?

  • IdentiGrafica Yao Ayala (@IdentiGrafica) reported

    @HostGator Servers are down, can't access any of the sites. Please attend support. Nobody answers.

  • EnchantedMeat Enchanted Meat (@EnchantedMeat) reported

    @HGSupport @IdentiGrafica Sorry to intrude on this thread, but I need to find out what is going on and what the ETA is on a fix? Our emails are not working and the website won;t load. Seems like this is has been going on since very early this morning. Your users would appreciate a little clarity.

  • Brandon_Connell Brandon Connell (@Brandon_Connell) reported

  • viva_trista Trista Lauritsen (@viva_trista) reported

    @HGSupport can you please let me know the status of my server? My client's emails and website have been down for over 2 hours.

  • EveryChildMatt Crypto Billionaire Club (@EveryChildMatt) reported

    @HostGator Whole thing is down. Your servers, Cpanels, websites all of it. Are you guys trying to kill your brand? Those who are running their businesses on your servers aren’t going to trust you no more.

  • Brandon_Connell Brandon Connell (@Brandon_Connell) reported

    @skystracloud Why are you replying to everyone? You are not hostgator support.

  • david_giorgi David R. Giorgi (@david_giorgi) reported

    @HostGator @EveryChildMatt Same here. Everything down. Websites, cpanel, WHM, webmail. I have around 50 clients on my reseller account. It's going to be a long stessfull day

  • R1Creative R1 Creative (@R1Creative) reported

    @HostGator THIRD TIME in less than 1 month, with poor support and zero communication from HostGator. Unacceptable for an agency offering reseller hosting. We're considering moving our clients off HostGator.

  • designbuildwork designbuildwork (@designbuildwork) reported

    @yatix25 @HostGator @HGSupport One of my dedicated servers is down and not accessible. Tried calling but there is a ‘89 minute’ wait in the queue. What is going on and a simple outage notification would help.

  • EveryChildMatt Crypto Billionaire Club (@EveryChildMatt) reported

    @HostGator While thing is down.. all the servers on HG, Cpanels, emails and websites. It makes us wonder you guys had to jo back up plans for contingency like this. Folks hosting crypto servers through you are ruined..

  • viva_trista Trista Lauritsen (@viva_trista) reported

    @HostGator Not acceptable. Client's emails and websites have been down for over 2 hours.

  • nikosdr7 Nikos Drakopoulos (@nikosdr7) reported

    @HostGator Yup everything is down 😫

  • alicraw Ali 🇺🇦😷🐻⬇ (@alicraw) reported

    I see I am not the only one with a @Hostgator problem! @HGSupport How's my expedited case coming? How can anyone do business like this. UNNACCEPTABLE.

  • ingmeal Mosho (@ingmeal) reported from Benito Juarez, Ciudad de México

    @HostGator I have a reseller aluminum account and all my websites are down. I have been waiting on the support queue for over 25 minutes and still not being attended. What is going on???

  • ImageVillage Image Village (@ImageVillage) reported

    @HostGator Don't need to think abut protecting yur website when no-one can access it because it keeps going down.

  • HGSupport HostGator Support (@HGSupport) reported

    @Brandon_Connell @HostGator Hello Brandon. Would you mind DMing your domain? Our support team queue has suddenly influxed due to a wide spread issue being reported from multiple locations. We apologize for the delay.
