    @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 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?

  • tomtolkien Tom Tolkien (@tomtolkien) reported

    @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!

    Thanks @HostGator for wasting my entire morning. You scheduled an appointment for a phone design and tech support call today 8:30A to 10:30A. I cleared the morning to make it happen. Nothing. Crickets. This is try number 3. Literally trying to hand people money. And they fail.

  • 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.

  • 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

  • secb0t secb0t (@secb0t) reported

    @bluehost @HostGator We, of course, report it there every time. Reaction times are massively high and sadly sometimes no takedown takes place. So please give your poor abuse team more resources.

  • GenSandwich Kristen Bedard (@GenSandwich) reported

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

    @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

    @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.

    @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.
