    @MLConklin Yes, I love @HostGator! Customer service has always been helpful whenever I've had a question, and I've never had a problem with the site

  • t4bacademy Teaching 4 Business (@t4bacademy) reported

    @Sebas_706 @HostGator Yep - it would seem so. Again! And no doubt we are all on hold for the same support agent!

  • SteveCinq Steven Cinquegrana (@SteveCinq) reported

    @HGSupport "So ownership can be verified"??? Seriously? All sites on our account are down. That doesn't require verifying a thing. Have you screwed up your DNS?? What?

  • KarmicBliss Karmic Bliss (@KarmicBliss) reported

    @HostGator Dedicated Server with Many Clients ALL Down More than 36 hours is UNACCEPTABLE!

  • GutmanEdward Edward Gutman (@GutmanEdward) reported

    @HostGator are you having data center issues? Was working on my VPS and all the sudden it disappeared. Can't even ping it. Also tried from a remote location.

  • arrucarol Maiza arrucaro (@arrucarol) reported

    @HostGator that really respects its customers, I know this because I have other websites hosted on it so I speak with property. I asked for my refund, they said they deposited it in my account but the money never appeared , I went to the bank for the money the manager said it was

  • roosites Barry Roos (@roosites) reported

    @HostGator Same issue here, can someone at @HostGator explain what is causing the outages?

  • lavanyadeepak Deepak Kumar Vasudevan (@lavanyadeepak) reported

    @HostGator are you systems down again! All of our web and mail servers have just gone offline.

  • davebarish Dave Barish (@davebarish) reported

    @HostGator my server is down and the 5-minute waiting time in the chat hasn't changed in 15 minutes. Help!

  • realLynxNYC Lynx (youtube.com/lynxnyc) 🇺🇦 🇺🇸 (@realLynxNYC) reported

    @HostGator is the worst. All I gotta say. Ran by idiots.

  • elnovio_atomico el novio atomico (@elnovio_atomico) reported

    @HostGator havin troubles? Server is down :(

  • SteveCinq Steven Cinquegrana (@SteveCinq) reported

    @megaloli @JL_Altamira @HostGator They won’t reveal what the issue was because it opens them up to legal liability. I understand that reticence but it doesn’t make for good customer relations.

  • AffiliatesWatch The Affiliate Watch (@AffiliatesWatch) reported

    @LynneKelly @MLConklin @HostGator You definitely want to avoid both HostGator and Bluehost....owned by the same company, same bad service.

  • SteveCinq Steven Cinquegrana (@SteveCinq) reported

    @HostGator We are DOWN AGAIN!!!!!!!!!! IP has reverted to 198.57.244.192. PLEASE GET YOUR ACT TOGETHER!!!

  • KarBelM KarBel Multimedia (@KarBelM) reported

    @HostGator My websites on my account are down, including email.

  • SteveCinq Steven Cinquegrana (@SteveCinq) reported

    @HostGator And, yes, it was a DNS issue as we now have a new IP of 50.87.144.94 ... amateurs/principantes/aficionados!

  • DevNiles DevNiles (@DevNiles) reported

    @HGSupport @HostGator My dedicated box isn't relaying an IP address and can't be pinged. Is #Hostgator experiencing an outage, I'm seeing a lot of people suddenly posting outages with Hostgator... Is there somewhere online I can see your statuses?

  • dreampunchboy Phillip van Coller (@dreampunchboy) reported

    @HostGator @HostGator No response on live chats? No movement on services... Websites down. I signed for your services 24 hours ago and nothing is up. What is going on? How can we get hold of someone if your main channels are ignored?

  • ArnulfoFD Arnulfus (@ArnulfoFD) reported

    @HostGator Hi, I am a customer for more than ten years and this is the first time all my websites are down!! I am freaking out, please explain why this is happening and when it till be fixed!

  • richlaurie Rich Laurie (@richlaurie) reported

    @HostGator So it has been about 24 hours or so. Customers were never proactively notified. Failure of good customer service!

  • CynderHost CynderHost (@CynderHost) reported

    @realLynxNYC @HostGator We're sorry to hear that you've had a bad experience! If you're interested in seeing what exceptional customer service + hosting looks like, we would love to help out. Can we send you a DM?

  • burnslawoffice Harry Burns (@burnslawoffice) reported

    Now a week since my business's email/calendar have been down due to server issues at @HostGator. Over the last week I have spent 10 hours on phone with @HGSupport with no resolution. Today I got an email from @HGSupport saying I will be billed $25 for "backup restoration. Huh?

  • jeff_rogerson Jeff Rogerson (@jeff_rogerson) reported

    @HGSupport unable to get to my site. Any issues I should know about?

  • arrucarol Maiza arrucaro (@arrucarol) reported

    @HostGator hello guys, passing by to help you not to have the same problem as me, don't buy hosting on hostgator, terrible support, slow site, they say that ssl is included in the plan, but actually it is not, my site is with virus, due to this fact, I transferred my website to a platform.

  • t4bacademy Teaching 4 Business (@t4bacademy) reported

    I presume your servers are down again @HostGator - for the second time in a day - third time in a week. We can't even get support through the Portal because that server is offline too. Can anyone help?

  • thepinoylancers Pinoylancers (@thepinoylancers) reported

    @HostGator I have multiple websites down right now. Please help.
