jigsaw kloud (@jigsawkloud) reported@ZKDID_ Never used Hostgator, so I have no point of reference. I switched from SiteGround as their renewal prices just kept increasing. Hoping to eventually switch to decentralised hosting. Keeping an eye on @IagonOfficial
-
HostGator Support (@HGSupport) reported@academicoweb @HostGator We hear you that you are having trouble with the auth code and have concerns about the price and specs of your hosting plan. Repeatedly mentioning us in posts and replies keeps us going through notifications instead of being able to help you. Hence, "spam." Our DMs are open.

Shailesh Patel (@Shaileshhp46) reported@BigRock after Hostgator migrated to Bigrock, pathetic service. Support numbers never works. No service support. Many glitches. Should not take responsibility which you can not deliver
-
OkYall (@okyall55) reported@Hostgator, unbeknownst to me, no longer provide, free backups. Had I known this, I certainly would have moved my blog much, much sooner to @BlueHost who provides it DAILY for a free with a $0 restore fee. You have lost your customer service score but your bottom line may have increased TEMPORARILY. Now that I've been forced to review my choice of hosting services for all my blogs and websites, I also have learned that they have almost 10 points higher ratings than you and are a fraction of how much you charge. Why on earth would anybody pay more, get less, and risk loss? Since I have suffered from your lack of customer care, I will be moving my blogs. Do not touch them again until I have gotten all of my content removed
-
I REFUSE (@seanrogers8) reported@HGSupport @HostGator @spamhaus Your tech support sucks. They have been working on it for 2 days. My company email still doesn't work!! If your employees were competent your service would work
-
Annie 🍁 Freedom Enthusiast (@westcoastgirl1) reported@HGSupport my sites are down because of your poor service over 24hours now. I have moved on to another host and it has been night and day between the 2 providers... all I got from you is to be strung along, probably went through at least 5 of your chatbots and it deteriorated each time
-
Michele Elliston (@micheleelliston) reported@HostGator is there a problem with customer service? I've been waiting for ages just to get someone to help me.
-
Mrchispa (@Mrchispa8) reported@HostGator my website is down!! can you help us???
-
Kudehinbu Oluwaponle (@koluwaponle) reported@HostGator @HGSupport I requested using the money to cover cost of my existing snappy VPS, your support refused. They insisted on refunds, they tried refunding to my naira card, it failed and I told them to refund to my dollar card, they promised to do so but never did
-
Info4Fun Brasil (@Info4funbr) reported@BrunnooPacheco @HostGator Site is Very Slow... The Customer Portal is down...
-
Sr.Sergio (@SrSergioG) reported@ShopifySupport @HostGator @Shopify I have submitted that form countless times and you have done nothing. If Cloudflare had not notified users the hackers would still be continuing to steal from us without any issues, because you have failed to take action.
-
John Anthony (@johnanthony33) reportedAfter 23 years of being a customer of @HostGator they recently deleted/lost all database content for 4 sites during a hosting renewal. In an attempt to get a refund I got a runaround from with 3 different companies including #BlueHost and #Network Solutions. No refund yet.
-
Tana Marie ✨ (@tanamarieco) reportedDecided to go independent with HostGator hosting, but there was one problem... I needed to relearn coding. With all these new AI coding apps, I didn't know where to start.
-
HostGator Support (@HGSupport) reported@dcodrea We know that popup looks sketchy, but it isn’t from your HostGator site; it’s a browser extension (Coupert) injecting coupon ads over your dashboard. Try incognito or another browser; if it’s gone, remove the extension. If not, support can help!
-
Amainye Briggs (@amainyebriggs) reported@ethanjaack I have never had support issues with HostGator and hostinger
-
SetraHost (@SetraHost) reportedThinking about leaving Bluehost, HostGator, or SiteGround? We make it easy with free same day migrations, zero downtime and real human support. No risk - just faster, more reliable hosting at lower prices. Feel free to reach out if you have any questions and we're here to help!
-
OkYall (@okyall55) reported@HostGator deleted MANY of my posts. Not me. Hostgator. Now they won't restore them unless I pay them to do it. I've been a customer for 20 years or more. Never thought I would see the day that they would be so blatantly crooked. If you use host Gator, you have to pay for them to back up your blog or pay a third party. Or you have to copy everything on your site. BlueHost is cheaper, backs up every day, charges nothing extra and restores for no charge. What happened to hostgator?????
-
Cutearundhathi (@cutearundhathi) reported@HGSupport @adamfarrar Thank you for your reply. I have already shared my domain. Please try to understand that I have posted Important articles on it which I have written. I want my data to be retrieved and continue with your service. Yours faithfully... Arundhathi
-
Geetha Prabhu (Workflexi) (@geetu11) reported@BigRock @hostgatorindia Can someone call me on my registered mobile no. pls? Every week our emails are down and your team takes one whole day to rectify the problem. When it was hostgator, we never faced this issue. What is that you guys are doing differently that we have to suffer every week!!??
-
Feo Amante 🇺🇸 🇮🇱 🇺🇦 (@FeoAmante) reported@ethanjaack Day 6 of @HGSupport and they arbitrarily closed the ticket without checking to see if their fix worked. Which it did not. So after all these years, a random, easily solved glitch, ends my time with them. Turning a likely 15 min. Tech call into 3 emails over 6 days? Failure.
-
Dundee Internet (@Dundee_Internet) reported@HGsupport We operate a private opt-in discussion list on our mail server used to distribute messages only to subscribed members. The system is not used for spam or bulk commercial mail — it is a controlled discussion list serving legitimate clients-This appears to be a misclassification by your mail system or an IP-level restriction. Who can I contact, as you support number and AI chat doesn't understand
-
Infogate (@infogatecl) reported@HostGator We don’t need to talk with a 🤖 we need server working well and reboot our website! Awful service! #hostgatorisbad
-
Nicky D COYR! (@nick_donellan) reported@HGSupport our email server is running incredibly slow. Do you have an ETA on the fix for this?
-
PixelsTech (@PixelstechNet) reportedIt seems our service provider @HostGator has some issue and our site is not able to access atm. Sorry for the inconvenience. Will try to get it back online soon. Thank you for your patience.
-
Kudehinbu Oluwaponle (@koluwaponle) reported@HostGator @HGSupport Your support lied to sell me your Nvme vps, (I have chat evidence) which could not support my legacy apps after I made payments totaling $883. I've been trying to receive refunds since Feb 10 without success. Your support has been horrible and of little use
-
Akhil P Walia (@akhilpw) reported@hostgatorindia All our websites hosted on #Hostgator are down for the last 45 minutes, and the support is hard to reach. After waiting in-line for over 20 minutes to reach chat support , the agent is totally unresponsive.

***** Man McGoo (@ev05418283) reportedHostGator where every support page is a 404

Egerton Sinclair (@Eg_a_Sinclair) reported@skystracloud Hey, no it didn’t so I’ve moved to a new provider. Had enough of hostgator and their lack of customer service
