  • capello_007 Owusu Kwabs (@capello_007) reported

    What is happening @HostGator emails on shared host dont get delivered on time. A very bad delay time and it looks like its staying. Do something about it as I have been really disappointed in your services getting to the close of the year.

  • Hungry4Web Christine (@Hungry4Web) reported

    @HGSupport @HostGator Thank you @HostGator ! Dm and ultimately a phone call, problem solved!

  • TheCarolineErv Caroline Ervin (@TheCarolineErv) reported

    @squarespace and @HostGator plz help: I need to relink my domain to my squarespace site, but I can't access cPanel in Host Gator, and no hosting package is even showing up in Host Gator. 🙃

  • capello_007 Owusu Kwabs (@capello_007) reported

    @HGSupport mails delivery to other account has been very bad. I have a shared host and I have complained about this problem since but it seems its come to remain. You claim you have an issue but why is it taking so long to fix it #hostgator

  • BlaiseKharrl THE REALTOR (@BlaiseKharrl) reported

    @capello_007 @HostGator When you send an attachment it never delivers either

  • theandrewadcock Andrew Adcock (@theandrewadcock) reported

    @HostGator locked me out of my database causing a site to go down. It's been 36 hours and they refuse to even respond to me. Tech support doesn't know anything about the lockout. What absolute trash service.

    It's sad that HostGator Never Launched

  • Hungry4Web Christine (@Hungry4Web) reported

    @hostgator is there a trick to your live chat?? I've been trying to access support for 3 days now...

  • SpiritualLight Resist. (@SpiritualLight) reported

    @HGSupport I hate HG with a passion, but you are nice and just doing your Job. I hope you have a great day, and stay positive. But we both know what kind of crack company Host Gator is. It is a bad, Rip off, lying company, worst of the worst. You should find a new company to work for.

  • NeumieAwards Neumie Awards (@NeumieAwards) reported

    @HGSupport @HostGator It does not seem you need more information to take a look, since it is a global issue with all your VPS customers

    PSA: @HostGator - HOST GATOR SUCKS!!!! BEEN ON THE PHONE AND ON HOLD FOR 9.5 HOURS TODAY AND STILL NOT WORKING!!! AVOID AT ALL COST - THEY DON'T CARE ABOUT THEIR SERVERS OR CUSTOMERS. CONSTANTLY DOWN! @HGSupport

  • hopeless_hooker HopelessHooker (@hopeless_hooker) reported

    @angryhxxker Safest seems to be making a WordPress then loading it to hostgator iirc. That said, wix hasn't kicked a bunch of us in NZ yet, but you might not be able to contact support :( squarespace is a nono iirc, also hard(er) to use

  • GR36 Greg Morris (@GR36) reported

    @HGSupport I’ve unsubscribed. See the screenshot. That what I see when I click on the unsubscribe link on your emails. I haven’t been a customer for years. I think that might be past the point of legal retainment!

  • cnmoody Chris Moody (@cnmoody) reported

    Who is the best hosting provider these days? Having MAJOR issues with @HostGator and have been down for weeks for no reason. Three domains with @WordPress installs that I would need to move.

    @HostGator @HGSupport the agent says all VPNs are down across the world? And this is 90 minutes so far? Where's a fix!?

  • ratbag359 Joshua Caple (@ratbag359) reported

    @EthaanJack Still up, It is ridiculous @HostGator has gone down hill from when I used to be with them well even then they were not good.

  • SpiritualLight Resist. (@SpiritualLight) reported

    I made the mistake of using HostGator, and put it this way, I paid $200 to my development team to move the site far far away from this bad company called HostGator. 0 trust. They lie, lie lie. Man, even Google blacklisted for a time, my site, over HostGators trojan servers

  • speedschootre Vav (@speedschootre) reported

    Between having my dead name and hostgator still billing me even after I cancelled their service, I think I'm going to close my paypal account...

  • BrotherWarfare Brother Warfare ➐ (@BrotherWarfare) reported

    @MaeBrightwell @HostGator And whats the deal about giving them the your bank statement for verification? as a CEO of a long running company we request the same from our customers?, i don't get it, you have an amazing support team at Hostgator, and that's part of their job ?
