HostGator Support (@HGSupport) reported@Gabbybooks82 @HostGator We understand the seriousness of this situation and want to support you promptly. Please respond to us in the DM so we can provide a verification token and share more information to help resolve this.
-
Joseph Franco (@francojosephsd) reported@HGSupport When will you correct the VPS service? 96 hour is way out of good service.
-
Daniel Micovic (@DanMicovic) reported@HostGator @HGSupport we are now nearing 72 hours without access to our three sites. Zero e-mails updating the situation, daily support chats (whose transcripts are emailed), multiple PM with you on this platform...and nothing. It is time for HG to begin providing real answers beyond cut-and-paste ones.
-
Brian Modansky (@BrianModansky) reportedLater on I designed the theme for the control panel that all their customers used. Then I redesigned the website. The business started to boom. We started hiring a lot of employees so I went from customer support and website designer to build HostGator’s employee training
-
Mrchispa (@Mrchispa8) reported@HostGator almost 10 hours no service!
-
Mrchispa (@Mrchispa8) reported@HostGator Website down for almost 6 hours....

Hussain Abeer (@hussainabeer_) reportedIs hostgator blocked on your debit cards yes or no? @bankofmaldives your customer service has failed to give me a straight answer since monday. Aharunves kuranee viyafaari. This is unacceptable behaviour. First u say invalid cvc the u say platform issue now insufficient funds.

Follow Me On GETTR Instead. I’m @AmericasMansMan (@PeterVadala) reportedI think @Hostgator @HGSupport @NewfoldDigital fixed it. I don't want to be too hopeful here, however I think they may have resolved the issue.
-
True Signal Media (@TrueSignalMedia) reportedHey @HostGator — your “Live Chat” and “Support” links loop back to your own help page. I’ve got a valid SSL installed, DNS and Cloudflare set up correctly, but my site’s stuck in an HTTPS redirect loop (ERR_TOO_MANY_REDIRECTS). Your backend needs to resync the SSL vhost or restart Apache. Any chance someone competent can help me out today?
-
Satyam Gupta (@TheSatyamGupta) reportedOur website has been down for 6 hours and the server issue is not yet fixed. @BigRock @HostGator claims 99.9% uptime in spite of this we are facing this issue.
-
Zennie Abraham ZENNIE62 #SuperBowlLX #NFLDRAFT (@ZennieAbraham62) reportedHey @grok do you know why HostGator now closes its offices rather than give 24-hour support, unlike they sed to ?
-
Zennie Abraham ZENNIE62 #NFL #NFLDRAFT #SDCC #OAK (@ZennieAbraham62) reportedAnd on the matter of a “custom config” since HostGator’s responsibility is to the database, you WORK with the maker of the “custom config” because they need the help from what is supposed to be their business partner: HostGator. Don’t know who’s telling you to write what you wrote but it’s a really bad look.
-
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!
-
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
-
Follow Me On GETTR Instead. I’m @AmericasMansMan (@PeterVadala) reportedAnd then @hostgator does this thing where they pretend to fix the problem, @newfoldDigital- but they send you to a tech person who can’t fix it I spent hours on the phone — something about optimizing the site. Clearly … not the answer. Let’s not forget when the tech people pick up the phone to clock in and ignore you for an hour… who the heck runs Newfold Digital
-
TBC🏄♂️❎ (@tennisballchips) reported@HostGator @WordPress Now it's created a whole new set of problems. At first, it kept directing me to some weird temporary domain. Then I logged in and updated the settings and now it's a 403 error page. Hours of my time is going down the drain for no reason.
-
SetraHost (@SetraHost) reportedThinking about leaving Bluehost, HostGator, GoDaddy 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 pricing. Let us know if you have any questions and we're here to help!
-
Jordan Blum🤘 (@JordanBlum87) reportedCan any tech people help? We use Outlook for The Bookends Review and once a week, it'll stop sending and receiving mail because "503 Valid RCPT command must precede DATA." Then, I'll delete the emails we have in the HostGator CP and it'll work again. Any ideas how to fix?
-
Nicky D COYR! (@nick_donellan) reported@HGSupport our email server is running incredibly slow. Do you have an ETA on the fix for this?
-
Infogate (@infogatecl) reported@HostGator We don’t need to talk with a 🤖 we need server working well and reboot our website! Awful service! #hostgatorisbad
-
HostGator Support (@HGSupport) reported@ZennieAbraham62 @HostGator Thank you for the outreach. Support can assist with WP installs, login or admin access issues, installing, plugin and theme activation, plugin and theme errors conflicts and more. For other WP concerns beyond our scope try Pro Design Live subscriptions for personalized guidance.
-
Daniel Micovic (@DanMicovic) reported@francojosephsd @HGSupport @HostGator Same, and they seem to think that the issue has been fully resolved. No communication to the customers, or among themselves.
-
JK’s Case History (@KenMediated) reportedWhat’s wrong with HostGator? I need to contact my doctor but HostGator just gives me the runaround. Anyone have similar problems?
-
King Stanky (@TheKingOfStank) reported@MichaelFKane Time to set up your domain on a proxy that redirects traffic to a bunch of different services, 1 amazon, 1 hostgator, 1 idk something else. Then have them load distribute based on availability. You can never be too safe.
-
Feo Amante 🇺🇸 🇮🇱 🇺🇦 (@FeoAmante) reported@HGSupport @HostGator Your team did not. If they told you that, its false. I get a Hostgator email whenever I sign in. No problem. I got a Hostgator ad trying to sell me more stuff. No problem. Unfortunately your team of Escalated Techs have been unable to send a simple email since Friday, 9:14am
-
Daniel Micovic (@DanMicovic) reported@HGsupport @HostGator now Google is taking down ads and organic ratings because the sties can't be reached. Thoughts? Compensation to regain rankings? Would love to hear any suggestions you may have as this disaster drags on.
-
Juan luis | JLP (@juanluis_JLP) reportedIs Hostgator down for anyone? my sites are down all of the sudden and their support agent doesn't seem to find the issue.
-
Hephzibah Magazine TV (@Gabbybooks82) reported@HGSupport Or if you can recreate the current server with the latest OS and CPANEL and restore the service, I will renew the server. We have been in business with you for over ten years, paying heavily and you can't give us our data After your system collapse??
-
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.

deepanshu garg (@dkdipanshu) reported@BigRock I am stuck with hostgator migration, your support number are not available , Chat team is not able to support , where should i go ??
