  • ComputerCellar The Computer Cellar (@ComputerCellar) reported

    @zach_aren @bluehost We switched to BH a week ago due to poor performance on previous host, now everything we use to run our business is effectively down. We've been in contact multiple times over 24 hours, every support person has been useless. Switching to HostGator and requesting a refund ASAP.

  • WaynesboroPA Waynesboro Weather (@WaynesboroPA) reported

    @HGSupport @YssaDeWoody @HostGator Some? Your online support isn’t even working and ip login isn’t even working. This is bad. Portal connects after an extremely long wait. Seems not only customers but also the core site has problems.

  • DoRoyalHost DoRoyal Hosting (@DoRoyalHost) reported

    Well, just to clarify on that, we actually did sell websites, though it was never our main priority. Every single game server rental also came with a free website. We ran these on the HostGator Reseller network.

  • RyanJones Ryan Jones (@RyanJones) reported

    yo @HostGator @HGSupport looks like stuff is down. Ya'll need to address this, tell us you're aware of it and working on it.

  • WaynesboroPA Waynesboro Weather (@WaynesboroPA) reported

    @HGSupport @RyanJones @HostGator This is an existing problem over the last 3 weeks. The connection was terrible and on and off the last few weeks. What in the world is going on?

  • RyanJones Ryan Jones (@RyanJones) reported

    Hey @HostGator ya'll having some sort of outage right now? none of my sites are loading, and your billing/management portal is timing out too.

  • coffee_n_curses Desiree, Slightly Unfiltered (@coffee_n_curses) reported

    @HostGator I haven't had much time lately to work on my biz stuff. I finally sit down and the #1 thing on my list is to transfer my domain. Of course, @HGSupport is having issues and keeps timing out.
