  • thedinoisland TheDinoIsland (@thedinoisland) reported

    Be careful using @hostgator I purchased a year's subscription last night and called support to see if I could have my older package migrated and was charged $13.80 for the old one by the phone rep. Sorry chat dude but it wasn't authorized.

  • jonathonhyjek Jonathon Hyjek (@jonathonhyjek) reported

    @dustinhyle @nichepursuits I just got rid of a hosting client that had 20GB of images...The number of resources they were using on my VPN just wasn't making sense for the $$. I moved them along - they're with Hostgator now. Not my problem. LOL

  • Ivaleixo Igor Aleixo (@Ivaleixo) reported

    For 2 weeks, I've been struggling to verify my domain in Google Workspace hosted by Hostgator. Their poor support leaves my SSL non-functional. Their responses to my queries vary & now they want to charge me for their mistake. @hostgator's service is unacceptable. #dissatisfied

  • MidvanaGroup Midvana Technologies (@MidvanaGroup) reported

    @RTotale76 It's an @HGSupport issue. Only affects certain users on cellular data. They have never been able to explain why.

  • HGSupport HostGator Support (@HGSupport) reported

  • TheMorphiaas Morphiaas (@TheMorphiaas) reported

    @hostgatorindia @HostGator raising a ticket for the same issue won't work. We are following you on the same issue for the last 2 months. We want the credits for those days when the website was not running, as we have lost lots of visitors to the website which has impacted the business.

  • jrickybt Jhon Enrique Bermúdez (@jrickybt) reported

    @HGSupport A week without any response. Move our services to another hosting of refund the money! No more waste of time with you. We experience that issue from October. Move our services now: Support Ticket Hostgator: 46227447.

  • TheMorphiaas Morphiaas (@TheMorphiaas) reported

    now we must say that @HostGator @hostgatorindia is one of the worst hosting servers, as every time the website is opening there is always a problem. Called many times, and they have one answer MAINTENANCE. Following since last 2 months.

  • keithlaw keithlaw (@keithlaw) reported

  • Raiju71 Melissa (@Raiju71) reported

    Beware of @HostGator. Good website service so far but I’ve been inundated with spam emails and texts since signing up with them last week. Now I have to decide if I want to stay with a company who so quickly sells my info. Im not an expert but I’m not happy with that 😡

  • Lord__Dawn LordDawn (@Lord__Dawn) reported

    Hey @HGSupport are you having issues? Can't login to the portal and my sites are down.

  • MidvanaGroup Midvana Technologies (@MidvanaGroup) reported

    @ethanjaack I'm using this company servers from past 5 years but we never faced nothing issue in past. i love @hostgatorindia because of their good services but this time hostgator broken my heart. but i still want to use @hostgator because i love their services so much.

  • QueenKoddi Queen Koddi~ Nashville ****** (@QueenKoddi) reported

    @SeattleFemdom I use hostgator, as long as they don't have a payment processor attached, I've never had any issues

  • TheMorphiaas Morphiaas (@TheMorphiaas) reported

    you charge a hefty fee for the services but give no service at all. As marketing agency has a website for their presence and we are losing our business because of you. @HostGator @ICANN #Serverless #Hosting

  • FeoAmante Feo Amante 🇺🇦 (@FeoAmante) reported

    @HGSupport @HostGator @GoDaddy I was on chat. I never got a ticket number. In both cases, after their whacky requests "Could you please try another Internet provider?" (Who pays for multiple providers? Where?) Then they'd "be right back" and let the chat room time out in 10 minutes.

  • htregoning Harry Tregoning (@htregoning) reported

    Just wishing @HostGator and the @hostgator support actually helped.

  • evan_co_ evan 🌾 (@evan_co_) reported

    @theforeignsick Go to HostMantis! They’ll won’t you on a shared server that they won’t update the PHP software for like HostGator has done. I physically cannot develop on their server anymore. Their service is atrocious

  • hostgatorindia HostGator India (@hostgatorindia) reported

    @TheMorphiaas @HostGator Can you please DM us the case ID for this issue? We'll check with our team.

  • FlavioLuccisano FLAVIO LUCCISANO ルチサーノ・フラビオ (@FlavioLuccisano) reported

    @HostGator has been charging my card two times for services I cancelled one year ago, I tried to get in touch with them and it's impossible, their virtual chat is a joke, horrible service.

  • jrickybt Jhon Enrique Bermúdez (@jrickybt) reported

    @HGSupport Since October. Yes, since Hostgator suffered a worldwide drop in its services in October, our hosting is having problems: intermittent, 7 hours to send an email. The service sucks. Refund the money or move the services. Ticket 46227447

  • KatMurti Kat Murti (@KatMurti) reported

    @HGSupport I've just been chatting with @HostGator customer support. The first agent disconnected with me and the second one said there was nothing they could do, but I should buy a different domain and connect that instead. I want MY domain, which is what I was trying to renew.

  • fan24mee fan24 (@fan24mee) reported

    @HostGator It is not a serious company at all, they cannot fix their mistakes for 48 hours and they have damaged my business these two days

  • IgorAleixo15 Igor Aleixo (@IgorAleixo15) reported

  • HGSupport HostGator Support (@HGSupport) reported

    @WhenSteelTalks @HostGator I am looking into your case. Send me a DM so that I can discuss updates, and would not suggest publicly posting case numbers as this may become a security concern down the road.
