    @HostGator This is really strange that since last 5 days you people are telling that you are resolving issue of email but nothing happening. Are u understanding in today’s world due to non working email how much business loss we are observing?

  • gabyazulyoro87 Gabriel Gargiulo (@gabyazulyoro87) reported

    @EsquibalUSA @HostGator Same problem here. Any solution @HostGator ??

  • shoaibhussain Shoaib Hussain (@shoaibhussain) reported

    @EsquibalUSA @HostGator Same thing happened with me. It had been happening once in a while since I first got my hosting. I turned a blind eye all this time but since last week websites and email have been going down practically for 70% of the time had to make a hard choice to change hosting! Good luck!

  • KitchenerTesla TeslaKitchener (@KitchenerTesla) reported

  • CartelProhibido Cartel Prohibido (@CartelProhibido) reported

    @_Renato_Cardoso @HostGatorBrasil @hostgator sucks

  • r_sotojr Ricky (@r_sotojr) reported

    @MagoDuende @HostGator Day six and counting. No, last December they were down for 2 weeks. It was a disaster with my customers.

  • mhalavo Andy Halavonich (@mhalavo) reported

    What's a better alternative to @HostGator? My sites have been down repeatedly for a week now.

  • Nicolas_Jurado Nicolás Jurado Allende (@Nicolas_Jurado) reported

    @HostGator @HGSupport Chat has been hanging for a while this week. Another channel, to address support, please? #hostgator #hostgatorsupport

  • r_sotojr Ricky (@r_sotojr) reported

    @HostGator DAY SIX OF HORRIBLE SERVICE. Who even runs this company? Anyone suggestions on hosting providers? This is the second time in a year they've screwed up emails for this long. Last time they blamed AWS for a TWO WEEK outage. STAY AWAY.

  • CartelProhibido Cartel Prohibido (@CartelProhibido) reported

    @4realmiclo @hostgator sucks

  • aaronsilverman Aaron Silverman (@aaronsilverman) reported

    @HostGator My goal is to have a hosting provider that does not go down twice in a week? Do you think you can help with that?

  • saldana8307 Juan José Saldaña (@saldana8307) reported

    @HostGator @websoftpr There are 5 days since the problem started! I am losing my customers.

  • CartelProhibido Cartel Prohibido (@CartelProhibido) reported

    @HostGator FIX YOUR EMAIL SERVERRRRRR

  • shaunoconnor1 Shaun O Connor (@shaunoconnor1) reported

    @shoaibhussain @EsquibalUSA @HostGator Same, the 'Error Establishing A Database Connection' error was a regular occurrence for me too. Hostgator support insisted that it was something up with my WP installation or plugins (it clearly wasn't)

  • waltinhobr WalTRInho- Libertadores eu sou Tri (@waltinhobr) reported

    @HostGator I can´t believe! It´s Wednesday and we are still having problems!!!!

  • r_sotojr Ricky (@r_sotojr) reported

    @HGSupport @CartelProhibido Usually when people don't have an ETA means they don't even know where the problem is. If this is the case then just say so so we can begin migrating our services ASAP.

  • saldana8307 Juan José Saldaña (@saldana8307) reported

    @theadversary_ @HostGator I still have emails problems!!. More than 80 customers affected calling me since five days ago!

  • aaronsilverman Aaron Silverman (@aaronsilverman) reported

    @HGSupport @HostGator y'all doing anything to get my website back up and running? Down twice in less than a week is not good. Is this the new norm?

  • saldana8307 Juan José Saldaña (@saldana8307) reported

    @dpcnh1 @HostGator I have a lot of problems with the outbound emails.!! We need a solution ASAP.

  • dpcnh1 Dave Corbin (@dpcnh1) reported

    @HostGator Still outbound email issues. Very problematic.

  • aaronsilverman Aaron Silverman (@aaronsilverman) reported

    @HGSupport Thanks. A few minutes ago, I spoke with someone at the customer service number and they placed my domain in the queue for troubleshooting.

  • aaronsilverman Aaron Silverman (@aaronsilverman) reported

    Hey @HostGator, my website is down again. 2nd time in a week. What gives? Not good for my business if my website is down.

  • olopeza Oliver (@olopeza) reported
