    @HGSupport @HostGator @hostgatorindia ok, so I buy a domain and next day I start getting calls. It is a very generic domain name, one that no one even can care about. Who are you trying to fool here? Someone among your employee is selling customer data. Find him.

    @HostGator @HostGator WHY IS YOUR SUPPORT SO HORRIBLE?

  • JeffersonZanini Jefferson C. Zanini (@JeffersonZanini) reported

    @HGSupport @HostGator Hi, I's been 5 days since I asked a password reset email and still didn't get it. Is there any problems with password system? I can't login...

    @hostgatorindia HostGator hosting server is very bad. Every day done more than half hour website Server down. &Customer care have no any authority to say why down to known the server. Since 2 years i have been to used #hostgator for our website hosting. I think you have no need to your customer.

  • RyanJones Ryan Jones (@RyanJones) reported

    Looks like my @HGSupport @HostGator server is down. Tech support has no idea why. Said they'd call me back. Anybody else experiencing this?

  • ShoppersWing3 Vandita Tiwari (@ShoppersWing3) reported

    @HGSupport @hostgatorindia Not able to login at hostgator, and my website is also down, what happened to your server? Not able to raise a ticket. "took too long to respond"

  • PaulaPuffer Paula Puffer (@PaulaPuffer) reported

    Anyone else having problems accessing their @HostGator account?

  • espressoedition Stephanie | The Espresso Edition (@espressoedition) reported

    @andrewwriting12 @alitescape Siteground is amazing. I hate GoDaddy, Bluehost, and HostGator. They’re all so confusing and complicated and have terrible customer service. Siteground is pricey but 100% worth it.

  • Juanbenegas85 Juan benegas (@Juanbenegas85) reported

    @HostGator So far this month I have not been able to use WHMCS for 2 full weeks. The support does not give me any solution. Very disappointed with the service

  • SteveCinq Steven Cinquegrana (@SteveCinq) reported

    @HostGator Just spent 45 min on a chat with an idiot named Niveditha trying to get them to fix our SSL which HG has removed, and gave up. They had zero idea about HG's own systems. I've had enough now. I NEED to get away from this incompetent company. Used to be good once upon a time.

  • bhaskersanil_ Mr. Code (@bhaskersanil_) reported

    There are many registrars that you can use to register a domain name, some of the most popular ones include: GoDaddy Namecheap HostGator Network Solutions 1&1 DreamHost Google Domains Bluehost Hover Which one is the cheapest ? #domains #startups #webdevelopment

  • billydavies___ Billy Davies (@billydavies___) reported

    @TomFrankly Update - I've been in touch with @HostGator customer service and they made some changes to SSL and WordPress multisite settings. All is working now. Fantastic customer service. Thanks again for your assistance @TomFrankly!

  • bloggista Roel Abatayo 🇵🇭 (@bloggista) reported

    F#&$ @HostGator your support sucks big time. Time to really get out of this ****** hosting provider. #HostgatorSucks

  • officialskgupta Sandeep Gupta (@officialskgupta) reported

    @HGSupport @hostgatorindia You can DM me I am unable to do that... And I don't need any waste discussion I have wasted my most important time with your support team also... So now I need money back only... No other option left Else within 48 hours we will move the Cyber Cell and IT Cell for legal action.

  • CryptoNFTMantra Crypto Mantra (@CryptoNFTMantra) reported

    @HGSupport @HostGator @hostgatorindia I have bought numerous domains from GoDaddy and never received these stupid sales calls. Don't teach me about domain privacy. You are intentionally selling customer data to these companies, no one starts calling as soon as you buy a domain name.

  • Amitkashyap031 Amit Kashyap (@Amitkashyap031) reported

    @HostGator today my website is showing error of 503 please let me know the issue ( its from server )

  • officialskgupta Sandeep Gupta (@officialskgupta) reported

    Dear Team @NewfoldDigital and @HostGator Remember, this is too much of complaining every day of your most worst hosting services. Like we are facing Sever down and Security issue last 2-3 months. Kindly refund our money or we need to move legal action. Gov should ban this Org.

  • navijith Vijith Nair (@navijith) reported

    Never host your website on @HostGator Go for any services but not @HostGator

  • Juanbenegas85 Juan benegas (@Juanbenegas85) reported

    @SetraHosting Yes. in that I am. Hostgator says it's malware and WHMCS says it's a problem with the PHP version that isn't compatible with ionCube. 2 different diagnoses. very bad service

  • SetraHosting SetraHost (@SetraHosting) reported

    @fmlukanga @VinodSharma10x @natmiletic Unfortunately, it's very common for Bluehost/HostGator websites to get malware and little to nothing is done to fix it on their end except charging you $300+ for a scan on SiteLock. I'd suggest using a hosting provider that is equipped with advanced security to prevent this.

  • NanayaNoShiki NaNo (@NanayaNoShiki) reported

    @REALCURVYMAMA Hostgator. Offers everything GoDaddy offers for a better price, better support, better service. Been working with them for years and haven't been disappointed. Less data/backup issues too.
