  • IsItYumOrYuck Yum Or Yuck? Ⓥ (@IsItYumOrYuck) reported

    @HostGator I left HostGator a few months back due to outages like this happening all. the. time. Even now, every time I take a look on Twitter they seem to have some new issue. It never stops.

  • SteveDiabolo Steve Diabolo (@SteveDiabolo) reported

    @HostGator The control panel is down and over 20 of our sites... this is not a limited customer base as we are using 3 different of Your servers with total different ns records - not cool!!

  • ethanish 🍞🌹eeeezypeezy (@ethanish) reported

    @WarpOneTravel @NFTMAGAZlNE @HostGator Same, with intermittent issues in between major outages. At this point I think I'll be migrating as soon as my contract is up

  • oddsocket Oddsocket (@oddsocket) reported

    Oh, @hostgator - how 'limited' is this outage exactly?

  • WarpOneTravel Warp One Travel (@WarpOneTravel) reported

    @HostGator You know it’s bad when the competition trolls for business everytime there’s an outage.

  • WarpOneTravel Warp One Travel (@WarpOneTravel) reported

    @NFTMAGAZlNE @HostGator No. Third outage for me.

  • CynderHost CynderHost (@CynderHost) reported

    @SESTranslators @HostGator Ugh, that sounds awful! We would never let our customers down like that - we've got some great uptime statistics + are always here to help if you need us. If you're interested in moving, we can do it for free and there would be zero downtime. DM us?

  • SESTranslators Southeast Spanish, Inc. (@SESTranslators) reported

    @HostGator 3 hours now, site 100% down. 4PM to 7PM...

  • CMATmathlinks CMAT MathLinks (@CMATmathlinks) reported

    @HostGator I have a call for support to call me back but haven't received a call in over 2 hours. How long is the wait for call back. Our website and emails are down and we need a time frame on when it will be up.

  • dbyolton D. Bruce Yolton (@dbyolton) reported

    @HostGator You're doing a horrible job managing your migration. Your platform has been unstable since the migrations started. Ongoing connectivity issues and two major outages.

  • AGA18 Adriana (@AGA18) reported

    @mikedoestheart #HostGator down 🤯

  • AshleyG53499946 Ashley Guy (@AshleyG53499946) reported

    @St3llard @HostGator Our dedicated server is down

  • DarinLarimore Darin Larimore (@DarinLarimore) reported

    @HostGator This issue is affecting the @IndyPerformance website!

  • gabilima Gabi Lima (@gabilima) reported

    @HostGator Email is also down, but most importantly- you calling us limited?

  • amainyebriggs amainyebriggs (@amainyebriggs) reported

    @HostGator I have over 100 sites and they are all down

  • ShannekEffect Shannek (@ShannekEffect) reported

    @The_Pale_Realm @HostGator Tried tech support on actual HG but it just says CALCULATING in live chat. No help there. It's just so bad when I'm trying to offer my site's services to possible clients and it doesn't even load. Any other day would have been fine. But not during a live screen share meeting.

  • RobertDaleSmith Robert Dale Smith (@RobertDaleSmith) reported

    All @HostGator hosting is down..🤦

  • oneclickadvisor oneclickadvisor (@oneclickadvisor) reported

    @The_Pale_Realm @ShannekEffect @HostGator They can't e-mail you. If they used HostGator, they are probably experiencing an outage

  • MudCrabT1000 MudCrabT1000 (@MudCrabT1000) reported

    @HostGator Stop trying to downplay it. Majority of your hosting is down. We run 7 major clients websites on multiple servers and they are all down. @downdetector has over 400 reports on there alone and countless tweets.

  • Mark_McDonald10 Mark (@Mark_McDonald10) reported

    @HostGator I feel like this is more than a limited customer base issue based on what I am seeing on the net.

  • TrailsNH Kimball Rexford (@TrailsNH) reported

    @HostGator Nice job down playing the issue. The system outage effect a lot more people than just a limited number of HG customers. The real issue is no one in the world can see the site. Much bigger problem. Two client sites r down. I assume on different IPs, because built years apart.

  • CatchTheseWords Connor Scott-Gardner (@CatchTheseWords) reported

    @TRodick93 Hostgator. They've got bigger problems tonight though as a bunch of websites and email they are hosting have gone down.

  • RedneckGaijin Kristan Overstreet (@RedneckGaijin) reported

    @HostGator "A limited customer base"? "Viewing their websites?" My main business email is out, as is my business. Please don't make this sound like a minor annoyance for us.

  • altfilmguide Alt Film Guide (@altfilmguide) reported

    @HostGator How prompt? What is the issue affecting this "limited customer base"? 11 yrs with Hostgator. In the last 2 yrs or so, it has become appallingly unreliable. Support phone lines that go dead, unqualified support personnel, a dedicated server that keeps crashing. Time to move on.

  • NFTMAGAZlNE NFT Magazine & Awardsⓦ (@NFTMAGAZlNE) reported

    @HostGator Service has been exceptional for over a year. Let them work on it.

  • jasonjustlaw Jason West, Esq. (@jasonjustlaw) reported

    @HostGator Not a limited customer base and more than just websites that are down. Our email has been down for over two hours. Can't even get into cPanel.

  • The_Pale_Realm Sapphire Sun (@The_Pale_Realm) reported

    @ShannekEffect @HostGator Wow, that's terrible. I recommend HostGator to all of my clients. Shocked none of them have emailed me yet.

  • St3llard Stellar (@St3llard) reported

    Anyone having issues with @HostGator and their dedicated servers. Been offline since about 4:30PM EST. @HGSupport

  • soccerra Robb Alexander (@soccerra) reported

    @HostGator Has anyone had success in canceling the service on a prepay contract and receiving a refund? Id also be interested in alternatives.. Can't wait any longer for HG to get things together

  • gmululu gmululu (@gmululu) reported

    @HostGator Hacking the same issue. Any update @HGSupport
