Hostgator Issues Reports

Latest outage, problems and issue reports in social media:

  • Zen62com Zennie Abraham CEO ZENNIE62MEDIA INC (@Zen62com) reported

    @omarnas @petsimk @HostGator Same problem here!

  • JayMarroquin Jay Marroquin (@JayMarroquin) reported

    This is what happens when groups such as @NewfoldDigital (formally Endurance International Group) snatch up every local ISP they can and gut it to the bare minimums all in the name of profit. All of @HGSupport is now outsourced to India and it honestly sucks.

  • TheEntrepYou The Entrepreneurial You Media (@TheEntrepYou) reported

    Why is @HostGator support doing this to me? They partially helped me and left me hanging, now I am back to square 1. Because of this I am unable to update my site with today's episode of the podcast.

  • ScottSandry Sandry (@ScottSandry) reported

    @HGSupport So what scam are you running as none of your excuses fit. Sent multiple emails from same ip (ccd myself on most) 1 still gets rejected (1 I didn't cc) so it can't be my ip as the rest went fine. Also no cloud hosted email has issues. Are you trying to force ppl to cloud hosting?

  • TheDigitalHippi Debbie Forand 👋🌿💻 (@TheDigitalHippi) reported

    So disappointed in @HostGator their support team has completely jacked up my sites. Who is your hosting company? #frustrated #blogger

  • mrmansilla mrmansilla (@mrmansilla) reported

    @HGSupport Is HG with problems right now?

  • CartelProhibido Cartel Prohibido (@CartelProhibido) reported

    @TheEntrepYou @HostGator @Hostgator sucks. They left many customers without email for 7 days. After multiple claims, his response was a 2-month extension of his service.

  • BaldBeard69 LordBaldTarnishedBeard (INFP-T) (@BaldBeard69) reported

    @HostGator @HGSupport is absolutely awful if you want to cancel your domain hosting package. Ugh. 🤬

  • ScottSandry Sandry (@ScottSandry) reported

    @HGSupport I have several tickets regarding this, guess how many have been supportive? Zero. It's almost a month long issue. It's the worst your company has ever been in 10+ years. Is the default just blame the customer now? You guys admitted to changes and that's when problems started.

  • petsimk S. Simkus (@petsimk) reported

    @HostGator Is Hostgator down? Unable to open anything there - Dashboard, cPanel leads to “this site cannot be reached “

  • yahighnez2u Chantal Jones (@yahighnez2u) reported

    @HGSupport Hello…I’m unable to login to my portal. May I receive assistance with this please?

  • Runt4Ever Lori Matthews (@Runt4Ever) reported

    @HGSupport So why are you billing me a week early..customer service rep is not helping

  • JayMarroquin Jay Marroquin (@JayMarroquin) reported

    @HostGator is absolutely the worst hosting service provider I've ever had. Over the last month, multiple websites just randomly go down for over 5 minutes at a time. This happens multiple times a week. If I didn't have downtime notifications I wouldn't know about it.

  • ThinkUtilitySer Think Utility Services (@ThinkUtilitySer) reported

    @HGSupport I need your escalated support team to assist me. It's been over a week and a half since I've tried to prevent my SSL from going down. Goes down despite your feedback. Now my FTP is down from it. That's been down for a week and no feedback. Please help! Case 42729777

  • ThinkUtilitySer Think Utility Services (@ThinkUtilitySer) reported

    @HGSupport Thank you, I have been in contact with them, and issues are resolved. However, the situation should never have happened in the first place.
