    World Worst support service of @HostGator first of fall they support did not came to chat waiting for at least 20 to 30 minutes. After when support came there response time is soo long...... Very bad services @HostGator.

  • Customercrusad1 Customercrusader (@Customercrusad1) reported

    @HGSupport Websites remain down it seems #Hostgator is not concerned

  • Mostafh_8 Mostafa Mogary (@Mostafh_8) reported

    @HostGator I spoke with your support team, but without any solutions, they all tell me that the problem will be escalated to the managers, and I sent you more than 5 emails and no one answers, this service is very bad

  • mypenplease Sports betting lead expert (@mypenplease) reported

    its crazy @HostGator database servers are very poor.

  • multidimension MultiDimensionStudio (@multidimension) reported

    @HGSupport can you share a support email please?

  • godlikescoke Paul Higginbotham (he/him) (@godlikescoke) reported

    @HGSupport I'm trying to buy a domain on your site and it keeps getting stuck on the search page. Can you help with this? We want to use you for hosting, too, but this seems ridiculous.

  • HgMorbi Morbi ☁️ (@HgMorbi) reported

    @dregadude I switched to Hostinger, but Hostgator and Dreamhost are some other big hosting services that are like "yeah just don't post illegal ****"

  • Mostafh_8 Mostafa Mogary (@Mostafh_8) reported

    @HGSupport JUST I WANT YOU TO KNOW THAT FOR 5 DAYS I HAVE BEEN WAITING FOR YOU TO SOLVE OUR ISSUE BUT UNTIL NOW NO ONE SOLVE IT, JUST I WANT TO THANK YOU FOR THE GREAT CUSTOMER SERVICE.😤

  • Customercrusad1 Customercrusader (@Customercrusad1) reported

    Has @HostGator stopped it's service ? no one coming on support chat for the last few days.@HGSupport

  • Lucage Luca Gemelli (@Lucage) reported

    @HGSupport @HostGator Two weeks delay in solving a email delivery delay problem is a bit excessive. How many times more do I need to contact support #hostgator

  • MadameScott Annie Scott (@MadameScott) reported

    @HGSupport Please help! Forgotten password, cannot get reset link sent and only way of contacting support is by logging in!! Can you help?

  • Mostafh_8 Mostafa Mogary (@Mostafh_8) reported

    @HostGator We have ticket reference number: 41718109 you promised us to solve the issue within 24 hours and I have been waiting more than 4 days without solving

  • jtlindroos JT Lindroos (@jtlindroos) reported

    @HGSupport Your website portal seems to be down. Tried to contact support (again) as previous help was a big waste of time.... emails to gmail are bouncing thanks to likely one of your users spamming from same server...

  • VSJ1 വിഷ്ണു എസ് ജെ (@VSJ1) reported

    @MDDHosting Undoubtedly Yes. Coz we used GoDaddy, Bluehost, Hostgator, Imotionhosting. Then switched to mddhosting in 2018. Never looked back at any of it. With Elastic Plan No worries for Overloading Space or Bandwidth and Biggest thing is Security enabled through host which I liked thmost.

    @hostgatorindia @HGSupport Been emailing for 1 week now. No response. I need support. Any chance of getting some?

  • neurovagrant Ian Campbell (@neurovagrant) reported

    Let's start out with @HostGator - who allowed a number of domains targeting @Coinbase users over the last few days. coinbase-security-alerts[.]com coinbase-device-access[.]com coinbase-transaction-suspicious[.]com coinbase-requested-signin[.]com & more

  • StormFaerywolf 🐺Storm Faerywolf🌻 (@StormFaerywolf) reported

    @spiritoftwi I had a HostGator thing for awhile and that was… problematic. Not terrible. But GoDaddy was better for me. They usually have great customer service and they did warn me but it was confusing. I thought I was fine. Until I wasn’t. 😝

  • Mostafh_8 Mostafa Mogary (@Mostafh_8) reported

    @HostGator escalated your ticket into a priority queue I have documented the severity of your issue and I can assure you that one of our administrators should be contacting you shortly via e-mail but no one solves my issue, So Why do you take our money and not find solutions to our issues?

  • iosvsand iOS Vs Android memes (@iosvsand) reported

    @CloudflareHelp Hi! I was facing error 522 issues on my site a few minutes ago, I was trying to contact the Hostgator support team but I was also facing error 500 there. But now my site is working fine and hostgator support page too. How this issue was also effecting hostgator?

  • abhishekdgeek Abhishek Jain (@abhishekdgeek) reported

    @HGSupport They already are! But that's not the point. Here the question for you to answer - How professional is it of Hostgator to ask customer to "Send the email after couple of hours."? Also I am not getting my refund as 45 days are up! Dude I took 3 year plan! I am stuck with you!

  • Tesstranslates Tess Whitty - English into Swedish localization (@Tesstranslates) reported

    @HGSupport What has happened with Hostgator support? Both my sites have been alternately down for the past two months. I have two escalated cases but nothing happens and no emails as promised, even after 4-5 days. I used to love the support I got....
