    Yo @HostGator WTF, AGAIN!! 🤬🤬

  • MattCReal Steerpike, creator of "Just Animals" (@MattCReal) reported

    Recovering a domain name after it's expired from @HostGator is such nonsensical rigmarole. You have to get something called a reseller's club account and then put down a $25 deposit and then essentially buy back your old domain name again :/

  • CynderHost CynderHost (@CynderHost) reported

    @ajanecek @HGSupport @HostGator We're so sorry to hear about the trouble you've been having! Our hosting plans are super reliable + we have 24/7 support available to help with any issues that may come up. We would be happy to move you over for free and show you what stellar service looks like. Can we DM you?

    @SiteGround support - fixes problem in ten minutes. Super friendly. @HostGator support - five agents, five different solutions, none work. Make you feel like an idiot. So happy I switched.

    @HGSupport There is no status in your website but our server is down again. Can’t get access to emails. Please provide a status update of when this will be fixed. We have businesses to run that rely on email.

  • web_ecosa Ecosa Web (@web_ecosa) reported

    @HGSupport Your reply does not address the problems you caused. That answer is a copy and paste reply, without taking the facts into consideration on the relevant matter.

    @Hardscape_Com @HGSupport @Hardscape_Com Thank you for contacting us. We are seeing there is a network issue and our network operations is working to address it. This is causing an increase in support contacts which is causing a delay to reach our live support team.

    @HGSupport We've been on the phone for an HOUR trying to resolve a technical issue. Please advise.
