-
Shamail Aijaz (@shamailaijaz) reported@HGSupport I've already given you my ticket number in my yesterday's tweet S-2195876... It has been 6 days now... Your customer support is completely dead, including toll free number and chat.
-
Sr.Sergio (@SrSergioG) reported@ShopifySupport @HostGator @Shopify I have submitted that form countless times and you have done nothing. If Cloudflare had not notified users the hackers would still be continuing to steal from us without any issues, because you have failed to take action.
-
Zennie Abraham ZENNIE62 #SuperBowlLX #NFLDRAFT (@ZennieAbraham62) reportedHey @grok do you know why HostGator now closes its offices rather than give 24-hour support, unlike they sed to ?
-
Deporable (@okdeplorable) reported@HostGator Apparently this company has moved all of it's customer service overseas. Consequently you can only understand every other word.

I REFUSE (@seanrogers8) reported@HostGator @HGSupport When will you fix your email hosting? You provide the worst service ever!
-
Vasudevan M.R. (@VasudevanMR) reported@hostgatorindia @HGSupport My emails have been blocked apparently because my IP address has been flagged. But I use a dynamic IP allotted by my ISP @airtelindia . I have no control over the IP. There is no way for me to resolve the issue. Absolutely pathetic.
-
CENSORED BY T!!TTER (@PeterVadala) reported@HostGator @HostGator or anyone out there can you verify this is actually #Hostgator before we attempt to do tech support via #X instead of over the phone
-
Cutearundhathi (@cutearundhathi) reported@HGSupport @adamfarrar Thank you for your reply. I have already shared my domain. Please try to understand that I have posted Important articles on it which I have written. I want my data to be retrieved and continue with your service. Yours faithfully... Arundhathi

-
Cutearundhathi (@cutearundhathi) reported@HGSupport @adamfarrar I haven't received any confirmation on fixing my issue with Hostgator on DM. Why is it so? I don't understand....Is this the way you give service to your customers?
-
Wojtek (Voytek) Bereza (@voytekbereza) reported@HostGator whats up with your support? I cant submit a ticket, you are not picking up your emails and not picking up your phone...
-
✌ Brando™ 🇨🇦 Whistler (@surfingshreddie) reported@HGSupport I cannot access any of my websites. Are your servers down?
-
Lucho Señal⚡️ (@Luchocalabera) reported@HostGator @_CooLesT_ All ready did Server is down forma TVE last 5 hours at least
-
Shawn Brown (@shawnbb13827) reported@HostGator I've been on the phone with your so called Customer Support. Straight useless. It would probably help if they spoke true American language, but like every other call center - your **** is all outsourced!
-
Joe Youngblood - SEO, Futurology, AI, Marketing (@YoungbloodJoe) reportedRocketship SEO Plugin: We have identified a memory handling issue with our plugin that appears to largely impact Yoast users on Bluehost (though not HostGator which is the same company) and could impact other shared hosting environments. in 100% of cases we've investigated the issue goes away in a few hours as memory used subsides. You might get an error immediately after activating the plugin that says there has been a critical error on the site. Your site and Admin area are fine though you may not be able to edit plugins / posts / pages, this is the memory issue manifesting itself. You might also get a report emailed by WordPress saying the issue was caused by @Yoast using too much memory, but it is our plugin causing the problem not Yoast. Our best guess at the moment is that this error is caused by our compatibility settings with Yoast which is performed automatically upon install and activation. We are looking at making this process more efficient and improving our compatibility so sites in shared environments like Bluehost do not encounter this issue.

Feo Amante 🇺🇸 🇮🇱 🇺🇦 (@FeoAmante) reported@HGSupport @ethanjaack I did that. Repeatedly. Kept the transcripts. Your phone and chat techs openly admit that they can do very little and sent it up the chain, twice. Escalated Support means email only and "Try this. Works on our end!" and they close the ticket. It's Sunday.

Fabiyi | React | TypeScript (@script_codes) reported@MudiTheInvestor @myarmone The first time I experienced true customer care was with @HostGator after suffering in the hands of WhoGoHost(a Nigerian hosting company)
-
Bloom (@Jwrbloom) reported@HGSupport One of your tech support people had me flush my DNS. It solved the initial problem, but created two others. One, I can't connect my text editor to the server, and it won't let me get to your website portal either. I'm getting an Edge IP Address notification.
-
TBC🏄♂️❎ (@tennisballchips) reported@HostGator @WordPress Now it's created a whole new set of problems. At first, it kept directing me to some weird temporary domain. Then I logged in and updated the settings and now it's a 403 error page. Hours of my time is going down the drain for no reason.
-
Zara_Schneider (@ZSchneider76107) reported@voytekbereza @HostGator Sounds like a deployment or script loading issue. This is where stable infrastructure and proper server setup really make a difference.
-
Shailesh B Shah Sapan (@shaileshbshah99) reported@BigRock @HostGator @hostgatorindia My website is down since last 4-5 days. The business is in trouble. What are you doing? Now please dont ask to DM my details... It is not only my problem... There are serveral other business, too. Answer here only...

Mehmet (@mettersoy) reportedAfter 14 years as a HostGator customer, I’m leaving. Not because of price. Not because of performance. But because they silently blocked all outbound traffic and took down my ecommerce business. 🧵👇
-
Shamail Aijaz (@shamailaijaz) reported@HostGator's customer support is a huge disappointment! It's been 6 days and still no update on my ticket S-2195876. They don't seem to understand the issue and can't provide a solution. This is extremely unprofessional and their customer support is dead. @HGSupport
-
Feo Amante 🇺🇸 🇮🇱 🇺🇦 (@FeoAmante) reported@HGSupport @HostGator Your team did not. If they told you that, its false. I get a Hostgator email whenever I sign in. No problem. I got a Hostgator ad trying to sell me more stuff. No problem. Unfortunately your team of Escalated Techs have been unable to send a simple email since Friday, 9:14am
-
Kudehinbu Oluwaponle (@koluwaponle) reported@HostGator @HGSupport Your support lied to sell me your Nvme vps, (I have chat evidence) which could not support my legacy apps after I made payments totaling $883. I've been trying to receive refunds since Feb 10 without success. Your support has been horrible and of little use
-
Dundee Internet (@Dundee_Internet) reported@HGsupport We operate a private opt-in discussion list on our mail server used to distribute messages only to subscribed members. The system is not used for spam or bulk commercial mail — it is a controlled discussion list serving legitimate clients-This appears to be a misclassification by your mail system or an IP-level restriction. Who can I contact, as you support number and AI chat doesn't understand
