Latest outage, problems and issue reports in social media:

  • TheDivineRabbit Divine Rabbit (@TheDivineRabbit) reported

    lol @bluehost just lost $18,000/year. I've used @HostGator for so many things, always hated it, but it worked... Tonight's issue just tripped the trigger, moving the websites I manage to my colo.

  • VmiProductions Christian O'Brien (@VmiProductions) reported

    @HostGator I have no backend access- can you either fix the issues I have repeatedly as for or give me my money back so I can move to a decent hosting company

  • abhishekdgeek Abhishek Jain (@abhishekdgeek) reported

    @dantediakos @HGSupport +1. They have broken the trust of 3 years. They won't refund for remaining period even if I chose to cancel my services with them. Support will just waste your time. @EigGroup does that to every company they take over!

  • kinkofdalovelys kinkofthelovelies (@kinkofdalovelys) reported

    just saying because i JUST noticed, adding the social login to @hostgator was probably the worst idea ever.

  • tomtolkien Tom Tolkien (@tomtolkien) reported

    @HGSupport @HostGator Your support chat said there was no PHP8…

  • rusticwanderer The Rustic Wanderer | Kshitij (@rusticwanderer) reported

    @LeelaWelch @WordPress @HostGator Is it stuck in a login loop or what seems to be the problem?

  • diganta_sircar Diganta Sircar (@diganta_sircar) reported

    I am really thankful to @ResellerClub and @HGSupport for providing excellent support to resolve the genuine issue …However the @Globe_Host is equally non-cooperative in resolving the genuine issue…it is frustrating and disappointing to do hosting at this company servers…

  • macelus Marcelus Modesto (@macelus) reported

    @HGSupport I ALREADY TRIED TO SOLVE MY PROBLEM 5 TIMES, I JUST GAVE UP AND I'M CHANGING PLATFORM

  • osas_engr CryptoSmart (@osas_engr) reported

    @HostGator I don't want to be harsh but I have an issue that has not been resolved for the past 48 hours and it doesn't tell good of your service. I have spoken to more than 6 customer agent and submitted all necessary documents yet no results and is affecting my busines #badcustomerservice

  • SCUncensored Gellman (@SCUncensored) reported

    @WrestlingTradi2 I had the same issue with my site earlier this week. Are you with Hostgator?

  • abhishekdgeek Abhishek Jain (@abhishekdgeek) reported

    @HGSupport If you really want to help, make sure someone reviews the lame excuses your team makes to close on cases.

  • rajdzines Ritesh Nathwani (@rajdzines) reported

    @HGSupport why your chat system has no alert sound ? its very very bad that no alerts .. because I have to stick here for the answers !!!?? being a tech giant ... tech company why you are using such a poor chat system for supports? why you doing this to your loyal customers ?

  • SandhyaXYZ Sandhya ᴿᵃᵃᵃ ᴬᵍᵉⁿᵗ 🇮🇳🇮🇳🇮🇳 (@SandhyaXYZ) reported

    @HostGator What happened to Austin Data Centre? I'm unable to contact support. always throwing error "We are facing issues in accessing the services hosted in our Austin Data center."

  • Imafia97 Mohit Bhatia (@Imafia97) reported

    @HGSupport my webmail is super slow since a month, please help

  • jjrruiz Juan José Ruiz (@jjrruiz) reported

    @HGSupport Is it possible to prioritize this issue, please? Please understand it's a really really urgent issue. It's #phishing which was reported a month ago (May 12th). Currently it continues stealing banking credentials from customers and is necessary to stop it as soon as possible.

  • LeelaWelch Leela Welch (@LeelaWelch) reported

    First step is figuring out why my @WordPress website stopped working about a month ago. I can't even access the admin login page. @HostGator

  • Loravara Lora (@Loravara) reported

    I grabbed a domain and hosting at Hostgator, and I'm already having trouble. It says to configure my name server, and I follow their instructions, but I don't see what they're talking about. Is it a JAWS issue? This is not a good way to start.

  • seanspratt Sean Spratt (@seanspratt) reported

    @HostGator you *really* need your browser based live chat support to have a sound notification feature. It's impossible to multi-task while working with live chat without any sound notifications. Bad for your CSRs and bad for customers.

  • Imafia97 Mohit Bhatia (@Imafia97) reported

    @HGSupport The whole webmail is down, cant even access it. Please help

  • abhishekdgeek Abhishek Jain (@abhishekdgeek) reported

    @HGSupport I got 1 month credit but that's not something I need. I want the 99.9% uptime promise. Customer care gives random excuses like: 1. N/W connectivity issue at server. 2. DDoS attack . I asked for you to move me to some other server but request is not answered and ticket is closed!

  • TheCEOViews The CEO Views (@TheCEOViews) reported

    @HostGator is doing completely scam, and they are not providing what they have promised. Their whole system is awaful. We are facing problems since two months and still not resolved but geting fake assuranse that it will be resoved soon. Our whole business is on stake.

  • ZineDigi digiDZine Creative (@ZineDigi) reported

    @HGSupport cant log into hostgator my hostgator support doesnt even take me to teh support window. is hostgator down?

  • DoubtNQuestion Progressively Disgusted Elizabeth (@DoubtNQuestion) reported

    Sooo disappointed I switched from HostGator to @bluehost BH has been nothing but problems since I signed up. Extra charges & unable to access my web-builder. Chat support worthless. Finally able to call in & they act like they're doing me a favor fixing what they screwed up.

  • Megannewman99 Megan Newman | eCommerce | Startups (@Megannewman99) reported

    @2Goodtoknow @HostGator True. Without digital and content marketing - the content will never be read.

  • ontopdownunder1 ontopdownunder (@ontopdownunder1) reported

    @DigitalPacific I joined you to get away from HostGator and the conglomerate that owns them, this is a bad joke

  • VeniceSprings Ruster (@VeniceSprings) reported

    @letsencrypt I'm not sure whats up but for a few months now my certificate has not been working. hostgator took a look, customer said they fixed it but it still isn't working on my side in any of my browsers, and friends said its not working on their side either. not sure what ive done

  • HeathDingwell Heath Dingwell (@HeathDingwell) reported from Port Saint Lucie, Florida

    @HostGator Your chat support down? Tried a couple of times now to speak with someone - get a message saying I’ll be connected to an agent within 5 minutes, and yet no one ever shows up. Need to renew my domain, but portal says my domain has been deleted. How’s that happen?

  • abhishekdgeek Abhishek Jain (@abhishekdgeek) reported

    @nilanjanakcs @HostGator @HGSupport +1. They have broken the trust of 3 years. They won't refund for remaining period if I chose to cancel my services with them.

  • tazmahan Panos (@tazmahan) reported

    @HGSupport We did and the response was to send a mail to the recipient that couldn't receive it and that it did pass your mailgates without any problem. But the issue is that spf dns queries are still more than 10 when using hostgator's suggested spf record.
