|
|
|
HostGator hacked my site's file system, bringing the site crashing down. I didn't know until emails started arriving.
When I contaced HostGator, I received an email with a link to cancel service.
After moving the domains elsewhere, and registering hostgator-sucks.com, HostGator started attacking all of my domains with ICANN complaints via. an anonymous email account - emails which conicided exactly with HostGator's IP addresses accessing hostgator-sucks.com.
Just about every day, mostly during peak evening times, my sites were not accessable for 5-30 minutes at a time.
When I demaned a refund, I received an email that said I had to 'ask nicely'...
This is NOT a company you want to deal with, no service, no support, bad people.
I wasted a weekend moving a bunch of sites to a new host, instead of on skis, just to get out from under HostGator ASAP!

So i must not be the only one! My site has been on the shitz since early today. they keep blaming their hosting co theplanet rather than take responsiblity and offer the hosting refund. Im ready to dump these guys. Their service goes down at least 1-2x a month for 20 minutes during each incident during PEAK TIME. And those are only the times I notice they are down. Drop them!
What a RIPOFF!!!!!!
