Hostgator Review by Onedreamer – Dissatisfied

I started a new account a while ago. There was all sorts of problems causing timeouts on my site whenever like 5 people viewed it at the same. For a long time Hostgator denied there was anything wrong even though I repeatedly reported it.

Finally one technician found that there was an error made by Hostgator on my account. Instead of timeouting when 5 ppl was visiting the site simultaneously that value should have been 500 or something (dont remember the exact value but it was mistakenly set -way- too low) so Hostgator admitted they had made a serious mistake.

At that time I had spent hundreds of dollars on adsense promotion, for nothing because most of my visitors had received timeouts.

Then there was a problem with my paypal subscription and my site got suspended. Not sure wether it was paypals or hostgators fault but at that time I was fed up with the whole thing and let it rest.

Yesterday, I thought I would give it another go, since I remember I had a 50 dollar adsense coupon on my account. I paid the fee in my billings center. Site: still suspended. Called support. They said I had to pay for the month it had been suspended too, plus late fee of 10usd. I sighed, but agreed to pay it.

So yesterday I got a mail saying, site is now unsuspended.

I now have paid like 50 dollars in fees for a site that has only had problems caused by Hostgator from the start, plus what I paid for promoting it.

Anyway, I went to my cpanel to collect the adsense coupon from hostgator this summer. I was shocked to see that it was now only valid for US and Canadians. I am sure it was not when I first signed up (it was partially why I signed up in the first place in the summer.)

I sighed and logged off, thinking I would start working on the site again today since I had paid it.

Logged on today, only to see that the site is suspended again. No explanation given..
