I was having technical issues with my previous host.
Hey Janel,
We would love to know why we got rated so low. We have asked an Escalations Manager to reach out and make sure everything is okay.

Consistently in the top 10. A little clunky to navigate (for a novice like me) and lots of "added features" that cost extra...
Unable to log in a couple of hours ago as well, hence the 3 stars so far

Answer: SITEGROUND FIXED IN HOURS WHAT HOSTGATOR DID NOT OR COULD NOT FIX IN 9 DAYS
Answer: The chat will get you to someone but they will never know what to do to help you. Courteous but useless.
