Free hos*tgat*or hosting

The coupon is expired now. I wished I had landed here earlier :(
 
Got a similar e-mail as above regarding account. I went ahead and called them. Just provide them with the same sign up details used when creating the account. Everything is ok with my account.

They will ask about the coupon code. Give them the one you used and tell the rep you got it from a friend. You will be okay :)

Just curious ... Did you get THIS email before OR after the regular setup email? The code processed for me and my HG billing looks ok ($0 balance due) but I can't login to cpanel.

They may be catching up for those that actually were able to use the code. So maybe I should try their helpdesk now. Worth a try anyway.

Thanks!

I was late "Coupon Expired. Please use coupon "AUTUMN" for 20% off." :(

any more coupons?
 
i was JUST going to sign up with hostgator. you are the man!! when you say "any" hosting package, does that really mean their most expensive one? i'm not familiar with their plans. i guess i'll mosey over and have a look see. thanks given
 
Too late :(
Hope everything goes well with those who were lucky enough to use the coupon :wall:
 
i got this mail from them :

Code:
Hello,

Unfortunately, the coupon you used is not valid for dedicated server orders. If you like, we can offer 20% off your server order.

Reply back approving this and we can invoice your account.

Thanks,

Well ... there STILL may be hope for those that WERE able to order thru the code given.

Put a ticket in at HG about not being able to login to cpanel and got this reply:

Hello,

I still see the account is still pending even thou you got a welcome email you will need to wait till this account is cleared. I do apologize for the delay.

Mine still works and i can login to the cpanel. I registered business account yesterday.
 
I registered last night and although i got confirmation etc, my password was not letting me access the cpanel. Just went on live talk with them and the conversation went like this...

(12:48:43 AM) Derrick Em: How may I assist you today?
(12:48:53 AM) hi
(12:49:10 AM) i have signed up for an account and cant seem to access it
(12:49:15 AM) Derrick Em: Okay.
(12:49:15 AM) Derrick Em: Please wait while I check. Thank you for your patience.
(12:54:58 AM) any luck?
(12:56:30 AM) Derrick Em: Please check your email for your new password and the correct information to log in.


(12:57:56 AM) : thanks
(12:59:31 AM) Derrick Em: You are welcome.


So everything looks good. I dont see how they could cancel the accounts. At the end of the day, its their own fault. We simply took advantage of their error. Who knows, at the end of the day it might even make them money when it somes to renewals etc.
 
tried the coupon today
got the confirmation email
awaiting confirmation...
my login works-for now

I got mail from them to confirm account.I called them and my account got activated and its working now.
 
Damn, the coupon expired.

I just registered one domain, and I was just about to register one more just for lulz, but too late :(
 
FYI

OK ... I'm finally good with the cpanel login. I went to live chat and they got it straightened out.

Sooo ... It appears that IF you were one of the lucky ones to actually get processed via the coupon code then just talk to HG live support chat & they should get it cleared up.

Good Luck!

You bahstad. I just talked to live chat, and the chap gave me a run around, and I've had to email billing. Said something about a backlog of 2ip users :)

Anyway, sent the email off, I'll report the findings when I get them.
 
Guys keep trying

just tried it after the post#190 and got the confirmation letter just now

I tried like 5-6 times and after initial rejections of the code 2ip(gave the option of autumn) it accepted the code.

account is activated and i can access cpanel right now!
