Thanks for the help, issue has been resolved.
Someone had hacked the htacess file and redirected incoming traffic away from my WordPress site.
Seems everything is working again.
After talking to a few more GoDaddy reps they were able to replicate the connection problem and said they would escalate for a fix. I’m due to hear back from them how that went, I’ll update if I hear anything. Hopefully the problem didn’t just magically disappear and there was an actual reason for it.
First rep I talked to said it was likely Akimset cut the service so they could charge me more for a better service which was ridiculous.
Given the fresh WordPress install is failing I suspect it’s not a hack but no idea on what else it actually it.
