Many problems after moving all of my domains over to bluehost. While customer support is easy to get a hold of, the problems have not been resolved several months later.

Your system of WordPress is over the top disfunctional. Just loading a simple page will not function.

I've experienced interrupted service before. The representative was dismissive and unhelpful, blaming it on coding. No my website is glitching again which potential clients are judging my services on. This is unacceptable and I am losing clients based on this amateur service provided by Bluehost. I will be switching.

Overall I had a terrible experience with bluehost and would tell everyone to stay as far as possible.
All those comparison sites for hosting providers, they are all bought and not really objective.

Bluehost had a server issue and deleted my whole database and everything was gone. Took over a week until my email and website was working again.
2 months later, website was down again, now it was maleware because they don't protect their server, so down the line they can sell you SiteLock for $300 a year per site. I had the exact same website on another hosting provider for 2 years, never had a single problem with maleware.

Support is not helpful, constantly makes promises but nothing holds up.
They tell you how important 2FA is to secure your Bluehost account, but they don't have 2FA available...
Find another solution and save yourself massive headaches!

New "AI" interface on my Websaites has lots of issues, one of them is the domain names configuration, another issue is that we can not create and administrate easily new wordpress instalations inside a website or other apps, many jam domains in routs that shoud not be pointing to files, and more

The site is not user friendly, I do NOT want two and three step verification and it is not a simple platform--give me a break.

I don't understand why you have a chat box if you don't even respond to it. You guys claim you're there 24/7 but when I attempt to get assistance via the chat box, it goes without answer. Your customer service deserves less than a star but since you don't have a negative rating, I gave you the lowest this would alow.

There are constantly IT issues that effect me being able to edit my website. Each time I have to start a chat while it's taken care of and I'm told each time that there won't be any more issues and then there is only days later.

Your website is full of bugs/errors. There is some sort of caching feature that makes it very obnoxious to try and make any edits/changes to my site. Your support is slow, and don't always seem to have a firm grasp on what is going on.

It's a nuisance to have to refuse an offer every time before getting to the screen I want.
