I have been unable to see the websites avialable on the website page in Bluehost dashboard. I have complained several times, but the situation is still the same.
My services were really affected, and the overall assistance I got from Bluehost was not really satisfying.
Your costs seems very shady, first year hosting was around 80 dollars, second year it is about 340+ dollars, it makes no sense and it seems like packages cannot be customized!
The user interface is getting harder and harder to use, rather than easier.
Website has been down for over a week. I had requested a restore from backup, to no avail.
Would really like better control and understanding of my renewal costs
For the love of God, you screwed up my SSL on Thursday night. lisa-legalinfo.com. I fixed it Friday a.m. by calling you. You did it again on Saturday. I spent 53 minutes on hold to get you to fix it again. Now, YOU HAVE SCREWED IT UP AGAIN. It once again is telling people that the site is dangerous.
What kind of cluster$#*! are you running, anyway?
I am having a difficulty updated our website. I do not find the format user friendly.
I thought it was beginner friendly, but it is not. Also, I was going to use professional service to help me, but at 2000.00 dollars it is too costly unless you're a multi-billion dollar corporation.
Bluehost informed me they are having issues with propagation. This has impacted my domain, web hosting, and email! To make matters worse, they did not offer any resolution or alternative service options for paid accounts.
I like the overall setup. Sometimes I find it complex to make multiple accounts work and I don't like being sold services over and over again - upselling!
To many paid ad-on spam inside of website builder. So much spam!
Customer support used to be great. Now it's people who have poor English and don't answer my questions
You want me to create a pin, yet it will not take anything i put in, i tried your bull$#*! chat and it was a loop asking the same questions over and over again.
Our website is not working ever since we moved our email to you, cannot find out why
Just checking this account to make sure it doesn't renew.
The account page doesn't always load properly. There have been multiple times where I've had to reset my browser's storage & cookies in order to get it to actually load properly.
Bluehost support absolutely SUCKS! I have used it for a few years for clients websites and my own and I can't wait to switch when it's renewal time.
It has been extremely difficult to get my website back online after switching from Godaddy to Bluehost. It should not be this difficult or require this many calls.
Customer service has been horrible. If it wasn't such a hassle to move everything over to a different host, I would have already done it.
Answer: NO - please do not go with Bluehost, it will save you a lot of hassle. They have the worst customer service and take your accounts offline just so you upgrade for more money even though the thresholds were not met. This means they are just running a scam by taking your websites offline and then offering the solution to get them back online by paying more money to them. My websites were down for 6 days and I've lost hundreds of dollars in income, have to pay my developers for all the work they did and NONE of it will be refunded by Bluehost. I migrated everything away from them and they do not even want to refund my sign-up costs. It is a total scam run but incapable and money-grabbing people whereas the CEO of Endurance group Jeff Fox made $10.000.000 in 2019 alone and the CEO of Bluehost Suhaib Zaheer $2.300.000. Be aware you do not get scammed by them, I've warned you. They are an evil company run by people with zero morals. I am going to report their theft to the FTC, BBB, and law enforcement. I will not go down without a fight and they will regret stealing from me and other affiliates as their reputation sinks in the toilet.
