The site is very disjointed - hard to tell what order to do things in
I've been unable to work on my site for months, due to personal issues. I'm trying to start again but seem to be at a loss, can't find any of the themes offered when I got my website and honestly, I seem to need some help. What does it cost for someone to help me get a basic site up for a blog?
Has changed a lot, difficult to set up a domain... The process to assign a domain to a folder is difficult/faulty.
You can have me transferred to the escalation team after I ask for it, since your team has given me incorrect information the last few times I have called. This is an ongoing issue, and I can't get the help I need.
Changing the hosting packages they way they are after being a customer for longer than I can remember has caused monetary and mental stress of having to find a new host and move everything
The platform they had before is better than the one they have now. This one has many problems, direct access to cpanel does not work, new domains cannot be assigned, they always have problems logging into the account, in short, they have many problems. I have been working with bluehost for more than 10 years and the truth is it is disappointing.
I have spent a good bit of time trying to update my contact records for all of my domains. No one could help. Tried again today, several browsers, cleared cache and spent time trying to fix it. The update contact screen is rejecting the very password that got me signed into my account saying it's invalid.
This has by far been the worst hosting experience in my life, importing my website and info was impossible, my email server is always "timing out" and my website is constantly shutting down. My website is down right now.
Customer service is not good. Charges are confusing. Hard to cancel.
Way too hard to navigate. Customer service terrible
Log in is always an adventure. Can't use Safari any more.
Back end interface is sooooooooo slow. And it isn't intuitive. Old data stays on my account looooong after a domain expires. So cluttery. Staying because it's hard to move.
Your Chat people are not interrested in reolving problems, just creating them. You ignore direct email. Bluehost might be good when it works but my experience has been a joke.
Overall we have been pretty happy with BlueHost. The only unfortunate thing has been the lost of our unlimited websites. Since we are a non-profit, it was a good way for us to support our community non-profits.
I have always received quick and accurate support help.
My website is not ready, So can't really give the honest feedback atm. Thanks
Good tech support customer service, hosts all my domains and emails.
Loading speed is to slow 1 second slower then hostinger. Price is to high almost doubled hostinger. C panel outdated it needs a reskin. One star is what you get with old infrastructure and barely any upgrades.
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.
