Automated chat boxes aren't ready for prime time. They lead to very frustrating interactions. Your ceaseless advertising is annoying. The login page requires 3 clicks to get to cpannel instead of 1. The rest has been great

Hard to add domain to my existing account. Bluehost keeps assigning web hosting to things I don't want to be hosted.

The user interface could be less confusing for non-technical people like me.

Two of my websites were down for almost 2 weeks; nobody knew why nor seemed to follow-up with me about status. Bluehost did not respond when I asked for compensation for loss of web time which resulted in lost of business.

Everything was great until my site disappeared. Customer service was able to restore it, but at first I could not edit the pages, and once I could edit them, I realized all my buttons and links had disappeared. Thank goodness it is a small site

I have been in contact many times recently to get website backups working. Last time I was assured the problem was fixed. I still cannot see backups or initiated a backup without an error message. Not happy.

Bluehost has been dependable and easy to manage. I appreciate informing when my account will be charged for renewal BEFORE charging my card. This lets me know the company is thinking about the customer.

I renewed everything for the site and yet my layout is now changed and missing images etc since the renewal. So essentially I paid and then come to find out that my site now looks awful. And when I called support the only thing they told me is I have to set up a meeting with the Design TEAM. I have done this before and there was no trouble shoot offered, the only thing I was offered was to pay a few grand or more to work with the design team. That is complete manipulation and a total waste of my money, so much so I'm about to transfer everything to a new site host. Way to provide awful customer care for long term customers!

HORRIBLE customer service! Representatives do not listen, they read from a script. I have been trying to escalate an issue for 3 days!
