I have tried multiple times to resolve an issue related to the renewal of my websites. It has been three months and it still has not been resolved.

The ad that says your information is exposed, and want to sell a privacy app, should be discontinued.don't need you advertising my information to prove a point
Better than average need wordpress blog template that does not require logging in to comment on postings
You got a stupid pop up when logging on that I will never use.
I have not been able to get into the cPanel Email for over a day. We have business to conduct and this is preventing my employee from getting access to their email.
Nobody will help me getting google workspace set up. I purchased from another vendor and everytime I call or chat, I'm told that I'm required to purchase workspace through bluehost in order for them to connect. That is simply not true as I'm trying to work with the other vendor. However bluehost has offered NO technical support and is impossible to work with; I can't get anyone who speaks good English, they just repeat "I'm sorry for your trouble" type language back at me and tell me I have to buy workspace through bluehost. If the other vendor isn't able to help me today during my meeting, I will be requesting a refund of my bluehost domain.
So far I have been with Bluehost for 10 years and I enjoy being with them. Server uptime is never an issue and most things are simple to do.
However lately the customer service and knowledge level seems to have gone down a bit.
Average, had lots of issues getting email to work, which should not happen.
Built my first website this week through my Bluehost account using WordPress. So far, it's been pretty easy to understand. Plan to "publish" it today. Let's hope all goes well as it has been so far.
Extremely slow site, especially for the price. Seriously considering moving.
You downgraded what we paid for, unlimited domains, unlimited storage to three domains.
I couldnt access my account for two days and it made me a lot of problems
It took 11 days to to help me get back into my account despite many correspondence
Can't get email to work. Has worked for years but not this week
Support is worse and they response time after starting the chat is 10 min for each and every reply I'm using bluehost from last 8 years all of the sudden they stopped my hosting account and I try to renew no one helped me
I keep getting texts that my server is being changed by someone I don't know. It's very frustrating
Some issues with posting prevents a higher rating.
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.
