Why have you made it so complex to reach your page?
The billing system is super annoying. "Renew" button did not work. No invoices were emailed. Notices that a payment did not go through do not provide any details, just a log in link - this is annoying when one has multiple accounts and services.
At last I succeeded in the renewal of our website support. But it was very difficult to understand how to do it. Not any information when I did a bad clic.
Glad to see my password worked. Now to migrate from premium server
You will not answer me on the chat without 5,000 irrelevant questions first~!~!~!~!~!~!
I can't access my list of domains anymore. Can't add domains to my account or any of my reseller accounts either
The New update? The UI? Is absolutely terrible for individuals with upgraded accounts
I was able to get a chat assistant immediately to attend to me.
It's a learning curve for an ambitious solopreneur but I'm enjoying the experience. I hope to help others do the same
All my websites and server is down, 27 hours and I get no support
Website migration hasn't been super smooth and customer service takes longer than expected due to communication barriers and misunderstandings
Been easy to do things, new to web hosting but learning, and the questions I ask were answered quickly in chat
Wrong billing and refund and lack of support of customer care
I've had an issue that's taken hours of my time to solve and it still is open
I have to contact support for any error and they don't explain enough the problem!
I tried to set up a PIN as requested, I entered a valid 6 digit PIN, and received an error message saying "Something went wrong" and so I had to skip securing my account.
It is Ok so far. My-account login I think it became more secure after activating phone authentication
Annoying upselling, "create PIN" wouldn't accept the PIN I created even though it said it was valid.
I wanted to downgrade to Basic Plan but was told I couldn't. Three years the performance of my Wordpress site with the current plan was horrible, so I left. Customer support was horrible. Now I'm moving my remaining static web site to another hosting service.
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.
