I am so disappointed in working with you all moving our shared server to a VPS. It's been a disaster.

I have had zero luck with bluehost in the last month
June 16, 2022
Previous review

I have had zero luck with bluehost in the last month. Sites go down because of server maintenance and the customer service is non existent. I started using bluehost in 2017 because they had the best phone number to call with the most competent people on the other end. Now you get directed to a noisy call center in the Philippines with someone who not only is hard to understand but doesn't understand most basic website issues. Not to mention that today I requested a call back at 10:50 am with an estimated 35min wait time. Its not 12:35pm and I have not heard back from bluehost. I had someone try to help via chat and when I needed to wait for verification that an email had gone through he said he was going to be disconnected after 5 min. Now, I've finally learned that the "fix" did not work.

It is not possible to find thing now, even your support team cannot find where are the old options, and If you want to add or change the domain record it is a nightmare

I don't like the ad that pops up every time we log in with the larger button committing us to a service we do not want, nor need. It's ridiculous that a site we pay so much for has ads. We'll be looking for another service soon if the ads continue.

I'm annoyed by the "wouldn't you like to upgrade" in my face each time. It's harder to get to cPanel to manage e-mail than it used to be. Harder to get to FileManager.

I liked having my 2FA through my app/password manager rather than a cell phone. Also, the login just started working today on FF. This whole new UI doesn't seem as well polished.

Please stop with the stupid page trying to trick me into paying for privacy protection. It is incredibly annoying. Once would be acceptable, but every time I log in is frustrating.
