Bluehost's quality and service has been on a steady decline for years. We are actively trying to be done with Bluehost ASAP.
I am moving to hostinger. Bluehost does not have good support and this server I am on is not working as expected. Domain name is being reset by your tech team daily without my authorization and I am still having issues
I have issues with my clients not receiving emails. It's impossible to resolve the issue with your customer service chat feature.
I tried calling customer service directly from Spain where i live several times, but waitied over 30mins for a rep to assit me. But I eventually hung up after waiting for someone to assist me.
I am constantly being bombarded by Spam emails and I receive emails that a new user has resistered. I receive thse test emails with some strange email address every other day.
What used to take one step (ID and password) to get to email, now takes 5 steps. Not efficient. Why?
I am paying $350 a month to have a pro service. But that is not happening. Ver poor service.
Reliable, helpful...keeps me on track to connect with my readers!
I'm very upset. I was hung up on after being bounced around.
The new UI is not accurate. Being prompted for the same offer each time at log in without a "Do no show me this again" checkbox is needed. Managing domains/website installations and the domain server folder locations is missing. Having several account number for each domain is ridiculous. There's not a way to see how I'm being billed for any service offering.
I understand the new dashboard was geared towards making things easier for people who don't know what they are doing... but its made it more painful for people who did know their way around. Would have been nice if we had a choice to keep the old interface. I still find it buggy
Great hosting. The dashboard is so easy to use. The performance is great and the team are supportive.
Totally frustrated dealing with the lag of security and efficient support. I being thru everything with you guys and lost a lot of money. I
Great
Support great company friendly user. A lot of options
The Chat people are horrible. Terrible delays. Every time I have to write it takes 35-55 minutes. Are they taking care of 20 people at a time? AND they are not skilled enough to do what is needed. It's hit or miss.
I am being prompted to create a pin and verify my phone number to enter into my account. I did not sign up for a system like this when I paid for this service. It is an inconvenience to use this. Every time I login now I have to go through this non sense. I do not want text or phone calls every time I log in to my account. I cannot even access my profile now because of this non sense. You should ask paying customers if they want their account to have this so-called security measure. I for one do not. I wish you had left my account alone.
Our website is going to spam links after 2 to 3 days.
It is working slow, the new version of panel sucks.
In the beggining it was great, then it started becoming worse and worse, I'd give it a one if I didn't have positive expirience in the beggining. I am considering switching to another provider, this is just not going to work in the long run.
Sign-in keeps failing and when finally connected I keep getting an advert I always decline
I have made 2 of my own websites. When I
did run into issues, BlueHost customer service always helped me solve the problem.
Massive login issues on common browsers. Not an inspiring showing from a web hosting company
Bluehost has become very poor in helping customers, we stay on hold for 50 minutes to then find out that the customer support representative is incompetent and cannot help with a simple task, such as making a domain name point to a folder. And many of them are rude and make me responsible for the issues. I have been using Bluehost for many years, and referring it to my web design clients, but today I am having second thoughts. And the new interface is flawed and by default everybody installs wordpress without asking me, I only do HTML websites, NOT Wordpress. I hope you fix that soon.
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.
