You are in the middle of changing things, I guess, and things are not working well.

We already have more passwords and pins than it's possible to memorize and now Bluehost is adding a Pin as well. Additionally this pin doesn't allow for 'repeated numbers' but that means that this pin would need to be different from all others, further complicating the experience. On top of this it used to take between 3-4 clicks to access email but the "updated" site requires 5-6, adding additional layers of inefficiency and frustration to an already wonky online experience.

It's too complicated just to come on here and check emails. Also that bell sound is so annoying.

The old site design was much easier to navigate. It seems we are charged to death now for every little thing. Today wanted to redirect domain and the tool is gone. What a pain.

I don't understand why my posted WordPress blog does not have the same formatting as when I created the original blog. I have not been able to get an answer from your Chat or by speaking with two customer service representatives. I was told that I could probably get the answer to my question if I paid for an upgraded plan. I do not think I should have to pay for the answer to this basic question, as this has been the case since I began using Bluehost several years ago.

The admin site is a mess. I can't log in half the time and once I'm in, I can't find my way to what I need.

Off and on problems logging in and getting my verification code to be accepted. I don't appreciate having to keep contacting support for help. It's time consuming and keeping me from getting my work done.

There is so much salesmanship-I can't tell the difference between what I should do and where you want me to keep spending money when I'm not making any money.

I have been trying to resolve my email issue with bluehost, have spent more than 20 hours with no results. And this issue is ongoing. I have problems, it gets resolved, then the same issue occurs a few months later

I have continual trouble with my Bluehost account. The changes have not been positive. Now it is difficult to login and I keep getting error messages. I have to switch browsers and even then functionality is unreliable. The upgrade was not tested well.
