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.
Logging in is a pain. You have given me a user ID that i did not select. My password doesn't work and the reset password link gives no error feedback
Lately I've been having issues with my websites. From not working properly with the SSL certificates, also the staging environment and the bluehost plugin have a lot of errors lately, the support has been bad due to with truejoyeria.com they messup with my site and then i need it to restore it from scratch. Also slowness in all of my sites.
Signing in has become so painful. Yesterday the code you sent didn't work. Today my credentials weren't recognized at first.
You changed our package mid-contract and caused a serious problem for our company.
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.
Pls give me control panel option early on without unnecessary pages in the way
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.
I am very unhappy with my login process. I have to call Tech Support WAY more often than not.
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.
New login is complicated, screens are not intuitive, all designed to make you click in places to pay. Will not renew
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
Just starting and having trouble getting everything set up
The user interface has changed enough that nothing I wish to do is accessible in any kind of intuitive manner
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.
Please stop with nagging ads after logging in - annoying af
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.
