Continuous issues today
February 12, 2023

Continuous issues today - transferred my domain from wordpress to bluehost as I had read positive things about bluehost website hosting packages. Issue after issue with domain name, website editing, error messages, payments - not good at all. Very poor customer service on live chat with extremely slow replies and minimal help offered

I am working with Angel on the support line. She is giving me very different directions than my friend received to do the exact same support of moving a GoDaddy Domain to Bluehost and then start a WordPress website. It continues to go to GoDaddy.

48hrs after setting up my domain, I received 18 spam phone calls in 2.5 hours. I went onto chat to get help and waited for 20 minutes, no one arrived, so I called. Sat on hold for 25 more minutes before I gave up and nearly trashed my whole project.

Overall smooth transition, but website migration is slow and the chat bot is poor. Long wait times for a representative are unfortunate.

The beta editor is not very streamlined and seems very buggy.

I've tried other WordPress hosting services, and couldn't get past the install. Blue host lets you come into the WordPress dashboard right away with no experience needed

First time starting off here and I have spent 5 hours on your site without being able to build/customize! What a shame!

At this point I am not able to edit and the message portal response is slow. Have spent money on something that was supposed to make set up easy and I am frustrated

Bluehost sucks
February 11, 2023

One problem after another. Terrible customer service. As an example - I contacted Bluehost recently because my website doesn't load. Chatbot never answered. Meanwhile I was on hold for phone for 22 minutes - then got cut off. Typical. I HATE this f----ng company!

I like using BlueHost so far, with how simple and easy to use for emails specifically; I'll have to take some time to master everything you guys have to offer. C:

You people can't even verify my domain name and email address within 48 hours? Pathetic

None of this makes sense
February 11, 2023

None of this makes sense. I enrolled in a course, and hopefully that will help. The themes here are very confusing. This is not easy.
