I was unable to get help migrating my site, told to pay for an appointment. The link sent was how to schedule a paid appointment for later this week. Very unhelpful as I wanted to migrate today. Ended up having to delete everything and start over. THANKS A LOT.

Very hard to use, I spent probably four hours trying to open the editor for the website, turns out the theme im using is conflicting with the plugins, and there were no help from bluehost whatsoever. Things are slow and confusing. But I have to admit, bluehost is cheaper.

So far customer service has been great. I haven't had a chance to do anything much, though.

Absolutely awful service
January 30, 2023

Absolutely awful service. Nothing is working, no issues have been resolved after speaking with CSA's multiple times I am wholly and completely unsatisfied with this pigs dinner of a service that you offer.

Problem during account setup has made domain configuration a complete nightmare. Not worth the hassle. Moving to another provider.

I keep having problems logging in
January 29, 2023

I keep having problems logging in. It says my credentials are wrong but they're not. I wrote down my login when I created it. When it finally lets me login the actual process of working on the website is so difficult and confusing. This is not the first website I create but it is the first using blue host and I have to say so far it has been a hassle.

I'm excited to get started with my blog, but disappointed that my WordPress name was automatically assigned based on my Bluehost credentials and now I can't change it. The only communication I got from Bluehost was a receipt for my payment. It would have been helpful to receive communication about setting up WordPress on my own accord, not having it automatically assigned.

Bluehost is well known and easy to use, even for me (someone who has little knowledge with building websites). Its a great platform!

I've had issues accessing my web site from the start. I keep getting an error whenever I click on any of the links to customize or update my page. So far, my experience has not been very good.

I expected to recieve a free migration of my website from another host, I feel I have been misled by Bluehost. I am now told I can pay for the migration or do it myself manually. Thank you for those options. I will try & migrate the website manually but if I cannot do it I will cancel my subscription within 30 days
