Your AI and it's automated responses are unhelpful.
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.
I'm really trying to begin my website after it was transferred and am struggling setting it up going round in circles..
We are trying to create a website for the last hour or so it crashes all the time. We couldn't do it by ourself
I am new to all of this and the site made it super easy!
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. 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.
Site has been slow, your system cant log into my wordpress site. It loads for 20 min than i get an error.
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 am so confused trying to set up a blog. I have no clue what I am doing.
So far, I'm found your interface somewhat confusing
Could use some typical getting set up, migrated, restore backup guides to help someone navigate their first time through.
Things are not going as smoothly as I would hope. Pages are popping up blank and stuff.
Unable to install a premium theme i ordered. Customer support destroyed website trying to fix it, then signed off and left
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
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.
