We have paid for migration of our site from our current host to Bluehost and the test link to approve the transfer shows the design to be very broken. We have emailed multiple times and not heard anything back for many days or not gotten a response, and it has been extremely difficult to contact anyone in the Transfer team. I have just sent another email, and chatted with Manjusha (who was very kind) to try and resolve this. Overall though, the experience has not been very quick or easy.

I had to call the help desk twice in the first 2 days I signed up for this service. Both times I had an issue with the help desk people understanding what the problem is. I was assigned a weird username against my wish and I'm unable to update my personal profile info because of an ongoing issue that has no anticipated resolution date. You only get one chance to make a first impression and you blew it.

No help, the program is not user-friendly. Expertly building websites. I bought a page for my website for $59.00 and it just disappear. It will not let me make emails for my business.

Keep *******@You've reached the forbidden zone 403@ message. Site editing progress achieved on my iPhone doesn't get synched with my Windows desktop PC. The browser keeps asking me if I'm human every 10 mins. I've never had such problems with my main website on WIX.

This company is a scum! Stay away if you don't want scummer partying over your credit card! On my way to cancel my domain and hosting i stumbled across my previous purchases. I was shocked to discover they charged me for 200$ "for hosting renewal" on the year 2020 (and this is after i paid 89$ for hosting renewal already that same year. I chatted with an agent who said that apparently i purchased a 3 year hosting plan that date. I never did. In fact, i didnt log in into my account for years and didnt make any changes to my plan or anything at all. I checked my email history to see if I got any order confirmation email or any email regarding my plan change and there is no sign of such deal ever been made. There is however an order confirmation for the 89$ hosting renewal that I DID agree to. In different words, they charged me 200$ under the table without me knowing or being notified for a "plan"i never made or agreed too. The chat agent said she doesnt have any proof to show me, email or chat history of any sort. And she refused to refund me for this scum. Don't give your credit card info to these scummers!
