Fast and friendly service, very helpful and easy to work with, thank you
Not bad so far, but the "message us" pop up is popped up and annoying.
I regret to inform you that I encountered a situation where I had paid for a website transfer. Concerned about its expiration, given the site's relative youth, I promptly reached out to customer care for assistance. They assured me that there was no cause for concern and promised to guide me through the process, ensuring that I wouldn't incur any additional charges. However, despite their initial assurances, they ultimately failed to provide the necessary assistance. Consequently, the transfer expired, accompanied by a message indicating that if I wished to attempt the transfer again, I would need to pay once more. As a result, I intend to move my domains to a different hosting service once they expire
There are so many moving parts with setting up your website, that it can be overwhelming even for a person with a computer science degree. Things are not clear cut as one would hope with wordpress and installing themes. I used a theme initially set up my site, but my pages do not correlate to my themes pages. Very strange.
I have a critical error in my Website which prevents me from utilizing my 3 booking calendars (top, Main and Studio) Simple booking calendar). As a WP beginner I made a mistake. Otherwise I find the host is excellent. I need help
Not as easy as it is made out to be. Just want a blank canvas and seems I'm unable to undo my first choice.
The email is not that great. Could be improved--it is complicated when you respond.
Not bad yet some features are not available anymore
I have a recurring problem with email port timing out and I'm really tired of having to contact bluehost to fix it.
I had issues in my email account and on Feb, 2,2024 I sent my claim to '*******@support.bluehost.com'. Never got an answer.
Moreover, that same day I asked you to make a change in my account, and I have received 9 messages asking me to confirm change, eventhough I confirmed it the very first time I received the confirmation message.
I need help in both matters.
Thank you very much in advance.

Called customer service last week to inquire about WonderStart. Did you know most of your CS representatives don't even know what WONDERSTART or WONDERSUITE is? Yet you're promoting it on your web landing page!
You still use the same clunky IMPAP/POP options for email you had over a decade ago, and when they don't work, your customer service is extremely slow to help.
Ias a beginner, i find the site set-up quite confusing and hard to proceed through menus!
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.
