The service has definitely gone down since the company has been bought out. The team of social media professionals that I work with has had many new complaints.

I wish there could be free themes, the premium themes are just too expensive.

It would be really nice if the billing change form would actually work. This is the second time this year that I needed to update the information and took multiple visits and attempts to do so to finally accomplish the task with out seeing "Please try again later."

The customer service experience today has been terrible. Repeated attempts to contact someone either via phone or chat. I have not yet made contact with a human. The chat box opened, but there was nobody to chat with. Then I was told I would get a call back in 32 minutes. That was more than an hour ago.

I was charged early on a renewal with an authorization out of my bank. I called Bluehost and spoke to an overseas agent who said my transaction was declined. It obviously hit my bank and was not declined, so Bluehost is incorrect. Also, give a warning the day before you take out money so I have the chance to change.

My sites hosting has gone down weekly. When I called the tech gave me attitude and blamed it on the CDN which was not the case.

My website has been having platform issues lately that prevent users from accessing the site when they want to. It is also slow to load.

By far the worst platform I have tried using. 100% not beginner friendly.

This is my third day using Blue Host. The first day, I had trouble accessing the dashboard and was told it was a glitch. I found out the next day, that the person didn't switch my account to shared hosting (from website builder) after he told me he did (the plan switch was my fault because I clicked on the wrong plan).

The second day, they fixed the glitch, but then there was a second issue because I couldn't get to my website to edit it. I was again told there was a glitch and the server was down for people with a certain IP address. We are batting 0 for 2.

We will see what today holds, but it's definitely been frustrating especially when you pay for a service. I'm also afraid I'll have issues w/my website once it's up and running. All staff has been courteous and has tried to be helpful.
