Pretty good access and usability

Pretty good access and usability. Every now and then it can be a bit slow to login (but not too often).

I think my experience has been OK

I think my experience has been OK. There is a huge learning curve and I don't quite understand everything yet.

I mistakenly entered the inxorrect name in the domain name field when setting up my shared server. I have corrected it myself several times and also have called in and asked a bluehost associate to correct it. In either case, the domain name continues to revert back to the original incorrect domain name that I entered when setting up the account. The same thing happened with my mx records. They reverted back to bluehost's default mx records multiple times despite me changing them to the correct mx records. This caused the email to stop working and many emails were not received as a result.

Your customer service is lousy

Your customer service is lousy. Your interface is outdated. I'm switching to DreamHost as soon as I have time.

I've had SO MANY issues with Bluehost. Last time my website went down, it took me 2 tries with customer service to get it back, and the second time they wiped all of my settings without re-adding them or letting me know. So my business email (where I make my money and run my life) wasn't receiving emails. They cut off my email service. Now my Google DNS tag is gone too.

I am unable to sign in directly to my email from this page; https://my.bluehost.com/cgi/email_manager. It will only let me go through the hosting site and then to the cPanel.

I was lied to on the phone when we renewed. We were told that if we renewed we could get a refund in 30 days.

Bluehost allowed our domain to be sold without our consent. The Legal department and Abuse Department has been radio silent on the issue. Their tech support closed cases without it being resolved. Their tech support suggested to us that another support technician at Bluehost was involved in the theft.

Miscommunication between personnel regarding the site migration to complete misinformation by the first person we spoke with by phone. It's taken well over a week to migrate what is now a one-page site. Now I can't receive or send email and though we followed the "diagram" it's still not working.:-(
