I wish there was more transparency with billing. I'll get suddenly billed for things without warning, and for multiple year terms I didn't agree to. I've tried to look up my subscription status for different offerings on the website, but didn't find the information I needed.

Trying to get my email fixed. Support worked with me yesterday. Said they would call back or email in 30 minutes. It's been 29 hours. Still not working.

My site was reverted randomly to the day I signed up with you. None of the changes I've made since then can be restored. No explanation has been given as to how that could happen or why it happened. My site a records were pointed to a default IP and the SSL cert was removed. No explanation has been given as to how that happened. This is rediculous.

The interface is confusing. DNS Management is not easy to access for delegated sites.

Bluehost initiated a number of changes (user ID, etc.) and did not inform me, so I'm having a lot of trouble getting in

I have had a horrible experience with Bluehost, especially in the past few months. I've even expressed this on quite a few support calls and asked to speak to a Manager. None would return the call. Finally, after 4 or 5 promises of a Manager callback, I called and refused to hang up until I spoke with a Manager. I ended up speaking to Ritz. She helped clear a file backup issue but did not care in the slightest bit about my concerns and complaints regarding your company's horrendous service. I am truly thinking of going back to GoDaddy or some other hosting company.

Bluehost refuses to reduce my licenses in Google Workspace to two licenses. I will be moving away from Bluehost shortly.

I'm working on a blog website for my sister. I have over 50 years of experience in computer programming and I maintain a code-heavy ASP.NET website. I have found the whole process with her blog incredibly confusing and difficult. She would have no hope doing it for herself. I don't understand how non-programmers can possibly configure a blog.
