Your site indicates that i have no protection. I am asked to pay even more to have my site protected through BlueHost. What the heck am i paying for if not the secure website that you advertised when you got me to choose BlueHost as my hosting site.

Previously, I could log into my email account directly. Now, I must log into my website account and then into my email - several more steps. Plus, my option for Forgotten Password now doesn't work.

There is no direct link for me to manage my site. It would help if you add a direct link to cPanel and maybe some other things. At the moment every time I have to go through a long process of actually managing my site.

Also, I have been struggling to use/access the database. Whichever username/password I use does not work. A bit frustrating.

We have been with Bluehost for nearly 20 year as it had always put service to its customers to the forefront. However, the recent changes to the site reflects a blatant attempt to sell us more products -- which has only made the site harder to navigate. Furthermore, we now get an ongoing onslaught of spam/phish emails relating to our Bluehost account which only adds to the annoyance of this "new and improved" version of Bluehost. It's a shame.

You changed my username without informing me, your caching or DNS is very slow. It takes ages for the site to even begin to load
