Email account doesn't work since paying for it.
Service via chat is horrible.
Website platform is too complex.
Can't even see your email on your iphone cell phone.
I don't like your landing page. I don't want to have to figure how to click to the page where I can access wordpress. Also, you have to scroll down too far to view my specific site.
Nice hosting. I like the file manager for it's logical usage

As a beginner to blogging, Bluehost has made it possible for me to get things started!
Had to redo a lot of content on my wordpress-built site when I transferred it and the original offer of help from Bluehost, well: the chat was useless, I just got directed to a help page I'd already seen. The live representative phone call that was scheduled there at the beginning of my signing on didn't happen (no call at scheduled time, and two hours later a rep' called mostly to market services I don't need. But otherwise, seems all right...
Some changes in the Admin UI are good, some are a step backwards and tend to obscure standard features
Too many problems to list. Your tech support said to hire a website developer. Even though everything worked fine for years and i didn't make any changes.
Bluehost is horrible. We are currently looking for a new host and will be switching everything out ASAP. Nothing will change our mind.
Unannounced changes to billing and login experience caused confusion and frustration
Been trying to solve my problem for 2 hours. On hold again.
I have had so many issues with Bluehost and my email and websites not working and spent hours and weeks trying to get support from tech and anyone who would listen and would take months and months of persistency on my end while losing time and money with my biz and never once do they act concerned or even apologize or follow thru from rep to rep and call to call it has been daunting@
I am experiencing an ongoing problem with hosting my website. Despite multiple online and live consultations with your customer support, the issue is not resolved. Your representatives assure me they will fix the problem and they never do.
Every year I come to Bluehost to get tax information every yearsit's so clumsy that I waste an hour trying to fine what I want. This time I wanted to upgrade my Visa. At this point, I'm still looking to where to do this!
I wish you would be more proactive before stopping my account.
It's very slow to get to what I need to do, but not particularly difficult.
Customer support has been very bad lately. One guy did go out of his way to help my but if you look at my emails, chats and calls you will see it has been bad.
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.
