Clyde listened well, kept me updated, made changes where he could and wrote tickets for what he could not change. Kind and patient gentleman.
Thanks for helping me access my account and add email services
It was a simple matter. Nothing special. Nothing that God's honestly requires you to bother me with all this BS. Thanks.
My experience went extremely well thanks to your dedicated staff ready and willing to help with any problem I might have.
Helped with this issue but the overall problem of authenticating with MailerLite has not been resolved. Not really sure what I need to at this point. Mailerlite says it's a Bluehost issue. This has been an issue for 2 months.
I was made an administrator of our site a number of years ago. Someone else was actually doing the work on the site. They quit. I needed to go in and make changes and there had been changes since I last worked in the system. I got the assistance I needed to access the items I needed to change.
The lady was very nice and helpful. I want to thank her for her help with the whole process!
My issue was resolved in 1 call. My support agent was helpful.
The best web hosting for WordPress. Everything works, support always helped me
I would like to express my sincere satisfaction with the attention received from a technical support operator (unfortunately, I do not remember his/her name) during a recent interaction.
I needed to modify the IP address of the "DNS Records" for my website, but I was not clear on the procedure to do so. The operator provided me with exceptional assistance, guiding me kindly and patiently through the process.
In particular, he/she provided me with a direct link that took me exactly to the section where I could make the IP change. Thanks to his/her precise guidance, I was able to complete the task successfully and achieve my goal.
I greatly appreciate the operator's willingness to help me, his/her technical knowledge, and his/her ability to explain the steps in a clear and simple way. Without a doubt, his/her intervention was essential to resolve my problem quickly and effectively.
I needed assistance and it was provided perfectly, but some issues of Bluehost made it a little extra difficult.
Nothing to tell. Cannot recall anything.----------
Overall I had a really good experience. If you are having trouble with anything or not sure what you are doing, the CHAT option helps a lot. That should be your first option.
Your customer service rep really solved my problem and was very helpful!
V.good in general i would like to see more languages supported in the c-panel
Good for you to use for your business. Helps website with clarity and informational purposes
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.
