None of the The domain I wanted got me wrong when it's not reliable
1. When i try to enter my wordpress it shows error1001. Custom service is helpful and polite. But according custom service I cannot enter wordpress and develop my website until propagation complete
2. When I go into advance setting. The language suddenly become arabic.
Its difficult but will learn, always difficult to log in also
AFTER HEARING ALL THE WONDERFUL REVIEWS I SIGNED UP A FEW HOURS AGO AND I CANNOT OPEN THEMES TO SET UP BLOG. THIS IS VERY FRUSTRATING. I NOW HAVE TO WAIT 1-2 HOURS TO SEE IF CONTACTING A REPRESENTATIVE FOR THE SECOND TIME WILL BE FRUITFUL.
I'm just trying to chat with someone,. And can't get past this rating screen
So far dealing w/ support has been a terrible experience. The person has been terribly slow at responding.
I am having difficulty getting help because English isn't the first language of the people trying to help me. My blog was up and running, and now it doesn't show up. I have had so many problems with this host.
Difficult to navigate getting a professional email account Is impossible
Since I'm so new to all of this, it is a little hard navigating what I am trying to accomplish. But I keep reading great things about this site so I'm not wanting to give up. I'm determined. :)
Issues from point of purchase through point of setup so far
Nice!This customer service staff made me feel very friendly, very good
Too much $#*! on the screen, I can't find out to edit my site.
I cannot log into my Account On2itSoftware.com using Edge V 22H2. As soon as I click in the Password field a 'Bad Gateway' Screen is displayed. Chrome on the other hand has no problems. So it's not your Website. Nevertheless your development team might need to be told, if they are not already aware, so that they can test your site using Edge. With the advent of ChatGPT, Edge could be going to get a whole lot more popular.
Pleas let me know if you are aware of problem.
It's pretty good, but kind of annoying to file share to. I expected more of a simple FTP thing to use, but uploading files works okay. It is stupid that you can't upload folders properly, they end up being 'file' file types instead of folders.
Basic pack is very disappointing so far, I installed a site, worked fine but keeps changing to SSL, even though I have none, except free one year that I can't find anywhere inside panel. I can't access given domain, Invalid SSL certificate Error code 526 keeps popping up...
DO NOT WORK WITH BLUEHOST IF YOU VALUE YOUR CONTENT IN ANY WAY. Bluehost erased all of my content. I provided a backup file, as instructed, and was told by five different representatives to take five completely different courses of action to reinstate my content. Nothing worked, no accountability was taken. Ultimately, I decided to end my relationship with Bluehost and requested a refund. Was denied a refund, even though Bluehost charged me in September, the same month they erased all of my content, and therefore was not hosting anything or servicing me in any way. This is hands down the worst company I have ever worked with... truly bottom-feeder, embarassingly bad customer service. NOT worth your time or money.
So far I'm struggling here. Not as easy as a 5 minute set up like stated
Bluehost website keeps refreshing making it very difficult to get anything done on the website
My new site has only been populated for 1 day and i've already got 13 spam phone calls to make my site. The price was good but this is complete bull$#*!e. At this rate there will be 4700+ spam calls i'll have to block.
