Stop popping up then I would give a higher rating, I am still trying to figure out the site and use it.
Customer service is hard to get in contact with. Customer service representatives do not have my best interest. My site was hacked and instead of getting help I was upsold a product I did not want. I found another solution with a different company that had better customer service.
So far, my questions have not been answered. I have had some messages left by helping staff while I have been away from home, but when I try to return their calls, I get a message saying they cannot connect me at this time. So, I still have no idea how to start, and I still have not had help, although I can tell that people have attempted to contact me and I have attempted to contact them. Perhaps when people leave messages, they could also leave a time and day when they can be reached. That would be helpful.
I just recently joined, and I like it. The possibilities this site brings right to your doorstep it is amazing. Great for everyone wanting to do be their boss and making their own brand. I am impressed.
More my fault for computer illiteracy, working on it.
New as of today, host server is not working and am not able to install the them that i also purchased today.
Well I can't log in sometimes like my log in doesn't work. Other than that it is complicated I gotta sign in to my website after I'm already in Wordpress or something so I gotta figure it out other than that the editor and other stuff is good it is just kind of complicated to navigate but yeah also Jesus Christ Loves you and died for you
It is looking good so far but I have a long way to go
A bit complicated. Not sure how things are going just yet.
Great website at the end although not always easy to navigate around building site
Customer support was very helpful in resolving a domain name issue.
Mr. Wardall of the Design Team gave me a lot of excellent information.
So far use of your hosting details has been kindly intuitive.
Wordpress is extremely difficult to use, thought this was supposed to be easy :( taking forever to make just 3 simple pages
Whenever I ask for technical support the agent just try's to sell me more stuff and wastes my time. Your company hasn't given me any confidence to spend any more money on this website so far
Found it a little difficult to navigate the site including assigning my domain, finding the cpanel etc.
They´re asking to transfer the domain, it appears a requirement and I disagree
I'm trying to cancel and am getting the run around. The site is misleading.
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.
