Great! We are having the best experience since we got bluehosting! Thank you and hopefully to continue protecting our assets and data.
I'm a new on the platform, and we are migrating now. Hopefully everything will be ok. Thank you!
Easy to understand and work around platform, happy with my experience
The changes that Bluehost has made in the past year have made me choose another--better host. I am removing all my sites and all my business from Bluehost. It's too bad because I've been with the company since 2005. Shame what happened to this formerly awesome company.
Good, but sometimes I am unable to login to my account
Tough to manage without the live support, which is expensive.
Since you've changed your interface, nothing makes any sense any more.
Just issues site speed and SSL not updating in time so that it doesn't affect site integrity. A lot of robot txt so many posts from the beginning we're not searchable. My site was not being crawled, and so, not "seen," and I didn't know. It really set me back.
I have not been able to receive my emails and have contacted BH several times about this.
So far so good. When I did have an issue, it was corrected. Although I had to keep going to different agents to get the problem resolved, there was one who didn't stop until the problem was fixed.
I would like to see the suggestive ads that pop up on login go away.
Email is really slow, search is slow and doesn't download the attachment
Very efficient and polite responses received throughout the interaction. Prompt answer to questions were given. I was very pleased with the service provided.
I am trying to renew my payment but the website doesn't accept my card.
I can't configure apple pay and no one seems to be able to figure it out.
Many technical issues and support service is very slow and always cut due to long waiting
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.
