Within 24 hours my query was resolved and the support team were cordial and responsive
My query was answered immediately. I was assured that the team will look at the fake websites sending mails on behalf of bluehost.
Was not able to get my website out of the onboarding portion for the longest time. So it was frustrating right out of the gate to not be able to launch my website. I worked with one customer service agent who didn't really seem like they knew what they were doing. I gave up for a bit. Then tried to work with customer service again, the second person who helped me was able to figure out what the issue was and help me get set up! So far everything has been running smoothly since!
Blue Host Support tech helped me by installing a plug-in that allows uploading videos that were previously too large to upload (>500MB).
I am very satisfied with your service Bluehost. For the past few years dealing with Bluehost has been a very wonderful service. I am fully satisfied with the service. I also believe that there is no other company that would have served in this capacity
For the beginner like me, it been very useful experience
I knew it was something simple but couldn't find it. She showed me how to fix my mistake and a couple of other minor fixes. Bluehost website builder is very user friendly.
My Experience with Bluehost has been really good. When I have an Issue, Bluehost was able to get to me right away and was able to fix my problem.
The agent was helpful but this dispute occurred year after year. I was assured every year for the past few years that a note has been made on our lorinet.info profile that the domain name annual renewal will be at no cost to us yet we kept getting billed then charged.
No thanks no way this is harassment no thanks no way this is harassment
It was a professional and friendly service. The person helping me knew right away what the problem was.
Always get great results with the technical team. I am very happy with the service
They could not fix my problem 100% but gave me an option to work around the issue.
I needed to revert some updates to my website quickly and was able to do so easily.
I hope when we use the chat box, we can have much more interactive way to communicate and to send screenshots.
I took the plunge to quickly move a WordPress website away from another host before I got charged the renewal at twice Bluehost's regular price. I was worried the service would be too simplified to do what I needed but I have full cPanel access. This is the site's 3rd home and it runs far quicker and smoother than it ever has before.
After accidently deleting my entire website, Thankfully the team resurrected a very recent backup and all good now
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.
