Enjoying the hosting service so far and look forward to even better price and service.
Yesterday my website doesn't work, my customer can't buy my product
As far as I know, bluehost has no equal in the commitee of host companies. Their customer service and technical know-how are exceptionally great.
No good speeds or response of websites. CS needs improvement too.
Not having luck understanding or building the site. Maybe more guidance.
Disappointed to only have 1 choice of style on the first option I chose. Now I have found the option with a variety of themes, I am still disappointed that I can't see a preview of how my site could look. This is not the first time I have struggled with setting up this site.
Site still loads slow and goes down quite frequently
I have tried repeatedly to update my credit card in Billing, but I keep gettin g a message stating that the update cannot be done at this time. Very frustrating.
Worked with alot of hosting providers. Service at Bluehost is top of the line. No hidden fees or entrapment, easy access and best best best support!
Great platform to use and also great support system
Slow, repeatedly loses cookies, dark patterns against cancelling autorenew, buggy survey popups that aren't actually interested in negative feedback.
It would be better to be able to check the website capacity at any time
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.
