Slightly confusing at first but getting the hang of it
I am trying to get my website back up and I have bene on a call for an hour so far and the person I am speaking with is on a terrible line and all I can hear is distortion and I cannot hear the person, and now after 1 hour on this call they have gone and I am back to square one with my issue... site down, and I now have to start over.
Very confused about where the website that I just created disappeared!
I have had nothing but issues since joining Bluehost. Outbound emails sitting in the outbox. Emails service randomly going down. I would like all this to be resolved. Thanks!
Bluehost are excellent from day one. Always there and go out of their way to make sure everything is running smoothly with my site. Thanks Bluehost :)
Not bad
Thank you
Please type a quick message about your experience so far
I am trying to set up my website but there is some type of problem. Whenever I click the chat icon, I am logged out of the site and there is no chat client.
I don't find the website and services easy to access/user friendly. Everything lately has been slow and glitchy on Bluest.com and some days I haven't even been able to log on. I have had zero trouble however browsing the internet or using the websites. Just Bluehost.
The person working to "help me" put another theme and mad buy side A MESS! This is so frustrating I would NEVER recommend you.
You do not let me change my email. Expiration notices went to an outdated email and the domain expired. Your site is not clear or helpful.
I'm just getting started. Apparently my email accounts were hacked, they all seem to want me to enter passwords this morning. Not normal.
I write to cancel service and had no response, Today I received a very expensive bill renewing the service I DO NOT USE for long time, The company has been closed since last year, no domain is associated. I cancelled and You renewed it for a 671.76 price tag. Are you crazy that is a rip off. I Request a refound.
I have enjoyed using Bluehost so far. Great customer service, quick to respond and very helpful. Easy to use interface. Affordable. Very happy.
Stop opinion counts popup every time I hit the home page... very annoying
The customer service is crap. I understand that it is outsourced but its truly ridiculous that it takes 2 interactions sometimes to remedy a situation or are told that its not their problem
Your pop ups are a pain. Let me do some work first
Just like on my desktop, no problems recommending!
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.
