See Case No. *******; my site was down for multiple hours without advanced notice.
Trying to contact you by using the chat link that you have sent me but it's not active. Trying to regain access to my email account that I had transferred to your host (my account expired) and can't find a solution.
1 hour navigating your website to renew hosting and all I get is upgrade. I'm not interested I n upgrading, I just want the sam 3 month plan I've had for many years.
It scares me because there's one time where all my websites went missing. Then came back after 1 hour
Hosting is also great but the best is your tech support. They always helped me in any issue.
Site takes a long to very long time to load. Recent outages where i lost data as a result didnt help. 24/7 help doe not exist.
Time you focused more on some quality of service rather than just blanket advertising to get revenue and customers you cant service properly
So far so good but I usually faced the Error 520 and 522 from time to time.
It is easy to work. But learning is possible only after several attempts.
Need to be able to put a prepared doc up on builder without it being cropped so much it becomes useless
Awesome experience and fast service, swift operation and responsive interface
The customer service has been impeccable. The platform tools are easy to use & intuitive.
Over-all, it's good. I'm just asking the question if I could receive guidance on updating Joomla.
How do I change plans before I renew? I would like to downgrade to basic.
No other payment option for billing. And credit card and paypal is not working. Atleast you provide netbanking or debitcard option
I havent been able to create my website - somehow it restarts every time it "creates" it
Too often the site has been down, both mine and BlueHost. It's slow at time. Every time I go into a page to edit, it reloads twice. I have to log in again when accessing email.
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.
