I have had an overall great experience with Bluehost. There have been a few things that I couldn't figure out on my own and I have had to get in touch with customer service for help. I will say, I would like it if the customer service reps would explain what they did to fix things, and how they did it, because I personally would like to learn to be able to fix things myself in the future. But overall, still a very pleasant experience.
TERRIBLE customer service and countless mistakes made by them which have caused me to waste a ridiculous amount of time fixing, nobody speaks or understands English properly. Shockingly disappointed in your company, never once heard back from management about all the complaints i've put in.
My email has not worked for 2 days. YOUR website is not working properly, so cannot even make corrections there. The "call you back" customer service does not work - no one calls me back!
As a beginner, I thought the slow loading and down times as I was building my new website were my fault. It didn't take much research to see how many times BlueHost's server has been down, leaving customers in the lurch for hours. What's worse is that there's been no communication by BlueHost to users.
It's a bit scary for this non-techy granny. But I'm hanging in there.
Good morning, the service is not optimal, especially since Friday, May 13, when they had problems, and currently I continue to show slowness in the servers and here in the company we are thinking of moving the page to another hosting.
Website helps little but the format
Is fairly easy to learn.
Technical problems takes too long to be solved, but people that help me they were good, kind, they fight to help you but sometimes problems just happens... I like Bluehost.
I've been using many hosting for years. Switched to Bluehost and was disappointed with how often either the hosting or the site stops working. Surprisingly, the weaker companies with which I worked in Ukraine are much more stable.
Cool and user friendly interface. Easy to navigate and also get adequate support
My website has been crashing a lot since I created it yesterday. Also it is extremely slow. I reach out to the chat support team but the person was not very helpful. So far it has be a stressful experience with bluehost.
Problem and issues after another including breaking my site and still no fix

Quality of technical support has declined since I joined many years ago which I have been sorry to see.
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.
