I have been having great difficulty signing in. I have had to change my password multiple times when I know it is correct. Please look into this!
Forcing changes for security reasons, without options, is still forced change. Passwords with a false sense of security. No voice in the matter, just a paying victim. I hate it every time I log in, but this is where I am. Remember, you asked.
Relatively easy to set up. And a huge amount of functionality without spending much more. Although the YITH add-ons available are only the free versions.
Its been a month i have been trying to add a CNAME record for my subdomain and it just wont work. Contacted customer care, they scrambled my access to the site, contacted again, fixed it, contacted again and asked to make sure the CNAME record was added, they confirmed, but site still wont work. Its been a real pain... NGL...
Customer support called me, and supposedly help me with my issue. They where able to *temporary* replace the main domain of my hosting: municipioomanati.com with the actual domain i want to use, is websolutionspr.com. After 15 mins in phone call, i was able to see some changes, but 24 hours later all went back the same, the old domain appeared as the main domain. So. Thanks for nothing/? I guess.
The customer service for tech support has been sub par. I've been a customer for 10+ years and recently I've called in a few times for different tech support and the agents couldn't solve my basic issue, and they weren't knowledgeable or they didn't use active listening to understand what my requests were. I fixed the issues myself after several calls and 4-6 hours of wasted time speaking with tech support.
I have a customer service issue. It is impossible to reach anyone. All I get is an unhelpful bot through the website but no one who can help me with my issue. I bought Yoast on Wordpress and as double charged also through Bluehost. Pls get in touch with me.
I often can't log in to the account and sometimes when I do there is just loads of writing across the screen.
The new way to manage domains makes it extremely tedious and time consuming to update the simplest things like the default billing card. Getting help from the chat feature proved to be fruitless as the agent gave incorrect information and couldn't answer a simple question.
Easy to use in a face fantastic customer service
It started out really good several years ago, but last couple of years have been horrible getting anything done. Customer service reps are all on a different page and takes too long to resolve a small problem.
Graphics for Websites don't appear here in the menu page
Ads for additional offerings should not preclude your advancing to get work done - POPups Are Annoying!
Nice, is a better system of the world for websites and the support teams is very nice
Auto renewals should not be double what I'm used to paying. I switched to buehost from Godaddy to save some money and now, with no warning, yoyu are more expansive than them. I considder this a scam
I have had problems since I migrated my website three months ago with my site. During the migration, I had to call every day for over 2 weeks to get the migration completed. Because they didn't turn something on and now. My website is all screwed up. Because a migration team did something wrong and the customer support cannot answer any questions. They can't even give me a phone number to call or direct email to reach these people. I paid for the migration and it was a complete waste of money. I wish I'd never switched over.
About a month ago, my website was DELETED with no explanation of why. I spent over 2 hours with chat support trying to get it back. They had no explanation to give me of why it happened. They were able to eventually get it back, but this caused a LOT of stress for me, and as a result I no longer trust that bluehost won't just randomly do it again :(
Very good, excellent service for solving my email issue
So, far, so good -- wonderblocks made the Word Press pursuit doable. I only rated 4 stars because BlueHost needs to work with their team more to ensure their familiarity with the various templates and be able to assist when contacted. Also, they should have their representative submit tickets to the various template owners for troubleshooting and not ask the client to perform that task (I only would have chosen the template because it was available through your site, so if you make it available, you should know about its bugs). Other than that, thanks for the ease of use.
The login process, which is annoying, always shows a promotional message, which is annoying!
Though I am happy with purchasing domains with Bluehost, the webhosting and pricing leaves much to be desired.
