I was having trouble connecting my domain, which was purchased outside of Bluehost. Support helped me realize I chose the wrong option in set up, and the problem got resolved.
I had some questions regarding a mixup (my fault) that I had with my domain registration. Bluehost customer service was very helpful over chat.
I have used Bluehost for several years. I know how important is to have a great hosting for clients. Im a business and marketi g consultant so it is key to oartner with the best.
Was unable to login to my account. This experience caused we to lower my experience. I feel forced to make unnecessary comments
It took long to find the receipt in question. It did not appear on my Blue Host dashboard (so I thought it was a scam), and in general, I discovered months later I was being charged (a small amount) for a product I did not request. Yes, I know it is a very common (questionable) practice and you must uncheck anything you don't need before placing an order.
I had changed my business email address. When I needed to access the Bluehost site, I couldn't receive an email verification. The staff on the chat line were helpful and we managed to resolve the matter and gain access to the site.
Studies show that surveys from happy customers are all but pointless.
Easy to work with Bluehost to transfer website to new owner Yall are knowledgeable and good at making it understandable even to non tech people
Easy to work with. The service has been excellent. Pleasant experience.
Bluehost was extremely affordable and easy to navigate. When I reached out to customer service they were notably helpful. I would recommend Bluehost for anyone looking for a durable, easy to navigate website.
The agent quickly understood what I needed after a brief description. They were able to assist with my task in no time and my mail is working perfectly as intended. Great job!
Used CHAT services. The quick and efficient responses helped me accomplish my goals easily.
Loved the check in to ensure we were still connected.
Very satisfied, no issues ever recorded during the last 3 years now.
I had a couple of problems, but all ok now. They fixed everything I had a problem with.
I'm finally back to having control of my site after a $360 annual purchase and case #*******. It took two calls a week apart to get the matter fully resolved via Sitelock.
The Bluehost team does their job pretty well. You can contact them anytime and they'll respond to it as quickly as possible. I hadn't had any issues the first day I started using their services.
For financial reasons, I changed my website builder and host. As I didn't want to change my domain name, I decided to continue using BlueHost as my domain provider. In my efforts to change my website host, I had to use the chat function to connect me with customer service to help me with several DNS record changes as I has no idea what I was doing. The people they connected me with were knowledgeable, helpful, and always resolved my issues.
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.
