BlueHost Customer Reviews
Review: I have been with Bluehost for a few years, and i wanted to review them because they have been so great. In so far as what they offer as a service, i don't think they differ much from any other hosting provider. However, their customer service is the best i have come across. I occasionally have problems with my account and always contact blueh......Read full customer review
Review: I opened the account sign up price 3.95 x 12 month. After giving you payment information you charged 6.95 x 12 month. Billing tried to negotiate with me 4.95 x 12 month. I took a full refund instead as this constitutes to a fraud. I will be reporting this to Visa and law enforcement....Read full customer review
Review: Blue host, like any other host have those random outages, but it’s for short period of time and they always notify me through email when and why this is happening. It’s great to finally have a host that recognize not only the good but the bad and try to fix it unlike other hosts. ...Read full customer review
Review: BlueHost is terrible because they store their users' passwords on plaintext! Even their customer representatives can read your passwords! That means that they could possibly maliciously use your password to log into your account or other online accounts that use the same password. Because of this, I would definitely recommend against using BlueHost....Read full customer review

Review: In the last week my website has been down inexplicably twice.

Review: I ran into some problems with Blue Host's FTP features; I just could't seem to download at all, or it was happening really slowly. I called tech support and David suggested I dowload and use filezilla. It only took a few minutes and then my site was fully functional once again. I guess it was the BlueHost firewall that was slowing me down. It's goo......Read full customer review

Setting up the basic site was fairly easy, but I was really h......Read full customer review

Review: If you host media, you will want to be very careful with this host. I ran into specific difficulty with public domain media. And by that I mean true and verified public domain media.

Review: We used BlueHost ftp space to collaborate with another company. When that company uploaded a software update patch, BlueHost sysadmins noticed it and locked the account.
