I wanted to put a little humor into it as I’m still laughing over my deactivated and soon to be gone account. Hopefully others will see the other side to Blue host and move on to someone else before falling. |

I have ever seen on the web. The product they sell is useless by all accounts and I suspect that most of their money comes from naive new customers who are just going off the big name.

Had hosted with bluehost for years without problems, and paid way more than I should have given I was really only using email. Hadn’t logged in for a while since I’d moved my primary email, and realized my payment had lapsed by several months. Called in to customer service. Computer keyboard clicking in background … Yeah, that account got deactivated. Ok, I’d like to reactivate it. More clicking … yeah, do you have a backup of that account. Why no, I don’t, it was just email. More clicking … Yeah, its been deleted. More clicking .. and the archive was good for about 30 days …. thats gone too. And oh, your domains, we released them back into the public. Well, I guess my business with bluehost is done. Customer service ….. well that would be one f*ck you now wouldn’t it… click, click, click. I’d suggest you skip the free deals and find a real hosting company rather than this penny ante stuff

Hello guys, blue host is bad got 2nd strike, why the hell they bother about getting complain from contains owners, they can simply contact me and ask me to remove them. just imagine the traffic that i lose per day untill i get the site back.. i will never go for bluehost better find a hosting from Europe.

guys please let me know if there is any hosting provider without all these bull shit..

Thank you

I signed up to bluehost as a platform for wordpress,now they have added a simple script shop and it seems that unless i pay for this crappy shop thing and several other things my posts don’t get posted.I paid £107.00 for a years hosting have been trying since march to get a refund but they just blank me and im really annoyed,as far as im concerned they are no more than thieves as they will not give me my money back,and will also not even acknowledge me,i wouldn’t recommend this shower of crap to no-one.Tracy-ann Davies still waiting for refund!!!!

I should add, my new host, when all of a sudden my site started using roughly 160 GB of data transfer per day while I was away on vacation (a video went viral) simply disabled access to the one file causing the issue. This I was fine with. I do not pay for that kind of bandwidth and I appreciated that they we able to find a way to solve the problem without any threats or anything.

OK, my story is a lot older, but a friend was going to set up some hosting for a client and was going to use bluehost. Luckily he mentioned it to me first and I told him to stop. I was looking for proof other than my own and found this website, so I thought i would add my story as well.

So, back in 2001, I was a developer on a Counter Strike clan/Server website. When the game patches came out back then, downloading was REALLY slow due to slower internet connections, and the huge amount of people who were downloading the same file at the same time (this was well before the Steam days.) — Anyways, to solve the issue a lot of clan/server websites would host the patch to distribute the load. We did that. We were popular enough that it apparently warranted killing our account, and not letting us even download all the fan submitted art, or backing up the latest version of our database. Just boom. Gone. No refunds, nothing. Plea as we may, we were given no warning, nor were we given any attention after the fact.

That is enough for me to never consider using this service again. It looks like nothing has changed.
