Only complaint is how long it takes Chat to get down to brass tacks with a problem, what with the (too) many multiple choice options, e.g., “Did this answer your concern”. That said, it seems that B... See more

Excellent service and support!

Hi all. Once again, I was convinced that the Bluehost service is one of the best not only in hosting services, but also in an excellent support service, especially the specialist Thousif Mahamed helped me a lot!

I reached out for help with an issue on my WordPress site regarding a blog post not showing up and saying it does not exist. Thousif listened to the issue and made sure it was fixed. They let me know the issue would not happen again but if it did, they let me know the steps to fix it.

Capable Service Representative

Today I was offered a free .online domain for a year. Pretty nice. I wanted to attach that to a specific domain (I have several) and representative Thousif M helped me to accomplish that through Blue Host's chat app. So nice to have things taken care of for me by someone capable.

Migration of Wordpress.com site

Attempting to migrate a wordpress.com site to bluehost wordpress hosting. I thought this woud be a standard usecase and very straight-forward. I read a few articles on bluehost that talked about an Import/Export plug-in, that failed. I then tried the manual migration process, also failed. Finally I turned to support. While I love that the support is 24/7, not all support reps are equal. I probably had 4 interactions with various people at bluehost before I spoke to Thousif Mahamed who was very easy to communicate with and seemed like he was focused on working with me vs doing multiple things at once, other agents seemed distracted/busy and also like they were responding to the wrong person.

Thousif Mahamed, was the one who assisted me. I appreciate everything that I was helped with, and I couldn't be more grateful and excited.

Great customer service by Thousif Mahamed

I was helped by Thousif Mahamed with a billing issue, and he got it resolved for me to my satisfaction. The only reason I put 4 stars not 5 is because the issue happened in the first place, but regarding Thousif's assistance, it was 5 star. Bluehost overall is great, I just have not had time to work on any content and as a result have to temporarily halt my service.

Product Page is Not Responding

I had an issue with WordPress. When I clicked on the product page, it said the page was not responding. The guy who solved this issue (Thousif Mahamed) really deserves for this job. Bluehost should increase his package because he solved my issue in the minimum amount of time. Thanks Thousif.

My experience with the service today was good.
My English is not very good. Thousif Mahamed was patient and helped me with all the doubts and difficulties I had.
The system is delayed in displaying responses from agents. It's time to improve that
