Bluehost is down again. This has been the second time within 15 days my sites are down. Even Bluehost.com is down. Time for me to get rid of unreliable Bluehost and find a company that is reliable.

I have been using Bluehost for a while. Recently I noticed in the user quota area of cpanel my file count is double of what it should be. The file count is over 50K so I am worried my account will be canceled for too many files.

I signed up for Hostmonster for three years as they were rated high on all web pages on the net. I was six months into my three years when I received a notice from them that I had too many files and was told I had 14 days to reduce the number of files or move my stuff to a new host. I thought bull pucky as they advertise unlimited disk space. A long story short, they ended up terminating my account and never issued a refund for time not used. Well today my buddy emails me (who still has Hostmonster) that their file counting software is inaccurate. On their forum they talk about if you delete files from the control panel the file count goes up. I am not a tech guru but if I delete files shouldn't the count be less and not more? So I feel like they terminated my account for no legitimate reason and stole my money.

Recently my sites have been down for days. On day one I contacted live chat at Hostmonster and they told me the server I was on was under a DDoS attack. OK. So day two I got on live chat and now they tell me my server is having performance problems. OK. Now day three I decide to call Hostmonster and the tech tells me my server is still under a DDoS attack. Not so OK. I ask the tech when might my sites be back online. He says he has no idea. Not so OK. So I ask him if I can move my sites to another server. He told me definitely not. Not OK at all. Day four I call Hostmonster and asked the tech why my sites are still down. He reiterates the server is still under a DDoS attack. And in mid-sentence of me talking, hangs up on me. I call Hostmonster right back and asked why the tech hung up on me. The response was, “Oh Ya. Sometimes our phones do that.” Not OK. What a bunch of BS. Day five, after contacting live chat once again, still have the same DDoS problem. Now on day six, you guessed it, a DDoS problem continues, confirmed by Hostmonster live chat, on my server. Urrrgghh! No its NOT F’N OK.

Plus on day six I was informed by a client my sites were unavailable with a 500 server error, on another Hostmonster account. So again I called Hostmonster and they say a server update killed all my Drupal sites. WTF NOT OK.

I am at my wits end. Just as soon as this crappy company can keep their servers running long enough for me to download my sites and databases, I’ll be out of here.

Hostmonster hasn’t offered me any compensation for all the down time. In fact they didn’t even offer an apology for not providing hosting for an entire week that I am paying for.

This is total BULL SHIT.

Heather is the WORST.

I just had a domain deleted that I haven’t used for over 1 YEAR and was completely unaware of. Instead of getting an email about the situation I just had my account deleted for NO REASON.

Instead of talking with me like a human-being and actually understanding that I have sent over 50 clients to their hosting company over the years, this sour bitter woman just told me ‘You need to find a new host’

I am sending out a mass email to all my clients recommending a new host and since I am their web designer they will follow my lead.

DONT EVER USE BLUEHOST and HEATHER SHOULD BE FIRED BECAUSE SHE JUST COSTED THAT COMPANY OVER TEN THOUSANDS DOLLARS (ANNUALLY).

Truth in Advertising: I am looking for anyone has been booted off of Bluehost because of what they termed as a breach of the terms of service due to the use of copyrighted material. Heather in the Bluehost abuse department claims that they do not allow copyrighted material on their servers. Has this happened to anyone? I believe there is an underlying problem here and would like to know if anyone else has experienced this scenario. Please write me back at billyemmy@aol.com. Thanks.

The “boys” in the bluehost forum seem to be brainwashed into believing bluehost is with out fault. I was banned but I think it had more to do with my avatar than anything else, it disappeared before my banning.
