Westhost is a nightmare Westhost sends an email saying, "congratulations, your website migration is complete and was successful." Not until several screenloads below does the email say that you must take action within just 7 days or they will take down your website and delete your emails. No forewarning. No urgent reminders. No subject line warning. Furthermore, it says that you must update your DNS records but not exactly what changes to make. The email migration itself causes problems, with email readers on windows, Android, and Apple not correctly reflecting folders and their contents. In short, a nightmare. Yet you cannot get though to costumer support by chat, phone, or email, which is undoubtedly flooded from the mess they have created for their customers. At the same time, hosting prices are rising. In short, time for a new host. Suggestions?

I made some mistakes and Tech support saved me I tried to do something I really know what I was doing. I reached out to technical support, they fixed my problem and then broke something else. They kept in constant contact with me while everything was resolved. This is not the first time they have helped me fix problems due to my own incompentance.

Scott L Scott L. was extremely helpful to assist me with switching back and forth between PHP 7.4 and 8.0 to identify issues we were having with a WP theme. We were able to expose issues with the theme to confirm our assumptions it is time to migrate to a new WP theme that is more compatible and supported by developers for PHP 8.0. Scott was patient, willing, and articulate and providing easy clear support.

Only Samson could help After months, and I mean months, of trying to get my domain to get and send emails, finally Samson was the only technician that could help me. I truly was about to go to GoDaddy because no one knew what they were doing. Samson knew right away. I wish I had got him as a tech months ago. An email should be sent out to everyone telling them how to fix someone that is having a problem like I was.

WestHost tech support is great WestHost tech support is ALWAYS saving me. They are knowledgeable, fast, friendly, and they get the problem solved quickly while teaching me a little something more each time when I have questions. Oh, I left out patient! Because I'm only moderately tech savvy, they are able to answer my questions at my level of understanding. Great support is why I stick with WestHost.
