GBWesthost 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?

GBWe have been out of businsss for four… We have been out of businsss for four days due to this migration. All support from Westhost is nil. We submitted tickets and they get closed. What's going on? If you are going out of business, please let us know so we can move on instead of losing the business we have due to Westhost not doing their job or informing us of how to fix this. Why do I keep getting kicked out of support chat when I become number one? Just answers, please.

GBAfter 20+ years with Westhost After 20+ years with Westhost, I am currently locked out of all access to my domain and email, due to Westhost doing a migration of my email that forced a password reset. I'm supposed to log in to my control panel to change the email password, BUT that requires me to enter a 2FA code that is delivered by, you guessed it my email! My inaccessible email! Westhost has no available phone or website support for anyone who can't log in to their account! Edit* April 14th, 4 days later and I am still locked out of my email and Westhost control panel. Westhost support contacted me once asking for photo ID, which I sent, but no reply or action from them since then. Edit* April 16th - I was able to regain access to my email and domain accout today, after being locked out for a week due to incompetence by Westhost's email migration team. I'm raising my 1-star review to a 2-star, but that's it.

GBDid a really stupid thing Did a really stupid thing. While cleaning up some really old email accounts, I deleted a very active email account. Support was able to restore it! Only one possible improvement -- I don't mind waiting my turn for support, but it's near impossible to NOT do anything else. It would be really helpful if you could find a way ring a bell or flash the text window when the tech is finally available.

GBAmit was able to offer me solutions to… Amit was able to offer me solutions to my problems that got me and my business back up and working. He offered a very detailed reasoning of how my email was set up to better help me understand why I was having the problem I was having. It's the first time someone has been able to advise me properly of the issue ever since the Chi system was setup. Thank you very much Amit!
