“DREAM HOST”

Eric L.
4/27/20

I have my own domain do you know if there is a fee to move my domain to DreamHost? Wow, what's happening on your hosting-server that you need to spend 3 hours each month dealing with it? I probably spend 3 hours a year. Or are you talking about time spent in WordPress itself? Can i get domain name emaik for businees free of charge in dream host or i must psy monthly.

“Avoid Dreamhost at all costs. After 20 years they've started adding random subscriptions and feed.”

I have a managed Wordpress portfolio site (Dreamhost handles regular updating) that hasn't been changed in years. A few months ago all my families email shut down. Turned out Dreamhost had an issue updating my Wordpress PHP to the latest. Since they couldn't update it they began charging me a small monthly fee for using the old PHP. I never used the old PHP. They did. I had a $15 bill. They also couldn't tell me how to fix the issue or which WP blog was at fault. I paid the bill and my account took days to turn back on after customer service told me they'd turned it back on and would refund the $15 and tell me how to stop it from happening. They never did. Today? It happened again. They've been billing me that small fee with no notice. It's kind of wild to watch a business just take a 20-year relationship and trash it over their own error but ok. I'm not sure where else to call this out.

Dreamhost sounded like a winning choice with it's low hosting package cost, monthly cost was great but overall service and more importantly website access speed were snail pace. I was getting too many emails from clients which i was hosting their sites complaining how slow websites were loading and had to switch to more a faster service after Dreamhost did not respond to my inquiries on the matter and luckily found another webhoster at Hostinger at a cheaper rate and faster access speed. Dreamhost became a distant memory soon after.

I never used the old PHP. They did.

Tip for consumers:
Dishonest business that used to be well run. Sad.

Products used:
I have a hosting package. They randomly have started adding fees without tell you and then shutting down your account for not paying for the fees you didn't know you had. Then they explain that the fees are because they screwed up the upgrade of your site.

In my opinion this is the best companies to find this year's web hosting sites. There are many options, and each hosting site will tell you that it is the best there is. This page reduces things to the 6 best websites and they will tell you which are the best for you, which is great since you save a lot of time and of course money, which is what we look for in the hosting sites. I invite you to enjoy them. Of this website so you can see how great it is I congratulate the creators

I used Dreamhost for one year. After I couldn't make a payment for a couple of years my balance was negative and all the projects I was working on were deleted and no backups were left available. They just deleted many hours of my hard work. I found it out when I renewed my subscription. After that, I tried to cancel my subscription and delete my account didn't provide any refund.
Anyone who wants to use their service please check other platforms such as WordPress, Winx, GitHub, etc.

In my personal opinion i just want to say that They alone are providing the best hosting service. Check out the postgraduate BD-E for Higher Bandwidth, Best Feature, Fast SSD Server Registration Server with Best Data Center Hostel in USA. Other resellers do not have the same success with hosting communications, do not have to go to the corner to see the server's core monopoly and where they can attack the upstream provider. No Cloud Linux OS and Constitution Firewall.

I cancelled my account by phone when the raised the rate after the first 3 years (I no longer needed the account and was not interested in the new rate. They would not budge) They have been sending me invoices every year for $200+ I cannot call them. Phone numbers don't work. I cannot cancel online, since they say I owe money. I cannot reply to their email. They are essentially harassing me! I am feeling rage. I don't like that feeling but there is no way to contact a human being.
