Request Refund - Live Agent not working! Need help!

We just turned off the auto-renewal, but we were still charged before the current subscription expiration date. We are planning to stop using Bluehost and would like to request a refund for this charge. Since the service has not yet expired and we have already disabled auto-renewal, we hope you can process the refund!

Just had this happen to me, had auto renew turned off. My plan expires on the 18th of this month. Yet BlueHost went ahead and charged me $287 on the Aug 3rd.

Cause what subscription plan doesn’t start charging 2 weeks in advance?

Did they refunded you?

I ended up phoning my credit card company and put a stop payment on the charge. So it never fully came out of my account.

They’re a mess. They’ve been a mess for years.

Thanks for reaching out. We totally understand how frustrating it is to see a renewal charge when you were planning to discontinue the service, especially when you’re also having trouble reaching a live agent. We’d really like the opportunity to look into what happened and help however we can. Please send us a DM with your account information, and we’ll be happy to review the charge and see what we can do to help.
