Bad Plugin or Bad Bluehost Admin Panel

First time I've tried the plugin. The Bluehost account already had some basic WP site under that domain, but the domain was pointing to another provider where It was developed. I have initiated a transfer via plugin, which worked almost perfect, there were some issues with the content, but nothing major. So now I had two websites in admin panel under same domain name, old blank one, and new one. I have deleted the old one, and new one was saying domain needs to be connected. I have contacted support many times to resolve it, and either them or automatically, site was deleted. Then they tried to restore it, and they hooked up wrong database files, (the design on front was good, but content was empty). So overall really bad experience, lost around 10 hours. Then, i tried transferring my site to @Siteground via their migrator. All happened in 5 minutes perfectly without issues. So overall, when you choose hosting, don't save those $2.99 or you will loose many more. Cheers
