If you are used to Claude Code, this will remind you of what life was when you only had GPT 3.5. It's the dumbest AI ever.

Very disappointing support despite paid Pro subscription I am currently on a paid Bolt Pro subscription, but my experience with customer support has been extremely disappointing. Since 09.06.2026, and as of today (22.06.2026), I have been waiting for a response regarding a serious issue with one of my projects. My original project got stuck on “Thinking...” after Bolt was working on SEO metadata, pre-rendered HTML files, redirects, and Netlify deployment configuration for my published website. Because of this issue, I was not able to continue implementing the SEO metadata, pre-rendered HTML files, redirects, and Netlify deployment configuration. I am now afraid to try again, because the last time I attempted this, the project became blocked and I had to recover the last working version from the version history. This is not a minor issue, as the project is connected to my live website and I needed clear guidance on whether the changes were saved and how to safely continue without risking the existing code. Despite being a paying customer, I have received no response at all or solution so far. For a Pro subscription, this level of support is simply not acceptable and, in my opinion, unacceptable. A paid plan should come with reliable assistance, especially when the issue affects an active website project.

Because of this lack of support and unstable platfform, I am now considering cancelling my Bolt subscription and migrating my website to another platform where I can rely on proper support and stability.

Im waiting over a week now for a support update, since May the updated standard and max ai usage since then I have issues fixing things if one thing is fixed another thing is broken driving in circles eating up my tokens something not right, why is that happening and did anyone else experience any issues with support now?

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ I've had a really positive experience with Bolt. Like any AI development platform, it's not perfect and there have been times where I've had to guide it back on track, but overall it has allowed me to build things that I simply wouldn't have been able to build otherwise. What stands out most for me is the speed. Ideas that would normally take weeks or months can be turned into working features incredibly quickly. It's also helped me learn a huge amount along the way. I've also found the support team to be excellent. On the occasions where I've had issues, they've been responsive, fair and willing to help. Where compensation was appropriate, they sorted it out without any drama. I think a lot of negative reviews come from people expecting AI to be completely hands-off. In my experience, the best results come when you treat Bolt as a powerful tool and work with it rather than expecting it to do absolutely everything for you. For me it's been worth every penny and has opened doors that simply weren't available before. Highly recommended.

I subscribed to Bolt.new expecting to build a functional app, but most of my tokens were consumed trying to fix repeated issues. Despite spending a large amount of tokens, I never obtained a working application. The experience was frustrating and did not justify the subscription cost. Unfortunately, I cannot recommend the service based on my experience.

Gave it a simple project at first, which went okay but got me into subscription. Then gave it a more complex prompt. It was burning through 1/4 of the monthly tokens to build an empty folder. Repeated this 3 times with no result at all. I contacted support to ask for a token refund but never got an answer. So on simple projects it might work, but if anything goes wrong, you and your money are lost. I will use the little rest of the tokens and then unsubscribe. Don't fall for them!

It worked quite well at the beginning while I was building my website but then the errors started and I coundn't use the service anymore, support was very slow, took more than a month to reply and didn't solve the problem. Then more issues came up but nobody is helping to resolve them while I am still being charged the monthly fee.

The ai constantly crashes, the ai tookens are too small, the user tokens are gobbled up faster than a starving pirranha. You project will be trashed lots of times due to the bad interface / ai - so 70% of your tokens are used getting the ai to repair the problems it caused. Helpful advice - ge t another ai to give you better prompts but don't oveload bolt - it will kill your project. Good job iI actually downloaded zip file of the code a week before major issues kicked in but then the reall problems started - bolt didn.t like some tsx file bigger than 10k without a frsh browser / full ai tokens - it went off hallucinating thinking it was replicating modals but failed miserably. Verdict - Nothing complex, you'll be ok ( 1 page - lol )
