  Hi there, yes, you’re welcome to move a self-hosted blog to WordPress.com! Learn more: https://en.support.wordpress.com/moving-from-self-hosted-wordpress-to-wordpress-com/

  Bare in mind, only sites with the WordPress.com Business Plan are able to upload custom themes: https://en.support.wordpress.com/themes/adding-new-themes/

  Other sites can select themes from the WordPress.com theme directory: https://wordpress.com/themes/

  Let us know if you have any further questions or issues. :)

  Yes, there is a Free Plan on WordPress.com, but it doesn’t include a custom domain: https://wordpress.com/pricing

  In order to transfer the data, you’ll need to export it from your site hosted at Bluehost: https://en.support.wordpress.com/moving-from-self-hosted-wordpress-to-wordpress-com/2/

  And then import it to your WordPress.com site: https://en.support.wordpress.com/moving-from-self-hosted-wordpress-to-wordpress-com/3/

  is there a support telephone number for wordpress?

  Phone support is not offered on WordPress.com. https://en.support.wordpress.com/help-support-options/
