While we don't verify specific claims because reviewers' opinions are their own, we may label reviews as "Verified" when we can confirm a business interaction took place. Read more

To protect platform integrity, every review on our platform—verified or not—is screened by our 24/7 automated software. This technology is designed to identify and remove content that breaches our guidelines, including reviews that are not based on a genuine experience.

I guarantee a nightmare

I guarantee a nightmare. You're hit with scary images upon log in, then spam, then ads. Then, as you try to check your inbox from Gmail, it BLOCKS you from entering any POP3 information unless you pay! You have to pay to remove their disgusting, skin-crawling ads, you have to pay to use another email service to check mail from their account, and all around, you have to suffer if you dare touch this cesspool of a FRAUDULENTthievingGROSS platform that thinks anyone will be nuts enough to pay it a single dime. So bummed I tied the account to important documents. DO NOT USE THIS TRASH. You've been warned!

Double Negative 5 stars

If I could go lower than one star I would. My email account was recently hacked. Someone changed my information, including my recovery email. I contacted support multiple times to try and resolve this issue as I need access to my email for work purposes in a medical office, as well as personal. I was sent a questionnaire which I completed to the best of my recollection (asking when I registered the account was a little unfair, who actually remembers that when it has been over 15 years?). I received this in response:

"Please note that the information does not match with the one on our files and we were not able to identify you as the rightful owner of the account.
Unfortunately, we are not able to provide you access to the account as we take the account security of our members very seriously.
Please note that this is a decision made by our abuse department and we do not have further information we can provide to you."

Whatever information did not match is probably because some HACKED ME AND CHANGED IT!

In response and in order to further prove my identity, I forwarded a copy of a form I had to complete, along with a copy of my drivers license, which I had to send to 23 and Me in order to change my email with them. I have not had any reply as of yet.

This is absolutely unacceptable and it is beyond the worst customer service EVER to not be able to speak to an actual person. I asked several times for a real person to contact me with no response.

I now have to try and change my email with over 35 places that I do business with and try to verify my identity with each one. It has taken hours and I am not even halfway through the list.
I would NEVER recommend this mail service to anyone.

Mail.com has been crucial to keeping up any and all communication. I received an a specific email address for my personal use and a separate one for my professional use, as well as office tools that help me create and edit important documents. It's easy to navigate and use, but the best part is that I got all of this for free. I would definitely recommend Mail.com to anyone in need of an email address for personal and/or professional use.

Good app. Go for it!

No negative comment at all. Reliable works well cross-platforms. Advertising is not intrusive. I have been using it for several years now and I am still enjoying it!

Awful, decaying email service.

Crap. Emails fail to send a good portion of the time, returning "delivery failed permanently" messages claiming some extensive technical jargon is responsible. This doesn't happen with my proton mail or any other email client. It's clear that mail.com is not being updated or maintained to keep up with newer browsers or other email services. Avoid.
