GBFastmail does not give you a free trial! Fastmail advertises 'Try Us For Free!' promising a 30-day free trial. They take your credit card and information to set up an account. Only then do they tell you there's no free trial, but don't worry--they'll add on a free month in your first year. When I saw what it would cost to add my wife as a second user, I decided it was not for me and closed my account. Did I get a free trial? No. Did I get my money back? No. In the jargon of the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau, this is a 'deceptive practice.' Ordinary people might use a different term.

SGhappy user! Moved from a self-managed email server to Fastmail 20 years ago. Zero regrets. Best email service. Very happy to pay a reasonable price for a rock solid service with no surprise, and a respect for my privacy. Strong authentication with a hardware key option. I only use for emails, not used their calendar or contact services. For these I still find the Apple apps easier and more intuitive.

GBVery happy with Fastmail I've used Fastmail for about two years, using my own domain there. It has worked perfectly for me. For that reason, I happily can't comment on their responsiveness to service requests. I've also had zero problems with spam. I use the iOS app and my desktop, via Thunderbird. In my opinion, the cost is reasonable for the level of service, and the comfort of not wondering what invisible way the provider is building a dossier on me.

PLAmazing service justifying the price I've been using FastMail Standard plan with my own domain for few months. I'm amazed how the service is working. It is fast, reliable, works great on iOS devices. Webmail interface is great - intuitive, has keyboard shortcuts. I moved mine and my wife's primary email accounts to FastMail and purchased three years plan. When I send tickets to support I receive an answer within 24h. I highly recommend it. I admit it is not cheap, but definately worth the money.

BBThe spam filtering is very poor. The spam filtering is very poor, and they make the most absurd suggestions to try and improve it. They want me to create a folder to mark emails as 'non-spam'. What? If I don't move an email from the inbox to the spam folder, shouldn't that be indication enough that it is NOT spam? Speaking of which, I also receive Fastmail newsletters even though I'm opted out. This makes it spam, doesn't it? I will be moving to another provider.
