Spam ArrestReviews of spamarrest.com

I used spam arrest for years and it always did a decent job of catching spam. I repeatedly asked them to improve their web interface it was absolutely horrible in some cases you couldn't read emails at all and all they ever said in response was use a regular e-mail client like outlook. Now they have raised their price to $30 per month. BYE BYE!

Overall liked the product for reducing my spam. Used the product since it first came out and never really had too many issues. But increasing from $79/yr to $30/mo?! Bye Bye. Cancelled my renewal today.

Challenge-response email validation is still a highly effective spam solution for the end-user, despite the many caveats; I'd used Spamarrest for many years. Having said that, since they are bumping up even their personal accounts up to a stratospheric $30/mo U.S., I will be moving on when my annual renewal expires.

Been a client for over 10 years. When their service works it works good... but often I cant get my mail for days and all they do is blame me for changing the port or the incoming and outgoing settings which I have not changed. They blame everyone but themselves. their customer service is the worst and it takes days for them to get back to you. DO NOT USE SPAM ARREST! AVOID AT ALL COSTS. I ahve found that most email clients these days offer the same service as Spam arrest and it does not cost anything and you get better results. DO NOT USE Spam arrest

I've used SpamArrest for over 10 years. I am considering canceling. The customer service, or lack thereof, is the worst. They can't even screenshare on a Mac. The new charges and autorenewals are maddening. I would never recommend them. I feel like I just contracted herpes--can't fix simple issues.

10 years as a customer and I'm going to have to leave. Too often now I'll go to my Mac to be told that Log in to my mail account has failed & the server is timed out signing in to the website. Eventually, someone will turn up in the office and switch the whole thing off & on again and they'll tell me there are no problems. It seems as though they are stuck in time with no developement or improvements, but, an ever increasing cost. Where is the money going?

I just left Spam Arrest after 5 years. It's as if the powers that be are no longer interested in their business or customer service. The wait time just to login is horrendous. It is so bogged down but they won't improve speed. Customer service takes a long time to get a reply. I switched to Mail Washer and it's a dream in comparison. Fast and in a few hours has already learned what might be good mail vs spam. Spam Arrest went from $39 a year to $69 just recently. Mail Washer Pro is $29 a year and they have 24/7 technical support. Someone is on burnout at Spam Arrest and it's showing. What a shame. It was great in 2015 when I first opened an account.

I have a lifetime subscription to Spamarrest. The secret is to turn off the challenge emails and to police your own unverified emails. I have done this for more than a decade and it works well. NO ONE wants to receive challenge emails. If I get them, I ignore them. It's my job to "white list" the people from whom I receive email. Their service has undergone some growing pains in recent years. I use their service to pull and send business email through my author domain. It works perfectly 99% of the time. Those of you with complaints are probably using the stupid challenge email. Turn it off and go to the site and police your own unverified mail instead. You'll see a world of difference. Great service and immediate responses to customer service issues.
