Theit customer support is fast but that is so far the only thing I liked, not the solutions. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
I have been using SnapMailbox for some time, but my recent experience has left me disappointed and frustrated due to their questionable billing practices and lack of transparency.
1. Hidden Charges: I discovered unexpected charges on my account that were not clearly communicated upfront. For instance, I was charged storage fees for items left in my mailbox longer than the allotted time, despite no prior notification or reminders. Additionally, I was charged an extra $5 per mail recipient beyond the three included in my plan, with no clear or prominent warning when adding the extra recipient.
2. Lack of Warnings: When adding an extra recipient in May, I was not alerted about the additional fee. While the customer service representative claimed that a pop-up warning exists, there was no evidence provided to confirm it was displayed at the time. Software bugs can occur, and SnapMailbox should ensure accountability by keeping logs or records of such notifications.
3. Inefficient Communication: Navigating the system to manage mail, shred items, or check charges is unnecessarily complicated. Icons indicating pending or completed actions are poorly designed and confusing, and it took multiple attempts and clarification to understand what they meant.
4. Unethical Practices: These hidden charges have resulted in a fee of $64.20—equivalent to nearly five months of my subscription plan. SnapMailbox’s lack of proactive communication or warnings before charging these fees feels exploitative and unprofessional. It reflects poorly on their commitment to customer satisfaction.
5. Misleading Address Promises: The plan description states that I could have one “real street address.” However, all I received was a PO box address, which is not what I expected or needed.
While the customer support agent was polite and made efforts to assist me, the systemic issues with SnapMailbox’s processes and communication overshadowed this. Transparent, ethical practices are crucial in maintaining customer trust, and SnapMailbox falls short on both.
Unless SnapMailbox improves its communication, transparency, and user interface, I cannot recommend this service to others. Proceed with caution if you decide to use it. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
