8 Years and I'm still liking them
I've been with them for 8 years and the service is consistent and always improving. On a personal note - I had a labor intensive task requiring literally doing thousands of searches for specific customer orders - Fastmail's search was BLAZING FAST - as in responses popping up instantly. Their speed saved me hours upon hours of time.
Support has always been good and direct to the problem (as opposed to others who don't really listen and don't really solve your actual problem).
Their apps always work well for me. The only reason I'm willing to keep paying them is because their service is so good.

I'm giving Fastmail five stars for a…
I'm giving Fastmail five stars for a dozen reasons, but I want to be clear - they process & store their data in the US.
Their support are consistently amazing, they're able to quickly resolve issues. They can investigate matters when you give them access to certain messages. They have the best delivery rates of any service I've ever used.
It's worth the cost. Frankly, I've tried iCloud Mail but it's nothing compared to Fastmail.
If I had a wish-list, it'd be:
- Euro region
- Enterprise product
I would use this product for business. But it needs those Enterprise controls.

Great service, reliable support
I've used fastmail for almost 10 years. I selected them because of their stated commitment to provide email for me, not for advertisers or companies who are interested in mining my data. In that time I've been very impressed with the reliability of the service and ease with which I've been able to do things like use masked email addresses and create mail accounts for other family members that are grouped with mine. I've contacted their customer support a couple of times, and in each case been very impressed with the speed of their response and rock solid competence. I strongly recommend the service.

The most consumer-oriented email provider
In the Dark Ages of PC computing (25+ years ago) I was a computer consultant subscribing faithfully to Infoworld and PC Magazine. One of my favorite columnists by the name Stewart Alsop II wrote an article about a new service called FASTMAIL.FM He was so laudatory, that I had to try it. At the time, they gave you a free account. Mind you, broadband was still available only to bit companies, it was all dial-up and slow spam. So, I signed for a free a/c. Then I signed for a second one. Then for a third. It never failed: this thing was PERFECTION ITSELF: it did not ever have spam or viruses or any other ugliness and it was fast, even with dial-up. After a year of free use I did not need any more proof: I signed for an upgraded a/c (and have been upgrading ever since). The service is clean, the interface is flawless, your can RESTORE the last week if you deleted stuff you actually needed, you can UNDO SEND and you can have ALIASES, in case your email got contaminated and you want to change it. You can, of course, report spam and phishing, as well as block senders. You can set your home/office cameras/phones/devices to send you email. But best of all, they have great professional people working for them! On the rare occasions that I would need help (mostly due to my deficient knowledge), I'd send an email to Support and they reply RIGHT AWAY, which is something unheard of in our day and time. Nobody can ever convince me to change FASTMAIL, I LOVE THEM!

Highly recommended
I have been a customer for a number of years, and I recently had the chance to contact customer support.
In my experience, the team was highly professional and went above and beyond in order to provide a great service.
I would highly recommend Fastmail to anyone looking for a quality email experience focused on design, privacy and great integrations.

Happy for 20+ years
I have been using fastmail literally for more than 20 years and I do not want to switch (even though I am in Europe :-).
A few weeks ago, my email stopped working, and the fastmail team helped me right away, first tier 1, tier 2 and then tier 3. It turned out, it was not a problem with fastmail at all, but due to another service, yet they still helped me resolve the issue and indirectly helped the other service fix the issue as well. I highly recommend it!

I'm over the moon about Fastmail
I'm over the moon about Fastmail. I've been running my own mail server for about 15 years, and frankly, it's a lot of work. For years I was convinced that no reasonably priced commercial service would be able to give me what I get from running my own server, but I've just transitioned to Fastmail, and I'm incredibly impressed. I think my number one point of praise is the fast and technically superlative support; I needed a bulk operation that didn't appear to be provided by the web interface, and the technical staff at Fastmail were able to make it happen incredibly quickly. Very, very impressed.
