Email verifies on bulkemailchecker.com

[ignitefeed]

Anyone have recent history with using bulkemailchecker.com ?

I decided to give it a try as kickbox is so d*** expensive. Well I wasn't happy to see that they want 5x more credits for doing a 'fast' verification. I uploaded only a few hundred tonight and it's taking like over 2 hours to verify.

I've tried these so called email verifier tools you host yourself, but they have not proven reliable whatsoever. I need to keep my quality high and bounces low, etc as I am using Amazon SES and don't want to put those SES instances in jeopardy.

Does anyone else have this same experience. Can anyone recommend another provider? Kickbox is an awesome service, but the cost is quite high :(

Thanks!

Those prices seem way too low, I wouldn't trust the service. They probably have crap servers or their system is not reliable, I don't know them though, so I can't say for sure.

The KB prices are pretty standard for the industry, I don't know how reliable they are though. I have a friend who has been doing private verifications for years, he does the job for several big name companies and top email marketers. His work is as good as it gets, he works exclusively for companies and marketers, he doesn't have a website, so I won't mention him here, but if you or anyone else is interested, shoot me a PM and I'll let you know his contact details.

Don't expect a cheap service, but he's actually ~25% cheaper than Kickbox. I verified 500k emails with him a few weeks ago and he charged me $750, in KB that costs $1000. The results were flawless.

Ok guys I want to understand one thing! What's the difference between using of the services you both mentioned and one the tools out there like Atomic Email Verifier or GSA Email Verifier ?

Can someone explain ?
