Bad Service & Fake Replies
Despite the fact they are always sending wrong feedback, Site123 will always claim that issue generated by end-use while they are unable to solve their internal issues at all.
Previously i wrote a feedback and they claimed that issue generated by us while till today they are unable to solve it .
Unfortunately i can't attache images of current conversations but here is the latest reply dated 2nd July,2026 :
"this is still being checked by my team, am sorry that it takes so long."
"I completely understand why you're frustrated, especially given how long this has been ongoing.
At this point, the issue is still under investigation by our development team. I realize that this isn't the update you were hoping for, and I understand that waiting without a resolution is difficult. Unfortunately, I don't have any additional information or an estimated timeframe to share at the moment.
As soon as there is any progress or an update from the development team, it will be communicated. I appreciate your patience while the investigation continues."

As explained in our response to your previous review, your issue stems from abnormal activity in your mailbox, which has led to it being blocked by spam filters.
Using mailboxes created through our service to distribute spam is a violation of our terms of use, and it is the responsibility of mailbox owners to prevent such activity.
Your case was escalated to our support manager, who provided you with the initial steps to address this issue. Once you followed the given instructions, he notified our team to expedite the unblocking of your mailbox.
Please be aware that since the mailbox is blocked by spam filters, it may take some time for it to be whitelisted and for the block to be lifted.
Additionally, our support agents cannot provide direct assistance in these matters and can only give updates once they are informed by our team that the mailbox was unblocked.
Best Regards
SITE123 Team.
I am experiencing exactly the same issues. No email address I provided has been sent a verification email. The Bots providing support are useless, there is no internal communication so they keep asking the same questions and repeating the same answers - check your junk, send us another email, our domain team will send a verification email etc etc.
I have given up. Three times i have requested a refund but its just ignored.
If Support was actually reactive I would give a better star rate as its a very easy and useable system to set up your website.
Edit : within 24hrs the standard response has been issued to my review (see below) Ignoring the fact that several fully operational emails have been provided (your AI program needs improvement).
Edit 2: Finally worked out you don't need the elusive email. The domain is live. The timewasting massaging is also live unfortunately. Site123 tweek the auto email will you?.

Hello,
Thank you for submitting a review.
Please note that domain verification is an external process handled by the domain registrar and not directly by us.
A domain verification email is sent by the automated systems of the domain registrar, which may cause your email provider to mislabel the email as spam or block it altogether. This is why we asked you to provide different email addresses and to check your spam folder.
Since no identifying information was provided with your review, we were unable to look further into your case. Please contact our team at [email protected] or email [email protected], and we would be happy to assist you further.
Best regards,
SITE123 Team

Very poor customer service
Very poor customer service. It's been 2 weeks since I requested a verified domain email, and I still haven't received it. Sent them 4 different email addresses, and they keep telling me to check my junk folder every time I message them. Now I've asked for my money back, and they offered one month free. LOL, what one month free when you can't advertise your website? Still no response on the refund.

Hello,
Thank you for submitting your review.
We would like to clarify that the domain verification email is not sent by us. The verification process is required by all domain registrars as part of ICANN regulations. The responsibility for sending the email and managing the entire verification process lies with the domain registrar.
Our role is to act as a liaison between you and the registrar, which enables us to provide 24/7 support and an avenue for you to seek assistance—services that the registrar does not provide.
Our domain department is in contact with the registrar to help you with the verification process, which is why we requested additional email addresses. This allows the registrar to attempt sending the verification email to those addresses.
Please note that since domain verification emails are sent from an automated system, they may sometimes be directed to your SPAM folder by your email provider or even blocked entirely. This is why we consistently advised you to check your SPAM folder.
In our effort to assist you, we also offered an additional free month of service, so you can fully benefit from the period you purchased once your domain is verified. This gesture is made in good faith, even though we are not directly involved in the verification process or the issue you are encountering.
We encourage you to continue your conversation with our team, and we will do our utmost to help you resolve this issue.
Best Regards

One of the worst companies i have ever met.
they are unable to solve email issue for more than 3 months.
Imagine mentioning your colleague in cc will lead to be blocked by all servers around the world so you have always to send emails without mentioning your colleagues in cc!!!
Not recommended at all, Easy pages creations does not mean stable service for businesses .

Thank you for taking the time to submit a review
After investigating your case, it appears that your mailbox was set up with an external service. There has been abnormal activity on your mailbox, which led to it being blacklisted by a spam filter, rendering the email inoperable.
The issue you are experiencing is related to external factors and is a consequence of this abnormal activity. We do not have the power to overrule such blacklists.
Please follow the instructions provided by our team to resolve this issue.
We advise against using your mailbox for high-volume mailing or allowing any external service or software to utilize your mailbox for such activities. Failing to adhere to these recommendations may result in your mailbox being blacklisted again.
Best Regards

Disgraceful company
Disgraceful company. I have not used this site at all, yet they failed to send a renewal notice and still charged my credit card automatically. When I inquired about the refund, they claimed they would not refund the full amount, citing their Terms and Conditions as the reason.

I contacted site123 about a refund which i am entitled do by the site123 refund policy it has now been over 10 days still there is zero reply zero response from site123. It's shameful. At least a hello we have received your ticket and it's been processed no nothing. Absolutely useless site never use it don't trust them never!!!!

On Jun 4, 2026, you reached out to our team and submitted a request, receiving an immediate response from our support staff. Because our support team does not handle these specific matters, the agent informed you that your inquiry would be escalated to our billing department.
Following their review, you were contacted by our staff on Jun 7, 2026. By Jun 9, 2026, the billing team provided a confirmation for your request, consistent with the guarantees in our terms of use. This entire resolution took place within just five days of your initial contact.
While we value honest feedback from our users, your claims that you received no assistance or reply are entirely false and represent a gross misuse of the Trustpilot platform.
Ben was able to help me with my issue. Thank you and love this site.
