- (2020-01-12) Richard Slashinski: STAY AWAY - SCAM ...Does not do what it claims , AlWAYS PROBLEMS ..WORSE SUPPORT TEC SUPPORT !! There contact us Link on there website doesn't work !!! Adding Blocks is confusing , But It make sure that your Credit Card is Charged .. Distubing my charges on credit card , I have sent numerous emails no answer back this weekend .. Unlinked account .. Removed this JUNK from my extenstions . Google you should be doing a better JOB in offering extensions like this !!!
- (2019-12-06) Matt Horn: You have to turn over complete access to your entire Gmail account for something that doesn't do anything useful unless you pay a subscription fee. Block Sender does not do a good job in its marketing to make it clear the free version is completely handicapped. I completely regret authorizing this app to access my gmail. DO NOT INSTALL. DO NOT AUTHORIZE. DO NOT USE.
- (2019-10-09) jacqueline bryan: I added this. Went to block an email. It asked me to sign in to block sender. I tried. It said my password was incorrect. Requested it be retrieved. Was told that my email address wasn't signed up to block sender. Catch 22 anyone! What a load of rubbish!!
- (2019-10-06) Brett Hedtke: sounds like it sucks
- (2019-09-06) Roberto Saverin: Block Sender was working until 2 days ago but now it stopped working. Customer Service says now they are having server problems !
- (2019-09-05) CN MG: A waste of time, how can this extension get so many good reviews? It does nothing. Do programmers really understand what we want and what we need? I don't think so.
- (2019-06-25) António Rebelo: É bom.
- (2019-06-07) Josie Williams: Waste of money, the free version does nothing. Dont waste your time installing it. Its probably a scam
- (2019-05-27) Igor Uchitel: STAY AWAY. A SHAMEFUL, SHAM EXTENSION. The free version is useless and doesn't allow you to do anything. They propose to upgrade - I did upgrade to Plus version, thinking I would pay $4-something/year, only to find out that the Plus version also doesn't allow to bounce spam emails, which is what I had been looking for. So I upgraded to Pro version, thinking I would pay $7-something/year, and then I found out it's $7-SOMETHING PER MONTH. Not only that, but they don't provide an option to cancel instantly and get your money back - I cancelled my account and got a message that it would remain active for a year. This is nothing short of outrageous, an absolute sham.
- (2019-04-25) Paolo Rossi: buono
- (2019-04-24) 牛島まや: 有料なのはちょっと…。 それと使い方がいまいちな点が☆三つ。
- (2019-03-07) Bom
- (2019-02-20) Антон: Useless!! Just another pathetic effort from desperate scam wannabees.
- (2019-02-17) Exactly what the other user said "the billing wording is misleading and I've been charged $89 for what I thought would be around $7." This happened to me also and is not a fair way for sales. This application should undergo google review for taking away customers' money. I have disputed this fact to my bank and awaiting for my refund promptly.
- (2019-02-07) Laurence Harrison: Brilliant. Have been plagued by emails from a stalker, sometimes 30 or more a day, every day for 4 years. Downloaded this and it has stopped completely. Can't thank you enough. excellent
- (2019-01-08) Santana Mansfield: Can't send a bounce email without paying
- (2018-12-17) Antonio Giacomo Feola: ottima
- (2018-10-13) Tom Chantry: Pointless - the free version doesn't do anything you can't do in gmail anyway - ie no bounce backs unless you pay - should make that clear and then save me time bothering to install it.
- (2018-09-26) Martinez josé: un peu cher
- (2018-07-26) Phil J: Does not work. At least not as advertised.
- (2018-07-20) Nilson Oliveira: Não é grátis.
- (2018-06-17) Nital Jethalal: Complete waste of money. They also never once returned my emails after getting initial payments where I clearly conveyed some concerns and asked for direct help/support.
- (2018-05-23) LB Johnson: I was getting daily porn spam, all with a photo of the text as opposed to actual text so the filters didn't recognize any of the words to block through normal google. I'm a grandmother so I can assure you it wasn't something I wanted to get and I was afraid one of the grand-kids would accidentally open one. I blocked the domain with block sender and end of problem. Bless you.
- (2018-05-12) Victoria Mpofu: The app itself worked great for me! Very effective, but I feel the billing wording is misleading and I've been charged $89 for what I thought would be around $7. Unimpressed, I've emailed for a refund and which I expect to receive ASAP!
