Do you use more than one email account?

[Henrywrites]

I make use of Google Mails as the mail that I use for most of my activities. I have just 2 Gmail accounts. One for work and the other for personal use. Do you make use of more than 1?

 

[Shortie]

I have 4 email accounts altogether. Three of them are on GMail and one of them is on Hotmail. The GMail ones I have are personal, and business, and one is just for anything, and the Hotmail one I have is for my Xbox account and where I get emails for games that I have played.

I have a dozen Gmail IDs, the one I use for my AdSense is not used for everyday communication with clients. The one I use for financial services is not used to sign up with forums. I use different email accounts for different purposes.

Same, I don't use my real name when registering with forums, to protect my prviacy.

Even though I have custom email IDs and also emails with other email services, I mostly use Gmail. I never liked Yahoo Mail and I find Outlook Mail very slow.

I find Outlook Mail very slow.

Sure, Outlook is slow on slow internet connections. Outlook is the main service I use and since I have a fast internet connection, I don't have such issue.

Is your internet connection slow? What speed do you receive? You can check on https://www.speedtest.net/ and copy and paste the results

If you have ever been into email marketing, will definitely make a lot email address depending on how big your work seems to be. I have over 100 email address and all of them are mostly Gmail accounts. It's only few accounts that I have on yahoo mail.

I currently have five different personal email accounts. I have my very first email I made via Yahoo way back in 2007, another one I made on Yahoo in 2010 since I couldn't remember my login details, two made on Gmail, and one made through Protonmail.

Lol why do you need all of those? Is the purpose to try to bypass junk mails?

I am paying $17 per month for 150 mbps connections and this is what I get.



A sad reality in my home country.

Thanks for sharing! And I don't think web browsing should be that slow You also have a great ping(the lower the better, as this is latency in ms)
But there appears a huge difference in what you pay for and what you receive. Wow.

I pay for 250 down/25 up and receive 150-265 down and usually 25 up.

Are you on a fibre optic connection?

 

[Nomad]

Yes, I am on Fibre Optic. I have not made any complaints about why I don't receive the speed I paid for but those who have made complaints were told that the personal connection does not get that kind of speed and you need to pay for Enterprise service, which is 3 X the current fees.

I don't understand. You say you pay for 150mbps? Personally, I feel you should complain. And read the fine print in your terms and conditions. Often there's a clause hidden that excuses them from providing what you pay for.

 

[Nomad]

Well, they have a clause that says "up to 150 mbps" Their clause does not guarantee you 150 mbps instead they say user will get up to 150 mbps. They have created loopholes.

That's usually the case, sure. But with a fibre optic broadband connection, I'd expect you to usually get what you pay for, unless the service is over-subscribed. Even then in that case, I'd expect you should get AT LEAST 60% of the total speed AT ALL TIMES. It's bad.

 

[Nomad]

I do get better speed sometimes, however, the speed is terrible during the peak hour. However, the speed I get serves most of my purposes, form using a TV to streaming movies and playing games.

Wow that's bad. I always get at least 150mbps at the busiest times. And pay for 250.
How much better speeds? Do you ever get full speed outside of peak hours?

Well, that's part of it and most of them are work related. Then I have most of them used for my Spotify accounts. You get free 1 month trail with each new account created, so I'm milking that feature .

Not sure how this is related to marketing, sorry?

And I feel ya on the free trials, I have a habit of playing that feature at airports
