  • Fast for Public email Domains but slow for other domains

    Fast for Public email but slow for other domains, example for: LIVE, GMAIL, HOTMAIL, YAHOO MAIL etc. takes about 4 seconds, but when comes to any other domains, the validation can take up to 10-20 seconds to validate. Thats my experience anywayzz. Works, but bit slow You get 100 free checks, BUT the paid plan is super cheap, minimum $10USD for 5000 checks and credits never expire. There's other plans
