Mailchimp Email SMS Marketing

May 8, 2025

Such a predatory pricing structure. Klaviyo's pricing was more upfront and honest, plus open rates DOUBLED. We've been with Mailchimp for 12 years, it's no longer king of email since it was acquired.

JUST A MASSIVE RIP OFF. Great sales pitch...so I signed up, only to find that a massively complex set up include DNS settings. Because I have 45,000 contacts it then charged me for all of these despite only 21,000 being subscribers. So, so far not 1 email sent and £500 in charges. Avoid these people like the plague.

Not sure what happened to Mailchimp but my bills started out reasonable but as my business grew, my bill ballooned into this extreme amount each month. What’s worse is when I went to cancel, they charged me even more for “additional contact blocks” what for? No clue… …. Felt like they were holding my account as ransom and I had to pay $100 to close my account to avoid the new monthly fee from hitting my card…. There are a lot of options out there, choose one of them.

Application et services très intuitifs, très facile d'utilisation. Pas toujours facile cependant de maîtriser son design et la mise en page des newsletters. Mais ensuite ça se gâte. Je rencontre de nombreux problèmes de synchronisation avec shopify et d'intégration dans shopify. Par exemple je ne retrouve pas le même nombre d'abonnés côté shopify et côté mailchimp, il n'y a pas la possibilité de segmenter correctement par rapport à des chiffres d'affaire générés ou autre (contrairement à ce qui est régulièrement annoncé et mis en avant). Lorsque vous essayer d'avoir des explications avec le support. C'est lunaire. C'est le point très négatif: l'équipe support est un fake. D'où ma note. J'ai 3 problèmes en cours qui trainent depuis plusieurs semaines. Les réponses sont évasives, différentes selon interlocuteur, elle reporte l'investigation, et la résolution du problème sur l'utilisateur. Dernier exemple en date : le pop up pour l'inscription à la newsletter qui s'affiche sur mon site alors que je l'ai désactivé, puis supprimé depuis mailchimp (car ça ne fonctionnait pas). Il continuait à s'afficher malgré tout sur mon site. Le support m'a invité à faire appel à un développeur freelance ! Ce n'est pas l'aide que l'on attend d'un support. Malgré les nombreuses qualités de Mailchimp (mais que l'on trouve ailleurs) l'incompétence et la mauvaise fois de l'équipe support m'amènent à mettre cette note. À contre coeur.

If you have the opportunity to use it, it is better to waste it. Good luck trying to cancel the subscription. They will charge ridiculously things when you try and won't let you until you pay.

*** A Terrible Experience with Mailchimp – Unfair Billing Practices *** My experience with Mailchimp has been highly disappointing, and I cannot in good conscience recommend their service. I initially chose Mailchimp as a backup system for my emails, using the Essentials plan at $11.00 per month. However, at some point, they shifted to a business model that, in my opinion, is unfair. Their two-tier billing system charges inflated prices for a Contact Block with 250 contacts, even though they could simply switch customers to an Adjusted Plan—which costs half the price. Billing Issues & Lack of Customer Support On January 26, 2024, we contacted Mailchimp to pause our billing after our system was spammed with thousands of fake sign-ups, which inflated not only our Mailchimp charges but also affected other integrated systems. Our message was clear: "We have a problem with our list, which has grown beyond expectations due to spam. Can you set our billing on hold while we try to find a solution? As you can see, we are not sending out any campaigns from our account." Despite this explicit request, Mailchimp continued billing us every month, totaling $3,990.25. When I followed up again on January 26, 2025, their response was a generic, unhelpful email: "Hey there, Thanks for being patient with your Mailchimp support request. We apologize for our slower response times as we are experiencing extremely high volume. If the above information does not help, please ensure you are writing from the account's owner/admin email address and reply to this email. We will prioritize your reply and reach out as soon as we can. We appreciate your patience!" Meanwhile, they continue charging my card $516.75 per month. Unfair Practices & Difficult Cancellation Process To make matters worse, Mailchimp has made it unnecessarily difficult to disconnect from Shopify. When attempting to remove the integration, they display an alarming message: "Are you sure you want to disconnect? Disconnecting your Mailchimp account will cause any Shopify data that's been synced to be deleted from Mailchimp. That can't be undone!" Final Verdict: Think Twice Before Using Mailchimp Mailchimp's billing practices and lack of customer support make them an unreliable and frustrating choice for email marketing. If you're considering Mailchimp for Shopify or any other platform, I strongly advise you to think twice before committing.

All I wanted to do was add a sign up page on my Shopify website to automatically send subscribers to my mailing list. What a waste of time. All I got was an automated chatbot that didn't recognize my request.

Mailchimp has really gone down hill since they were acquired by Intuit. This app is terrible because it is now spamming my new customers with double-opt-in emails - some customers get those emails every day for a week straight, even though double-opt-in should be deactivated. The app is broken, it HAS BEEN broken for like 2 months, and they still haven't bothered to fix it. This makes me very upset. And I pay a lot for their services. I no longer feel it is worth it.

closed my account 6 months ago and have still been getting charged, ive contacted the support so many times and they still havnt resolved my issue! thought maybe if i come here they will take action!

They have many bugs in the last months and the biggest one is when our store was disconnected from they’re servers and we need to wait for more than 48 hours to finish the resync.

Nov. 13, 2024

Integration stopped working in around mid October. Most of the subscribers result as non-subscribers even if they opted-in.

Nov. 6, 2024

I have to uninstall and reinstall the app every time to get the contacts to sync even though it shows that the store is connected.

Terrible customer service. Take days to respond to any issue and refuse to help a small business in anyway. Charging me £120 for a month for a service I can’t use and they refuse to help. Avoid and look at other alternatives, perhaps more customer service focussed.

GREAT AT ADVERTISING THEMSELVES _ TERRIBLE FOR ADVERTISING YOUR BRAND. They upcharge you for nothing, and dont do anything that the free shopify tools grant you. Absolute trash of an app and the developers clearly this is their first API.

Müll - da man sich keinen neuen Account machen kann. Ohne Anmeldung und Account kann man die App auch nicht nutzen, wozu macht man dann so ein Schrott?

I found over recent years the integration with Shopify has improved, but its still far from the level other mail solutions are at. The final straw for writing this review has been trying to pause / deactivate a simple pop up / sign up form. Despite doing this there is still code / script on our site and we are left with a generic sign up form which mailchimp support can not help with. We are advised to hire "an expert" to solve this ! heck we just want to turn off a pop up form and try another one ... well this final straw will be the catalyst to finding another Email solution. Update .. now they want me to update my review .. OK well how is this. After MailChimp told me over and over that this was our issue and to hire an expert to remove the code ... Turns our it was their issue and their Developers identified the problem and removed the code. Their support was unwavering is their response that this was our issue. But we would not give in. Then in the end No Apology.
