1. Wait 2–5 minutes
Some services send emails with a delay, especially at busy times. Don't press “Resend code” many times in a row — many sites then block sending for a while.
2. Check Spam and Promotions
Gmail, Outlook and others sometimes put code emails into Spam or the Promotions tab. Search for the site's name.
3. Make sure the address is typed correctly
An extra dot, a trailing space or gmial.com instead of gmail.com are the most common reasons. Copy and paste the address instead of typing it.
4. The site may not accept your email domain
Some sites don't accept temporary addresses. If the email doesn't arrive only at a disposable address, try another temporary address or a permanent anonymous one from @neatbox_bot.
5. You may have hit the attempt limit
After several requests, sites often pause sending for 10–60 minutes. Wait, then try once.
6. The code arrived but doesn't work
Use the most recent code — earlier ones usually stop working. Codes are often valid for only 5–15 minutes.
7. Contact the site's support
If nothing helps, the problem is on the service's side. Tell them which address you're waiting on.
Stop hunting for codes in every email
In Neatbox temporary email, the code is shown in large digits with a “Copy” button, and the confirmation link becomes a single “Confirm” button. The email arrives within seconds and shows up on the page right away.
