I have received notice from several subscribers that they have entered their email and subscribe but receive no confirmation email from jetpack.
I tried using the form on your site, and it seems to be working properly. I subscribed to your blog, and you can now see my email address in your subscriber list.
It’s worth noting that confirmation emails are only sent once, so if you previously attempted to subscribe but never clicked on the link in the confirmation email, you won’t receive a new email if you use the subscription form again today.
You can confirm your pending subscription here:
https://subscribe.wordpress.com/
If you’d like, you can send me an email via this contact form and mention this thread, as well as a few examples of the email addresses that didn’t receive a confirmation email. I’ll be happy to take a look at our email logs to find out what happened.
I should however mention that some of your ads are really getting in the way; when I clicked on the email input form in the subscription form, a full-screen ad popped up:
https://i.wpne.ws/ioT4
I had to close that window to be able to resume browsing your site and entering an email address in the subscription form. If I had been a regular visitor, I wouldn’t have entered my email address there, as I would have been afraid to start receiving similar spam in my inbox.
I have also been receiving notifications of subscribers (different ones) in my e mail, yet their subscriptions are not showing on my website counter or showing up in my wordpress stats.
To clarify, those are not Jetpack Subscribers. Those people have an account on your site. They appear under Users > All Users in your dashboard, and register through the “Register” link on your log in page:

You receive an email notification when they do so. They do not receive any notifications about your new posts, and are not related to Jetpack in any way. You can disable these registrations by going to Settings > General in your dashboard.
Jetpack Subscribers, on the other hand, can be found by following these steps:
https://jetpack.com/support/subscriptions/#view-your-email-subscribers
They do not appear under Users > All Users, and you do not receive an email notification when they sign up. They can sign up via the Subscription form in your sidebar.
I hope this clarifies things a bit.
