Discreet and fun
June 27, 2016

I joined Ashley Madison as a bit of a laugh using a fake name and must say im hooked. In fact, Ive been having so much fun searching, sending messages and chatting with the odd girl that ive joined a rival site too (think its called Nostringsaffair.com or something like that). Could see me getting addicted to this affairs stuff lol! I never really thought there would be that many women to talk to but seems they are just as devious as I am, which I suppose I always suspected anyway lol! Just make sure you clear your history if you share your laptop (youd be amazed how often I forget to do this)!

So many times ive been close to joining AM and then end up bottling it. Finally gave it a shot this week and glad I did cos they seem to have got there act together. If its half as successful as nostringsaffair.com has been for me then ill be more than happy. The two together could be quite a combo! Good bye boring marrage hello hot sex life lol

Revenge is sweet!
June 14, 2016

Found out my husband was cheating last year and have been going pretty mad on these affiars sites. I like AM for sure but its not quite as good as Nostringsaffair.com in my honest opinion. I use both now anyway, as I charge them on the credit card that gets paid by our joint bank account and quite like the idea that he is paying towards me flirting and yes, sometimes even meeting and sleeping with other men. Hes lucky he still has me though and ill probably stop this eventually, but we have a daughter so I made a decision to stay married for her (but also for me to live a little again, as he clearly was doing). Anyway, digressing a bit but the point is that Id give AM 7.5 out of ten as im never short of invitations and most of the men seem alright.

Total crap
August 26, 2021

This dating site is a total waste of time and effort, most useless dating site I've ever come across, it's expensive buying there stupid credit system just to talk to mostly scammers. Absolute garbage site. Save your money and find a more respectful dating site. I gave 1 star simply because there is no 0 star

Ash Mad is all about fast, quick, easy. It's great that it can try to supply that and secrecy at the same time but its not worked for me yet & I do sometimes worry that the lack of patience in todays society can lead to people getting caught on sites like this. Ive been using a similar site nostringsaffair.com for many months and the successes ive had there have been down to good old fashioned effort mixed with realistic expectations. The sites are actually quite similar but NSA just seems more down to earth for me, it doesnt promise the world and Im not looking for it anyway, just a bit of naughty anon fun! For me AM is a B- grade site atm but that might change of course.

RIP off of men
March 24, 2021

$10 per text msg. Then she replies coyly asking for more costly texts. A never ending exchange of expensive text exchanges.
I actually found one of these women in real life. She had no interest in contact outside of the expensive website. Even though on the website replies she was utterly smitten by me!
I think women get some monetary inscentive to keep men coming back by dangling the empty illusion of a possible hookup.
This is how Ashley madison makes money: Like a peep show pimp.
Has anyone actually gotten laid off of this bogus site?

Every1 looking for an affair should try this one. Prob just second to nostringsaffair.com in terms of success rate & speed. Very good option for the people that know a good casual affairs site when they see one.

B- from me
October 31, 2016

AM is one of these clever sites that you dont know whether youre joining a dating site or some kind of online Italian clothes store! It could be a fashion brand as it's nice to look at (and really very easy to use) but when I compare it with sites that have actually came through for me in the past (nostringsaffair.com the clear example) then it falls short. I'm all for my dating sites to be big businesses and look professional but they need to get me results within 3 months or I move on. In fairness, if NSA stops working for me I would probably come back and give it another try.

Prostitution, escort service, fake profile
July 5, 2021

$50, to join plus a $20 mobile charge so $70 just to start. Customer support does not respond to your questions or complaints. Fake profiles set up so you spend credits emailing and get no response, but within a few minutes a 20 to 30 yr old girl will message, wanting you to go to their Snapchat or asking for your email address, so they can come give you a massage, but you have to enter your credit card info first. Basically Ashley Madison is a escort/prostitution website. I'm a 52yrold retired Marine veteran, I wanted a casual relationship with someone my age, not going to happen here, so if you are older and want a young Hooker you will like Ashley Madison.

"New" site is absolutely horrible. In order to find the 3 women my age who live in Southern Maine, I have to pick through 100 Boston profiles because the morons at AM eliminated the by-State search, which was a handy feature off the "old" site. Total PIA and waste of time. The old site was much more searchable. So friggin Millennial "updated" the site to the point of total. Worthlessness. Let year, I did actually meet and have coffee with two "real" women, but it took an act of Congress to get that far. They were not hookers, but the site is loaded with trolls, just like all the reviews say. I miss Craigs List!

Scam
July 12, 2016

Been on the site for 3 months. I had an encounter with one real person i will assume. Women noth online and off line are always the same they don't change. New members always show up in places far away from you. Really expensive. Funny how all the female members respond to your wink with " I do better with full msg, or I am only interested in full msg. Etc." i think some features teally need to be updated and be more fair between male and email.

It's not a complete scam. I met someone and had a great affair. I am currently on my second try on the site and I'm talking with two different real women (still haven't sealed the deal). That being said, there definitely are a lot of fake female accounts on the site. One problem is that AM has an affiliate program that pays the affiliates for female profiles generated that are active. This encourages the affiliate to create fake female profiles and actively try to suck the tokens from the guys. If you are able to see past that, and have enough money to not miss $50, this site is worth a try.

I was on Ashley Madison about eight years ago and had great success but boy, has it changed! These days the site management is as aggressive about scamming you as are the Nigerian guys posing as young women. I have been on here for about two weeks and seriously, eight of ten messages scams. The site has numerous shady tricks designed to get you to purchase credits so that you can communicate with the scammers they send your way. This place is really gotten disgusting. My best advice is stay the hell away.

You are married, kids, and successful career.
By putting your profile at AM, you are basically bare naked in public waiting for being taken advantage of. What would bad people would do? If you don't know the answer to this question, you are just miserable fools. AM is sea of shark looking for innocent Joe who is gambling his life for one night sex. Never give your real picture, real name, real phone number. Get a monger phone if you need. You might lose entire social life, marriage, kids, reputation at one single blow by these fake people. Get threatened after sharing all of your real info with someone sitting behind the monitor who is not hot sexy blonde.

You get out the effort that you put in! I consider AshleyMadison.com one of the best sites of its kind! It is a little more expensive than comparable sites like Saphrina.com but if money is not an issue you strongly suggest to use both sites! You need to remember that women are outnumbered on those kind of sites. Seek and you will find!

Average-Good
June 19, 2020

I switched to Ashley Madison last year after all the hullabaloo with VM. I found it ok and used it for four of 5 months. Had a few interesting chats but in the end decided there just weren't enough new women in my area being added so switched over to nostringsaffair.com at the start of this year and have been using that ever since. For me its about having plenty of options locally or it just isn't worth it, so that's why I ended up cancelling AM and switching over. Good site otherwise though.

Very Disappointing
June 3, 2019

AM actively edits your profile. I had stated that I would not respond to "ladies" who didn't look at my profile before winking or messaging me. Yet when I checked later on, the posted words were deleted. Also, I find it strange that the "winks" I had sent out were all received by the "ladies" within 2 or 3 minutes of each other. Could be an automated system whereby software my "winks" were relayed to the "ladies" who then proceeded to tease me costing me many, many credits as they never answered back. That could be due to the fact that many of the "ladies" are not FULL members but only guests* in AM's system. I have learned from this fiasco 2 times already. There'll not be a strike 3! So, save your hard earned money and go elsewhere. In closing, you will find there is no way to verify the positive reviews they have. *Guests aren't able to read contact info I had provided in my messages, unless they buy credits themselves. Live and learn!

Scam
September 14, 2021

This site is a scam. I have been on for less than one week (joined 9/2021) and have received communications from several obvious bots: - 1) bots that say, "send a message and photo and I'll decide if I'm interested," even though I have a robust profile and lots of photos; 2) bots that have canned garbage that obviously shows that no human read my profile; 3) even a bot that used the very same model in another account with an almost verbatim profile. What a joke! I've cancelled and can only hope that AM only conned me out of $60 for the initial 100 credits. Someone should sue these sleazebags.
