The overall reputation of Ashley Madison is marred by significant customer dissatisfaction, primarily due to the prevalence of fake profiles and perceived scams. Many users express frustration over the high costs associated with the platform, which they feel exploit their desire for genuine connections. While some customers report occasional success in meeting partners, the overwhelming sentiment is negative, highlighting concerns about financial exploitation and inadequate customer support. Despite its established brand presence, the company struggles to address these critical issues, leading to a lack of trust and a recommendation to avoid the service.

Hi, i have been on and off Ashley Madison over the past few years. I live in the UK, I am single and have found the men on this site really nice and intelligent. I have tired to find decent men on traditional dating sites but find most men are game players. At least on AM I know what they want.
I spent nearly £200 on this site sending out messages. The only replies I got were from hookers. Everything is a money trap. 90% of the profiles are fake, generated to take your money. STAY AWAY! SAVE YOUR TIME AND MONEY!...
Hi, is this thing on? OK, basically i've figured out after a looooong time that these sites do work if you follow certain rules, for example:
1 use a good site with good reviews (e. G this one or nostringsaffair.com both rank high)
2 avoid sites that you've never heard anything good about (or anything about period)
3 ALWAYS run a search in your area to see results before you get sucked into paying
4 spend time on your profile and dont copy n paste intro messages, women see thru that jazz
5 when you find a good site dont stop looking, this game is cheap for what youre getting so use multiple sites. Called the law of averages guys;-)
Thank me later & feel free to add me to your xmas card list hahaha. V x
The reputation kept me from buying credits for a while but when I finally decided to pay things got good.
But let me clarify: I'm a wealthy, decent looking man who takes care of his body. I've had success on three other affair /adult dating sites; Saphrina, Aff and another one who I will not name because I don't particularly like it. So I know what I am doing.
Buttom line; You need to buy credits if you expect results. It can be a little pricey but can b worth it. If you are not decent looking things will become a little tougher. Be prepared to lower your expectations.
I am a successful, 47year old. On this site, you have to watch out for whatever seems too good to be true. Many young, beautiful girls will contact you, and you pay the site (in coins) to reply. Recently, a woman who was supposedly 29, connected with me and we were soon sexting and Skyping while she masturbated. She tried to get me to show her my $#*!. Fortunately, I did not, because she recorded our skype and tried to blackmail me! Just be careful, please.
... at least that's my opinion. Decided to stick with nostringsaffair.com for now but might try this again in a few weeks to see if there are more members in my area. Nice looking site and easy to use, ill say that much for it.
Was on this site for one month send around 25 winks to several so called ladies in my area. Got two replies both escorts pretending to be a woman looking for a relationship until they started to talk about there rates. Waste of money
Rip off
Rip off limited on message and then they want more money for points. Stay away fellas rip off rip off
It does take some money to get through the process but if you really want to hook up, it can be well spent. I prefer good affair sites like Ashley Madison or Saphrina over lame dating apps or time wasting dating sites. Be realistic, persistent and you will succeed.
I use this asley madison website in Spain and is no good here. Woman not answer my mails not real. I not use this website here again.
This is the worst site ever. Went on made profile. Bought credits. Sent over 50 messages to different women. Never got even 1 message back. Found a friends pictures and contacted her. The pictures were hacked off Facebook. Dont waste your money!
95% are computer generated garbage. Fakes. No one exists. A money scamming machine. Of the 5% remaining, 4% are hookers,. 5% are weirdos. 5% are lost. Save your money, watch porn and please your self.
Some things need a bit of controversy to become the best they can be airlines (think United), cars (think skoda used to be pretty much hated and nowadays has shed that image), donald trump (ok, the jury's still out on that one my fellow americans!) and now cheater/ affair dating sites. I like the new ash mad. I've been using nostringsaffair.com for years and had a lot of luck on it and tho id never stop using that site, I am now considering paying the extra membership fee for ash mad because it really aint half as bad as I was expecting. I like when companies come back stronger and I really do think that could be the case here folks. Check it out!
This has to be one of the biggested scam website with a lot fake female profiles. Out of 100 massages sent only 2 replied in 2 month period. Once you purchase a good amount of credits, you will get a lot of massages or winks in the beginning to make you use up your credits to send massages. Of course, you not going to get any massages back almost 90% of those female profiles are fake. Do not wast your time. I had a better luck on CL with free posts
One guy wrote that it takes time and commitment to have success with this site and I can't agree more.
But let's face the hard facts here: 90-95% of all cheater websites are a waste of time! There are only a few sites which are worth joining such as Ashley Madison and Saphrina and every guy joins those sites looking for an affair. No big secret that there is a surplus of men and only patient guys get rewarded. That's just the way it works!
If you are looking for a quick 24h-hookup this site ain't the best place to find it. Ashley Madison DOES WORK but it sure ain't perfect. Sure you can also check out Saphrina but don't expect faster results. It also works but same story here: Patience!
Have tried it w/very poor results. The ratio is of men to women is the typical adult dating 20 to 1 so you need to have some game and lots of luck. Don't wan tot forget to mention the 'Activation Fee' which is just a big joke.
As soon as u join u get messages like "xxx has indicated she is interested in someone just like you. You should send her a custom message to connect." so the user is not interested in me but in someone like me? Aha! And over 50 million members? Are you sure? How many of them are active? You know what: i am not buying it!
I spent about $250 to join AM. I set up a spread sheet to track my activity and outcomes because the site retains sent messages for 10 days only. It becomes very difficult to see who has been contacted.
Over the course of roughly 6 weeks I reached out to 62 women with personalized messages. Some received multiple notes. The woman were within 10 years of my age, that is to say they were all over 40.
The results after sending notes to 62 profiles:
- 29 women looked at my profile. I sent a note to most of the 29 who viewed me.
- 7 women sent notes after looking at my profile or responding to my 2nd message. 2 responses were to say they weren't interested
- of the remaining 5 who responded, 3 have been slow or did not reply to a follow-up
- 1 swapped notes and had potential to got to the next step. She shared a real photo of herself (profile photo's are often a shared image) and wasn't my type.
- 1 is still in contact and may have potential
I'm in my early 50's and am in very good physical shape. I'm not the elephant man.
Perhaps I'm just an $#*!. Whatever the reason, AM did not work for me. I've spent about two thirds of my credits and I'm bailing. It's been a waste of my time.
Safe to say that most people here are using these affairs sites because the chances of hooking up with a married woman in a bar is non existent. Plus if they arent on AshleyMadison (or any of the other main affairs dating sites like nostringsaffair.com, etc) then theres no chance to get to know them a bit before you meet them, just to be sure they arent going to screw with your life after theyve screwed with your $#*!. I've tried other non-affair sites but it's just too risky. This way you both have the something to lose (your relationship) and it removes a lot of the risk that comes with cheating. I wouldnt cheat any other way.
Don't be a fool expecting to meet someone the first week. It takes time. When I first signed up I did not get a single response within the first two weeks. People complaining about AM usually feel like they got cheated (isn't it ironic) but the reality is that they just weren't patient enough. There are lots of members and the chance of having an affair if you live in a major city isn't bad at all. I personally like Saphrina a little more because for me it hooked me up a little faster but maybe that was just luck, who knows. In general I'd recommend AM. Just keep in mind that it is not an online-brothel. Women won't be waiting there to fulfill your desire.
Answer: Guys, it should not be so complicated to reach out to a girl for a hook up! You can find thousands of them on https://j4l.com/402007 They will contact you themselves, you don't have to put in any efforts if you want to have some fun time online. Or you just need to travel to them but it will be very rewarding, exciting and, what's essential, safe and SECRET experience!
Answer: Cops won't entrap you on AshleyMadison, they don't care. But you wife probably does. Often, she is worse than cops! Lol It's impossible to stay anonymous on AM - it's a well-known site. If you want to keep your affair secret, look for a safer platform, e.g. http://J4Love.net I had two affairs through their service. It was safe, private, unknown to the world and tremendously hot!
Answer: Kind of expensive because they charge by credits. There are cheaper solutions (vm, saphrina, some aff sites)...
Answer: Well, basically you purchase credits and you spend them every time you message someone...
Answer: This site is free for women, which i believe is a big problem. That is why many "professionals" join and try to make you join other sites, cam sites, etc. On sites like vm, saphrina, etc women usually pay as well which is good for the quality of the female profiles. But i guess if you are a woman you should rather join AM.
Answer: The question shouldn't be is it real, but is it worth it. If even one man/woman managed to have an actual affair through Ashley Madison, you could say that it's real. If for every 1 real affair/hookup there are 100's or 1000's of fake users to slog through all the while you're giving them your hard earned money... does that sound like it's worth it?
Answer: If it walks like a duck, and sounds like a duck what is it? Going to church has gotten people laid more than Ashley Madison.
Answer: Bill, this website is not owned by Ashley Madison. If you need to contact them you can call their toll free number 1-866-742-2218. Good luck!
