I wish I could rate this site lower! I paid for this site and was unable to access any of my messages. When trying to reach out to someone about my technical issues with this site I was unable to get any answers. This was a huge waste of time and money. It's a rip off and they do not care.

Scary as hell!
February 15, 2017

This site does not offer any customer service or security. I met someone (mikepell5y)and he hacked my profile/account in 2 days, reported me when I rejected him and Bpm shut down my account without even a warning. This is not a secure site and it's basically a stalkers paradise! I'm not a bitter woman who was dumped or played I was a good woman looking to meet a good man, not a crazy one!

Not properly monitored..
December 26, 2020

I am a woman looking for a certain type of man. I see a lot of white men on this site along with men living far away from where I live. This site is becoming filtrated with gay people! Its littered with unattractive men. I met one man out, and he was not looking like his profile. The cat fishing is real! I will not pay for another three months of this again. The same men over and over.

This site has desperate, pushy, and broken men. Most of them are married or have long time girlfriends. Be careful of men looking for a wife (ready4mywife). They will tell you exactly what you want to hear and in the same breath ask you about your credit, so they could put their motorcycle in your name. Just lie for no reason at all. Just because it's the thing to do I guess. Someone please help me understand the ratchness.
Shaundal... stay away from this one.

Disappointing
January 25, 2017

I joined in November 2016 and Ended my Subscription December 2017.The men on this site are perpetrating a fraud about their age, occupation and annual salary, I encountered men who are homeless, petty criminals, and con artist. Please get their name or phone number to do a check on their background on the internet sight and check your local courts to see if that have warrants or outstanding court dates. I'm a professional woman in my 50's and I don't have time for the iSSSSSH.

One word, trash
August 19, 2017

This site is garbage. Also a rip off, I signes up for a "free membership" period which then became a 3 month subscription that my card is still being charged for. The "customer service" number is a fake number, and the actual site is below par. Many of the members are old white men looking for sugar babies or to engage in interracial sex. While the other members are the same from other sites like POF. I truly regret signing up over a year ago. I am forcedto get a new card bc I keep getting charged even though I canceled 8 months ago AFTER my subscription ended!

The site lacks integrity and credibility. The majority of the site is filled with fake profiles, the verbal content of the profiles is the same and/or close too it - just a different pictures. Beware of profiles constantly stating I am God-fearing, I love the Lord, I play Rec football, discovering new places and cultures. Take a goooooood look at the quality of the pictures posted. In addition, site administrators are busy in their attempt to keep paying members occupied with "fake" profiles simply to keep them paying... my thoughts - are you that hard up for money? Where's the integrity in that?

On the scale of rotten tomatoes with 1 being the "best" - Blackpeoplemeet gets 10 rotten tomatoes!

I have had several conversations and can spot the bs rght away. However, Larry Holcombe from Lathrop, CA aka luv2pls caught my attention. We took things very slow and after a year he informed me he was going through the motions. Thanks for your honesty, but after all this time? There are people that are interested in various types of relationships and those are not the ones we had discussed. We were both very clear on what we were looking for and discussed it several times. He is not looking for a long term relationship as his profile indicates. He is still stuck on his ex and can't move beyond it. I will get past this but want others to be aware of his lies and manipulation. He isn't all he claims, talks poorly of his children even when he says family is everything. Claims he is sober (but watch the other stuff he engages in). And can't stay away from the casinos. Just be careful!

The site, and its customer support are total garbage. They will bill you excessively, and overcharge you (example: you pay for an initial account, or renewal, and they will try to double, and triple bill your credit card!). PURE SCAMMERS!

OMG stay away
February 24, 2015

If you see someone called RUthere4ME stay away! I met this guy on match.com and he started out okay. Then before I knew it he was asking me if he could take some toilet paper from my house because he didn't have any?! HELLO DOLLAR STORE! Then it was he needed some smokes (his profile says that he's social smoker! NOT TRUE he's a daily smoker and drinks vodka like it's water! I'm all about buying stuff for my man but this guy is BROKE and looking for someone to take care of him. I work hard for what I have and am looking for a partner not some grown man to take care of. When I told him we needed talk I never heard from him again... that tells me he's heard this before.

Horrible
September 17, 2023

I was a member of black people meet within the Virginia area. Most people on this site has it confused with a meet up sex site. I met several people all looking for sex. I only remained a member for 4 months and I wouldn't recommend it to anyone who is seriously looking for true companionship.

Be careful!
I registered for 3 months after a month I realised that I was not getting interesting profiles and mainly the registration is renewed automatically. I tried to cancel the automatic renewal an I could not. I called the agency and I was able to cancel the automatic renewal. However a few days later my current paid registration was automatically cancelled before the end! Basically they have taken 6 weeks of my paid registration fees. Errrk.

Barf is what comes to mind. How can anyone go to a website with a name like this. It is so racist. This website would bring out the worst of people just so they can meet people because of the color of their skin. Absolutely gross idea of anyone interested for this reason. What shade of skin would be dark enough to be on a website like this? How can anyone looking for a decent human being think that another person who selected this site for skin color could be worthy of their time?

Good dating site and absolutely no freakin' clue why everyone's so negative 'bout it. Been a member for 3 months and had a few dates. Site works fine. Blacksingles4u is a good alternative if u havent been lucky on bpm. Worth a try instead of $#*!in' around 'bout bpm.

I agree with what some of the other people wrote as far as unethical business practices. They "automatically renewed" my membership although I didnt authorize it. I have sent numerous emails to their so called Customer Service with no response. I plan on filing a complaint with the BBB as well as they do not have to worry about me using their service ever again! And I will tell all my friends and put on facebook how they do dirty business so do not use their service... IT SUCKS!

STAY AWAY

They will charge your acct. Even though it is NOT set to automatic renewal. They go to your account, change the status, charge you then refuse to give you a refund. It doesn't matter if there has been no activity in weeks because the site sucks, they just take your money. They are theives!

On day before my subscription was due for renewl, I turned off my auto renewl, then an renewl ad pops up, that u can not remove and would not let me read my email. I email customer service, and for two days no one replied. After finding a good custmer service number, which is hard to find, I called and they would not refund my money. If u do encounter this promblem to read or send any emails either

I found this site to be a huge waste of time. Most of the losers on there are all for sex. They use it as a site to compile women and get laid. Point blank. Beware of James499, real name is Dennis RiversI believe, on there in Smyrna, GA. He's overweight and has nerve to try to guilt women into sex with him. He puts on the front that he's genuine and he loves his daughter, yada yada, yet he uses this site to use women up. I find it funny and pathetic that people have to resort to this type of behavior. I say be careful if you join because I know there have to be some good guys out there somewhere but I think the sifting phase will be long and hard.
