Don't waste your time and money! I deleted app after 2weeks but paid for 3months. It's a joke with all the engineers and oil drillers. How do they get away with this company?

Their advertisements are fraud and fake. They say they don't let people continue if they are looking for "something casual"...ITS NOT TRUE.
Kept asking to upgrade to premium. I lost 50 dollars for a months subscription. The matches are pathetic and nothing as your preference. If you are smart then DO NOT fall for it.
The profiles on CMB are bogus and loads were fake ones. Hope this helps for you to make a decision is you were to subscribe...

Tip for consumers:
They don't offer refund
It's a scam to trick people into paying
Worse dating app

I've been meeting girls from FlingFinder.club and it always works fine. Their girls are genuine, and the best proof of their sincerity is their consent to talk on phone and Whatsapp.
My recommendation is to stop wasting money on Coffee Meets Bagel, it's utter scam and absolute disgrace since their women are paid to chat with you and to keep you hooked. The women refuse to message via a free service no matter what. You can be assured that they are in love not only with you. They love everyone who pays for the chat.

He claimed to be from Montreal, basically from his mobile no. He also got a Hong Kong mobile no. Pictures from him mostly taken at home and HK. We texted and called for almost 2 years. Claimed his bank account in Canada being blocked because his Turkish accountant failed to file proper tax record and keep asking for money for different purposes. Trying to contact CMB if can find his profile for reporting to police.

Do not pay for anything on this app! I made that mistake and soon after they were down for the whole week of Aug 27th to today Sept 2nd (it even made BBC news if you need confirmation). Even now their service is spotty. And they won't even consider refunds for their failure to provide a minimal service during that time, just canned excuses and useless freebies that mean nothing now with the already poor experience I've had with their crappy app.

4 fake profiles in one week... it's a shame bad folks can destroy a good business. If you're already in and paid, I recommend you request a new photo of the person making a thumbs up or a peace sign or whatever floats your boat. At least you can tell if the person is who they say they are.

More than a waste of time, it's kind of heartbreaking when you think you've finally connected with someone, and you realize they don't exist.

This company allows so many scammers and fake profiles. In my daily dozen, usually 75% are fake profiles, they all say they're from China and use stock pictures. Just to see what would happen, I matched with a couple and they responded with the exact same sticker emoji at the exact same time. I feel bad for any Asian person who wishes to use the service to actually find a relationship because with the amount of scammers that pretend to be Chinese, they're making it difficult for women to determine who is for real. Complete waste of time.

Tip for consumers:
Avoid!

More than half the men I've been matched with are scammers. Most are from Eastern Europe. So stupid - they report getting a degree from a university in Estonia or Macedonia and then claim to be longtime residents of my state.

Please be careful with any guy who gave you the number +44-7452 and asked you to add them, This number is from Isle of Man but the guy will claim that they are in London or UK at the moment.
Attached is the photo that scammer used, he claim his father is from HK and his mum is from Korea.
It's easy to tell if he is a scammer, just ask for a video call, then the guy will disappear.

Got banned after reporting a scam activity. The customer service is very rude, asked me to send a photo with three fingers up, saying that if I sent the photo I will get reverified. After I took the photo, sent the photo with three fingers up. He said oh we still cannot verify you, and we cannot tell you the reason. What a jerk he is. If you want to ban me with no reason and no matter what, why waste my time taking the photo for you?

Since using CMB every guy that I've talked to is a scammer. Stories are all the same, plus they don't usually put up a photo on their WhatsApp. Why? Cos they probably using a few different faces at a time. I've blocked & reported all these profiles. Dating websites should take some responsibility & clean them out as much as possible. I don't see CMB doing much. SO avoid these So called overseas workers, on contracts, oil rigs, engineers, military etc... never depart with your money even if they send all these stolen photos of kids, houses, the lot.
Same old tricks!

Please report him right away on Coffee meets bagel if you receive a like by this man. He will try to scam you with his charm and intellect. It is so disgusting that another human being can use the trust in love to manipulate and take from another. My heart goes out to everyone that is experiencing such disgusting behavior. Please don't give up on love, use the experience as a lesson to continue to keep your heart open to love but use your intellect to protect it.

Met loads of scammers on this site. All had similar stories. All were not living in town but planned' to move there in two months time. Talked to you every day and then asked you for money to repair equipment. Check the photos of them.

Despite paying for premium, I find very few profiles available in my age range (over 35). Not scammers like I'm reading about here, though I had one connection early on with a woman who seemed to be a 10' interested in me. Now I wonder if that was a teaser scam. Not a single date from this site

Verified purchase

One day, I was suddenly logged out of my Coffee Meets Bagel account. Problem was it was linked to an old phone number, so I had no way of getting back in.

I reached out to customer support and they gladly updated the phone number linked to my account, but this took a few days to do. Would've been easier if they had a self service tool to do it like other dating apps.

Unfortunately once they updated the phone number on my account, it supposedly triggered all these security flags and I had to submit a selfie to verify my identity. They refused to tell me why, and upon asking them to delete my personal information they also refused. In every email, they keep blabbering on about "safety of our members will always be our number one priority" and just blandly linked me to their terms and conditions page.

Would be nice if they could highlight exactly what the issue was instead of bringing me to a page with a whole wall of text. It's like I'm asking for something in school and they've just dump an encyclopedia in front of me, expecting me to find the answer among the hundreds of pages in there.

All this - after I simply requested for the linked phone number on my account to be changed.

Compared to any other dating app I've tried Coffee Meets Bagels was at the absolute bottom in terms of getting connections and/or dates and I was a paid subscriber. It was easily dead last compared to Match OkCupid, Bumble, Zoosk, Elite Singles, eharmony and one or two others I don't recall and some of these other apps are also quite awful. Save your money.

Bagels are fake. Almost never reply. Different countries same sex, repeated. Not one date in three months. This app is designed to string vulnerable males along to make as much as they can out of them. Shame

Scam City!
Had a guy "like" me, he was above-average looking and the right age range so I responded and started a chat conversation.
Within days he claimed to be deployed out of the country, but lived locally, and a few days later started asking for iTunes cards.
I refused.
I'm sure if I had committed there would have been increasingly expensive "favors" requested. I'm no desperate sucker.
Deleted the app.

Scammer use photos of this man to attract woman... i'm stupid enough to fell into the scam. If anyone know this person, please let him know his photos are stolen to scam women. And to all women, don't charmed by handsome face and understanding, respectful characters. If he said he is alone, orphan, ex-gf betrayed him with his best friend, please walk away. 99.9% is scam.

CMB, please block if anyone created account with these photos or photo of this man.

I was scammed by a guy I met through CMB, later found out he used picture from someone from Taiwan. How CMB verifies their account, I already reported this matter to CMB and they seems less interested. This person has man accounts which CMB cant di nothing about, they do not care about customer service.

Coffee meets Bull$#*! website is a bunch of fake profiles. I've spent over $250 on likes and not one response. On other sites I do pretty well. About 2/10 or 20%. I live in NYC. This site full of supposedly highly educated MBAs and great looking girls is so $#*!ing fake. What a joke. As bad as Tinder. DONT WASTE YOUR COFFEE OR YOUR BAGEL.

I'm a very good looking and successful guy. 6 ft tall, 153 lbs, runner actor in movies and tv.

A Zero response after $250 worth of beans purchased and used is an obvious and flagrant use of fake profiles posted on your site.

Coffee meets Bagel site is a misrepresentation of what it boasts to be. A flagrant lie and a blatant con.

Other sites I'm about 20%-30%. This site is absolutely Fake.

Tip for consumers:
Fake profiles should be against the law

I've been on various dating sites on and off if since my divorce 6 years ago. I've noticed in the last 6 months on CMB I've matched over 100 women. Very few of them typed words - most of them use the bagel icons like "hello" "your number"? Etc. I match with attractive Asian women as this is my taste in women. So out of 100 women I've matched with 100 of them or 100% are fake. They will not video chat "face only" for even 1 second for verification. Every one of them say word for word " I won't video even for a second to verify my profile for you - until we text for a long time to become familiar. Obviously this doesn't make any sense. On other dating sights people who are serious have pushed me to video to verify. Half of the matches ( about 50 out of 100) on CMB were removed before I can even chat with them as they were reported from others as being fake. I just matched with another fake Asian profile that deleted her match with me when I asked her her favorite unique restaurants in Naperville IL which has over 100 independently owned restaurants and coffee shops - as they had no answer being fake and probably a man from Africa. So the bottom line is, if a woman on CMB is an 8 or above it looks it's nearly if not 100% spam. Don't bother using them. I used to get an lot of apology emails from CMB after all the fakes they stopped answering my complaints as they know their website has been taken over from Bots. If you join them and pay money - then you're literally burning your money. Don't bother - CMB is a fake scam.
