This is more than just Flirt.com review. I was a paid member with Flirt and still am a paid member at Zoosk and eHarmony and have a free membership with Match.com, POF.com, OkCupid and Tinder. Here is what is the biggest common problem with all of them - way too many fake profiles. Flirt IMHO has the most of them, I think due to Flirt partnering with other dating sites. And yes, Flirt Support, I have read your generic response "We are working on options to protect you from scammers. Please report suspicious profiles to us". Well, you are NOT doing a good job at this and all I've been doing is reporting fake profiles. Not a good job at all! The only good thing I found about Flirt.com (that's why I gave 2 stars and not 1) is their payment method - you can try the site for a day, a week, etc. and just cancel if you don't like it. Zoosk, to me, does the best job of other sites eliminating fake profiles because they ask members to verify their pictures using their phone camera but unfortunately it is not mandatory.
So, because of the above, meeting someone REAL on ALL these sites is pretty much a lottery, with just a little bigger chance of 'winning' than the actual lottery. And, unfortunately, same as with the lottery, you need to actually buy one to have any hope of winning. All those 'I Found My Love' reviews are either lies or the lucky ones who were able to 'win' this dating lottery.
There are also too many who lie about their age and looks. They either post pictures from 20-30 years ago or, for example, say they are 45 years old but person on the pictures is more like a grandparent in their 70s or 80s.
The 'Catfishing' is the worst! And those people have perfected their scams. They sound (in writing) very realistic and even send very real pictures, probably stolen from a valid profile or a person. EVERYONE PLEASE DO NOT REVEAL ANY PERSONAL INFORMATION VIA CHAT OR EMAIL! At least not until you're 100% sure it is a 'real' person.
Another problem is that after you saw a profile you liked and you reached out to them, there is no way of knowing WHY you did not get a response. Were they fake, did they not have a paid account and could not respond, or they just simply did not like you -- there is no way of knowing why you did not get a response. Even the ones that DID 'like' you back, do not send any response after you actually reach out to them. Unless it's a Catfisher of course.
I am a 50 years old male. And I am looking for a female. So, this is to all the women out there around my age range who are on these dating sites:
Please stop expecting the likes of Tom Cruise, Brad Pitt, Chris Hemsworth, etc. on these dating sites! Men like that do NOT need to be on those sites to find a woman. So, if you see a profile with a 45-50 old man like that, that is most likely fake. Or you need to go a quickly buy a lottery ticket
Also, all my life I've been taught that "A man falls in love through his eyes, a woman through her ears". I do not know if/what changed in these past years but if that is still true women need to look 'presentable' to men. Luckily, we men have all kinds of different tastes and views on what 'presentable' means to us. So, please try your best and PLEASE give men a chance and at least communicate with them and hear what they have to say. No one on these sites is obligated to anyone, so if you do not like what you hear it is OK to just say Goodbye.

Anyone recall back in like 2007 when AIM released the first auto bot you could chat with? When It couldn't answer a question at first I was give u an excuse from a pool of twenty unique questions. It was actually quit impressive at the time for being AI like. This bots are not impressive considering it's been 15 years.

Anyone who challenges the fasct this are fake I suggest you try to get a very simple answer to a question that code will error out on every time. Such has adding two DIFFERENT types of variales that both repsent the same thing to humans. Aka a digit writen as a word, and a integer written as just the one digit number. And one u do this the bots going to send a prewrriten offended message. No human I've ever met goes on a data site and is offended whn someone wants to justrify they r real, if anything a real person will get some reassurance that you also are real. Want a 3 letter one that the average 5 y. O. can figure out btu not one bot on their site can? "can u think of another way to write this?: $lX
Prehaps this is just part of growing up aswell, but typically when in search of romances, regardless of form, i don't look for this as the opening line anymore... some form of" how have your experiences been with the sites UI been so far" prehaps its just me tho. Starting EVERY convo OR asking withing the first 3 sentences in over 90 concurrent chats...
To make it more frustrating, they have an admin that ALSO is a bot, (it tells you its a bot if u read closely) but if you report a bot as a fake profile the admin bot sends u a message claiming they loooked into it and it checks out about 5 seconds later. Man they have some good turn around time, almost seems impossibly fast. The best one tho I received 4 messages in under 10 seconds from a profile that came accross real via pics and wording, only the 4 messages were each over 170 char and had no typos. Which would me I was chatting with someone who could type over 4080 WPM... since running a jack hammer on your keyboard would be slower its kinda hard to believe, also since literally the world record on a qwerty style (normal) keyboard is held by barabra b - at 212 wpm without misspellings, with the avg word length being 5 char... idk 200x the word record... psh maybe I just don't know were to find good coke anymore more ya know?... if this isn't enough evidence then there's no point in me continuing.

ALL THESE PROFILES ARE FAKE CHAT BOTS, NON OF THEM ARE REAL> THIS IS A SCAM!

I tried out flirt.com for a little over 3 months. I became a paid member right off the start. One thing I noticed is they charged me for services I did not agree (or neglected to read about in their ToS). Suddenly I was subscribed to 2 more sites and an additional service. I noticed the extra charges on my bill. I called up my bank and had them removed. But there was more to their scam.

For the first month I was able to chat with women and even hooked up with one. However, after the first month I noticed very distinctive patterns in answers to questions I was asking. Many of the women were either not answering my questions and would respond with some other irrelevant answer or they would give very simmilar responses to each other. Then I started experimenting and deliberately started asking questions a human should be able to answer (favorite color, where they grew up, favorite animal, etc). Again the responses had nothing to do with the questions I was asking. I started chatting on the public board and many other guys were experiencing the same things. We we're all talking to bots.

I also noticed when I had previously sent messages during the first month I got read receipt notices. That stopped and could not confirm if any women at all were receiving my chats. I experimented again and texted almost every woman in my area (almost 100). No response. Now I knew something was up.

I had a female friend sign up and tried sending her messages. She didn't get any of them. When I called their customer service they initially said it was an issue they had with my account and were trying to fix it. 2 weeks past and no change. When I phoned again the Car tried to blame the way I worded my profile or that I had not uploaded enough pictures for women to take interest, which had nothing to do with my initial compaint about confirming why I wasn't getting read receipts.

I had enough. I set up a phone recording app on my cell and called Flirt again, this time I insisted to speak to a manager. He did in fact talk to me and started feeding me the same bs about my profile not being adequate. I told him I had a female friend who was not getting my messages and that I suspected them throttling my ability to contact women and that the overwhelming majority are boys. He kept reading from his script. I finally said I wanted a full refund. He initially refused until I said I had recorded the conversation and would turn the recording over to the police fraud division and news media. I got my refund for every cent.

It's nothing but a scam. Do not use this site. It's a rip off and you'll waste your time. They lure you in for a month then screw you like you want to screw the women (bots) on there.

HOLD UP CROSSED STICKS! (1st warning) Was routed to it when trying to access Tinder. Based in the beautiful British Virgin Islands, Fart (uh...) Flirt will lure you into a paid membership by (Second warning) unlikely numbers of messages from other gender per day. You pay for a three-day trial (yes I was that stupid) and presumptive access to all those other gender types. But (3rd warning) send 20 or so "are you real" messages out and you get no replies. In other words all the profiles are fraudulent. Now you try to get them to turn off the recurring charge ($36.41/mo - geez!) that starts at the end of the three days. Theirs is a cancellation with a lot of steps to it. Stupid people will be baffled. Eventually, you are given a "cancellation code" that you have to give to a butter-voiced customer disservice representative who will then try to sell you on one of their other products ("Hotties.com" or some such). You get done with him & he promises a confirmation e-mail. It comes. It looks fine. But a week later the monthly charge shows up on your charge account. You contact them with a copy of the cancellation and they reply that you were never enrolled in Flirt.com to begin with, but something like Buggery.com, which you never cancelled out of. Now, since you already know their next move, you have to close out your charge account to prevent further charges. You get next a quasi-apologetic note that tells you you did not follow proper cancellation procedures, that they have no record of your cancellation, but since they cannot therefore refund you, they will transfer your profile to "hotties.com," or some such. So again you send them the cancellation confirmation they sent you and finally throw a tantrum, letting them have it because 1) all you had to do l was look at my two e-mails so far that show your own note; 2) And what is this lie about transferring my profile, since you say it never was where I put it to begin with, and which I completely extinguished (or so the record says) before they transferred it. 3) So delete everything you have on me in all your products and give me back my f**king money! So that's where it's at today. You have to look into international agreements on wire fraud, I suppose, to pursue your threat of criminal complaint, as all their practices fit the definition... or catch a flight for the British Virgins loaded for bear.

HUGE F'IN RIPOFF SAVE YOUR MONEY!

AVOID AT ALL COSTS

This is the worst site I have ever been on
Like some others I signed up for 3 days for $3.99 and got charged the $24,99 as well
The responses seem automated but my guess is they are paying some poor women (or men) is a third world country to reply.
The conversations and responses are innane and if you try to ask anything outside of the square you get even more stupid responses!
AVOID AT ALL COSTS

25/7/16
So far the site has not contacted me in regards to my query about being charged twenty eight dollars despite their initial automated response of usually getting back to people within 24 hours - it has now been 72.
Again - every time I actually chat to someone who claims to be "real" and in my area - they are unable to answer a simple question like "how is the weather?" And not surprisingly soon after I insist on an answer the conversations stops!
I have also had several requests to chat on skype - for a fee of course!
DO NOT WASTE YOUR MONEY

25/7
Update: as expected - they have stated they will not return my funds - and I have informed them of my intention to continue updating and expanding bad reviews.
If you read this please add a vote.

8/8
The initial mass interest that a new profile gets dies off very quickly - once they have your money I suppose! So I started to have a bit of fun with the chat - asking basic questions about the weather and to specify what suburb as opposed to the general city. I even started responding with a "No, I wouldn't" when asked the usual questions of do you want a sexy chat. It was fun at first and then I got bored so even started being a bit offensive - I don't like to do this as I believe in manners. Even after displaying my uninterest and abuse, those that were in chat would still keep going until the inevitable - "I need to go now but you can please contact me at..."etc.
Th funniest response I got was "I want to ride on your huge dong" and so I asked "what is a dong?":-) I tried to ask this a few times in a few different ways even suggesting that I only had a ding and no dong unfortunately.

This site is such a total scam!
DO NOT WASTE YOUR MONEY!

Further Update 8/8 - Just checking my credit card amount they have charged me a further $44.27 two days after they stated that "my membership has been cancelled and no further payments would be deducted from my account"
Beware!
Now in the hands of my bank

29/9
A final update - the charge of $44.27 was a claim that I had not cancelled my subscription in time and so I was charged a months fees. Just shows what a complete rip off this site is!
After forwarding all the information and emails to my bank the charge has been reversed! So F*** you Flirt!
I have just now received "account removal" emails from 6 sites being
Flirt
Shag together
Shagaholic
Horny Contacts
Best Sex Match
Naughty Date

Careful to what you sign up to and think you agree to - I had no idea but my guess is to avoid ALL these sites as they appear to be linked.
So for one final time
AVOID THIS SITE AT ALL COSTS
And pay no attention to the positive reviews as I believe them to be mostly fake!

Thanks for this site I've met a nice lady, So I want to remove and for me it's so difficult to do.

90% are paid teasers.

I can't believe that this site is actually running. It is nothing but a scam. FRUED TO BE PRECISE! 95%+ of the SO CALLED WOMEN on this site are computer generated ROBOTS not real people who are actually lookin to meet or do more than send you hundreds of messages that are identical (winks are flattering, now please send me more info about yourself) after I've just sent a very detailed message explaining wat I'm like and wat I'm looking for LOL I don't believe that I fell for this $#*!TT and signed up and paid to chat with nothing but ROBOTS! How selfish, degrading and immoral can a site be. I get between 100-200 messages in a day, I reply to as many as I can and get the IDZAKTLY same message back from each and everyone of them. Out of the 500+ messages I've sent and received I honestly believe that mayb just maybe 2 were actually human! I will be demanding my money back! PLEASE PEOPLE DONT BELIEVE AND BE FOOLED BY THE BIGGEST DATING FRUADULENT SCAMMING SCANDAL OF ALL DATING SITES OUT THERE! Hav trust in ALLL the reviews from REAL PEOPLE who are pisst off bad that they ever came across this pittyful rip off scam I've ever come across! Fukn dogz, how dare they. Leigh. The
