Ive looked at this site over years I made one friend, so when you find someone who is real and actually local and tries to talk to you the site puts every possible obstacle your way to prevent you ever actually talking to anyone, paywalling everything, stopping you sharing contact details and it fires off automated messages between everyone presumably to stimulate conversation but this actually leaves you confused if any conversation is real or not. I don't imagine paying for the site is much better and this platform is the same on several other similar sites. Its actually cruel the way they work so hard to keep every possible connection apart from each other all they want is money and you just want to have some conversations, you just end up talking to yourself, avoid avoid avoid its miserable and very depressing and yes the site owners should be pursued for cruelty and fraud. I wonder if anyone has ever actually beaten their rigid system to talk and to date its doubtful.

This site is full of scammers, Russians, Ukraine, Nigeria, Ghana, USA.

It appears every bad egg is resident in this basket. I've been on a month and I'm off to find somewhere safer.

Not one sniff of anything half decent who isn't trying to rip me off. Reported one profile as fraud could have easily reported nearly everyone really.

Site could be very good but it needs policing properly. Also appears to have server issues as takes forever to load and sometimes times out.

Won't be missed my advice is avoid

Full of fake profiles
September 19, 2017

The worst site ever! Full of scammers nothing done when reported. Takes forever to load that's if it does load. If you do find someone genuine ( highly unlikely) you won't believe them as so used to fake people.

Fake, Fake, Fake
May 24, 2017

If you didn't read the headline it is fake, Full of scammers. I was on for about a week and was contacted 3 + a day by obvious scammers. I set up a fake email and right away it was foreign scams. I have an intensive security on my laptop so I clicked on the upgrade/buy credits tab and my security program kicked in with a warning. So DO NOT enter any sensitive details into this website in fact avoid at all costs

There are better sites like FlingFinder.club - it's good and old. It's my default site for turning to when I feel horny. I have tried out sites like LoveThing out of curiosity but they all turned out to be giant scam and time-wasters. LoveThing is not worth a cent.
Don't waste your cash on chatting with bots. A few staff members are thrown in there for good measure, but mostly you receive robotic messages. There are too many red flags for fraud on LoveThing.

Fake profiles
January 3, 2024
Updated review

Many years ago I tried this so call dating site. With different email address which was hacked. All these lady's asking for I tune vouchers etc. So these could be sold on the black market. This is known as a form of money laundering. To get my details I refused this. Even had a so called lady I will be arriving at this airport? Checked out with airport no such person is arriving today. Preying on the lonely people to give out details. No chance scammers fake profile. Email address was so basic did not mean a valid address. Recently looked at this site. Came up with a code. Which I did not carry on, there was no profiles that match my age etc. Before that I seen your profile had not even entered my profile etc.

SCAM SCAM SCAM
May 9, 2021

I joined this site years ago but as I thought it was so poor I never bothered to fill out a profile. Imagine my surprise when years later I started to get messages from beautiful women saying they loved my profile and thought we were a match. Really! I have no description and no photos but I admire the sites attempt to get their hands on my money through this scam. Please steer clear as the sites obviously not legit.

This is not a dating site but a con site. I believe the owners of the business themselves are crooks otherwise they wouldn't allow such things in their names. Please people don't go there! It's a danger site and should be referred to NCA for investigation

As far as dangerous sites go, this is pretty much the worst.
Abandoned by original owners. Now just a hub for scammers trying to get your email address an 419scams. Deleting your profile is not the end as you will be flooded by spam as soon as you do.

Watch out for shiny start ups with poor business models. They should have shut the site down as soon as they failed, instead they sold it to crooks and put people at risk.

Last year I created an account, and constantly asked for money or gifts or I tune voucher. So I deleted account and a different email address for new account no surprise I had some from old account, and exactly same picture and wording. So I replied to them saying I was going to report them to the fraud suddenly there profile suddenly disappeared not to be heard of again. After a short time after that I deleted latest address. Be wise to these scams.

Not fit for purpose
November 22, 2018

I am a Genuine member that constantly finds that my messages have been edited to non-complete one-liners some fail to send and many times correspondence just disappears. My latest issue is that I can't log in with my username or password. Unable to change password and now find it also unable to send a communication for support online. Phoned a support line which tells me Love thing have changed platform and I now need to log in through www.d8u.com as in the changeover for which I was not informed they changed my password also, and guess what that request won't send either, If they cannot provide a service keep members updated of change which will affect them Then they are not worth the membership.

I have been on lovething for about a month after paying £50

To date I have had chats with 5 different women all of who eventually asked for money

Making different excuses why they could not speak on the phone from broken microphones to dropped the phone and it broke

If any girls try to take you off love thing be very wary and drop them quick

Fortunately I have not paid a penny to theses scammers

Reverse image searches on google show where their pics come from

If you get a request to talk to any of the woman I have pictured below run fast

Once again do not trust theses people
