Where to begin. In short, OkCupid sucks badly, stay away from giving them your money, it doesn't worth it, AT ALL!

I feel ripped off, their tactics feels like a scam, just to fill their pockets. They don't want you to find anyone, they only want to keep you around for your money, use you. I mean DUH, why would they really care if you're happy in life?

At some point I got like over 200 likes, and finally gave in because of my curiosity, and because of the pathetic discovery section, which seems to be always empty (only like 5- 10 offers every day), if you're on there everyday searching for your woman. OR sometimes it seems to reset, and you'll get a whole bunch and can swipe for hours, but those profiles you already had swiped left on anyways, so no new women, just wasting time!

So I paid for one month, and there you go, most of those likes came from Kenya Africa, only like 20 in my area, but after cleaning them all out, I ended up with only - 1 - like left I was considering to contact. When I did, I got a reply, that she liked me like 2 years ago, and it didn't go nowhere anyways. So obviously OkCupid is holding hostage of the women who like you. If you never pay, you'll never see all of the real woman in your area who likes you, or their intro... (But this doesn't mean you should pay to see those likes, don't do it, trust me, I doubt the feeling will be mutual, unless you don't care and go for ANY woman)

Also you don't really get anything else than just being able to see who (fake) likes you. Ok, you can scroll through questions you didn't answer yet, but I'm not bored to check this section out (since it sucks so much that they took away the ability to search certain answers to questions you're only interested in. Did you ever try to scroll through hundreds of answers? Are you bored?). You still have to pay extra, ding ding ding, for Boost, and (new) additional super likes, etc...

So in that one month of membership, I'm still single, neither did I make out with someone. I only got to like like 3 women because of the lag of choices in discoveries, no one matched back, just crickets... Also, the actual reason I had to sign up on here, and write a review is, that in that one month my like inbox only got 3 new likes, but as soon my membership ended, and I couldn't check my likes anymore, I got at day 1 already 25 new likes! Day 2 it raised to 42 likes, and today, day 3, I got already 65 likes, no wait 67 now! But they can kiss my sweet ***, never going to sign up again, rather throw my money into the fire pit.

Other reasons OkCupid sucks hard:

When they changed their nice old system to the same swipe like Tinder crap. I wish I never had gotten single again. I remember the days when I was able to scroll threw all the profiles in one overview. Beforehand I could set my filters, and only got those shown. Also I was hiding each profile I didn't want to see anymore, so at some point I really got to see only new members, or the ones I didn't contact yet. But these days, it's just broken. For example my max height looking for set to max 5'7, distance max 25 miles, but in the discovery section they show you everything. Women 7' tall, hundreds of miles away, what a freaking waste of my time having to swipe through all of them! Also as already mentioned, you can't search for answers no more. It just sucks, I should just delete my profile, but it's hard to give up hope, so here I am, still wasting my time on there, but at least for free because a membership does not give you any REAL advantages!

I really hope I could help you a little by the choice to rather saving your money, and spent it else where!

I was a long time user, well over a year and paid for Basic Service as it worked quite well for me. I had to renew so I did the same "Basic" service only to find out the features I wanted had been moved to "Premium" but I could not pay until Support reset my account. Ok, so I will pay the Premium price. I did and my bank flagged it as an online fraud transaction, not a problem and good for them, but it locked me out of Cupid. I contacted support(The software for Billing is just worse than pathetic) asked them to reset my account since it is the only way to fix it and I would do Paypal.
Instead of helping me spend money they locked me out completely and Support has been unresponsive.
So they block a customer willing to spend money,, GIANT RED FLAG.
As someone who has spent 25 years in the software industry all I can say is the interface for each person is very good and easy to use. But it stops there and OMG this is the buggiest site I have ever come across.
For starters I would see what I "Disagreed" with someone on a question and we matched perfectly, yet Cupid flagged it as unmatched.
It gets even better, I noticed I would see the "Like" popups come up when I got on the site. When I went to the "LIKE" section they were nowhere to be seen. I contacted support and no answer. A few days later I get flooded with "LIKES" I start going through the list and find out most had "LIKED" me months ago, some over a year ago and I had never seen them. A GIANT RED FLAG
Then the recent ones that I had a conversation with just disappeared for no reason. One we were exchanging emails and she was still on and could see me, but I could not see her. GIANT RED FLAG.
None of the messages are dated or time stamped, really? Such a simple thing. Plus the messaging system is not user friendly at all. A simple thing like hitting the "ENTER" key does not give you a new line it sends what you typed. In my life I have never seen a system do that,
The Billing system is just horrible. If anything goes wrong with your payment, you don't get a chance to correct it like any other site. It does not come back with any errors and locks you out of your account until Support resets it. I have programmed Billing systems and this is first grade type of functionality.
I could rattle on about how bad the matching system is when it shows me people 100 miles away and I specifically said no more the 50.
This site just has too many problems so I am off it for good. I would steer clear of this one there are too any other dating sites that actually work as intended.

At one time, about five years ago, OKCupid was an excellent online dating site, with a great algorithm. However, over time it has deteriorated, all the while they have become incredibly greedy charging ridiculous fees for even the most basic features.

Since 2016, OK Cupid has completely redesigned its site, removing many of the wonderful features which were both fun and afforded excellent value. These unique features brought it fame as one of the best and most comprehensive dating sites. Alas no more, since on and on the erosion continues…

Until a few days ago, as a basic (paying) member it was possible to select members freely and send unlimited personal intro' messages. However, yesterday all that changed. Sending messages, is yet another feature which has been removed and replaced with a stupid childish tag "Superlike".

This latest move to discontinue "intro" messages, truly beggars belief and frankly speaking, has to be the ultimate in lobotomised idiocy. Even a child in primary school can understand ‘good communication is an essential cornerstone to secure a good relationship'. So as I see it, for OK Cupid only two things matter: Greed, stupidity, greed, stupidity, greed, stupidity, ad infinitum —

So sending intro' messages is no longer allowed, (I remind you this IS a dating site) and the "Superlike" is limited to just one a week, unless of course, you pay more!

You want more "Superlikes"? - Pay more! £3,35ea. Or £2,03ea., if you purchase 5. Great value!
You want to see who likes you? - Pay More!
You want to send a message? - Pay More!
You want to see popular members? - Pay More!
You want more people to see you - Pay More, with "Boost"!
You want to see more than ten members a day? - Pay More! …Get my drift?

So, now the "Basic" paid membership is effectively utterly useless, yet at still £12,75 a month, it will allow you to write to 4 members! Yes, you read that correctly: 4/month!

As for the interface it is a complete joke – Nothing works! Supposedly you can enter the type of person you wish to meet, such as religion, height, race, location, etc., but all of this is utterly useless since none of the filters work.

As an example, I am located in the UK, so if I were to enter a distance limit, of let's say 50 miles, the search will display women from Japan, Philippines, Brazil, USA, and many other remote places. This result applies to any combination of filters, thus all the selection filters are redundant.

But all of these ridiculous flaws aside, the biggest problem with OKC are the endless fake profiles and scammers. You will find yourself investing an inordinate amount of time creating a comprehensive profile and sending out dozens of intro' letters, alas all for nought. So very, VERY few ever reply, clearly indicating most profiles are either fake, abandoned or obsolete.

In conclusion my advice is please don't waste your time and money. OK Cupid is just another very greedy site milking its members for all they can get yet offering so very little in return! Absolute rubbish!

ZERO customer support.
SAME OLD faces; no matter what you set your filters (likes/dislikes) OkC serves up same faces. "Why even waste time filling out preferences?"
Or better yet---WHY EVEN CONSIDER SIGNING UP?
****Read these negative reviews!**** Caveat Emptor!
I CANNOT even log in to delete "ALL MY PERSONAL INFO" which is IMMORAL if not illegal!
It seemed at times the whole poopox was being run by computers---maybe there are "NO HUMAN BEINGS INVOLVED?"
Nah... computers are "much more efficient than the as* clowns supposedly running this "fake dating" site._________________________________________________________________________________

*****AVOID---AT ALL COSTS!*****_________________________________________________________________________________

You've been warned!

I used OKC for 2 years and I paid for A list in 2019 and also paid for the same list in 2020.
They delete me and ignore my emails to reengage my account.
Some neurotic narcist cuckoo who behave weird all the time - reported me.
This person had (100%) fake profile account and I politely try to ask the person how come their profile looks so ideal and perfect. I even used very profound and lovely words describing how superb this profile looks to me, just in case if this person was real so I don't offend her.
The person got furious, citation: "F you, you old fart, you idiot, F You 10 times. I should never contacted you, you are the low scum living in the 3rd World country."etc, etc, etc. So, this is not how innocent person behaves. If the profile was genuine and valid the person would not behave like this, believe me.

And after what happened she UNMATCHED me and reported me in seconds. It was all done in couple of hours. Hour after that OKCupid DELETE ME and NOT HER? CAN YOU BELIVE THIS. UNBELIEVABLE!
They even did not check the correspondance between us so they know who was behaving badly.

OKCUPID is the WORST FEMINIST LGBT PROTECTIVE 90% FAKE PROFILE website I still cannot belive exist and wasted 2 years of my life. My suspicion is that 99% of their admins are some sort of frustrated single feminist and LGBT low lifes that enjoy harassing normal people. OKC has literally thousands of FAKE PROFILE and CATFISHES from all around the world. So maybe 10% of them are REAL - MAYBE!

I forgive them for taking my money for A LIST and deleting my account, they probably need this money more then I do because they are SO LAME!

When I signed up for the free version within 5 minutes was told I had 22 women that liked me... but none of these people were revealed... just greyed out circles. The site informed me I had to be A-listed and buy a membership to see who liked me. It is far more complicated to send a "person" a message... they ask a lot of invasive idiotic questions... you answer them and they supposedly send these monologues to the person you wish to meet to see how well they match up... since it is impossible to match with a fictional fraud that aspect is a bad joke. The free site version and their FAQ section all say that if you match with someone, then, and ONLY then, can you directly message them. NOT TRUE. I did get a 'match' and when i tried to message them was informed I need to pay to see what they had to say to me. Since there is no indication or 'proof' I matched with anything. Again there is no customer service in the form of email or phone... you are referred to a site called "Get Human" which charges $40 per month RECURRING to answer questions and all you get is a chat box with a robot... I'm not sending the $#*! punks that run this fraud a cent. COMPLETE AND UTTER FRAUD! As I said with Tinder... call a class action atty or the Better Business Bureau or the Atty General's office... with the gov functionaries you'll get a run around and hopeless bureaucracy. Useless too (EXCEPT THE PRIVATE LAWYER). But they are pros and at least pick up the phone to keep their ancient scams running... again repetitively: I realize many of you, if you had the attention span to read this, will disagree and waste your money or time anyway... I can't say 'good luck' because luck and skill do not work with cyber frauds... with zero personnel to contact. And the final point is, and i say this to dudes because they are the only real people who are desperate enough to use these frauds... call yourself a good hooker... spend the money... get exactly what you want sexually... They are sociopaths incapable of feeling, true enough, but at least you get your biology satisfied... THE INTERNET IS 99.999% fraud. Don't you get that yet? What will it take? And here gentlemen, I take a low and theatric stage bow... and leave you to your respective follies and desperation with a lost cause... If you are over 20 and not a billionaire, completely forget american females...

I actually liked this dating site and was a paid subscriber for nearly 4 years. I mostly used it like an online crossword puzzle, basically I just answered all the dating questions and gave funny explanations to amuse myself. I only had brief conversations(small talk) with a few women and I wasn't seriously trying to make anything happen. Then last year I met someone on there and we clicked immediately and started dating briefly. She broke up with me suddenly to go back to her ex-boyfriend and I wished her well. I saw her back on the site several months later and we started dating again. This time she started having wild mood swings and paranoid jealous rages. After she cooled down one of the times she informed me that she was schizophrenic and would have persecutorial delusions of me being this cheating type and any little thing I say or do might trigger the delusions. One of the things I had done to trigger her delusions was I had forgotten to disable my OKCupid account when we started dating. This seemed pretty reasonable to me, so I disabled my account in front of her and even offered to show her my brief conversations with other women. I tried to continue dating her despite her mental health issues, but all this same crazy stuff kept coming up over and over in a short span of time and we eventually broke up. So afterwards I decided to go see what was happening on OKCupid.

When I tried to login I kept getting this message that "Were having technical difficulties, try again later". At first I thought I may have forgotten my password and I tried to do a password reset. I never got a response. Finally, I found this really cheesy technical support form that you can send into them that they mention may or may not get a response. After 2 days I did get the following email back from them:

"Hello,
You were reported for harassing users.
We have reviewed your account history and you have been blacklisted for behavior that violates our Terms of Service. Your account and photos have been removed from public view.
We don't issue refunds for accounts that were banned for TOS violations. This was clarified in the Terms and Conditions you agreed to when you joined the site. Here is a link to our Terms and Conditions statement, in case you'd like to review it: https://www.okcupid.com/legal/terms

Please contact them directly, or follow these instructions to cancel your ongoing subscription: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4098?viewlocale=en_US&locale=en_US
We consider this matter resolved.

Sincerely,
Morgan"

So apparently I was harassing someone from my completely inactive account. I got no warning, no suspension, no reason other than them saying "You were reported for harassing users". I can only assume that the girl I had been previously dating had reported me for harassment in one of her jealous rages. This is something I definitely think a dating site should take seriously, but they should at least have some kind of proof that the accused person is actually doing something. Or was at least active on their site.

If you would have asked me to review them several weeks ago, I would have given them a very high rating. Unfortunately this is a very unacceptable way to treat any customer. If I would have bothered to read any of the reviews on this site, the BBB, and other similar consumer review/protection publications I would never have given them any money and might not have even signed up for the free service. I hope I save some of you the frustration.

They have made me a victim of harassment in the name of protecting people from harassment.
I consider this matter resolved.

I joined this dating sight last year when weak hurricane Hermine was
Bearing down on Florida. I would have gladly had my hometown taken a hit
From the swirling beotch if it meant I could have already found a beautiful
Compatible angel in my area to go out with, from this dating site. Here in
The far less metropolitan areas of Florida, online dating is especially
Difficult (at least seems to me). Even though I wanted OKCupid to work
Connecting me with someone special, I had no luck connecting consistently
With anyone almost 9 months. Like a lot of other sites, the only women I
Found interesting or attractive lived way too far away -over a hundred miles away on the other side of my state. Only a couple of women I was seriously not interested in wanted to connect with me. One who lived over 100 miles outside my hometown.
I felt OKCupid could work for me even though it didn't. Maybe I should have given them 6 months more but I just didn't have the patience after 9 months of mostly loneliness.

Pros & Cons Notes:
+ It's free to send e-mails and just as important free to read your inbox
E-mails. That's 2 stars guaranteed already for me.
- Only 10 photos of you are allowed on your profile (why not more?!)
+ Has a fun Q & A survey where you can answer hundreds of personal questions
About yourself. While it was fun, the survey asks questions that some if
Not many, might find offensive. The site app has a pretty good compatibility match system and while it's not perfect, it informs you who you most likely will have a successful relationship with(someone 75% and up is someone you'll probably get along well with!) Many singles are 0% because they've answered nothing on the OKC survey.
- I cannot see most of the single women on the web site unless reviewing available matches which disappear permanently if you accidentally dislike them and the limited matches to swipe through run out quickly.
- The search for a username on the app's site just doesn't work and never does!
- The truth is this dating site could be better in other areas. On the OKC app, I could never find any online games to play with other local singles online if they wanted. The dating app can sure get boring after a couple months.
Anyhow, I found most young women on here to be too shy, or not very attractive. Quite a fraction of their profiles I found to be fake, too brief, or either incredibly dumb, if not laughably stupid as dating profiles. Some even posted photos of pets or places or inanimate objects as their profile photo. I honestly feel like it was the selection of women on there as my problem and not OKCupid.
In spite of that, I still think this web site could hook you up with someone special if you live in a metropolitan area, or are patient enough with it or are just lucky.
If you join OKCupid, I sure hope you have better luck than I did. And, if you actually pay, it's fair value for what you pay for though I still thought that I should've gotten more for what I paid. OKCupid is better than a lot of other online date sites but, on other hand, good results are what matters to me. I connected with no one on here in 9 months (Sob. I'm not a SOB either.) I may give them another try off in the future, though my profile is disabled right now.
Nonetheless, I enjoyed their app on my smartphone when it had no bugs in it. I give them 2 and half stars ( I'm actually stuck somewhere between Meh and "Okay"! 2 & half / 3 stars).

I don't even know where to begin with this review. I have been on Match.com several times and have noticed a lot of the same people on OkCupid, so I figured instead of paying for Match I would just get on there. I have been on before and it was kind of disturbing, but this past time topped it all.

I was only on for three days and had to take my account day for all of the verbal abuse from the men on this site. Everyone just wants hookups. Even when you take the time to fill out a nice profile.

I am 25 and had a 50 year old man with 20 year old triplet sons ask if I would date him. He said that I could date whoever I wanted, but he would remain faithful. I politely told him this was a turnoff for me and that he was out of my age range. He proceeded to call me an "ignorant brat" and said that hopefully me going to college would open my mind. That doesn't come down to having an open mind, it comes down to being taught to have self respect. I'm not judging him, just not what I was looking for.
I had a guy message me nothing other than saying "You're spoiled is what you are."
One guy asked if I was into friends with benefits.

Another kept insisting I was fake and told me he "did't have time for that." I have a truck that I enjoy modifying and the guy accused me of having a truck "fetish." He kept telling me to take a selfie and put it up so he could see what I looked like. The photos I had posted were literally from two weeks ago. I have a DSLR camera and had my mom take pictures. No, they weren't your typical bathroom selfie pictures, but it's sad if someone thinks you're not real because you have decent pictures up.

I had a married man ask if I wanted a "married sugar daddy."

Another guy kept saying I needed to read his profile and go out with him so I could take my profile down. He kept blowing me up with messages and said he always goes after what he wants and didn't care how many times he had to message me. He was so pushy I just told him I was done talking. I also jokingly said I didn't want to be locked in someone's trunk. My profile specified that I am sarcastic. I wrote him a message back and he told me it was too long to read. That he received his PHD in three months and that I needed to take my "Dunner Krueger" elsewhere. I'm sorry, but how stupid did this guy really think I was? He also told me that homeschooling made me too cautious of people. I explained to him that a girl got raped 10 minutes away from my house by a guy she met on Plenty of Fish, so I explained that I was cautious. He told me he "didn't give a $#*! about some girl who met a lowlife guy."

I had another guy message me twice and said "you don't want me?" I didn't even know his name!

There are a lot of foreigners on this site and after reading about all the scammers it has me very suspicious of who was actually behind the screen.

All of these scenarios literally happened in three days. You can't even report these guys because the moderators don't care. I was basically bullied off the site. I couldn't stand the constant slams and harassment. It's basically you have to go out with every guy that messages you. If you turn them down, don't answer them, or don't give out your number right away, they won't politely go away, they turn on you and continually insult you until you have to block them.

Everyone on this site is jaded. They are on here to either have women stroke their ego and if you don't give them that, they will verbally abuse you so bad to try and boost their sorry egos that way.

If you are a woman with any ounce of self respect, run the other way and find another outlet to meet people!
