Plenty of Fish Reviews Summary

The overall reputation of Plenty of Fish (POF) is largely negative, with customers expressing significant dissatisfaction regarding the quality of profiles and user interactions. Common concerns include a high prevalence of fake profiles, rudeness, and entitlement among users, particularly women, who are perceived as unrealistic in their dating expectations. Many reviews highlight poor customer service, including issues with account management and a lack of effective support. While some users acknowledge the site's potential for connecting singles, the overwhelming sentiment suggests that POF has declined in quality and user experience, leading many to seek alternatives.

I set my profile so that nobody who over 40, no one who has children or is overweight or smokes could contact me. For some reason these undesirables were still able to message, what's the point if they ignore your preferences?

I don't recommend as it's full of undesirables, the worst thing though is they act like they are all deserving of a great man. Their attitudes are simply appalling, you only have to see their profiles to see they've watched too many films where the princess gets the prince and believe that's what they can get.

Trust me there are no princesses on POF, not even close

Ps get ready to constantly see "can't see likes" ad nauseam, they all want to find Mr Right on the cheap

It's fair to say 25 years ago the people on POF now would have been lucky to get a date at all in the real world. They're not very ladylike

Now thanks to the explosion of online dating you have women that are should just be grateful to get any attention actually being picky and making demands as to what kind of guy they want. Well done to the simps messaging them.

I have no interest in messaging anyone on POF. You can just tell by their profiles that they revel in drama and constant arguments. Having 20 tattoos isn't very feminine either

You definitely wouldn't take any of them to meet your mom that's for sure.

If you need a refund, read my review
April 25, 2023

I felt slightly scammed like they are baiting you by hiding your matches, then charge quite a bit if you purchase a plan - and will not offer refunds if the site doesn't meet your needs. They rejected my request for a refund. Get the Chargeback app and they provide a form letter for POF - I got a refund confirmation within 24 hours.

I really like this app. It's one of the few that lets you see who is online, and it's quite easy to use. I've been using it for years and have met some great people through it.

Down hill
April 24, 2023

Just signed up today and I get 1 first contact message free in 24 hours. They have to have some mental issues if they think thats ok. NOBODY should have to pay for a dating website with how many fake accounts are active on these platforms and its hard for me to believe that POF, whos been around for about 15 years now, hasnt been making money and HAS to do these drastic things to their free users to push them into premium memberships, which are absolutely worthless because most of the accounts you will interact with are fake. I havent checked recently but their restrictions for men and women were different a few years ago when I made an account of each. Women had the ability to send more messages and see if their messages were read but men didnt. I imagine theyre still imposing these sorts of sexist rules as well as men are more likely to pay for dating sites.

Full of awful females with awful attitudes. All of them act like they're movie stars and will accept nothing less than someone tall dark and handsome even though they're the exact opposite!
Its about a million to one of you finding a decent nornal woman on POF.

I wish I could give it zero stars. Too many bots and average looking women think they're models. POF also wants you to pay for a membership before you even get a chance to test the waters, until then you're dead in said waters.

Scam don't upgrade
April 6, 2023

When I just got into this app I was able to send up to 20 first contact messages per day and I made the huge mistake of upgrading my account for 1 month because I liked the additional benefits, but those benefits lasted for one, but at day 2 it limited me to 1 message every 24 hours and prevented me to message when someone else like me back. I contact the "help" team by email interacting with a different rep every day and having to explain myself over and over again and all of them gave me the same answer suggested me to upgrade. They never read or pay attention to my issue and never got resolved. Is not about the 19.99 I paid, is the horrible experience I had and how frustrating is when there is no effort from pof to resolve the issue. Suggestion. DO NOT UPGRADE

Don't waste your money or time. All the profiles are inactive or spam. There are no actual people on this site interested in dating. I am considering contacting a lawyer and initiating a class action law suite since POF is charging you to browse fake profiles & not providing an opportunity to interact with other members.

Horrible
March 24, 2023

This is the worst site ever. I wish I could give it 0 stars. Some guy wanted me to meet him at his house but I said no since I have never met him. He goes on and lies about me and I get my account taken down when I did nothing, which I don't care because this is the fakest dating sight alive with the weirdest people and I wish this whole site would go away. It's pathetic. People are trying to find love and this site is such a joke. WORST DATING SITE EVER.

Plenty of Catfish
March 22, 2023

This site should be called Plenty of Catfish! There are more scammers and catfish on this site then actual people. It's a complete waste of money. Additionally there's no where to put the type of preferences you want in a mate. There is also no customer service to call everything is done via email.
Save yourself some time and money and steer clear of this site.

The "dating" site is full of the worst possible humans imaginable. Full of independent "curvy" one parent families all with tattoos and a truly horrible cynical outlook on both life and men. It's little wonder they are single.

If you do find anyone attractive/down to earth and normal you can guarantee their messaging will be disabled so you can't contact them.

The other 99.99% of them are truly the worst the gene pool has to offer. If you think I'm exaggerating then go take a look. You won't stay on there long. Full of time wasters fakes and attention seeking drama queens

You get what you pay for in life. Pof is free.
