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.

Unfortunately, it looks like this company has some political views, and discriminates accordingly. After about 8 years of my on-and-off relationship with POF, my account was canceled w/out any explanation.

Scammers
June 13, 2022

99% of the profiles are of scammers. Stay away from POF. They all ask for money or gift cards. Stay away.

Scammer site
June 12, 2022

Dont waste your money.
The disappointments are boundless, they start with the devious way the site steals money and refuses to refund, then it just gets worse with fake profile after fake profile.
Go to a reputable site, stay away from POF.COM.

Disappointed
June 10, 2022

It doesn't give you the opportunity to pay monthly Another thing is the limitations that are placed when we sign up... you really can not utilize the site. A person could feel bullied with those constant flags to subscribe. That turns me off before I get the chance to give my opinion. Why don't you offer 15 days of service then give people an option to subscribe or cancel.

I am a single male and have used POF on and of with out a photo of myself, I have had issues signing on over the years, asking for my phone number to verify it all the time.
Lately I have been asked for a photo to respond to females, I have noticed a lot of profiles male and especially the female ones do not have photos so why me a male, is it because there are more males on there $$$. Any how every time I have had a problem I have had to explain to POF staff over and over, they take to long to answer emails always saying a lot of people asking for help( why would that be?, the BS we as clients have to put up with while they line their pockets with cash).
Anyhow enough is enough I have cancelled my membership after many years their reaction to this? Could not give a stuff and asked if they wanted to do it for me, I asked them to cancel it and am still waiting for it to happen and still getting matches which I have going into my deleted box now. Never go back to POF again, there are other free dating sites out there as I have discovered.
Dont even deserve a 1 star minimum rating.

LIke all sites structured to compel expending money, always on part of men. Huge percentage of scam/fake profiles (quickly obvious once you spot the pattern of pictures that don't match age accompanied by generic profile text - suspect large number of prostitutes)... remainder are mostly highly unsuitable persons (appearance, age, circumstances). And beware - unlike other sites, this one has real customer service, forces you to pay for three months up front for the "premium" account (which is all but required in order to even try to use the site), and there are no refunds. Jordan Peterson and others have advised single men not to use these sites - now I know why.

Lots of females lie about their age. For example They say they're 32 but then you see them admit they're really 45 and don't want to date anyone their own age. Photos from 2016 as well aren't much use either

Its just a conveyor belt of single mums with tats who say " my children always come first" and women who are still waiting for prince charming and demanding men well out their League. Tbh they should be happy to get any man with the way they look

They aren't the brightest either. They still cant work out why they can only send one message a day and every single profile says the same thing "can't see likes". Change the record or pay to see them, I don't want to read your complaining about it

It advertises as a "free" site. Then all they want is money and more money so you can see al their fake profiles.

Plenty of Fraud
May 27, 2022

There are more strippers, porn stars, and whores on POF than there are normal women honestly looking for a date. It is a complete waste of money to become a paying member. And their free service is useless.

Plenty of attitude
May 20, 2022

You have women in their late 40s demanding you must be over 6foot to message them. In return you get a 5'3 single mum with tattoos who has an attitude and has seen much better days

Not a chance

Pure Rubbish

Same bunch of zero's in 2022 as 2020, major waste of time. You have a better chance winning the lotto for millions of dollars or maybe a nice two week vacation on the moon before you meet anyone on this trash app.

Horrible
May 16, 2022

It's handled by it's administrators like it's the last thing they wanna do in life. This is because in it's early stages it achieved an enormous success and so it's custodians didn't bother to maintain its integrity and took the following members lightly.

Online dating the only place where unattractive women can be picky

The women really are full of it but I'm guessing that is because of simps messaging them all the time.

It seems the more unattractive they are the bigger the ego they have. How does that make sense?

Its pretty obvious every woman regardless of how fugly she is will be snowed with messages under from desperate men

No way I'm trying to compete with other guys for women especially when they're only 2/10 at best.

What a dreadful standard of women. Zero class, all overweight and unattractive but worst of all they are nasty rude and entitled. The strangest thing is they act like they are all hot stuff despite having more tattoos than teeth

This site is too controlling of what pics I can post of MYSELF, but allows Fakes and scammers to post. I was shocked when the search button would NOT allow me to search at a SLIGHTLY younger age group, thereby limiting a broader group of women to search.
