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.

Crazy
August 22, 2020

I found that woman I actually met and dated on POF the first one turned out to be crazy with some kind of mental illness? The second one I was embarrassed to be with the thrid one turned out she was homeless. POF is mostly full of scammers and crazy woman!

This site doesn't work
August 20, 2020

I tried this site, used interesting pictures and a detailed profile and got no dates in an entire year. It's hard to even get responses and the few times I did they were very mean out of nowhere or they are scammers trying to take advantage of you. Only male models will get any sort of response on here. Dating sites are all about looks and not about personality at all. Sites like this discriminate against ugly men. If you have a weak jaw, are prematurely balding, aren't tall enough, bad eye area, etc. then forget about using this site. You won't get anywhere with it and it will hurt your self esteem. This site promotes discrimination and lookism as only certain men with attractive physical features will get any dates regardless of profile or personality.

Horrendous
August 18, 2020

Full of women who are maybe 3 out of 10 but the problem is they all think they are 10/10 and that is what causes their downfall. They all have huge chips on their shoulders too
You have short fat unattractive women with kids demanding a tall dark and handsome guy. Normally they demand more things such as you must live within a certain area and be over 6foot 2 too
It just made me laugh, can you imagine these women going out in a bar being this picky? They would be quite rightly ridiculed yet for some reason they think it's acceptable online

Most aren't even nice people either. Most of their profiles are full of whining, complaining and making demands I didn't see any nice friendly women telling you what they'd bring to a relationship. Just what they want and what they don't want
No wonder no men will go near them. Tid have to have rocks in your heads to mail. These

Website filled with fakes from stuck up fake princesses to prostitution, scammers seeking your personal information to take advantage of the weak minded and desperate individuals. Stray far from this miserable pit.

Too many fakes.
August 1, 2020

This site has A LOT of fakes. And when reported(a mechanism on the app allows you to report fakes and abusive content), POF DOES NOTHING ABOUT IT. They also do nothing about the abusive users. Not worth the time. Stay away.

RACISTS WEB SITE
July 31, 2020

If you arent white and nude on there they allow the trolls to report you then the site blocks you, guys send sexual rape fantasy's in first messages but thats ok, right? Even when sent screen shots they dont care. I have screen shots of everything i violated nothing, yet my account is restricted? Because i refuse to reply to sexual first messages? These pigs falsely report you? And this is a tame first message, the ones about rape they wont even let me post and these are first messages from users, the same jobless losers that report you for not answering

Scammer site
July 26, 2020

Well so far most of the guys here have been just looking for sex. The one guy I decided to actually meet after great phone conversations for a couple weeks turned out was just looking for a submissive. WYH. And his pictures were from years ago, lets just say he had aged not that well. The second guy I met seemed to good to be true as well. After many conversations we finally met, had a nice night (he made me dinner). When I said well I should get going it's late, he got upset and said "hey we're both adults here stay the night" again figured I was just on this site to find a sex toy. I said not who I am, we just met I'll talk to you Tomorrow, thank you for a lovely evening. Never heard from him again. The others have just been scammers using phony pictures and profiles. Their messages that you can barely read as illiteracy runs rampid on here are broken and off the wall. Fake. It's just sad site

POF
July 14, 2020

If your political views aren't far leftist liberal your profile will be deleted even if you are a paid member. Even if you've only had your full paid membership for a day you will be deleted. This site is extremely sexist against men. It's mostly run by women who are staunch liberals.

I was hoping to find some one to love. Instead i got nothing but scams. I never join dating site before. In 3 weeks i have 4 ladies ask for money. And POF want money. Please stay away from this site. Thanks God i only join for one month, but managed to get one more payment out of me. I didn't want to use my credit card so i use paypal and paypal let them steal from me. The only thing you going to get from this site is heart. Stay away.

Scammer overloading
July 10, 2020

Pof used to be atleast half decent tho you were more likely to get dirty pics then anything tells but atleast they were real people. Pof is now over run with scammers claiming they are military and then speaking in broken English. Pof is not where you go to meet anyone other then scammers. Such a waste of time and energy.

U went through several days of the "meet me" list and at least 60% of the profiles I clicked on were inactive more than a year. Not real good at matching you up with people who live nearby.

You can't change your birthday or your desired distance of referrals with POF First of all they don't have a phone number for customer service. When I sent a request in for the above corrections they sent me back an answer to a totally different question. Since then they have never responded to my second request for the same information
So basically customer service does not exist at Plenty of fish

Worthless site
June 25, 2020

I got booted before I ever got a chance to use the site! Booted permanently. They said I violated the Terms of Service. I have no idea how. I asked them. They wouldn't say. Nothing disrespectful, no nudity, nothing wrong with what I put up.
Don't waste your time. Can I give a rating below,, zero?
Hey pof... I deleted your app. PERMANENTLY.
