Charges for service, way too many prostitutes in the "looking to date but nothing serious" or "isn't seeking a relationship of any kind" area. Sucks because it makes me think ask the women in there are hookers
My account got hacked someone has stolen my identity, and changed the e-mail address. I am getting tons of messages, and I can't open them. POF never responds to e-mails, or answers the phone. Stay clear if you care about your reputation at all, they clearly don't!
You can leave pof come back 1 year later the same men still there and they only keep viewing you creepy, not serious at all.one man wanted me to let him visit me with his 5 year old daughter from newyork and I'm in South Carolina he never even meet me, some dad to have your child visit you having not know who I am, that's scary poor parent.RUN RUN. Another man said he did lawn care buy actually broke looking for a free ride no real job, one showed up on our date but, had another man in the car who gave him a ride lol. I mean really RUN! Go else where.
Had a few dates, all of the ladies were weird whether we got intimate first date or not.
The pretty ones were horrifically ugly by being arrogant and some otherwise unattractive ladies seemed nice on line.
I guess one gets what they pay for, nothing and a waste of time in general... most action takes place as soon as you sign up, then, *crickets*...
Rubbish customer service who don't reply to emails, had a serious problem regarding someone hacking into my profile, emailed pof and several times and never got an email back, never trust the back ground of this site especially when something goes wrong.
I used to be able to send a couple of dozen messages over a weekend, using an effective opening message I've developed which explains who I am and what I'm looking for. Now POF blocks them after the first few, saying copy and paste messages are not allowed.
This defies all logic; a standard greeting makes perfect sense because we know almost nothing about each other. And besides, they probably won't write back anyway so it's not fair to expect guys to invest a lot of time on a personalized opening message. The opener really needs to be standard, with the recipient's name added at the beginning if they provide one in their profile. Then the second message can be personalized sure if they show any interest.
The 14 year rule was bad enough, but now they won't even let me say what I want to say? Jeez, enough is enough. Time to look for alternatives, whether it be Tinder or a paid dating site. POF used to be good but they went too far with all their restrictions.
Most of the men on here are just looking for hookups and no real relationship. It's a horrible site. By the way Sai Brown is a married mix guy with kids. Don't contact him unless you want to be a side chick
Fake men wrote to me from all over the country -some so good-looking and manufactured that they were too good to be true. They'd write the simplest one liners, such as "Do you value family?" or "Are you creative?" or just "Hey, handsome." If I replied, I'd never hear from them again -not one of them, not ever. None of them actually looked at my profile, and half of them described themselves in their own profiles as "interested in females." I'm not a female, nor do I look like one. I'd also receive random messages from women... although my profile is clearly that of a gay man. There is nothing real about this site. It's just a scam that preys upon people looking for love etc. Someone spends their time pinging customers in the hopes of keeping them hooked into the site. The pinger doesn't even try really hard to make it seem real. What a crock.
Why does my sight not allow me to sign in. Was fine until last saturday night. I rejoin another site as though may be my computer playing up. It allowed me on there for approx 8 hours and then removed me.
Gross my husband joined this site met a desperate chic with a kid. So desperate she didn't mind he leave me and the kids for her. Now all I get is she's mad we talk to much, yea insecure women steal married men. Good luck sailor boy. Lol
I have had one response &it seems nobody has read my profile on both sides. They don't pay attention to my preferences and get bad mix of age, localeðnicity. Also unauthorised credit card withdrawals with no notifications.Are these women real then why the "canned" responses. I am totally disgusted and buyer beware!
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.
I remember when this site was fresh. Seems a bit old now. Dont get me wrong, not many sites can compete (maybe wejustfit.com but not many others) but I do wish they would add some new features or do something else for people who pay their sub fees religiously each month. Come on match, evolve already!
Get ready to see "can't see likes " as headline for virtually every female profile on there. It's just really unoriginal & a terrible first impression but they don't seem to care about that
Large numbers of truly undesirable and unpleasant females lacking social skills on their phones demanding that only the hottest guys message them.
Profiles are either full of ridiculous demands or blank and say "ask" or in "fill in later".
The only good thing was the log out button.
I would not recommend the POF dating site to anyone who is real and genuine. My experience with this company has been one of lies, corruption and the most impersonal user interface for meeting a friend.
Dreadful website
The same women seem to be on there forever with the photos that never age
Every profile is full of demands 'Make me laugh' "messages only saying hi will be deleted" "make an effort in your message" which is laughable because their profile is usually empty and also no way they're hot enough to dare be that picky about what they want. Since when do unattractive women get to call the shots?
I can honestly say I've never seen a site with so many rude aggressive misfits in my life. Doesn't take Einstein to see why they're single
Problem with pof
0.01% women are okay looking & have a friendly personality
99.9% are either unattractive/unpleasant/overweight/social misfits/mentally unhinged or deluded. Most tick more than one of these boxes
They all however think they are princesses and men should fall at their feet
I refuse to entertain any contact with these circus freaks
Not free after a few weeks, no messages can be sent or received without payment, before that... I got numerous responses all from fake accounts... some fishing for money... the account in site come up in same city, after conversation... then exchange phone number, has foreign area code... their statement saying oh I'm in another state trying to get to your city... soliciting money... more than once... for me the website is a total b. S...
I've messaged over 250+ girls and I've received 0 responses, also I'm an upgraded member you'd think that'd help right? Nope. POF is a scam for your money because they know it doesn't work. I would give it 0 stars but I can't, they've lost my business.
About 12 years ago this site was pretty cool. Lots of ladies. I really liked it. Came back recently it's totally changed. Many fake profiles and what's with the "live" crap? It's like they are trying to be Reddit or only fans or twitch. Lost the plot. Oh well there's always tinder I guess. Or I could just hang myself
Answer: Oh yes, they want you to upgrade and pay! But when you pay you will see these profiles who you liked or who liked you disappear. They were nothing but bait-and-switch. You gain nothing when you pay, it's the silliest way to spend money. Are you looking for hook up or relationship? I wanted a relationship and I was really frustrated by Pof. Eventually I found what I was looking for on https://j4l.com/402007 But I've lost nearly a year on Pof. Not to mention emotional drain and money!
Answer: I just deactivated my account. This site is a sewer. Do not pay anything for this site or any site. I searched for free on other site( even paid ones you can search for free) and I saw the same guys on most of the other sites as well. I'm gonna grow old alone unless luck steps in and maybe I'll meet my guy IRL.
Answer: Yes it is if it's anything like my phone having the app sometimes shows that you're online all the time
Answer: Delete AND contact the company. If you know who took your pictures be sure to include the name on the profile that your pictures were used on, so they can deal with that person. Once you have deleted your profile, everything is GONE. I have never had anybody use my pictures on any other sites. I'm no great beauty, that could be the reason, Still, once your profile is deleted, everything is gone.
Answer: You cannot do it from the mobile site. You need to use your search, example safari and look up pof desktop version and go to the help in the top left. It will walk you thru it, if I remember correctly. Good luck
Answer: First, write to POF and explain. Now, and I mean NOW call up your credit card company and tell them what happened. I am sure POF will not contact you. Make sure to use the word "unacceptable" when describing the consumer service to the CC company about POF. Keep all emails too. Please keep me posted. Thanks Ann B.
Answer: STAY AWAY FROM THIS SCAMMING SITE! Any good you hear from or about it... DUH ITS THE SCAMMERS THAT WORK FOR EM. I been booted so many times due to unpopularity cuz i wont date trash so i get booted they keep your money they are garbage
Answer: Fake doesn't really describe them... more like downright liars!
Answer: Golden rule #1: Do onto others as you would have them do unto you Golden rule #2: Anything that sounds to good to be true, is not. Golden rule #3: Fool me once, shame on you. Fool me twice, shame on me.
Answer: POF is not free at all, you have to upgrade; become a paying member to be able to do anything interesting.
