Resolved last min. Housing issue
August 30, 2021

It's a job in itself weeding out the scammers, but once you find legitimate people, this resource is clutch. Saved my lady and I from being homeless.

I have had good experiences with this site a couple of times in the past, many years ago, so I decided to use it again.This experience however, has been horrible.I contacted customer service to let them know that the home I found on their site and ended up moving into, was not safe for future renters. Several things about their ad were not accurate or truthful. The landlord had been inappropriate and aggressive from the moment I signed the lease, and was attempting to rent out other rooms as well. I was concerned another renter would be duped. Customer service I told me if I sent them proof they would address it. I sent them several screenshots of weird, aggressive texts sent by my landlord and didn't hear back from roomies.com for several days. When they finally responded they told me it wasn't their problem, they weren't going to help me, and I should go to the local courthouse to find out what my rights were. They allowed my landlord to keep her ad up and it is still up several months later. The staff at roomies.com is astoundingly unprofessional and completely negligent in their consideration for the safety of renters. I can only imagine how many thousands of terrifying landlords they have been warned about all over the country and they allow them to keep their ads up. This site is horribly unsafe for renters because of the behavior of roomies.com employees. Your safety is at risk if you use roomies.com!
Update: Inappropriate behavior by a landlord towards a tenant is not a disagreement. Deceitful ads are not monitored or reviewed by the roomies team at all when reported-that is a lie. After asking for evidence and it was provided, it was specified to me by a roomies employee that you only care about their on site activity-not their behavior in the home with a tenant. That can be horrible and roomies.com will happily still leave the ad up. Your response should tell the public everything they need to know.

Hi Rebecca,

Roomies puts a lot of time and effort into keeping the community as safe and secure as possible. When reporting another Roomies member, we ask for supporting evidence to ensure our security team makes the proper decision. All reports are reviewed and noted. We understand how frustrating it can be to have a dispute or disagreement with another roommate. We will continue to monitor the account reported.

All the best,
The Roomies Team
