I live with my family but I want to go to LOS ANGELES for my study. For my study I want to stay there.So i need a room immediately and I go to search to roomster.com and I see there are many rooms in LOS ANGELES.So easily I rent my room with in some days. Rooster's service & quality is awesome. Thanks
I joined on www.roomster.com just couple of weeks ago. Roomster.com was so useful. I found a roommate on this Saturday. My roommate is studing now. She is very nice, friendly & responsible. I appriciate the services of roomster.com.
This website is nothing but crap. Lots of bogus messages to get you to sign up and pay and then no one responds. Do not use this site. There are better ones out there that don't cost anything.
Just awful. Total scam. They charge you for something you did not agree to... oh they make it sure seem like you agreed - but you know and they know that you most certainly did not agree to a monthly subscription when you signed up for a trial subscription.
They have terms of 'agreement' -- but the real intent is not to inform the potential customer BUT to trick people into thinking that Roomster is actually a reputable outfit.
IT IS NOT REPUTABLE.
This company is awful and deceiving. They say once you agree to their terms and conditions you are billed automatically every month. However when you sign up, they don't make you aware of this. Their are much better websites to use for finding a roommate. STAY AWAY FROM ROOMSTER!
I tried to open account with a Visa card and I got "BAD INFORMATION" or something like that and it would not be accepted. Had to change to different card. Plus I have no idea if my email address is included with any messages (inquiries) I send so I include it in my text. Were my response messages even sent before I paid for membership today? I'm surprised I haven't got any replies.
Your site administrator needs to be fired. Extensive issues withh your site, and changing your prices for the app version is crap. It should be the same price as online version which it was $24.95 on the app version before. Plus your bugs, malware, viruses is giving customers problems with using your site.
I love this site! It is great for finding ROOMMATES for picking up a good deal here and there. After my brother told me about it, I went to that site & found a cool Roommate & I am staying with her still now. Very happy with the overall experience with this site! Thank you ROOMSTER.
Your website needs revamping. Once a email is used to look for a room. It locks you into the same email. When I tried to use a second email to separate two different choices, it wouldn't let me create a second email account. Also, I can't or don't know how to delete my email address in my account. Also, I had a certain room I wanted to rent and the rent or sent me a link that went directly to his rental opportunity. I went to get my credit card to pay, then your site sent me to search parameter. When I tried his link again it keeps sending me to search. I tried searching for his rental but couldn't find it. So I lost an good rental opportunity at the location I needed the most.
Roomster.com ( = OnlineSublets.com = SubletsWorld.com) are SCAM. roomster.com pretends to be individuals looking for roommates/tenants on sites like craigslist.org to lure people to contact them. Then they respond you with URL's like onlinesublets.com and subletsworld.com to see their pictures. Those sites redirect you to roomster.com. When you ask the house/apt owners which listings are their, they never replied.
Here are 2 examples happened to me. You can text the numbers listed below for proof. They will reply you with web addresses like below, ask you to sign up on the site.
*******070, onlinesublets.com
*******468, subletsworld.com
roomster.com also use their fake services to rip off landlords.
Roomster was such a savior for me when I needed to find a room to rent fast. I was in limbo in between places and needed to secure a place ASAP and Roomster helped me make it happen. Their customer service was super helpful in helping me find the right subscription for what I needed as well, for which I am thankful.
I canceled my subscription twice. I let the first time slide, because I thought maybe I had just done something wrong. I didn't. The second time I was careful to make sure I had canceled it, and went back to the Roomster site to make sure it was canceled. It said it was. A couple days later, I had to spend a couple hours on the phone with my bank and Paypal to ensure they weren't going to take anymore money out of my account. Essentially, they stole $60 from me that I did not authorize. From reading the reviews, it looks like I'm not the only one. Also, their 24 hour service, I called three separate and random times. They were always in a meeting. Odd, I didn't know pathetic low-lifes had meetings that lasted from noon to 8pm, and continued the next day. It's a scam, just use craigslist. Despite "the craigslist killer" it's still safer.
I shouldn't have to pay for this. There are other apps that don't make u pay. It's also bull$#*! to pay this much for the time frames. U should make it clear in the beginning that u need to pay bc otherwise I wouldn't have wasted my time filling out all my information.
I listed some rooms we had for rent with many details as to location and price. We were constantly bombarded with folks looking for something completely different (i. E., we are on a farm - clearly stated in ad - and people wanted a room that was close to the metro... or someone wanted to pay $500 monthly including utilities; ad stated clearly it was $1000 plus shared utilities.). To cap it off, they automatically bill you monthly - I signed up for a trial, had no knowledge that it would revert to automatic payment (yeah, I get it - I'm sure it was in the fine print, but there is NO WAY TO CANCEL after your initial 2 weeks). STAY FAR FAR AWAY FROM ROOMSTER!
Roomster practices a clickbait sort of business where in order to open your "messages" where you see like 7-10 of them, you need to buy a membership. Thank God I only bought the cheapest one for $11.99 for 1 week only. Then I get to see these "messages". These are NOT directed to my listing at all. The so called mesages are just other people writing that they are looking for a room (some of them at the other end of the state), so they weren't directed to me at all, just general postings. I am not sure why they were in my inbox, probably to make me buy a membership. Well, I complained about it and let's see what the answer is going to be...still waiting. Overall, I would NEVER recommend as a landlord to post your place for rent. Roomies.com is waaaaaay better.
Man those craigslisters r spooky, they dont stop harresing if u write even 1 time asking questions save urself nd do urself a favor roomster is the way 2 go. Nd btw they will hook u up if u talk to the roomster ppl.
You don't always get a timely response to a booking request. Many will not respond if you call to inquire if the room is still available when it's been rented, but it's not indicated on the site anywhere (option doesn't exist, ad not taken down). A few of the folks with ads were just trolling to see who would show up. Once you received an address to go meet with the Renter/landlord and see the room, no one was home or they wouldn't answer the door. One guy gave me a time to come by his home, then emailed that he had to go pick up his car which was parked elsewhere, so I just cancelled. I don't like playing games- don't make an appointment and then decide you need to do something else. The homes that had more than 1 room to rent had multiple people using 1 bathroom. One entry in an older home had a loose handrail going up the steps to the front door and crumbling concrete; it was obvious that regular maintenance and repairs weren't being done. Add to that the weird oddities cluttering his small yard and on the porch that diminished any welcoming aspect to the home. There were many steep stairs to the upstairs rental. Many are not handicap accessible. I quit using Roomies.com because of these problems. Morristown and Johnson City, TN areas.
Due to privacy issues and the fact that I did not rent at any of these places, I have no photos or receipts.
I upgraded my account for 3 days for full membership, it was absolutely enough for me, NO more, 3 days for $5.95 OK!
I have used this service and understood that this is a complete $#*!. Because I have not found any real Account. Instead, a bunch of fake accounts and scum.
BUT after that roomsrer service charged me for FULL membership for 30 DAYS! $29.95!
WITHOUT ANY NOTICE! I did not want and did not need it.
NEVER use it!
I input my info in this App to rent a room in Central Florida and a woman called Shamaunee Lane, called me and meet with me in her apartment to show me the room I wanted to rent. She was charging $800 per month, so I paid her thru PayPal 1 month and deposit $1,600. Then she kicked me out of her apartment and did not give my money back.
I required a room in ABSECON, NEW JERSEY and I search in Roomster.com. I totally wonder to see that there are many rooms.So I rent my room according to my budget.So Roomster is the best site in usa. I recommend this site all time. Thanks Roomster.

Answer: These are untrue statements. We have asked our many satisfied customers to post their positive experiences about Roomster to counteract the negative, and mostly untrue statements posted about us. If you notice that Sitejabber has negative reviews of almost every company doing business in the united states. If it was all true, there would be no business left and everyone would be out of work. People never write good reviews, people love to be negative. Its sad.
Answer: Hi Aminah, Roomster did not post that ad on Craigslist, we did not create that link and there fore we can not offer support for it. This looks to be one of our affiliates, who should not be doing this. We will be removing this person from our affiliate program. Thank you for bringing this to our attention.
Answer: That makes little to no sense. Undeleted? What does that even mean? N you want to create an account after you deleted it? Go ahead.
