Its because I have a lot of accounts its confussing for me to log in.
You guys are thieves for charging money to read messages. I mean be up front about your services costing money don't bait and then switch to the fine print that's just rude. 5 day subscription, aka pay again if you don't find a place in 5 days... wack
The site and app is poorly executed. Good idea though
Great way to connect with potential roommate matches!
Great, hope to find my home! BTW i need an unfurnished large room!
This website buffers a lot. Also- $7 to write messages? Come on.
Most landlords want money up front before I even see apt.
I have to pay at front without knowing the type of service I am getting.
How this is better than craigslist?
I have hard time to post my properties and it is not a free service to view
No complaints yet. I would like to find a cheaper place, maybe I can do that here.
You should let people know upfront that they have to pay for communicating with others.
App was broken and not letting me update the date of my previous listing. It looked like the "Done" button was hidden in the very top right corner and my screen wouldn't allow me to click there. Then I had to make a new account.
I was very surprised to not be able to access the message without purchase of your program.
Being forth right is what I expect from my tenants and would from you as well. You should have required an up front cost and not at the back end. Being unable to access messages was pretty trickie to me.
Your Roomster Corp. Terms of Use is very detailed and up front. That tells me you understand how you tricked me... stop already!
I'm getting charge every time I want to see who email me

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.
