FAKE ACCOUNTS AND KEEP TRACK OF WHAT YOU SAY. CONVERSATIONS YOU HAD BEFORE WITH OTHERS COME BACK IN OTHER CHATS. THIS WEBSITE FOLLOWS YOUR SEARCH BEHAVIOUR AND RESPONDS TO IT, PROBABLY UNTIL YOU ARE A RICH MF TURNED POOR UNTIL YOUR HONEY DISAPPEARED. BE VERY CAREFUL!
Some girls get paid to entertain you (not what you came for). These paid accounts do not allow you to respond for free, for which you will be prompted by a "buy now" (non paid accounts do allow this). They will keep you warm with LINE ID's, video-calls and anything to have you stay. Beware. Some examples of fake profiles below.

At the beginning I was naive a bit. Here is my story:
1. If you are new on the page, you get a huge response. You think - perfect, finaly the right site for me. 2. You chat with many "girls", so that they (guys) learn, what are your dreams. 3. They create a fake girl, who is almost a perfect match for you. They send you pictures, chat with you, you are 1 - 2 days happy, finally the right lady! Even a video call is possible! She cannot speak English during the video call. 4. She can write English, sometimes poorly, sometimes almost perfectly (?!?). 5. Latest at this moment you wake up a bit. 6. She needs money 7. Your brain starts to work again and you stop the whole madness. Happy marriage!
In reality, this site provides a very good service for little money. 5 stars. Nothing to complain about. So, be careful. It is up to you. I continue to use this site and I am a satisfied customer (except for the initial bad experience).
Yes, a few scammers on here but I do not think it is the website creating the fake accounts.
More likely real if they will talk on Line.

I have a premium account with zero ads supposedly. They upgraded the site layout and now for the last 5-6 weeks ads keep popping up when you login. I contacted customer service multiple times and the one time they replied they gave me the complete runaround of excuses and still the ads persist. Members message me that I used to know in the past and when i ask them did you message me again they say no I didn't. It has happened many times. Bots. Also I'm a member of Asiandating an affiliated site as a free member. I get many many messages there I can't answer unless i pay. 1 woman I know and trust from Thaicupid and also a member of AD sent me a message on Asiandating which I can't answer. So I asked her why send me a message on a site which I can't answer. I tell her you can easily send it to me on Thaicupid and I can answer you with my premium account there. She told me she hadn't visited the AD site in 1 month and never messaged me there. Scam site, absolutely incompetent useless customer service, fraudulent deceptive sites.
Most women are looking for meal tickets from their failed marriages with multiple kids to take care of. Deceptive profiles with lying info. The list is endless why you shouldn't sign up for this site.
I have met a few honest women although most eventually lie to you for a multitude of reasons. And remember in Thailand they have a dowry system. And even if they have been married in the past more than 1 time each time they remarry the parents want a large dowry that even Thai men couldn't afford. But being a farang you can or so they think and expect. Money money money this is what you are good for. Be leery. Might you meet someone to marry who is honest yes. Can they speak English good enough to communicate face to face without a translator, no not the vast majority. So take your chances although do it face to face in Thailand as others have stated. These dating sites are a waste of money and time in general with extremely limited results. Expect a refund when the company breaks the options you signed up for, can pigs fly

As good a dating site as the next one; some genuine, some scammers. Like anything use common sense, caution and keep your head out of the clouds. Fellas, whether your looking for love, affection or companionship in the east or west, let's face it, as a man, and without sounding jaded, you're a resource for the fairer sex regardless, be it financial, emotional or whatever else you get objectified for, we're all fair game :) At least you know where you stand up front with the many beautiful Thai ladies. Be happy and enjoy life. Thumbs up to the land of smiles.
What is the point of signing up to a dating app/ website if you can't even message the women you get matched with?!
Honestly do not waste your time with the $#*! website.
Dear Matthew,
Sitename offers two types of membership: Standard and Paid. As a standard member, you can still enjoy numerous benefits such as sending interest to other members and communicating with paid members. Please contact us at www.thaicupid.com/en/help/helpdesk if you have any further concerns.
My account was hacked within 30 hours of being established. The parties accessed both financial information and my account verification information (in my case, a driver's license). I notified ThaiCupid immediately. And... no response. I followed up. And no response. I would not recommend this site to anyone until they secure their site.
Dear Jon,
We sincerely apologise for the unwelcoming experience. Please contact www.thaicupid.com/en/help/helpdesk so we can investigate the issue and assist you further.
I have been on this site on two occasions about 3 years apart. If they ask for money tell them, "only If we chose each other and get married I will take care of you and your bills but not before that." If they keep forgetting, then keep reminding them. They come up with all kind of things to ask for money every week because Thailand is a very poor country and unemployment is very high. And government does help people or elderly. On top of that they think all western-foreigners are richer compared to them. But I met a lady which told me from start she has no job but seemed serious. Since she had a house and family at home, she was able to get a tourist visa for the first time to come to US. I paid for her ticket and told her it is none refundable, and you have to go to American Airline in Bangkok Airport to pick it up. It all worked out she got Visa for 3 months and came stayed with me in US. Then she made second trip a year later and they extended her visa for 10 years this time. It was good but I did not marry her. Now I am back on this website again. First week on website I texted and showed interest to as many as I thought I liked with no kids, education and good looks. Usually 5 out of 12 responded. I had good luck, there was a lot of good looking girls this time. After chatting on the web site for two to four days, I asked them we go to Line App to chat. Line App is very popular in Thailand everyone has it. From there I narrowed it to 5 women that I really like. And at the same time, I deactivated my ThaiCupid account, so they know I am serious about them and are not looking for any other girls on the website. But did not tell anyone I am talking to 5 women. Now I am talking to 5 beautiful girls which eventually drop down to 3. If I get serious with any of them then I will go visit one of them and bring them here with a fiancé Visa or see if they can get tourist visa and come to stay with me in US. But I highly recommend using your common sense and not limiting your self to one girl at the beginning there are some bad apples, but time will tell which ones or which ones you do not like to be with. Till you get the one you want.
Scammers everywhere! Infested with scammers! Got messages from fake women with pretty pictures and I am required to upgrade just to respond. No way!

I was a free member so I couldn't read or see any messages I received. Then a really hot girl sent me a message I really wanted to see her message so I paid for a month.
As soon as I paid, she stopped responding. She didn't answer for a whole month. When my membership ended after a month and I became a regular member who could not send or read messages, she sent a message immediately. REALLY REALLY STRANGE
However, I met other women through thaicupid. They weren't so beautiful but I'm not beautiful myself so I can't make demands. The women on thaicupid are a bit like us who register us there. Nobody really wants them so they see the internet as a last resort to meet someone.

The site itself has warnings so not sure it's their fault but beware of scammers. Red flags are getting you to migrate off the site(eg to Hangouts), early declarations of love, and more. When these occur be careful there's a train coming and it will run you over. The pressure to "help"is bound to happen just before some liason, try & stay detached emotionally
Not perfect but only reliable site together with Thaigirls4u. At least here in Sweden, not sure how they work in other countries. Use your common sense to avoid scammers and you will be fine.
I stayed on this site few weeks and carefully picked 3 woman aged 37, 39, 44 {i am 50}
I started communicating with these ladys i Skype and LINE. 2 wimin had Master degrees, 1 high school. My experience
After know ing these ladies for 5 months:
1 lady was clearly after money so i stopped
With her after 2 months. 2 ladies were real thing. I had to choose on of them and i have visited her 2 times In north of Thailand. She is warm attractive funny
And caring woman. Never talks about money. My salary is 10 times bigger than hers so i give her some money, that is part of the relationship from my point of view.
One more thing: When selecting girl friend from Thai cupic, make sure that girl do not
Live or stay In areas which are known of turist traps such as Pattaya, Phuket...
Look also very carefully the profile of the woman. If she speak good english with low education be careful. Also make sure that lady has a Job to earn her own money.
My account was suspended because they wanted to verify my identity for credit card purchase. They asked me to upload my passport copy I declined for security reason. It was just a waste of time for me.
Dear Ksura,
In order to prevent fraudulent payments on our websites, our billing department reviews certain transactions.

Please contact www.muslima.com/en/help/helpdesk if you have any further concerns.
If you are 40-50 years old expat looking for a wife then you are good to go because most of the girls on this website are looking for sugar daddy who can provide them some kind of financial security.
But but, if you are young guy between 25-30 years then you should stay far away from this website. Believe me, you'll lose your self-esteem and develop trust issues. They are not looking for a good looking and honest boyfriend, they are looking for a financier.
Yes its true that they will nicely chat with you and make you feel special, but believe me when you'll be feeling butterfly in your stocmach due to love emotions, its a sign that somekind of hospital/accident or financial issue is around the corner.
Pros:
- Get a virtual feeling of love/affection because you can't get it in your real life.
- If you have nothing to do, it's a great website to kill your time.
- if you have plenty of money and you are looking for a way to sepnd it, join the premium membership and spend on girls.
- If you are an expat in Thailand and looking for a wife, then go for it. You'll get a lovely young wife. Of course only until you have sufficient money in your bank account.
Cons:
- You'll develop the trust issues and become anxious(depends on the type of person you are)
- Even if you get your perfect match, don't get too emotional and be ready when the reality strikes you. (it can strike in several ways like sudden block, financial request, hospital bills, accidents etc.)
- You never know if the 20-year-old girl you are talking to, already have 2 kids.
- Their English speaking/understanding ability is so poor that you'll often have to use google translator(even for simple words and sentences)
- Loss of peace of mind is guaranteed.
I've been a paid member, on and off, for 8 years. For 3 of those years, I lived in Thailand. I've met about 30 Thai women through this website. Some great women, genuine, who wanted a committed relationship. Online, and in person, I met a few who immediately asked for money. I took screen shots of online conversations, and reported them. THAICUPID responded quickly, and usually informed me that the members had been blocked.
Hi Geoffrey,
Thank you for the positive feedback!
ThaiCupid is utterly useless. Consists primarily bots and scammers. Three hits out of thousands of fakes. One of those turned funny, so I blocked her, the other played shy, before finally deciding it was time her mother needed an operation. Sure honey.
That left me with exactly ONE contact. Thus far she's talking and behaving like a charming, kind person would. Zero fuzz regarding bills or hospital fees. Pity, she's not exactly my type, but we get along well, she's funny, and a real human being. Fair enough.
If you are serious about finding a decent; and honest; Thai wife, don't even think about wasting time and money on this site or anything else foo-bar-cupid. Instead, learn some basic Thai, get your butt over there, and stay a month -- preferably as far away from Bangkok, Phuket, etc, as possible.
Summary: This is a hoax! Fraud, if you prefer.

Regardless of the type of personality, shared interests, values, goals that you seek you will likely only waste time and money on any cupid media site.
I agree with other reviewers that the ThaiCupid leverages automated technology or "bots" that interact with paid and non-paid customers to either entice paid membership or are intended to keep paying members from walking away from the site or not renewing.
Fake profiles: there are many, there is usually an exchange of two or three emails, then the woman that expressed interest suddenly disappears, pay close attention to the similarities in the profiles that practice this hot and cold technique, there are many, the same favorite movies, same two or three word sentence in the "what they are looking for" section.
Another reviewer guess at a 10% to 90% real profile to fake profile ratio, I think it is lower, with the real profiles being somewhere around 5% or less. Ask yourself, what regulations apply to these site, who is policing their practices? No one, the people running the site manipulate their customers to maximize their profit.
Note how many profile pictures have an overexposed look to them or are modified in other ways to look differently than they appear on the legitimate website they are stolen from.
Find a legitimate site or travel to the country you are interested in meeting women from, that is what I am going to do. Don't waste your money on any cupid media site, they are dishonest and amoral.
I am currently on three of their sites and see the same practices used over and over again, I won't be back.

I find Thai women very attractive, but those are mostly not what i see on this site. Also, a very large percentage of the women here know no English. I love languages, but Thai is very difficult for speakers of Indo-European languages like English.
If you see a picture of a Thai girl with large breasts, assume it is a fake aimed at presumed Western male tastes. If you want women with large breasts, don't waste your time on Thai, or most any Asian website.
Answer: Yes, all dating site automatically renew, which is not good and no where they tell you that. As soon as you pay the bill for one month or 3 months go back to billing in your profile and trun off auto billing pay. Because even if you do not use the site after a month or whever you paid you will be charged.
