Thank you for contacting us. Roommates.com is not a fake website. We have assisted countless people in finding roommates. We are a bulletin board self-service website so we cannot guarantee the members posting are legitimate or that they will contact, but we do our best to weed out the duds.

Obviously we would love to see everyone who uses Roommates.com be successful in their search for a roommate. However, we do realize that is not always the case as the process of finding a roommate can be difficult.

Finding the perfect roomie can be a tough game, and often takes some time. We recommend the tips below to help you find the best roomie in the least amount of time if you want to give us another try!

-Put as much detail into your profile as possible. This will make sure that the matches you receive are the most compatible. Also, don't forget pics! Profiles with good pictures tend to get more views and messages.
-Use the "Search" option to find additional matches that are a little broader, but might be a good fit as well.
-Message all of your matches! Getting in touch with as many good matches as possible is hands-down the best way to find a roomie quickly as they will be notified whenever a message lands in their inbox.
-Once you notice that you have some messages in your inbox, consider becoming a VIP member so you can unlock what potential matches are sending.
