POF.com Reviews

POF was once a trusted and wonderful site. In recent years, however the site has become home to plenty of fake and spam accounts. As quickly as you report them, the fakes return fast. POF takes no preventative action whatsoever against these fake accounts. In addition, I was issued a warning for being a "false reporter" of fake accounts when all of my reports were justified.

I agree with everyone who gave it 1 star. The 5 stars must be fake. I can't judge or comment on the people on it. That is out of anyone's control. BUT POF itself has more roadblocks than any other dating site. To name a few... VERY gender discriminatory. Woman can message as many men as they want to all day and night. Men are allowed ONE (1) per 24 hours. You would think they would want you to be on the site as long as possible. But it's one nice message and poof. That's it for the day.

After being on Plenty of Fish for a month or so, I finally paid for 1 month yesterday. The site said I had 130 likes and views, but I couldn't see any until I paid. Of the 40 plus who "liked" me, about 25% were non existing accounts. Even if the like was only a couple of hours old, when I clicked on the person, the account was no longer available. These likes were usually from pretty or desirable women. I think POF uses people whose job it is to send out multiple likes. In that way, we pay just to see all these fake accounts.

I upgraded, complete waste of money, they don't give a monthly option so you have to pay up front minimum $60. Total waste, and it's weird how say if you're 60 and you want to search for younger women, they don't allow it, it cuts you off at like 45 minimum. Um, what if someone older dates younger, or younger dates older? If they are of age, they should have that right, especially if you pay money.... I can't say everything else I'd like to say, but just trust me, go hit the bars, casinos, grocery store, gas station, co workers, this site ain't it. Save your money fellas, I wasted mine.

I have had 2 POF accounts and both times I've had scammers. The story is the same. They come from Ottawa but they are in the military or oil rigs. They insist on download Whatsapp app or Google. Chat. The profile doesn't compare to their story. They put on fake charm. They insist you stay online. It's creepy but if I can figure it out security should be able to.

A funny thing happened when I was trying to login and pay POF.com for a Discount Deal on a One-Year Subscription!!! My login name & password, saved in my username/password software: FAILED! I tried to type it in directly, and that FAILED! I wrote them three times, they NEVER RESPONDED. My Conclusion: do NOT T-R-U-S-T POF.com!!!

The site constantly sends notifications that people are interested in you and then you when you click on them, it says, "Sorry you can't view this person because their preferences are not for you. Find someone else"...lol.

I've been through many dating platforms over the years and POF is honestly the biggest headache-inducing service that I've used. I've been on their platform on 2 different occasions with little-to-no differing experiences. I spent almost 2 1/2 years on there from October 2018 to February 2021 and all I found were either bot accounts or dead silence. I returned to the service this past April and out of all of the accounts that I've had conversations with, only TWO of them were real people. This service is littered with bot accounts and I get contacted by at least one per day.

Dangerous app. Full of scammers/potential kidnappers. No quality control or verification at all. This app is full of bot accounts and catfishers. They all immediately ask to move to Snapchat and then they try to lure you in with either a relationship (this is a dating app, after all) or a sugar daddy/baby type setup. They all inevitably fail to send a picture of themselves with a simple hand gesture, such as this one.

Dishonest company! I did not renew subscription but debited it from my bank account. I received an email October/2022 saying that I would receive the refund in 5 days and so far I have not received it and they do not respond to my email.
