POF.com Reviews

Frustrating site because although it's free, when they email you a potential match's profile name, you need to upgrade your account to see that person's profile. So the only thing I can do is not respond to someone who thinks I am a good match, but wait until someone actually sends me a real message. A lot of guys don't do that. Also, I think the site has a lot of imposters on it. Or, there are many guys who think they are Shakespeare. (Or can't write or spell at all!!)

I've used POF for a number of years and it's great that you get a lot of features for free but I've had my profile hacked and I get a lot of phony winks from phony ads. They claim to be my age, (late 50's) but look 20ish, they also have their cell phone text number superimposed over their photo and are never on the site for more than a week before they pull their ad.

Although POF is free, I paid the extra money so I could see who read my emails, as well as other benefits. I paid for 6-months. I immediately began corresponding with several women. Then I wasn't able to sign on anymore. I sent several emails telling POF of my issue but I never got a response back. I then googled "POF Complaints" and realized my account got hacked. I again wrote POF telling them my account got hacked and I wanted a refund. POF sends me a complete refund.

I was hacked on this sight by someone who change parts of my profile and deleted my photos. They signed me out and I couldn’t get back in. I was getting tons of responses from other members. I contacted PoF and was able to reset my password. I had to fix what she changed in my profile and reinsert my photos. I searched conversations she had with other members, found out her name and number and reported that to PoF. I think at this point she is not active in my account anymore.

When you don't go to bar or out anywhere to meet new people, online is the best way. But also be careful and have a plan before you meet someone. Have your best friend on standby in case things aren't going well. They can send you a text within 10 or 15 minutes and that can be your excuse for leaving. Always meet in a public place too. I have met a lot of very nice people and a few weird ones.

I found someone I was really interested in, deleted my account and it was hacked after I deleted it. I tried to change my password and enter my account but matter what one of 3 emails you have (personal, student, professional) none of them received an email to edit my password. RUINING MY CHANCE WITH SUCCESS FOR A RELATIONSHIP I ESTABLISHED.

Total scam site....so many scammers...and even when you report the profiles....POF does nothing to remove them....disgusting men that make inappropriate comments....I have asked numerous times to remove profiles...nothing is done.

I have been on this site a few time but my account eventually gets deleted every time for unknown reasons. 1st time they muted me for weeks but allowed men to send me messages? Why? The site allowed me to reply but my reply never appeared. No explanation that time. Eventually I deleted my account due to no explanation....I started a new account....POF deleted...no explanation. I waited 6 months. Started a new account. I was very careful with my responses and wording...no naughty talk or bad language....

I have actually used POF on and off for over 20 years, going back to when the site was completely free. It was never anything more than serviceable, but since it was free, you got what you paid for. Then about 18 months ago I returned to POF and created a new account because my old account went away when they became a pay site. I was on the site for about 9 months, then deactivated my account and left. I decided to try it once again so I reactivated my account, updated my information and my email and sent a payment for 8 months. I logged out, and downloaded the app for my phone. But when I tried to log back in, it rejected my login and instructed me to request a password reset. I requested the reset and waited...and waited...and waited. I requested the password reset 5 times. Nothing happened. I checked all my folders, spam, trash, everything. No email with password reset instructions.

This dating website Plenty of Fish is a scam. I haven't had the account a week and you have to pay to even see your matches? Customer service sucks. The website is hard to navigate and when you do get matches again why have to pay just to look at a loser profile? I will say now to everyone do a legit dating service if you want to treated as valued customer cause to my surprise plenty of fish has a lot of complaints so let this sink in before you decide to go on their website.
