This site is filled with nothing but Nigerian Scam artist or web cam girls who try to get you to join some other site for the possibility of seeing them strip for you. The only women who ever responded to me turned out to be scam artists from Nigeria requesting that I send them money because they got stuck in some other country.
I was contacted by over 1000 women in a couple of weeks. I made a point of ignoring profiles that had photos of women in bikinis or underwear or were from teenagers (the majority). I was ruthless in weeding out potential scams, but discovered that even women whom I had independently confirmed to be genuine people were all eventually after money. Many asked for cash on 1st or 2nd contact - usually a relatively small amount to buy a webcam or for a "health check". Others were more clever and subtle - gaining my confidence over a couple of weeks, then hitting for a more substantial sum for some dire emergency. These included typhoon damage (I checked the weather charts - didn't touch her city), rabies injections (no bite visible on cam), kids asthma (couldn't tell me anything about required medication), parent's treatment for schistosomiasis (I pointed out that it costs $2 for one tablet, taken once a year), $1000+ costs for marriage annulment (for someone I had never met!!), expensive computer repairs, etc etc etc. I was even asked to pay for a jeepney registration - very creative. I agree with the guy above - go there and meet real people. Don't waste your time money and emotions on these sites, and do everybody a favour by referring other potential users to these reviews.
site says 14,000 members but never more than 200 online at any time, HMMMM and thats the entire US. the profiles are old and members do not exist. what a scam. I will do my best to cost them future members.
I kept getting friend requests, that when I responded the sender never answered. Its a total fraud. I did talk to one real lady, she had signed on another website and was shocked at the x-rated emails she was getting. Once I told her, she canceled her account
It's always nice to see an offer come in from a sweet and attractive gentleman. Winks are a waste of time because most of the guys that wink don't have money to even accept an offer.
Look at profiles that have " premium member" which makes sure that you're accepting an offer from someone that has taken the time to purchase credits. If you get offers from someone that hasn't, be prepared for your acceptance to sit there indefinitely.
There are many creeps on this site primarily ones with fake pictures 20 years old that are just looking to pay for sex. Try to avoid any men pushing 50 because they all offer great first date amounts (usually) but they tend to try and ask you to "come over" for the date. They waste credits because once they realize you're a normal girl and not one that is open to getting paid for sex, they stop responding to your messages for the date.
Stick with the younger guys, not only will you have more in common with them but they are not pushy like the older men are. Plus they have some great plans for dates that are so much fun!
Pros Guys 43 and below are happy to take you out on a nice date and enjoy your company.
Cons Guys 48 and over are there for prostitutes so don't accept offers from them.
Don't give out email because they use you as their pen pal and don't want to go out on a date or want you to forget it's a paid dating site. These types also push for sex or may ditch you on paying for the date because they can't get sex. You may even here " i'll pay you after you do **** with me". So it's wasted time with someone that you barely have anything in common with and you may view as a walking pedophile. Avoid at all costs.
I feel bad lumping all older men into this bunch but apparently before this site existed older men generally had to see hookers if they wanted to date someone out of their age range. Sadly they don't view this as an opportunity to show younger normal women their respectful decent sides.
1.Don't into cars with strangers
2.Let someone know where you will be at all times
3.Have 911 on speed dial if you feel you've met someone dangerous.
Don't let him walk you to your car, you may never make it to your driver's seat alive.
4.Don't believe the ages and pictures on the site, many guys that are older lie by about 10-20 years to get you to accept a lower offer and meet them.
5.Be wary of anyone that wants you to email off the site or call them. It's smart to provide a contact number but unnecessary discussions can prove to waste your time talking to someone that has no plans to take you out on a date.
I was smart enough to realize what a scam it was by all the stolen and repeated professional pictures and generic profiles, and was not going to pay for anything. Especially an "advanced search"
Email's never showed they were sent, and even the 100% Guarantee listedn ever actually told you how they "guaranteed" anything. No refund or such in the fine print.
Maybe one or two real users are snuck in here, and maybe an escort as well since they have "Compensation for time"
They need an actual escort if that is what people are looking for.
They try to ahrd to make it look professional. Any one can determine its full of shit.
No Star, I do not know that this applies to other areas or not. For local dating this site is worthless. There are few real people still using the site but lots of Zombies. You get more winks from Bosnia, Philippines and New York, which you do not want to acknowledge. You also get random messages generated by the site. I know this for a fact as one message I got was from an acquaintance that did not sent the message. Other messages you get and if you reply you never hear back they never appear online and basically drop of the face of the Earth. My advice, not worth a cent let alone the money they ask for.
Pros None
Cons Everything from Fake people and Zombies to generating messages to get you to buy.
Had very satisfactory experience of this site. Reasonable value for money and generally nice quality of members. Had 2 good connections and just one time-waster. I also liked the banter on their forum.:D
so like OMG!!! this guy said he would only fuck me for like $2,000! PA-LEASE cheap ass! this golden ticket is one of a kind! I dont douche and bleach my asshole for nothing less than $10,000!
i dont think these date sites are doing a very good job of screening some who put up a profile i have found some pictures of women being used by different people
Cons most of the women seem to be escorts some i have seen on escort web sites.
I have been on many dating sites over the years, but this one (pof) is the one I come back to now and then when I am not taking the greatest of interest in getting a woman for my purposes and don't want to spend money..
Of course, that's rather a false economy, when you consider that POF is full of time wasters and without doubt the worst quality of females you will ever see in the world of dating..
Talk about heads up their own backsides, they seem to suffer from the common affliction of women who spend much time on dating sites, they mistake the fact that they are being chased and contacted by many men for validation that they really are "special".. (Well, perhaps they are, special needs more like!)
Some of the profiles are so incredibly negative about men, it is no surprise that this is the words biggest dating site.. After all, the many women on here are unlikely to ever find anyone who would want to take them off this site..!
Pros Free, and a good way to learn how conceited and awful women can be (and usually are on here!)
Plenty of folk on
Cons Mostly time wasters and unpleasant women on here. Brings out the worst in women it seems. Very unlikely to get a date off here, and if you do, you will most likely wish you hadnt bothered!
it is free and indeed there are quite a few women. chances are most likely good given the fact that majority of these "quite a few" are also quite homely. ergo, yes and no...
I just received a text message from a woman who never texts me saying she sent me a message on skout. How is that possible when I've never even heard of it until this text message? Seems bogus to me
I don't believe many of the supposedly female profiles in that website are real, and probably even fewer if you're not in the US. As other people mention, as soon as you join you start being contacted by "hot women" who will usually try to get you to watch their webcam somewhere else (after paying to join whatever service their offering). I guess a good thing for those outside the US is that it's easier to spot the obviously fake profiles - they will claim to be from your country but the pictures will show a girl wearing an NFL jersey, for example, or the photo will show US-style power plugs in the background etc.
But, really, I don't think I found a single profile that I can honestly believe is real.
Pros Easy to spot the scammers.
Cons It's easy to spot them because it's kind of a target-rich environment.
So far - I can't seem to IM - ratio of members to people on line - less than 0.25 % - something isn't right about that ! I've sent over 20 greetings , member to member e-mails sent. Not ONE response ! Anyone else having issues like this. I even asked a few people who are obviously out of my range - meaning too far away for a meeting,etc... to just confirm they are receiving my greets or messages ... NOTHING ... very suspicious and I feel like I've been ripped off. All I get from website support is these things take time and sorry for your disappointment. I paid $10 and am wondering why I'm reading that the site is free ???? Big disconnect with reality in my opinion and I would not recommend this site !
I'm a decent looking guy, prob a 7 or 8 on 1-10 scale, but at 50 am in excellent shape. I average 40 to 50 views a week on OKC and have gotten at least a dozen dates in about 3 months with excellent, witty, beautiful, and intelligent woman. The site caters to all, and not once have I met up with or detected a scammer. After trying Match, POF, Zoosk, and a few other sites, this one ranks head and shoulders above the rest, especially when it comes to not having to deal with scammers. Guys and girls, if you've been doing this e-dating thing at all, you know what I mean when it comes to the scammers. With their unique match percentage rating system, Q&As (thousands!!) and tests, its also a fun site. By far the best free site. I would choose it over the half dozen pay sites I tried, including e-Harmony. Good luck!
Pros Match percentage, Q&As, Tests, search functions, fun! Large population, ability to edit anything, anytime.
Here we go....Bikerplanet seems to have website issues that cannot be resolved. I have called customer service so many times this month giving specific details to my problems , all to no avail.
I have been without use of the website since April 9th and today is April 27th, yet they are taking my money, right up front!
I joined speeddate March 2012 became a verified customer and used it maybe three to four times a week. After becoming a "verified" customer, they charged me, but now I am not able to login and view anyone nor anything. When I login it says "Loading SpeedDattes" and the rest of the page is shaded and it wonl let me click on anything. I say speeddate is a scam, because I called their customer service number 1-877-328-3006 and still have not received an answer. They are always taking time out to practice what they do. Which is ??? Do not subscribe to speeddate!
i made up two different emails addresses on this site....one for saying i lived in newcastle and one for devon area and got pop up messages from the same girls at the same time saying that they lived near me ,but to be ,, 300 to 400 miles apart they must move fast from devon in south west to north east
so do not go on this site join one that you have to date first to be safe and not get conned or scammed

citysex.com all fake
Review about CitySex.comjust a big wast of time and a big run around the site is just useless
Pros
there is no pros not even the cam shows
Cons

Positive experience and 2 dates

Pros

Review about WhatsYourPrice.comi had a date, we ended up getting a hotel i paid her the agree price, spent a whole night with her, had fun with her four times during the evening
it was a very good date until i had found out some money had gone missing from my wallet
so my advice is yes by all means do it, but make sure if you have any cash in the wallet make sure you put it somewhere else
Pros
you can cut to the chase if the girl is up for it
Cons
some girls on there mess you about.
some are dishonest
you are not going to find your life partner on that site
