I have had a horrible experience with Singles of Faith also. No responses to emails, majority of the profiles incomplete which leads me to believe that many people were just browsing and not true members. I was very disappointed and requested a refund. Again I did not receive any responses from them. Instead I was denied access and they kept my money. Now 3 months later they charged my account again. I have not had any access to this website and they continue to charge me. My next step is to contact the Better Business Bureau and the Attorney General. This is unacceptable customer service for any business but especially one that claims to be Christian. Stay away from this site if you don't want to be Unequally Yoked!(N)
Pros NONE!!
Cons Nonexistent customer service, majority of profiles filled out by people just browsing and not actively using site, no responses to emails, waste of time and money...and money...and money (they keep charging your account).
Make sure if you don't want to renew your membership that you take your credit card info out. They have a automatic renewal policy, which is stated in their user agreement. Who reads those long boring things, anyway. My bad that I didn't. Anyway, I saw the charge on my card, cancelled the account immediately and contacted them for a refund. I was informed that they don't refund once you have been charged. Companies who have good customer service and are not scamming people, would give you a refund.
Someone here said he sent 50 interents to women on the site but no one replied to him. I think that happened because he is not an attractive man at all. That's not because of JC or women...
Many guys on JC post unattractive pictures. I'm not talking about you are not handsome or something. I mean some of them are not smiling at all in the pics or some pictures are taken in messy rooms. Nobody wants to see someone who doesn't smile and go to dirty rooms to see boys.
You should care more about profile pictures. They are important if you really want to get to know women!
I signed up, talked to a woman on line who claims she just wants to meet friends, I indicated that she probably was paid to be on the site and that the site is a rip off.
Next thing I am kicked off, money taken, no refund.
Really this site should be shut down, its totally fraudulent.
Summary if you want to get ripped off, join this site.
Like all dating sites, you have to take it with a pinch of salt.
It has decent functionality for those who choose to try it out before committing with a paid subscription. So you get a good indication of whether its worth it.
I personally don't get internet dating . As a man who's done alright 'offline' & has had very bad responses on several sites. I can only assume some of the following:
1)There's much more men to women (very likely)
2)Women (in your league) aren't bothered unless you're perfect
3)These women aren't available and just looking for attention
4)The men are all better looking then me/earn more/better banter and are SINGLE!
When I say 'bad response' I mean that i'm going for women in 'my league' but they're not interested in my online approach!
I get reponses from women who have very grainy pictures with missing stats. Or else older women! Women think its fine to omit their body type and weight, but always want a taller man!! (I'm 6ft btw)
I pretty much agree with all the comments above both male and female.
They are using auto generated emails for messaging and I suspect auto creation of profiles.
You think the clue would be in the name, but there are a few genuine poor souls who seem to be looking to love (rather than casual sex), presumably sucked in from a parallel singles site. God help them....
I am an Attractive Korean-American that have no problems meeting girls but I decided living in Arizona, there are not enough Korean girls to choose from. So I decided to expand my search. It is very obvious when you see pics that are professionally taken by a photographer and the girl is a model. Typically they have one or very few pics. Their profiles say absolutely nothing revealing about them. They all pretty much say the same thing: very short and concise. I feel it is a con to get people to sign up! I have sent message and even tried to chat live with the ones I found attractive (my standards are high) and none ever respond. However, they keep sending me they are interested me messages!
Pros None! Just pretty girls to look at that you can never get a hold of because they don't exist!
ive talked to people on speeddate there all from other city's i dont know if this is a real site. I wouldn't recommended it to anyone. A waste of 39.99

Every man I have spoken to claims to have a child who is terminally ill & the child's mother is dead!!! He then tells me that I must save his child by sending him money for an operation that will save the child's life! Without this operation, the child will die in a African third world country hospital. Then he claims that he loves me, & can't live without me! As soon as I send him money (which he promises to pay back with interest), he & his child will fly to me & we will live happily ever after in paradise!
Same crap, different day!
The last few days CS had had a troll on the forums spewing anti-gay and lesbian crap. Despite several member complaints that the threads violate Connecting Singles "no hate speech" rule the threads and the poster are not removed.
Sadly this is not a new thing. Some of the regular trolls delight in using names like faggot and dyke regularly in the threads.
Apparently in the opinion of Connecting Singles parent company some of us are alright to hate.
Perhaps if they would be more open about their own bigotries they could find their niche market and really succeed.
Pros You don't have to pay for the abuse.
Cons Middle school mentality, bigotry, ignorance and bad manners not only tolerated but encouraged by the moderators of the forums.
This is one of the biggest online dating scam websites on the market. I was a victim of money wiring fraud as a result of a multitude of lies and misrepresentations by the "so called" man I was dating online.rnrnI advise all women to be very careful about what you share about yourself, your life and your resources with anyone online and inform the police department and the internet crime bureau if you suspect that you are dealing with a conartist or outright criminal.rnrn:((
I joined the site, 45 year old woman, no photo. The site immediately gave me free membership til 2030 and also sent out an authomated email to all the men in my area - ice breaker - I did NOT ask for this. By the next morning I had nearly 100 messages in my inbox. And I had set a filter saying I did not want to hear from men over 50 - another 8 behind that filter. rnAn amazing response, men of 22 offering themselves to me. SO the woman can just say no to anyone she doesn't fancy. A bit overweight? Tacky beard? Smoker? Asking for blow jobs? Asking for sexy pix? Over 50? Forget it.rnBut in the end have been too scared to meet any of them, its the way the site has the pictures of cocks and asks you to specify your favourite position, it's just too sexy to be safe, Id be afraid that anyone I met wouldn't take 'No' for an answer.rnrnAlso, I think about half the men on the site are married men over 50, so really not appealing to anyone. rnrnForget it. rnrn
Pros Enormous response for women - loads of guys on there.rnMight be good entertainment on those long winters evening?
Cons The guys are not very attractive and it probably woudn't be safe to meet any.
These people are scamming so many of us. I say we get together and file class action lawsuit. They stole from me and lied to my my bank. They post a satisfaction guarantee but will not refund money if you are not satisfied. They give a bogus number to call for customer satisfaction feedback. These people are scammers to the umpth degree and need to be brought down. Please send me message if you have been scammed by these people. Together we can make it so they don't do it to other people. Send message with you story to [email protected]. Maybe we can't get our money back but we can't keep them from doing this to others. Please don't spam me!
Pros None
Cons Nothing good can come of this site. If you are not happy they will not refund your money. Their membership is confusing and misleading. Their customer service is extremely poor with no care as to whether you like the site or not. BEWARE!!!!!!!!!!
Steer away from this site. I've been on and off this site for 11 years now, I know it pretty well.
Some of the members are just looking to hook-up and have no interest whatsoever in a long term committment. Even though they will swear by Allah that they do.
Other members are scam artists who are either married, unemployed, or want your money.
The rest are either very loose in their Islam or rather are only Muslim by name OR they pretend to be ultra conservative. There's no happy medium. There are no normal people on this site.
In my 11 years I did not meet a single decent man.
Pros None.
Cons Scam artists, liars, people looking to just pass time, people who have no actual relation to Islam or Arab culture at all, people who are ultra conservative and hold weird beliefs, and people who are on their looking for sex. Yes, they are looking for sex on an ARAB site...and they find it. There are a ton of girls on there that portray porn like pictures and yet their profiles are not being removed.
i got scam. there's a person by the name of [email protected] or mark caitlin kurz trying to get money from people specially women on date sites..help not to let him get away with it ..
Cons there not makeing sure people are screen to be real..

Playerblock or Playerblock.com should be called the best webstite in the world if you're looking to savvve time. Had I checked oout my ex boyfriend (now he is) sooner, or used the monitoring system they have...which somehow is all free (I guess they got a grant or something bc it's all free), I would have saved myself so much heartache and 11,000 dollars and not cosigned on James' new truck.
Pros the best webstite in the world if you're looking to savvve time. Had I checked oout my ex boyfriend (now he is) sooner, or used the monitoring system they have...which somehow is all free
Cons Ummmm...Its hardd to see the truth sometimes....
I have been on IE a couple of times. I am a genuine woman looking for a lover. I have had email with lots of men and have met and had sex with some of them. The site has allowed me to have some wonderful experiences. I have found that some of the men are not interested in actually meeting up, the men look at my photos say they like me but when I say, well let's meet they seem incapable of actually comitting themselves ad organisng something. So to the men who complain I would say, ask for a date, that's what we want.
Pros Full of men
Easy to use
Cons Some of the men seem to be timewasters and don't want to meet up.
I was told that CS was the biggest troll haven on the net.
Naturally I had to look. I've seen worse but I have to admit the forums are troll central and the site does not evenly enforce the rules. Damned if I can tell why but there seems to be a certain bias that is "pleasing to the eyes" of the site owners.
If you like that sort of nasty squabbling by all means jump right into the fray. Otherwise you might want to try another dating site.
I also got scammed by SpeedDate.com these people are crooks and i just read everyones reviews and it all sounds similar. I do not remcommend that anyone joins. I signed up for a special that popped up for $12 and some change and it turned out to be a premium membership for $191.40. I also called them and they were very uncooperative. I am very frustrated i can't believe that these things happen!!!
