POF ignores user changes to age range search.

published

Returned to the site after a long absence and sought a different date range. Search ignores the date range I enter and keeps resetting itself. I have tried it on a laptop with a basic and an advanced search and in desperation, installed the app on my phone but still the same problem. Any change to age I make it ignore. Pretty useless to have a dating site where I cannot set the date range I am seeking. What a waste of time and effort. Just pleased I found this before paying any money to them. Do not waste your time with a product that ignores a critical seach data.

Worst site in the world.

published

Please people to not join or pay for this site, Plenty of scammers and fake profiles. The people who run this site don't give a damn and there is absolutely no help from staff.
All they care about is getting your money. There are other better sites out there. You have been warned!

Some real people but lots of fakes

published

Just so many scammers and fakes and what I think are probably lonely kids who just fool around on this site. The good looking men and women are almost certainly fake profiles. Some are money scammers, some are just catfish, using the site for entertainment.

This is crap. CAN live without it!

Absolute disgrace. Pay $ only to be hounded by scammers. i'm at a 12:1 ratio at the moment. I'd rather spend my money elsewhere.
P.O.F. should be re-titled as Plenty Of Frauds.. Or perhaps, Phishing Our Funds. Either way, I'm cancelling my subscription and using another apps. One that is soooooooo much better, and it begins with the letter Z.

Fake Profiles, feels unsafe

published

This is my 3rd day on POF.
I tried POF years ago, but don't remember it being this bad.

Most of the replies I have received have been from Escort girls & fake profiles.

Most of my time has been spent reporting these profiles to support & sending "Test" questions to those I'm interested in to see if they are real.

It's frustrating & disappointing to say the least and worst of all, it feels unsafe.

Every communication feels risky & im constantly concerned if I'm going to get hacked.

Rubbish

published

They say that you get what you pay for. PoF is littered with obviously fake accounts, sends notifications from non-existent accounts of people who "want to meet you", and does not enforce its stated rules for creating account profiles. There are plenty of real people on PoF, but sorting them from the fake rubbish is annoying. And the PoF matching algorithms are clearly not as discerning as other dating apps - I have found women on multiple apps that matched with me on PoF, but when I checked their profile on the other app I wondered what the hell PoF was matching on apart from gender, age, and location. Avoid if you can.

Hacked account,trolls and stupid support staff.

published

Avoid at all costs. Staff are either stupid or complicite in the scam. Account hacked and closed after 2 days. Dozens of trolls trying to get you to cam girl site. Staff say open new account and pay again. Yeah right as if. 8 months membership blown in 2 days. You will spend hours being trolled by dirty hooker skanks with fake pics.

Not all men are bad

published

Met an amazing guy on here and we are still together.

I also met my ex online and he's nothing but a con artist and personally think that all women should be aware of people like this.
They will lie and leave you in financial hardship to get what they want. Becareful who sweeps you off your feet, if it's too good to be true then he probably is and there's a lot of them on POF.

total waste of time & effort for the average guy

published

200 profiles interacted with, only managed 2 got email or phone contact details, 80% will ghost you after exchanging 2 messages, 1 in 20 are polite to say you not really what im looking for good luck fishing ect.
There is a general rule 4 to 1 men to women on dating sites and women in general follow 80/20 rule ie 80% of women only find 20% of men average or better, using basic maths average guy has 1% chance of getting a date.

Joining is free as are all off these single sites. When it actuall comes to meeting someone you have to pay. I have 10+ interested in me, i have to upgrade/join by payment. So nothing is free.

If I pay for a membership how will it show up on my company credit card

2 answers
TPT

Since you are misusing your company card, instead of your own card, this makes you a thief.
Your only asking this because you want to be able to try and get away with stealing the money, by trying to hide it in your company account as an expense. Personally, I hope your boss meets you down a dark alley and breaks your nose.

TPT
TPT

You never said the company was actually yours.

Why are you hiding this from YOUR DAUGHTER?????

Why is your daughter doing all your book work??????

I responded to your question in a way that seems totally appopriate. Your using --- "A company credit card" --- and your wanting to see if you can conceal the expenditure....... If your NOT worrried about it showing up on your companies accounts, why are you asking this question? e.g. You want to see if it can be concealed.

That rings alarm bells as corporate / white collar theft.

And now your into KEEPING SECRETS from your daughter, who also does your books, you say.

Why would anyone do such a thing? That is suspect / wierd.

What you say might be true, but the more you open your trap, the more reasons there appear to be, to not trust you at all.

I hear that type of garbage from my crack / meth head neighbours, who are also into dealing in drugs, stolen credit cards, and robbing peoples houses, cars and business's.

Fast talking "Instant answers to everything and honesty about nothing".

And the way you phrased that first question, it was a dishonest kind of a question.

And since your the one who wanted to spend time AND money on the site, with ~300 reviewers out of 324 reviewers, saying it's a BAD place to deal with, why are you not asking the people who run the site or paying attention to the reviewers who are almost wholly, saying it's bad.

This defiency also shows a "rocks in the head" crystal meth mentality.

You need to ask much more insightful questions. Open the email as a plain text email and go sifting through the code for all the markers for a genuine or fake email. You need to use your brain and to do some hard thinking and research for a change.
