CRAZY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Where to begin? Have tried to deal with them a number of times and it always ends badly. Went to buy a ticket a few days ago and got to seat choice and they wanted either $84 or $164 PER SEAT for four seats!!!!!! On top of the ticket price. I got mad and looked elsewhere. Thought Id give them another try.....this time, over and over and over.....I choose a ticket to purchase, get down the last part and.....BOOM! Window comes up saying that ticket "sold out" so now you have to pay more. In the short span I was just on the site they managed to raise the ticket prices about $100.....this is total NONSENSE. I dont see how they have so many good reviews because they seem very scammy to me.

Review of OkCupid


Rated 1 out of 5 stars

Garbage.

Waste of time and effort. Scammers galore. Fake pics. I'd say that every cute asian woman on the site is fake. They lie about their location, usually claiming Beverly Hills. You ask to meet them and they refuse. You ask to have a video chat and they refuse. They are probably scammers from Nigeria using stolen pics. Online dating is a minefield, a heartbreaking, time wasting, money wasting nightmare.

Crazy crappy site

Where to begin? So many scammers and crazy people. And the site has a loony rule about age differences. You can't just contact whoever you want.
Then the icing on the cake is that they have women streaming and begging for money just to talk to them! It shocked me to the core. Asking for money just to chat! CRAZY!!!! I complained and they kicked me off. Good riddance. The site is crap.

Review of FilipinoCupid


Rated 1 out of 5 stars

A disappointment

A nightmare. Mostly scammers and fake profiles. The beautiful photos are always fakes stolen from Instagram or Pinterest or whatever. A quick Google image search and you can figure it out, and the moderators at Filipinocupid surely know this, so it makes you wonder why they don't remove the fakes. Sure, the photos of hot women can lure guys in to pay for the service, but then when they discover the fakes and scammers there is no reason to renew the service. Literally ALL of the gorgeous women are total fakes who will get you to go to Skype or Whatsapp and then ask for money. It's a shame that it has come to this. Online dating has been ruined by the professional scammers.

Review of Tinder


Rated 1 out of 5 stars

I tried it for a week

I tried it for a week. Major waste of time. I matched with a few fakes that tried to string me along for who knows what reason. One of them kept talking about crypto so I blocked before they asked for money. One pretended to be living close to me but refused to do video chat so I knew it was a catfish. Tinder really sucks.

I don't know about this site

I don't know about this site. I tried it out a few months ago and it didn't really work out. It was weird. The pretty women never seemed to pan out in terms of continuing conversations. I mean....you could get a VGL woman to chat once....but then they would just disappear totally. This made me think they were fakes from the get go. Hard to get women to go on camera. Lots of chubby unattractive women who are always available. I wonder of the VGL profiles are just there to get business. Initially I signed up because it seemed like there were a lot of very pretty women.....but like I said, they either didn't respond, or would respond one time with a bit of small talk and then ghost. So, I would see that four or five days had passed and I knew they were just gone. I doubt that they found a match that quickly. I think they were just fake model pics to begin with. I think there are some real profiles mixed in with the fakes. It's a lot of work to try to figure it out. I will mention that none of them asked for money outright, but one did keep reminding me that if I wanted to see her on camera that her phone needed to be repaired, which is a well know scam. Online dating is a minefield.
To sum it up, and this might sound harsh but.....the very attractive women on FC are mostly fakes, while the less attractive women are probably real. I suspect that the site itself plants the fake profiles of hot women to lure guys in, then eventually you figure it out.

Total scam

Total scam. Models pics. None of them will provide a phone number or email or agree to have a video chat.
Responses seem to be AI.....maybe the pics are also AI.
Total scam and I felt it right away. The girls are all too perfect looking.

A rotten company

A rotten company. They threw the package and broke the contents, refused to make it right. I will never use them again.
