Common concerns include a high prevalence of fake profiles, rudeness, and entitlement among users, particularly women, who are perceived as unrealistic in their dating expectations. Many reviews highlight poor customer service, including issues with account management and a lack of effective support. While some users acknowledge the site's potential for connecting singles, the overwhelming sentiment suggests that POF has declined in quality and user experience, leading many to seek alternatives.

Way too many men on here so the women who are 3 and get zero attention in real life become totally deluded on here and believe they are God's gift. It's laughable. The rest are either mentally ill or social misfits. All looking for Mr Perfect
Avoid
Unfilled profiles to obnxious rude bores and slow if any replies. Be sure to have a selection of pictures. You coukd have seriously the best profile a wide variety of skills and hobbies and the type of personality people fall in love with but if your pictures are not good quality people with ignore you so quick. Theres an endless choice so its difficult to stand out without it
Free app, you can purchase upgrades. I loved it when I was single, usually had 2-4 convos going at a time.
Basically this company what they do is once you open an account they close it. Then you have to open a new one. They do this to creat more and more accounts so the have "more subscribers" 3 times I open an account then when I tried to open it they claim that my password was incorrect and that they didn't have my email in their database. From the over *******+ members that they claim to have only ******* at the most are active and real.
Ill tell you about this sight I was on it off and on for Two years and their nothing but sexual predators psychos liars skanks and all they do is lie about what there about and what they do. Most men and women are married or have more than one partner and some I bet a lot have lots of STD s. This sight is no good and it's dangerous! And the people who run it won't do anything about what happens when you meet someone. They blocked me because I cursed them out and I snapped on them to. Someone needs to shut this sight down because their always elugal things that goes on on this sight that shouldn't be going on. The FBI and police needs to monitor this sight. Because women for sure have been raped killed and god knows what. When it comes to sights like this one it's a hot spot for sex offenders and rapist..
I HAVE JUST REGISTERED WITH POF AND SENT NUMEROUS EMAILS TO SUPPORT STAFF REGARDING VARIOUS QUESTIONS AND ABOUT 6 WERE NOT REPLIED.
I AM SERIOUSLY CONSIDERING AVOIDING THEM ALTOGETHER

I've spoken to all kinds of men on here and met up with quite a few. Lots lie about their height by adding a few inches, but that is probably true on all dating sites. Other than that, nobody was much different to their profile, so I can't complain. I paid for a while and don't recommend that as its not that easy to stop paying! However, I've done just as well without paying and I am now in my second decent relationship thanks to POF. Obviously hoping it's my last.
Somewho can help me get back into life and become me again so if you are a woman who feels the same way about themself
I have watched this site and been on and off for 5 yrs, and the SAME men on it for 5 yrs
( that ALL say they are looking for a relationship????) who do not even reply/answer or even have a conversation with you. I believe there are many fake profiles on here...I live in a town of 3800 people, there are guys on this site apparently from my town....hmmmm interesting that NO ONE I know including myself has ever seen them or knows who they are and they have been on pof for yrs in my town.....BS I call. I can tell for certain they do not exist and its always the most attractive of men, coincidentally. I am very attractive, have a great job and life and yet not one single date???? Complete waste of time.
I have has accounts on and off for years. But my last straw was when I was constantly being disrespected by "men" in various ways. One big one being, offering to talk on the phone versus TEXT and not one guy actually calling me! What the hell is that stupidity about?
I'm definitely not ugly and had over 100 messages in my inbox 24 hours after making this last account! Ladies, find another way to meet a REAL man. This site is beneath any self respecting young woman!
The site totally sucks, many half naked women on there, but when I put a pic of me in a muscle shirt... deleted. I see nothing but titties & $#*! and fake profiles on the site... so once again how is this a good site? I'll wait. Never again will I go to this trashy site. Need someone classy not trashy.
Ladies the site sucks let's anyone fave you men are bunch of alcoholics picks speak for them selves the married want a side chick can't be a man and meet most as aged ugly or look gay
They have the age search restricted so that you can't search for people that are below a certain age compared to you and the top of the age range is always your own no matter what you set it to. They are on a mission to not have random hookups. Look it up online. They know people will want refunds so in their 1-800 message they tell you what to do for a refund straight off the bat.
I have been on POF since late January and here it is now April and I have talked to over 300 men in these few short months... One turned into the relationship but problems in his life at the time ended us but if it had not been for t hy I would still be with him... There have been 10 men that I have had a serious conversation with and have gotten to kno them and I still tlk to a few today as friends... it's rare for men to ask me just for sex... Most the men that view men and then speak to me are legit and are interested and bc I have great communication skills we never run out of things to speak about... your supposed to be building a friendship and then a relationship... but most women on here end up thinking about just going full throttle with a guy they don't know and then bc they don't go out with them or quit tlkn then the women jump to conclusions and start bashing the site... These are real ppl on here... we are all looking for something some more then others but the point is you have to have patients bc nothing good or worthwhile comes easy...
I can meet many girls in a week, but are not so sexy, POF has not really good girls, many latin girls, some i can meet in Netherlands, but basic level.
Girls, beware of this catfish, goes by Kenneth Feagins, 32 - he will allure you with how we wants a relationship but will start on the sex talk every chance he gets. When you try to get him to change the topic he won't respond. He will give every excuse in the book to delay or not meet up when you clearly ask him too. Beware ladies he will only share his VOIP number *******026) with you which he will never pick up. Better be safe than sorry. If he tries to message you do not lead him and block him immediately!
I haven't met one non crazy person and has been a decent person they all seem to have major physiological personality problems or drug and drinking issuses. They seem fine at first then as soon as you try to be serious they want naked pictures or start talking about hooking up. I've also met people who seem like they really want to talk like a normal person then they block me because I'm not talking about sex. You can't be real with anyone on here don't waist your time if you want to find a honest good person.And I haven't found anywhere on this site that you can cancel your acount. I don't feel safe on this site at all as woman I feel like a good person surounded by a bunch horny, no personality, nut cases. I give this "dating" site 0 starts and I gave it a real chance but it's one huge disapointment.
Catfishing aside. I find that 80%+ of the woman that contact me are not real. If I get a "meet me" and like them back and weeks go by as an unread message or better yet not even viewed me to see if Im brad pitt I say fake. POF is bull$#*!. I paid for 3 months and will not renew. There isnt even an option to only view upgraded users. The site is full of tgirls and preops too calling themselves female utter bull$#*!. Screw you POF
Answer: Oh yes, they want you to upgrade and pay! But when you pay you will see these profiles who you liked or who liked you disappear. They were nothing but bait-and-switch. You gain nothing when you pay, it's the silliest way to spend money. Are you looking for hook up or relationship? I wanted a relationship and I was really frustrated by Pof. Eventually I found what I was looking for on https://j4l.com/402007 But I've lost nearly a year on Pof. Not to mention emotional drain and money!
Answer: I just deactivated my account. This site is a sewer. Do not pay anything for this site or any site. I searched for free on other site( even paid ones you can search for free) and I saw the same guys on most of the other sites as well. I'm gonna grow old alone unless luck steps in and maybe I'll meet my guy IRL.
Answer: Yes its possible
Answer: Delete AND contact the company. If you know who took your pictures be sure to include the name on the profile that your pictures were used on, so they can deal with that person. Once you have deleted your profile, everything is GONE. I have never had anybody use my pictures on any other sites. I'm no great beauty, that could be the reason, Still, once your profile is deleted, everything is gone.
Answer: You cannot do it from the mobile site. You need to use your search, example safari and look up pof desktop version and go to the help in the top left. It will walk you thru it, if I remember correctly. Good luck
Answer: First, write to POF and explain. Now, and I mean NOW call up your credit card company and tell them what happened. I am sure POF will not contact you. Make sure to use the word "unacceptable" when describing the consumer service to the CC company about POF. Keep all emails too. Please keep me posted. Thanks Ann B.
Answer: STAY AWAY FROM THIS SCAMMING SITE! Any good you hear from or about it... DUH ITS THE SCAMMERS THAT WORK FOR EM. I been booted so many times due to unpopularity cuz i wont date trash so i get booted they keep your money they are garbage
Answer: Fake doesn't really describe them... more like downright liars!
Answer: Golden rule #1: Do onto others as you would have them do unto you Golden rule #2: Anything that sounds to good to be true, is not. Golden rule #3: Fool me once, shame on you. Fool me twice, shame on me.
Answer: POF is not free at all, you have to upgrade; become a paying member to be able to do anything interesting.
