This is pathetic that these obviously bad writers come on here and try to sound like a normal person giving good ratings, first of all who even talks in manner you 5 star givers are speaking.... and I just filled out a profile for it and it says there's a free silver and gold but it doesn't let you continue unless you submit a credit card... yea no thank you, I hope there's a lawsuit of some sort brought up against gk2gk.

This site is a complete joke. Their "anti-spam" screening isn't really anti-spam. If you put in anything on your profile about a Facebook, Twitter, MySpace, etc address, the website rejects it and removes it. Sure, you could count it as "a way to protect people" HA! More like a way to protect your wallets. They know if people were allowed to throw on Facebook urls, then no one would need to buy a subscription because people would just get in contact via those other networks.
This site is laughable. Sure, two free users share a link, but one of them has to go Gold in order to actually contact the other? And what if nothing happens with that? You essentially end up wasting 30+ bucks. Rework your membership fees, throw in more ads for more revenue, whatever, but as of right now, GK2GK is just plain awful.

At first I was really stoked that a website like this existed, I went ahead and subscribed for a month. There was like 10-20 girls near me. I messaged, sent message after message - I didn't hear back from almost anyone and most profiles hadn't been logged in over a month. I couldn't see profile login date data without being a subscribed member.
I have better luck on myyearbook than this site. Shame on gk2gk, if their gona offer a tiny userbase they should offer lower prices.

This site is a con. I'm in the UK, and all members in the UK must just sign up and forget their accounts, because every member profile says "online in last 1-6 months". Why would anyone pay to join a site where the members never log in? It also seems to want to tell me 2matches" are 4,000 miles away in the US? What about finding me local geek goddesses???
I found this review site through Google. Spencer Koppel, quit trying to cover your ass with your one-post damage limitation crap and fake nicknames, we know who you are, so quit while you're not ahead. There's too many sites that are utter fake like this that prey on innocent single guys and/or people just looking for friends.
Geek 2 Geek
Every time i signup with that site i find my account is deleted the next day. What is happening? I didn't post anything that's against the rules. May be my pic was too ugly? I don't think writing about myself that I'm a nice guy is bad. I had hope for the site… but they failed me.

Geek 2 Geek fraudulently charged my credit card claiming I signed up for auto draft when I did not. Now they are being jerks about the refund.
Geek 2 Geek
@Ricky1990 That has to be the most pathetic attempt for the site to reclaim itself. Seriously, "Yoyoyo". Who actually talks like that these days? In fact, who would take someone who talks like that seriously? The gk2gk site sucks and apparently, so does its public relations department or whatever monkeys they deploy to pathetically clean up their rep, which of course is in vain.
Geek 2 Geek
I was hoping this site would be "different". Alas, they do not tell you there is monthly fee until after you fill out your profile, even though it says "free".
Geek 2 Geek
The previous comments are correct. This website makes it easy to sign up, but difficult to cancel, so that your credit card continues to be charged.
Geek 2 Geek
I agree. There were so many fake profiles. The site says it has over 200,000 members. I think they have a very busy Bot creating new members or some Indian data entry on the payroll. I am on braniac and sweetongeeks as well. I like the Facebook style tools sweetongeeks as I've made some friends and haven't found a fake profile yet. It's 5$ a month to communicate with other people but at least it's up front about it. I also am on POfish and keep getting spam emails from Nigerian princesses. I'm engaged to one now and will be sending her my bank account number. :P
Geek 2 Geek
Geek 2 Geek takes advantage of the geek community. They have a sneaky auto re-enrol policy, and refuse to refund for their crappy service. Many of the accounts are hacked, or filler, and if you are an older geek, GO Elsewhere. There are few bios over 27. Their BBB account has been cancelled, and their matching is ludicrous at best. Avoid them and tell others. They only want your CC info, and you would be better off looking for free services.
Geek 2 Geek
@Knightswhosay Same story different site, all they want is your CC# and they'll SCREW you and sell ur CC# to other companies. Wait till you look at your online banking transactions ! Muwa, HAHAHAHA! IF UR LUKY UR BANK WILL REFUND 1 CHARGE the rest UR SCREWED! (The least I can give is 1 star) The peeps are real the sites CRAP!

Don Brooks, or whoever you are, you should be sued. For fraud, for deceitful marketing and if being a scumbag was a crime you'd get life without parole. I got 2-3 spambots from this site emailing me each day. For reporting them (and demanding a refund), my account was terminated. Mind you, the spambot accounts were never removed. If people could sue Match.com for fraud why is this guy still in business? For the record, any members (former or otherwise) who'd like to complain, the domain owner's phone/address/email info:

Well I signed up for a "free" account. Thankfully I have not given a CC and will not after reading the reviews here. BTW I did finally get my first "hello" from a female. Surprise..Surprise.. It was some poorly written msg from someone reportedly in NC.
"hi!! you look interesting!! maybe we can try know each other? give me your mail or you can write on my mail shutovola at yahoo dot com i'm rarely online, but i want know you :)"

I made the mistake of signing up for this service. There is no one to talk to and they don't respond to customer service requests. I called my bank and they gave me this number to call regarding the charges. 312-661-0102 He said there are no refunds but the terms and conditions talk about pro-rating the refunds. My bank said to call the police which I will because this site does offers social networking yet refuses to deliver. I hope people call this guy and give him a piece of our minds as this is the worst experience i ever had buying something online.
