I have been a member of this site for about 9 months, when they decided to change it to a pay site to be able to access it. Made new profile and got banned the minute i entered chat room. Now they have my IP completely banned so cannot access the site at all. Since they say it is FREE they need to make it that way. Some people need to be banned from the site for illegal things and for offensive language in the chat rooms, but they are allowed to remain on this site, WHY? Because they are featured (paying) members. I have not met anybody from this site worth spending any of my time with, will not recommend this site to anyone and what few friends i did make have deleted their profiles also.
@Rebie Lopez Well Good luck and be real careful of who comes into view and try to get someone who is not over all the sites there ever was. Good luck because with this site, i did not have any.
@Bob Hei I agree with you because i had one chick to tell me someone ripped out of her money and she is stuck in Africa. So you do run into a bunch of nuts and when you detailed your profile, you are always getting someone totally different than you want or stay so far away that it's not going to happen. If i'm in Georgia and has picked out the region, why am i interested in someone in Arizona? Go Figure. Why would i want to pay $24.00 for one month when there are other sites for $24.99 for six months? Another thing if i'm looking for partners between ages 56-66 why send all these profiles of 22-49 to me?
Just trying this out 2 see what happens. all my friends are really bragging on it and they keep on saying i need 2 get out more so i will see what happens.
This is a poorly designed site. It seems impossible to sort or narrow your searches, so even in my late 60s I get maybe 1500 matches that are impossible to sort through. They send potential matches that seem to have nothing to do with one's own profile (including ages that seem totally inappropriate--often 20+ years younger than I), and there's no way to turn off this feature. They also reject profiles without explanation other than saying to check their rules, which are as vague as can be. When I have written to ask the problem, I get a boilerplate, useless answer, and when I complain, I get no follow-up. I have a feeling that they have an algorithm that looks for words (e.g., "sex") with no regard to context (e.g., discussing a prostatectomy) or perhaps political positions one may wish to include to help screen out certain people. I don't know, because they won't tell me. While on-line singles sites are generally of little use (to me, perhaps not to others), this is a particularly user-unfriendly one.
@Kelly LOL are you kidding me? these are people you contacted first, right? they gave you their IM to talk outside of the site. why would people you wrote want to scam you? how long have you been on the internet, anyway?
This site allows men who have been reported for inappropriate behaviour to remain on the site. One member darnell139 has solicited women for prostitution and tries to sell sex for money. I have had an encounter with him. He stole my credit card and money from my purse. I have reported him to the police as well as Singlesnet who allows him to remain on the site to victimize women so BEWARE.
This site is a real ripoff. I became a Featured Member on two different occasions. On both occasions, I had females from other countries, posing to be from local areas, trying to get me to send them money to come to the United States to be with me. I also met one individual, in person, that turned out to be a real psycho case. I am really disgusted. I have asked that my money be returned but, to date, have received no reply. I am going to the PA State Attorney General to file a formal complaint.
I signed up today, but was not given opportunity to add my personal info. Now when I try to establish an account, you refuse to accept my e-mail address. If it's truly in use by another member, something is wrong. I suspect you just have it because I signed up. Either straighten this up or cancel membership and refund any charge made.
@christina I just signed up today and it keeps doing the gateway timeout to me also its crazy I'll be searching and then for no reason it does it, then I can't get on again for hours. They really need to fix this, it only happens with singlesnet.com web site.
I have been a paid member, (when I was actively looking), and recently a non paying member again. I have always had a good experience with the site, and even started one decent relationship because of it. I met someone else in the normal way, we have been together for 6 months, but if things don't work out I will be more than happy to give them another try.
This site spams email accounts. It breaks laws and regulations. It violates privacy and peace. Singlesnet solicits married people for membership. I know this because they solicited me and I am married. They attempt to destroy marriages and families and leave children broken homes. Their married members, lying to potential legitimate mates, lure the unsuspecting into a disgusting unethical mess. Any dating site who actively seeks married people must be shunned and reported. Run. Don't trust them. Any business who must spam emails, use unethical advertising and business practices must be a real dud of a business. You can only get into trouble with people who resort to spam and unethical practices.
Don't be a moron @Kelly, giving out an IM is not a sure sign of a scam. It’s a way to get in contact with you because not everyone wants to pay for a membership. If you weren't retarded you might have enjoyed the site better.
@Joseph I started out just being a non paying member and had no problems until I became a paying member...Now I can't even get on the singlesnet site. I get a gateway time out message every time...I call and they tell me in 3 days I will be able to access my account again ....that's a lie.....I cannot log on to my account and no matter what singlesnet link I click on I get the same response....Gateway time out......they CLAIM it gets blocked to prevent scammers from getting into my account....I don't believe this either because I can log on to any other sites and have no trouble at all.....just with Singlesnet.....think someone should maybe investigate this site and find out what is really going on....are we being ripped off, scammed, or what by singles net......
Currently I am a paid subscriber and cannot access the site and it’s been 3 days. I have tried entering the site numerous times in the past and all I receive is a "site under construction" balloon. What’s the point again? Oh, to meet single people......oh yes I almost forgot. I think I was able to climb aboard a time or two.... In short, this site is a scam......stay away.
After joining to mail those I was interested in, the majority of responses were scams. They would reply to my letter saying to email them at another website or on IM. That is s sure sign of a scam. That is how they operate on the other personals sites that I have been within the past. Further proof of that, is getting email notices from profiles that either don’t exist, or disappear after they reply to you one time. A lot of time and energy wasted for nothing but scams. I don’t drink, but maybe the bars are still a better place to meet real people.
Met not only my soul mate, but my true twin soul two years ago. Couldn't have met someone more compatible! We are now planning our June 20 Summer Solstice wedding! A+++++
I have found this site has the weirdest spookiest profiles and people. Just my experience.
It is not user friendly. If you want to hide your profile for a while you can't. You have to resign and remove it. Then if you want to put another profile on you have to make a long-distance call during work hours. They say to put up a profile, and call them to put a new profile on, but it won’t let you, because it says there’s already a profile using that e-mail address. Tried to email them and they are down - it is a nightmare!
I have a friend who suggested that I go to this site. So I am curious to give it a try. If I can, maybe I find my true love and my lifetime partner to be.
