Plenty of Fish (PoF) is absolutely full of fake profiles!

I know all the apps have them, but PoF seems to have more fake profiles than real ones. I paid for 3 months of the membership but I will never go back. Unbelievable!

Never pay for apps without testing out the free version. Online dating 101.

Never pay for free apps. The free version attracts the worst of the worst.

Try 123Date, I deleted Tinder and Bumble last year, this app seems the most normal to me and have higher overall quality or profiles (better educated, classier, more serious, etc.) I have the best match rate here.

Is it free?

POF is a burning, flaming trainwreck with victims lying all over the ground.

You better triple check your cancellation. They’re notorious for billing even after you’ve canceled.

If you think POF is bad, Mingle2 is worse by about 100% lol

Why are there so many gullible people on reddit who pay for dating sites? If you don't have any success on free sites, you aren't going to have any success on paid ones either. You won't magically have members of the opposite sex suddenly show interest in you just because you paid for it, that's not how it works.

Your comment has no relevance to the conversation, lol.

I'm on POF and I ain't paying for that crap. Hell no. I got 70+ people that liked me but I'm not that curious to see who.
