Stay away from OkCupid.
February 9, 2022

I rarely pay for dating sites, but because I had so many "likes", I thought I would take a chance. I paid for the one month package. Worst mistake giving those crooks my hard earned money! I had 54 "likes", and only 1 was from the U.S.! I'd rather stay single, than pay for another dating site.

Hello everyone! Please be aware of this OkCupid app. They are full of scammers and will only take your money. Thanks to my stars I was able to recover my funds back from them, they have stolen from me altogether over 60,000 USD from my bitcoin wallet after I agreed to an investment and bitcoin mining for profit. Later, they won't return my messages and calls. I had to follow through with a recommendation from a close friend of mine about Datrek Recovery that was of great assistance to get my money back from these online fraudsters.

Horrible Expieriance
February 1, 2022

Met someone on here who turned out to be a "NarcoPath" (both a narcissist and a psychopath) ended up meeting him in person and although it seemed we had a huge amount in common by the interests and questionnaire and through online chatting, I believe that it is too easy to lie/make things up and I have been in a violent abusive relationship ever since. Please be careful with online dating(or online friends as I was friends with him 4 years before meeting him), they need to do background checks on the people before allowing them onto the website. I think it would have made a major difference if I had known he had a DUI criminal record (substance abuse issue)(they should let you click something that removes all offenders). This person has literally made my life into a living hell including helped me be sex trafficked and date raped by another man and through his substance abuse issues and friends circle. I also think natal chart reading is a must and online dating should do astrology compatibility. He is a Aries Sun Sign Gemini Moon Sign and I am a Gemini/Taurus Cusp Sun Sign and a Cancer Moon sign. After research these signs are volatile Aries does not get along with Cancer(He belittles and breaks me as a fire sign and as I have a water sign I am literally boiled to death), this was a mistake that I live in regret of everyday for 6 years while he took everything from my family and refused to work or get off the streets or move out. The psychological abuse is not even of this world. I need strength and help to leave, he is literally a sadist.

I met my ex on okc almost 10 years ago and despite not working out in the end I'd say we had a really good run, leaving me with some cherished memories. It was the only dating site I had any real luck with, the questions, personality tests and forum kept me engaged and I had a decent number of dates prior to settling down with the last one. When I found myself single I signed back up to have another go and boy was I disappointed. The questions are still there but the personality tests and forum are gone, the match percentages make little sense, showing a high percentage even for people that have multiple dela breakers. Most of the women have answered only a handful of questions, not nearly enough to tell if they're a good match. You can't even search anymore by characteristics such as whether they have/want kids, smoke, etc, it's just another worthless swipe based Tinder clone. Not only that, they have a confusing system where you have to mutually "like" someone before they will receive the message you sent, and loads of people say in their profile "can't see likes" which of course means they don't understand how the system works and they will never get your messages. It's such a shame, it seems that Match Group has bought up all of the competition and got right to work running them into the ground.

Be careful, even if you sign up for only 1 month, they will continue to charge you unless you cancel. I recommend you cancel right away if you DO join. You still get to keep your membership for the remainder of the month, it just won't charge you when it's over. The paid version also isn't that great. You're better off just messaging random people than waiting to see who likes you. Messaging is free.

Found my soulmate
January 24, 2022

5 years ago, the sweetest soul messaged me through Okcupid and we have been together ever since. Okcupid is the only dating app where I was able to meet people who didn't want to just hook up. I was able to find someone genuine who actually wanted a relationship and we never would have met without the app. I would give this app 1000 stars if I could.

New Ownership has destroyed any gun or function. They want to charge_49.99 month, or your matches and messages disappear each day. Don't get it confused with tinder who the $__ men copied for quick profits. At least LGBTQ PEEPS are still welcome.

OKCupid has turned from a gem to a tu#d. It's not what it used to be several years ago. They took to misleading their customers. They are just pushing packages. Nothing is done to prevent scam so OkCupid accommodates multiple scammers and fakes. Anyway, I left it. It's not worth a cent because their women are not real. I recommend staying away from OkCupid. Basic membership gives you nothing. You have to pay for everything. But when you start paying you find out that all your likes and messages are entirely from scammers.

Woke trash everywhere
January 12, 2022

If you are a normal straight or gay person then this app is not for you, most of the people who use this app are fairytale genders and ok cupid encourages it as well, so yeah that's all that needs to be said really. Like many other apps before it, it used to be good but once everything started getting woke and lame well so did this app, it encourages make-believe genders and poly which is disgusting.

So to end if you are a normal straight or gay person then you will not find anything on this app for you, although if you have a mental illness then this app is perfect for you.

Most manipulative website and app
December 3, 2021

Hello Everyone,

One of the most manipulative website and app is Okcupid. Here is the reason why. I signed up and made sure the only people that can see my profile are in the 50 miles radios. In less than one day I got more than 150 likes and guess what I couldn't believe it. But I figured to give it a try. I upgraded, and the next thing I noticed is most of the likes i got were from far away countries. They were all fake profiles from India, Nigeria, Mexico and the list goes on. Well now you know, they will trick you to upgrade by making fake profiles from other countries to like you. Shame on you!

Liars on dates
November 30, 2021

I've been on okcupid for 3 months, and went on dates with 7 different men in the first month, but now my likes and messages all dried up. All of the men are liars, either about appearance, age, or intention. 3 were 5'2'' and lied about their height, adding 3 inches. One was more overweight and had a lot of acne, but was a decent guy. One tried to convince me to want children when I explicitly said I don't want kids; he liked single moms, so why didn't he just stick to the maternal types? 2 were older than their profile and had white hair for their "thirty" years of age. One started groping me and claimed he was giving me a message; he tried to get me to drink alcohol even though I don't drink. One showed up 1 hour late and never talked to me again.

Scammers
November 29, 2021

Almost every single woman I have been in contact with is a scammer looking for money. Regardless of whether I contact them first or vice versa, they ultimately are a scam. Hint: They immediately want to chat via phone or e-mail, and their site disappears once you are in contact. Grammar mistakes in the profile are common, similar to mistakes made by eastern European people. (Russian?). In two cases, they had the same e-mail handle with a different number. Numbers nearing 100? Means they are operating nearly 100 scams at a time, just through that handle. It's not that it isn't obvious that it's a scam, it's just tedious.

It's just been an utter waste of time, and to be honest, I don't trust the platform to make any investment in key features. So many obviously fake profiles and random one word messages to keep me engaged, pretty poor experience overall...

Okcupid used to be "Ok" before it changed its ways. It used to be that people could send anyone a message and they could send one back free of charge. It used to feature ads as their bread and butter. I guess back then it was a "startup" that used the "free" status as a come-on and then decided to slap a $15 monthly fee just to do what you used to do for free, which was freely message potential dates and see who actually "liked" you. Now, it's full of fake profiles and gold-digging scammers and forget about ever getting in touch with any potential matches, it's behind an exorbitant paywall with not guarantee that you'll get a mutual match. Oh, and you had better hold your tongue about your "preferences". If you prefer not to date single parents and mention this just to save yourself and other people time and just manage expectations, better not let the fascist "woke" admins hear - you'll immediately get the banhammer. It's ok to be trans, pansexual, trisexual, bisexual, asexual, demisexual or whatever - just never say what type of person you prefer NOT to date - that's just being "not inclusive" and therefore "evil" in their minds.

I am updating my review and downgrade to one star because I have now conclusively ascertained that the site uses robot accounts. (Females reappearing and matching back to you periodically). Beware then! The rest of my review below is still valid.

You get unlimited likes per day and unlimited communication with your matches. The user base is not great everywhere, so it might not work for you at all. In case of a limited (exhausted:-)) local user base, the app will propose to you prospects internationally. A feature that some will hate, others will love. Also, in Europe at least, the site is full of eastern European members claiming to reside elsewhere. I would not call those profiles fake per se, deceiving upon first impression perhaps.
