AM is still #1 affair site. Huge database of members, very well established brand. There are few cons though: - High price - Recent security breach - You have to pay to have your personal data vanished However, I still regularly use it (and if you know how to treat housewives, you'll get to the 4th base), but to double, or even triple up my chances, I use another great affair website recommended by lots of other guys here: Nostringsaffair.com. Happy hunting!
I was contacted by 10 women using Ashley Madison and all 10 were "romance scammers". Some waited 5 minutes to start asking for money some waited a few days but they all were scammers. The site is not worth your time or bucks!
The worst site ever. Most of the profiles are automated and fake women respond until you try to meet them. Don't waste your money!
I honestly did not find any real looking profile in my area. Not sure how anyone was able to arrange an affair on this site.
Basically being a paid member for a year I have found about 90 % of female profiles are not genuine. Save your money
I put up my profile, bought my starter tokens and sent winks, messages and photos. I'm 60 and in great trim shape. I'm educated, traveled, "moneyed" and have lots of interests. I got VERY, VERY few responses. Most responses were canned comments suggesting I send a message (when I already had)! Of course sending messages cost yet more money. I was so frustrated, I created a fake 60 yo female profile, with no pictures, 150 pounds, "undecided" position, and no other specifics. I posted this fake profile. To my surprise, my fake profile git dozens if winks, messages and photos per week. Every time I logged on (in her name) shed gey bombarded with a deluge of winks, messages, photos and nude shots! Thos gives you some idea of the male to female ratio in the Philadelphia region. I'd have to say that based on my (multiple) experiments, the "AshleyMsdison Male/Female ratio is worse than 10:1. He'll, I'd rather spend the money on a very attractive professional escort than waste my time with the AM crap!
Also, one woman who I did actually meet told me that she got do many messages, photos etc, she couldn't go through them all!
AshleyMadison us a rip-off for guys! For women that are "giving it away" on AdhleyMadison, they can afford to be VERY, VERY, BERY selective!
Another comment, so many if the women are so over weight, they make my wife look good!
Don't of it! It's a rip-off!
Ok so when you buy some credits, which are wicked expensive the introductory level costs about $3 a pop to contact someone. Women don't need to buy any obviously men do all the contacting. For some reason AM has decided to make bogus bots and profiles wherein you get connections requests, collect emails, winks etc, constantly when you first sign up from young women with beautiful pictures. Bogus of course, but stupidly obvious as well and you'd have to be an idiot to fall for them. These lessen after a while when you don't fall for them. When you contact women in your area almost all of them will have no picture or have one hidden. There are real women on here, mostly middle aged women not getting any from their husbands. So if you pay the $59 you have 20 shots at contacting someone. Be warned however if your credits go to zero you can no longer communicate with anyone so really you have 19. Ok all this being said I have meet 2 women on here in the real world and one of them I've had a nice time with. The women on here who are real are looking for passion and romance that's missing from their lives, whereas most of the men seem to be wanting just sex. Understandable but there is a mid-ground. If you want my advice don't send naked pictures of yourself via AM, wait till your talking to the woman off of AM and only if she wants to see them, that doesn't work on here at all with most of the real women. So bottom line, expensive, they try to trick you into using credits with bogus profiles and requests, but... there are also a good number of lonely women on here if you take the time to suss them out. Also watch carefully when you sign up that you don't leave the default settings on for them to automatically top off your credits and charge extra for mobile devices. It would be nice if they were more honest they really don't need to try the trickery they'd do better without it, but I guess it is what it is. Women who contact you are almost certainly bogus.
Ashley Madison, nostringsaffair.com and tinder. Those are the only places you'll get laid if your married and open about it online.
I personally can attest that this site is nothing but BS, if you want to really hookup then go to XratedSingles.com
Simply amazing how I had so many women messaging me but then when I purchased some credits, they all went away...?!
Many computer generated messages. Sure some real profiles at least but most of them don't seem to be real.
This is the worst dating site there is you have to buy these expensive credits talk its pure bull$#*!!
Here's my experience using AshleyMadison.com: I can't say if it's a scam or not, with the employee-posted profiles you find on sites like xxxmatch.com, but here's what I've found after using the site for a couple months:
--They have HUGE turnover on the site, at least for women. I've noted many New members I've added to my Favorites who then don't return to the site ever.
--I've gotten only a 50% rate of Priority mails being confirmed Opened. That means half the mail I sent was never even opened, according to the site itself. No replies to any of the ones opened, but maybe my pitch was off!
--I've communicated with a few women on the site after getting a nudge from them (added to their Favorites), but no successful hook-up yet. Profiles with pictures get the best response.
--The women I've talked to (and a couple honest profiles I saw) indicate that women on the site get a LOT of email from men. I've heard rumors of successful hook-ups, and some of the reviews seem to indicate as much as well, but it hasn't happened for me yet!
--I honestly listed my age at 47 and numbers indicate a more common cut-off for women searching for an affair is 45. (I don't mind, I look 40.)
Overall I'd say if you're gonna try the site go for their Money-Back deal. It's the most expensive membership, but if you follow the rules of the deal (you have to send like 18 emails in two weeks or something like that), the numbers should work against the company. A lot of the emails you send will never even be opened. Just keep track of it.
I cannot vouch for the company giving the refunds they claim to, this is just my experience with the site. Had a couple fish on the line but nothing landed yet! Questionable ROI.
My experience with AM. This website knows it has prostitutes working the site and does nothing about it.,.,...
This is the most horrible, offending and disgusting website I've ever seen! Please stay away from this site!
I have hooked up 3 times. You. Have to be patient and smart. Most men are neither. It costs a bit, not a fortune though.
Above average. Better than some. But not as good as nostringsaffair.com + a few others. 7/10 IMHO:-)
Only obese, repulsive middle age desperate men on this site. But what do you expect? Loser men even if site is free for women.
On 1s Day and 20 Trolls messaged me with the same message. Computer Generated to rack up my charges? Scam in my opinion! Save you $$$$
Tip for consumers:
That the site is loaded with trolls trying to have you email them with yur tel #
Wish I had researched the review about Ashley Madison before signing up. The site is a total ripoff. Don't waste your time or money.
Tip for consumers:
My ratings may not show up because all five need to be a 0 or in my case 'Not Applicable'. Don't waste your time and money. There are a lot of other resources out there.
Fake spent way to much money there should've just sticked coworkers and their wife's. Most of the women on there are cam girls or hired actresses.
Just another site to ripp off lonely men. I spent a few hundred dollars and did not even get a phone number.
This site is down more than it is up. Their IT people must idiots and the reliability of the info is sketchy at best. I'd look somewhere else.
Mainly fake / zombie female profiles or women paid to entice men to contact them (for which men pay $$$). Some females are escorts, and many others are just there to tease. Met (and had sex with) one genuine woman from >60 messages (by a complete fluke, although she was 2" taller [which meant that she was 6' tall rather than the 5'10" that I was expecting] and 5 years older than stated on her profile!). Even with the fake female profiles, profiles of actual men must outnumber profiles of women (fake, zombie or otherwise) by ten to one or similar.
As with other sites, lots of women seemingly just want to exchange adult chat with men without ever meeting them.
There also seem to be a number of scammers using the site as periodically I would receive messages from people puporting to be genuine users attempting to encourage me to sign up and register with alternative sites. As somebody else has mentioned, profiles that look too good to be true always are.
Update: I have continued using the site until my credits ran out. Wow. The last woman that I almost met arranged to meet me, asked that we should both turn off our profiles (I obliged), but then in one of the weekly emails showing photos of new members, I see her profile photo with a different username. Probably pretty obvious with hindsight, but it seems that some women using affairs sites cheat not only on their husband but also on guys that they are having affairs with. I later discovered that this person actually had three profiles. It seems to be common for women to have multiple profiles as they cost nothing for women to set up. So guys, be prepared to share, even if your lover will never admit it.
Tip for consumers:
If you are a man then steer clear, as the site seems to be overwhelmed with men. If you are a woman then this might be for you as you will be inundated with hundreds of messages.
Note to reviewer "Joe B" who says that it is free to contact women if they contact you first: this is not true. Presumably you have paid the extra monthly charge for "member initiated contact" which allows standard members (i.e. women, who pay nothing anyway) to contact you without the message being "collect".
Gain trust and grow your business with customer reviews.
Meet bored men & lonely housewives. Define your experience, and live life to the fullest! Life is short. Have an affair.?
