“Found my mate”

K J.
9/2/20

After rumbling through a few profiles, one stuck out with a question... Do I work for transit? Lol Talking to him was like having a twin sister, we clicked instantly with our personalities, interests in same things, etc. Sometimes you gotta be patient and the right one will find you.

“Fake Profiles”

Ann H.
10/26/24

Don't waste your time on this site. All these paid clients have the same old storyline. Save your money, their stories are so similar, their photos are fake, they lie to get the you paying for a subscription. Do your homework concerning this site and most men live hundreds of miles from your location.

Please beware of user MaCartney7 from PA and Brooklyn NY claims to be talented musician. He is liar uses drugs and womanizer. The site is a rip off too. Some of the men just want to jump in the bed. Disrespectful. Will want to know what kind of work you do but they dont work. Do not give out your information to him.

Verified purchase

This is the most fraudulent dating site! Please don't ever subscribe with your money. Their MO is to collect your money, deny you access and hoping that you do another subscription. I subscribed, setn a verification link, never got verified, and denied access to the site. I complained and they claimed I made an infraction, but they never returned my money, even after writing multiple times. They have done that to other people. I am stilll ooking for the right agency to report them to,

After my wife left me last year I've been trying to go out again, enjoying life as good as only possible, if you know what I mean. Been searching for a decent online dating site for black folks and came across BlackSingles4u, BlackPeopleMeet, BlackCupid, and BlackPlanet. Decided to create an account on all of them.

Both, BlackSingles4u and BlackPeopleMeet, are excellent. Been using both and can't be more happy. No, no new girl yet but getting there. Was not really happy using BlackCupid and BlackPlanet; don't know why though

Was successfully able to get a refund from BPM. I filed a fraud claim through my bank and my bank gave me a temporary credit while they investigated the matter. I was informed the money had been paid and the temporary credit is permanent.

Please be careful on this site. I met someone, became close after a year and a half until he tried to attack me. I turned him in to the police and found out the he uses dating sites to latch on to women in different states, rob their accounts, blackmail them, then abuse them. He spent a year in jail for physical abuse to my son. My son told me after he attacked me for the first time that this nut abused him. Wish I would've known then... he would've been six feet under. Please be careful as the site DOES NOT check credentialing as other paid sites do in some cases.

Seriously? You have site called "black people meet"?! If there was a "white people meet" site, other races would have a field day with the amount of racist responses it would receive! Not to mention they would automatically assume it had something to so with the KKK. This is so not right, especially considering from what I have read so far, this site is just taking people's money and doesn't even offer what they are promoting. If there was an option for zero-stars, that is what I would have chosen. If you are going to have a site like this, at least give what you offer and be politically correct about it and call it "African-American people meet". Black is a color, not a race.

The Platform itself is a Major Failure! From the method in which potential mates are presented, to the lack of user-friendly options in the application - it's Absolutely NOT worth investing in! Save your money and bypass this Disaster! It's a Joke that won't make you Laugh!

It's totally frustrating and ripoff! I purchased a 3 month subscription and had only 3 or 4 views and/or messages a day. However, as soon as my membership cancels, I begin receiving 20 to 30 views a day and about 40 messages in less than a week. Also, why have a category for messages and one for flirt if you're going to count all of your flirts as messages. I've always thought that was stupid.

While Blackpeoplemeet purpose is to unite people, it is also a scammers dream site. Please beware of 76lovemakerfun. He is a con artist who will not allow to visit him due to the fact he lives at his ex wife's house. He is a fake looking for older white women. Dates multiple women, lies to them and takes money and steals jewelry. He lives in Alabama.

A waist of time! Fake flirts, always trying to get me to boost my profile. Now after I cancelled my automatic renewal, it's all of a sudden telling me I have the wrong password. Right after it automatically hit me for a over priced renew. I bought in at 50% off. I did not authorize a $20 purchase. Now the worst is I've reset my password 3x with an email that said password reset successful. But it still won't let me in. Total rip off. The whole site and purpose of it is a rip off.

The user interface is AWFUL and nearly UNNAVIGABLE. Whoever was paid to develop this dating site that looks like it was developed circa 2001, needs to not quit their day job. Additionally, as a caucasian male who WAS potentially interested in dating an African American woman, i was deeply disappointed in the selection of women in my area. They were all either ugly, fat as hell, or both. Two thumbs down. I'm going back to Match.com to get my fleshy pencil wet.

Well, I'm disappointed with this site. I paid money to subscribe and I chose to cancel out of my own volition. Yet for their selfish ends they refuse to take my picture off their web site, I called their customer service and was put on hold for over an hour without anyone picking the phone. I paid money to feature and I personally cancelled, why don't you do what I want you to do cancel my subscription for gods sake. I was told the reason they are doing that is to use peoples pictures for marketing. But that is a britch of contract and it is most unfortunate, how you could treat people like that for your ultimate ends. I actually thought we are better than that.

Meet a man, went on one date and he tried to sleep with me. He was a really nice guy, so I gave him another chance before he asked me to co-sign for him, and asked me to buy him some Jordan shoes all in three weeks of knowing him. He rents his cars and tries using women into thinking that he is the best thing since sliced bread. After that 3 weeks, I deleted my profile, his phone number and never spoke to him again. I guess the feelings was mutual because he never called again after I told him I was not buying him anything.

This man has ruined my life. This site sucks royally and the quality of men is low. I have met several men and the ones I have met seem to be overly aggressive, ugly, fat and liars. Make sure you check your account when you cancel because they will try to be slick and charge you.

Tip for consumers:
Run Forest run!!!!

I elected a one-month subscription via clicking the appropriate radio button. I decided to pay through pay pal and noticed after completing the completing the transaction I was subscribed for 6 months, charged almost $70.00 and was scheduled for renewal. The Terms and conditions clearly protects the company and beats the consumer out of their hard earned money.

BE AWARE! If you "request remove automatic removal" - your credit card on fill will STILL be charged a renewal fee; before subscription expiration date, I might add! This has happened to me on more than one occasion. I then have to call for a refund.

Majority of these men are not what they appear to be. Their only looking for one thing and alot of them do have wives/girlfriends. This site is a waist of money and I don't recommend it to any female. This site doesn't even deserve a star.

The site sends you flirt alerts from men that did not send you the flirt in the first place. They do little marketing to attract new users, most of the men are broke, ugly, and are opportunists. You will receive alerts that there are new users in your area only to discover they live in another state. Whenever you are online it is displayed, which puts you in an awkward position by alerting everyone to your frequency online, it should be confidential, or at least vague like online this week, unless you requested online chat, wouldn't recommend it. I'll try online dating with other reputable sites.

I agree with many posts that I have read here. I met up with this one wholly insecure idiot on the site. I mean, this person told me that I "use too many 'big' words" and that I made him "feel stupid". He said that I needed to "dumb down" the conversation... It was as if every word that I uttered made him increasingly angry. His triggers were conversation about women's empowerment, college, and "big words". I believe that he may have suffered abuse in his childhood by the hands of a woman with a college degree and an expansive vocabulary. Perhaps she stuck a dictionary up his a$$ once, so he felt f*cked by knowledge. Literally... After this, I took the site for a joke!

I am a peace officer and was told that i have a criminal back ground and was cancelled from the site, i called the company and got nothing more than a recording telling me to email them and fill out a form. Obviously this is nothing more than someone who made a bootleg company that has a one man dog and pony show to fool people

I made my profile today and within an hour I had over 60 messages/flirts. And then it all made sense I got two different profile views from two different men from 2 different states with the same exact profile... word for word. I took a screenshot folks! I thought I was actually going to meet a decent black guy.

The app reviews and your email reviews never match. If you are a senior they will try to bill you for both. More importantly they have interested parties, email you multiple times saying nothing and repeating the same response over and o er.

Tip for consumers:
or. waste of time.

Don't waste your time with this computerized dating site. They actually sent your flirts, fake messages and everything else to make you think someone has contacted you. But when you actually message that person they will tell you they did not contact you. Keep your money scam! Site.

This site is useless. All you get is false interest messages with one sentence. Once replied to there is never a response. I think they fake the interests towards paying customers. I would never recommend this site.

I have not been able to access the site and the email to recover lost password does not work. I have contacted the company over 1 month without no response by phone or via email. And still continue to be charged I am turning them into the Better Business Bureau
