FilipinoCupid

Most of these women are dirt poor and will do anything to get out of that country and marry an American man to get citizenship here and a better life. The woman I met was extorting money from me to entertain her family from the moment I got there. Her home was so bad I made us stay in a hotel. I came there to meet her and spend my hard earned money on us, not her whole poor family. I had many arguments with her while there. Within several months after getting home I decided to get rid of her. Don't let their quiet demeanor fool you. They can be just as nasty as an American woman. I'm not saying all of them are like that, I only got close with one. But it was a waste of time and about $10,000 lost for one week of pleasure and pain. If they are so in love with you, have them apply for a work Visa to the U.S., and get them here on that company's money, not yours. You will have to pay over $5,000 in service and government fees to get them here and wait over a year and a half. Better to find a Mexican who just walked over the boarder.

I used FilipinoCupid from 2012 to 2014 and was a paying member. One of the features was the keyword search. It made it very easy to find other members with the same hobbies and interests as you could type in a very specific word or term and then see every profile with that word or term in it. I met my ex-gf this way by using the keyword search feature and we had a great relationship for 8 years. Now in 2024 I'm back on FilipinoCupid but there is no keyword search feature. Why would they get rid of this and feature? There's no reason to get rid of it. I mean, I'm not a website expert, but how hard would it be to keep the keyword search feature? What harm would keeping this feature cause? Some of their competitor sites such as DateInAsia has a keyword search or hashtag search feature. FilipinoCupid made a real mistake when they removed the keyword search feature.

You can use Google lens to find real owner of the photos. Here are some of fake profiles I reported to FilipinoCupid, but no action from them. I believe FC just simply don't care about fake profiles, as long as they have many men paying for the monthly subscription.

Seriously, 100's of contacts all wanting "serious long term relationship" then they all want money! Some try to lure you onto other premium sites, $28 to receive their video calls. I'm positive they get commission from these sites. Not a single contact so far has been real. Watch out for Skype requests, lol I didn't know it still existed. You will hear every possible sob story going, medical, food, pawned her guitar, you name it you will hear it. Save yourself the money and don't bother.

Lots of fakes, lots of scammers, Filipino Cupid slow/negligent in removing profiles that are reported as fake. Perhaps it's to get subscription from men who think the girls are real. To be fair, I have met several women who are genuine, but I would say over 90% are looking for money. Beware

With this site you can expect the following scenarios;
1. Fake photos that are stolen from the instagramers.
2. once you started messaging a common request is ' I dont use this site much, can we message using email?' Then on the first email exchange you receive some additional photos and the girl asks you 'Can you join this www.xxx.com site where you can see more photos of me'. Of course those sites require you to pay.
3. I dont have a smart phone. So cant do video calls. This is because their photos are fake.
4. My mum/dad is sick - and all indications are that they dont have money. Of course I am happy to help but once I get to know you, not from day 1

There are genuine girls but most are fake - so be warned!

A lot of scammers here! Most women they asked you to download app like Skype and google chat then ask u to signed up to another website that offer adult services. Probably less than 1% is only looking for dating.

I tested 25 profiles in total. Every one was a scam trying to trick me into memberships to access their profile. Stay away. Don't trust any of the 5 star ratings. Check out several sites before you spend a dollar for the membership.

Most of the profiles who contacted me in 4 days are either fake or scams.
I start the conversation stating exactly that and they stop communicating... Is the a trustworthy international dating website?

First never, never send money to anyone you haven't met in person. What I have done is use the free feature to gather possible profiles.
Then right before you're ready to visit pay for one month only. Contact them and weed out the scammers. Set up meetings and have fun. Be smart about it.

Many women here are not real. It's either their pics are stolen and being used by a con artist from africa or elsewhere, or they just want to scam themselves. I said many not all of them. So my verdict is... filipinocupid's subscription is too expensive to gamble for this risk.

Signed up and the same day they had free one hour platinum membership benefits. Talked with 3 girls got their info on skype. Video chat with all three and they were true to their profile. All three are very poor. I really liked 2 out of three. We have been talking on skype. One has 6 years old kid and other has 5! Months old kid. They both want to meet me. So I am going there for a month and stay with my cousin. I am gonna meet both of them for 2 weeks each. Will decide after that. I told both to not ask for money right on first day. They didn't. It's been 6 months. Will update to let you all know what happened next.

I was a paid member, they changed my birth date and didn't allow me to correct it unless I send them a copy of my passport, driver license or national I.D. (When I signed up, there was not such a requirement). There are a lot of girls that they contact you and want to sell their nude pictures, offer an online sex show or beg for money. Most of the pictures you see are many years old and when you see the women online they don't look like their pictures at all.
Had a real bad experience with this company. Even one star is too much!

On or about 03/13/15, Filipino Cupid suspended my paid membership without telling me why - no message on their website, no email sent to me. They have not responded to my emails.

I will notify my credit card company and ask for a full refund, and my brother-in-law (an attorney in Australia) is preparing lawsuit documents for breach of contract. They picked the wrong person to mess with.

Don't use Filipino Cupid!

Step one: most are not real. So eliminate the vast majority by simply asking for a video chat. They will make every excuse in the book. Try not to let them dupe you with photos or a dark night video. Ask for a simply video chat in broad daylight.
Step two. Agree that you will send NO money unless you meet in person and she is willing to come see you where you are. Do not pay for more than a taxi on arrival.
Two simple rules and the scammers are out of business. After you meet, you can decide if it is worth your while to invest.
And BTW, the devout Christian (yeah right) is a formula for taxation without representation. You figure it out.

This is such a massive scam on the level I haven't seen before. FilipinoCupid has been a complete waste of money! First of all, you have to pay for everything and the costs are exorbitant. Then you have to sift through bunch of bots. Finally, 15 out of 16 women I interacted with either asked me for money for rent and phone or wanted to give me the "financial consultation" pressing me to invest money into some kind of "innovative project". They have a new approach to scam on FilipinoCupid, but it's still ridiculous!

There are many ads of women that are located in different cities in China. They all claim that they are working as nannies or tutors for Chinese families. When writing to them I find that they all have a similar story. They do not have cell phones that they can communicate through texting or Skype. Only have access to emails. Most of them say they would like to meet me in my country. This all seems to be a scam. Is it? Am I being foolish thinking that these women actually exist?

Fake profile. Many excuses not to video call. Needs money. Lives in General Santos City, apparently. Supposedly lives with her brother after her parents died. Mentioned she has lost her grandmother, then makes the mistake of showing a photo of her grandmother and asked how her grandmother is, says she is fine. Keep well clear.

The company uses an auto renewal feature that defaults back to YES auto renew me after you make your purchase even after you select No at time of purchase. This is a tactic that they have used in the past and when I called them out on it they did a credit to my card but once again they pulled the same thing and I did not realize it until about 10 days after they auto billed me. I demand they credit my card but refused and their excuse was..."your using the service still". Yes because you keep charging me after I said No auto renewal and you won't turn it off.
This is criminal to change auto renewal behind the backs of the customer. Thugs!

All the women the I contacted and/or contacted me turned out to be fake. This goes for the "Verified" women as well. One "Verified" women on the site disappeared/deactivated her profile as soon as she got my WhatsApp number. I mean in like 2 minutes. The do not refund money either, not if you sent one like, message, or any other contact, they will not refund. The are a total scam!

I really don't know why this site don't care about their members. They only care about you if you upgrade your account. They terminated my account for no reason, and when I e-mailed them about it they didn't respond. I feel so violated. Trash system! I heard about the company in Ph that using fake accounts to scam foreigners.

Just know that you're going to have to send various documents (i. E. Copy of photo ID) if you want your upgraded account to be activated (your account is suspended until then - no access). I submitted my docs and spent the next week going back and forth with what seemed to be an automated unclear email response (And still no account access).

I called them a number of times and had the displeasure of speaking with an agent that was not only unhelpful, but very rude (she had the audacity of accusing me of committing fraud by paying through Paypal, when Paypal is a payment option!).

When I asked her if I could speak to a supervisor, she flat-out said, "no, if you want to speak to a supervisor, send an email and wait 24 hours." And that was just the start of the circus of customer disservice that ensued. Needless to say, if you're calling their number for phone support, you probably won't get it.

Heaps of scammers, heaps of nice people. Visited my friend at her home and work place. Honest to a fault. I have told her to buy(my money) better furniture for her and her nephew, but she has neglected to do so. Poor as dirt because of Christian principles. A happy smiling respectable lady who deserves better.
