I met my wife on FilipinoCupid in August of 2019. I was fortunate to visit her and her family in the Philippines a couple of times before the lockdowns began. We got married in Dubai in July of 2021. The process of bringing your Filipina wife or fiancé to the US takes time, but my wife arrived in the US in April of 2022. We could not be happier!

Did I encounter potential scammers on the site asking for money? Yes, but you will find that on any dating site. Did my wife encounter potential scammers on the site just looking for a holiday girlfriend or video sex? Yes, but again, there are players and perverts on every dating site.

Initially, you will experience a kind of "high" from all the attention you get. Feel free to enjoy that experience, but you can't really get to know someone unless the two of you agree to be exclusive and really focus on trying to get to know one another.

One thing to note. There is no such thing as divorce in the Philippines. If you meet a woman that is married and separated from her Filipino husband, she will have to get an annulment (from the Philippine government, not the Catholic Church) before you can bring her to the US on a spousal or fiancé visa. Annulments in the Philippines take time (the quickest I am aware of was about 6 months, but most take 1.5 - 2 years or more). They also take money (around $5000 USD, more money than most Filipina's can afford). Please keep this in mind if the woman you are getting to know is separated, lacks the funds to file for an annulment, or you are unwilling to help her financially or wait out the process.

Be skeptical of individuals promising quick and inexpensive annulments. Many Filipina's fall victim to annulment scams! The US government will attempt to verify the validity of the annulment during the immigration process, and some women only discover they were scammed when their visa application is denied.

If you do your due diligence, FilipinoCupid is a great site to meet an amazing Filipina woman. The 7000+ islands in the Philippines are full of them!

Money grabbers
January 21, 2021

First time ever using a dating site skeptical right away scan people with same interests try to make judgment on who might be compatible it went on and on to use a card to get my time to be able to text frankly I didn't trust it but did find two people that I would like to contact finally they gave me one free hour and I get a text from one that is interested just got her one free hour texted her heard nothing back then immediately they were wanting me to sign up and pay so I could continue text you would think that they would give you enough free time to get started not try to get money from you immediately without knowing the legit to me of the site noticed they don't use PayPal pay safe I'm not sure what that is and how secure that is but it was funny you would get spurts of people texting saying they wanted to meet you and then those spurts would go away and nothing it was like you were being set up to pay I am currently looking for a site that I can trust because this one does not seem trustworthy and when I tried to unsubscribe I could not so I put everything into spam and I am still currently receiving messages

I'VE BEEN TALKING TO THIS PINA LADY FOR A WHILE KNOW. WE PLANNED ON GETTING MARRIED. BUT SHE STARTED HAVING MEDICAL PROBLEM AND I SENT HER 150.00 TO PAY THE DOCTOR AND AFTER THAT, HER REFRIGERATOR BROKE DOWN AND SHE COULDN'T BUY FOOD TO KEEP IT FROM SPOILING, SHE WANTED ME TO SEND HER 400.00. I SAID NO AND THEN SHE STARTED TELLING ME THAT SHE WAS HUNGRY AND HAVEN'T EATEN ANYTHING. I HAVE SKYPED WITH HER, IN THE PAST AND I WANTED TO MAKE SURE THAT SHE WASN'T A "LADYBOY". WELL, SHE STARTED DOING SEX ACTS WITHOUT ME ENCOURAGING HER TO DO THAT, SHOWING ME THAT SHE WAS A FEMALE. SHE WAS DEFINITELY A FEMALE. AND THEN SHE WANTED TO SEE "ME" AND I SAID NO. I ASKED HER WHY ALL OF A SUDDEN WHEN SHE MET ME, DOES SHE START TO HAVE MONEY PROBLEMS. SHE ALWAYS RESPONDS TO ME IN A NICE SWEET WAY. WELL I JUST CUT HER OFF, YESTERDAY. THIS IS THE THIRD AND FINAL TIME CUTTING HER OFF, BUT I FEEL BAD ABOUT IT.

Scammers abound. Scammers ask you to move off site to an alternate messaging app, then beg for money.

Beware: Total Scam
February 9, 2020

I subscribed to a one month membership because some girls there took my attention, but now that I am on the other side of the mirror, I can tell you that this website is a total scam.

First of all, when I was a free member, I received like 60 messages per day from girls that seemed interested, but as soon as I became a premium member, I didn't receive anymore message from new girls. Not even one, not even two, but absolutely no more message. How can you explain that huge difference between the free and premium membership? It's for me an absolute evidence that some profiles are only there to try to get you into a paid membership.

You are probably trying to tell me that you are monitoring fake profiles then how the $#*! can you explain me that a lot of the messages I received when I was a free member were absolutely identical: Exact same sentence (which was not common), exact same punctuation, capital letters used in a same way... are you $#*!ing kidding me? Did you really think that we were not going to see the scam? I even took screenshots cause I didn't believe it.

Not to mention that the website was working better when I was a free member rather than now where it takes forever to load a page and I still get error messages... So those are for you the benefits of being a premium member right? 30 euros per month for a scam and an outdated website?

Be sure that I will leave bad reviews everywhere until I get a refund and I have a huge amount of followers that are going to follow my advices.

And please don't come with the same speach you did to other disappointed members when you say that you have zero tolerance toward fake profiles and that your fraud prevention team works 24/7 to remove non-genuine profiles bla bla bla bla bla, this answer just doesn't work for me.

I've recently joined few days ago in hopes for searching for a partner who's between the age of 18-30. I set an accurate information, including the fact I'm 18.

The past three days ago, I have a nice time meeting a lot of male, foreign white men. Other few aren't nice. I haven't found the one yet, knowing these men didn't fit the match criteria. They're not in between the age of 18-30, they're instead older.

A day ago until now have worsened, there are a lot of white, older foreign males flooded my messages asking if I am interested in participating in sexual activities. Few of them wanted me to be their mistress, one wanted me to be in a threesome! (I stated I'm also interested on females at my profile bio. I'm bisexual).

They even asked if I have WhatsApp or Skype, sometimes with force. Giving them link to my messenger instead because I don't have either of these apps, the sexual harassment again starts.

Overall, this isn't a good dating site for Filipino women (ironically, from the name of the website). Most of these foreign, white older men who've I encountered admittedly they're into vulnerable, younger Filipinas because they're family-oriented, hospitality, and of course, they're submissive.

They believed that because we, Filipino women, are easily to be caught in their hands is because we all have similar goals in life is by living in a simple, normal life. They used this to manipulate us, promising to be in relationship, marry, or send us money only to provide their sexual favors.

Plot twist: I got my account terminally suspended because I put down the sexual favors from one of the foreign, white older men.

Dear Di,
"We apologize for your unwelcoming experience. We have zero tolerance towards members of the nature you described. Unfortunately, it is extremely hard for us to verify the real intentions of the members as most dating sites do not require any form of formal identification to register and most members use their private email address to communicate with members.
It is very sad that a small minority of dishonest people will make such a negative impression of our site, as the vast majority of the members registered with us are honest.
We do our best to remove these people from our site, deleting any profiles showing dubious photos or information, as soon as we see them, however, we also rely on our valued members who kindly report to us any suspect or fake profiles they find on our site.
In addition, Our fraud prevention team works 24/7 to remove non-genuine profiles. If you would like to report a suspicious profile, please submit a ‘report abuse’ form or contact us at www.filipinocupid.com/en/help/helpdesk"
