They don't own a map or GPS. They ask you for you preferred city then stick you dating people 3 to 10 hours away. When you complain then you get screen problems. These people are idiots!

Tried to get to know FIVE different men. All ultimately lied to me about their age and their families They sent bogus photos. They lied about where they lived and what kind of work they did. Each after a month or two or three tried scamming me. Why did I keep going back? To see if any decent honest men were on the site. I didn’t find any. (No I never was dumb enough to send money. )

Half of the profiles are obvious bots, and the other half aren't trying. Also this site's overview was as worthless as Fb Dating.

Lots of fake profiles. If you see a profile of a man in a suit, informal dress, with a puppy, a child, and nonsense text such as god fearing, these are fake. They often impose as engineers, doctors or seem to have a $$$$ lifestyle with a boat, sports car etc. Often they include exuberant text like waiting for true love, have flowers and hearts, you will end up with a request for YOUR $$$. I never fell victim to it but know several women that did.

Got a scamer who found my address. I reported him to My local police. He showed up at my house. I deleted my profile out of fear. Now that he has been arrested dating is gone from my Facebook and all anyone can say is I've been banned for reporting a dangerous person

Why ask for my preferences, particularly my distance, when you're not going to follow it - I'm being shown men who are 2 hours away when I have it set to 15 miles. Lots of easy-to-detect scammers, men who don't speak English even though that's a setting of mine, men who don't bother with a little "about me". I would say my biggest issue is FB Dating ignoring my Preferences.

I deleted my account so I could redo it a d it disappeared. I have put messages into the Facebook help center, but no one will respond. I have looking up information on how to get my Facebook dating account, but apparently I am done using it. A lot of people have a hard time trying to get ot on their Facebook pages. I cannot understand why everyone is not loved access to it.

Sometimes you match, and people don’t talk to you at all. You gotta go thru some not-so-great people. It can be tedious.

***100% scams*** I joined before Christmas and now it is the end of March. I see the same stock photos with different names and profiles but the same bad English once they initiate contact. Every message I have received has tried to immediately get me off of FB and onto What's App or Google Hangouts, which means they are a scammer. It's been a quarter of a year of nothing but offshore bad grammatical attempts at getting me to a platform that will have no record of their future attempts to give me a sob story and separate me from some money.

Most of the men are not even real. I had no idea that there were so many neurosurgians from Norway in my city. . .

TOO MANY FAKE PROFILES. No sense of monitoring on this site of the blatant misuse of profiles (men with women's names, same type of jobs, and pictures used over and over that are completely faked). No indication of reporting feature working. Extreme waste of time to wade thru the fakes versus the real.
