Reviews of True.com

... well true.com it seems is a scam, much like amateurmatch.com and a host of others. I joined only one site amateurmatch ... just before I paid ... I had a free account ... lots of messages 6 to 8 everyday for about 5 months ... some repeats ... so wow ... I signed up ... sending a cheque from a account with very little money ... guess what ... the volume of messages drop to one a day and they very quickly to 1 every 2 to 3 days and now I am lucky IF I get one message a week ... anyways it was mad money ... so I knew if it did not pan out I could accept it.

I placed in my profile "only women in three cites need contact me" ... guess what ... I still got e-mails from women far away ... not even close to me.

that brings us to true.com ... in my profile I specifically state that those who smoke Do Not Contact Me ... that is a joke ... I get smokers all the time so what does that say about the integrity of the site.

Until I googled this site I was seriously considering joining because there arewomen who were close and interesting ... I will not join ... not now.

There was one other site I joined with a free account ... sexsearch.com lots of e-mails ... nice women very close ... after not checking the site on a regular basis ... emails stopped ... so you have to wonder what is really happening on these sites.

I joined horneymatches ... just to see what might happen ... some interesting women close by ... but enough to pay and find out.

I know a couple of people who used lavalife and plentyoffish with mixed results ...

So one could say buyer beware.

As for joining another site ... I think not.

My suggestion is to do your research and be carefully ... the sad part is there are legitimate sites that have some real honest people looking for a partner ... the scam sites set up by greedy people are the ones that should be scammed all the way to jail.

i joined true .com and was immediately contacted by a woman who said she was from ohio. she sent me some photos of herself. a few emails later she told me she was not from ohio but was from perm russia. i really like slavic looking women so i continued to write back to her and a relationship developed. to make a long story short i was scammed by this woman for $400.00. i guess true.com is not a safe dating site as they proclaim.

This is a scam for your money. I tried to cancel my membership and was still charged on my credit card. They said that they offer me a free membershipfor one month after I cancel my membership, so I said okay. Never went back on the site. Then my credit card was charged again, called and was told I did not call in to cancel again after the free trial. Boy, what a rip off. Did not find one good match on this site. If you try and e-mail or send an e-mail to someone, you don't get a response back from that person. I would not tell anyone about this site. IT IS A RIP OFF.

I have to agree with most people on here. True.com is a scam. Although I have to say one thing for them, I actually did meet my wife on there and didn't have problems with the cancellation myself, but I know there are people that have.

I did have problems where people would be sending me messages about messages I had sent them saying I was interested, when I NEVER SENT THEM MYSELF! I also got messages from people that I responded to saying they had never sent me anything. This made me mad.

Oh and a forewarning for those that do try the service, don't bother trying to send your real email to anyone through emails. When you do, it gets changed to your screen name @truebeginnings.com. My wife and I discovered this when we were using the trial. The same applies to messages. The only way you will be able to exchange real email addresses is through their chat program. My wife and I met on the 7 day trial and the day before it was up we exchanged emails, hit it off and the rest snowballed so I am proud to say that we scammed the scammers!

Overall I highly advise anyone to stay away from this site. I know there was 1 other woman who met her significant other on here, but please note that she and I are extremely rare exceptions for this site. Overall I think E-Harmony really sucks too, but it is honestly the best dating site out there. If you really want to try and make a connection use that one, but I warn you...even with all the dimensions people are still superficial, but ANYTHING is better than True.com!

WOW!! I am amazed that TRUE.COM remains in business. This site is ran by greedy people. It's all about the almighty dollar for them. The sad part is this company trains their employees to scam
the public. TRUE.COM falsey advertises that background checks are done on every member. What a crock. I have seen children on cam and when reported to True Customer Care the agent asked me if the kids were doing anything wrong. I was LIVID!!!!!!!!!!! I called and reported this employee to a supervisor, whether this employee was disciplined or not is beyond me. However, a few weeks later I had another "run in" with this supervisor because he made a false statement in a public chatroom about a member that has caused more problems than Carter has peanuts.
When I let the supervisor know that I felt what he had done was wrong he threatened to ban me for harrassing him. This supervisor singled out this member as a personal favor to him. Now my issue is what else is this supervisor going to do for members Give out private information to others who ask for personal favors? I reported this supervisor and emailed a copy of the background on this certain member, so much for not allowing convicted felons on this site.
The supervisor I spoke with on December 28,2009 felt the other supervisor had done nothing wrong. I happen to disagree. It proved to me that TRUE.COM only has the interest of its BANK ACCOUNT at heart. I did have issues with billing in the beginning and I know alot of other people who have been automatically charged after canceling their account, this goes back to TRUE.COM's conflicting language when it comes to billing.
FYI...TRUE.COM continues to operate in contempt of court. By court order TRUE.COM was suppose to change their automated billing procedures "According to the settlement, True.com must revise its auto-subscription system to avoid future members from being accidentally charged. " TRUE.COM has yet to do so.
I'm not saying that every thing about TRUE.COM is bad. I have met some very nice people and some not so nice. The sad part of this is when the Attorney General's office in Texas shuts them down, some innocent people will lose their jobs. When this supervisor told me she felt the other supervisor was not wrong I cancelled my membership.

OK, I never had an issue with true.com billing and I have been a member for 3 + years off on. I got them to lower the monthly billing just for the chat rooms $9.95 a month not $49.95. The big issue is that true.com checks for background on married and felons. To be quite frank they don't even run background checks on people and screen them. I have seen married and felons on there chatting in the chat rooms. Recently I ran a background check on a member there and not only he is a felon and got the charge reduced to misdemeanor for making terroristic threats and that member got banned for life. As a result true.com got me and another member banned for passing out the background check in private emails to fellow chatters not using their email system. So that person found out that truth was being emailed about him he called true.com and got me and another member banned. Now background checks are public record and there is no law preventing people accessing that information and it cost from $20 to $50. True.com is a joke when it comes to screening people for married and felons. To me that is false marketing scheme to give people that their site is the best place around.

The other bogus claim that true.com proudly makes is they have a 30 million subscribers as active members. If that is the case then why aren't the chat rooms filled up? and most of the rooms are empty. Currently the chat rooms are only allowing 112 chatters per room. The other thing is that true.com is still using Microsoft server 2003 for their website and services. If they had that kind of many users then they have the cash to buy new hardware and migrate to Microsoft 2008R2 server and make the site and chat room more stable. True.com crashes allot and Internet Explorers users that use version 8 can't access the site very well and not compatible with the site.

The really bad thing about true.com is that I have seen kids on there in the chat rooms getting naked and I get outraged and I call true.com and go to the customer care room and report them. As a result the attorney generals office is now investigating true.com. They also have a huge problem with porn spammers that solicit for barely legal teen smut sites and also Ghana scammers whom are men posing as women to Phish for credit cards.

Final thoughts about true.com I have met fellow members in person and gone to the gatherings and made some nice life long friends as a result. Now this is a good thing about true.com and also get to see who you are chatting with on cam.

This company is the worst single site I have ever seen.I'am 53 yo and do not want to be affiliated with women that are 18yo,yet,I was getting winks from girls 18-19yo when I specifically wanted to meet people MY OWN AGE ! Also,they were thousands of miles away,when I wanted to meet someone relatively CLOSE !! Fortunatly, I did not give them my cc# as I did not want the hassles of previous reviews.

This site deserves minus 1 million stars!!! True.com is a scam....Stay away from them or you will lose your money! Please pay attention and read all of the reviews. I wish I had done that before I signed up.
I tried the initial trial and was told if I decided to join it would be 19.95. I was offered an extension and I took the extension I was told if I decided to continue it would be 24.95. I called to cancel and was told that they had charged my card 49.95! When I asked the person I was speaking with why when I was told 24.95 and before that 19.95 she told me she was not on that call and I told her "exactly." When asked to speak to a supervisor I was told "I am the floor supervisor and there is no one else to speak with."

Please pay attention to the winks and the last time the person was active. It is quite confusing as it will say this person was active a month ago and I wonder how could a person send a wink if they hadn't been active for months. When you set your preferences you will still receive winks from those you have said you did not want to receive information from.

Watch out! True.com was a waste of time for me, and it had quite confusing billing terms.

True.com has a lot of inactive profiles. In my area, I sent out multiple emails, only to find out from customer service that almost all of those profiles were inactive (or perhaps fraudulent).

Moreover, True.com tries to confuse you regarding their trial period and your required cancellation date. When you sign up, they tell you that you have to cancel or billing will begin on a stated date. That date is actually the day AFTER you have to cancel. If you don't cancel the day before, then they bill you and give you a lot of grief about their own language.

DO NOT USE TRUE.COM!!

Here's my story. I signed up because they were running a special for like 3 days free a while back.... over a year a go actually... but they require a credit card and after the 3 days, they pretty much count on people not remembering to cancel so they can bill their credit cards.

Thats what i did, but it was fair enough because i did agree that if i didnt cancel within the 3 days that i would pay, but I cancelled as soon as possible.

This morning I should have had $60 something on my card and when i tried to buy baby wipes, i got declined, so i called my bank and found out True.com had billed me early this morning. I was livid. It was 4am and their customer service lines were not open so i tried to log back into my account... I posted on my profile what had happened, and for anyone who reads it, not to pay for any services from them because it was a scam. Every time i did this, and it would go to get reviewed, true.com staff would fill my headline in with "hi" or "hello" and delete what i had to say.

I sent them an email assuring them that if they didnt refund me every f*cking dime they have robbed me of, I would not hesitate to take them to court.

When the lines were open, I called and the guy on the phone confirmed that I cancelled my membership in May of 2008.

SO WHY THE FUCK WOULD THEY THINK IT WAS OK TO BILL ME NOW, IN SEPTEMBER OF 2009????? AND WHY DID THEY STILL HAVE MY CREDIT CARD INFO ON FILE???????
