Complete garbage
Am has declined below worthless over the recent years. 95% of profiles are fake. Even some of the verified profiles are fake. If most of the stats section is ask me, they are fake. I’m cautiously burning up my last bit of credits and will never return to this completely fake app. Support is nonexistent and does absolutely nothing besides giving false responses
Too many fake, scam profiles
Unfortunately Ashley Madison does not monitor or protect the legitimate users even when a scam profile is brought to their attention. All profiles should be REQUIRED to verify they are who they say they are. All I can say is legitimate, real individuals beware and navigate cautiously!
90% are fake
Profiles are so fake it’s obvious
Scam
Worst app to meet people, everything is so over priced. I recommend other apps over this scamming garbage of an app.
WORTS APP
Dont use the app total scam
Terrible and scam
This is complete scam and please guys don’t waste your money and time . Lots of fake account/bots account. No actual linkage to a real date.
Realizing how pathetic the world has become.
3 hours in and I have spent quite a bit of money just to open messages from multiple bot accounts that can’t even fool a 4th grader. Low effort and cringe attempt to sweep the pockets of a person looking for connection. I was an idiot to think something with substance exists in these apps.
Money Grab
Such a shame what happened to this app, I used it back 4-5 years ago and it was decent, not overly expensive and actually worked. Now it’s straight up a money-grab! Everything requires multiple credits, they are EXPENSIVE, photos and some features are glitchy, and you cannot really do anything unless you buy from them. You’d have to be a MULTIMILLIONAIRE to use this app comfortably. Such a joke!
Not surprised it’s utter garbage
I’m sure we’ve all heard about this terrible app/site but I figured I’d check it out. Can’t do literally anything on here without having to pay for credits to message which are undeniably chat bots and fake profiles. That’s pretty much normal for apps like these but what I find hilarious is that the devs will delete anything in your profile that calls them out on their BS. Even just saying you won’t pay for anything gets all your info deleted. 🤣
100% scam
I had plenty of people like me and almost 100% of them ask to move conversation to WhatsApp or another messaging app right away. Once on there, they all have the same excuse for not being able to meet. They just went out of town for a month or two, or they were only in town for work. They all work as “real estate investors” or some other made up career. Then they start asking me about my investments and if I would be interested in investing in their “business.” I report all of them and get no response from AM. I see their profiles are blocked soon after but in the meantime there are no refunds for the credits you spent. Don’t waste a single penny or minute on this scam site.
Too many bots for the price
A lot of fake profiles sending messages to make you respond and waste credits. Same real women on every day respond they only talk if you buy credits. Credits are ridiculously expensive. Not worth the time for men.
Scammers

No real profiles
No real profiles anymore.
Fake People, expensive
Lots of scammers and bots. This site has went down hill big time. Very disappointed
High cost
It costs too much to message ppl. Credits should be much cheaper and discounted rates should be offered more often.
Too expensive
Paid for a subscription and still can’t send messages. Too expensive for my liking
Don’t do it
Full of scammers, dating apps come with a cost but AM is insane on their charges.
SCAMMERS!!!!
There are WAAAAAAAAYYYYY TOO MANY SCAMMERS on this site!!!! And NOW, the idiots who run this site, won’t even let you screenshot their pictures for PROOF!!! I report AT LEAST 20 Scammers EVERY DAY!!!!! It’s RIDICULOUS now!!!! This site DEFINITELY went down hill!! B
An app designed to scam men
It doesnt matter if the woman messages you, or is interested in you or try to make the first move, the app will always charge the man to make any interaction at all. It doesnt even matter if you are subscribe to their “prime or premium or whatever the name” subscription, you will always as a man will have to pay. Dont fall for this scam. Of i could give them a negative ammount of stars, i would.
Poor quality lots of bots
Gimmicks not what it use to be
Not what it used to be
The last few years, the number of fake profiles and scammer accounts has exploded. I’d say over 10/1 fake accounts over actual individuals. Since woman don’t have to pay anything, there is nothing to stop the constant slew of fake profiles. It used to not be this way, but now it’s completely useless.
Expensive and loaded with chatbots and Scammers !!
What a nasty Ripoff!!!Ashley Madison at one time was a great discrete and casual dating site.
Unfortunately messaging is expensive and it’s easy to eat up “credits” when you get flooded by messages or chat requests from scammers and chatbots!
Also beware of the ones who send you collect messages, you not only eat up collect message credits, but the normal messaging credits that are required to initiate contact from your own account as well!!!
What was once a decent site has become nothing more than a money and time wasting SCAM!

99.99% Bots and Scam
I receive about 20-30 winks and requests per DAY on this app, with tag repeating tag lines in one form or another. Virtually no new real women show on here, meaning it's virtually nothing but bots or scammers. The very few who successfully trick me in to wasting my credits immediately ask for my Snapchat or WhatsApp. No idea why. Thanks AM!
AM used to be better.
I have used AM many times met some people. It used to be better experience. Now people are too cheap to send messages and too cheap to ask me out for a nice date.
Don’t purchase unless you plan on spending hundreds of dollars just to have one conversation
This is the absolute worst app I’ve ever used in my life with membership fees and buying their entry-level coins at almost $100 total for the cost of both. I was only able to message and receive message from about five women one message before it asked for another five coins to send a message back I am absolutely dumbfounded that a site can charge the people who buy it have no idea so this is my warning to you. Beware all of this site.
Account suspended for no reason
My account was suspended for no reason and I’ve tried to appeal with no luck
Rubbish
You subscribe and pay a monthly fee, which gives you nothing. Credits are ridiculously priced. Not worth it at all.
App Not What You Used to Be - Excessive Paywalls and Poor Value for Men
I remember when online dating sites were about meeting people and building connections. Now it feels like nearly every feature is locked behind an expensive paywall. Asking users to pay over $200 just to see who viewed their profile, read messages, or communicate freely is unreasonable.
As a man using the platform, it often feels like you’re expected to pay premium prices just to participate in basic interactions that should be included with a standard membership. The costs add up quickly, and there is no guarantee that you’ll actually make meaningful connections.
I’m not opposed to paying for a quality service, but the current pricing structure feels more focused on monetization than helping people meet. Until the pricing becomes more reasonable and core communication features are made accessible, I can’t recommend spending money here.

Fake and Ai
Mainly Ai or scammers that pouch you on paying for each message you send. This app is a scam. Spend lots of money on it too
Money grab
Can’t do anything on here without paying an obscene amount of money
Enough is enough
I’ve tolerated the app and the customer service for two years now and not only for everything you do but now they accept the charge just in front of your face. It’s the biggest joke ever.
Trash
This app is absolute garbage. Its pricing should be illegal. They want hundreds of dollars for you to be able to message someone even if they message you first. There are too many stupid options in the way. Winks, messages, keys, credits, subscription, un blur photos is all too much. There are so many bots. I don’t believe AM even has customer service. Steer clear of this app. Seriously. It really is a trash app that will take up space on your phone bc it’s absolutely useless. This app in no way compares to any other dating app on the market. It feels outdated and overpriced.
Overpriced
It’s overpriced and there’s nothing but scammers on here trying to blackmail you, and there is no security with this app. To be honest they should refund a lot of people their money.
Great if you like scammers
If you like to review fake profiles and acammers this is the app for you!
Really went down
Use to be a good site. All fake profiles now and a lot are site generated. Plus over ran by people looking for money. No offers that are budget friendly just high priced for what now is a site that doesn't offer much
Frustrated
A lot of fake profiles, majority actually are. Would think AM has the resources to use AI to eliminate fake profiles from being created.
This App is a SCAM
What a joke! Absolutely crammed with BOTS...
Men have to PAY while Women Don't--so any actual female is unconcerned about the fees and time wasting...
DO NOT FALL FOR THE SCAM...

Money Gouge
Not impressed. Nickel and dime users worse than Federal and state government.
Disgusting app
They only accept pedos the app needs shut down !!!!!!!!
Kinda terrifying terrible
I never met so many scammers personally in my life this app allows way too many people unverified on here period not even from this country. Untrustworthy people on this site makes it not worth trying to sort through to find any connections
Older man
I’m a 69 year old widower looking for love. This is the wrong site for my age. Even though it was recommended. No one close to my age on this site.
Costs a fortune to chat.
Far to expensive
Horrible
So many fake accounts. Save your money
Spent money for no reason
Do not use this website it’s garbage. It is designed to keep getting money from you to
Even have a conversation. Send one text counts as a deduction and the more it goes which is not very long they need lots of money. Charges you per text! P

Waste of time and money
If you manage to get past all the paywalls (70¢ a message, $1.50 priority and 50¢ to open each message you get) and then manage to get past all the scams, you’ll find that you’re better off using tinder
FAKES
Haven’t found anyone real, all I have found are FAKES.
Horrible
Horrible
Scammers Everywhere
Be really careful on this app, many will pull you to WhatsApp or telegram. Analyze their messages to you. Many are written by ai. Google Chrome will analyze your messages and tell you if they are ai generated.
Bot Factory
I’m starting to believe that Ashley Madison pays individuals to solicit men and create communication so that Paying members burn through their tokens.
