Review: I have tried plentyoffish.com. There are MANY undesireable people on it, some even having multiple profiles!
I also met the man of my dreams on that site, after taking precautions about my own safety.

Review: plentyof fish.com is no better or no worse than any other dating site except that it's free.
If anyone thinks that people who pay $30 a month for Match.com are more honest or trustworthy, prettier, more educated or classier or any better than those who pay nothing on plentyffish, they need a wake up call.
With the exception of the few people who are using public computers in the library, everyone online either had a computer or a job where they can access one.
So the chances of having a homeless person post on these sites is rare, but the rest of the free world can freely go at it!

Review: The only good thing about this site is that it's free.
Otherwise you have to deal with power abusing mods that dictate what you can and cannot do.
There are many scantly clad ladies that are posers. if a guy tries that he gets banned.
There is no freedom of speech on the forums. Also the mods are very hypocritical.
PoF is more of a social site then anything else.
70% of the ppl there are NOT single.
10% are fake profiles. 15% are married couples. 5% is what you get left.
This site would be much better if it got rid of some mods who are abusing there privileges.

Review: I know you are not supposed to complain about something that is free but plentoffish has some serious problems that really make it quite an unpleasant place to use.
First of all don’t expect to be treated with any degree of equality by the sites owners or the Canadian and American moderators of it.
Being a North American site, it is bias towards their way of life and to their sense of humour (Or lack of one) and being from the UK, if you ever cross the mods in any way that is that no leave for appeal at their court.
A ruling was recently brought in where all photos used on the site had to be fully framed face shots and not of pets artistic photos etc.
Now I can hear a lot of folks saying “So what! I want to date a person not a pet” very true and I agree but it was a rule that was ONLY imposed on the UK users.
The second major problem with the site is the forums. Once again it would seem to anyone who spends any time reading the forums that the mods come down on posters not from North America with an iron hand in a steel glove.
Posters vanish from the forums banned for up to 3 years for (as it was revealed to me from a number of sources) only questioning a mod re a ruling.
Once again rules are imposed on UK users that are not enforced on the US or Canada.
All in all most of the UK users questioned have stated that whilst the site is free, the bias rulings from the management leave no room for you to freely express your true personality.
Very Cliquey

Review: Markass...likes to disconnect you from the site for VERY LITTLE reason..it appears that after he gets you on the mailing lists he then finds reason to cancel you....Markass is a real p..y. has done this to many guys on the site..He will dictate what he views as inappropriate...The slightest criticisms will get this creep to cancel you....

Review: plenttyoffish.com is the absolute WORST dating site in the history of the internet.
I've been on it for about 4 years, and never again! Less I want more of my postings and even my profile deleted without even one warning, for even doing nothing.
Especially after this POF owner Markus Frind has my email address to fill my inbox with tons of affiliate and 3rd party spam.
BEWARE people and use a different free site!

Review: plentyoffishcom have forums where you can get lots of advice about writing your profile, and they organise free singles events all round the country.
I find it a very friendly and helpful site.

Review: Re: previous reviews:- I have not been on plentyofffish.com for long, but so far I have had no spam from this site, and believe previous poster has made an erroneous assumption about the source of his spam.
Also, people get banned for a reason, some of them just don't understand that foul language or insulting other members is unacceptable.

Review: I registered on the plentoffish.com ages ago and never really bothered using it actively until a few weeks ago.
After a few chats with a couple of ladies which were going really well I was banned completely out of the blue.
No reason give...no warning...nothing. I have since tried to re-register several times but the profile always disappears within minutes.
I have no idea why and nobody responds to my emails.
VERY poor show from POF.
