A member for more than 10 years. Recently logged in after 3 years. Asks you for a small contribution - fine. Advertise credit card verification, click on it, put your credit card details thinking it is free. When I clicked verified, saw the message “for just 56 euros, enjoy a lifetime of experience.” It's a dark pattern and totally illegal. Contacting their "support" is a lost cause.

Fell for the verification fraud as explained here a lot already. It's a dark pattern and totally illegal. Will see if I get my money back through my bank. Contacting their "support" is a lost cause.

Charged me 56 EUR without even telling me about it. Trying to get back my money right now.

SCAM. Man soll sich verifizieren und auf einmal werden einem 56€ abgezogen. Unglaublich. Auf E-Mails wird nicht reagiert. Bloß Abstand davon halten.

I am not able to use my verified and lifetime paid couch surfing account of which I was an active member in Mumbai, India. Now I can't even open it in Canada. That is ridiculous, I am really unhappy abou it. I have stopped using it and lost track of lots of my good friends I was able to make in India over the years. AL

Same as other stated, I was scammed into giving my credit card information and they retract money for the verification process without informing me.

Attention, le site n'existe plus vraiment, ils ont seulement laissé une page pour ramassé des sous au personnes qui ne le savent pas. Mais il n'y a quasiment plus personne d'actif sur couchsurfing depuis quelques années déjà. Ah et oui, il vous demande bien de l'argent après avoir payé l'inscription pour vous sous-tirer d'avantage...

Although the idea could be nice, it's quite badly implemented: tried to subscribe after advice from a happy friend, and after inserting my data I was asked 2.~£ a month or a yearly fee... which actually I was not going to pay but anyway chose to take my time before deciding. Still, 2 days after I received a request from a guy willing to share a visit with me... I got the email notification but am not able to reply because I can't access my own account unless I pay! And, funny enough (though standard for most companies...) I wrote to their Contact/Support page explaining the issue, and they replied to me "why unfortunately they must charge" WITHOUT UNDERSTANDING the actual issue, that is I'm listed but can't even reply politely to people! And no further replies to my emails...
