Ah couchsurfing... Heureux d'avoir connu l'âge d'or de ce concept, des rencontres inoubliables dans toute l'Europe et au delà, des invités inoubliables pour la plupart.. Un solide groupe d'amis au sein même de ma ville. La liberté, le partage, l'amitié, parfois plus et peu importe, c'était de la découverte, de la solidarité, du bonheur... désormais payant. Vous vous êtes bien foutus de nous, je n'ose pas imaginer l'horreur que ça a du être au sein de votre "entreprise". Vendre son âme comme ça, monnayer nos échanges, nous retirer nos souvenirs... Pauvre de vous. Bravo aux créateurs, vous avez embelli mon existence et honte aux vampires qui sous couvert de sécurité et pandémie ont retourné leur veste et essayé de nous faire culpabiliser. Vive la relève, gardez-les vos nouveaux membres vérifiés qui payent pour éviter les individus douteux que votre nouvelle politique contribue elle même à attirer !

I was a CS host for 6 years...but in the last 2-3 years the organisation got worse and worse.. treating their hosts terrible...ignoring them and blocking their membership when they didn't like their views. They then used the excuse of Covid to force everyone to pay to access their own profiles, a serious breach of trust. They deserve no support for the way the have acted and destroyed a once wonderful community led organisation.

They ask for money to get access to my own profile even. Without any warning, just one day (a previously non-profit organization) just blocked all access to their website, including for volunteers and people that only share their home with others. You can't even see messages other member sent.

Couchsurfing as it is now it's "dead" . Must be honest and say that until 2015 it worked perfectly. I 've met amazing people and hosted over 60 people. This current couchsurfing is all about the money. For that there is Airbnb. Big fail for the new management.

@Couchsurfing I gave my credit card number in full trust, and without telling me couchserfing take money from me, as a subscription. That is cheating and fraudulently charged. I want the subscription fully returned at the earliest. Neither couchsurfing inc mentioned that they will charge nor there was written on that page how much will be charged. Credit card guarantees are a common norm but charging without information is cheating and fraud.

ACHTUNG BETRUG!!! Erst nach Registrierung erfährt man, dass die Nutzung 2,99 Euro im Monat kosten soll. Schließt man das Abo ab, werden zusätzlich 56,- Euro abgebucht, was bei Abo-Abschluss nicht ersichtlich ist. FINGER WEG!!! BETRÜGER!!!

I haven't been using the app for about two years. I deactivated my account back then and today I got the message that they charged me a yearly fee of 14 euros.

CouchSurfing is probably the story of the largest and most global treason of the non-profit world. It's abused the work of tens of thousands of volunteers through the years and hasn't even managed to become profitable. It used to change lives such as mine.
