They ask you to pay a monthly amount before even being able to see how it works or if it worth. Absolute robbery.

Ich hatte Couchsurfing lediglich als Anbieterin genutzt, d.h., dass ich einige Leute kostenlos untergebracht habe, ihnen auch noch ein Frühstück serviert und sie ab und zu zum Essen eingeladen habe. Es war halt eine Plattform für Leute, die wenig Geld haben, und trotzdem um die Welt reisen wollen. Das ist vorbei! Es ist skandalös, wie das Unternehmen mit den Mitgliedern umgeht! Über Nacht haben sie ihr Angebot in ein Kostenpflichtiges umgewandelt. Man kann sich nicht einmal abmelden und seine Daten löschen, ohne dass man Geld dafür bezahlen soll! Das ist unerhört und nicht rechtens! Ursprünglich war das Angebot gut und gemeinnützig gedacht, dann wurde die Plattform verkauft und ist seitdem ein kommerzielles Unternehmen. Nach der Neuausrichtung änderte Couchsurfing seine Nutzungsbedingungen. Der Konzern darf die Daten der Mitglieder nun zeitlich unbegrenzt speichern und an Dritte unbegrenzt weitergeben. Außerdem kann der Konzern seine allgemeinen Geschäftsbedingungen und Datenschutzbestimmungen jederzeit ändern, ohne seine Nutzer darauf hinzuweisen. Aufgrund dieser Erfahrungen und des Umgangs mit den Mitgliedern kann ich nur vor dieser Plattform warnen!

After hosting over 10 guest in 2 months. I was promised user verification for 3 months, suddenly 2 weeks later I was asked to pay for my verification. I contact support to find out there was nothing they could do. A year later, I log in to see my profile is being held for ransome! I can't even enter my profile to delete the images. Surely this is not legal. If they had asked us properly I'm sure they would have gottten more funding.

I paid to connect to my profile. Payment has become compulsory for everyone! But now they accuse me of having created a fake profile and have not even given me a refund. this is unacceptable. "This profile does not appear to be a valid profile. Your profile has been deactivated, as it is against our Terms of Use for members to create false profiles." This is not a fake profile, please give me my money back !

I made the account because I’m broke, I have no where to stay while trying to find a job. So I went to them as a last resort. I have no money that’s why I’m couch surfing and it’s the same for many others. The fact that I made an account just to get locked on a screen telling me I have to pay to use the website when I was recommended this for my exact situation is completely unreasonable.

Possible payment scam. Paid the annual fee, was then being shown the same ´Make payment´ page. Logged out. Logged in again. Same page appeared. Checked my mailbox. A message from my bank, saying they had noticed a suspect payment, and advised me to check. The bank advised me to cancel payment and to block my card. Great. Couchsurfing facebook page: I did not find any way to contact them. Couchsurfing page: Too complicated a menu to get through to them. Most importantly: I did not see any menu item about payment issues.

A company with security issues which doesn't care about the community that has created around it.
