PenPalReviews of penpal.me

gJune 18th I signed up, made my profile and paid to send a postcard off from the U.S. to Germany. Today is July 25th and it says "In Transit". It doesn't nor should it take over a Month to print a small postcard and mail it off to the recipient. I also noticed that I have to keep sending (paid) postcards weekly to maintain my active status. This is a straight up scam then. Nobody is going to send a postcard to someone who is listed as inactive. Members who slip into inactive category probably don't even get seen by other members. Also, you only get a tiny list of 6 people you can briws to send postcards too and there is a "These aren't clicking" button to give you 6 new people. you can hit that button twice for a total of only 18 people to choose from befire it says you e reached your limit. thus proves member visibility is extremely limited. It's been a month and I never recieved a postcard from someone else. So you have to keep giving PenPal.me money regularly (buying more postcards to send) just to be seen by others and then HOPE somone sends one to you. I highly doubt this is a real service. it's possible they are taking people's money and simply not performing their end of it, perhaps only fufilling SOME of the orders in order to maintain "legitimacy". I strongly suggest NOT using PenPal.me

i like the website and the idea of it, i have meet a real person that we have been sending letters back and forth. I will say that the website and service does come with its downside, first of the website is extreamly slow, to the point it cant even load the conversation with the person im sending letters to or other people for the fact. And sending and recieving letters takes approx 1,5 months pr letter to arrive and send.

Worthless.

I would recommend deleting your account and using alternative Pen Pal apps like Slowly. I signed up thinking I was going to connect with people from around the world, and what I got was AI generated images and AI generated chat which you can spot a mile away from woman wanting to use Telegram, Whatsapp and other alternative chat programs. Such a shame as it had potential but likely just a bot site used for scamming cash for postcards with no origin. You have been warned.

There's not even a settings button to delete my profile and it costs too much money. I wish I would have found the review page first.

I bought a three month membership subscription about a month ago. Penpal.me keeps suggesting pen pals that have similar interest to me. I sent a message to numerous of them and got no reply. Additionally I send numerous messages to other profiles that are of interest to me and I got no reply. On the other hand I keep receiving emails from Penpal.me with women soliciting me for sexual relationships. Many of these sexual emails do not show up in my message bank on Penpal.me, they only show up in my gmail.com account. A few weird persons contact me both via email and via my message inbox, they write a few words and I reply to them, thinking that they are real persons but then I never hear from them again. I am here wondering if these messages are coming from dead people/ ghosts. I strongly believe that Penpal.me is now a scam. It might have started off genuine a few years ago but now from my experience it is shaping out to be someone collecting money under false pretense. There is no customer support, there is no one to correspond with to ask questions about the service. I get no real penpal but get lots of sexual advances and suggestive talk. I will definitely be reporting this website for further scrutiny

Ich hatte einem Mann aus Italien meine Email Adresse gegeben und da wollte er schon Sexy Bilder von mir haben. So etwas mache ich bestimmt nicht mehr wieder. Es ist doch immer das gleiche und ich bin sehr darüber enttäuscht.

Man muss zuviel Geld ausgeben für nur Penfriends. Und die meisten die schreiben sind aus Afrika oder Asien, die dann gleich nach der Telefonnummer fragen zwecks Whatsapp. Ist für mich nicht im Sinne von Brieffreundschaft.
