Roommates.comReviews of roommates.com

Roommates.com does not check the people posting in their site. I moved in with an elderly lady I met through here who had severe mental issues and was lucky to get out of her home quickly and find an alternate living situation. I’ve learned the importance of doing a background check on the landlords renting a room and will never use a site such as this one again to find a rental.

I got a roommate from hell threw coffee on my couch woke me up every morning at 7 am had to call police you threw hot coffee on me. Bonnie Shear

You forced me to pick even ine star is to much considering there's no simple way to find my area on your site

Wast of money and time none of the posted wanted roommates are fake / made-up not real I paid for one month membership access , send a dozen of messages for people listed on the site ,did not even got one respond ....this is a scam site/ Service and should be sued as and taken off the Air.

Roommates.com is about as safe as craigslist. And if you run into a scam artist on roommates.com, they will protect the scam artist. They will be incredibly obstructive in anything you or the police try to do. Strongly recommend avoiding this website. It is not safe. And the people who run the website will do nothing to make it safer or assist in criminal investigations.

They charge you to send messages to other people. I paid for a one month subscription and got zero inquiries. I used Roomies.com instead and were able to find three of my current tenants on there. Please don't waste your money on a subscription at Roommates.com! I think some of the accounts are also fake.

DO NOT pay for a 60 day membership, it's not worth it. I had signed up early January (2021) and paid $3 to verify my identity (optional), then paid $30 for a 60-day upgrade to read full profiles and messages. I wish I checked the reviews here first. There weren't enough "perfect matches" available although I live in a large urban city and the room was low rent. I messaged two women and one didn't respond, the other didn't even sign into her account to read it. The women who messaged me tried to get me to email or text them off-site right away and it felt scammy or like they were fake profiles. I also had men message me when my profile said I wanted one female roommate. I ended up finding a roommate from Craigslist on January 19th, so I messaged roommates.com to ask for a refund for February. But they gave a short response and of course my money. It is just bad business to charge for a service that will not be used.

I wish I would have checked the reviews on here before I fell for the scam, wasted my time creating a profile that would attract that perfect roommate for me, then landed on the bad reviews ONCE I PAID to see my messages and still never heard back from a single supposed person looking for a roommate!!! WHAT IS WRONG WITH PEOPLE, why do they have to make a living TAKING OUR MONEY AND SCAMMING US?!!!!!! Don't waste your time and effort.
