Ashley Madison
Reviews and Complaints

I just got my account about two weeks ago, and as soon as I started responding to people my account got locked… 🥹, why!

I too a genuine female was suspended randomly during a lovely conversation . I bring so much traffic through AMAshley madison is a scam they use beautiful women to lure in men to buy credits then they suspend the woman that means the same man will have to spend more to contact you again . Very disgusting people manage this site. They also bully men and threaten them “ we will send letters to your wives homes if you claim back charges” Google it . They are disgusting people and I would urge you ladies to use seeking.com xxxx

Got suspended this morning. 12 hours after I politely said we are not a good match. 7 years with no issues until now. How do I get it back.

I'm a woman who posted a profile and was suspended immediately. The profile was extremely basic, didn't go live - and I didn't even get to post a picture. I did the same thing from another email account, same thing. I never got a chance to turn down anyone:)

Hi,
I’m an AA woman. I’ve only been on AM for less than a month and my account is “temporarily suspended” and I don’t know why. One second I’m replying to someone and the next I’ve been logged out. I’m thinking perhaps I rejected too many men (they were in different countries and continents). I’ve reached out to customer service with no reply.

Why is my account suspended.. just when I was beginning to talk to a hot guy

Lisaly101@gmail.com.. message me let’s chat and get to know each other

Um, you tried to find a "nice girl" on Ashley Madison? Nice girls don't go to websites that specialize in affairs.

How did you go about getting a refund?

It's a scam service I also lost money to Ashley Madison last month, they have fake profiles that send bot messages and the ones who are real are professionals they aren't really interested in anything but probably getting paid by AM to chat.

Yes, AshleyMadison is just a scam. I asked for a refund on the basis of so many fake profiles, where you could do a reverse look-up of their posted images via tineye and see that they were ripped off from porn and other sites.

I see that someone tried to get a class action suit against them going a couple of years back, but looks like it never happened. I would readily join the suit!

AshleyMadison.com the online dating website for cheaters has been cheating its members for many years. They have employed numerous techniques to milk their customers of money, including but not limited to the following: Employing fake female profiles to get people to join and pay. Employing employees who are “hostesses” (i.e., fake profiles) on the website to communicate with members, thus getting them to pay.
Anyone in the US who is or was an AshleyMadison.com customer, who is interested in joining in a class action lawsuit against Avid Life Media — for online fraud. Please contact me with your name and phone number, at:

I agree with you man! AshleyMadison is full of FAKE profiles. Women who contact you, add you to their favorites(after already seeing your pictures), and send you a wink. This is nothing but bait for you to use your credits. I even had a "BOT" who asked for my yahoo messenger ID, and then it sent me one generic message. Anyone who is reading this DO NOT PURCHASE CREDITS on this site. It is a clear scam. If you don't believe me, before you buy, look at "who's online" no matter what time of day. You will find there are married women out there who apparently never sleep, and have this site open 24 hours a day. Now reason tends to make me believe that someone who wants to be discreet couldn't possibly be logged in this much.

Brenda Honey, this guy does'nt need a P.O.Box, He needs to Check Out his pkg.& If his Wife does'nt want it, Then maybe it's too disgusting for anybody to want it! Andy, Why would you expect Real Or Normal Females to respond to your request for sex? What would they want some Cheater like you for? Whats in it for them other than a paycheck? If your pkg. was still All that wonderful your Wife would still be "Enjoying" it.How do you blame them because you wanted to cheat on your Wife?, Which is How You Found their Website & Just Because They were there did'nt mean you had to sign up for their services.Cheaters Should be caught & they should send your refund check to your Wife so she can put that check towards her fees for her Divorce Atty.

My account was just locked and suspended! This is stupid. How are we suppose to talk to someone outside of that app?! I will own up to where I sent the guy my Kik name but not even after a few hrs, my account is suspended! Me and this guy had a good connection and now I won’t be able to talk to him again. Never joining that site again.

yes well this is a serious problem, and Not sure if it is the Men on AM feeling rejected and making complaints and false claims, ? But I think it should be illegal Gor AM to temporarily suspend a Womens acc, if that is the case UGH, I see mostly Women having this problem, it may be free for us to put a profile on, BUT, WE make money for AM, at least for a little time, until we are asked to five another way of contact because of lengthy chats to get to know one another, and we still chat with many more, so don't tell us we are not nakeing money for You, You need to find more qualified people to run this site, as We will ALLL give up on this site, and get together to find someone to open a better dating site for nCHEATERS hmmmmm we are all very upset!

Every time you initiate contact it costs you AM "credits". And if an account is suspended and then restored, it costs credits to initiate contact again with people you were already talking to. This is simply AM depleting your credits so you have to buy more.

hi my name is David massengillI've been a customer of actually Madison's for about a month now I upgraded the other night to buy tokens and the next day I tried to get on a couple days later a few days later I'll try to get back on and it wouldn't let me since I've been locked out and I just paid that's BS please help me get back on my site David Massengill username I mean email David massengill061@gmail.com please hurry thank you

First, Martin and Cole can go blow themselves. If I led the pathetic, boring lives with undoubtedly fridged wives I'd be inclined to put a gun in my mouth. Climb into a time machine and go back to a 19th century Puritan community. Second, many of the profiles are incredibly false and misleading. Take first and foremost the obvious "plants", those with the glamour shots pictures who'd have no problem getting laid simply by walking out their front doors. But now it appears they've advanced their gimmicks to make you spend points. Twice now I've contacted ladies (on my dime, of course) who appeared legitimate and local, only to have their locations magically change after a couple emails to several hundred miles away. I'd like to think this is an AM scam and that they have no idea, but who knows? If they wonder why a guy several states away is contacting them, it's because for a few days they were listed as just around the corner to, it appears, contact them and waste those points. If their profile seems too good to be true, it's probably not true.

Ashley Madison have the worst and most devious Customer Service of any company I've ever dealt with. When you question a payment with them they virtually threaten to reveal your membership of their site by sending a statement to your home address. This is patently designed to put people complaining. Not to mention that their advertising statements are spurious. The male:female numbers they claim are false in that a vast majority of their female profiles are faked by the company. They use every nefarious marketing trick in the book to extract maximum dollar from the mugs who sign up. Automatic re-billing, fake messages etc. The Ashley Madison operation is one big scam.

Exactly what I was going to say, Allan. Sounds like instant karma.

quit cheating on your spouse and you will have no worries...

After seeing one of the much hyped Ashley Madison ads on TV and an interview with their CEO, Noel Biderman, I signed up out of curiosity. Like so many other guys I've since read about, I was pleasantly surprised to be immediately contacted by a likely sounding local lady and enticed into buying one of their exorbitant credit packages in order to speak to her. After she'd ensured I'd all but used up my credits in conversation with her, she went silent.

I now know that she was probably a fake, sat in their offices in Canada thousands of miles away from me, employed by AM to reel in suckers like me. They even as much as admit to the practice in miniscule print in their Terms & Conditions where these ladies are described as 'online hosts' who are engaged in 'marketing activity'. They also automatically re-bill you unless you go through a deliberately difficult and convoluted process to extricate yourself from their clutches.

So my question is, what's the difference between Ashley Madison’s nefarious ‘marketing activity’ and a Nigerian scamming operation? The answer - not a lot! As in the African scams, the sole purpose of these online hosts is to persuade men to spend their money by pretending to be something and someone they're not.

Of course Ashley Madison calculate that no-one will run squealing to the authorities or law courts because of the illicit nature of the site's activity. Some might say 'it serves you right'. Certainly I should have been alerted by the fact that the majority of 'women' on the site have publicly viewable photos. It is now obvious to me that any real ladies on an affairs/adultery dating site would not post a picture of themselves for all to view.

The Ashley Madison operation is little more than a slick and convincing swindle to part men with their money. The chances of actually meeting a real woman with whom you might actually conduct an affair are about as remote as the hair growing back on their CEO's balding head!

I have received numerous of emails from this Ashley madison site, basically says I have a profile, never set one, never heard of the site either. Now my wife has seen these emails and believes I'm into adultery or summit, my life maybe ruined due to this scam. Thanks alot Ashley Madison.com. This is infringement on data protection, I will seek legal action, this cannot go on any more, people lives are going to suffer. I'm well pissed off, and I hope you suffer.

Cann, your are so right! The spread of disease has increased since the development of these web sites. Whereas years ago you might see someone have an affair with one person, these sites make it possible to go from one to the other. Many having so many sex partners they can't keep count. A good article on the Ethicsscoreboard goes into how one girl slept with over 14 married men. And how many have they slept with? Than they bring it home to their unsuspecting spouse. That is how disease is spread...the guy above must be a total idiot.

AM is a scam. Many of the postings are questionable. I had a pop up window that I thought I was rejecting, but got my CC charged for $259 for 1000 credits. AM would not respond to me in any way, A phone call to customer service resulted in me being cut off as soon as I raised the question. I can afford the money, I will not have to worry about paying the rent or anything. As soon as I got the 100 credits I got contacted by several women out of nowhere, and that too got nowhere. There is a good case for AM manipulating their clients to stay on the site and give them money. I recommend you not use a CC. I cancelled my CC after the incident above.

Ashley Madison worked for me, and is still working. Don't be an idiot, come off as desperate or pathetic, and don't treat the women like [censored]s, and it may work for you. There are clearly fake profiles, but as long as you pay attention you can spot them, and avoid falling into the traps. In fact, there is a menu setting which prevents them from contacting you. I have been on for 2-3 months, and have met several attractive, fit, and nice women who were very happy to meet a guy who wasn't an idiot or pig. Be patient, write a respectful, and detailed profile, post a picture, and don't assume you will get laid the day you sign up. On the other hand, keep doing what you're doing, because you knuckedraggers are making me look like like a superstar.

Ashley Madison is the worst site ever! I had an account there for some time now. I tried to upload a abstract picture to have as a profile pic. I guess some how they got so offended that they deleted my account. Still had them stupid credits left too. They didnt even give me the courtesy of an email, just hit the delete button! All over a innocent abstract picture. There such a horrible site, no customer satisfaction what so ever. All they care about is "give us your money" and who cares about the quality of the site. Fake profiles every where, yet they delete a REAL PERSON!? What gives? Ashley Madison is a pipe dream, the site is set up so horribly you cant even give feed back to bad or fake members. So how are you to weed out hundreds of fake profiles? They dont care, just send your money and shut up, is the attitude you get from them. Funny thing is, im glad they deleted my account. Life is short, save your money!

There's apparently a $19 fee to delete an AM profile. That's obsurd in of itself.

Do Not Feed The Trolls. You see "cann" is a troll, "a troll is someone who posts inflammatory, extraneous, or off-topic messages in an online community, such as an online discussion forum, chat room, or blog, with the primary intent of provoking other users into a desired emotional response[1] or of otherwise disrupting normal on-topic discussion"

Are you a victim of fraud? Tell us your story, email amfraud11@gmail.com

I have been an Ashley Madison user for several years. I believe the site is vastly different today than it was five years ago. Five years ago I was able to find affairs. I must've had about five or six affairs through Ashley Madison. And things seem to change. The price for joining increased drastically and I seemed to be getting less and less responses. I started getting a lot of collect responses which required me to use my points. When my points were all used up, the collect responses seem to increase. I paid it no mind originally because of my initial success with the site. A couple years ago I stop responding to the collect responses. Then in a strange thing started to happen. I would get responses and would have to use my points to initiate conversations. I would always immediately send them to a private e-mail address. And for the most part I would never hear from them again. About a year ago I started getting responses that would go so far as to set up an initial date. Of those that set up an initial date, half would not show up. I eventually had three of these dates to show up for a meeting in a public place. The meetings went very well. They were light and lively and seem to be heading in the right direction. However within 24 hours I would receive the dreaded " we don't have a connection" e-mail.

I no longer believe that there are women on the site that are actually looking for affairs. There may be but none of them seem to be interested in me anymore. But I believe that the actual evolution of the site has been to become a fee generator from horny men than an actual clearinghouse for relationships. I believe the women are being paid to get guys to use up their credits and buy more. This is very sad. I don't see any validation or justification for my actions. I have my reasons and initially found many women who also had the same reasons for seeking relationships through such a site. But I know that there are still women out there who have the same needs but they are being crowded out of sites like Ashley Madison by the fee generators in my opinion. I no longer respond to collect responders. As soon as I use up all of the points I have now I will not buy any more. There may be a chance in the last 15 and 20 times I have available to use my points I may find someone again however the odds are against it. Ashley Madison was once a very good idea. It has succumbed to commercial pressures which leaves us who are legitimately seeking relationships to find someplace else to go. Farewell Ashley Madison. I appreciate what you did five years ago but the idea has now become corrupted and I doubt there exists a site that does what you did initially anymore.

To the woman who was on ashley madison and got accused. My husband says ashley madison website fishes for information and set up an account on his behalf without his knowledge. The account is not active but he swears that the account was not created by himself. The account has is name, height, weight, says hes a lonely daddy, and thats it. Would anyone believe this story he is telling me? Do they fish for info? I have been on the internet for over fifteen years and I have never had my information added to an account. Granted spam yes, but not accounts created. Anyone?

My account was suspended and I can't figure out why. I read the terms and conditions and didn't violate any of them. I've filed 2 appeals but I'm pretty certain they go into a black hole. Now I can't even get in to delete my account. Don't pay for this site!

Overpriced and full of scammers

I made, and was charged $77.99 for this service. But then charged an additional $59.99 on top of the $77.99. I would like to know exactly why, and have the $59.99 charge credited BACK TO MY BACK ACCOUNT.

I tried rebooting my iPhone- no luck.

I tried to open it sis App Store - still a black screen.

I can’t afford to loose the data on the site.

Please help.

its a good website, I sigh up and my profile have not been approved and it’s over 48hours

Please my account has been temporarily suspended. And I do not know what I did. May be its a mistake. I created the account yesterday and I do not know much about this site. Please review my complain and activate my account for me. I do want to enjoy this site too.

I paid for the service and everyone that I have came across is fake or selling services. You get winks but no conversations other then a service for massage or talking for money.

I wish i could have my account unsuspended because I'm a new member just this morning and never had any conversations yet to be suspended
