OurTime Reviews

I'm a high-quality 52-year-old male (whose only failing is a lack of resemblance to the love-child of Brad Pitt and George Clooney--now there's an image for you), and I thought this site would be an improvement over "Plentyoffish."

Wrong! While the pay-only format indeed weeds out many time-wasters, the site itself is a waste of time! Their matching algorithm--if there is one--is a sick joke: I live in New England, yet I get flirts from women in California and Virginia? And my search results occasionally turn up a MAN'S profile among the women's ones! Plus, you can't search by deal-breaking criteria like religion, education, body type, and others...

Anyway, most of the worthwhile women on OurTime are also on PoF (and, ladies, I'm sure the same goes for the men); you still have to screen out losers and users, but it's a free service. (I did buy the PoF upgrade, though, because I value the extra features.)

Don't waste your time and money; OurTime's time is over...

I have had my profile hacked twice and got two viruses since paying for this site. Not one single time have I been replied to by customer support and I have tried plenty. Even a couple phone calls did not work. Horrible!

I don't about the women on this site but I don't think the men really want girlfriends. I think they just want to receive flirt messages and window shop. Many of them even ask you to message them but they never even acknowledge that they read your message.

I have joined Seniors Meet.com but most of the time it is OurTime.com

you are right in everything you say, I have been in touch with the support

group, but at the moment am waiting for a reply. If I do not receive one is there any other way I can reach them?? I am now getting POP UPS when I try to get into the site, asking me to let them in "One Time" I am a senior and not up to all this computer "Lingo" I do not understand the POP UP should I let it in or not?? could they get my email address this way?? I want to cancel my subscription but cannot get into the site, every time I try this damn POP UP appears and I am blocked. Any suggestions?? Also not sure what I was RATING I assume it was the dating site and not YOUR site. If it is your site change it to great, because I have learnt a lot. Cannot believe what an idiot I was to believe all this stuff and that people were basically honest when they were advertising these sites and people. Thank you so much for letting me sound off.

I joined Our Time for one month without researching anything about it, and I regretted it the following day. I joined at 9pm and I had porn emails in my email inbox by 9am the following morning! Somehow, my personal email address had been either sold to, or stolen by, porn spammers. I know this for a fact because I have had the same email address for nearly ten years and have never had any spam of any kind sent to it ever until the day after I joined Our Time. It's been two weeks since I joined now, and I get porn spam every other day, which horrifies me because I have a young son at home, and I would not want him to see one those emails by accident on my screen.

Save your money and your privacy! Join eHarmony instead, but if you do join Our Time, at least don't use your real email address unless you want to receive nasty porn spam.

OurTime.com is a pure, rotten filthy website. They have ads on the radio right now and I feel sorry for anyone who works with this company before reading the reviews.

Do not put yourself through the hell of dealing with this company for any reason whatsoever. These people are garbage and the owners should be ashamed of themselves for creating such a terrible, unsustainable and worthless business. When the CEO finds himself looking for a job (I have a feeling this will be sooner rather than later), he might not want to mention his work with OurTime.com.

Poor customer service, completely incompetent people and dumber than dogs.

I am new to Phoenix, saw tons of ads for this site on TV. Decided to try it for "free." But how stupid--you can search on things like height and age, but NOT on religious or political views! Why would I care more about height than values????

The only good news (I think, since I have not checked out my credit cards yet, having joined only a few days ago), my credit card would not go through. 3 perfectly good cards were declined. Now, of course, I am so glad they were--and will be watching my accounts like a hawk to make sure they did not use my info.

I usually am better at due diligence, but I tried this in a moment of boredom, and am taking down my profile as soon as I finish this review.

they are a rip off don't use them

Site has terrible search capability, you will get emails from all kinds of people. Best feature: loads of spam to sell you stuff

Agree with the others. This sites are just there to generate money and that's that. They couldn't careless about us to begin with.

What a rip off. Their search parameters and preference filters do not work properly and when I emailed their customer service about it (twice), I got no response. I emailed and complained again and asked for a refund and, once again, no response. DO NOT waste your money or time on this site. They are the worst of the bunch.

Do I have to give at least one star, they don't even deserve that. It's mostly fake. You get "flirts" from people who won't return an email. Think about it.

I signed up with SeniorPeoplemeet and paid for that dating site, and all of a sudden, I was on ourtime.com. Everything on here is fraudulent and untrue. The profiles of men are terrible, and once you get to email, chat or talk to one, it's all just a pretense of a man. Besides, why are they all from 5.5 to 5.9 and of catholic religion? Before i knew it, I had paid for 6 months plus taqx or whatver fees there are on top, and I want OUT. Ourtime stinks

I was a member of match, and saw the tickler on my match use to click to see "our time". What I didn't know was, as soon as I clicked there, it created a profile for me without my even ok'ing it at all, it just created it, copying my photos, and profile into Our Time. Since I have not joined ourtime, I cannot say I like it or not, but I gave 1 star because they abused my client privilege and my right to CHOOSE to be a member. That's the same as sending you spam without you consenting to receiving email.

Of course, I am not a member, and I can delete my profile. But my point is, I should have been ASKED before they created a profile for me. Just because I look, doesn't mean I am ready to create a profile while I still have an active match account, which incidentally hasn't done to much for me as usual. It's the same old song and dance, they get your money, and there are few reasonable people of the opposite sex to consider anyone short of mr or ms perfect. The more photos they have of themselves, the more likely they are a serial profile poster. Check it next year, they are still here, they never find anyone to meet their excruciating criteria! LOL. Oh, a tip, whenever you join one of these services, ALWAYS pay with Paypal, then as soon as they get their money, go into the transaction receipt and cancel the billing agreement, then they cannot charge you again without your permission. you can't trust them, I was setup to receive a 6 month match guarantee, and it is supposed to be free, yet they ran a transaction through for 1 cent they were testing to see if my billing agreement was still good. be aware of that for match. If you are going to send 5 emails a month and meet the free 6 months, leave billing agreement active, then as soon as it renews for free, CANCEL the subscription at paypal. With our time, I would cancel as soon as they got a cycle payment.

I too, saw their commercial today. Unlike far too many people who goto the web site and sign up right away, I do my homework first.

I check out the complaints pages and read all the reviews written by people who signed up expecting to find someone they might have a future with, only to discover they've been scammed. I'm not the least bit surprised by what I've read so far. Those who create these sites are experts at putting out enticing ads with lots of flash and glamour.

They're even greater experts at taking your money and holding you at bay when you want to opt out.

I'm 66 now and have come to terms with being single again and have been for almost 12 years. They play upon people's fears of being alone when oft times, it's the best thing for you at that time in your life.

Time to focus your attention on you; your wants, needs and desires. Take up a new hobby, go back to school, find yourself and take time to reconnect with the person you used to be. I'm a firm believer that as long as you leave your heart open to all possibilities, love will always find its way in. You just have to exercise some caution.

So don't let this experience sour you into thinking that you'll never find love again or cause you to, in desperation, to leap before you look when you may have met someone.

Take your time in getting to know each other and, if it's meant to be, you'll know without even having to think about it.

Good luck to all of you.

I just joined and am already regretting it. As mentioned in some of the other reviews, the site is horrible if not impossible to access after joining. They keep saying the wrong user name or password. Trying to get this issue resolved. If not, cancelling account. Definitely will not renew for another month.

I did my profile,set up everything. Started getting all these emails saying I got flirts. They said I got replies from people I never even inquired to. They trying hard to get me to upgrade. I learned my lesson from Christian Mingle. Some of them dress their profile impress. You can't stop people of the same sex from contacting you.

I joined being fully aware that there would need to be some weeding out of contacts and such. What I didn't expect was that the company actually charged me $81.93 for a $12.99 membership. The transaction was declined because I don't keep much money in my checking account. I was a bit surprised since I knew there was enough to cover the 6 month fee that I had agreed to. But, I had no idea they were helping themselves to my account. I apparently am not the only one to have had this issue with them.

I've only been on this site for 3 days, and I'm already regretting it. Fortunately, I only signed up for one month.

They allow people from every State to view your profile, and 99% of the people contacting me live in another State. My in-box has been bombarded with notifications, flirts, likes etc. I have to go in 2 times a day just to clean out the "junk mail". I contacted Customer Service, and they told me they don't have any way to limit viewings to people who live in the State you live in, nor do they have any way to limit viewings to people within a certain mileage of the City you live in. If you want to be "exposed" to everybody in the USA, then fine ... but I don't want this. I never would have signed up if I had known about these limitations. Long distance relationships have never worked for me, and I'm certainly not willing to give it another try in my golden years.

Another problem is that I feel like I'm being cyber-stalked. I often get 5-6 messages from the same person on the same day (and multiple persons on the same day), with each message being "more urgent" than the previous one. It's really weirding me out.

I'm going to keep my profile available for maybe another week, and that's only because I did make 2 possible connections with local members.

I have been on your site for weeks now and only people try to contact me are from out of state and most often than not a scam of some sort.Yuo peole should screen people more affectivly ! I will NOT renew my membership!!!!!!!
