The site is actually pretty decent. The layout is simple, similar to the old AIM chat layout except for housing. The message center is easy to navigate and send to any potential person you saved.

The customer service was super fast and fixed all the problems they said they would. This was by far the cheapest scam site to say the least.

But the listings....so far have all come up as bogus elaborate fakes, at least the enticing ones with photos and actual descriptions. There seem to be a overwhelming number of women potentials that are all surprisingly good looking or decent. But some are outrageously fake. No way some biking model is making enough money for a 4000/month house and with those bogus lame details.

The biggest redundant scam I saw was the "i'm moving from out of state I need a place by _date" All in copy and paste format with a few details modified. I actually wasted my time sending a email to some. Some subsequently went offline or deactivated soon there after.

Also the site blocks you from putting a number or email account. So basically you are left to only using there site email system or putting your information in code (ex. tothemax at g mail) and hoping that prompts some type of reply. But in all cases I got zero replies back from anyone male or female, in my price range or otherwise.

So either no one is checking this site after coming to conclusion it doesn't work, or the contacting system doesn't work. Or at the very least everyone around me are assholes and don't even have the decency to reply and say they aren't interested. The later which i'm total fine with.

In summary, I would not recommend Roommates.com to a friend.
