I'm fond of using those social networking sites like facebook, twitter, friendster etc. and then meeting, hooking up with those people I met online. Way back several months ago I decided to try and have two accounts from adult friend finder then just decided to cancel it due to it's fees. Apparently Adult Friend Finder is still charging my credit card long after I'd cancelled my account with them?? I filed fraud charges with my credit card company. For several months they continued to charge my account, and each month I filed to get credit back it keeps on going on, now I have to cancel my card and be issued a new one as advised my bank or AFF will keep charging me whether I cancel with them or not. Now, I don't know who to trust. I've found out that a good indicator that you're dealing with a ripoff is when you complete the transaction but no receipt of the charges is sent to your email.

    They got with those recurring charges as well and every additional upsell was an additional recurring charge.  I finally got fed up and canceled the service.

    you have to print out the t.O.s. and ask a lawyer- and that an organization has a .org site does not mean they are no cheaters! i paid money for usafis.org, nothing and no green card for the u.s. was ever in my mail, but they keep calling you and ask for more like book an english lessen at natively.org. last time the called me on the phone i said no and the conversation was over.
    theres too much [***] on the internet.

    They are the most lying, manipulative, cheaters on the planet. The contacts I have made with ANYONE on the site had in common key words, like "age is just a number to me" among others. All at some point asked for money, or airline tickets to "come and meet you" that can be cashed in for cash. I also soon realized most ip addresses were from Sunnyvale, CA, EVEN IF YOU WERE CONVERSING WITH SOMEONE FROM EUROPE. They will send pics of themselves, actually pics of different models, and will send clean ones, then after intimate conversations will send naked ones, "just for you". So....do this, ask for pics (after they are in love with you) of them holding a "I love so and so" sign. You will notice they can't, you were likely exchanging Email with a man anyway. Make it fun, waste their time.

    You have to go out to the account history site on AFF and there is a place where you can stop the automatic renewal to AFF.  I used to be member and that's how I know about it.  I did meet a lady on there one time, and she just happened to be coming through my state on her way to Az., and we spent the night together, and then we lost touch.  THat's ashame, as she was a older lady, but she did have a great body, and she was very loving.  WIsh I could find her again, as we had talked about spending some weekends together.  Should also mention that she's married, but still a great lover.

    MY EMAIL IS: 3110.au@gmail.com

    They are the most manipulative and cheaters on the net.
    AdultFriendFinder is still charging my credit card for several months after I'd cancelled my account with them?? Just before my three months membership ends on 1/3/2015, i closed my account and went to the place where you can stop the automatic renewal, and turn the auto-renew status to OFF. After that date till now i didn't login or used AdultFriendFinder website once, because i went overseas for work.
    For several months they continued to charge my credit card, total of $384.89 Australian dollar, its around $300 USD as showing below:

    I sent them too many emails to refund my money back, at the end they agree to give back only $73.500 USD.
    And they send me this email:

    Dear Member,
    Thank you for contacting us.
    Unauthorized renewal can only be refunded within 170 days from the date the order was approved. Unfortunately, we are unable to process a refund for the order you are requesting. We apologize for any misunderstanding.

    Thank you,

    My suggestion is to look at your bank statements. Call them 888-575-8383 and tell them how many times you have been charged unauthorized. They will refund you the # of unauthorized charges and cancel it.

    Seriously I still don't know how these [***] could just take money out of my account without my knowledge. Well I'm taking this on with my lawyer and sure they won't get any more money from now on.

    I canceled my membership & payments to AFF about 3 or 4 years ago since then credit card I used expired and I have a new one, somehow AFF have been able to retrieve details of my new card & on the 29/06/17 FFNHELP.com billed my credit account $177.89 , i have contacted them & supplied payment Ref# , date billed , amount etc, but each time they reply to my emails they want more information such as credit card numbers, I can't help but feel this is a scam .. any comments on this issue would be great

    I have just had an unauthorised payment taken from my a/c of 20.00 - i had a 1 month trial membership, realised the site was totally false and cancelled my account (this was at least two months ago). Cancelling the account was a nightmare, with the process, very conveniently, timing out after a few seconds, at the very last 'stage'. This is obviously a con, im going to have to report my bank card as lost in order to get a new one and hope this works. These crooked leeches need to be stopped.
