I searched 50 - 70 age - mostly non paying members - 97% my guess. You don't see who is online. Not a single response to a flirt. My take - stay away from this site. Show details
Very few people. Most accounts are not in use, they removed the ability to see how active anybody is. Policy dictates refunds if requested within 3 days of charge, they average 10 days to reply to any contact. Borderline scam site. Avoid.
DISPLEASURE – I joined this site to find a friend with benefits[relationship] I have noticed this site is the same as MatureSpace.com, A TOTAL CON. Both sites drag things and when it comes to hook up 4GETit, As for Aussieflingfinder.com no different they tend to drag things out and make you if gullible pay more and kept hanging, I have had 2 use the same… Read more

More Fun Than a Barrel of Monkeys ! – I met my ex wife of 12 years in the then personal columns of the local newspaper. So I know the potential for committed relationships in paths like this is pretty high. Then statistically apparently, a massive 25% of serious relationships worldwide are supposed to have started with online dating. That said, if you're expecting a real life… Read more
"You've got mail" or a "Sleepless in Seattle" scenario, you may be cruising for a bruising.
I am now a member of 5 (mostly dodgy in various ways) dating sites and I'm here to tell you that relatively speaking, FlingFinder is free (no, really free) online dating with old school integrity and more fun than a barrel of monkeys. The members are friendly, open and unashamedly candid. And the potential's huge.
So why have I given the site 3 and not 5 stars? Because sadly, there are not enough members to allow you to play the numbers game effectively. So come on you people reading this, register now and this platform could be a swingin', hot to trot, all night every day "hoot n nanny".
It's what you make of it – have been using this site for about 12 months now, and the first thing I noticed was the vast difference between full and trial membership for men, trial membership for men is very limited whereas once you have become a financial member all options open up. Having said that, I did manage to meet two very wonderful women, both of which I am still… Read more
very good friends with, before coughing up a cent to the site, so there still are options there.
One of the most underused functions of the site is the blogs. It is a very good way to put yourself out there to be noticed (and even have the girls chasing you for a change), vent your frustrations, share your joys, write a story, or just generate some pointless philosophical discussion.
The chatrooms can vary from being almost over-crowded to being totally devoid of life and everything in between. So it can be a bit of a hit-or-miss feature of the site. Although a bit limited in it's available emoticons, the rest of the functions are quite useful, from being able to block undesirables to choosing who can view ur webcam and the whisper function that allows you to send more personal or sensitive messages to a particular member without having to broadcast it.
One of the members does run a music trivia night occasionally, and there are regular meet-and-greet nights organised in major cities throughout the year. These things are actually run and organised by actual members and not the admin staff, which I think exemplifies this site, there is no feeling of "big brother" watching over you and telling you what to do, what you do or say is totally up to you. :) Tight-knit community. Regular meet and greets organised. Respect and safety for women is promoted. Blogs Close-knit community - if you're outside that community or you have different ideas you can be outed fairly quickly.
This is the most real site I have ever come across – Since joining Fling my life has changed. I have met people that have become lovers, friends, and confidantes... I am truly surprised that my life existed without Fingfinder. I have met the most wonderful people and con honestly say that I would never have found my true best friend without it. Not only is Fling the best site for true and real… Read more
relationships.. it offers people a way into the world of real and live relationships across the net in an international scene. I have met some beautiful people that would have remained outside my life if I hadn't dived in and taken on board all that fling has to offer. Thank you. To all the Admin staff and to the owners and developers... I am truly grateful. I met a beautiful and truly sincere person here... And not just one, but many. Thank you again. Just keep doing what you do best. Bringing people together... The site offers sincere and genuine relationships.. whether they are platonic or otherwise... Nothing... apart from the idiots that choose to try and and exploit it

Tonytoyou Show details
Top adult site – Was recommended by a friend, glad I joined as I've made so many friend's all over the country and have actually met a few in person. This site does not use Bots, and there is no pressure to pay to become a member, you are free to stay as a trial member for as.long as you like. Great site , highly recommend it Show details
A great site with real people – Unlike other sites, there are no fakes, just real people. I've met many people and made some fabulous friends over the years and I'm so glad to have found it! Admin are quick to sort out any issues, very helpful and professional. Show details
Negative reviews
Not sure if all the profiles are real – I have sent probably 200 messages to 200 different women, some I live only single digit K’s from, I match what they want down to my age, build, hair and eye colour , sexual preferences , I have photos on my profile and I have yet to receive a single reply. I’m not fat, bald or old, or a serial killer and I find the odds of not even receiving a,… Read more
“Thanks, I’m not interested” reply to be quite astronomical. In fact the only TWO messages I got were from women in a different state, who I didn’t contact and when I questioned the motives of one who I suspected works for flingfinder, the message stream was deleted. I find this highly suspicious. Has anyone actually sent a message to someone and had a discreet sexual encounter with that person?
Easy to use but costly – Disappointing. It’s now you have to pay for the premium service otherwise its a waste of time of even being on there at all as everything is restricted without paying .That never use to be the case . I suggest if you want to pay for everything then look for another site . Show details
They damn well do use robots. I’ve tested it – They do use robots- fake profiles. I’ve tested it. These sites should be brought to account for there false profiles, Wasting people’s time and efforts when trying to find a partner Show details

Stay Away from this Scam Site if You Are Smart – The dodgies took my money then after sending ten messages to different ladies, not one reply. I suspect these ladies live overseas and receive a fee for posting their photos and raunchy messages online to get you in. The people that run this site are scoundrels' and scammers. Stay away from it. Keep your money. Show details
Flingfinder is a Total Con – I signed up for this site in the hope of finding an affair. Out of all the profiles in W.A. only 12 profiles in the whole state are regular sign in’s, none of which are in my vicinity. In fact closest is 80kms away. I messaged 12 profiles and didn’t even get a response. One profile did respond wanting to chat and the profile was deleted before I… Read more
had a chance to respond in less than 5mins. Very suspicious, I suspect it was site admin generated. So bottom line guys is don’t waste your hard earned cash and try an Escort, at least that way you’re on a sure thing.
Some profiles are bots, some real, buggy and needs more active users – There are definitely fake profiles, as they automatically respond to likes within milliseconds, this can be tested over and over again with same profile! There are a couple of real people who are recently active (like 4), but the owner needs to do more to attract people the site (maybe make it cheaper??), and fix the bugs like messages not… Read more
actually showing in the inbox, currently you don't know you have a message unless you go to someone's profile to check. Basically not worth paying for until the owner stops trying to suck people in and actually make the site attractive to real people.
Thanks for your feedback but we absolutely do… Read more
A total scam and a rip-off – The site is poorly run, fully of non-existent people and dodgy profiles. I can't believe I was so stupid to have joined the site. Even reporting 'girls' that want payment for 'service' one would think the site would delete, people claiming to live in Australia but in fact are in Manila are great for business. Show details

A big waste of money!!! – As a member I think this website, like all the others of this type are run by some dude in a rat infested basement out of Manila. The profiles on this website are “real” but the person who posted them are long gone and haven’t logged on for months or years . The unsuspecting member sees these and thinks they can contact these people, they then… Read more
get flirty messages and sexy talk thinking it is from the person in the profile, however it is the site owner they are talking to. Donn’t waste your money . These sites try to appeal to people’s desires and hopes but never deliver only to take as much money as possible. This site says there is NO scammers on there but it turns out the site owners are the ones scamming, all these websites are the same , NO exceptions.
“Legitimate” flirt / hookup sites don’t exist.

Non active user – I am no longer very active on this site but have met admin and several other users at meet and greet events in Sydney,Melbourne and brisbane. I know for a fact admin will remove bogus or scam profiles as soon as they are made aware of them.have a couple of pleasant meets through the site. Most profiles are real but remember guys, while the girls… Read more
are upfront about what they like they still expect to be treated as LADIES, also most girls seem to get hundreds of messages so very picky about responding.
No women in all wa respond to anything – There are possibly and I stress.. possibly one or two actual live profiles in WA that react in any way to contact over a month. Search in a broad range of categories met with one response only ... not any semblance of value for money expended. When I cancelled my status as an ongoing payer but wanted to use the remainder of my credit time the… Read more
whole account was removed immediately. I did my account alteration in a timely manner and despite that the site announced I was being billed a further month. I contacted my bank immediately.
Will refer to ombudsman and appropriations law authority if any further issues in breach of contract or identity anomalies develop.

Flingfinder complete rip off – Flingfinder is just another fake rip off hook up site when you use the search it looks as if 80% of members have realised they have been conned and have left or the profiles are fake. Sent heaps of messages and friend request and not a single answer looked into the reviews of this site and what do you know bad negative comments. Don't waste your… Read more

One of the Better sites – I've only been on the site for a few weeks, there are real people here, I don't say all the profiles are real but out of all the sites I have found this to be one of the better ones & not just trying to get you to spend more Show reply
Fake profiles – fake multiple profiles, all you need are multiple email addresses and any one can make 10 20 30 or even 40 fake profiles just take pictures of someone in the street upload them & fling finder claims no fake profiles.
Hi Peter. Although it is technically possible… Read more
Hardly any profiles – Shocking site, very few profiles; it shouldn't be allowed to operate and take money. In NSW there were about ten active profiles = unbelievable.
Any body can make multiple profiles – All you need for this site is a valid email address, whats stopping someone from making multiple profiles with different email addresses, Answer... Nothing..."I had a paid membership & cancelled it after a week when I realised the 5 profiles I was sending messages to was the same person. all had different profile pics. in different states, but it… Read more
was one person who had created multiple profiles. All any one needs to do is take a picture of a person in the street without them knowing then load that picture on to the site. the chances of that person seeing their pic on fling finder is slim. just change the state with different postcodes, its as simple as that...Theres nothing stopping any one from doing it. So Fling finder saying there are no fake profiles is a load of crap. The other thing is for paid membership you have to go thru Pay Pal the site dosent have their own card facilities.
Some real profiles but simply not enough to stand a chance for a hook up – Signed-up for a paid account for three months, reached out to over 150 persons but it seems to me that the girls willing to send you a picture or open up the profile for reviewing all the pictures are really struggling to get someone in real life due to their looks. Out of the 150 + contacts initiated, maybe a little less than 10 replied to my initial hello / request for more communication. Cancellation process was easy.
One of the best, and I've tried them all. Does require a bit of effort if you're a guy – I've been a member of FF for years precisely because it is so genuine. In all that time I've found only one fake profile, and it was removed by admin within minutes of me reporting it. So have I met many women on FF? Absolutely, but it takes a bit of effort. I spend time in the chat room getting to know the other members (which I enjoy anyway)… Read more
and send a LOT of messages. Also be prepared to add some photos to your profile if you want any action. I see members complaining that they don't get any responses when they have no photos and about 2 lines of text in their profile. Seriously, how do they think it works - women just pic guys at random??
This isn't the biggest dating site out there (I hope it grows a lot bigger - then it's an easy 5 stars) but it's a lot of fun and the woman are genuine.
SCAM – This is just another scam site, fake profiles, fake pics, and all the good reviews are scams and fraud, don't waste your money and time, this is a scam site.
Doubts about some profiles – I am a current member who can see the pros and cons of this site. The one issue is the males have to pay for subscription which includes access to the chatroom where as a female can be a trial member can still accee it without paying. Maybe to attract females that's the only way. The chatrooms are hardly ever used or has a lack of numbers in it. … Read more
The previous reviewer is spot on in regards to the chatrooms. But it is split into 3 sections including a adult room for terms of sex and the like. Some profiles either don't get used anymore or are fakes. You do meet people but most are from interstate. Never met a local which is also a negative.
Can be good with improvement but better then some others that are around.
Too many rules for an adult dating site – As the title states to many rules for a online dating site. Expensive, no wonder people have left. Used to be a member. Can say I've met more people, after leaving the site. Chat room was full of boring people who liked to talk about the weather. There was never any sex. Far to many clique groups. I can see this site going down hill very quickly
Waste of time even the reviews are questionable – Signed up to see if this site was different, sent out loads of winks and have heard nothing......thought I'd check out the reviews and it's amazing all the negatives are as you'd expect written by real people, the positives are well to polished in the way they are written Almost as if they were written by the 'amazing ' admin staff.... Q: if I'm on a dating site do I need to be constantly talking to admin ?
Many fake profiles – Despite the site claiming that there are no fake profiles, there are. Enough that just flicking through a few pages of profiles and you'll start to see the same pictures recurring, only that the profiles associated with the pictures will have completely different details. When I noticed this, I put a complaint in with Paypal stating that the… Read more
product was not as it claimed. Oodlum Pty Ltd, the parent company, responded saying there's no fake profiles, but immediately deleted my account.
There's almost no users on this site.
