Account being flaged & deactivated without just cause
Review about Interracial RomanceI have been a member of interracialromance.com on and off. After leaving for a brief period, I decided to return. All was going very well until the site decided to deactivated my account apparently for no apparent reason. The site gave me the following information: Your account has been permanently deactivated.
Reasons for this can be any of the following:
You are not at least 18 years of age.
You provided interracialromance.com with false information as to your identity.
You abused your account (spam, scams, rude messaging, etc).
If you feel your account has been deactivated wrongfully, please contact us through the helpdesk. Sites like these make way too much money to NOT have a direct contact number!
In order to REACH their helpdesk you must submit an email. All of the reasons provided for deactivating my account were unfounded! I decided to chat with Brian. Unfortunately, he couldn't give me a definitive reason why! I was on a 3-day trial basis and asked that they not charged my card because THEY deactivated my account.
Please be careful when dealing with these online companies!
Pros
1. Their 3-day trial basis subscription is reasonable.
2. My 3-day trial money was refunded.
3. You are able to upload unlimited pictures and post some as private.
Cons
1. What they don't tell you is that after their trial period ends, you will be billed twice. Once for $14.47 and another charge for $29.95. Your guess is as good as mine. And you will receive two separate emails. Retain all documentation.
2. Their computer will 'flag' and deactivate your account without just cause.
3. They are entirely too strict. You are not able to view too much of anything without paying for their service.
4. As a paid member, you are NOT able to speak with someone live without chatting or sending an email.
5. If a paying member contacts you (as with most sites) you are not able to reply.
6. Again as with most sites, there are entirely too many fake profiles. I believe companies pay people to set up and monitor 'fake profiles!'
7. These sites are money makers; they take advantage of people desperatly seeking love. It doesn't matter which site you visit, you will witness the same crap!
8. Site is expensive.
Good luck!
