Signed up, they charged my credit card. Then ThaiCupid "suspended" me before I could talk to anyone. They claimed I was suspended because I was "suspicious" and demanded I send a photo ID and my credit card. I l blacked out the information requested and never heard from them again - even though they claim they would contact me by email in 48 hours. I emailed them, nothing.
I have referred the charge to my bank as a fraudulent charge. My account is still "suspended" 15 days later. Complete denial of service for no reasonable reason, and charged for no service. Criminal.
With 24 hours, received 171 messages from women of all ages, including women outside the filters I had set. The first three messages I replied to -- the best looking first, of course -- all pushed to exchange email addresses. Immediately upon receiving their emails, they wanted to move over to a different dating app (with another fee, of course). I guess some folks (not necessarily women) make money from those third party sites by luring men over. Fourth woman I interacted with turned out to be fake, too. But only after telling me the camera and microphone on her phone was broken (which is why we couldn't interact in real time) and then asking for a "loan" because her employer was late paying her.
Unfortunately, filled with scammers and fake photos. Vast majority of them cant speak English. So very hard to communicate. Please dont wast your money is the simple advice I can give you! I forgot to uncheck the auto renewal and the renewal went through so I have been on it for 4 months and connected with no one - not a single genuine girl.
This site deserves a higher rating. It is certainly possible to find nice authentic Thai women for chat and dating.
Like similar lower cost sites, profile verification is not that great. There are many fakes sending you messages. Consider these main rules and you will avoid, pretty much, all of them. Don't get tempted:
- New profiles who contact you direct are likely fake
- Profiles with only one photo are likely fake
- Profiles sending contact info right away are likely fake
I had a problem with multiple charges for my membership. The company did not reply to my request.
I suspect there are some bots that solicit casual visitors to buy paid memberships.
I met The Perfect Partner within a few days of registering. So I stand grateful to Cupid Media.
Thai cupid pulls male customers in by initially sending likes and messages from pretty women. However, it seems they actually use some paid Internet Models, who at some point encourage you to join other web sites to gain more access to them. They also seem to use different women or bots at different times to manage a single profile, so the person who you may be chatting with, may not even be a human. I would guess that the profiles are a combination of paid internet models; random Thai women, who may not be aware their dating profiles are on Thai Cupid; some paid actors in a call center like setup; This site is the biggest scam ever, so save your time and money, do not sign-up for a paidmembership. They are getting rich from scamming lonely western men.
I heard some good and bad reviews so I decided to try it out myself but the worst turned out to be true. Not a single profile interested in me responded as well as almost getting scammed by several profiles. Luckily I didn't lose any money but as a warning to every man out there, your odds are better off elsewhere. Please AVOID. You all have been warned...
At the beginning I was naive a bit. Here is my story:
1. If you are new on the page, you get a huge response. You think - perfect, finaly the right site for me. 2. You chat with many "girls", so that they (guys) learn, what are your dreams. 3. They create a fake girl, who is almost a perfect match for you. They send you pictures, chat with you, you are 1 - 2 days happy, finally the right lady! Even a video call is possible! She cannot speak English during the video call. 4. She can write English, sometimes poorly, sometimes almost perfectly (?!?). 5. Latest at this moment you wake up a bit. 6. She needs money 7. Your brain starts to work again and you stop the whole madness. Happy marriage!
In reality, this site provides a very good service for little money. 5 stars. Nothing to complain about. So, be careful. It is up to you. I continue to use this site and I am a satisfied customer (except for the initial bad experience).

I been subscribing for free for about a week
In 2 days I received about 25 likes and probably over 40 messages from girls... it never appended to me even in the free sites. I ended up chatting with a scammer that it would never do a video chat
This is supposed to be a premier established thai site which is why I joined.
The joining process is overly complicated and the support from the site owners is virtually non-existant too.
And you can do nothing much at all without first upgrading - that's disappointing and a very-1970s style approach.
After a few weeks of pointless activity, I deleted the account. The entire experience filled me with the feeling it's a money-grabbing enterprise and nothing more.
Answer: Yes, all dating site automatically renew, which is not good and no where they tell you that. As soon as you pay the bill for one month or 3 months go back to billing in your profile and trun off auto billing pay. Because even if you do not use the site after a month or whever you paid you will be charged.
