This review was chosen algorithmically as the most valued customer feedback.

SugarDaddyForMe.com is a dating site that promises to match up successfull and wealthy individuals. However, once they have your credit card there is no going back. It is run by Russian individuals who do no respond to emails and there is no phone contanct. Cancelling your account is not an option. They continued to bill me for several months after I emailed them to cancel. Furthermore several fraudulent electronics purchases were made with my card after I signed up with them. I'm a security aware indididual and have never experienced idnentity theft after years of online shopping. However, weeks after signing up with sugardaddyforme.com my cc was being used by fraudster all of the net. It's just speculation that the sell your credit card information, but it's fact that their customer service does not exist and THEY WILL FRAUDULENTLY BILL YOU EVEN IF YOU TRY TO CANCEL.

Some of these statements and complaints are completely ludicrous. I direct the customer service department for SD4Me. We are surely not Russians or any type of foreigners. When you sign up for the site you are told very boldly that if you join for the monthly membership it is recurring and auto billed each month until you cancel with customer service. We answer all emails within 48 hours. When you join using a 3 day trial you can cancel yourself and not incur any billing as long as you cancel within your 3 day trial. If you truly have an issue, then in stead of posting it on the internet as half of this is not even close to true. Why not try using our customer service it is why we are there email support or live chat support or call us! Free speech is sometimes abused and it is my suggestion that you always read everything before you agree to something. We are very straight forward about the auto rebill and you must actually show that you have read it before you continue on the site. So it is not fraudulent charges it is an agreement that you made with the site when creating an account. If you feel that you have not been helped and need further assistance you can contact me via customer service and I will be happy to personally assist you.

Thanks

I never called any of you or anyone else Russians & don't have a clue what you are talking about and also I do not want any kind of membership to this service or any other service or site if it costs any money so you can cancel my membership as of now if that is the case. Thank you. June 29, 2009.

Kasaundra, no disrespect, however I was fraudently billed and it is next to impossible to get a reply back from any emails that are sent to Sugardaddyforme.com. I have found no live chat or published contact number for this site so how would you suppose that someone would be able to actually speak to an agent.

Thanks, Cindy

I joined sugardaddyforme.com one night because I was not allowed to browse photo's unless registered, I had no real intentions of using the website thou, after receiving about 50 messages I noticed a '3 days free access' banner on the website so thought I would register to reply to the messages I had received. for some reason after I joined only one of them replied to me... I do believe most of the profiles they have are generated by the administration for advertisement purposes.
When I joined I had to give CC details, fair enough as that is age verification and I had no problem with that!
12 hours after signing up I decided to cancel, I emailed cs@sugardaddyforme.com to ask they delete my profile and cancel the membership
They emailed me 6 days later to say sorry blah blah and stole $80NZ from my credit card.
They offered a free extra months membership and no further payments but I politely replied no thanks and asked them to delete my profile. They have since ignored several requests to delete.
I then changed my profile to say how they had scammed me and wouldn't delete my profile. The checked and refused the change but still will not delete my profile.
I first took the three day trial on 23/sept/09 and it was that same day I requested the cancellation. They emailed me on 29/sept with there free month trial, I declined same day and have sent atleast 15 email and website requests for them to delete my account and now they are just ignoring all my correspondence. it is now 03/11/09
This is a very poorly managed scam site. I have a local lawyer reviewing my situation and if he believes there is a case for me to take to the US (or where ever the site admin are from) then I will be, money is not an issue for me, this is purely about creating as much attention towards scammers as possible.

Whiteout words on picture are profanity :-)

It appears that pic didn't upload, will try one more time, if it doesn't work this is a copy of it, it is a screen shot of the sd website profile page of mine where I changed it and they refused the changes but still will not delete my profile. I will also add that I cancelled my CC yesterday once I started to realize this website is a scam.

"About Me:
Trying to get my account removed from this ******* SCAM website, I know you have read this so delete my ******* profile.
I have also started saving webpages of interest so have got copies of everything as well...

What I'm Looking For
I am trying to get my profile deleted from this SCAM website but have had no luck at present so do not message me as I will not reply"

I have also been fraudulently charged by this website. They didn't respond to emails until the next billing cycle started. Immediately after I finally got my account cancelled, my credit card was charged by online "businesses" all over the world. Stay away, big time.

I send a cancellation request few minutes after the 3-day trial application.
Yet they completely ignore me, and go out of their way to charge the whole month membership.
A decent site usually refund a portion of the period the member haven't used
But this site use a no refund policy, so they can ignore your request and charges you.
If a member ever able to fight back to prevent future charges, the site still in the rights to get a hold of
the charges they already made.

I was also charged a full membership after I cancelled on the second day of the 3 day trial. I e-mailed their customer service, phoned them and left a message and tried their live chat, that never came on. So on the 4th day, there it was the charge on my card, it was supposed to be 29.95 and it was a 33.90 charge. THEN, they COMPLETELY blocked me out of the WHOLE service, I couldn't even use the basic service like sending a kiss because I threatened to turn them into the BBB, so finally on about the 15th day, they email me and OFFER me a two month, the first month is what I already paid for, (oh, can I really have the month I already paid for?), and then the next month free), I never responded, so they emailed me again, saying they will refund my money in about 10-15 days, of which I know I'll never see. I'm going to have to cancel my credit card, and be issued a new one so I won't accrue any more charges, If anyone is reading this, FILE A COMPLAINT TO THE BBB, which is what I did, and I am contacting an attorney also, this place is blatantly fraudulant, and they are and have NO intention of cancelling you before the 3 days is up. They WILL ignore you and you WILL be charged, make no mistake about it. A friend of mine on there said that it is being run by a 16 year old from his bedroom, and I'm beginning to believe such is true. I have never ever seen such bad business practices in all my years of doing business on the internet, and these people need to take some etiquette lessons, and if I were them, I wouldn't show my face in public for shame and embarrassment purposes. How do you people sleep at night?

I just filed a complaint against them with the BBB, this company refuses to answer their phone, all calls roll over to voice mail and their so called online help/chat always has a glitch and never works. Just like the old saying goes always look before you leap! This company is a scam. Also, the BBB gives this company an F. That's right an F. I had to cancel my bank card today and once the charges aren't pending anymore Im contacting my banks fraud department.

Kasaundra just because you are an " ever growing company" does not neglect the fact that your company has comitted fraud on more then one occasion with the addition to the fact that you have more than 40 reports filed against your comany with the Better Business Bureau. All for the same reason, so obviously your company doesen't care about your members or people who want to cancel or their or account or should I say can't cancel their account unless they threaten to file a report against SD4ME.com or threaten a law suit against your site. I find it comical that you come on sites like complaints.com to post a rebuttal. The irony of it all is that I got a quicker response from you on a complaints.com then I did as a unwilling paying member on your website. Your company is highly unprofessional and I don't appreciate you or your company digging their hands into my bank account unlawfully. Furthermore, I will discuss nothing with you nor your company. SD4Me.com, because if you were taking care of business lawfully I wouldnt have to have had filed a report against you and notify the fraud department.

You may act clueless to what is going on Kasaunda, but you, I and alot of other people know whats really going on. Scam artist at their finest, the Better Business Bureau gave you people a well earned grade of an F. By the way this is what the Better Business Bureau had to say about your so call " ever growing company" practices.

"Company Rating F
Our opinion of what this rating means:
We strongly question the company’s reliability for reasons such as that they have failed to respond to complaints, their advertising is grossly misleading, they are not in compliance with the law’s licensing or registration requirements, their complaints contain especially serious allegations, or the company’s industry is known for its fraudulent business practices. "

" This company offers online profiles and photos of those seeking romantic partners. The company makes no claims about guarantees of successful matches, nor does it promise that members will find suitable prospects. Its website implies that those who use their services, particularly men seeking women to “pamper, ” are wealthy.

The company offers a three-day trial period, but consumers can’t take full advantage of the service without paying for a membership. The trial viewers give credit card or bank account numbers, apparently in the belief that they won’t be charged until the trial period expires. All complainants say they canceled, or tried to cancel, during their trial period but were charged anyway. Some complain that the company’s mail box is full or that phone and email messages to cancel are not returned.

The company complies with California law by requiring acceptance of its terms and conditions (its contract) before registering and by offering a three-day trial period, during or at the end of which they say you may cancel. The company’s contract does not comply with California’s requirement to notify those who accept that they have the cancellation right, and to use specified language to do that. Nevertheless, that right would have to be enforced by a small claims court action in California. "

The Better Business Bureau of Southland INC.

Please Read

Taken from:

http://www.la.bbb.org/businesslink/ArticleDetails.aspx?ArticleID=3FZpWlFRLvo=

Here's the catch: SugarDaddyForMe.com holds out, for women, the promise of finding a rich man to provide for them and, for men, the promise of finding someone they'll love to pamper. Most who complain to the Bureau cancel almost immediately after they sign on, but when they're charged for services anyway, they find the Sugar Daddy trap more sticky than sweet.

SugarDaddyForMe sells romance with, from all implications, prospects who have a Dom Perignon pocketbook and will freely pour out its contents. Like a barker at a carnival sideshow, the Calabasas company not very subtly hints at what's inside that you can't afford to miss for the slim price of admission. “Ladies, ” it begins, “Are you an attractive, young woman? . . . An aspiring model, actress or businesswoman? . . . Would you like to have a man be a provider for you? . . . Do you just love to be taken care of and treated like a princess? . . . “Looking for an ExtraMarital affair?”

And for the gentlemen, “Have you . . . attained substantial success? Are you a very busy executive . . .? Whether you want to have an ExtraMarital Affair or just love to pamper a special someone, you are at the right place!”

And although the company prohibits offers of money in exchange for sex, its terms and conditions require members to keep their communications “in the nature of seeking romantic relationships where one member may wish to help the other one financially within the context of a relationship because they care for and appreciate the other person and want to help them.”

Without signing up, you can view photo after tantalizing photo of young, attractive, women in various poses and various stages of dress or undress (though the company's policies also prohibit the display of any content containing nudity). Male photos are rare.

Although you can also post your own personal information or search for persons meeting the specifications you choose just by registering and accepting the company's contract, consisting of its terms and conditions (this would be a standard, or non-paying, membership), you will have to upgrade to a premium membership to communicate by email with anyone who wants to contact you or anyone you want to contact. You will have to pay extra to receive email from non-paying members.

Memberships range from $29.95 to $34.95, depending on whether you want such features as top placement in searches, Smart Match Detection emails, etc. The “total access” feature for non-paying member communication adds $14.95 to the cost, and in every case you'll have to pay a $3.95 administration fee.

According to SugarDaddy's terms and conditions, it does not monitor the activity of its members, nor does it screen or interview them, inquire into their backgrounds, or make any attempt to verify the accuracy of their statements. It expressly does not guarantee or promise specific results to those using its website. In short, the website functions as a meeting place for romantics to seek romance, and should you find it, if you're one seeking it, you should be aware that SugarDaddy disclaims any responsibility for loss or damage, including personal injury or death, resulting from your use of their website.

SugarDaddy offers a three-day trial period but has a strict no-refund policy once the standard member upgrades to a paying membership.

The Better Business Bureau has received 39 complaints so far about D-rated SugarDaddyForMe. All complainants say they tried to cancel before expiration of their trial period but were charged anyway. At least some of them complain that they couldn't reach a live operator or that phone or email messages were not returned. In some cases SugarDaddy responds that they did not receive the client's cancellation message until after the charge had been made.

It's clear that all complainants voluntarily paid during the free trial period, since the company had enough financial information to charge them. Complaints don't say why they paid, and only one of the complainants I've been able to contact seemed willing to talk to me in any more detail about her experience with SugarDaddy. That complainant canceled because of her concerns about background checks and concluded that the offer was a scam. “. . . there are more sexual predators on this site than you can imagine, ” she says.

My guess is that the answer as to why complainants pay so soon may also lie in the free trial itself. That is, you can browse the website, post your profile and read others' profiles and view the photos, but you can't fully experience the workings without paying. So, I suspect viewers sign up and give their credit card or bank account number, assuming no charge will be made until the end of the trial period.

I believe it could be, also, that those using the website have second thoughts about it once they realize that three days is probably not enough time to find out whether they'll get results or not.

Kim's advice: Don't get caught. Here are some ways to help you avoid losing money to companies like SugarDaddy:

. Don't give out credit card or bank account numbers unless you feel confident that unauthorized deductions won't be made. If you must give financial information to take advantage of a free trial, accept that as an indication that you probably shouldn't do business with the company.

. Pay by credit card rather than by other means so that you can dispute the charge if you need to.

. Read, read, read the terms and conditions carefully before you accept them. Among those included in SugarDaddy's three and one-half pages of fine print is one that gives them an irrevocable right to use whatever you post (that would include photos and personal information) for any purpose whatsoever.

. As always, get a Better Business Bureau reliability report before doing business. In this case, SugarDaddy's D rating is a strong statement about your chances of a satisfactory transaction.

. California law requires dating services to offer a three-business-day cancellation right, beginning with the date you sign the contract. You sign the contract when you check the “I accept” box early in the registration process, and the company's three-day trial period would comply with the three-day cancellation right requirement.

California law also requires notice of this right to be included in the contract, with specified wording, and because SugarDaddy's contract does not comply with this requirement, you have the right to cancel the contract at any time. Nevertheless, enforcing this right would require a small claims court action and would be difficult.

. A better solution is to complain to the Bureau if you've been overcharged. In almost every case, SugarDaddy has responded to complaints by agreeing to refund the consumer's money. Although, as is typical, most complainants did not notify us as to whether or not they actually received their refund, several did, and I believe it's likely that many or even most of the others received theirs, too.

Finally, be aware that money may not be all you have to lose by using this website.

I paid for a membership to this site about 1 year ago. Little did I know there were fake profiles posted by the staff to entice members to sign up for a paid membership. I paid for one month and then canceled approximately 25 days later. The site billed me for 2 additional months. My emails were never returned.

I left several messagse and finally almost 3 months later I received a credit. These extra debits to my account caused me to go over the limit with my credit card company and I had to pay additional fees. When it was all said and done the $14.95 membership ended up costing me almost $90! I would not recommend this site to anyone.

I have had the exact same issue. Nobody responds to calls, emails, live chat support, voice mails, or feedback forms. They just bill you regardless and there is no way to delete your profile, close your account, or cancel, etc. Please be warned of this scam site.

Customer service is non-existent.

The 3 day trial is a scam to get your card information as demonstrated by my experience. When I signed up for a 3 day trial and requested cancellation on the 3rd day, my request was was ignored and my card billed for a full month.

As all my correspondence was disregarded (as far as I know) I promptly reported the card as lost in order to remove their capability to charge any further, but I went ahead and used the service for that month.

As a site, it seems generally automated and users get generic "we want you back" and "members are checking you out" e-mails, but I have yet to view any real site owner / CS interaction.

If I wanted to further shop for a sugarbaby I would probably use it, but with a prepaid card to limit the site owners ability to rip me off.

Hello,
I have a question to you all. I never signed up for SD4me, but last night I received an email with account and password. What should I do now? Should I just ignore it? Since I never give my card informations to anyone (and I'm still underaged -.-).. but I'm not sure, if they still could have my informations somehow. I didn't log-in once, and after all what I have read in your comments, I think, I shouldn't do it. Does someone have any advices for me?

thanks,
t.

Fisrt of all. If you want to use a site like this and really only want to do a 3 day trial and get a feel for what you might get out of it, my suggestion is to get a pre=-paid credit card and only put on it enough to cover the 3 day trial or one month fee. The pre-paid will keep your credit good, keep you frm being over charged and also is good for privacy. Just curoius. Its Calabasas CA? Wonder if the Kardashians are behind this little venture? Just joking. Too bad its a scam. I could use a rich gentleman pampering me in exchange for the pleasure of my company... Bebegurl Orlando Fl

I have news for you, I agree with sugardaddyforme.com being fraudulent. I was on this site before and tried to stop after one month and was billed for two more months before I finally had to cancel my credit card, which is a hassel since I have other bills set up for autopay with it. Once again, a year later, I am having the same problem. I wasn't going to join, but this time I had 9 emails from men who I wasn't able to read their notes unless I joined. I joined to read them. It turns out these men who emailed me are FAKES. NONE of them have read the eamails I sent from over a week ago. They all sent similar messages. I've tracked their activity online and they all show being online within two hours. FAKE profiles to lure people to join!
I've sent three emails in the past two weeks to customer service and I have heard NOTHING back. TERRIBLE customer service! THREE weeks of attempting to contact and NOTHING back! BEWARE!

When www.sugardaddyforme.com has billed your credit card without your permission you can do something called a chargeback with your bank. Call up your bank; tell them www.sugardaddyforme.com billed you without your permission and chargeback. Your bank will contact the credit card processor that www.sugardaddyforme.com uses and they will file a complaint with the credit card processor or merchant, in order for you to receive a refund for the wrongfully billed transaction. According to visa and MasterCard, www.sugardaddyforme.com can only have about a 2% chargeback ratio. That means for every 100 people that they bill, only about 2 of them can request that they were billed wrongfully before visa and MasterCard starts to investigate transactions being processed by www.sugardaddyforme.com that are not authorized. The result is that their credit card processor will eventually terminate the ability for www.sugardaddyforme.com to process credit cards on their website. Also, notice that what appears on the billing statement is different from what www.sugardaddyforme.com really does. It's is not a web marketing website it is a website that involves dating. Dating is classified as high risk in regards to the credit card processing world. www.sugardaddyforme.com is doing something in the industry called "factoring." That is against visa and MasterCard policy. Your voice counts. Let your bank know that you want your money back and that you are doing a "chargeback". www.sugardaddyforme.com needs to stop taking advantage of people and this is one of the only ways to make that happen. Notify your bank today. When more and more people start complaining about charges that were not authorized, their credit card processor will shut off their ability to process credit cards so no one else gets scammed.

surgardaddyforme.com is a rip off! but yet before you pay to become a member, they tell you how you shouldn't send any money to anybody especially Africa but they are corrupt. they accept payments and do not allow you into their systems after payments. they have done it to me. they should be sued!

i first signed with a different id but could not upload any pictures and then i signed with another address which i used my pictures and paid to become a member but they deny me login yet they keep send messages to my other id asking me to pay to become a member and also upload pictures for more recognition. but this is to you sugardaddyforme! i have closed the debit card so you may rip me off the $34 but not again and i will destroy your reputation if you do not stop ie even if you have one!

sugardaddyforme.com does indeed either post fake profiles or completely ignores them altogether even when reported. Case in point, there are 3 very bad posters of fake profiles, using photos of the same person all the time but not always the same photos. One has over the last 3 years posted at least one new fake profile a week but usually more, I have seen as many 9 in one week posted from this person using photos of the same person, though not all photos are the same. 2 others are almost as bad. They use various ages and locations, the worst repeatedly posts most often in the Morrison, TN area but post numerous others elsewhere.

The 3 worst offenders have been reported by myself and others on various and numerous occasions since they do claim to at least briefly review profiles and photos, I know as I have had problems for no real reason getting my profile re-approved when I have made changes. By now they should know the faces of these woman and delete new profiles on sight yet they continue allow the new profiles and even when shown that this person has several new fake profiles up, meaning I sent them profile ID numbers and links to the fake profiles posted all with different information but photos of the same person they did not delete the profiles or block the user account as I followed the fake profiles and noted that most were still being logged into recently. So they ignore even known fake profiles and leave them up.

There are 1000's of fake profiles posted, many old now, but new ones posted all the time. There are about 40 others fake posters that post new profiles about once or twice a month.

I am used to seeing fake profiles on web sites, like Alt.com and Adultfriendfinder.com and many others, its part of being online, but never ever on any other web site have seen such abuse as people being allowed to post them on sugardaddyforme.com, and this I swear to God for those that believe in him.

I agree when it comes to contacting them, you can almost forget it. Phone calls do go to voice mail, email replies either are not answered or you get a form letter saying they will look into things. I even attempted to contact the owner, yes I know who he is, and it was to find out how to reach him, and he never was kind enough to even send me an email or reply to my own and call, which guess what? Went to voice mail when I tried to reach him.

I canceled my paying membership no problem, you just need to follow the cancellation directions in the terms and conditions and online elsewhere, You Do Not email them to cancel, if you do, forget it. I am just saying my own experience in canceling went fine but can not attest to what others I have read being billed after canceling or even having their credit cards used / numbers stolen only after joining the site. Just I personally had no issues after joining or canceling.

Their fees are outrageous, an admin fee billed monthly for what? No one manning the ship on a runaway train?

They allow profiles by woman that say things as simple,
" want to know about me just ask. " and even " just ask me... " and they don't post anything more then a few sexy photos. About 20 percent of new profiles being posted are that simple.

Fake men? Him read this, maybe men scamming women, but fake profiles by men are more rare, trust me, I know what I am talking about. And I know dating sites and SD4ME is one of the worst online! Just up to make money as all others but this one completely ignores any responsibility to police the site and profiles and ignores its real members, paying and non paying.

I am not saying there are not real profiles, there are, and did meet someone for dinner once, nice lady but not a match for me. But it is hard to find real and serious woman and men who are for real " meaning they actually are sugar daddies and have the means to be. " Most men are frauds and have no money or no real money and just looking to just get laid for free promising the world to get into a woman's pants then giving noting in return or if the woman won't sleep with them on the first date they blow them off when the men did nothing to even try and show they were serious about spoiling her or creating an actual agreement / relationship.

I have policed this site since 2007 and know what I am talking about, sugardaddyforme.com sucks and they need get to on the ball because it is going to Hell more and more by the days and months that pass. I know dating web sites, am sick of most, especially this one and have been working on perhaps creating my own small string of sites that actually police profiles and has real defined standards as sugardaddyforme.com should considering what they make you pay for a membership. And I am not saying this because I am thinking of creating a dating site, its because it is true as almost any member who has been there any length of time can tell you.

Good luck to you, but if you are serious about finding someone for any reason, SD4ME is by far once of your worst choices and you have the the worst chance of finding someone as serious as you are until they get the site in order and set some standards and also learn how to deal with customers.

Be well,
John

This site is 100% BS! They charged me over $50 for a gold membership 3-day free trial that I contacted them to cancel BEFORE the trial expired. I even sent emails to all their "departments" to make sure at least one made it to the "right" place and I would not be charged. I have sent countless emails, called twice, and NOTHING in days! No "response by customer service rep within 48 hrs". The "live chat" is a lie and the phone number they have up now under contacts I could have sworn was added AFTER my emails sent complaining to them about it being hidden. When I first signed up there was no phone number that I saw only the "email". This comapny/site sucks! They are scammers! I only signed up for free trial b/c I had received messages that I wanted to respond to. I thought that like w/ most good companies I could call, email, or chat and they would promptly delete my profile and NOT charge me. They did the exact opposite. I CANNOT seem to cancel my profile/account (despite two attempts to do so by email! Who doesn't have a cancel option on the indiv profiles so ppl can cancel easily themselves...scam artists don't!) I have had to stop payment on the $53 they charged me but will probably not see that money back. I just wanted to try out the sight not sign up for a membership (thus the trial) now I have had my hard earned money taken from me and will have to get another cc issued b/c of this crap sight. Customer service is non existent (what legit company says wait for customer support specialist then immediately sends u to voicemail, doesn't respond to emails w/ in 48 hrs repeatedly, hides contact info for support and still charges you even though u cancel before the "trial" expires. They only have the one "success" story! It probably isn't even true. AWFUL SITE! Do not sign up with them for a "free" account or membership.

Don't sign for this website! They use fake profiles, their costumer support is not existent. There is no way to reach them. I cannot believe that they are still in business.

I have been patiently waiting for a refund that was promised to me. I have heard nothing back and have been trying to call and have never gotten through. I have emailed multiple times. I left a final voice message today that if I did not hear back from them by COB, I would be filing a law suit with the company. Is anyone interested in making this a class-action suit? At this point, its not about money - its about principle and customer service.

This site is a COMPLETE fraud! If you don't mind being charged, then you're ok. But if you try the 3 day free trial membership, they WILL bill you. GUARANTEED THEY WILL BILL YOU! EVEN IF YOU CANCEL. They are complete and utter scammers! They DO NOT have a phone number. EVERY SINGLE TIME YOU CALL. It says "All customer reps are busy, please leave a message." If you're foolish enough to leave a message, they will NEVER call you back! If you try to email them, they will NOT reply within 48 hours, in fact they will never reply. I had to go through a dispute process with my credit card company. If you do fall for this, make sure you have sent them an email and you can save it as evidence that you sent them an email attempting to cancel the 3 day free trail before the 3 days. Then, you have evidence that you did attempt to cancel, and your credit card company should refund you. THIS IS SUCH A SCAM! They make you go through all this hassle just to get your money back. Why do you think that they make you contact customer service to cancel your subscription? Because they will never reach you and cancel your membership! That's why they don't have self cancellation, because they want to bill you!

I used this site. Twice. The first time I just went and got a paid membership. Because that was the only way I could read or answer my emails (that is crap in its self. I should be able to at read and answer for free). Then the second time I tried the 3-day trial. I cancelled it on the third day so my card wouldn't be charged. I didn't hear back from them. Two weeks later I get an email from them stating that they apologize for the delay in the response, and because I was charged when I asked them not to, they refunded the money and gave me two months free. Unfortunately that wasn't true. I was able to use the month they charged me for, but if I want to use my two free months, I would have to use a credit card all over again. Not interested. The sugar daddies NEVER reply to your emails. They only send one, you answer, and then that is it. Nothing else. Whenever I am asked why did I cancel, I tell them, NO ONE answers their emails. In actuality I think this is just a site to get money, and that's all.

They emailed me offering me a free 3 day trial 4 months ago which I accepted. I then emailed them to cancel my membership before the 3 days was up.. Since that time I have been charged for 3 months and have not received a response from their customer service! This place is a huge scam! I have emailed every section of their customer service multiple times and cannot get an answer! SO EVERYONE KNOWS SUGARDADDYFORME.COM IS A HUGE SCAM THAT WILL STEAL YOUR CREDIT CARD MONEY!
