Fab Guys Omdömen 

Signed up as a brand new user to both Fabguys and Fabswingers a few weeks ago.

Managed to hook up on Fabguys the night that I signed up and we verified each other - great!

I didn't have time to fill out my bio when I signed up and only got around to it about three days in.

I posted my bio to Fabguys and was instantly flagged for photo verification - why, I was already user verified (no, I didn't connect using his WiFi, I only use mobile data)?! I posted the same bio to Fabswingers and was immediately flagged for photo verification there too.

I have a feeling that it was the line:

'I do not do any illegal substances and I do not wish to meet people who do. Please pass me by.'

I'm guessing they don't like mention of drugs, even though the context here is quite clearly anti-drug use. Yet there are so many members asking to buy drugs who aren't punished, but I'm punished for telling drug users not to message me. Makes perfect sense to me!

There are a lot of drug users on the sites - I've been messaged by a few already, in just a short few weeks. There's a guy constantly posting status updates asking 'to buy snow.' They don't do anything.

I uploaded a verification photo to each site and they were approved in about seven or eight hours (not the one hour it tells you on the verification page) and my accounts were - only partially - restored upon successful verification, which I shouldn't have had to do anyway, because I was user verified.

I can post status updates, search members and exchange messages with other users and I can add myself as available to meet, but I cannot use the forums or post actual listings for meets. Why? No idea, they're ignoring my contact form messages as is their policy!

It clearly says I meet all of the criteria and has big green ticks next to each criteria. Yet I can't post listings, because when they approved my verification picture they didn't restore either account properly, or fully.

I've sent two contact form messages about site bugs, one about an admin making a mistake and one to the owners - on each site, so eight in total.

All four have been ignored and it's been a week. If anyone complains on the forums they get told it's 48 hours and the thread is promptly closed so that the person cannot retort that they're still not receiving a reply. It's been a week and neither account is working and neither set of four contact forms has received a reply. I can't even post on the forums, yet I've done nothing wrong.

The only features of the site that I can't use are the features that are locked behind a timer (72 hours for meet listings and 14 days for the forms) and verification requirements. I meet both of those, indeed on Fabguys I exceed the time limits and I'm both user and now photo verified, but I can't use either feature. I've never even posted on the forums so I can't have a forum ban, because I've never used them. The meet listing ban equally makes no sense. The bans only came into effect when my accounts were reactivated following successful photo verification. It's clearly a bug or an admin hasn't ticked a box they should have when approving the photo verification. Whatever the reason, it's not good enough.

Thank God I hadn't upgraded. I was going to, and I'm so glad I didn't because I don't have full use of the sites and I've done nothing wrong.

These sites are a complete and utter joke and they're run by the most incompetent admins I've ever seen in more than 25 years of using the internet.

I was quite happy to buy silver upgrades on both profiles, but I'm sure as hell not going to now, so they've lost out there. I'd encourage people to seriously consider avoiding upgrading, as if you have any issues with the poorly made websites, they will NOT help you.

The stupid thing is I can use a different e-mail address, change my IP address, make a new profile and use it fine, but why should I have to, especially when I'm getting user verifications and people know me on the account that is half dysfunctional? It shouldn't be a big ask for them to just fix a bug with their own sites. But apparently it is a big ask, in fact it's too much to ask.

What Michael Millington says below is simply not true. If the sites were well run, then the majority of the reviews wouldn't be dreadful, would they? If the sites were so well run, then their happy customers would be showing solidarity and posting good reviews - but they're not. Fact is, they are poorly run. My experiences prove that. I've done absolutely nothing wrong yet my accounts haven't been activated properly. What started as a technical bug has become poor customer service also.

UPDATE: In response to the Fabguys copy and paste template response:

This proves my point, you don't read what people are telling you. As I clearly stated in my review, I DID use the contact form - twice on each site - you ignored them. You do NOT have that many users!!!

An absolutely pathetic site, truly is worse than rubbish, I'm in the process of having the site shut down permanently

By not listening to ridiculous lies as gospel and making legit enquiries and not suspending accounts permanently without giving a legit reason and giving aggrieved user a chance to reply

Fabguys is terrible. Let me explain. After getting verified you get messages from old men asking if you have any children and there ages. Many complain to site moderator but nothing gets done. Fabguys owners are only interested in people to buy silver or gold membership so they can see disgusting photos on others profiles. And not remove these sick members asking for under age children. Just google killers and sex offenders on fabguys you be surprised what you read.

God awful, full of time wasters, pdo's and rpist. Admin do nothing

I have been a member of this site since 2021
I wouldn't recommend it. The clientele are very fickle .Time wasting is rife . The final straw came today days after I renewed I discovered I'd been permanently banned from the site's discussion boards for some delinquency.
When I complained to the admin they've booted me off the site without a refund.
This site is an utter disgrace Avoid it like the plague and save yourself some cash
"Silvermane"

I've used them 15yrs on/off found love twice. Met some great people, found nice group real friends.

great site,i use it to find friends and im very open and honest, be that and you'l be fine.

Site is full of bugs. You can use it for a while, then suddenly can no longer access your profile. Their system says you have an account when you try to log in, but if you loose your password and try to ask for a reset it then says you don't have an account. Very annoying when you are talking to an old friend.

I have been using this site for a few. Years I have to say I find it very easy to use,and I have met some amazing people on fabguys too.I do however feel that fabguys could perhaps give their customers a small bonus for our continuous usage of fabguys
Kind regards

I'm leaving this 1 star because this website is completely trash. These guys are constantly ASKED me for pics and suckchat called snapchat, it's like porn revenge.

Therefore i'm moving onto sleepyboy, rentmen and onlyfans for good.

Waste of time, the Admin are ignorant and do not help in any way, shape or form. Blocked me, when I tried to rejoin they ignored my request. While all this is going on, they allow, druggies, Escorts and other low life to cruise the site.

The site is full of wasters who are never ever genuine I've been on here on and off but I will never ever go back on here.

People's profiles never match the photos and most of them want to collect pictures as for chem freindly do me favour why they just say Im a drug users admin are full of sh#t an absolute waste of time.

Presumably FabGuys thought it would be a good idea to open up the forums from their sister-site Cottaging.co.uk at the start of the Covid pandemic, to give their members a little bonus due to not being able to hook up due to the lockdown rules. Little could they have known what a nest of Vipers this was going to be. Over-run by vicious little Marys, Snowflakes, Virtue Signallers, perverted trannies,cantankerous old farts and back-stabbing vermin who hit the mods alert button at the drop of a hat with minimal provocation, but more often than not for no f$&*ing reason at all. Best of all are the forums 'Matriarchs' who infest, and start threads on a daily basis, just for the sake of doing so, and presumably, to see their names 'up in lights'. The most notable subjects are as listed below... Someoneelsesname - previously the member known as happy and curious who after a username change (due to being banned from said forums), now commutes between Bristol and Falkirk to post there. A truly obnoxious git who thinks his every word is gospel. Loads of other members sussed him out virtually from the start and he cannot accept he's been busted. A very melancholy individual with as much personality as a cold tvrd. Midsbeargrrr - our self-appointed resident alleged comedian. Well, the reality is, he's not even CLOSE to funny. Just like the late and unlamented Preston Gnome, all of his threads in the forum are juvenile and asinine, and are clearly the work of some deranged troll who doesn't know when to stop. If it wasn't for other slow in the minds like Sleepflower and WatchMeCum for instance), all his threads would die an instant death. He's about as funny as a urinary tract infection. No Nonsense - needs to find another username as everything he hoists up on the forum is nonsense. Terminally puerile, and woe betide you if you don't agree with everything he posts up. Out go the toys from the pram like the big baby he is, and tantrums abound. Definitely needs some lobotomy work doing. DeepCockMeat - Another opinionated scrote with sewage for brains. A veritable band-wagon jumper who is all over everything like a rash, but with not one original thought in his stinking carcass. Needs to order up a straight-jacket from Very as soon as possible. Uncut guy - also known as Wendy from Worthing. A sanctimonious piece of work, a veritable tit and unstoppable gasbag. Another tantrum thrower and opinionated w^%ker with the gospel overtones of someoneelsesname. This twerp is a virtue signaller of the highest calibre and everything he posts up should be ignored.

Angel40, one of the many bitchy little trannies that likes to stir up political rubbish,tapeworms are more valuable to humanity than it is.

Liam73 likes to send rape and blackmail threats, been reported multiple times by multiple people, mods do nothing.

Gay men are rare on here, it's just a mix of unconvincing trannies and unhappily married men talking about their wives

i have met and made some good friends on here, yes its got its share of time wasters, but there are some really nice guys out there who just want to be good friends.

I can’t send any photos or massages on fabguys for about a week now
It says not having any updates for now hopefully someone can help me

Getting worse by the day, had to report several forum users for clearly making thinly veiled requests for illegal pornography. The merge with the cottaging site after the pandemic just filled it to the brim with time wasters and fantasists. You can safely ignore any review of this site that has more than one star, it genuinely has no good points left. Stay well away

I've been a member for over ten years. It is a well run site (despite all the comments on here to the contrary), free to use, well designed, has good functionality, and yes, some of the men and self-defined others are fakes, weird, confused, time wasters, fantasists, etc, but as in all other things in life it's up to each individual to make judgements about who to contact and meet. Providing you take responsibility, it is a very rewarding site for the sexually adventurous.
