Dishonest from the very beginning. I don’t care to give these people my personal information. They then pass this on to realtors who bury me in emails trying to sell my home. Gestures to these morons. What I want is serious renters to view my place not a bunch of phony responses. Vigorous hand gestures to these people. ### 1/5 — Shady Company, Stay away! *2019-05-27* So basically I was trying to desperately find somebody to sub lease my apartment. I post ads on Craigslist and another site. I got a reply within 24 hours telling they are interested and were in a hurry. Then poof, the person goes dark, comes back in a few days and says she found something else, and then recommended this app to me. I sign up and post an ad and everything. I then get another email from the same person telling she passed on my info to a friend who might be interested. I get another email with almost the same text from a different person and turns out she recommended the same app to me again. I checked the urls in the email and all of them custom referral links. Basically, I think employees are just creating fake emails and getting in touch with people who are in real need of similar services and scam them into signing up for their service. The reviews here also look fake with the same marketing spiel on all the five star reviews. Also notice how reviews / ratings are either 1 star or 5 stars. Classic signs of a scam! If they have to resort to such tactics, it only gives me an indicator how their actual business must be doing. I was about to pay for premium services. Thank god I did not! PLEASE STAY AWAY! AND TELL as many people as possible about this new age pyramid scheme. EDIT: seems like the developer responded with the same message again with no insight into why there are fake profiles that message people on other platforms. This has to be the most sorry state of a business I have ever seen. **Developer response:** We always read and accept, both positive and critical, feedback from our users with compassion. 1. Had CirTru been a "new age pyramid scheme", then CirTru would NOT have made their user verification process not only compulsory but a tough one to bypass or spoof. 2. You yourself tried couple of fake work emails and you were not allowed to list your room until you passed CirTru's user verification process. Before listing your room on CirTru you had to verify your real work email only after which you were allowed to list your room on CirTru. 3. CirTru is 100% free to use. It lets you list your room for free. Yes, there is an "option" to upgrade your room but that option to upgrade is only shown "AFTER" your room is already listed on CirTru. CirTru does not charge anything to list your room. It remains active as long as you want it to be without any charges or fees. Please note that "new age pyramid schemes", doesn't have such apps or social media handles where they openly seek feedback from their users. So please don't misuse such feedback channels of consumer product companies to rant. If you need any more help, then please send us an email. ### 4/5 — Strongly recommended *2019-05-26* I was earlier skeptical about this app claiming itself as the "Most Trusted Roommate Finder" but when I tried posting my room without getting verified ;), it just did not let me whatsoever. So I had to verify myself before posting my room, and when I started receiving responses I knew for sure, that those users are verified too. I got less responses as compared to other apps but every response was from a genuine person. I found a roommate within few days. Strongly recommended **Developer response:** Dear Prisoni, thank you for recommending Cirtru. If you have any suggestions, please email to us. We would love to hear from you! ### 5/5 — Great App!! *2019-05-26* 3 days flat, and I moved in an awesome room in a great neighborhood & with great roommates. Everything seemed too good to be true but I still went ahead because I knew that the room-providers are verified users. If it was not on Cirtru, I wouldn't have reached out to my future roommates and I would not have ever known about this room. Thank you Cirtru. **Developer response:** Dear CirTru user, you are most welcome. Thank you for believing and experiencing the trust in the CirTru community.
