THIS APP IS A SCAM

LITERALLY EVERY SINGLE LISTING ON THIS APP IS FAKE I LOST $550 to this app because the landlords require a security deposit before you even meet. If you’re looking for a home and you’re desperate, than stay far tf away from this app, the room are too good to be true. DO NOT DOWNLOAD THIS APP, YOU WILL GET SCAMMED

404 Error

Something has been terribly wrong with Roomi. I used to use this app to find roommates - but now I cannot even get into the app, for it only give me a 404 Wrror page. It’s sad, because Roomi once gave me two tee shirts with their logo on it for free, and I still have them! What happened, guys???

Doesn’t work

First off, app gives a 404 page often and won’t let you click any buttons to navigate elsewhere. The location search feature doesn’t work at all, not in the app and not on the website. Results for Colorado USA show New York results.

Scam

Every listing on this app is a scam have filed a police complaint with the NYPD as well as the FCC.

Is this whole app a joke or a scam?

I posted a listing last week as I was urgently searching for a roomate, and contacted some potential candidates who seemed to be recently active. As I try to check responses the day after, I can’t access the website as they are “going trough some major update and offline for a few hours”. Fine. As I try to log in again after that, my password all of a sudden does not work, I try to the reset it and never receive the link (checked spam already, tried trough several browsers and app with the same bad result). Tried to contact customer support and messaging does not work.

I was about to pay for verification and so glad I didn’t, but this feels infuriating nonetheless.

The concept is good as there is such a need for a good platform to match good roomates and none of the existing ones are remotely viable.
