Similar issues as other reviewers. The site is coded from the 1990's, and the total number of members is actually quite inflated, the actual active member count is quite low.
The site just went thru another week of 'only VIP members (paid) can log in', and oddly enough my paid subscription had just run out days before... I think it's set up so it locks you out so you'll pay up again... sorry dude don't think so.
Do a google search on "bear411 sucks" or "bear411 problems" and you'll see there's quite a few problems with the site and the webmaster.
Someone really needs to get the ball rolling on the delete membership issue - I as well decided i would pay for a month or two - both times, the minute my subscription ran out, i was basically cut off - so much for the advertisement - FREE - I now know that i am blocked every friday - and this past monday as well. also - you can only log in so many times in a day - i don't have the opportunity to stay logged in all the time so even as of just this morning i logged in a few times, now i only get to view the first page of men - what a f...in joke
I never had any problem with B411 until now, I keep getting emails saying that I have 3 messages and if I don't read them in 10 days they will be deleted., and when I tried to log on and it keeps asking me to sign up for their VIP, I don't think so...
I have ad an account (paid) for many years with Bear411. Now, I cannot log into my account on my laptop, but I can on my iPhone. What gives?
This site has and always to me became a scam site and I also can not delete my account as the site has caused me a lot of pain and in 2012 I travelled to usa for a long time and got hacked I got abused by some piece of evil on there because I would not have s*x.
He hacked into every message i had I was a paid memeber at the time and wrote to Greg and got no response. Later when I tried to make contact with another diabetic on the site to get some needle tops off him for my diabetes pen, again as I got hacked by some desprate queen of the tramps . I then had to do it the hard way which was to go to a doctor get checked up got a prescription but the needle tops for insulin pen and total cost was 280.00
dollors. And before any of you asked I got pick pocketed by some junkie in a subway.
Basically the site owner has not got the f***ing balls like any man to respond with respect as a matter of fact i wrote quite a few times in palm springs to him but he could not care less as AGAIN i got no respone from this guy or woman as the site owner could be anybody .
My advice to anyone ?
Don't waste your time as there are pleeeeeenty of site to meet nice men and you don't have to pay to keep his mortgage and holidays and other assets he has to survive.
As for the site access ? Don't waste your time
Go to Growlr daddyhunt, scruff, i could go on and on and my last thought on this question.
Ask yourself HAVE YOU GUYS EVER MET ANYONE APART FROM A QUICK SHAG ON BEAR411 OR DOES YOUR LIFE ALSO MAKE YOU BELIEVE ON THIS SITE AS TO WHO YOU CHAT WITH THAT YOU GOT TO MEET HIM AND WAS ALL THE WEEKS OR MONTHS YOU WERE CHATTING TO HIM WORTH IT APART FROM A SHAG ?
Ask yourself that.
Go to Growlr, Scruff, Grinder, daddyhunt and you will find the guy you are chatting with on bear411 and one last thing dont be fooled by the website design by your hormones or yourself.
Regards to everyone that has gone through the same thing.
It you read this Greg delete me stockycub and good riddance.
