MediaFire Reliable and Easy: My Review of MediaFire for File Downloads

MediaFire is a great website for downloading files. It's easy to use and doesn't require an account, which is a big plus for me. I've never had any issues with viruses or waiting times, which is a relief. The website looks trustworthy and doesn't seem sketchy at all.

The only downside is that the website isn't very searchable. You have to know exactly what you're looking for and then search for it on a separate search engine. This can be a bit of a hassle, but it's not a dealbreaker for me.

Overall, I would give MediaFire 4 and a half stars. It's a reliable website that I always turn to when I need to download a file. I would definitely recommend it to anyone looking for a safe and easy way to download files online.

MediaFire MediaFire's Deceptive Billing Practices: A Frustrating Experience

So, I'm one of those folks who got caught up in the MediaFire mess. I thought I was signing up for a one-time fee, but then I started getting charged every month. It was a real pain in the neck, let me tell you. I tried to cancel my account, but it was like pulling teeth. I had to upgrade just to get the option to cancel, and even then it was a real hassle. I tried to reach out to support, but it was like they were avoiding me. When they finally did respond, they wouldn't give me my money back. It was really frustrating. I think they make it hard to cancel on purpose, just to keep people paying. It's not right, if you ask me.

MediaFire MediaFire Review: Free Version Not Worth the Risk - Beware of Viruses!

So, I tried out MediaFire and let me tell you, the "FREE" version was not worth it. I mean, I get that you get what you pay for, but this was just ridiculous. First of all, the application was so cumbersome to use for plan reviews. It was just a complete mess. But that's not even the worst part. I ended up downloading TEN (10) infiltrations to my WINDOWS operating system. Can you believe that? I couldn't. I was so frustrated and angry.

Thankfully, my virus scanner was able to 'clean' these infiltrations, but it took four hours of my life that I will never get back. It was a complete nightmare for me. I was so turned off from ever considering a PURCHASE of any version of MediaFire. I just couldn't trust it after that experience.

I know some other reviews say that there are no viruses, but that was NOT my experience. Maybe I just got unlucky, but I wouldn't recommend taking that chance. It's just not worth it.

MediaFire MediaFire: A Website Hosting Stolen Material and Ignoring DCMA Requests

MediaFire is a website that has been causing a lot of trouble lately. It seems that they are hosting stolen materials on their website, and despite numerous complaints, they have not done anything about it. We have been trying to get them to take down our stolen material for over a year now, but they have not responded to any of our requests.

We have filled out all of the appropriate forms and sent them repeated DCMA takedown requests, but they have not taken any action. What's even worse is that they are hosting stolen material from dozens of online art schools. This means that they are not only stealing from us, but they are also stealing from teachers and artists who could be making an income from their material.

It's a disgraceful act, and it's even more shameful that they have been alerted to the crime many times and have failed to act. It's frustrating to see a website like MediaFire get away with this kind of behavior. They are what's wrong with the internet, and they need to be held accountable for their actions.

Overall, we would not recommend using MediaFire. If you're looking for a reliable file hosting service, there are plenty of other options out there that don't engage in this kind of behavior. Don't support a website that steals from others and refuses to take responsibility for their actions.

MediaFire Smooth and Reliable: My Positive Experience with Mediafire's Support Team

Been using Mediafire for a long time now, and I gotta say, it's been a pretty smooth ride. But today, I ran into a bit of a problem and had to reach out to their email support. I was expecting to wait for ages, but to my surprise, I got a reply with a solution in less than an hour! And just like that, my problem was fixed. I don't understand how some people can be leaving negative reviews when my experience has been nothing but positive.

If you're bothered by the ads, just cough up some dough and become a paid member. It's worth it, trust me. Mediafire spends a lot of money to keep things running smoothly, and it shows. I've been a paid member since day one, although I don't have any proof of purchase from way back then. But hey, I'll attach my help docket to prove that their support is top-notch.

Overall, I highly recommend Mediafire to anyone looking for a reliable file hosting service. Sure, there might be a few hiccups here and there, but their support team is always there to help you out. So go ahead and give it a try!

MediaFire Disappointing Experience with MediaFire's Pro Subscription: Lack of Support and Functionality

I gotta say, I'm pretty disappointed with MediaFire. I mean, what's the point of shelling out your hard-earned cash for a "pro" subscription when they don't even bother to provide any support for it? It's like they just made an upload site and then decided to try and sell a service without actually following through on their promises.

And let me tell you, there are a LOT of things that don't work on this site. Like those 1-time download links they advertise? Yeah, good luck with that. And if you do happen to run into any issues, don't expect any help from their customer service team. Sure, you can email them, but all you'll ever get in return are automated replies. At best, you might eventually get a human to respond, but even then, all they'll do is send you a "standardized" reply with a link to some instructions that were already available on their site. So really, that's just another automated reply in disguise.

Honestly, I wouldn't waste my money on this site if I were you. They'll gladly take your cash, but they won't give you anything in return. It's just not worth it.

MediaFire MediaFire Review: Easy File Sharing and Storage Solution with Generous Free Plan

MediaFire is a great online file hosting solution that makes it super easy to upload and share files with others. The best part is that you can start with a "Basic" plan that gives you 10GB of storage space, which can be increased up to 50GB if you take certain actions like sharing things on Facebook, G+, and Twitter. As an anonymous user, the captcha codes are short and sweet, and you don't have to worry about any sneaky tricks to become a premium user. Plus, you can add password protection to your files when sharing them with others.

One of the great things about MediaFire is that free users can upload files up to 200MB in size, which is perfect for sharing photos, documents, and other important files. However, image files can only be up to 25MB in size, so keep that in mind when uploading your files. Another cool feature is that you can resume a download for up to 24 hours from when you first clicked the download link. This is super helpful if you have a slow internet connection or if you accidentally close your browser while downloading a file.

For free accounts, there is currently no time limit on how long uploaded files will be stored as long as you access your account. This means that you can keep your files on MediaFire for as long as you need them, without worrying about them being deleted after a certain amount of time. Overall, MediaFire is a great file hosting solution that is perfect for anyone who needs to share files with others. Whether you're a student, a professional, or just someone who likes to share photos with friends and family, MediaFire has got you covered.

MediaFire Disappointing Service and Terrible Customer Support: My Experience with MediaFire

So, I gotta say, I'm not too happy with MediaFire these days. They went and changed their service from 250G to 100G for the same price, and that's just not cool. I had to switch credit cards and when I did, they talked me into "upgrading" which totally screwed me out of the additional memory. And when I tried to go back to my original plan, they looked up the recorded conversation and said I never mentioned the difference in memory (which I didn't notice at the time), instead of working with me to find a solution. Their customer service is just plain terrible.

And it's not just me - I've had a lot of complaints from my clients about trouble uploading and downloading from their site, and I've even had some files get corrupted on their site. It's just not worth the hassle.

So I cancelled my subscription, but of course I can't get a refund for the time I'm not going to be using. I've already used three months of a year-long subscription, and I want nothing to do with MediaFire ever again. I'm just S.O.L. when it comes to getting my money back.

If you're looking for a better option, I'd recommend Dropbox. Sure, it's a bit more expensive, but you get what you pay for. None of my clients have had any problems with them, and that's worth the extra money in my book.

MediaFire MediaFire Review: A Reliable File-Sharing Site with a Simple Solution to Avoid Malicious Ads

MediaFire is a great alternative to Dropbox, especially if you're tired of dealing with download links that don't work. While the site has been known to have some malicious ads, it's not really their fault. The ad network they use is just prone to attack. But don't worry, there's a simple solution to avoid these ads. Instead of clicking on the download button, which can be deceptive, just right-click on it and select "save link as" or something similar. This way, you can avoid triggering any ads or malware.

I personally prefer using anti-malware software instead of ad-blockers, as using ad-blockers can cause the site to do what Photobucket did. However, I do have some pet peeves when it comes to ads. I hate it when they pop up, open new tabs, or do anything else besides closing when I want them to. I also hate it when they redirect me to scam sites, Amazon cards, or any other site. And don't even get me started on drive-by downloads.

But what I really dislike is when sites are forced to shut down because of the overuse of ad-blockers. This not only hurts the site, but it also makes it easier for attackers to launch secret attacks. That's why I think it's important for professional anti-malware companies, like Malwarebytes, to check MediaFire's ad network on a weekly basis. It's a popular site, and that makes it a big target for a large number of users.

So, if you're looking for a reliable file-sharing site, MediaFire is definitely worth checking out. Just make sure your browser is up to date and that you have anti-malware software installed. And remember, always be cautious when clicking on ads!

MediaFire MediaFire Review: Easy, Free, and Convenient Online File Storage

Online file storage don't get easier than this, in my experience anyway. Unlimited uploading and downloading are available for free, and you don't even need to create an account. Plus as long as you use the same computer, your files are remembered and you can save them in folders even if you have no account.

If you want something more than a 200mb per file limit, any of three pro packs will give you 10Gb per file, with increasing hotlinking and other bonuses as you buy bigger and better. Top of the line facilities include enough space to store and manipulate a couple of million documents or at least a half million mp3 files - a terabyte of storage, in fact. This doesn't come without a deluxe price - $70 gets you all the bells and whistles, but you can still get onto the pro ladder and get that 10gb file size limit for as little as $9 a month.

If you want to keep your money but also want more convenience, even a free account allows you to handle your files from any computer, anywhere. The only major restrictions are that free users have to get their downloads via the mediafire site, and the file size is lower. Paid users of any flavor can share direct hotlinks and get that chunky 10gb file option.

In practice, using the service as a free and account-less user is perfect for occasional needs. 200mb isn't huge, but still isn't stingy either and unless you're uploading movies or entire CDs or big graphics, it will serve for many uses. You remain anonymous and yet can still find and organize your files as long as you use the same device to upload, and don't delete your cookies.

If you want to pass along files that are too large for email, but not above that 200mb limit, this is as easy as it gets. Recommended. I really like MediaFire because it's so easy to use. I don't have to worry about creating an account or remembering a password. I can just upload my files and access them from any computer. The only downside is that I have to download my files from the MediaFire site if I'm a free user. But that's not a big deal for me. I also like that I can upgrade to a pro account if I need more space. The prices are reasonable and I get a lot of extra features. Overall, I think MediaFire is a great service and I would recommend it to anyone who needs to store or share files online.

MediaFire P. A. T. H. E. T. I. C. - NO SUPPORT WHATSOEVER

ABSOLUTELY NO POINT IN SPENDING A. N. Y. MONEY BUYING A "PRO" SUBSCRIPTION! These people just made an upload site, and try to sell a service without providing ANY support for it. If it doesn't work (a LOT of things, like the 1-time download links they advertise they have!), you can email them, but all you'll ever get is automated replies. AT BEST, you MAY get a human to reply at SOME POINT (...), but all you'll get from him/her is a "standardized" reply sending you a doc or link of instructions (which was already available on their site before you wrote to them...). So, essentially, that too is an "automated" reply! DO NOT WASTE YOUR MONEY HERE, THEY WILL TAKE IT AND GIVE YOU NOTHING BACK.

Not thrilled that they decided to change the service from 250G to 100G for the same price. I had to switch credit cards and when I did I was talked into "upgrading" which totally screwed me out of the additional memory. When I emailed to see if there was anything I could do about going back to the original plan I had, they looked up the recorded conversation and said I never said anything about the difference in memory (because I didn't notice it) instead of doing the right thing and working with me. Their customer service SUCKS. I've had a lot of complaints from my clients about trouble uploading and downloading from their site and have had my files corrupted on their site.

I cancelled, but of course can't be refunded for the time I'm not going to be using. I've used 3 months of a year subscription and I want NOTHING to do with Mediafire ever again. I'm S. O. L. For getting a refund though.

Use Dropbox. None of my clients have a problem with them. It's worth the extra money, because you gat what you pay for.

MediaFire MediaFire Review: Pros and Cons of Storing and Sharing Files Online

MediaFire is a website that lets you store and share files online. It's a pretty cool site, but there are a few things you should know before you start using it.

First of all, if you sign up for a basic account, you'll notice that there are a lot of ads on the site. Some of these ads are pretty annoying, and they can be a real pain if you're trying to download a file. In fact, if you're not careful, you might end up clicking on one of these ads instead of the download link for your file. This can be a real problem, especially if you're new to computers and don't know what to look for.

Another thing to keep in mind is that some of the ads on MediaFire are actually scams. These ads might try to trick you into downloading a virus or some other kind of malware. If you're not careful, you could end up infecting your computer with something nasty.

Despite these issues, MediaFire is still a pretty good site. If you're willing to put up with the ads, you can store and share your files online for free. And if you upgrade to a premium account, you can get rid of the ads altogether.

Overall, I'd say that MediaFire is a decent site, but you need to be careful when using it. Make sure you're clicking on the right links, and watch out for any suspicious ads. If you do that, you should be able to use the site without any problems.

Is MediaFire Legit?

MediaFire earns a trustworthiness rating of 91%

Highly recommended, but caution will not hurt.

Our conclusion: After a detailed review, ComplaintsBoard finds MediaFire to be a trustworthy company. Although there's a 0% resolution rate for customer complaints, which deserves attention, MediaFire is known for their high standards and safety. If you're thinking about dealing with MediaFire, it's wise to check how they handle complaints.

MediaFire has received 9 positive reviews on our site. This is a good sign and indicates a safe and reliable experience for customers who choose to work with the company.

A long registered date for mediafire.com can be seen as a positive aspect for MediaFire as it indicates a commitment to maintaining the website and its domain name for a long period of time. It also suggests that the company is organized and has taken steps to secure its online presence.

The age of MediaFire's domain suggests that they have had sufficient time to establish a reputation as a reliable source of information and services. This can provide reassurance to potential customers seeking quality products or services.

Mediafire.com has a valid SSL certificate, which indicates that the website is secure and trustworthy. Look for the padlock icon in the browser and the "https" prefix in the URL to confirm that the website is using SSL.

Mediafire.com has been deemed safe to visit, as it is protected by a cloud-based cybersecurity solution that uses the Domain Name System (DNS) to help protect networks from online threats.

Several positive reviews for MediaFire have been found on various review sites. While this may be a good sign, it is important to approach these reviews with caution and consider the possibility of fake or biased reviews.

We looked up MediaFire and found that the website is receiving a high amount of traffic. This could be a sign of a popular and trustworthy website, but it is still important to exercise caution and verify the legitimacy of the site before sharing any personal or financial information

However ComplaintsBoard has detected that:

  • While MediaFire has a high level of trust, our investigation has revealed that the company's complaint resolution process is inadequate and ineffective. As a result, only 0% of 12 complaints are resolved. The support team may have poor customer service skills, lack of training, or not be well-equipped to handle customer complaints.
  • Website's registrar is popular among scammers, it means that a significant number of scammers have used that registrar to register domain names for their fraudulent websites. This can indicate that the registrar has lax verification processes, making it easier for scammers to register domains without providing accurate information.

MediaFire MediaFire Review: A Fast and Easy File Sharing Service with Some Limitations

MediaFire is a pretty good website for sharing files, but it's got some issues that can be a real pain in the butt. One of the biggest problems is that it's banned in a lot of countries, which can make it tough to use if you're traveling or working with people in different parts of the world. I use MediaFire a lot to share designs with my clients, but sometimes they can't open the files because of these restrictions.

Despite these issues, I still think MediaFire is a great option for file sharing. It's really easy to use and you don't need to sign up for an account to get started. You can upload files of all different types and sizes, and then share them with anyone you want by sending them a link. You can also password-protect your files if you want to keep them private.

One thing I really like about MediaFire is that it's fast. You can upload and download files quickly, which is great if you're in a hurry. The website is also pretty user-friendly, so even if you're not super tech-savvy, you should be able to figure out how to use it pretty easily.

Overall, I'd definitely recommend MediaFire if you're looking for a good file sharing service. Just be aware that it might not work in all countries, so you might need to find an alternative if you're traveling or working with people in different parts of the world.

MediaFire MediaFire Review: Easy File Storage and Sharing with Mobile App

So, I was looking for a place to store my files online and came across MediaFire. At first, I was a bit skeptical because I had never heard of it before, but I decided to give it a try. I signed up for a free account and started uploading my files. It was really easy to use and I liked that I could organize my files into folders.

One thing I really like about MediaFire is that you can share files with other people. This is really helpful when you need to send a large file to someone and it won't fit in an email. You can just upload it to MediaFire and send them a link.

I also like that MediaFire has a mobile app. This makes it really easy to access my files on the go. I can upload files from my phone and access them on my computer later.

The only downside I have found with MediaFire is that the free account only gives you 10GB of storage. This might not be enough for some people, but it works for me.

Overall, I am really happy with MediaFire and would recommend it to anyone looking for a place to store their files online. It's easy to use, has a mobile app, and you can share files with other people. Plus, it's free!

MediaFire Beware of MediaFire: A Scam Website Trying to Extract Your Personal Information

ABOUT YOURSELF

MediaFire is a website that promises to provide you with a download, but in reality, they are just trying to extract your personal information. It's a total scam! I would never recommend using this site, no matter what they offer. They are not to be trusted, and you should never give them any details about yourself.

I was lured in by the promise of a download, but as soon as I entered my personal information, the download disappeared. It was as if it never existed in the first place. I felt like a fool for falling for their trick, and I don't want anyone else to make the same mistake.

In conclusion, MediaFire is not a trustworthy website. They will try to extract your personal information and then leave you with nothing. Don't be fooled by their promises, and never give them any details about yourself. Stay safe and avoid this site at all costs.

MediaFire MediaFire Review: Scam Artists Taking Your Money, Go with Google Drive Instead

So, I gotta tell ya, I had a pretty rough experience with MediaFire. I was tryin' to upload some files and it just wasn't workin' right. And then, to top it all off, I ended up gettin' scammed! Can you believe it? I mean, I shoulda known better, but I was just tryin' to get my stuff uploaded and I didn't think twice about it.

Anyway, long story short, I ended up losin' some money and I didn't even get the service I was payin' for. And let me tell ya, they don't offer no refunds, even though they say they do. So, if you're thinkin' about usin' MediaFire, I'd say think again. There's plenty of other options out there, like Google Drive, that are totally free and won't scam ya.

I mean, I get it, sometimes you gotta pay for quality service. But when it comes to MediaFire, it just ain't worth it. They're just a bunch of scam artists tryin' to take your money. So, save yourself the trouble and go with somethin' else. Trust me, you'll be glad you did.

MediaFire MediaFire Review: Limited Uploads and Slow Speeds, Causing PC Issues

MediaFire is aight, but it's got some issues. One of the biggest problems is that you can't upload anything bigger than 400Mb. That's a real bummer if you're trying to share some big files with your friends or coworkers. Plus, the upload speed is straight up terrible compared to other cloud storage services like GoogleDrive or Dropbox. It's like watching paint dry, except less exciting.

Another thing that really grinds my gears is how MediaFire always seems to slow down my PC or even make it crash. I had to uninstall it once just to get my computer to stop acting up. And even when I did reinstall it, I had to make sure it didn't start up with Windows or else I'd be in for a world of hurt.

All in all, MediaFire is an okay option if you're looking for a free cloud storage service. But if you need to upload big files or want something that won't make your computer go haywire, you might want to look elsewhere.

MediaFire MediaFire Review: Slow, Annoying, and Not User-Friendly

Finally got the file downloaded but it was a hassle. MediaFire needs to work on their system. It's not user-friendly at all. The website is slow and it takes forever to upload or download files. The ads are annoying and pop up all the time. It's hard to navigate through the website and find what you're looking for. The free version only allows a limited amount of storage space and the paid version is too expensive. Overall, I wouldn't recommend MediaFire to anyone. There are better file sharing websites out there that are easier to use and more reliable.

MediaFire MediaFire Review: Misleading Fees and Poor Customer Service

So, I was looking for a place to store my files online and came across MediaFire. At first, I was excited because they advertised a one-time fee for their service. However, when I signed up, I soon realized that they were charging me every month instead of just the one-time fee. I was pretty upset about this, as you can imagine.

I tried to get in touch with them to sort out the issue, but their "contact us" section on their website was not working properly. It was frustrating because I couldn't find any other way to get in touch with them. I felt like they were avoiding me on purpose.

In the end, I had to cancel the card that they were using to charge me every month. It was a hassle, but it was the only way to stop the charges. I was disappointed with the whole experience and would not recommend MediaFire to anyone.

Overall, I think that MediaFire needs to work on their customer service and be more transparent about their fees. It's not fair to charge people every month when they were promised a one-time fee. Hopefully, they will improve in the future and make things right with their customers.

MediaFire MediaFire Review: A Once-Reliable File Storage Service Goes Downhill

I gotta say, MediaFire used to be my go-to for storing and downloading files. I've been using it since way back in 2004, and they used to know me like the back of their hand. But lately, things have been going downhill.

I was trying to find some old files I had stored on the site earlier this year, but I couldn't seem to locate them. It was a real bummer, because I had some important stuff on there that I really needed. And to make matters worse, now I can't even access the site at all.

I'm not sure what's going on with MediaFire these days, but it's definitely not the same as it used to be. I miss the good old days when I could rely on them to keep my files safe and sound. Hopefully they'll get their act together soon and start providing the kind of service they used to. Until then, I'll have to look elsewhere for my file storage needs.

MediaFire MediaFire's Deceptive Sign-Up Process and Account Deletion Policy: A Frustrating Experience

So, I was trying to download a printable pdf from a website and before I knew it, I had a MediaFire account. I was pretty annoyed because I didn't want to sign up for anything, but I guess that's just how things work these days. What really bothered me though was that I couldn't delete my account for seven whole days! That's just ridiculous. I don't like it when websites use trickery to get people to sign up for things. It's not fair and it's not honest. If MediaFire can't get business with legitimate advertising, then I don't want anything to do with them. That's just my two cents.
