Pretty sure this is a scam. I filled out my bio and followed all directions to volunteer, and subscribed $10/month to help out. 6 months went by without any communication about getting matched, but I was getting charged every month so I decided to cancel. There is no way to cancel online. I emailed to cancel, and they asked me to set my profile to "Unavailable" first so I wouldn't get any matches. That's where the problems started.I wasn't able to update my profile because I kept getting an error message when trying to change my profile. When I shared the error with them over email, they said they "bothered" their developer and he said it was fine LOL. Then I looked up other reviews about this place. And yup, other people with similar experiences.
