major disappointmentI’ve used this app in the past to find sublets or rooms for rent. How disappointing is it that now they have put messages behind a pay wall. 11.99 PER WEEK at minimum. God forbid this was an emergency situation for someone, what a deterrent it would be to have your money funneled at the IDEA of find…

MessagesI got several emails saying I had messages but then when I checked the messages, it wanted me to subscribe. I did not realize this was a pay service…DELETE.

Not a free serviceI'm very disappointed with Roomster's. They say you can have the service for free, but that just means you can reach out to People. If you want to see the responses you have to pay so it's not worth doing anything for free. Just know they're going into it. Be ready to pay if that's what you want.
