InterNations Avaliações 

As far as I’m aware, I signed up for basic on this platform. I never used it. Thought about albatross, but, didn’t want to pay the stupid fee. Stayed with basic, still didn’t use it. None of the events were near me to travel to. Next thing I know, I got an email last week telling me that “unfortunately they were unable to charge my card for the Albatross membership”. I deleted my account, wrote them an email and told them to stop asking for payment, zero response. I checked my email today, and there it is, a “reminder” to pay my account. I’m really confused because I’m pretty certain I didn’t sign up for the “elite” membership as I didn’t want to pay the fee. Internations seem to have no ethics with regards to their practices with payments, sending “reminder” emails with a hint of threat. No.

They were very responsive. They did not dismiss my concerns.

Very good service.

Alligevel siger jeg tak til Internations for deres fint svar angående min første henvendelse. Så der er 14 dags fortrydelse ret. Jeg var bare ikke opmærksom på, at jeg havde meldt mig selv ind i den aktiv del af Internations. Det er fint nok.
Hvordan kan jeg så bruge den mulighed for self at tilbude aktiviteter til medlemmer i AArhus Danmark.
2. Badning i havn i solen sant vandet, fælleskab, evt grill bagefter ved Tangkroen. Også vinterbadning.
Kareoke aften i Sherlock Holmes, Frederiksgade. Jeg vil gerne stå for disse muligheder.
Simple "Radiant Heart" chigong/ bowspiring kan også deles barfod/kørestol på græset i min have, AArhus N. eller også ved Tangkroen. Jeg er uddanet fysiotepeut og diakon blandt andet.
Jeg er vandt til at dele disse slags events allerede med andre expats samt danskere.
med venlig hilsen Doreen Joyce
How do I set this up as aktiv deltgelse?

fake good reviews, don’t get scammed!

Clearly, I’m not the first person to get scammed by InterNations. They charge $19.95 for a platform that offers nothing more than what’s freely available on social media.
I misremembered my free period, and as soon as I saw their charge, I immediately requested a cancellation and refund. Not only did they refuse, but they continued billing me for two more months—charges I didn’t notice right away due to traveling.
I’m beyond frustrated with companies that exploit customers through deceptive billing and a total lack of integrity. If you're considering InterNations, proceed with caution.

People should be aware of the implications of dealing with an unethical conpany. In my case, my credit card was replaced and they couldn't charge next year's renewal fee, so they immediately suspended my membership yet they are still threatening me with a collection company when no services whatsoever have been rendered! It's like if you don't pay your Netflix subscription, Netflix cancel your account, and takes you to court for the future year of not-viewing... And of course, you can't even access your account page.
A very unethical behavior, disgraceful. A scam.
EDIT: Below, Internations deny that they block access to the account. Well, this is the pasted content of the notice you see if you try to access your account, followed by the "Enter your card details" link.
Pity I can't post an screenshot. Just to show how dishonest they are:
"Payment for your Albatross Membership was due on 13 February 2025, but we were unable to process the charge. You have been notified both on the InterNations website and by email that this payment is overdue, and your account is now frozen until your subscription fees have been paid.

To get your account back and avoid further legal action, please settle this charge immediately — we reserve the right to transfer the claim to a debt collection agency if this bill remains unpaid."

The support staff worked with me to solve a technical issue I had with my account. Great work and big thanks!!

Unacceptable and Dishonest Practices – Stay Away

Internations deliberately makes it extremely difficult to cancel a Premium membership or impossible...
There is no clear cancellation option. They falsely redirect users to manage the cancellation via Apple, even when no Apple subscription exists.
I wasted over 30 minutes trying to cancel, and my subscription is still active — meaning I will now have to take further steps to block future charges myself.

This behavior is a clear example of unfair and deceptive business practices, intentionally creating barriers to cancellation and wasting customers’ time.
It reflects a lack of transparency, dishonesty, and disrespect for consumer rights.

Stay away from this platform unless you want to be trapped into ongoing payments you never consented to.

Real scammers.
This company ripped me off with their Albatross membership which got renewed and I asked immediately to cancel it and their "customer service" answered me two weeks later in order to buy time so that I get charged for another billing cycle. I feel pity for this company. I do not recommend it at all!

That was very easy to have contact with Marcel very helpful

The Company responded to my Email very clearly and fulfilled my request.

Man kommt nicht in sein Profil, um sein Account wieder zu löschen, wenn man nicht zahlendes Mitglied ist. Es kommt ständig eine Fehlermeldung, obwohl man angemeldet ist. Meine Bewertung: "0 Sterne".

I requested cancellation of my membership in 2023, however it has still not ben registered nor accepted by Internations, until this day. I finally got confirmation that they cancelled my membership.

This is a deceitful and stealing organization with events that are mediocre at best. They have no interest in actually encouraging connections, but are merely focused on grabbing money from its members.

I would not suggest anyone ever to sign up with this organization. A complete waste of time and money

I’ve had a frustrating experience with InterNations regarding their membership policies. After facing an issue with refunds and cancellation, I attempted to contact their support team multiple times—only to be met with complete silence.

It appears that once a customer raises concerns related to refunds, the platform becomes unresponsive. This lack of transparency and accountability makes me question the platform’s integrity.

For a service that promotes global connection and community, it’s disheartening to see such poor communication practices. I would caution others to be mindful of this before committing to a paid membership. A genuine platform should prioritize its members' concerns, not avoid them.

I hope InterNations improves its customer support moving forward.

Declined membership without providing a valid reason. Way to pursue your mission of making expats feel welcome 🙌

The intellectual gravitas of those who participate in the discussions I've participated in are most suited to a classroom of 8 year olds! If as I did, you run foul of the moderator (who displays all the talents of an insecure and controlling personality) for whom any comment that falls outside of her narrow purview is met with unwarranted and quite frankly offensive responses. She blocked my use of the "Hand Emoji" and then criticizes me for not using it! She is only comfortable when handling comments which clearly demonstrate that the questioner displays little or no knowledge of the subject under discussion and then accuses me of posting messages which are "demanding and aggressive," i.e. I pose challenging questions for which she has no cogent response. Ironically the subject matter, the Moral Compass is a subject that I have studied for decades and yet the moderator in this case displays all the characteristics of one for whom the meaning of which completely eludes her! Her reaction is to block my comments and also, not unsurprisingly has banned me from her discussion platform! Classic case of "If you can't stand the heat, get out of the kitchen!!"

Can't join because of country of origin. What a joke of a website

I was a member of Internations for many years and attended their events in Moscow occasionally. In 2022 I moved to Portugal and found that my account with Internations was no longer recognised and I tried to register again. And got the message that their admin rejected me, because they care a lot about who joins their community! Guys, I completely understand that you "shut down" your activities in Russia back to 2022. But if you think you can impose "personal sanctions" against me just because I'm Russian and was born in Moscow (the only information you asked for when I registered) - you're not an "expat community", you're "the community of prejudiced opinions", and I'd like to stay away from such a community, indeed.
