InterNations Recenzje 

Would not recommend. There are other, local,communuties for expats in moat cities, some good and some bad - I would say internations is one of the bad ones (and I wouldnt call it "local community" just some giant corporation trying to make money)

Well my experience was terrible as i had to help a friend as he was threatened with debt collectors for not renewing his membership

I noticed too that all the 5 star reviews have only left 1 review and most of the 1 star reviews have left many reviews. This suggests to me that their 5 star reviews are fake.

I responded to a guy and then realised he was a creep looking to connect for the wrong reasons. I told him I would block him and not respond to any of his messages. I didn't know how to block him and Federico responded to my request for help and told me how to do it. It seems that occasionally we get messages from creepy guys.

I am very grateful. I made a mistake shortly after my registration and the team was very understanding and helpful. It’s a lovely platform... Thanks again.

When I first applied for membership with InterNations, my application was initially declined. However, after sincerely explaining my reasons and motivations for joining to the support center, they reconsidered my case and ultimately granted me membership. I am truly grateful to InterNations for not rigidly adhering to rules, but instead responding with flexibility to individual circumstances and giving me a second chance.

I wish I had read the reviews before joining this shitty internations. Learn from me and avoid it all all cost it is not worth it. they charge membership fee and yet they dont offer any activities that is worth it. all the activities offered you can easily participate without being a member of this organization. They make the cancellation of subscription hidden in away that you cant easily opt out but will be so fast to deduct the money. Shame on all of you for exploiting expats. I hope most expats will realize they don't need to pay for anything to this organization. DO NOT SIGN UP FOR ANY MEMBERSHIP ; THEY WILL TAKE YOUR MONEY AND OFFER NO TANGIBLE ACTITIVITES; WHICH YOU ARE STILL EXPECTED TO PAY FOR.

They are a scam - I cannot cancel and cannot access the site to cancel - I am reporting them to the ACCC to have them investigated in Australia- DO NOT JOIN - I am having them fined be careful it’s a trap

I can't log into my account. And there is no support option to help me. I have already paid for a full year and now can't access the app or the site or anything. This feels like a scam.

It's hard to cancel your membership. I want to meet people. In two cities, most people were not really expats. Most were local and either trying to sell something like advertising, or insurance, or trying find a rich foreign boyfriend.

This is a scam - NEVER NEVER NEVER share any type of credit card information with them. They will use to reclaim money including when you stop subscription. Illegal scam and practices.

Automatically invoiced for a year with no previous alert or message. They offer me a free month to try the suscription. Yesterday I got invoiced for a year and I emailed right away (1h after the charge). They are just refusing to cancel it and give my money back. This is just stealing people money and should not be allowed. I did not know the membership would be automatically invoiced for 1 year after my month trial and now they want me to pay for something I will not use? I will take legal actions on that so RUN AWAY FROM HERE.

This "club" finds ways to debit you automatic a full membership after a year, even if you are not a paid member and you do not wisth be one. You need to use a password to cancel when you are in the website and there is no way to find this password. Everything is done to keep you captive. They do not reply to messages, obviousely. Avoid absolutely.
The reply from Interntions shows that they have no intention to refund, with the automatic debit they conceal they found a trick to mislead their clients....

J'ai été consule plusieurs années à internations. Le fait d'être simplement membre ou consul permet de faire la connaissance de gens de différents pays, de s'engager dans des discussions, de sympathiser. Cet aspect est plutôt agréable. Le fait de participer à des 'events' vous permet de sortir et de découvrir des lieux différents dans votre ville et de passer un bon moment.

Par contre le rôle de consul est un peu compliqué car il faut bien le reconnaître beaucoup de membres font preuve d'impolitesse. Beaucoup s'inscrivent à des évènements et ne viennent pas. Ils n'annulent pas. Ce qui n'est pas correct vis à vis du consul et l'est encore moins vis à vis du bar ou du restaurateur quand vous devez réserver. Certains oublient tout simplement ou pensent que parce qu'ils paient, ils n'ont pas de compte à rendre. Pendant les 6 années années passées en tant que consule sur internations, je n'ai vu aucune amélioration de la situation malgré le fait qu'internations dit prendre en compte ce problème. Certains consuls qui ne veulent pas se casser la tête font avec et d'autres demandent aux inscrits de confirmer leur présence mais ce n'est pas simple non plus.
Si vous comptez vous faire des amis ce n'est peut-être pas le bon endroit car chacun vient passer un bon moment sans plus. Les relations restent superficielles. Le point positif c'est que vous passez un bon moment.
Très peu de gens veulent être consuls, on comprend pourquoi. Pour ce qui concerne les ambassadeurs qui organisent des soirées où tout le monde peut venir : les official events, ils sont dans leur petit coin entre eux et ne se soucient pas des nouveaux membres et ne circulent pas pour parler avec les convives pendant les soirées, dans ma ville c'est comme cela.
Malgré tout internations permet de ne pas rester seul chez soi et de passer quelques moments agréables.
Beaucoup de gens se plaignent car ils n'arrivent pas à stopper le renouvellement de leurs paiements quand ils souhaitent arrêter. Cela me fait hésiter à m'inscrire en tant que membre 'albatros' pour pouvoir participer aux activités dans des groupes. Internations devrait régler ce problème rapidement.

I have tried two times to get a member. First time the request was decliened within two minutes (13.07.25) . Looks like a robot is reviewing the requests.
After second request rejection (15.97.25) I wrote to info(at)internations(dot)org and received help. Finally the 3rd request was accepted. All information I provided before where true and complet. I'm concerned now to recommend my friends to join as well and make the same experience.

I bring a diverse and hands-on background in business development, project coordination, and international collaboration. Over the past several years, I have worked closely with both local and international partners to establish and manage ventures in sectors such as LED lighting, handicrafts, and pet products. My responsibilities have included drafting formal business plans, coordinating multi-national partnerships, overseeing production networks, and handling legal-financial documentation for cross-border investments.

I have also been actively involved in setting up sustainable and community-based projects in Bangladesh, such as the "Wholesaler to Industrialist" LED initiative, which aims to empower small-town entrepreneurs through regional factory networks. These experiences have sharpened my skills in communication, negotiation, problem-solving, and multicultural team coordination.

Furthermore, I am deeply interested in social impact ventures and have recently initiated plans to establish a senior citizen care NGO in Estonia. My goal is to combine commercial expertise with social responsibility to create meaningful, scalable change.

I believe in the power of global connection and mutual support, and I truly appreciate the good cooperation and welcoming spirit of the Internations community. It provides a valuable platform for professionals to share ideas, collaborate across borders, and grow together.

Signed for trial but never used. After the trial without any notice I was charged for a year's subscription fee. Tried to contact to get a refund but they wouldn't accept my refund request.

Internations Madrid: ¿evento social o negocio disfrazado?

Lo que antes era una oportunidad para conectar expatriados con Madrid, hoy se siente más como una fórmula repetitiva: entradas cada vez más caras, bebidas mediocres y cero picoteo. Los organizadores parecen centrarse más en las ganancias que en la experiencia, mientras que muchos asistentes solo buscan ligar.

Afortunadamente, la ciudad ofrece mejores alternativas. Cocorico, Diviértete Mitad y otros eventos demuestran que sí es posible combinar calidad con precios justos.

Internations sigue ahí, pero cada vez más desolador. Para quienes prefieren pagar más por menos, sigue siendo una opción. Para los demás, es hora de buscar nuevos horizontes.

Terrible company. Unreliable. Rude staff. A total waste of time. Stay away.

I've lived abroad for ~30 years, and I'm in the process of moving to yet another country, so I have been looking for a new online expat community to match. A friend suggested InterNations, so I applied.

Much to my surprise, my application was rejected (possibly because I did not provide my full name, date of birth and city of birth, but I take my privacy seriously). Out of curiosity, I did an online search which led me here to InterNations' Trustpilot page.

Well, after reading the numerous negative reviews about this company (and their uniformly patronizing responses), I'm now much less disappointed!

Changing my neagtive review to a positive one. After a unwanted invoice issue the company were very kind and solved the issue. Very much appreciated! Thank you kindly. I would suggest that customers would receive a heads up before the trial month is over so that they can chose to cancel their membership if they don't want a premium membership.
