I joined Classmates.com to reconnect with old friends and find out where my classmates were and what they were doing.  This site is not very expensive to join and I have enjoyed catching up with people I haven't seen and talked to in many years.  The class I graduated with has not been good about having...

I was one of the first to join classmates over a decade ago. I was busy planning my 20 year high school reunion and after almost 2 years of hard work, and being listed as the event contact, Classmates opted to remove me and place one of their advertisers in my place (Reunions of America, or such) and... review »

School carries special memories for many people and some have been known to contact former school mates whenever possible in order to reminisce about days gone by and share some personal moments relating to the past. For many, getting in touch is as simple as calling or e-mailing old friends that have been in one's contact list since graduation. But for others, reliving old times isn't so simple because there is no way to find former classmates. Thanks to the internet, this problem is slowly becoming a thing of the past and one web site designed exactly for this purpose is Classmates.com, a web...

I have been a "Gold Member" of Classmates.com for 6 years.  I have had a problem with logging on for three months.  I have contacted them through email and have yet to get the problem resolved.  I am an attorney and will be happy to file a class action on behalf (at no charge) for anyone else that will like to join me demanding a Full Refund.

Well, I wish I had read the reviews here before I took the plunge and got my gold membership. I had a long and happy relationship with Classmates.com - a good 10yrs - until I gave them my money.

The good and the free: I saw names of classmates. It was nice to know they were still around. Depending on how much interest the site wanted to generate, I could read summaries of their lives since school, or college or the military, and for a while I could see pictures. I still go to the site to see if anyone has joined or changed a name - whatever. Latest incentive is an option to send a note, even...

     My husband has a classmates account and just the other night had someone sign in on his account.  When he went to find out who it was he was disscouraged to find out that he had to upgrade to get it.  This is crazy, even the weatherbug doesn't ask for money and you can find the weather ANYWHERE!!  Find a sponsor or something, don't make people trying to find old classmates pay to find their old friends.  Times are hard enough as it is.  I recently moved out of my home state and would love to find people i knew there that are now moved like we did.  Pressure is bad enough now a days,... review »

Not worth it.  You have to be a member to send a message.  You have to be a member to receive a message.  Annual fees are overpriced.  Just not worth it.  Go look at Myspace (free) and see if you can find old classmates there instead.

I had a free membership with Classmates for some time.  However, I was unable to send email messages to former classmates and use other functions on the site without buying a premium membership.  I upgraded and was sorry I did.  I felt it was a total waste of my money.  The info I did obtain about former classmates was way outdated and not of any use to me.

Once you have a free membership, you are going to get gobs of email advertisements trying to get you to pay for an upgraded membership.  They entice with lines such as, "Someone visited your profile...."  They get you thinking that you...

On September 29,2009 I noticed a charge to my debit card from classmates.com. It was for the yearly gold membership. Problem was that I didn't authorize such a purchase. I had purchased a membership in 2008,and because of the economy decided to forgo it this year.

Went to their website and they sure know how to hide their contact information. Many clicks later I finally found a place to email. Told them to put the money back into my account. Here's their first response.

Hello Classmates Member, Thank you for contacting Classmates Member Care. We're more than happy to assist you.

It has been very easy to find my high school friends and nice to be able to stay in touch through Classmates. The best part about is they have updated the site and added new features. You can find out where your friends are located on a map and how far they are from you. I've been happy to see my friends and what their lives have turned out even if it is through Classmates.
