Content on Roomies is created by members, Roomies does not visit properties or vet members in person. To help us ensure inappropriate content and behaviour is removed please use the report link on the listing pages or in the messaging system.
Communicating outside the website makes it very hard for Roomies to uphold these standards, but issues can still be reported to support@roomies.com. Make sure you include screenshots that clearly show the content which breaches these standards and the email or mobile number of the user.
