RedHotPie Review March 2020

The coronavirus (SARS-CoV-2) severely restricts our social life as we know it. In particular, it is currently no longer possible to get to know someone in "offline life". However, Red Hot Pie and other dating sites still remain as an option! The desire for love, a new partner or some fun remains with many singles. Especially if we think about the next weeks, the yearning for closeness is growing for many and there is a curfew in many places. Despite all of this, online dating is the safest way to still get to know someone, chat or have video chats.Therefore, no single has to be afraid of loneliness - many like-minded people are waiting for you online!Unfortunately we keep hearing that singles meet, although social contacts are officially restricted. Please keep yourself informed about the legal situation in your area and comply with the prescribed rules.Always keep in mind: there is also a time after the corona crisis! What could be nicer than finally having a date when everyone can get out again? In addition, many dating sites currently have particularly great discounts and promotions due to the corona crisis. That is why you should definitely take a look at Red Hot Pie - time will pass by much faster if you ride the quarantine out with somebody on your (digital) side. Maybe right now the right person is waiting for you to write the first message?

The signup process of RedHotPie is simple and doesn't require much information. All you need is your email or a linked Facebook account. There is a verification email as well once you've successfully filled out the needed information.

While it may seem to be appealing to have an easy registration process, we can't help but conclude that this makes the site vulnerable to fake users and profiles.

RedHotPie is open for everyone regardless of gender or relationship status. Step two of the process lets you choose whether you are straight, transgender, or transvestite/crossdresser (tv/cd). This step also asks about your relationship status and if you are creating an account with your partner or group. Couples and groups are very much welcome and can explore any of the special features of the site. 

The third and fourth steps of registration let you describe yourself by choosing the right icon for your body type, height, and ethnicity.  It also allows you to declare who you are looking for, the age range, and your intentions about the relationship.

There are different ways on how you can communicate with other members: simple messaging style, webchat, text chat, and flirt.

• Message- Simple messaging is quite similar to sending emails. You may also see the status of the message whether it's unread or opened already. 
• Webchat- Webchat allows you and the other member see each other and have a virtual face-to-face conversation.
• Text Chat- The text chat is where you can send and receive instant messages. It works the same way as the Messenger app of Facebook. To enter the chatroom, you should have an Adobe Flash plug-in. Quick protip: it works best in a Mozilla Firefox browser.
• Flirt -Flirt is one of the special features of RedHotPie.  It helps members, especially guests, connect with other users by letting them send default messages. You can choose from three categories: ice breakers, to the point, and cheeky.

Search Options

You can change your search settings based on username, gender, age, location, and/or their preferences. There are also advanced search settings for premium members.

If you don't want to receive any messages for the moment, you may adjust the settings and activate the lock feature. Unlock it and receive messages again for your convenience.

When checking the inbox, messages highlighted in red are from premium members. Those highlighted in green are unread at the time of the login.

Using the contacting features is available for all paying members. Fortunately, guest members can also have the chance to send messages to a match – somebody who meets your criteria given that you also meet his/her criteria.

For members who wish to block certain users sending inappropriate messages or showing improper behaviour, you may report them using the "Report Abuse" link.

Each member has a choice of what to show on his or her profile. Just go to the "Account and Profile" section and edit the fields that you want to change. You may also add information on the parts that you've skipped before. 

A lot of members are open when it comes to their profile information. Even sensitive topics such as intimate, sexual, and fetish interests are usually filled out by the members.

Photos are optional. However, profiles with photos look more genuine and more likely to become interesting to other users. You may also add separate folders for public, private, and amateur picture sets.

Other information includes physical appearance, lifestyle, general interests, and activity. 

While completing your profile, you have the option to put "Ask me" and "Do not display." Do this if you prefer to be mysterious or want to have more privacy.

Aside from the remarkable price differences among the three membership packages, Premium, PremiumPlus, and Platinum packages show a great distinction on what each could offer. 

Premium

Premium membership allows you to send 5 daily messages, view private or restricted photos, have 2 cam views, and be the third priority on the listing or search results.

Premium Plus

PremiumPlus covers all the premium benefits with additional 15 messages (a total of 20), second priority listing, access to listed phone numbers, and private chat requests.

Platinum

Platinum membership has a total of 9 benefits, covering both the aforementioned packages, having a total of 50 messages daily, 3 webcam views, first listing priority, mailbox highlighted messages, guests who match your criteria can message you and view your listed contact details.

Membership is set for auto-renew by default. You may change this setting if you prefer to control your renewal and payment.

For membership longer than one month, you have to pay the full amount (price per month x number of months).
