crushme99 Posted June 27, 2023 Share Posted June 27, 2023 I am in the USA and in the past I have been able to access written reviews on RentMen by using the VPN at The Fastest Free Proxy HIDE.ME Easily access blocked content and websites with our FREE web proxy. Hide your real IP address and... However, that does not seem to work on the new RM website layout. I have tried all three proxy locations and checked all the boxes under More Options. Anyone else have this problem? Or is there a new and better way to view the written reviews? Since i don't use a VPN for any other purpose, I prefer not to subscribe to one. Macbook and iPhone user here. Thanks, guys! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DaveOrDavid Posted June 27, 2023 Share Posted June 27, 2023 I think it's related to whatever they've done to the rent.men site today. Almost every option I click on I'm returned to the main page to click the "Agree" to enter the site. I don't see how to view the results in Grid display versus List display. I attempted to send a message to the "webmaster" by clicking on a link under my profile and it just goes to a blank screen. I just checked the hide.me site and you are still able to view the written reviews if you access the profile using rentmen.eu instead of rent.men, so I think the issue is related to the recent release on the rent.men site. I think you should try to access the profile under rentmen.eu to copy/paste the reviews link into the hide.me site or change the part of your info copied from rent.men to rentmen.eu. crushme99 and rvwnsd 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MikeH10 Posted June 27, 2023 Share Posted June 27, 2023 i also use Hide.me - and +1 to what DaveOrDavid said, using the rentmen.eu domain still works fine as its using the legacy site design. helpfully that stays the same! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sared85 Posted June 27, 2023 Share Posted June 27, 2023 You can also use the new rent.men format, if you just remove the “app” sub domain after you copy and paste the link into Hide.Me Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They seem to have redirected "app.rent.men" to "rent.men," but instead of redirecting to the specific page they are redirecting to the home page. That's really sloppy. There is also an issue with the way pictures display on Windows computers. Interestingly, I couldn't locate "report a bug" on rent.men v 7.0 but was able to do so when I reverted to v 6.0. Like I said, sloppy. Walt and DaveOrDavid 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NYXboy Posted June 28, 2023 Share Posted June 28, 2023 I hate the new site too. They should see how many people are hating the new site and fire whoever is in charge of the "upgrade" I can still read reviews when I use my VPN on my laptop.

MikeH10 Posted June 28, 2023 Share Posted June 28, 2023 this might be widely known, but in case it isn't -- you can still use the older site via the URL https://v6.rent.men - not sure how long they'll leave the option, but hopefully it sticks around!

Thanks for posting this link !!! I'm updating my shortcut to use this link as long as RM leaves it in place and accessible. I was unaware of this option and a RM website message response advised only the new site was available or we could still use rentmen.eu. + ButchAtl 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hope this helps. Thanks for the info. I received a webmaster response message and he showed me a screenshot. I had to scroll down to view the option and I moved it over to Grid and attempted several steps to make sure it would apply, but it didn't work for me. I went back to the current rent.men site and clicked on "Show 300+ profiles" after making the adjustment and it worked. I wasn't logged in the search only showed NYC (which appears at the top of choices) I clicked on search all locations, but it didn't change the results from NYC. I'm going to keep using the V6 option as long as it is accessible. Thanks for your info.

+ azdr0710 Posted September 5, 2023 Share Posted September 5, 2023 I've had trouble the last couple weeks or so using the hide me proxy the way I'd used it with success for the last few years to read the hidden-in-the-US reviews.......I now get three interminably bouncing dots........however, with some forum searching, I found @BuffaloKyle's suggested link......works great now and is even quicker than before........just paste the provider's reviews page in the box and "go"......no "are you 18?" check!.....no need to download the app or what-have-you......I don't use a VPN, but just want to do the occasional rentmen text review check....... https://nl.hideproxy.me/go.php?u=2dtFY%2FfjXvDpW0ZeL%2B5%2FiifwfpTiqsCB0sjU%2B0r3s59OXaxR&b=31&f=norefer TorontoDrew, peter831 and borgerback 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
