I like this platform and I signed up to get snail mail pals. It would be nice to have more features for free but overall a great website!

I've tried a few sites and social media groups for pen pals. Global Penfriends is by far the best for making legitimate connections! Of course there have been one or two who seemed like a good match and flaked, but I've made a few meaningful connections with lots of letters and communication. This is the only site I can recommend to others looking to match pen pal connections.

I like the site over all a lot but there are some things I dislike; It happened to me often that I deleted the message I was writing by mistake and the site doesnt save it at all so there is no way of getting it back. Plus you can't delete messages or edit them which is unfortunet. I also would like ro be able to react to individual messages. But besides that I do really enjoy it on here:)))
