Review:
I've tried joining japancupid. Most of the girls here only looking for caucasian or local japanese. They won't hook up with other asian guys.

Pros:
lots of pretty cute girls

Cons:
girls only look for japanese or caucasian

Review:
My experience started out fine...they never gave me prices, but said they wanted to go over the whole thing with me, first. The lady was nice, we had a great conversation. She took profile, gave me questionaires to fill out, was very informative and interested. She seemed on track. But she would not give me prices. We used almost 2 hours of my time and elove's payroll for her time. At the end of the whole ordeal, she finally showed me prices, I was shocked at just under 4000.00 for 1.5 years, and that was only for 12 contacts!! That was the basic package. Okay, I realize when they are hand-matching your profile with another person, there is time involved. (But 4000.00 worth???) She said there was a discount, and in the end, if I paid 200.00 today, I would only have to pay 99.00 a month for the next 1.5 yrs. I said I needed to go home and think about it, and then she was unprofessionally rude. Basically the company would not respect my need to make a wise decision for myself. She was very pressuring and the more she pressured me, the more I shut down. I left feeling humiliated and ashamed for going there, and for being treated they way they do business. It really shook me up that I even went there and was in a situation with a business who really portrayed themselves as up and up, but had absolutely zero respect for me as a customer. It was one of the worst experiences I have ever had. I would love to see them turned into the better business bureau. They are not out there for the customer, and I would like to know why (since they have some 40,000 clients as she said) that they would need to charge so much. But the clincher was not the price as much as the treatment of pushing their package as well as slamming me as a potential buyer.

Pros:
None. (?????They make you "feel" comfortable. But so does Satan.)

Cons:
They did not respect me: first repeatedly calling me daily, sometimes twice a day or more, then could not allow me time to make a wise decision for my own life. She expected me to drop everything in my life to get into a contract with them. She treated me totally opposite of the way she started out, then told her boss over the phone that I did a 180. So basically she was lying to him, also. Very, very unprofessional. So scary that I even went there. BE CAREFUL!!

Review:
I joined both JapanCupid and KoreanCupid (same owners) for a while. It is so NOT worth the time or money! First of all, I'm 36 and I may not be 18-20s but I'm not unattractive, desperate or psycho. I joined the sites because I'm planning a trip to Seoul, South Korea and Toyko, Japan for a few months this Fall and thought it best to make some friends first.
I posted my interest on both sites as "Penpals" with both men and women close to my age from those areas with shared common interest. Although I never paid for the JapanCupid site, I did pay for 1 month of KoreanCupid and just as soon as I paid...sudden silence!
On JapanCupid, the only ones that contacted me were..OO..scary! A couple of grandpa's well into their 60s, a few prison parolees types and of course a few over-sexually charged teens (18-19) but few Japanese men and never any even slightly close to a sociable age. I'm a friendly person that is open-minded but grandpa wanted a live-in-nurse/maid (with benefits), the prison parolee cussed me out for refusing to Skype and the teen boy sent me pics (more like a photo album) of his "manhood". oO Yeah, thanks J & K Cupids for rocking my world the wrong way!
I also refused to get "verified" because it was not a trust-worthy method to me and I wouldn't risk Identity Thieft. The decent members seemed to be fake and the ones that weren't were either creepy or nonresponsive. It was equally the same with the females claiming to also be seek friendships.

Pros:
I was always surprised and somewhat entertained by the members that contacted me. I'm sure that the creepers were real.

Cons:
I was on there for over 6 months and I wasted money on a month of "Gold" membership and never met anyone.

Review:
The bottom line is, How About We is a scam. You cannot communicate with anyone unless you upgrade (i.e. pay) which makes absolutely no sense. After reading other comments on the same issue, I posted comments to the site itself and to their Facebook page. What I got back was typical cooperate speak for "sorry you have to pay to play." Then several hours later I got an email saying I had two visitors to my profile. Doesn't really matter if it was 2 or 200, I cannot respond to them unless I upgrade. Not happening. Shame on these jerks for putting this site out there knowing that they will not give anything back in return for your money. Seriously, it's as bad as eHarmony.

Pros:
None.

Cons:
How many ways can you say SCAM? Here's the definition of Scam from Webster's
Noun. An instance of the use of dishonest methods to acquire something of value.

Review:
Thank you to all the eLove matchmakers for introducing me to the love of my life.
I joined the Rhode Island office and was introduced to a beautiful woman from Connecticut; we’ll be married in Newport this summer.

She was the fifth woman you set me up with and I knew after the first date we would be together for life. The only question was… did she feel the same about me? She didn’t fall for me as fast as I fell for her but she finally realized I was the one for her.

Thank you again for all the advice and encouragement you gave me throughout the membership… you changed my life.

Pros:
The staff was very friendly and helpful...

Cons:
Be patient it may take some time…

Review:
I cannot believe!! I considere myself and educated smart woman. Last night I was pressured and signed up for this costly service. Woke up in the middle of the night, unable to sleep thinking about the money I just spent. Went on line and did something I should have done before doing this. These reviews almost give me a heart attack!!!! I am so frustrated, I read the contract and says I have three days to cancel if I mail the contract certified mail. I am doing it firts thing in the morning and they better return my money.

I hope this is helpful for others out there, I was a fool and don't feel very proud of me right now.
