Terrible and Outdated website that's controlled by a narcissist. There are several other site's that do a way better job for free.
Pros -None
-Zero
-Zilch
-Nil
Cons -Difficult to delete your account (It took me a couple of months)
-All profile info requires approval (by one person)
-Minor violations sometimes result in a banned account without warning.
-Many people that are not the "Bear" type are denied an account.
-Many people that are not Caucasian are denied an account.
-The site is useless unless you pay, which is also useless because so little amount actually pay.
-Some members have reported that their images from Bear411 were found on BearPorn.com
-Website uses technology from 1995. It's very outdated.
-Lots of fake accounts, many include photo's stolen from the internet and it's speculated that the webmaster is behind it.
-Your conversations are being monitored.
I've been a member of AFF for 2 years now and am based in the UK. In my experience only about 1 in 5 members you will interact with will actually be serious about meeting.
I've met one lady locally and another from a different part of the country, If you are UK based and looking to have several different hook ups you probably have to be willing to travel. Although if you live in London you may find more people locally than if you live in the North East. I'm extremely large in the trouser department and that has put some potential meets up as it was too intimidating for them so perhaps my success rate is limited in that sense.
If you are decent looking, not overweight, can converse normally and don't have a micro sized cock you can potentially do pretty well on AFF. If you verify your profile and also get a testimonial early off the bat, then this will increase your chances.
Pros There are some genuine people looking to meet.
You can find people who are looking for adult casual encounters.
Cons Men really need to pay for a membership in order to make enough contact with women to close hook ups. Women can rely on a non paid membership and still get meets.
Most amazing to me is that they are pushing for mainstream status so badly, they are actually running TV ads. I have to hand it to whoever came up with
the Carousel, which makes the whole site basically a SCAM. Once member realize they get tangible, spendable "coins" as rewards for saying "YES, I want to meet this person", all bets are off. So John in NYC gets an email that "Mary wants to meet you!", only to find out that "Mary", if she even exists, lives is Mexico City. In the unlikely event that she's reasonable local and possibly a match, it's guaranteed that you won't get a reply from her - she's just collecting coins by spinning the roulette wheel!!!
Pros Not many. Paid membership, zero or nearly zero communications, zero dates. Better layout than some sites, but does it matter? Like a pretty car that won't start?
Cons Clever (not in a good way). 2 ways to take your money. First you pay and think you're a full member. Then they sell you "coins" to contact "good matches". But wait, you can get SOME coins by lying at the Carousel, saying you want to meet every member who comes up, collecting 40 coins a day. Or just send more money to Zoosk. AND to turn off auto-renew...well, you better start trying to figure out how months ahead of time, because no refunds once you've paid for a subscription. Despite signing up online, they TELL YOU THAT YOU MUST CALL THEM ON THE PHONE to cancel!!! This is so f'ked up it should be illegal. Just sayin...
Being an entrepreneur myself I signed up to this site a few days ago thinking it might be a good place to meet single ladies with similar interests.
It's free to sign up, but if you want to actually do anything other than look at profiles, you'll need to upgrade.
I started of with a search of profiles in my area and received over 1600 results, wow this sites bigger than I thought, how come I haven't heard of it before?
I soon figured out why.
Out of 1600 or so results, probably only 20 or so had been online in the last month, which means only about 20 have been recently active, the rest are simply archived results and not really worth anything.
And since only upgraded members would be able to even read any email that I send, then that means you would need to filter down the 20 to separate the upgraded members from the "I filled out the free online sign up in the last month" group.
Which would bring the results to just 3 or 4 at the most ( and that's being optimistic) .
And of all the profiles I looked at, I only found about 2 that have any indication on there profiles that they are entrepreneurs or interested in the subject.
When I signed up I made sure to sign up with minimal details of myself, no profile, no pics just basic specs like age, gender etc
Surprising though I have received an unusual amount of interest,. everyday I get a message from a different female that's interested in this no name, no pic guy.
Of course, if I want to read anything more than the opening line, I would have to whip out my credit card and upgrade my membership....
Now all these women seem to be older than me and quite average looking at best, which isn't what I would expect from fake profiles, I would expect younger, good looking ladies looking for a entrepreneur / business type guy.
But It's hard not to shake your head and think pfft, when they all start with cut and paste opening lines like.... "Hi there" and "let's have a laugh" the kind of generic cut and paste rubbish you would expect from fake profiles managed by outsourced freelancers from countries where English is the second language.
So my personal assessment of the site is that I think I'll keep my credit card safe and sound in my wallet.
Pros Didn't find any
Cons Very misleading about actual active profile numbers. Deceptive in trying to use fake profiles to get you to upgrade.
Very cool setup and content, you see lots of nude girls, sluts saying dirty things, constant flows of "to good to be true" woman that you would see one after another boom boom boom. I had a great profile, great pics that get me hit on alot in the outside. But after checking out profiles and sending message after message to DOZENS of chicks that were gettable and only supposedly living "10 to 30 miles away" from me....I got a bunch of VIEWED ME's but not one single damn word to even hint at a real person or real response. I feel dumb. $8 gone. Gay
Pros Hot chicks in nothing. Too beat off to...?
Cons Everything from the dicks who made it to the ID's they've probly stolen and messed up because of it.
Site doesn't look 'Islamic' at all. I wish it was more controlled because the amount of creeps on that site is too damn high. Suspend the account of pervs!
Hardly any men from my area. All i keep getting interest is from those creep ass Algerians and overseas Arabs who are like my grandad's age!
Pros Free
Cons Creep ass thirsty idiots on there.
Site owners need to control what's going on.
Free for ladies but men have got to pay. I don't think there's anyone genuine on there! Time wasters and full on gandus! Married drug dealers & kiddy fiddlers preying on vulnerable women. You report them and the bitch admin doesn't do anything!
Shakti kapoor lookalikes all looking for an untouched virgin who looks like kareena kapoor. They're all like "Islam is important to me... I want someone to take me to Jannah." I don't think they even know their first kalimahs.
BBWDesire is a total scam! There are 2 categories of women. One is labeled "FC" with a yellow star, of which in the lengthy terms and conditions, tells you that they are generated profiles or FANTASY CUTIES. The other is labeled "SM", or standard member with a blue star, these are SUPPOSE to be real women, but the they are also fakes. I was able to back track several photos that were lifted off porn sites, So in total, STAY AWAY FROM BBWDESIRE, ITS TOTALLY FAKE!!!!!
Pros The photos can be back tracked to BBW porn sites, so you can see them there.
They use what you say about yourself and send it out as an Introductory message for 2 weeks after signing up. These Introductory messages get sent to who they call matches. The worst part is is that somehow they got it wrong about me and made recipients angry. They, also, limit message writing to 15 minutes, so, if you're getting involved in writing a message, you make lose everything if you take too long to write a message. That is a double negative. I will be departing after my membership, a monthly, expires after 1 month.
The Veronika group of companies is internet fraud on a massive scale. Owned by corrupt would be politician Danilevskaya Nadezhda Leonidovna. The companies operate illegally within the Ukraine. ALL the women are rewarded for posting their profiles and chatting or letter writing. Veronika provides most of the profiles for the major scam players, Anastasia date and ua dreams.
Pros If a woman is on veronika you know for certain she is a scammer.
Cons FRAUD! This site steals money from gullible men. Every interaction on the site is a case of wire fraud
Met this guy there and hes a sex hunger and keep on sending naked pics . Hes one of those scumbags in military cupid beaware!! Hes not in military hes pretending to be .. So he can scam some naked pics in return . He was amused and get frustrated of me cz i wont even send him my naked pics in return .
Pros Military cupid site is fine but there are pigs around and scumbags
I am a user from this dating site since a few weeks. It gathers to Colombian women mostly, living in Colombia.
Knowing Spanish is a must as most girls have no real English skills.
The profiles are not really filtered, neither the website well controlled. More than once, I ended up with some kind of prostitutes and/or cons artists (asking for money) and even when reporting the case to the website's staff, their answer was worth nothing: block this person.
While they let the bad profile still acting (and preying) on others users.
I believe Colombiancupid is making most of their money from tourists looking for a fling or local prostitute, thus the reason they are not acting against such bad cases (prostitution seems legal in Colombia).
I was looking for something serious, but didn't find it there. I don't recommend this site unless talking to prostitutes or cons artists is your daily bread.
Pros Easily to navigate
Nice and functional chat feature
Lots of profiles
Cons Too many prostitutes and cons-artists
Management doing almost nothing against them
I place a profile on meetbi.com last night and there are so many bisexual women in my area. I have get many winks from other bi women, and will be fing my match.
1. Lunch Actually is the most expensive dating agency in singapore.
Currently they charge $2100 for 3 dates, $2300 for 5 dates and $2600 for 10 dates.
Compare this with 2 other SDN Accredited dating agencies who also provide personalised matchmaking services.
Champagne JSG charge $1200 for 6 dates & $1700 for 12 dates.
Dating Moments charge average $175 a date. Their price is transparent and shown clearly on their website.
2. Lunch Actually refuse to tell you their price when you call them to enquire.
They give you all kinds of rubbish replies like our price package is dependant on the type of partner you are looking for, ask you go for the initial consultation than they will see which platform is more suitable for you.
Anyone with abit of common sense knows this is nonsense.
If you see the price package is dependant on the type of partner you look for, does it mean that if I look for a old & ugly partner it will be very cheap, if I look for a partner that is young & pretty than it will be very expensive?
As for the platforms, basically they only have the expensive personalised matchmaking services or their esynrochology.
Once you go down for their initial consultation they will hard sell you. If you say it is too expensive than they will hard sell you their esynrochology services.
3. Lunch Actually package comes with free image workshop and coaching workshop.
This is actually just part of their attempt to sell you more package and earn more money.
When you go for the free image workshop the consultant will hard sell you the 6 hours personalised shopping trip at $888.
If you say its too expensive she will hardsell you the $488 for 3 hours personalised shopping trip.
When you go for the free coaching workshop, she will try to hardsell you the coaching package at the most expensive of $3900.
If you say its too expensive than she will slowly go down to the $2900, $1900 and than finally the $900 coaching package.
If you sign up the $900 package, it just comes with a free online video for you to watch, than a 1 hour coaching session, a courage warmup session & a meaningful dinner.
During the 1 hour coaching session, you will not have the opportunity to ask any questions because she will be busy trying to hardsell and pester you to upgrade your package to the most expensive of $3900 so she can hit her quota and earn more commission.
The courage warmup session is basically useless & nonsense.
The coach bring you to plaza singapore to approach the opposite gender on the streets to talk to them.
Anyone with abit of common sense knows this is useless and a total waste of time.
Meaningful dinner is not a speedating dinner. There is no rotation of seats.
They say is for you to practise your communication skills by talking to the participants which is basically nonsense and a waste of time.
The most expensive $3900 coaching package they basically just increase the number of useless meaingful dinner and courage warmup sesssions.
They also say you are entitled to 1 year of unlimited coaching.
Sounds like a very good deal, but in reality it is not.
Lunch Actually opening hours is Monday to Saturday 10am to 7pm.
Obviously on weekdays you need to work and you cant book a appointment to go down.
Their saturdays are always fully booked and you need to book in advance.
You can roughly only get to book 1 saturday a month for a 1 hour session which basically means in 1 year, you book 12 sessions which total to 12 hours of coaching sessions for $3900.
Now does this sound like a good deal?
Lunch Actually Consultants are trained to give alot of excuses.
If you say you have to wait very long for matches, they say it is because they are trying to find good matches for you.
After the 1st date, you have up to 7 days which you can terminate your membership and get a refund.
But it is definetly not a 100% refund!
There will be a deduction of $550 for admin fees. If you have gone for the image workshop and/or coaching workshop there will be further deduction.
I am not sure of the exact amount of deduction but it is pretty expensive.
eg. You paidd $2600 for 10 dates package. You decide to terminate after the 1st date.
You get refund of $2600 $550 admin fees - image workshop - coaching workshop, You get just around 1k plus in refunds.
You are basically paying $550 for a 1 date with Lunch Actually!
Now, a typical speedating event that comes with lunch or dinner cost around $50.
You are better off spending your $550 to attend 10 speedating events that comes with free lunch or dinner, than to spend it on a 1 date with Lunch Actually!
All the positive reviews here are fake. Just look up me on the net, David Brunner, the Stupid American. I can provide you will all the fake pics, profiles, women who have boyfriends, who are married, etc. at this fake crap site.
They create fake reviews here because this site does not check identity. If you want to check yourself come to me, I will give you instructions on how to find out about the fake profiles at Veronikalove. ALL PAY BY LETTER SITES SCAM!!!!
Pros none
Cons There isn't a worse dating site on the net. It isn't even a dating site. It is a ripoff sex cam site.
Usually I don't write positive reviews, but this time I decided to let you guys know this website is the best of what I've tried and there were plenty.
sign up is fast and easy, gives you an access to all pictures and information right away. I received few letters and even got a chance to reply without paying a penny! I am happy with veronikalove and sure to find here what I've been looking for.
This site is full of bogus profiles. First of all it's not very mobile friendly. With constant popups trying to steal your money if you do not pay attention. Like others state you get cryptic one line replies that's designed to keep you hanging on. They even tried to rip me off by charging me got one of their fake sister sites, yet the kept telling me they had ve no record of the charges.So I had the charge reversed. I have never been in a worse dating site period. You have been warned, stay away.
Pros Some nice pictures
Cons Poor navigation, popups and general shitty design.
Not bad. This is not a dating site but is a modern dating agency who meets up with all their clients and find matches manually. Had a good time with this service and met many new friends via the service though no romantic sparks have flown yet. The best is to approach it with the right mindset, be open with your matches and let nature take its course.
Pros - Personalised Consultation and friendly service
- Someone doing the work and booking for you
- Decent "dates" with new and interesting people you otherwise may not have met. Its important to keep an open mind when you do such things.
Cons - On the pricey side. Not an easy investment to make initially and I hesitated after they showed me the price the first time.
Not for everyone but certainly a fun experience so far (:
I joined this website, was swamped with messages, flirts, gifts etc but was unable to respond until l signed up to a package. I chose the 3 day VIP package and found access very restricted. When l complained, I was offered a better deal but was unable to take it up as they said my card mysteriously wouldn't go through even though l checked online at time and there was more than sufficient funds to cover the charge. They cancelled my account and told me call a number or visit chat to take up the offer at a later date. When l tried to take up the better offer l was told I'd have to take put another trial package to qualify.
Rip off city! I have now left the site with over 20 unanswered emails, countless unanswered flirts and unopened gifts. Don't waste your time or your money, no real dating site would've allowed me to leave if l was really that popular.
Scam app. Profiles are not real. Yet to receive any messages or teases from anyone. Claims to show profiles in your zipcode but shows random profiles from apparently anywhere else. No response from their tech support.
I was definately the "Poor decision making Rob Lowe" on this one.
It was my first time i tried such a service and i think it was not mistake. Those people who think that everything is not real come to Ukraine or Russia and you will see their ladies are really as beautiful as they are posted on this site. I have found my funny and kind sweetheart bunny. I love her so so so so much. Thank you Veronika for everything you did for me.
Fake profiles , great for pinpals but meeting up is not likely ... Most likely that cute pic she has posted is not her , fat hogs eating cake and playing internet games ...
Although I can empathise with some of the woes some people might have had I only remember a positive experience. Only one out of about 20 women I had email exchanges with turned out to be a scammer - the bad old Nigerian style inheritance scam. Most women were pleasant, intelligent and sincere (as much as detectable online).
Anyway I eventually found my dream lady offline but I must say in all fairness that this site is worth a chance if you stay level-headed and street/net smart all the time.
If I look for a grain of salt it would be that some of the (apparently immature) female members send SMS style emails, containing 4-5 encrypted words. A major turnoff ladies! I also found it strange that quite a few girls in their twenties contacted me although I requested 40 in my profile.
In essence though it's not a bad site. Also the chat rooms are friendly even though populated mostly by the same crowd.
Side note, a friend of mine found her husband on there and they are still going strong.
fake fraud website
Review about AffairAlertfake profiles, no answer to mails sent. Fake flirts sent to you. Fake mails sent to you with no answers to the questions you pose.
Pros
None none none
Cons
waste of money should be closed for fraud
Not worth your time, Look elsewhere!
Review about Bear411Terrible and Outdated website that's controlled by a narcissist. There are several other site's that do a way better job for free.

Some genuine, some timewasters
Review about Adult FriendfinderI've been a member of AFF for 2 years now and am based in the UK. In my experience only about 1 in 5 members you will interact with will actually be serious about meeting.
I've met one lady locally and another from a different part of the country, If you are UK based and looking to have several different hook ups you probably have to be willing to travel. Although if you live in London you may find more people locally than if you live in the North East. I'm extremely large in the trouser department and that has put some potential meets up as it was too intimidating for them so perhaps my success rate is limited in that sense.
If you are decent looking, not overweight, can converse normally and don't have a micro sized cock you can potentially do pretty well on AFF. If you verify your profile and also get a testimonial early off the bat, then this will increase your chances.
Pros
There are some genuine people looking to meet.
You can find people who are looking for adult casual encounters.
Cons
Men really need to pay for a membership in order to make enough contact with women to close hook ups. Women can rely on a non paid membership and still get meets.
The site is probably 60% time-wasters.
Clever, Innovative Scams built-in
Review about ZooskMost amazing to me is that they are pushing for mainstream status so badly, they are actually running TV ads. I have to hand it to whoever came up with
the Carousel, which makes the whole site basically a SCAM. Once member realize they get tangible, spendable "coins" as rewards for saying "YES, I want to meet this person", all bets are off. So John in NYC gets an email that "Mary wants to meet you!", only to find out that "Mary", if she even exists, lives is Mexico City. In the unlikely event that she's reasonable local and possibly a match, it's guaranteed that you won't get a reply from her - she's just collecting coins by spinning the roulette wheel!!!
Pros
Not many. Paid membership, zero or nearly zero communications, zero dates. Better layout than some sites, but does it matter? Like a pretty car that won't start?
Cons
Clever (not in a good way). 2 ways to take your money. First you pay and think you're a full member. Then they sell you "coins" to contact "good matches". But wait, you can get SOME coins by lying at the Carousel, saying you want to meet every member who comes up, collecting 40 coins a day. Or just send more money to Zoosk. AND to turn off auto-renew...well, you better start trying to figure out how months ahead of time, because no refunds once you've paid for a subscription. Despite signing up online, they TELL YOU THAT YOU MUST CALL THEM ON THE PHONE to cancel!!! This is so f'ked up it should be illegal. Just sayin...
This site Screams dodgy dodgy dodgy !!!

Very misleading about actual active profile numbers. Deceptive in trying to use fake profiles to get you to upgrade.
Terrible and misleading. FAKE!!!!!

The truth about Lunch Actually
Review about Lunch Actually1. Lunch Actually is the most expensive dating agency in singapore.
Currently they charge $2100 for 3 dates, $2300 for 5 dates and $2600 for 10 dates.
Compare this with 2 other SDN Accredited dating agencies who also provide personalised matchmaking services.
Champagne JSG charge $1200 for 6 dates & $1700 for 12 dates.
Dating Moments charge average $175 a date. Their price is transparent and shown clearly on their website.
2. Lunch Actually refuse to tell you their price when you call them to enquire.
They give you all kinds of rubbish replies like our price package is dependant on the type of partner you are looking for, ask you go for the initial consultation than they will see which platform is more suitable for you.
Anyone with abit of common sense knows this is nonsense.
If you see the price package is dependant on the type of partner you look for, does it mean that if I look for a old & ugly partner it will be very cheap, if I look for a partner that is young & pretty than it will be very expensive?
As for the platforms, basically they only have the expensive personalised matchmaking services or their esynrochology.
Once you go down for their initial consultation they will hard sell you. If you say it is too expensive than they will hard sell you their esynrochology services.
3. Lunch Actually package comes with free image workshop and coaching workshop.
This is actually just part of their attempt to sell you more package and earn more money.
When you go for the free image workshop the consultant will hard sell you the 6 hours personalised shopping trip at $888.
If you say its too expensive she will hardsell you the $488 for 3 hours personalised shopping trip.
When you go for the free coaching workshop, she will try to hardsell you the coaching package at the most expensive of $3900.
If you say its too expensive than she will slowly go down to the $2900, $1900 and than finally the $900 coaching package.
If you sign up the $900 package, it just comes with a free online video for you to watch, than a 1 hour coaching session, a courage warmup session & a meaningful dinner.
During the 1 hour coaching session, you will not have the opportunity to ask any questions because she will be busy trying to hardsell and pester you to upgrade your package to the most expensive of $3900 so she can hit her quota and earn more commission.
The courage warmup session is basically useless & nonsense.
The coach bring you to plaza singapore to approach the opposite gender on the streets to talk to them.
Anyone with abit of common sense knows this is useless and a total waste of time.
Meaningful dinner is not a speedating dinner. There is no rotation of seats.
They say is for you to practise your communication skills by talking to the participants which is basically nonsense and a waste of time.
The most expensive $3900 coaching package they basically just increase the number of useless meaingful dinner and courage warmup sesssions.
They also say you are entitled to 1 year of unlimited coaching.
Sounds like a very good deal, but in reality it is not.
Lunch Actually opening hours is Monday to Saturday 10am to 7pm.
Obviously on weekdays you need to work and you cant book a appointment to go down.
Their saturdays are always fully booked and you need to book in advance.
You can roughly only get to book 1 saturday a month for a 1 hour session which basically means in 1 year, you book 12 sessions which total to 12 hours of coaching sessions for $3900.
Now does this sound like a good deal?
Lunch Actually Consultants are trained to give alot of excuses.
If you say you have to wait very long for matches, they say it is because they are trying to find good matches for you.
After the 1st date, you have up to 7 days which you can terminate your membership and get a refund.
But it is definetly not a 100% refund!
There will be a deduction of $550 for admin fees. If you have gone for the image workshop and/or coaching workshop there will be further deduction.
I am not sure of the exact amount of deduction but it is pretty expensive.
eg. You paidd $2600 for 10 dates package. You decide to terminate after the 1st date.
You get refund of $2600 $550 admin fees - image workshop - coaching workshop, You get just around 1k plus in refunds.
You are basically paying $550 for a 1 date with Lunch Actually!
Now, a typical speedating event that comes with lunch or dinner cost around $50.
You are better off spending your $550 to attend 10 speedating events that comes with free lunch or dinner, than to spend it on a 1 date with Lunch Actually!

Fake site, fake positive reviews
Review about VeronikaLoveAll the positive reviews here are fake. Just look up me on the net, David Brunner, the Stupid American. I can provide you will all the fake pics, profiles, women who have boyfriends, who are married, etc. at this fake crap site.
They create fake reviews here because this site does not check identity. If you want to check yourself come to me, I will give you instructions on how to find out about the fake profiles at Veronikalove. ALL PAY BY LETTER SITES SCAM!!!!
Pros
none
Cons
There isn't a worse dating site on the net. It isn't even a dating site. It is a ripoff sex cam site.
Great service. Recommended.
Review about VeronikaLoveUsually I don't write positive reviews, but this time I decided to let you guys know this website is the best of what I've tried and there were plenty.
sign up is fast and easy, gives you an access to all pictures and information right away. I received few letters and even got a chance to reply without paying a penny! I am happy with veronikalove and sure to find here what I've been looking for.
Sucked in
Review about XPress.comThis site is full of bogus profiles. First of all it's not very mobile friendly. With constant popups trying to steal your money if you do not pay attention. Like others state you get cryptic one line replies that's designed to keep you hanging on. They even tried to rip me off by charging me got one of their fake sister sites, yet the kept telling me they had ve no record of the charges.So I had the charge reversed. I have never been in a worse dating site period. You have been warned, stay away.
Pros
Some nice pictures
Cons
Poor navigation, popups and general shitty design.
Not bad
Review about Lunch ActuallyNot bad. This is not a dating site but is a modern dating agency who meets up with all their clients and find matches manually. Had a good time with this service and met many new friends via the service though no romantic sparks have flown yet. The best is to approach it with the right mindset, be open with your matches and let nature take its course.
Pros
- Personalised Consultation and friendly service
- Someone doing the work and booking for you
- Decent "dates" with new and interesting people you otherwise may not have met. Its important to keep an open mind when you do such things.
Cons
- On the pricey side. Not an easy investment to make initially and I hesitated after they showed me the price the first time.
Not for everyone but certainly a fun experience so far (:
Poor Customer Service, Expensive and potential fake profiles
Review about Mr and Miss BlackI joined this website, was swamped with messages, flirts, gifts etc but was unable to respond until l signed up to a package. I chose the 3 day VIP package and found access very restricted. When l complained, I was offered a better deal but was unable to take it up as they said my card mysteriously wouldn't go through even though l checked online at time and there was more than sufficient funds to cover the charge. They cancelled my account and told me call a number or visit chat to take up the offer at a later date. When l tried to take up the better offer l was told I'd have to take put another trial package to qualify.
Rip off city! I have now left the site with over 20 unanswered emails, countless unanswered flirts and unopened gifts. Don't waste your time or your money, no real dating site would've allowed me to leave if l was really that popular.
Cons
Expensive, poor customer service. Fake profiles.
Scam app
Review about Mixxxer.comScam app. Profiles are not real. Yet to receive any messages or teases from anyone. Claims to show profiles in your zipcode but shows random profiles from apparently anywhere else. No response from their tech support.
I was definately the "Poor decision making Rob Lowe" on this one.
Save your money.
Pros
None
Cons
Scam
The best site ever
Review about VeronikaLoveIt was my first time i tried such a service and i think it was not mistake. Those people who think that everything is not real come to Ukraine or Russia and you will see their ladies are really as beautiful as they are posted on this site. I have found my funny and kind sweetheart bunny. I love her so so so so much. Thank you Veronika for everything you did for me.
sucks
Review about Biker LoungeFake profiles , great for pinpals but meeting up is not likely ... Most likely that cute pic she has posted is not her , fat hogs eating cake and playing internet games ...
A balanced view on it
Review about AfroRomanceAlthough I can empathise with some of the woes some people might have had I only remember a positive experience. Only one out of about 20 women I had email exchanges with turned out to be a scammer - the bad old Nigerian style inheritance scam. Most women were pleasant, intelligent and sincere (as much as detectable online).
Anyway I eventually found my dream lady offline but I must say in all fairness that this site is worth a chance if you stay level-headed and street/net smart all the time.
If I look for a grain of salt it would be that some of the (apparently immature) female members send SMS style emails, containing 4-5 encrypted words. A major turnoff ladies! I also found it strange that quite a few girls in their twenties contacted me although I requested 40 in my profile.
In essence though it's not a bad site. Also the chat rooms are friendly even though populated mostly by the same crowd.
Side note, a friend of mine found her husband on there and they are still going strong.
Good luck.
Pros
Very international
Cons
Can be a bit immature
