This site does not deserve any stars as it is totally fraudulent relying on fake profiles to draw you in and subscribe.

How do i know this?

I uploaded a profile and immediately i got messages from some rather good looking people but i could not read my messages until i subscribed. So i did, all 3 messages from the good looking profiles asked where my profile picture was. I was still setting up profile and loaded it.
Now the good looking profiles (bear in mind i am a 41yr old female who has been on dating sites previously) never once entered my profile again as Zoosk records this. Okay so i may not be their standard but why would good looking profiles start emailing all new joiners asking for their profile pictures, they do not need too.

I studied these profiles, there were 3 in total and they were very similar as all the men has their photos verified, had received stacks of gifts (promoting new users to buy gifts) whereas when you compare to the average normal user, no one in their 40's has been sent gifts as it is childish and they are online for almost for 24 hours a day.

I do not doubt there are regular users as the numbers are huge on this site, i just want to warn others that you could be drawn into subscribing under false pretenses. I am not bitter that i have not met someone as there are plenty of sites to join i just wanted to give my honest opinion on this site. I feel pretty strongly about this that i will email Trading Standards to ask for an investigation on their practice.

I also object to the fact that i cannot remove my profile from the site until my subscription month ends. I should be allowed to take down my profile at any stage in my subscription. Instead i have removed everything from my profile until i can take down.

I also want to add i have had approx 20 messages from regular users all saying a version of 'make my day, make my year by just emailing to say hi'. I assume the site suggests this sentence as i have had so many similar ones now.

This site is not like any others i have joined, where people do write proper emails, with questions and comments about your profile so you at least can communicate.

This maybe right for some people but i just wanted people to be aware before they join, what they are actually receiving for their money.
