The cost for these messages for an ordinary person is way to much. But then most of the people on the dating site are professional people. I am retired.
Es buena la app, pero no hay otra opción de compra y no especifican el costo qué es en dólares, y es por esa razón, qué se me hace caro y son pocos créditos y hay ocasiones que no aplica el cobro o se complica.
Hi there,
Thanks for bringing this matter to our attention. In some cases, banks may block online transactions or require additional verification. We recommend contacting your bank for more information, as they can clarify the reason and assist with authorizing the transaction. If you don’t see the option on the payment page, it may be temporarily disabled due to ongoing maintenance. We also support several alternative payment methods where available. For more information, please contact our support team at support@bestdates.com.

Gracias por su apoyo, pero me a costado mucho trabajo, no sé por qué no puedo pagar seguido, saludos
This is a great website but sadly I don't have any money for it. Is it possible to find another way to pay for the credits?
Hi there,
We appreciate you taking the time to share your thoughts. Our platform uses credits for certain features, and you only spend them when you decide to, which helps you stay in control of your budget. To get started, every new member receives a 20-credit welcome package, plus an exclusive chance to purchase an additional package at a lower rate. This gives you the freedom to explore at your own pace and later switch to bigger packages if you wish. If you’d like any tips on managing your balance, our support team at support@bestdates.com will be happy to assist you.

Just once I'd like to find a dating website that lets me chat as much as I want without giving notifications that I have to pay. It wouldn't be so bad if I didn't have to pay online.
Hi Jason,
Thank you for your feedback. On our platform, credits are required to access certain services, but you only pay for what you choose to use, giving you full control over your spending. To help you explore our features, we provide a 20-credit welcome package, along with an exclusive offer to purchase an additional package at a reduced price. This way, you can experience the platform at your own pace and later upgrade to larger packages once you see the value.
Best wishes,

Really liking the pace and the kind of people I've talked to. It feels like a respectful space, which is rare. I did have one issue with delayed notifications once, but other than that, it's been a good experience so far
Hi Freddie,
It’s great to know you’re enjoying the conversations and the respectful atmosphere, that truly makes a difference. Thanks for pointing out the notification delay as well, your feedback is very helpful.

Honestly just didn't work for me. Messaging was slow and I ran into some bugs while editing my profile. Maybe others are having better luck, but I didn't see the point in staying

This one feels different (in a good way). I'm not usually into dating apps but this one feels super low-pressure. Everyone's chill, convos are actually fun, and it's not full of weird spammy stuff. Feels like a fresh start fr. 👌
Hi Paul,

Very expensive no one is in Perth Australia and the photos look like there mostly of male models. Just taken out of a magazine sorry buy a waste of time and money.seems concocted to me as a Monet maker for u and bad customer experience. Sorry if im harsh but i speak the truth.adam perth.
Hi Adam,
You need credits to access certain services on our platform, but you only pay for the services you actually use. You can choose the services that interest you the most and control your spending.
Best regards,
Blair from BestDates
The platform is far too expensive for my salary, making it impossible for it to be affordable. It SEEMS there are multiple "chatbots" used by users.
Hi kJaxson,
While the platform is credit-based, we recommend choosing larger credit packages, which offer better value for extended conversations.
If you need help navigating your options, we’re just an email away.

I thought there would be filters in order that only the age group specified would be able to read my profile, but I was slammed with children!
Hi Delta,
Thanks for sharing your experience! We’re glad to hear you’re having interesting conversations and hope you continue to enjoy your time on our platform.
Kindly,
Blair from BestDates
Hi Choi,

It cost too much to enjoy conversations and most of the women don't read your profile or they ignore it.
Hi John,
We're sorry to hear about the issues with costs and credits. That shouldn’t be the case, and we’d like to look into this for you. Please contact us at support@bestdates.com so we can resolve it as quickly as possible.

Every event in our life has a purpose, nothing is accidental. Every person who appears on our path is either a gift or a lesson and even if I lost, I won. I arrived on this site from an inexplicable impulse, without any expectations, and yet what seemed like a simple curiosity turned into a beautiful love story. An unexpected love, which entered my life like lightning and which changed everything. I don't know if this dream will become a reality forever, but I know that every moment lived, every emotion given and received, was fully deserved. A special thought of gratitude goes to the Premium Manager Roxy, who was there for me with warm words, support and encouragement when I needed it. Her support meant a lot to me and made the experience on this site truly valuable. Thank you for the opportunity to meet not only someone special, but also myself in a new light. Sometimes, exactly when you're not looking, you find what you need.
Hi Simona,
Thank you so much for your heartfelt review. It’s truly inspiring to read how something that began with curiosity turned into a meaningful and unexpected love story. Your reflections on life, connection, and growth are incredibly touching, and we’re honored that BestDates played a part in your journey.
We’re also very grateful for your kind words about our Premium Manager, Roxy. It’s wonderful to know her support brought warmth and encouragement when you needed it most. We'll be sure to share your message with her.
Wishing you all the best as your story continues—whatever the future holds, we’re glad you found something special here.
Warm regards,
Blair from BestDates
Site is very expensive for seemingly endless messaging. When a couple gets serious, site blocks every attempt couple makes to share private contact information to plan consensual meetings in real world. It also adds on double charges for "letters", charging patrons to open letters, then charging again to open content inside the letters! I would not recommend this site unless you have a lot of money to burn with very little chance of actually meeting someone for real. A lot of the women seem to be teasers - they go so far, then drop way back. I have one serious friend, but the site continually blocks us from sharing private contact info. Very maddening.
Hi Ron,
Thank you for your thoughtful review. While the platform has guidelines to ensure safety, we’re always working to improve the user experience. Please reach out if you'd like to discuss options.

Pretty satisfied only could do with more discounts off the credits as it's quite expensive on this site really!
