My friend told me about the site and I was scared. The site really makes it easy with the love call to get to know people. The feeling of talking to the people makes it more real to me and this site offers this. Taking on different relationships with woman allows me to sort of play the field and not have to commit to anything long term at the moment. Glad I joined the site!
I thought finding love online was too good to be true but I'm glad I gave it a chance! I'm a married man with two kids and that's all thanks to Charmingdate for linking me up with the woman of my dreams. Rochelle is absolutely beautiful… a friend of mine who was using the site on my behalf (yes, can you believe it) met her first actually. They started chatting and she got to know about me. With the way my mate was raving on about her, I decided to sign up and long story short, our love story began.
THIS SITE IS SUCKING MONEY OUT OF YOU LIKE NO OTHER SITE, AND TO PUT THE CHERRY ON THE CAKE YOU NEED TO BE A MEMBER FOR 90 DAYS BEFORE YOU MAY GET THE LADIES CONTACT DETAILS "IF SHE SO PLEASES"
I WANT TO USE SWEAR WORDS ABOUT THIS SITE, BUT THEY SHOULD BE CLOSED DOWN. THESE LADIES ARE MOSTLY PAID LADIES BY THE SITE AND THEY MAKE PROMISES THAT CANNOT BE KEPT
I came on this site looking for a bit of fun and company, I work a lot and don’t have time for a serious relationship. The women here are beautiful, so I like to chat to them. After a while I stumbled across the woman I am talking to now and it’s made me really think about what I want from life. I thought these dating sites were a bit of a fraud and never believed you could really meet someone through one, but now I’m thinking of meeting her face to face.
Some of the women in this website looked so hot, I had serious doubts that their photos were real. With the free trial, I was able to try the real time video chat and meet my current girlfriend Katerina in person…Still hot!
So far I like this website, I'm 35 with a good job but I travel a lot, I'm looking for a woman to come home to when I am back from work. I thought I would never find one, I talked to a few women and they are young and pretty, looking for a good life that I could give them. I haven't found a woman that I have chemistry with yet, but loads of nice ladies on here, so I keep my fingers crossed.
Listening to some of the guys whining about their experiences on Charmingdate.com makes me embarrassed. Yes, you are paying for the service, just like you would any other legitimate dating site. But you are connecting with real, honest to God, gorgeous women who are funny and smart and don’t play games. The website itself isn’t fancy, but is easy to use. I met a woman named Mila and hit it off instantly. I took it slow initially (I was afraid of being scammed) but last month, finally, I was able to fly over and meet her and it went perfectly.
A couple of my old college buddies have been bugging me to try the website for several months, but I was hesitant to try it. I have had negative experience with other international dating websites, but I reluctantly tried the site two months ago. Wow, I have never had so many choices of beautiful, fit women! First of all the photo quality is much higher, the website design is simple and user friendly, and their translation service helps eliminate the “Why would she say something like that?” type questions we have all had in the international dating world.
All the women on here are open to chat to anyone. I am more on the younger side and thought I would be rejected but these women seem to be interest in young guys. It is fun getting to talk to older women, so dont be afraid to chat with an older women, it can be very interesting. Trust me fellez. I do recommend playing the numbers game, the more yu message, the better your chances.
The first time I purchased the chatting service, I noticed that I was charged twice for the service. I was irate when I received the bill at the end of the month. I immediately called the service department and was pleasantly surprised that my wait time was under 2 minutes. When I explained the issue, I was immediately given an apology for the error and was issued a refund for the 2nd charge. Now, if charmingdate.com service department could just take over the DMV.
I was shocked that I had to pay to use certain features on this site. I have never been on a dating site where I was asked to pay a fee to chat with beautiful ladies man! That is outrageous! I guess with the amount of beautiful women on here I can pay a few dollars to get to know some of them. It better be worth my money if I am paying to find love.
I’ve been using dating sites for years, I’m in my forties now and I’ve never really settled down, but I feel like this site is the one for me. I’ve talked to a few of the woman on here already. There are lots of profiles to look through, and I’m surprised to see so many younger women on here who will talk to me. I liked this site because it offered the free trial, other sites I’ve used in the past do not offer this, so I really got a feel of the site before I chose to pay. I would suggest others to give it a try too.
I was thinking scam at first because I had to pay for some of the services, but after using it, I found it was useful and was not at all a scam. I know that you all may feel that the ladies are fake, but they are legit. They just all are sexy with high quality pictures. I mean the high quality pics are a good thing, that means you have a high quality woman.
At first I joined the website for the fun of it. But then I came across my now-wife Elsa. Everything happened so fast and I think a lot of it we owe to the site’s customer service people who enabled stress-free call sessions between me and my girl. Eventually we connected on more personal platforms and I decided to visit her in Italy. I felt exactly the same connection as I felt for her the first time we chatted on the site. If you’re like me and you’re just looking for fun, maybe a relationship is in store for you!
The girls on this site are drop-dead gorgeous and seriously, it’s so tempting to date a lot of them at once. So I filtered my searches to the exactly the kind of person I wanted and found my match who I’m now dating offline. She had so much detail on her profile- we shared similar interests like travel, the outdoors, sports and the likes. It was a bit scary and I got the jitters because it was like I knew her even before I met her. Anyway I worked up the courage to send her a message and seriously it was the best decision till date.
I thought the age difference would be an issue for the younger women I meet on the website, but it has not been an issue so far. A lot of the women even write that age doesn't matter in their profile.
The website could be improved a whole lot. I did not particularly enjoy paying for the service but it was worth it in the end. Every website will have its pros and cons and this one has pros
Due to the beautiful women on the site. Some cons are the website design and the search function. The search function could be a lot more detailed but overall you will get what yu pay
For.
I wasn’t really sure what to think when I first signed up, I read a few reviews that seemed a bit negative but I thought I would try it anyway. I signed up for the free trial, after all I wouldn’t be losing anything. I had a look around, loads of gorgeous women on the site, talked to one woman, Kayla, and we seemed to hit it off right away. She’s really pretty and funny, exactly the type of woman I like. The site gives you a free chat voucher which I already used. I’ve signed up for the service now, and so far it seems worth it.
I've been a member for four months now and I have to say, though it was hard navigating through the site at first, it got easier. There's a link for everything, you name it. Whenever I come across someone I want to chat with, there is a live chat button waiting for me on the page. Better yet, I almost don't always have to try and find someone to chat with, the ladies are so confident that they reach out to me first. If you're there to meet someone, that's exactly what you will get, trust me.
Did anyone notice how all of these women have model type pics. That is kind of weird. I mean I could not find one profile with a bad picture, not that I was looking for one, it was just something I noticed. I can say if the girl I choose takes all her pictures like this I am in for a treat. The women must be of high quality to take their time and upload all nice pics.
Answer: My verdict after a year of using Charmdate: it's total fraud! I had been in a close contact with many girls for a year until I finally left the site. Now I'm convinced that pretty much all of them were scammers. I had not met any of them! All of them suddenly came up with some kind of excuse in the last minute as to why they couldn't have a real meeting with me. Bullsh*t! It can't be a coincidence when I had 4 dates on http://j4Iove.com After using it for 3 months only. Can you explain the difference? There is just one realistic explanation: Charmdate women were fakes and scammers.
Answer: The question "Can I trust the site" is easy. The answer is no. The real question is "can I trust the girl" and that is harder to answer since there are some real women on the site. Here are some things to consider. Many men have signed up for tours or independent visits to meet a girl only to have the site call at the last moment and tell them they either have found someone else or decided they were not interested. By that time they already have their ticket and "tour" booked and paid for. We don't know if your girl is real or not and you might find yourself a "victim" of their fraud. Before you trust her, you need to be able to separate her from the site and confirm the relationship independent of the agency. There are ways of doing this. Ask her to send pictures that she has posted on her private web sites. Google them and make direct contact. I googled any picture of wome writing to me. Many were on VK.com, the equivalent of facebook. So I set up an account there and contacted the ladies. Most immediately blocked me. One who did not simply told me she would ONLY correspond with me on Charming date. You can also try to find a way to give her your phone number and ask her to call you collect. Most of the time your letters will be edited to prevent such information so you'd have to be creative. Tell her about a 2025 mile trip you took and fill out the rest of the telephone number with number of gas station stops meals eaten, people visited, etc etc. If you really want to you can call her, assuming you are actually talking to her and not a fake agent. Find out where she works. Call there and get her direct number. Try anything. But so long as you are only writing emails, you should assume little correspondence between the profile and the emails you are getting. Odds are if you are corresponding with a real woman, much of your correspondence has been "enhanced" or even written by the agency and you will have to start over getting to know her. Independent studies indicate that you have a higher chance of marrying a translator for the agency than you do of marrying the girl to whom you thought you were writing.
Answer: Do they get paid? Not in a conventional way set up in a western society. Charming Date, gets its women from "affiliates" in Ukraine. These "dating groups" go out and advertise for women, who are seeking western men. The site pays the "affiliates" money for each women's profile they get to use the site. I CANNOT definitely say that the affiliate groups are set up to pay the women. They feed them a lot of bullshit about how easy it is to marry a western man. In Ukraine, the average salary is about 200 bucks a month. A lot of these women love that country, but want a better life. The dating sites know this and use this as their leverage to get women to sign up. They really BELIEVE that someone is going to marry them. That is their dream and the dating sites tell them that the dream will never be realized if they are not exposed to a society (western) that can give them a better life. Not all of those women are scammer's. You have groups within the affiliated dating service group, that is filled with nothing but scammers. I am SURE that the leader of these groups ASK to be paid for each women they get to sign up.If they DO pay a woman, she is not getting hardly anything at all. A Ukrainian woman is not going to get rich advertising herself online at different dating sites. I would say she is lucky if she even gets 10% of a reply. And then that is eaten up by all the photo-shopping that is done to make them look more beautiful. She is stuck, she does not realize how hard it is to get her out of the Ukraine because the dating site will not ever tell her of the VISA restrictions that are attached to Ukrainian citizens when it comes to visiting the West. But the dating site is her only hope., so she stays with it not because of the little she may be getting, but because she believes that she will find a real husband from the west. To the dating sites, she is nothing but the product they advertise to make money off of, and some of the women have gotten hip to that. I have had a couple talk to me seriously about how they felt they were not being informed on how hard it is to marry a western man because of the restrictions on the average Ukrainian's VISA. The dating site WANTS you to fall in love with one, wants you to keep buying credits, spending money, and if you are communicating with a lady from one of the crooked affiliate sites, she will be encouraging you to keep writing, or will try to seduce you with words. A real lady does not do that, even in the sites. If you tell her the site is too high, she wants to know how much you pay. If you tell her you can only write her once a week, she will tell you that she will cherish each letter you send. If you are in a site that has video chat, you can SEE the very woman you are talking too, which Charming Date may have now. A true Ukrainian woman will introduce you to her family through the video chat, show you her brothers and sisters, because Ukrainians are all about family. They are proud of their families and want them to meet you. I have done this several times at another site and even send emails to them without the use of a site, but it costs them a lot of money to respond to you, to have what you send to them interpreted. CharmingDates plays this game two ways, they pimp the woman without her knowing how hard it will be to get this dream, and they scam you thinking you are just going to find a wife here just by a few chats or letters. You might, but you can bet you will be spending a lot of money to send and respond to letters. CharmingDate cheats on their chat feature by NOT giving you the full time you pay for, and they DO have women, who are members of the dating site, answering chat invitations. So, that should tell you something right there. Because there seem to be no restrictions or laws governing these crooked affiliate sites from Ukraine, this will not ever stop. But... there are a few sites out there that you can really meet some decent, nice, attractive and respectful women from Ukraine. After you have been around for awhile, you can smell a scam a mile away. A real Ukrainian woman will SURPRISE you with how friendly she is. She will SHOCK you with how humble she is. All she wants... is for you to be her friend and she HOPES, that it becomes more than that. There are many, many attractive women there. This I learned AFTER my first post here. But because there are so many, the men there take them for granted and will leave them in a minute. They are there, they are in Charming Date, but there is so many frauds and scammers there also, the dating site can easily get out of trouble by saying they have no policies at all governing the affiliates who sell them profiles of women they recruit. The site says "no scams", that is true for any society that has laws, but they do not get these women from a society based on that. So, it is easy for a woman and the company she works for, to scam the site, which I am sure... they know it. Good luck out there! Search the sites hard, there are some Ukrainian women that are really worth your time and attention. I am continuing to find out more and more about Ukraine. It is a very interesting place. It also seems that, the more you seem to want to know about their country, the more honest women are attracted to you. The more intelligent you act towards them, the more credible the women seem to get. It seems like a word goes around the country that says" this guy has a real interest in our country, he is worth being serious with" The truth be told, a lot of dudes, pay that little money to those women, and want nothing but virtual sex from them. That is how I believe the scammers got a foothold in the industry. The cry for immoral (smile). Everything you have read here is based on my personal opinion, on things I have learned while talking and dealing with women from Ukraine. When they were asking me about the unrest in America, about holidays, about how streets look like, you can assume... she is probably on the level. She will NOT EVER ask you for a DIME, nor will she send sob stories about someone in her family being sick. The true Ukrainian woman, for all her humbleness, is still a very PROUD woman. She may not have ANYTHING, but she will not ask anything from you! Personally... I think if you get a chance to get ahold of a true one? That Slavic woman is going to love you to death, no matter WHAT you look like... just have a decent heart and treat her correctly.
Answer: I flew to Kiev and found this site to be much of what others have said. The woman are paid. Local model agencies refer girls to this site to make extra money. One girl told me she made fifty per cent of what she brought in. When I surprised a couple of girls that I was in Kiev vacationing they were all of a sudden leaving Kiev on there own vacation. I found meeting girls in Kiev at bar/restaurant I was much better off. If you notice girls send you the same pictures just to build their tally and so on. If you stick to a letter a week and see where it goes from there it will keep your costs low if you want to keep investigating this site. But my recommendation is travel to Kiev during winter and Oddessa during summer and see what happens.
Answer: It's a fake and scam site.
Answer: Any positive feedback here about Charm Date is a complete lie. Don't believe anything.
Answer: They will not do this. I actually wrote them about a month, maybe two back about policies. This was one of them I wondered about and they said they do not provide that service anymore. They also do not support IMBRA.
Answer: You have to request them to do this. I would delete all your photos, and erase everything you can. Then make the request.
Answer: This site appears to be a complete rip off, far too expensive, gives nothing in return except endless chat.
