You have to be aware not everyone is on the site who is totally genuine. I chose my own criteria ie only people who were actually single, separated to me is not the case. Read the profiles, if there isn't a reasonable effort there, I tended to disregard... good luck, worth a short term sub to see where it goes for you...
Joined and immediately was inundated with messages from 21 year old CEO supermodels asking me if I enjoyed long walks by the beach and gazing into the night sky. Strange, as messages on other sites have always been of the "want to see my c*ck*" variety!
The site blocks and censors messages between REAL users. I used a fake profile to prove this (thus both my profiles are "real" users)
1. You need to play with your profile many times to get the profile to show, even if it is set as the thumbnail. You might think your profile photo is visible, but it's probably not.
2. Messages are censored or not sent between real profiles.
3. My (male) fake profile (no photo, no info at all) received around 100 messages from 18 year old supermodels with rich families looking to support 50+ year old men.
4. All the 5 star reviews here are fake.
5. Waiting for the "You misunderstood," "All of our members are real," "These aren't fake photos you can even video chat with them!" reply.;)
PS:
Great domain, shame its wasted on this sh*t. Looking forward to bidding on it when Google blacklists it for black hat marketing practices and it becomes useless to you guys
Beware of this site! They will continuously charge your credit card without you knowing. I was charged 2 times for 15.99 which I didnt approve of! I had to block my credit card! Facebook should remove their ads for this is a total motherf*ckin scam!
Hello Mee!
Sorry to hear about your payment issue. Please contact our support team at support@dating.com and our managers will review your profile and refund if the charge was erroneous.
I have tried other sites but Dating.com is by far the best and i have never been as happy since i met Wendy on this site.
I have met some very nice people through Dating.com. I have made some good friends and met a Fabulous Woman. Hope all goes well best of luck everyone.
I still can't believe my luck, the first person i contacted and we are in a loving relationship. How much was Dating.com or just blind luck i can't say but we wouldn't have met if we weren't both using the app.
I have enjoyed my time here in Dating.com, I have been on the site before and may well return in future.
It's a great site but too expensive to And there's a lot of nice women on there I found my only truly love that I will spend my life with and i thanks to Dating.com for For a lot of great experience on there
I love the app. I met the woman of my dreams. I hope to be married soon. The only wish I had was to be able to save certain women I liked under favorites and see the last time they viewed me a lot faster
I have been a member of Dating.com for almost one year. I haven't found any girl which had girlfriend material but I enjoyed plenty of good dates and met dozens of nice women. Conclusion: Absolutely good dating site and I think it may be the biggest I have found.
Made profile, no photo, no description, wanted to browse and get familiar with the site, but immediately started getting messages from men! Compared to other sites Ive been, pics from said men were rather well taken (good light, good visibility)
Text all extremely generic. Weird I thought, are they that hungry there?
But heres the catch, you can only read and send 1 message, for the rest you need to pay. Had the feeling they trying to stimulate me to pay with those potentially fake messages.
Anyway, decided to delete BUT you can only do that through tech support. Ok, fine wrote tech support, got reply fairly quickly are you sure you want to quite?, wrote back yes! And 12+ hours later Im still getting notifications of this generic messages from dudes
Hi DeDee!
Sorry to hear that you have doubts regarding our service. Our main aim is to provide our users with care and attention, thus we have services that allow everybody to engage in the conversation. It's called Let's Mingle. It's very simple to use - choose age, sex, and type the message and it will be sent to a bunch of members that match this criterion. Looks like you were getting a lot of Let's Mingle requests recently.
My last day on Dating.com a found the most beautiful Lady, she is my world, and soul mate I almost gave up. There is someone for everyone. She is out there I just waited for the best to get together. You will know when you meet her. We have a lot in common, we finish each others sentences. So They are out there. I have been looking for awhile. Thank you
Dating.com is one of best dating site I have visited. It has a great display of the members. I was impressed with the verifying the picture site of it as some people do not put their real pictures. I also like the fact of the phone verification and the Facebook verification. The spell check is very helpful. I was impressed with the messenger and it gives the opportunity to decide if you want to chat with a person or not.
I was nervous at first but once I learned to trust my instincts. I met lots of interesting women. One of them is my girlfriend we are together almost 3 months. She was the only woman I sent a wink to. I guess the dating experience really is a man's world. We couldn't be happier. Thank you Dating.com
No doubt about it. Dating.com is one of the best I have used! From my personal experiences I can tell that it is absolutely worth joining and in my opinion the best site I've used. Don't be fooled by the negative reviews. As usual: Guys with wrong expectations!
This site collects profiles of beautiful people from instagram, facebook and other sites, and then generates automated messages. It keeps spamming you with automated messages no matter what you do. You can get free 'private' pictures for only 10 profiles per e-mail address. All of these profiles are fake and none of them are interested in meeting you. But the pictures are nice.
Hello Louis! Thank you for the review! Collecting profiles of people from social media without them knowing is a theft and Dating.com being one of the major platforms out there is not interested in such things. All photos uploaded are checked by the team to make sure they are not taken from the web. You can always video chat with your special one to make sure she/he is real :)
I registered my account there and deleted after 1 hour, texted customers service after and got answer after few weeks I was ignored by email too.
After 3 months I was charged without my agreement, I was disappointed.
You are saying that site is not scam and no fake accounts there, really? Thats a bull$#*!. I have no name, no pics or anything, I deleted all information about me there and I still have notifications for my email that people still texting me? Wtf? And you saying its not scam?
Hi Al! Thank you for leaving a review. Let me address your concerns:
1. The charge issues - if you purchased membership subscription with us ($9.99/ month) you will be charged this amount every month until you cancel your subscription. Our support team will be glad to review the case for you.
2. getting messages even if you don't have any photos - I bet you still have your age and sex indicated, don't you? Then our users will still be able to sen you messages via our Let's Mingle service. This service lets you message several people at once indicating the preferences (it can be only sex and age, by the way).
Hope it helps :)
I like the site. I got many responses but sometimes it was overwhelming. Then I met people who continued to ignore me after writing to me. That was strange. I met a nice woman, we will see where it goes.
Really put yourself out there and don't forget to fill out the area of what you are looking for in a person. Everyone here is looking for someone special. You could be it. Be honest
Although you have to be careful with who you meet online, on my case I was very fortunate to have met someone a like me and we are 1 year in the making, all working fine!
Answer: TOTAL SCAM! I paid to test and see because my first impression was really bad, very fake profiles with basically the same texts. I also found it weird that as soon as I looked at a profile the person would shoot me a message... and this site doesn't show who's viewing your profile... another strange fact is that you don't have the option to delete your profile. I deleted everything, my pictures but could not exclude it. Anyway, don't waste your money, total scam. I also bought credits 1 day and had to cancell/block my credit card because the site charged me 5 times in a row on the same day, so they also work with extorsion...
Answer: Hi Curtis! Yes! Absolutly all our members are real! We have a special verification team to check all our members are real. We don't have any fake profiles on our platform. If you met any suspicious profile, please contact our CSD team. Best regards, Alex
Answer: Yes, I am a woman, I had been on the dating. Communities website for almost 3 months, I know very well as after they sent the email, I have to pay 10 credit to read each email. Even pictures, photo, video clip. If they are real why after chatting for months we already talking about marriage and still they refused (not one but 4 men from that website) to give real contact, email and wechat ID. In China wechat is very common even 80 years old have wechat. The men on thus site all claimed too old for wechat. That is really wired. Please be careful, those who said good review here, may be also their people. I am one of the victim who lose 5000 USD. I knew better.
Answer: Hi Robert! Absolutly not! All messages are created only by users. To make chat invite you can use Mingle service. Best regards, Alex
Answer: There are real people behind the photos. But they do not look for a real partner. You just pay and chat people under their profiles. Maybe just operators.
Answer: Yeah, I totally agree with you Regina. I tried asking them to keep in touch on Instagram or Facebook, and I did not receive any responses. Moreover, they kept sending me the same messages and emails. I've been wondering whether they are real or not.
Answer: No, you will not! If you use the tokens and do not realize that it's by the minute it goes fast... also, emailing costs more and they must get paid to chat with you! All the men are fake!
Answer: You can not exchange contact details in the dating.com because the person whom your chatting with is a staff of the site pretending to be the person in the picture.
Answer: Dating.com is a bad site at, they specialize in scamming people. They cover scammers. When I give all the evidence to prove Fake membership of the website, but they always give the reasons of being unintentional, irresponsible, wasting time, going around. I spent a lot of money for a member, but they returned me the wrong amount and even said it was their good deed. Here, I am the one who gives money, but I receive all Fake people, don't think you are charitable for others. There are many Fake members in Dating.com. I have proof, proving they're fake. I ask Dating.com to pay me back for the exact amount I spent.
