Top Positive Review

“It works, if you make the right connection.”

Bill S.
4/22/22

I can understand a lot of the frustration because it does seem like a lot of the "connections" do disappear into thin air after you've made contact; and there are a lot of customer service issues. But then again, I did actually meet someone in the U. K. after we first met on this site, and they were very real and very nice.So it can happen.

Top Critical Review

“I joined in 2016. They would override the stop payment in Paypal so I deleted by card each time.”

Edie R.
10/24/21

Every single man I spoke to would send me a short message, then not respond for weeks or months. I would let my subscription close, then I would get another short message from someone with no reply to my response. This happened with such frequency that I have decided they have fake profiles and use them to get people to subscribe in order to read those short, meaningless messages. It is either that or the men on the page were not really interested in finding a partner.

Hi Edie
Simply not true, there is no way we are able to over ride a stopped payment and you did in fact speak to quite a few members one in particular for many months. However I am sorry you are unhappy with us and would like to offer you some time on the site for free. Please email admin@iloveyoutaccent.com if you would like to take us up on that

I have been in this site for 5 months. Nobody responds more than once.
I need to cancel my membership so I don't get automatically charged every 3 months.
There is no place to cancel it in the website, I have emailed the admin email address with no response.
I need a solution as I am NOT interested in continuing with this service.
My bank advised to contact you guys one more time otherwise they are going to report the situation to a major bureaus as this is ilegal. People should be able to cancel.

Do not sign up!

They will attempt to rip you off in more ways than one. First, there is no way of cancelling the membership on the website nor is there a way of finding out the cancellation must be done on Paypal. They don't bother to mention it unless you ask an admin. Second, those profiles that you see who are subscribing members are people who work for the website. I know that people get free membership from the other websites themselves. I've seen it done on match plenty of times before. They probably get to keep their membership as long as they reply some cheap one sentence message which they have been doing to me for the last two months. Third, I wouldn't waste my time on this website. If you look at some of those profile pictures close enough, you'll see a date the picture was taken. The one picture they have as a profile picture is over ten years old. This is a dead website held up by bird dump. My advice is to actually go out to great Britain to find someone. I hear a lot of British folk live in Florida these days. I personally want to find a bureau to report this website for fraud. This is a bad impression they put on the British, and I think the website should be taken down permanently because it's just a bunch of money grubbing scrubs on there.

Tip for consumers:
Just travel there to see for yourself.

I've been a paid subscription member for several months now and am very discouraged at the negative reviews here but they have confirmed my suspicions that there are many fake profiles on the site. I have no issues getting flirts and first messages. I respond and the messages never get opened. Dozens upon dozens of unopened messages on my sent messages. How does one explain that?

It seems impossible to unsubscribe to the website. My emails are constantly ignored. I had 1 reply once and they said they cancelled my subscription; they did not.

I eventually just blocked their future attempts via PayPal AND my bank, and also am pursuing a legal case regarding refunds for the past year.

It's also worth noting that everyone I spoke to contacted me first, and really liked my profile then vanished. They were all unable to hold a conversation, missing most of my questions and forgetting what I had said previously (i. E. asking the same questions).

Their chat rooms are as empty as the wild west.

Terrible customer support (non existent) and bad website design.

Hi Damien
You did not cancel your account, PayPal informed us this morning that you asked them to cancel for you.
At no point did you make us aware of fake profiles

HORRIBLE WEBSITE! Didn't find anyone. But their website is horrible and unintuitive. There's no way to cancel. They kept charging me through Paypal even AFTER I took my bank account off Paypal! SHADY SNEAKY company. Now I have to go through my bank and Paypal to get my money back from this shady company. DO NOT USE THEM.

EDIT: When cancelling, make sure to call Paypal because they just keep charging you autodraft through Paypal guest checkout. They just tell you to delete your bank info, but that doesn't stop the charges. Paypal has to stop it, so call them.

Worst run website I've ever seen.

Such a shame you chose to make outrageous claims. You did not cancel and continued to use our service and was therefore charged accordingly. It is fraud when you use a service and then lie to get your money back. I have forwarded your recent usage so you can see just who is telling untruths here. As we never see any members financial info, how can we charge you if you cancel? We cannot, simple as that, your review is false? Could you show us or anyone where we told you to remove your bank account? It did not happen and this review is beyond false.

I am writing a honest review for both I love your accent and datebritishguys websites. Fake accounts on both websites. They send fake accounts to hotlist me on datebritishguys website and when I finally upgraded my membership so I can send and read messages to my matches. No one reply back to me. This is disgusting! Stay far away from datebritishguys and I love your accent websites because they operated in a same shady way. I am surprised there are no bad reviews on the internet about datebritishguys.com. I found an exact profile member on both iloveyouraccent and datebritishguys and this member happened to hotlist me on datebritishguy first. But also send messages to me first on iloveyouraccent, I was hesitant to upgrade my membership. But since I happen to like this member's profile good enough and he found me on both websites I decided to upgrade my membership. But after I upgraded my membership on iloveyouraccent and replied his messages there, he didn't reply or even open my message on iloveyouraccent at all! And of course to verify how awful is datebritishguys website also, I went ahead and upgraded my membership on datebritishguys website and sent a message to this exact member, twice in different days because he is on both websites. And of course no response or reply. I even sent messages to other members on datebritishguys who sent me messages and hotlist me before. NO reply at all! So I basically wasted $35 and $20 on both websites to prove that these two websites are there for lurking people's money. But I am glad I can test these two websites out and take my time to write my honest review so no other people can get scammed by these two awful greedy shameful websites. If my $55 dollars can help other people from troubles, I am more than happy to do that. Remember! Even the datebritishguys website has only a few bad reviews on the internet, and seems more organized and legitimate. It's an equally BAD website with fakes accounts to grab your money only! Don't let these websites fool you! I believed at one point these so called fake accounts might be real but they quickly deleted their accounts on both websites after they learned there are only a few real members on these websites but these dishonest websites keep their profile pictures and use different emails by their staffs to lurk people to pay membership to message these members or use these recreated fake accounts to send out messages to potential new users on both of these websites to scam people's money! Stay far far away and don't ever register on any of these two websites. Datebritishguy and iloveyouraccent are SHADY companies!

I notice most of the positive reviews are from women and this is not surprising given most dating sites favor women. I'll sum up my experience. The website itself is not set up well and I quickly discovered that many women hadn't been active on the site for 2 weeks to a month, which is not a good sign. My chief complaint is getting flirts from women who would then either not respond or only respond with a short sentence and not offer any relevant content or even mention their name. This seems very contradictory and aroused my suspicion that something was not right. After the fourth time, I chose not to respond and attempted to delete my profile, which I could not do. I get the impression that some of these women either work for ILYA or get some kind of kickback for sending out flirts in an effort to retain a level of engagement. It's very easy to get sucked in emotionally but I'm going with logic and reason to distance myself from both disingenuous people and questionable business practices by ILYA.

Update 10/15/18: I had no idea people actually use sitejabber, so for the benefit of anyone who finds value in reviews, I will comment on the response from Hannah at ILYA, in which she states, I failed to mention that I was removed from the site because I frightened someone. Maybe I failed to mention it because I had no idea I was removed from the site, meaning there was no communication from ILYA reprimanding me for bad behavior. I basically removed myself from the site. And as for "frightening" a member, I'll state exactly what I did that was so heinous. I posted a photo of a chameleon and added the definition of chameleon to my profile. The individual I frightened went by the name "Chameleon" and I was essentially calling her out on the ethics of her behavior. So, I hardly consider that to be worthy of that degree of fear. It's just further testimony that supports my original complaint. The defense rests.

I recently joined the site and became dubious straight away due to the poor quality pictures on some of the profiles and the speed of which people took a shine to me.

I proceeded to test things out by winking several users who were standard members. Amazingly, within minutes, these users turned premium and messaged me. The users are constantly online it seems which makes it even more unbelievable. They are clearly taking advantage of people looking for love. It is a disgrace and must be stopped.

Dear Gareth Clarke-Roberts. You joined the site months ago and used it for 2 months and then went to Paypal asking for your money back. You even emailed us asking why you were not allowed on the site and today you made a whole new profile. Only 1 member you messaged upgraded today so your review is completely false. You scammed us for 2 months of using the site if you remember clearly.

In response to Sara d, if that's even your name. I had several responses immediately after signing up and when I responded to them did not hear from any again, I have experience with dating sites and this just does not happen. I have also noticed how several positive reviews are always left on the same day - what are the chances of that? So OBVIOUSLY fake. You have responded to one gentleman and revealed personal information about his sexual preferences here! Unbelievable.

Tip for consumers:
Check out older positive reviews left here and see they are all left on the same date, bit of an extreme coincidence!

I think it's terrible, because one cannot even read a single message from any of the other hopefuls, without upgrading to a premium membership. How in the world are you supposed to determine whether or not you want to become a premium member, if you can't even initially connect with anybody? And how are we supposed to know that all those "messages from another member" we're getting in the iloveyouraccent inbox, are from actual people, or from employees of the site trying to make us buy a membership just to read what their messages have to say? It's not like I expect free service from everywhere/ everything, but, standards and rules should be reasonable. Iloveyouraccent is definitely not reasonable in it's expectations of people and in its willingness/unwillingness to bring singles together; it comes across as ONLY a business, with no heart in the business, whatsoever! Terrible. We can feel more heart in a bottle of Heinz Ketchup, than in this place! Avoid it, go somewhere else!

There should be a no star for this dating site. I cannot believe that this site has not been shut down already. Half the profiles there are fake and the every time the admin is on the same profiles pop up and will send you a one line email. Total waste of time and money. You cannot delete your profile from this site and it is a nightmare to get a cancellation done. Stay clear everyone! Good reviews are from the admin team. FAKE! FAKE! FAKE!

I signed up and after a month wanted to call it quits. I emailed the admin because I could find no way to cancel my subscription myself. I never received a response and was charged for another month. I then hid my profile, thinking this would stop the payments (don't know why I thought that). I was charged AGAIN. I sent another email and this time got a nasty reply "We told you before to stop the payments through paypal." Checked my email three times and no reply was ever received. I found out how to cancel future payments through paypal and then my account was immediately back in Standard status (no messaging, etc) but I had already been charged for the month. The rudest customer service I have ever dealt with as they insisted that they responded to me even though I sent them the email thread of no reply. Still waiting for a refund for this month since I have no access to Premium member features. BEWARE!

I was a paying member for quite a while & I just didn't find the quality guys on there -- AT ALL. I took a two-year break & forgot what crap it was & paid AGAIN. Within 24 hours, I asked if I could just get a refund & then I stopped getting communication from the admins. So disappointing because this COULD have been a great idea.

Similar experience to everyone else really... the company employees are rude and verbally abuse you when you report them to PayPal as being fraudulent. The messages you rarely do receive are dull one liners from I am guessing fake profiles, never any more than 160 people online whatever time of the day or night you log in. Total crap!

Very bad experience and scared by some of the other reviews. I get the distinct impression that many of the profiles are fake (and they all seem to be too good-looking). Nobody replies to you more than once or twice, if they send you an email address it doesn't work, the video uploader on the site does not work. I haven't been able to "chat" to anyone and now I have read on one of the reviews that they keep on billing you and you can't get out of it, which has scared me. I will warn the bank not to make any payments to them via PayPal or I will take my bank account off of PayPal, at least temporarily. The only contact address is an email address. I don't think I have any chance of meeting anyone genuine on this site because I'm not sure if there are any genuine people on it.

DO NOT sign up this website. The content is ok however as I have seen I am not the only person to be scammed by the automatic repayment. I sent an email to the site on the same day as my renewal to cancel it ( a legally binding email)) which was ignored and got very rude unprofessionsl one line answers as another reviewer has noted. I am taking this further as obviously it is not just myself who has encountered problems. Use the free site but DO NOT sign up! SCAM

UPDATED: This is the email string as of 10/19/2016..so far. I guess this review site doesn't post additional conversations except the initial review and initial response:

You canceled your payments as we asked, you have not been overcharged and you have only been a member for a few weeks. To make sweeping statements that we are awful and everyone is a fake is untrue and unfair. Chris S wrote: ------------------------- *, I am talking about the response after your initial reply regarding what I was told by PayPal. I still haven't received any response in help resolving the issue I had. I finally got it taken care of myself after research and calls back to PayPal. With regard to quite a few messages I have received. Correct, I have and I've responded and my opinion is of: It seems very suspect that a reply comes in a week after being sent on more than one occasion and by more than one person. I don't need you replying with 'everyone responds at different times, blah blah'. I understand that. I'm just stating my opinion on what I've experienced on your site. That's all. I have a right to state my opinion and you have a right to state yours. We can just agree to disagree.

I don't hide behind anything. My name is right there. Furthermore, I write positive reviews when I'm happy with a service. I most recently did this regarding a service I purchased a few months ago. I praised them not only a prominent review site but their Facebook page as well. I'm sorry that your customers don't do that for you. Like I said, I will be happy to change my review depending on the rest of my experience. *wrote: ------------------------- Chris, we want everyone to be happy but.......... we have no control over when/if a member responds. Unfortunately, unlike a restaurant review when someone has enjoyed a good meal and they jump on a review site to rave about how wonderful the food was... people tend to only review a dating site when things are not working for them. If you knew how many emails we receive about people getting together and thanking us, yet when asked to write a review for us they shy away or become very private and of course we must respect their privacy. Also, when someone feels the need to write a bad review they should state their name and stand by it, not hide behind a pseudonym as many do. I hope you find happiness and enjoy the rest of your time on the site. Chris S wrote: ------------------------- Also, if, in my remaining time with your site my experience changes, then I will be more than happy to update my review.

I joined the site even after reading the reviews. I signed up for 3 months. Paid via PayPal. After a while I realized this site is full of fake profiles so I emailed them about cancelling my account and got a response from Hannah saying I need to cancel it through PayPal. After speaking to paypal, the rep said they should be handling the cancellation of services. I emailed * back and to this day still haven't received a response. It took a bit of doing but I got paypal to cancel the renewing service. I'm still paid up for the 3 months. You know the profiles are fake when they only have one picture up and they don't respond to each of your replies for a week or longer. I'm playing around on there 'talking' to one or two who I HIGHLY suspect are just staff to see what happens when it gets closer to my renewal date. It's more of a game now at this point which is to bad because the idea is a good one but this site and the people who are running it in Florida are rubbish.

I paid for a subscription and inthe middle of contact withthree men I was suddenly disconnected. When I called up the website, before even logging in the server says403 Forbidden. After numerous requests to the Iloveyour accent admin, I was told that my account was still up and running from their side so I have to sort it out on my side. Then on fine day, after not being able to go on for almost a month. I tried yet again and it worked. I connected with one of the men and we are now chatting on skype. I want to dcancel this subscription, but it is sad because the other two men were nice. What gives with this website?

Hi, it's been 3 days since I emailed *******@iloveyouraccent.com regarding the website issue of my login not working and I still have not received a response. I even included a screenshot of the error message. I figure there is a problem with the website. Today I tried the button that sends you your username and password if you forget and it gave an error that my email address was not registered. My profile and photo is still up there if you search. I am assuming there is something wrong with the website code. Nobody has bothered to contact me back. Perhaps this is just a one man show and the owner is on vacation?

I agree with most of the reviews of this site - I can't prove it, but I believe there are a lot of fake profiles used to draw people in. I was even writing back and forth with a couple of men who said they were very interested and wanted my phone number, especially right before my subscription was to be renewed. Then the letters stopped and the ones I sent sat unopened. You also get "flirts" from people - so you write to them - and they don't write back. Probably staff. And yes, the positive reviews here are mostly sent all in the same day. It's too bad, it would be a good idea to have a site that caters to across the pond, but beware of this one. Some people have no conscience and think its fun to play on other's hopes.
