Count me in the group who wants to give this site ZERO stars! This site is poorly setup and run. Features are inefficient and largely fake. Even if you make some search criteria choices, the system ignores them. Searching profiles it quickly becomes obvious that there are many duplicates... beyond those people who post their own duplicates with only slightly different titles, etc.
Their system regularly sent me notices that I have new message, but when I checked it was not so. They also have a weird way of identifying communications as flirts or emails or photo-likes, but when you check its jumbled. Often in making a selection to read whatever kind of message it says you have, nothing happens. Often in checking a new message you find the person who sent it no longer exists -- this happens way too often to be a simple matter of someone leaving the site!
If you want help, GOOD LUCK, it's not there, but you can snail mail them...!?!
This is just a poor site with poor business practices -- I would not recommend it to anyone who has a brain and is truly looking for appropriate companionship!
No reply from the likes, does not match you up in any way shape or form, wanted to upgrade for everything, most of the women on here are snobs, looking for someone to fund their retirement
Being a member for 6 months I'll be glad when my subscription expires.
At first everyone is new. In a few months if your preferences are narrow you will find the same people being "matches" over and over.
One thinks with age comes maturity. These mature matches are mostly hookups with a majority looking to expand their private escapades if you catch my drift.
50% or more don't have pictures with their profiles as the months progress. 50% of the profiles have no substance. Scammers are present too.
Mature people are motivated by outright sexual statements or overtones.
Ancient profiles are still sent as matches.
They send bogus like notification to make you think you're still in the game. You never know when you report or block someone it's thinning the culprits.
As with all dating sites you have to protect yourself. It's no difference than Plenty of Fish or Facebook matching and costs more.
Buyer beware. There are just as many wolves at old age as at young age. Maturity does not mean anything when it comes to a selling point. Sometimes people are just old fools!
I decided to give them another try after a couple of years. Still the same the matches they send daily are not what I put as my search. I have emailed numerous times NO RESPONSE. Yet they keep sending me emails to sign up again. Last time I saw a guy and liked his profile but when I clicked on it another creepy guy showed up with same name.
Also, I sign out when I went to sign back in I was signed onto some guy account. This is horrible site. After this I will not spend any more of my hard earned money on any of these sites.
AS ALWAYS DISAPPOINTED IN OUR TIME
Bunch of retired divorced women looking to go on exotic vacations to exotic locations. I wonder who is going to take care of the horse and Alpaca ranch while they are gone? Maybe the poor guy they divorced. The ones who do not list their DREAM VACATION ideals, every profile question is answered: ASK ME LATER. Ok, so if you send them a like, they need to reply so you can ASK THEM LATER. Customer service? Was a member for 11 business days, placed a request on their help gizmo the 2nd day no answer.
UPDATE
I disputed OurTimes charges on my credit card. My credit card researched and contacted OurTimes. My credit card accepted my disputes and refunded all of my money. I'm so happy I have a great credit card!
I paid the money for a 6-month subscription.
I discovered that when I send an email I get the notice, "Let Her Reply For Free." This cost $8.99 per person. So if you send 10 emails it will cost you $89.99 for her to write back to you.
The other horrible thing is that if you click the "Let Her Reply For Free", to see what it says, it automatically charges your credit card. So now I have all these extra charges on my credit card.
I did file a complaint and OurTime responded with a generic response that didn't address my issue.
After getting likes they are scrubbed from system, most likes come from states you will never go to. Ater finally texting with a person for about a week both the person and all records of the text are gone. So i canceled my membership. Now i getting more likes, no answered to them. Ans after a week they are also gone with no records, seems like after i closed my account, my likes and views have skyrocketed
This site leaked my personal informational i was contacted by one of their members which was likely a fake profile user, which they have many of. At least 20% of the people who contacted me started with the usual "you are gorgeous" Line and in the next sentence, send me your email, because I can't be on this platform. Having the experience that I do detecting fake profiles, I never gave anyone my info but ourtime did! I asked for my money back and they declined. In addition, most men are 5.7, white conservative Christians, so although, I made a huge effort to connect, I was met with insults because I am metaphysical and not good enough since I am not Christian or white. Several responses I got were thanks but no thanks, I am a big supporter of Donald Trump, because I noted I am a liberal, this site proved to be to exclusive to SOME people. Sadly, I did pay for 6 months. They get no stars from me, but this site did not allow me not to give them at least one. Now I know why they only have 1.5 star review.
Although ive not met anyone yet that I would have a romantic relationship with, im glad I gave online dating a go. I started on OurTime and have been using that for two months now, after realising that it was time to get back on the horse following a somewhat nasty divorce process. I thought I would leave a review on it here as Ive liked using the site and as a beginner it really was ideal for breaking me into the online dating scene. Im now using a site called PrimeTimeLove.com which id seen some great reviews on and is a very similar idea but in my area (Milton Keynes) Im finding that there are a higher number of ladies showing up in my searches. This has in turn translated into more actual dates, which were few and far between on the first site (although as I say, it really was ideal for getting me used to the way it all works). Overall, I would recommend the site if you are a beginner and looking to start slow but then suggest trying other senior (not my favourite phrase) dating sites in order to find one that fits you and your local area better. Good luck!
STAY AWAY- Our Time is actually a "Waste of Time". They ask for criteria, you populate what you are seeking, yet they don't deliver and just throw "candidates" at you and hope that some will "stick to the wall". I am routinely seeing ages well over the age limit I mentioned, routinely see those who are outside of racial/ethnic preference, and many who are just too far away. I called and explained the problems and get excuses. DO NOT SIGN UP FOR THIS SITE. I am now in process of getting a refund.
Not only are you charged £40 for a month, you have to pay many other charges for full access & message. Okay if the service is worth it & can be safe! I wasted almost my entire month, talking to a very professional SCAMMER - with UK phone number, a completely professionally made up Webpage of his " business " including photos, certificates & trust pilot rating. This was a very clever & elaborate scam! Using photos of an Italian man,name of a Canadian person & history of Turkish family & using their corporate business name.
Thankfully I have a suspicious mind - & something alerted my senses that this could be too good to be true. So although Reverse Image search didn't show any anomalies- I searched further afield, magnified a notice in the background of a photo & realised the language was Italian. I was able then to get Face ID & see the true identity of the photos. I then searched extensively online - re the name & company names - he'd given. I found an email written to Turkish airlines- from a Canadian with part of the name he was using.
This was a very clever & extensive scam - which most people would believe. I have reported the profile to Ourtime & the phone to the company he was using.
However paying highly for a single month's subscription to Ourtime - I would expect not to have to worry about scammers like this! Nor waste my time & money for this level of deception. Hard to trust or believe anyone!
Do not show anyone near, within 70 miles, of where you live or are located. Waste of time and money, and not even close to matching your request. Total rip off.
I love this site! I have been on many sites and have met a few good guys but none wanting a real relationship I'm 42 and wanted something real. I moved to fl last yr decided to give this site a chance best decision ever! After only a one day on there I started talking a guy who was older so I gave I a chance went out an we have been together ever so nice our first date! He is an amazing man and I recommend anyone who wants a real lasting relationship go on this siteTHANK YOU OURTIME!
Our Time removed my information and replaced it with someone else's profile pictures.
The "Hack" was an internal issue and they refuse to take ANY responsibility for their careless and reckless technology or error. YOUR information is NOT SAFE with Our Time, or whoever they call their overseas business name. I have cancelled my account and suggest ANYONE else registered with OT does the same!
This site has no positives, it is full of Scammers who have had their photo's scanned and posted and it is not them. Unfortunately it would seem that a photograph is taken and Our time personal then write the review and messages, do not be fooled STAY WELL AWAY, or you will be disappointed and let down!
I have been at this site on and off for over a year. When my subscription expires this time I will not be back. I am a 76 year old male and finding a female in my age demographic is like winning a powerball lottery. Odds are about 1 in 2oo million against.
I have viewed thousands of women. Seldom do I see a woman in my age demographic, and when I do odds are she will be miles and miles away from my home. Usually on the order of 50-100, but oftan hundreds of miles away. Serously, who is lookinjg to date someone hundreds of miles away?
Our Time does not attempt to pair up members based on proximity. Rather Our Time just shows every woman on the site. All ages, all races, every state. It is no wonder their ranking among dating sites is so low. Unless one lives in a major city where there are apy to be many members one isn't likely to meet a dating prospect within reasonable driving distance, unless you consider 50-100 miles reasonable.
I don't know if women experience the same situation as males, but I expect they do.
I agree with Jon C completely. And if you go to other review sites that have a lot of comments on them about Our Time (like Disqus) there are LOTS OF COMPLAINTS about how the site will overcharge your card etc... I recommend staying away from them. I recommend that you read the reviews of the site in more depth before giving OT your credit card information.
Chat is terrible, the people are from across the country, no one ever chats back because it's too hard. I wish I could get my money back. Lots of e mails telling me I gotta a message when I don't!
So many people liking you, matching yet no messages whatsoever.
I think most of the time there site is weak
Trying to match locally is no good, waste of money
To get you to subscribe they send you fake likes to get your credit card details.but it Leads nowhere
Answer: Not sure what you mean by the shaded areas. But never mind, I agree with Alex H, don't get involved with them, they are just after your money. The reply rate is extremely low and the site is full of fake profiles. You will just lose your time with it ( like I did and I regret it). It's important to find a legit site, the site that should suit you best and I found mine: https://j4l.com/402007 It's 100% legit and valid and they don't resort to bots and fakes. I met my girlfriend through them so I know it's a working site!
Answer: They are charging me and I cannot get on this site, I want a refund as I have not been able to use this site,
