My, my, my
January 28, 2021

Step up from my last attempt at online dating. Clearly more direct and the men here are much more set on getting offline as soon as possible and meeting in person. It's a breath of fresh of air from the lookielou time wasters I had run into most my life.

Works for me!
November 15, 2018

I like the site. The first plus for me is it's free and easy to use. I also have enough men in my area to choose from for now (wouldn't mind more of course). I haven't really fallen into the "lifestyle" but getting spoiled on dates is pretty awesome. I prefer to casually see guys when I find the time, so being a hot date for a few good men suits me perfectly.

Great
May 10, 2019

I've tried this and SA and both are free for girls so nothing to lose. I think SA got too popular and I stopped using it because the guys got more and more vulgar. That might happen in time with SB but not yet. Worth signing up for girls

Doesn't work
October 3, 2019

Doesn't work. Same complaints as others. I respond to a message, don't get a response and the Er Er person doesn't even read my response. Spoke with customer service. They were very accommodating. Very quick response from them. I'm pleased.

Easy to meet guys.
September 2, 2020

I really like using this site. The guys are talkative and open. I get a lot of messages and most guys have been well behaved. Going out is complicated because of social distancing, masks, etc. Otherwise a great date site.

I've read some complaints about slow customer service but that hasn't been my experience at all. I have been a member for 3-months and have been impressed with the responsiveness of the staff. Thanks for providing us with this site!

It's a scam
June 14, 2019

First of all %80 of users on the site are men so think about that. Second it is one of the most expensive sites out there. You have to pay at a minimum $3.00 per person to message. Strangely enough tons of women message you but you can't read the messages or respond until you pay. After you pay and respond to the messages you never get a response back again. It's obviously a scam to get you to pay more money. For the price of 10 messages you can pay a flat monthly fee on another site which gives you unlimited messaging. Also the search and filter functions are better on other sites. Don't waste your money.

I’m very sorry to hear you haven’t enjoyed your experience on Secret Benefits.

I've asked Customer Service to get into contact with you to see if they can help.

As a new user to the site, please keep in mind that sometimes people can take a few days to reply to their messages, hopefully you’ll receive replies from more women in the coming days if you haven’t already. People do get busy with their lives off the site and don’t always check in every day, especially over the holidays which is when your review was submitted, so it’s worth giving it a chance.

Again, sorry to hear you didn’t enjoy your experience,.

My initial worry was it was going to be lame with an imbalance of women to men, but I have been actually having a great time meeting successful and mature men.
The site itself operates flawlessly and tons of profiles to flirt with. Many funny and clever responses and I've vetted several to meet for regular dates. Not a dull weekend, haha.

Around 2 weeks after joining the site, my membership was cancelled. Someone by the name of "Adrian" emailed me, saying that I violated their terms. 3 times, I asked which terms I had violated given that my profile did not break any of the rules that are provided on their site. They failed to tell me which rule/term I violated. I paid a lot of money only to have my membership terminated without cause.

No major complaints. Had some luck.
September 6, 2018

I've tried out SA and SugarDaddieMeet, and so far, I feel like SB is overall the best sugar daddy dating websites. My experience has been this site has less creepy guys that seem more genuine, from the ones I've met at least. I have a hunch that there are a good handful of married men on here, but they are on every site. I'm not stoked on the lack of wealth verification for the guys because it makes it really hard to tell if these guys are legit sugar daddies. I'm a single mom, yet I don't reveal that on my profile, so who I'm looking for is kind of specific. I've had several nice dates so far, and I think a couple of them are really good contenders. I recommend giving this site a try if you are considering it.

Thanks for reviewing and recommending Secret Benefits Emma. It seems the request for wealth verification is a common request and we'll look at that again and see if there's a way to do that which is actually useful. In the meantime, don't afraid to ask lots of questions and get to know each other a bit before you meet up as that's always the best way to weed out the pretenders.

Don't waste your money
December 10, 2023

You will receive short, ambiguous, bot generated messages from fake users. You must pay to open the messages.
When you pay and respond you don't get a reply.
Sucked into a waste of money...
Don't be fooled.

Giving it another try
August 12, 2018

So, first I would say that out of the sites I've tried to meet a TRUE gentleman that will treat me with respect and enjoys taking care of me, this site has delivered. There are guys to choose from, and SB seems to attract a slightly different crowd. In case you are new to sugar dating just keep in mind, I would say 99% of the sugar daddies on the site are not looking for a "forever ever after." I was regularly seeing a guy I met on SB for like almost 6 months, and just like that, he was gone. If you are used to bad breakups or sweet goodbyes you might be surprised. Most of these guys are too busy for the standard relationship. Anyways, I jumped back on the site last week, sent a few messages, and I'm right back in the game. I would recommend to those looking for a straight-up sugar daddy dating site where you might stand out in a smaller crowd compared to some of the older crowded sites.

You get what you put into it
November 11, 2018

Don't be mistaken, this is a totally legit dating website. The guy's are looking for a desirable lady and gals like me are looking for someone that enjoys making a woman smile. I made the decision to really spend some time on my profile and it's made all the difference with the quality of guys contacting me, so from my experience, Secret Benefits has provided the platform, but it's really been what I've made of it to work in my favor. It's really encouraging to me that I can be up front with what I desire and need from a relationship.

One of the best IMO
November 7, 2019

Tons of dating sites. Been on a few. Takes a lot of effort to find someone decent that I am really attracted to. Things really turned around for me once I verified my video with the secretbenefits support peeps. Getting more men chatting me than ever before. Really happy with this site!

Photo approval
June 26, 2019

I've had my account for a little while now with no issues and all of a sudden my pictures will not show on my profile. I contacted support about four times and no reply, this issues lowers my chance to actually meet someone. I tried to deactivate and reactivate my profile in hopes my pictures would show and nothing. I now have a disclaimer in my bio, how cute. There are too many people complaining about support not responding, someone needs to address this.

Classy dates. 2 thumbs up
December 10, 2019

I joined after my friend recommended. I was on Tinder and found it almost impossible to find a decent guy that would follow through with a real live date. Still encounter an occasional perv but the overall higher caliber of men on SB is night and day. Meeting real men that treat me nice is a nice change.

Scam
July 13, 2023

They charged me and then blocked my account saying it was disputed. I talked to my bank and their payment processor, segpay. Segpay said that neither they nor my bank disputed the charge and it was secret benefits that was causing the issue. Secret benefits has horrible customer service and will hard to talk to. They still have my money as I have not been refunded like they said.

Str8 up best site among a few of these sites I tried in the past 2 years. I can usually open a chat with a cute babe and get something out of it worth my time 6 out of 10. My trick is going for the 7's and 8's, much easier that way.
I also tried SD and SA with some luck as well. I prefer to avoid the monthly charges.

Cool dating site
October 11, 2018

I've been having a great time on secretbenefits.com. Currently seeing 2 guys and chatting 1 guy long distance. They all provide support in some way and have all been gentlemen. In all honesty, I like older guys. They know how to treat a lady and are not just trying to weasel their way into my pants. To each their own, but I'm loving this so far!

I had to go through a lot of chats and dates. Some became friends and others were duds.

It can at times be discouraging, but I the motivation to no be alone kept me going and after about 6 months of being on Secret Benefits as well as a couple of other dating apps, I met someone really special on this site and we have been going strong for 3 months now.

I would say to others about this site that it does work and there are plenty of options at least for me in a fairly populated area. I wouldn't lower my standards but I did have to learn to be flexible and more open minded with what people wanted. All in all a great site as long as you have patience and a good amount of social skills.
