I have my 4th date with Crystal today. She's absolutely stunning.
My cousin first told me about this site. Joined up at first wanting to find a nsa deal but after dating a couple of other girls, Crystal contacted me and she changed everything.
Cutting to the chase, I love that this site has helped me find such a beautiful girl. Really pleased with my entire experience here. Thank you for delivering a great service.
I went ahead and took my public profile down today because I met someone here that is a great match for me and I want him to know I am serious. Caleb is a warm, funny, and caring man and one of the best looking guys I have dated in a long time. Turns out older and more mature guys really do live up to my hopes and expectations for a legit boyfriend.
I thought it would be nice to give some props to Krystal for helping me out with my profile. I was particularly having issues with getting my video I uploaded to get verified so guys would take me more serious. After a bit of confusion and some patience with me on her part we got it all sorted out today. Give her a raise! Lol
I SIGNED UP FROM AN AD YESTERDAY. GLAD TO READ GOOD REVIEWS HERE. I FOUND THE SIGNUP REASONABLE AND FAST. LAUCHED INTO SEARCH AND SEE SEVERAL VERY ATTRACTIVE PROFILES. GOT MY FIRST REPLY AND CHAT STARTED. NOT MY FIRST CHOICE BUT SHE'S CUTE AND RESPONDING FAST.
The best factor about Secretbenefits.com is the active member base. These date sites are usually a waste of my time but at least this site has dudes that respond and most have been able to hold a convo and know what they are doing if they get lucky.
I am a 23 year old single mom, going to school, working full-time and I really needed a solid man in my life. Joined SB this past summer. Dated around for a few months until I met Andrew back in September. It has been going great with him. He takes very good care of me and has been great with my 5 year old son. Many thanks to Secret Benefits for helping me find a truly great man!
Wasted waaaayyyy too much time on dating websites.
The least I can say is Secret benefits is producing real men that show up and respect.
More dates that were mostly fruitful compared to other sites I've tried.
If anyone knows what I'm talking bout, sure u can identify.
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.
Yes Secrets Benefits did try to contact me but as I only check that email account occasionally I read and replied to about a month later which they did not respond. But really they would have to change their business plan to resolve my issues.
After an arrangement with a lady that I met on Seeking ended suddenly I decided to give Secret Benefits another go so I purchased 200 credits (if you read my previous article that's effectively 20 actions) for $US89. I intially contacted 2 ladies who didn't respond so a day later I purchased a months membership with Seeking $US89. I used the same photo's and profile on both sites. On SB I received just over 50 messages replying to 16 of them. Which means I have 40 credits left or 4 actions) as I have not opened any hidden photo's. Six ladies responded but I only got into one conversation. I actually don't know if the others even read my messages because SB now charge you 10 credits (1 action) to allow you to see if the person you have opened a conversation with has read you messages. Along with the fact that any messages that are older than 28 days old are removed for "security purposes" I now have to reduce SB to 2 star.
I realise that a reader may be thinking its my approach. But.
After 10 days of my $US89 on month renewed membership on Seeking. Exact same Profile, Exact same initial message and language. I initiated 60 conversations to ladies whose tags matched what I was looking for. I probably got into conversations with 20 of them. Some didn't read my message, which is ok (thats their choice) but at least I knew. And I received access to 20 hidden photo's at no extra cost.
Yes some promising discussions stalled and there were ladies wanting to rip me off but I have started an arrangement with a lady who is "way out of my league" and will be seeing seeing her for the third time in a few days. The real telling thing is that I have told since told 3 interested "way out of my league" ladies that I am taken. I am still receiving (another 3) very positive enquiries 8 days after I stopped initiating conversations.
Yes I can see the issues that others raise about being kicked off the site but for the life of me I can't understand why SB is rated in the mid 4's while Seeking is in the mid 2's.
I was an active member of Secret Benefits for 20 months. I am 61 and was pursuing mainly ladies under 30. My aim was to always seek a lady for an ongoing arrangement (both company and intimacy). Over the 20 month period I met 26 ladies an average of 2 and a half times (Estimate) - Mostly in the 18-27 age group but there were a couple in their 30's and one 43 year old. I'm told that the compensation I offer was probably the median maybe a touch lower.
So I was successful but its a lot of work.
Yes joining is free but you can't actually chat to anybody unless buy credits. I tended to buy 500 credits which cost $169 USD or about $250 Australian dollars. Everything you need to do (start a conversation or view somebodies secret photo's) cost 10 credits so every action cost $5.00. When you get down to 10 or 20 credits the site offers a bonus (twice as many) if you repurchase in 10min.
I have no doubt that the majority of Ladies were real and secret Benefits did their best to ensure this but whenever a lady viewed my profile they were encouraged to message me (and others) by a prompt. Its free for ladies to message which I totally understand but most of them had no idea that cost me money to initiate a conversation even if I was replying. So a significant number (probably about 80%) of my replies received a no reply. About 30% of them weren't even read.
It doesn't take long to churn through 500 credits - $250 for nothing. Checking through a profile can help but a lot of them are vague. Its a lot of work.
I tried also Ashley Madison - 0 out of 5.
A few ladies suggested I try Seeking.Com. This is not a review on Seeking so all I will say is that I had more conversations in 4 days than than 4 months on Secret Benefits.
A week ago I would have rated this a 4 out of 5 but after seeing the alternative its a 3.
I received 2 replies and met with one with whom I could not come to terms. She was extremely demanding
I met Suzy here 2 months ago. Been going really great. I think we are both very happy to have found each other here. Many thanks!
Wow, nice to meet guys for nsa hookup. All things are secret, that is crazy. Not like other dating apps, you need to avoid the offender or sexual assault.
Secret Benefits has been super addictive to me. I love chatting the guys. Most have been very interesting and I find myself smiling and laughing a lot at our discussions.
Several guys have gained my trust and I have gone out with a few for dinner, drinks, and it has even got a little steamy with a couple of guys.;)
Thank you for providing a fun website that helps turn boring days into something I look forward to.
Secret Benefits has been working out great for me. The women on here for the most part are very receptive and open. I also like the way this site is designed and the credits idea is so much better than charging me monthly fees.
This webwite does work if you are looking to hook up. I had absolutley no luck with Tinder and other sites like POF and encountered nothing but scammers there. I have met up with two hot young girls and it has been a regular thing with them now. I have one warning to the men who decide to join the site and purchase credits in order to use the site fully, there ARE fake profiles, and many of them in my opinion. And I am convinced the people who run the website reach out to you in the hopes you will respond and use your credits up fully well knowing its just a waste of time. So my advice is this, if on the girls profile it is extra-extra wordy, they say they want things other then an 'areangement", they say they are looking for conversation, they like texting etc... I would advise you never respond to them or contact them, block them all. Its just a pattern I beleive I have spotted, those interactions never go anywhere and waste your credits.
I also buy the most credits and once you get down to your final 10 credits a limited time offer becomes available in which they will double the credits but ONLY if you have 10 credits left and purchase in like 10 or 20 minutes. So wait until then to replace your credits. The third time i purchased i assumed i would get the doubling but i did not and they explained how to get the special offer to me.
Being nice to the girls is also key!
Good luck.
2nd week on Secretbenefits.com. Everything is going along well. Have a few nice chats going. Timing catching each other can be a crap shot.
Just got verified. The customer response was timely, professional, and kind.
Worth a go if you're looking for something a little more interesting outside the more mainstream dating sites.
Met Marc on SB last year. He's everything and more for me. He asked me to marry him this weekend, and I said YES! Head over heels happy! A miilion thank you's to SB for helping bring Marc and I together!
I would like to share that I did meet a wonderful man on Secret Benefits!
Started slow but was obvious we had something right away.
You should always use caution when meeting people online, so use your good common sense, but if you are wondering about this website, I give them an enthusiastic approval!
Best of luck to everyone else out there looking for someone special!
Like many other in this review forum my experience was: join, decide to pay some $$ for credits, received almost daily messages from women, then go to respond to the ones I actually find attractive and nothing but silence. I had an exchange with one 24yo beauty - who wrote me first - then after responding with "Hi, you are gorgeous! I'd love to be your sugar daddy - how can I spoil you? " etc. then after weeks of nothing, the girl not online for 3+ weeks, and similar experience with other top-tier attractive women, I had had it with SB. I decided that indeed something fishy is gong on on that site. I believe SB pays for model type 18-25yo women to create these fake profiles. I wrote to her asking to meet one more time just to prove that she's actually on the site looking for someone/sugar daddy as I had decided that the entire site was a scam. She THEN responds with "I'm real - see my verification video?" She did have a verification video - but what does that prove? The funny thing is the video didn't even really match the photos. Anyway - I've decided this:
Either the SB site pays some # of truly beautiful young women to join/create the videos but none of them are there to meet you - or - the site does carry out some of this pernicious behavior and I was just unlucky enough to not contact the beautiful "real" ones. Either way - at least for the model-type women the site is a scam. I finally told SB my opinion and that I wanted a refund for my remaining credits for me to leave, At first SB would not refund. Then I took a couple of photos from one of the model types and plugged them into images.google.com. And voila! I had evidence of a totally fake profile. Remember - images.google.com is your friend. I then wrote SB claiming the site is a scam - here's some proof! Within hours they are refunding my credits and I'm off the site.
Having a blast! Every night out with someone new. Real easy striking up a convo and having it lead to a date. If you're not having luck here, you're not doing something right!
