Zoosk

I've been on this site off and on for several months, have not joined. I agree with previous post, it's more like an arcade game than a dating site. You have to earn "coins" by looking at pictures on the carousel... and you must click YES or MAYBE to earn each one, a NO will not get you a coin. I'm not hung up on looks, but I would say only ONE out of 100 even appeal to me... the rest look like serial killers, and many of my "matches" live clear across the country. So glad I read all the reviews, I was about to sign up for one month... I will save my money and find something better. Thanks everyone, and best wishes to all!

Beware of this scam. First of all, a one month membership of less than $30.00 is accompanied by an additional "activation" charge of over $25.00. You can get messages, but you have to buy "coins" to actually learn about any of the creeps who would contact you. Then there's the "saved searches" that don't save anything. If I could give less than a star I would. You might meet someone here if you're lucky, but your time is better spent out and about living life in the three dimensional world at best and on another site at worst.

There are a decent pool of people on here but I really didn't care for having to spend so much time on the carousel to avoid spending more money. You don't know until after you sign up that "30 coins" are required to connect with a person that has expressed interest in you. You can earn a max of 40 coins a day by saying yes/maybe to connecting with a person based on their picture and city only. On average I might spend 20-30 minutes clicking through pictures before I'd find 40 ppl that I liked --not the time investment I had originally planned on. But, I refused to spend more money after already paying for 6 months in advance.

Anyway, in spite of all that... I met someone that I really like and it looks like we may be able to make this thing work.

I wish I could give less than 1 star- it's misleading, no filtering whatsoever. I have non-qualifiers signing up just to talk to me. This has been a tremendous waste of energy, as every time I take a look, there is a non- qualifier who has written a few times and then erupted into a rant about nonsense that they have arrived to. Also, random criticism from non- qualifying members for no reason at all.

Horrible, energy wasting experience. I hope not all sites are this bad.

This site is crazy expensive but does allow you to find singles in your area. I never paid for the full version but I was able to find someone in my town by using my real name as my username (not suggested), and so did the person I'm currently dating. We were able to meet after he found me on Facebook (you can't contact singles unless you pay so this worked out well). I'd suggest others to try this method if you don't want to pay and you feel safe using your real name; be sure to confirm through chatting on another social media site that anyone you're pursuing is a good person and not a serial killer as we're all afraid of on online dating!

This is a money gouging fraud. It says it's a free dating app. But once you download it they want a 75 dollar subscription fee then another 99 dollars in order to purchase coins to use on the sight for things like messaging or what they called super searching which only ever brought up matches that were clearly bots then when I finally caught on and wanted to cancel my service they wanted to charge me another 25 dollars as a cancellation fee. Do yourself a favor and just take 200 dollars to a bar and light it on fire that will get you much closer to meeting someone than this sight ever will.

It was great meeting the love of my life. But there are some pretty creepy people out there. Just be sure the person you talk to is legit! Video chat and talk about each others interests so you can see if there's a connection between you two.

Zoosk checks your personal information against social media, your phone number. Additionally there is an application called Tin Eye. You can use it to check photographs to see if they have been used in known cons and fraud. I never had a problem with Zoosk. However, on another website every other contact I heard from was a con. As long as you are careful, don't give out phone numbers and other personal information too soon, don't meet at night or take someone with you, and use common sense, it is good.

After paying for a 3 month subscription, I was not given the "Free Perks" as advertised. I had about 21 days of "Instant Crush" and the option of going back to look at a profile. Many of the profiles had no picture or story, making it impossible to make a selection. Their matches and smart picks resulted in people far exceeding the 100 mile preference, 95% of the time. You CANNOT edit your default search parameters and if you critize them, your story gets "edited". Definitely not renewing my subscription!

I believe I was fooled in to joining a hook up site. Most profiles are only pictures, no one actually writes about themselves or what they're looking for AND I keep getting messages from out of state people. I'm left wondering if this is the new way to pick up lot lizards? Additionally, it is NOT free. It is advertised as free however if you wish to send messages to anyone you have to subscribe $30+ a month... False advertising!

Guys! It's really a fake website, created for the purpose of debit money from you bank account automatic renew. I have cancelled my subscription but monthly subscription amount is being debited from my account. I hate this, even though there is no service/response or no contact number I'm fed up with writing mail to them no one ever responded till now.
Please don't go for it, I'm already cheated I wish I can stop a few, if once you have given your bank account details you are done.
