“Elite singles not scammers by experience”

Lucky Y.
4/9/21

Elite singles are not scammers that is why I am correcting my review here, yet they are not clear that they only serve US clients, it is not an international service, they do not have a mobile application. You meet non matching profiles. The finance are very reluctant to reply so for a quick response I finally reached this email *******@elitesingles.com My advise don't waste your money over paid dating sites, there are lots of free apps to check.

“Waste of money”

I paid almost $80 for one month subscription! I don't believe, it doesn't even match me with the correct people. Why it is advertised that it is one of the best apps for professional singles. It's so expensive even for $5!

It's a total scam. They have a ton of fake profiles. I think they pay people to message you. I have not connected with one real person. The guy in the photo below had an Indian (from India) accent. He couldn't tell me what color his hair was😂😳👎

Tip for consumers:
Just don’t use them!

Other sites are much better. I should have guessed how bad this site would be when filling out the Qs. I'm not certain any algorithm is actually used because profiles outside of my preferences were appearing as matches. Also you take the time to complete this profile and discover most of the people on their have skipped the majority of it so all you get is a location, job and non existent information. If I'm serious enough to be paying to use a dating site them the least Elite Singles could ensure if that a profile is completed. You can't get a refund even if you realise how rubbish it is within the first week.

I'm sick of it! I wanna go back to Seek4Match
And keep on using it and enjoy the dates. This site was very helpful to me in the past and it really worked, what a huge mistake I made when I decided to sign up for EliteSingles! Their cancellation policy is a money rip-off. It seems that there is no way to leave. Now I have to deal with these rogues, call them, message them, fax them, send mails to Luxembourg or Ethiopia or whatever else they will come up with? It's definitely one of the biggest fraud I have ever encountered.

The site it self is a bit of a scam because even if you are a paying member the other person can not see your message, picture, or respond to you or unless they are also a paying member. So you are getting cheated automatically by the site.

Second, almost every single person I did chat with, which was quite a few, ended up being a scammer. The conversations generally would last for hours, maybe not all at once, but they are trying to get you interested before they drop the scam pitch. For example, "let me help you invest in crypto binary option trading" or "poor me can you help" with money or gift card. You're more likely to win the lotto by spending this amount of money on the website, than you are likely to find love on this site.

I enrolled there becase Forbes.com enlisted it as top dating site. There're 4 women listed in this densely populated metropolitan, and they don't seem 'elite' at all. I would like to delete my profile LESS THAN 24 HOURS later, and they would not allow me to log in. Keeps rejecting the log in saying it's the wrong credentials, won't even let me reset new password. Data scammers for real.

Tip for consumers:
They did refund a full US $131 without being requested. But I would like to delete my data in there, they won't let me log in.

I am a paying customer to this so-called dating site. At first, I was presented with what appeared to be legitimate subscribers. Soon afterwards, the majority of matches (about 60%) either have no picture or just one picture. Moreover, their profile summaries, if any, suggest that they are made up. Occasionally, you are taunted with apparently interested matches. However, no matches ever respond. Sites that provide public services like this should be regulated externally and shut down if the proof do not back up their claims.

This site is dreadful. Firstly it completely ignores your preferences so rarely is a suggestion anything like what you're looking for. Secondly most suggestions are not professional or elite people. There are bus drivers, lorry drivers, construction workers etc. The 'best' profile photos of most of the men suggested are dreadful. I share about 10 pictures a day with my friends for a good laugh. Many of these men have fake profiles. Some must be doing this for a complete laugh judging by their photos. I mean who puts a photo of themselves with a huge bogey in their nose? And who
This site is expensive and fake.also I asked for Caucasian but get African and Asian suggestions all the time. Ladies. Don't bother looking for an elite man on here you won't find any!

The people I was interested in 100% of them turned out to he scammers here is how I find out:

All of them had lavish lifestyles, had a great job, great looking, talk about the things woman would love to hear, quickly wanted phone number, 90% of the day hours show active online profile, meaning they were chatting with others, don't they have jobs?

So I reported them and Elite singles reveal they are scammers. So be very aware of this site.

Elite singles didn't allow me to send them a message anymore because I offered to catch the scammers online for them since I'm getting very good at it. LOL...don't sign up for this site, it's horrible

Tip for consumers:
I hope there was some way to ban this site.

I signed up for this service months ago that keeps showing me the same inappropriate choices day after day. Same $#*!, different day, mostly not having anything to do with my preferences. Cancel my subscription! Ooops, no way to do so!

Tip for consumers:
The results on this dating site have been the same since day 1 which was several months ago. No emails, no notifications, nothing of interest, inappropriate results, still there day after day, and no way to delete! The delete option is not live!! Let me out!!!!!!

This was the worst online dating service ever. They are based in Germany. Within the first few days after joining, they were investigating two of the people who contacted me. None of the matches was that well educated and I didn't contact any of them. I also started receiving spam dating email from sites I never joined. I asked for my money back and they refused. Once I told them I filed a credit card dispute and opened a claim with the Better Business Bureau I got my money back. Avoid them.

Tip for consumers:
No refund after three days. I contacted them a week after. I did get my money back once I filed a credit card dispute and a claim with the Better Business Bureau.

Terrible site. Expensive and not for professional people. Worst of all, I corresponded with a scammer that goes by the name of Raymond Beasley. He asked for money in two weeks, reported to the FBI. Photos that scammer is using below

I haven't found anyone who I would remotely consider elite. I am not a perfectionist, but the site's name and prices presuppose a good choice, which they don't have. It's the matter of searching for your life partner in the right place. Elitesingles is definitely not the right place so I recommend to avoid this money drain.

This is the worst dating site ever. I was online for less than 21 days. The site notified me of 3 suspected scam profiles that had been in contact with me. There were an additional 2 profile contacts by con artists that they did not pick up on. Both eventually wanted money. Other than that they totally ignore the distance parameters you input. Most of my matches lived in the US or Quebec.

Tip for consumers:
A warning should be posted on this website. They are disgusting

The pool of people using this service is too small, and there is very little activity generally. More than half of the users don't have profiles or pictures posted. This becomes clear within 2 weeks, But at that point no refund is offered on the very expensive 6-month fee. This is a complete waste of money.

Tip for consumers:
There are not enough users but you can't tell right away. There is no way to search the users either, you can only review people you are matched with and that might be two or three per week. Definitely a waste of money.

Definitely don't waste your money. I've been on this site for just over a month and out of 6 people I've spoken to 5 of them were fake profiles. I got security alerts from the site, and I reported two of them. I haven't had a connection with a single match. I am getting matches from all over Canada and the US even though my parameters were within 100 KM. They are also outside of my age and race parameters so just a total mishmash. I have asked for a refund and they said I could transfer my subscription to another user! My worst enemy maybe...lol. What a complete ripoff and super high risk for scammers.

This website has fake profiles. Within 2 weeks of joining, I started getting messages that "xyz" user who you were in communication with is being investigated fraud... Most users are fake - you can easily make it out.

Elite Singles has had repeated ongoing glitches and technical problems with logging in. It suddenly stopped recognizing a password I'd used for months. I Requested a pw change to fix this problem. An email arrived. When I clicked on it I was told "the link was no longer valid" This happened multiple times. Have not been able to sign on for about 2 weeks to a service I'm paying for. There is no customer care address. The site states they have a HELP form online - it is un-findable. I see that others are having similar problems. I have tried to write to "support" one last time to resolve tis but will probably be requesting my money back.

Tip for consumers:
Please see my previous paragraph about login glitches, unavailable address to write customer care and repeated technical login problems never resolved.

Elite single is the most bad app that I saw. There is no interaction. There's hardly anyone there. So there are very ugly people. You can only see 20 people a day. And it doesn't show the profile of these people, it only shows the half photo, the name and the city. I paid over $100 for 3 months. I'm on my third day and I want my money back.

Tip for consumers:
Bad app!!!!

They put you through all the bs and then do not follow any of your requested information. Age, location, ect. They gave me suggestions that were 500 miles from me. What a joke. As far as customer care goes, they have none. One star is too many!

This website is riddled with fake profiles. I suspect it is more for data mining its customer base's personal information for sale to 3rd parties than anything else. It claims to solicit feedback then fails to provide a means to do so. Will not answer questions put to customer service. Claims made about #of educated singles are total BS. STAY AWAY!

Tip for consumers:
Stay away from Elite Singles!

I've been on this dating site almost a year on and off. You can send and receive smiles and see matches from men. I often sent messages but never received replies. I finally realized that most of these men don't bother with the premium membership, so you never hear back from them because they don't see your messages? Its truly a waste of money. Most never read my messages because they can't! I literally had 2 men write messages over a year of membership but I probably sent about 30 messages...

Tip for consumers:
The only pro about this website is there are less scammers on it than others I have been on by far. And its easy to report the suspicious ones immediately...

Many dating sites that I have used have a dedicated customer service number but, EliteSingles does not. I'm running into issues with the "explore" function but, have had not found any helpful answers provided by other members. If your spending good money to use there website then they need to apply some of that money to a dedicated telephone customer service department.
