I checked out this website to see if it would be something I'd want to pay for, and I'm not sure it quite fits that for my tastes. As a gay man, generally I prefer to go to sites that are either queer-focused - having a stronger sense of what my needs are for a dating site - or with clear queer influence into how the site is set up, such as OkCupid. That said, the site was overall professional-looking and solid. I did have trouble uploading an image, but otherwise I set up a profile very easily, saw at least one person in my area of interest, and I enjoyed filling out the icebreakers. I can imagine using this in the future but would probably want more of a taste of what's available before spending money on it (I wasn't able to look at anyone's profile in any depth).
These are the "NAZIS", of the "INTERNET"! I signed up for Six Months and was on for only a day and they terminated my account without giving me ANY REASON WHY! A year previous to joining again I disputed the charge with them because their "FEATURES" were not working for me and I kept e-mailing them to tell their Tech Dept. of the problem and NO ONE ever wrote back to me and that is why I "disputed the charge"! I waited one whole year before I tried to subscribe again and I subscribed for "six months". It worked for "ONE DAY" and then they blocked my account for "NO REASON"! They act like "Nazis"! You are "banned" for "LIFE"! No one writes back to you and there is no phone number to call them back on! I don't know "HOW" they are still in business...WE NEED TO WORK TO GET THEM "CLOSED DOWN" FOR "GOOD"!

Tip for consumers:
LET'S GET "ZOOSK" REMOVED FROM THE INTERNET! THEY ARE A "FRAUDULENT WEBSITE AND HAVE FAKE PROFILES AND SCAMMERS ON THERE"...THEY SENT ME FAKE PROFILES AND SCAMMERS ON THERE! TO LURE YOU IN THEY SEND YOU ATTRACTIVE LOOKING MEN THAT DON'T EXIST ON THEIR WEBSITE. YOU CAN WRITE TO 20 PEOPLE AND YOU ARE LUCKY IF EVEN "ONE" PERSON WRITES BACK! AS A FORMER "MODEL", IT IS HARD TO IMAGINE THAT NO ONE WOULD WRITE BACK! AND THEN, ZOOSK "BLOCKS" MY ACCOUNT!
So, this site not only creates fake profiles, sends you messages that are artificially generated, but when you cancel and ask for your profile to be removed….they do not respond. It's been six weeks since I cancelled my subscription and asked for my profile to be removed. I am still getting messages from the platform saying people are sending me messages! There is no way to contact a person and no one seems to be responsible for this site. I do NOT recommend them! BTW – got the most scammers responding to me on this site as well. They do nothing to qualify individuals are real.
Tip for consumers:
Not worth the time, energy or cost.
Not my kind of members, I rather be alone. No better way to describe it. Clicked on one profile and he just did not get the message 'NO'...
This is the second time I have been on zoosk and I guess shame on me. They are not helpful the same picture circulate over and over and over again and then they give you these men that live far away and there's only a few that are close if they are even real.
I was not able to find where you could put in what you want your distance to be and again the same picture cycle over and over and over that say they viewed you and there's no looking at someone unless I guess you go visible and you have to pay for that extra.Zoosk is not worth your money.

And other legit platforms. I have never had an issue with ladies there. I thought Zoosk would be a similar site, but it turned out to be completely opposite: full of scam, corrupt at every level, with exuberant costs - a daylight robbery. There are bunch of scammers using other people's pics to fleece gullible men out of their money via endless chatting.
At first, I didn't enjoy the multiple ways to navigate. It feels like a video game. The worst part though are the many fake profiles. There are also a bunch of really old profiles and inactive ones.
I feel from my experience Zoosk@ https://www.zoosk.com/ Zoosk.com is full of players and no one comes across as serious on Zoosk in looking for a real relationship. What do we expect for free? Sometimes we get what we pay for. I recommend trying a paid option to see if your chances improve in having better luck with chemistry in finding a soulmate or partner if that is what you want.
Tip for consumers:
Zoosk offers no refund on paid dating services. Think before you pay Zoosk. Is it really worth it?
I don't have much experience with online dating, but this seems like a scam. It's free to sign up and make a profile, but when you try to look at messages, you have to pay. Also, there are coins you can buy to make yourself more visible to other users. It just seems kind of sketchy overall. Like if you made an account with no information they would send you fake messages hoping your curiosity would get you to pay for the subscription to read them.
Tip for consumers:
I really think it's a scam.
A good online dating site should be easy to get registered on, and also easy to navigate people's profiles and choose who to make friends with. Before I got to know about zoosk, I had terrible experiences on many online dating sites! However, with Zoosk I am really having a great time meeting real and nice people online that have become really close friends. The zoosk support system are just simply amazing. I recommend them to you if you are like me who have little or no time to socialize physically. You will definitely love it
Tip for consumers:
My advice is that you make sure you are chatting with a real person before committing yourself. Most people on Zoosk are real, but there are still few fake people there. So be careful
This app is so horrible. It's free to download and make an account but you have to pay to talk to people. Ads even pop up out of nowhere. There is no point of signing up for this. There are better dating apps that you don't have to pay to talk to people. I tried to filter my search by looking for older men but it only went to 42. This app is horrible and I don't recommend.
Tip for consumers:
Do not use this site!!!
Chris and I talked several times and knew we had something special! Distance and past experiences kept us guarded at first. We decided to meet and are no longer dreaming of love but experiencing it with each other! Best Valentine's Day ever! Have faith and NEVER give up or settle because that "special person for you" is out there!
Never pay for any dating sites why would anyone pay for something that makes no Guarantee of anything your better off taking your money to the casino fake profiles people super far away and nobody ever responds complete crap

Tip for consumers:
Keep in mind you don't get very much for free - you have to pay for a lot of the content.
I've looked at the way other big name online dating platforms, such as Hinge and Bumble are set up, and the way Zoosk is, is far from that. The App as well as the website need to be updated, it's not set up where a modern day customer can use the platform and not feel confused or overwhelmed by how crowded everything is. I also can't even imagine how confusing it must be to know whether the person you're talking to is a real person or not. Making a profile takes only a minute and there is barely any verification involved to confirm whether or not you are a real person.
Having glanced through some of the negative reviews, I can only echo their complaints. You get the feeling most accounts on here are fake. But what is maddening is that I know Zoosk could do something about it and they don't. They won't let you search by verified accounts. They do nothing for IP location tracking. After you've looked at enough profile pictures, you realize most of them are fake and claim they live in these remote places no one knows about. I wish I felt like these reviews would force their hand.
Ok, so I decided to go the free route & put in the bare minimum - no pic, no bio, no height, weight, build & of course NO pic - in other words zero.
Within a day I got women checking me out & saying they would like to meet me, they liked my profile etc. W-T-F?
Save your money & go elsewhere or try something different - actually approach people, use your connections & avoid those who hide behind the Internet looking for the love of their life.
Tip for consumers:
Save your money.
Don't do it! This is a fake bull$#*! site and majority of the guys are not serious or paying customers so your messages go unanswered.The same guys just keep viewing your profile with no intentions of pursuing a relationship
I signed up for this site with no expectations. Until I met a young lady that I really want to spend time with and get to know her. While accessing the site, however, was a bit troublesome. I would remove people from my views only to see them again. It was okay but I think this is overpriced. Then you can't access they app won't allow you to pay with certain cards. Exhausting to say the least.
Yup. Fake profiles. If it's a beautiful woman with only one pic and no bio, it's FAKE. They have minions they use to send out messages and pretend to be real. Never more than a few sentences and never get anywhere. Get your money back through customer service at
The software is crap. Always doing the wrong thing and not reliable at all. P. O. S.
Zoosk is an absolute time-waster and money-grubber focused on making it impossible for you to cancel your membership. At best it can be just the place where you can hook up a prostitute (if you are lucky, she will show up).
In the site, you can't "remove" people from your potential dating list, and they will keep appearing no matter what you do.
This is the most useless site I've ever used!
I'm giving this site a great review because I met a great guy. I do want to say though that it's very overwhelming... too many messages from too many people. I don't like rejecting people and this site kinda makes you. Sometimes for no reason other than you can't really talk to so many people at the same time... at least I didn't want to. I'm sure there are several good guys who I didn't reply to just because there were so many. Not sure how I would fix this issue but maybe if you could only message the person once they have "liked" each other's profile? Also that one thing where they pic a match for you and all you can see is a picture? Really don't like that at all. Looks are part of connecting but to me a small part. I want to know about them before I say if I think they could be a match.
Great website. Im getting oral sex from her write now as I type this. Plus she makes a mean sandwich. My only complaint is that ZOOSK will show you people that have viewed your profile but then won't allow you to view their profile. Either way it worked.
This is an overpriced site. You will sign up and pay, but find a lot of girls on their have not paid, so you cannot communicate with them so easily. You can try and provide email address, but Site Admin will delete it. Anyway I did get a couple of dates. One was from a Greek lady, who could not stop swearing in a conversation. The other was a German, who straight away wanted me to model for her. I have now become great friends with the German girl. Now there are more real people on their rather fake which is good, but be careful of the recurring charges when subscription runs out. I will give 3/5 as I did make a good friend out of it, but if that did not happen, it would have been a 1/5.
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.
