“I also had good experience with this site”

Judy M.
12/8/12

I also had good experience with this site. Although I didn't find partner there but I had great fun with it. And what is even more, I have found many new friends to go out with or chat. I paid for 3 months subscription, followed cancellation process found on web. This site has a good content, fast, bit old-fashioned.

“That's why it is a scam”

Federico I.
6/11/24

That's why it is a scam You subscribe for some months and after very poor or no results at all you cancel your subscription in order not to pay for a zero service. The problem is that your profile together with other thousands of profiles, that also cancelled their subscriptions for the same reason, remain in force, but these very profiles are just like ghosts because they cannot receive o send messages and that explains why, in your turn, you cannot receive an reply to your messages; Be2 says that They might have already connected with someone else, they might not have been active on the site, or, unfortunately, they might not be interested in chatting right now. Mind you "they might not have been active on the site" then why if they are not active on the site they are still there? Just to say that Be2 boasts thousands and thousands of members? I would say thousands and thousands of ghosts... I've been the victim of scam.

Most profiles are fraudulent. Never got an answer to my 10 plus emails asking to cancel. Also deleted profile and they re-activated it. This is the most disgusting online dating site I've every encountered... Will be leaving bad reviews wherever I can... Will have to cancel credit card. Don't waste your money and valuable time... Stay away from these fraudsters...

Only got 1 star because I can; t post a comment with no stars! Absolute crooks, ridiculous hidden terms and conditions. To cancel you have to contact them 14 days in advance or they automatically renew for 6 months at a cost of £150. They require you to print out, fill in and FAX them a form, or scan and email it - and you then have to chase them. I've had threatening emails demanding more money even though they acknowledged my cancellation.
DO NOT under any circumstances join, visit or go anywhere near this website.

Please read the reviews, Be2 are excellent scam artists, if you try to cancel your membership they make it impossible and you can never speak to their customer service team directly, just get the same email over and over again. I am not writing this because I am an unsatisfied customer who hasn't met someone special, there are lots of other sites who have a better quality type of member and their cancellation policy is fair. Beware of Be2, try another site instead.

I signed up for the £5.00 special offer and cancelled my account in plenty of time only to be told they didn't receive my faxes to cancel so I sent more and tried to email but nothing happened. Then they took £149.00 out of my account and would no longer answer any of my emails or phone calls. Between the scammers and the profiles with no photographs I think the whole thing is a massive rip off. Don't join this site you will get nothing out of it except an empty bank account.

Constantly "matches" me with people hundreds of miles away and in a completely different age ranges to me despite me regularly checking that I have set geographical and age parameters. Customer services awful bordering on non-existent. A definite waste of money. There may be some lovely people on there - but if you have to trawl through 90 that are outside your location etc... to find the 1 who isn't, you just give up.

I like many others joined on the £5 trial, cancelled before the due date but was still charged. I emailed them telling them I had cancelled but all they said was I had a legal contract with them and I would have to pay! Now I keep getting threatening emails about sending the bailiffs round and taking me to court! I don't believe they are even based in the UK so how can they? Just a bunch of rip off merchants out to get our money, don't give a monkeys about anything else. They should be ashamed of themselves.

Clear scam, all 16 people who messaged me ALL had impeccable English and all were flattering. I'm glad I never subscribed.

But if you're all looking for a FREE site use freedating.co.uk
At least they don't ask for subscriptions. Although the matchmaking lacks to the point for there being none, you only find people on the basis of where they live compared to you, what do you expect, it's free!

I want to actually give -0 stars. All very appealing on the outside but wait until you try to delete your profile. This review is not because I am upset about not meeting anyone, there are plenty of wonderful dating sites out there. I realised not long after I joined how incredibly difficult this site was to navigate and in terms of matches there were literally zero. When I tried to delete my account it was almost impossible to find where that was on their website and when I did it was ludicrous. There was also no contact number that worked. After sending endless emails and a letter to remove my profile I still kept getting charged. I eventually had to cancel my credit card and resort to the bank to get (some of) my money back. This website is a cover for thieves. Do yourself a favour and stay away!

I think one star is too much. It is a black hole. Scammers. Took my money and I actually never managed to see one photo or received a single compatible match.
I honestly do not understand how a site like this is still out there.
And very poor customer service. Stay away

A complete con. Like others I am now receiving threats of legal action. I had to phone my credit card company who were brilliant, I explained and they cancelled my card so be2 can't now take any money, I'm just so glad I didn't do this on a direct debit. What a nasty way to treat people who signed up to this site in good faith.

The only thing that I can say about be2 is that it is full of scammers. Having alerted them to one I was then confronted by another and another and so it went on! It was a good job I had a sense of humour as I was able to spot them and in the end signed in under false name to see if they would try and make contact again... bingo. Lol. The sad thing that there may be a few honest people there, of which I was one, but there were so many scammers that it was a pointless exercise. Watch out because they steal unprotected identities from facebook. Just remember a couple of things never give any of them money just don't get sucked into their stories however believable. It is very sad that be2 don't care but then why should they, they have your money and will keep sending you profiles. GET OUT FAST.

I tried this site some time ago but haven't got any problems with it. I don't know why there are only negative reviews. It seems to me that there are only people with bad experience writing biased reviews against this site. I tried one month as trial and after it I wanted to cancel my account. Then they send me special offer for 2 months plus one for free. I decided to stay and search profiles if there is somebody who would fit to me. Although I haven’t found anyone to fall in love with, I didn’t get into cancellation problem my subscription either. In their Terms and Conditions is written how to do it. So I followed it and got my subscription cancelled and account closed. Are there any scammers? Possibly, dating attracts scammers and some people wrote me weird messages, so I reported them. But which site doesn't have them? I don't think it is possible to avoid them completely. The only way you can skip scammers is not to respond and don't send money to anyone.

I have e mailed this site to give notice to end membership now two months later I m still receiving e mail saying I have a contract with them and they are going to use debt collection since the cannot take money from my account.

I m going to contact trading standards but not sure what else can be done.
They are sending me threatening emails I want to stop them doing it to me or anyone else.

Anyone with any ideas on how to stop them

Be2 buyer beware! I'm back to FlingEasy.com I used this service a few years ago. They have matured a lot since their release and I would say now it's the safest and the quickest way to meet women who are really down to anything.
Be2 website is full of scammers who are good at leaving men with heavy hearts and empty wallets. On top of that, it's run by fraudsters who manage to get away with scamming people. Multiple charges, unauthorized charges, auto-renewals – these are just a few of Be2 scam tricks. Don't hand over your bank details to Be2 - they have completely lost perspective of what a dating site should be like.

As my last girlfriend was very different than me, our relationship lasted only for very short time. When I heard about personality test at be2.co.uk I thought it could be something right for me. I started to look for the most suitable partner for me. They recommended me some profiles based on the test results and after becoming premium member I started to communicate with them. One of them looked very promising, so I decided to meet her. Unfortunately I was disappointed in the end because in the end she was completely different as it was written in her profile – but that of course has nothing to do with the product.

I've personally found out that this site is a fake, and should be closed down. I will forward my experiences to the FBI to avoid those scammers from asking women for money. How come every member on your site have a Masters, Bachelors, wife died, only one child living. This site is a disgrace
To the human race, and should be closed down. EB.

Its a 6/10 dating site for me. Not the worse out there but I prefer sites like wejustfit.com that are a tad more 'underground' and have people who know the internet better and IMHO are just more interesting

Quite like be2.co.uk. Good search system and busy site. Did have a small issue and had to call customer service, was disapointed that it wasnt UK based like the other site I use (WeJustFit.com) but thats a small complaint really. Its better than most sites and not having any problems with scammers so far. Descent enough value for money.

Agree with others on here - a sophisticated scam. I wish I had researched these comments before parting with money.
Lots of false profiles etc... but worse than that.
They'll tempt you in with reasonable price for the first month - then, wham!
Your bank account is deducted for 100Euro or more.
To cancel they insist on a Fax to Swiss Address - who has a fax machine these days? Grrr - feel so foolish for letting this happen.

The main site I'm using for dating is
http://j4Iove.com
-and it's pretty good. I regret the day I decided to give another site a shot. If you are well off you don't seek better. Otherwise, you often loose your money - this is what happened to me on Be2. They make it impossible to cancel and they keep charging you! Beware! Customer support ignores my requests to cancel membership! I want to cancel it because there are very few, if any, real women there. Just bots and fakes... so there is no point in my search there anymore. It doesn't help to report fakes because they never get banned. I see these profiles still online, "working" with their next victim. Ignore this site guys, don't make the same mistake as I did.

I am totally disappointed with this site, I have just lost my £149. I complained before the deadline but they waited and replied after the deadline saying that they cannot refund. Has anyone managed to get a refund so far?

Appalling service - the matches are haphazard and the site is difficult to navigate, in particular the search function makes it extremely difficult to find matches in just one area. The Customer Service is horrid - having sent them a fax in July 2007 to cancel the account they have refused to do so or speak to me and are now threatening legal action, despite me re-sending the information to them repeatedly. There is no easy way to cancel through the site, which breaches UK rules regarding sign-ups and contract dismissals for online services and they really couldn't give a stuff about their customers.

If I could give them no stars, I would.

On the site you can find a lot of fake profiles. After the one test month, the price is very expensive, and to deleting it is almost impossible. They try to take the money from your bank account, and if you don't pay, they are threatening you whit an retortion. My bill is more than 100 euro, what they want, only for one month using.
