Hello, I am Carolina and I am looking for a husband. So far, it has been a rip off, we ladies have to pay for kisses, emails and viewing profiles. Paying for stuff is a job for men. Men pay for sex and love, women give the same for love and security. The world is like that. Tired of doing lame personality tests, proofing my picture and asked to pony up money for premium services. All these sites are a sham.
All the positive review here are fake 100%.
You are ripped off at every chance. You cant open any email unless you keep paying. You recieve tons of fake messages from the wesite itself. Which is outragious. You cant believe any other legit interest after that... What a shamless cheap scam.
Tip for consumers:
Stay away. Waste of money
Beware of this site! They will continuously charge your credit card without you knowing. I was charged 2 times for 15.99 which I didnt approve of! I had to block my credit card! Facebook should remove their ads for this is a total motherf*ckin scam!
Hello Mee!
Sorry to hear about your payment issue. Please contact our support team at support@dating.com and our managers will review your profile and refund if the charge was erroneous.
This site, along with it's affiliated sites, are a true SCAM! You must purchase "credits" in order to read/respond to chat + emails which will cost you a lot of money just to find out entire profile you were communicating with is FAKE! I found NUMEROUS profiles REPORTED as "fake" directly on a website plus directly REPORTED all the fake profiles directly to Dating.com with links. Their response? They did NOTHING! Be careful if you join! You will be paying for untrustworthy site, profiles and a complete business which needs to be completely shut down. What a disgrace this company and its affiliates actually exist and continue fraud, every minute of every day.
Tip for consumers:
With OVER 10 fake profiles I directly reported to Dating.com, NO INVESTIGATION occurred. Be EXTREMELY CAUTIOUS! You MUST pay $ to simply read a message…therefore you will be drained of $ for FAKE PROFILES.
Dear Kelly,
Hi! We have the Anti-scam Policy in use. We fight hard against fake profiles and scammers. Please send us a link to a profile you experienced issues with to support@dating.com and we’ll personally check the profiles again for you.
Not only is the profiles false and created to scam you but false advertises as having unlimited messaging for premium subscription. Complete lie don't bother. The support team never responds
As many people know, this website just works like a Slotmachine, I'm very dissapoiinted becasue
You can only be in touch by paying money, comparet to others places it's too expensive!
The verified profiles are totally fake, profiles that are not verified are real people.
Why should you buy a present to exchange information? That´s not logical!
Don´t waste your money here and their other partners.
Dear KC,
Hi! Our prices may seem a bit high, but the money asked for the service goes for its improvement. Check what you get for it: anti-scam protection, constant updates with new exciting features. You can look at it from this side: you are paying for a great experience and emotions and we are doing our best to provide that experience to you.
I have been a member of the Zoosk dating site for some six months. Today (20 June 2020) I attempted to log into my account only to find that I could no longer access my account. Mind you that I had subscribed to this site. I call the customer service number to complain that my account has been hacked but only to find out that Zoosk had discounted my account. The individual that I was speaking to was from a foreign country because I couldn't understand her English. Which by the way, makes the customer service interaction even more frustrating. I asked her why my account was disabled. She gave me an explanation that I couldn't understand a word that she stated. I wouldn't advise anyone to subscribe to this dating site. With all the scammers on the site Zoosk disabled my account without any explanation. Buyer be aware.
Hi Tiger,
Let me kindly inform you that we are not Zoosk and we don't have any connections with that company. Right now you are writing to Dating.com :). If you have any questions about our site (Dating.com) please tell us and we will be happy to answer. Consider trying our site out, I'm sure you will have a lot of fun.
Unfortunately i wasted some money before i realised i was corresponding to a scammer, fraud. STERLING T, 41. He is a popular member. Nearly 24/7 online. Always insisting only to chat or send e-mails on this dating platform.He is chatting two different woman at the same time. Maybe more! I have attached the correspondences. He hasn't recognised me and talking to me thinking i was a different woman. Never accepted to talk on social media. No where else is possible even if it is free! I talked to him from a new user account and the compliments were fix. Same sentences but different advertising of himself. Playing with people's feelings. For money? Is he working there as a chat provider or for what reason he is forcing women to subscribe and buy more and more credit... I ALREADY wrote a lot of complaint e-mails about it but his profile is still available on dating.com but my account is deleted right away. So disappointed. When i wanted to face him, started to talk about God and said i was scammer for testing him. He hasn't even felt ashamed. Please be very careful. ANTONY 40, PARIS is fake too. Be careful precious women...
Tip for consumers:
Please be very careful with popular members. There are so many fakes.

Dear Elif,
Thank you for your feedback.
I'm sorry to hear that. Perhaps, there was a little misunderstanding between you and him?
Being online is quite a common thing in 2020-2021, especially during lockdowns around the world. You can talk to him or find someone more old-fashioned, who likes offline much more.
Sometimes men can use the same words and compliments communicating with different women. Some women do the same. Is this bad? I doubt that.
Yes, members can communicate with different people here, just like in real life - we never frame ourselves in communication with the only human.
However, if something makes you uncomfortable, the best way of resolution - is a conversation! Have you tried discussing that with him? Discussing, not pressing, or attacking. Maybe he could have explained himself and both of you could find some solution for you.
Please let me mention communication with different people is not a scam. Any of us communicate with different people each day just because it's human nature. We can't live without society, without communication and communication gives us a feeling of being in society.
I joined Dating.com 2 weeks ago, first I just was reading introduction e-mails from members, I agree with the majority reviews in here, that so many profiles are fake. When I decided to upgrade by membership, it was by 19.90$ for 150 credits, when I filled it for Datemy Age up with PalPay, its didnt go through and 1 second later gave me the option of 49.90$, I thought I pushed something wrong, so the chance of getting this offer with 19.90$. I bought the membership with 49.90, answered 8 chats and read about 5 answers, an hour later in was written that my credit is gone, for 8 short messages and reading 5 answers 50$!
Today I decided to get the offer of 19.90 $ for Eurodate, same think happened, its didnt go through and the second later it was an offer of 49.90$. I contacted live chat, they dont help at all. I want to unscribe from this cheating site
Women, regular women using dating.com – be very careful and check the men you chat with. There are several fake profiles.
If he denies to make a video call with you, needs days to make a photo or video for you, rejects any other way of communication and insists to contact you only on that site – this should be a big alarm for you. This profiles bellow are fake. I don't know if and if yes - how the real persons are involved, but you should know that you are not talking with the men on the pictures. Some examples:
Lars, 46 from Oslo on Dating is Ukrainian actor and model Rey Eremey.
Oscar, 46 from Los Angeles is Russian model and actor Dmitry Koshelev.
Dean, 49 from Berlin is Russian model Dimentij Romashov.
And my advice: When you chat with a "Popular member" copy his picture and check it with Google images or review sites with Russian, Ukrainian, other country or global models. You will find many surprises.
Tip for consumers:
Dating.com is a scam website with fake profiles.
Hello Kristina.
We agree, not 100% of our members are real. However, we do our best to fight them. So we would appreciate it if you contact us with the details about these members, so we could check.
This site keeps taking my money with out giving me any credits. I paid £15.99 twice on the 21st of july and never recieved credits but according to them ive used them i never chatted to any ladys after i paid. Trying to explain to them is like talking to a brickwall
Hi there Kenny! Thank you for your review! We're truly sorry to hear about the inconvenience! Looking into your account, we can see that after purchasing the 20-credit package twice on the 21st of July, you had indeed used up the credits on the email service, and later on the Let's Mingle service and Video chat. Please feel free to reach out to us anytime at support@dating.com and we'd be happy to provide your recent credit expenditure and a price list of our services for your reference anytime! We look forward to your message and hope you can give us a chance to create a better experience for you!
I have communicated with a member on dating.com since a moment, wanted to have video chat with him but he doesn't have access to video chat, I told him to solve this problem he said he will try latter, I told him to show himselfe in live but he said he doesn't know how to do, I asked him if he has Skype or other applications to chat for free but he said he just has this app to chat hahaha, a big liar! Nobody doesn't have it on mobile and another problem is when he sends me letters everytime he must starts with my name but one time he forgot and I saw that he typed "username" instead of my name, what does it mean? Did he prepare his letters before and try to send to many users with the same letters but he just changes the names of users in the beginning? You can see the prove on my attached image. Does he work for this website to make people spend more and more money to communicate with him? Too much of doubts about him, I will stop and ask for money refund from dating.com.
Dear Malisa,
Thank you for your feedback.
I am sorry to hear about such an experience - please contact us at support@daring.com, we would be happy to guide you on your way to getting closer to this or any other member.
Yes. Its awfull site! Dating.com offer me to pay 2.99 dollars for the possibility to answer the messages from men during month and when I agree it takes from my card 15.99 dollars in 5 minets and 15.99 dollars in 5 minets again! And I can not to delete my profile there and stop it. I just close and seek for the answer what to do. And now I will go to take all money from my card and change that!
Hello, Anatasia! The additional charges could happen if you used the service not included in the subscription. Please tell us have you contacted customer service for clarification? Our managers will be glad to assist you.
My profile was supposed to be deleted a months ago and its still up because they want people responding - money for them. This site is not user friendly nor is it customer friendly - it is the WORST EXPERIENCE I HAVE EVER HAD. They do not respond to messages - they are BULLIES. A complete rip off. Using my profile even though I have deleted it over and over trying to get it taken down. As a favourite I get many emails and messages and this is why they have kept it up for their gain. The men are left hanging because I cannot reply. My ID number is *******142. Worst site ever
Dear Ngaire Fay Drage,
I'm extremely sorry that you had such an unpleasant experience with us. I can see that you reached out to us using an online chat service and requested to cancel your membership, which we successfully did at the same time as your request. I'm so sorry if there was a misunderstanding and you meant to delete your account completely and not just cancel a membership auto-renewal. We do respect the decision of our members to put their accounts on hold or delete them completely, and we act on their requests accordingly. I can see that your account is no longer active, but if you decide to come back, you are more than welcome.
I joined 2 mins ago, i have had a dosen invites to join a video chat and half that many messages. The messages are paragraphs long and i didn't even have a bio at the time. They all referred to my bio. Scetches me out.
Tip for consumers:
Be very careful. Put up zero information until after the bot attacks. If ever
Dear Eric
Thank you for your feedback. Please be informed that we are an online dating site that also gives full opportunity to members without having the photos to interact with members and get the full experience. We are sorry if you felt overwhelmed. We can always assist you if you reach us at support@dating.com.
I found the person on Instagram and his real name is WALTER VICCA. He is an actor and model in Brazil and not a Gynecogical Surgeon in Berlin. Infact all of the pictures used at Dating.com were just lifted on this actor's IG account. His son's name is Jonathan and not Walter, Jr. For all the misrepresentations made by this company and its partner handling the curated subject, I think all those who have been used and victimised by them are entitled to a refund. This is the only one I saw that has given a VERY ACCURATE and detailed information that this is indeed a SCAM, no less. Dating.com always boastS itself on saying that they take issues on fake profiles seriously. What now?
* Dating.com attempted to help this customer through the Sitejabber Resolution Center, but the customer did not respond
This site is a scam on two fronts. First you pay a monthly subscription to talk to the girls but they are bots. But even after you sign up and pay you can't talk to them without purchasing more credit's. When you give them your contact information they all will reply that they want to stay here and chat. Why? Because it will cost you more money to talk to their robots.
Also, I have never seen so many girls online at two in the morning. It's pretty amazing that ever girl that I just happen to be interested in are all online at two in the morning. They are all wide awake and ready to chat. Lol
Second, I posted my contact information on my profile and those that do contact me are usually scammers period! They start talking right away about investments and cyber currency which is your first red flag. I usually ask them to send me a picture of themselves holding up two fingers or if I'm on WhatsApp I ask them to send me their current location.
I'm hoping that someone will file a class action lawsuit against them and hopefully put these scammers out of business!
Whatever you do, don't sign up for their subscription because it's a pin to cancel it.

After wasting 60 dolllars on chatting with a girl that said she absolutely wanted to meet me, she stopped texting when I sent my regular email, go figure there after I left the pay per text and she wasnt getting her commission anymore, if it was her on other end, might be a large fat man for all I know, but they drained my paypal account quickly, I texted 14 more girls that said they saw my profile and wanted to "talk" but when I sent my regular email, suddenly NO REPLY across the board, not a single response, go figure, absolute total scam site, BTW im middle aged, considered handsome by most girls and have a pic on my profile working on my Ferrari. So I don't want to hear excuses. Lol. Fool me once shame on me. Don't waste youyr money.
Dear George,
Could you please provide us with your ID number or email registered? We will be happy to address your concerns once you contact us at support@dating.com
Kind regards,
Daria.
Full of fake profiles ((popular member) as models that keep sending msg ( even if you dint reply) like desperate ajajajjaja asking you stupid things, and showing you as they were interested in you, promising life and love, but just to make you pay credits for reading or writing them. It is the way to convince you they are real, so you keep paying and buying credits just to have a chat ajajajjajj. If you try to bring them out of the app, giving them your phone number, they keep talking as nothing, asking you to stay in the chat of dating!. Ajajajjajaja which man doesnt take your private phone.
They are scummer!
Dear Gio,

More information about our policies is available at: https://www.dating.com/people/# dating-securely

Alternatively, you can exchange contacts via video chat. You can check these services on the profile of the person with whom you wish to share contact information and choose what's available or not.
Biggest scam dating app full of fake profiles. Waste of money. They claim to verify their members but didn't verify me…
Tip for consumers:
If I can give it minus zero star I would
Hello and thank you for your feedback. All our members are protected by the anti-scam policy and we work the best we can in making the platform a safe community for every member. We make it appoint to verify members upon registration. However, we wouldn't deny the fact that there may be possibilities that unacceptable situation may occur, Hence, If we see that someone is misusing the platform we will make sure to take strict measures against such members and reimburse the credits you’ve spent on them provided that such member has confirmed account. Please report any suspicious account or activity at support@dating.com along with relevant details the proves the claim.
I spent over a year on this site and met many guys. I didn't took this site very seriously and I'm very glad I didn't. 99% of the guys I was texting with a bit were fakes and liars. Like everyone should I did a google picture search and found most of it (for the rest there other search engines). If you compare what it's written on their dating.com profile and what they write on IG it never matches. There are to many to count.
Thats why I will post only the picture of the worst case I had the pleasure to met with. Yep he is searching for his true Love but founds her on IG already. Also he made a lot of Copy Past mistakes like sending me the number of other members or the "Chat Up" text he sent to others during our active chatting. But he was not the only one doing that. If a guy from Latin America hits on you, ignore it. The videos? Well on one site he offered custom made videos so why not for dating.com as well? And he lets you wait or them a day or so... strange no? Many guys make have false ages. If you're looking for a guy in their forties you wont be interested in guys in their early thirties.
Hello Sina! Thank you for your review! We're terribly sorry to hear about your situation! Please rest assured that we do not tolerate any misidentification or misrepresentation on our platform. We constantly check and verify profiles on the app for your safety! Should we come across any member who is breaching our policies we will remove their profile immediately from our platform.

We hope to hear from you soon!

I had to pay three times 18x3 in one afternoon to chat!
I realized after sending my whatsapp to the people who said were very interested in talking there was no longer more contats! The men and photos are fake profiles. Fake messages! This is a WEBcrime!
Hi Ana!
Thank you for your comment.
Let me kindly inform you that it isn't actually possible to send your personal contact information in regular chat or email for security reasons. If you want to exchange contact details, you can use Video Chat or Flowers and Presents services.
Also, we fight hard against fake profiles and scammers. Please send us a link to a profile you experienced issues with to support@dating.com and we’ll personally check the profiles again for you.
Firstly I can't delete my profile and the members are fake plus the customer support center is useless they just ignore your issues, and I need to be refunded because what a scam this app is.
