EliteSingles

Elite has very few local members so it sends me old and remote matches. Elite's services are of the lowest quality. The App is poorly designed. I cannot delete those unwanted faces on my message list. Dating and searching on this website is not pleasure but suffering. People are not members without photos, but Elite will send them to you. If you contact them then they might want to read your invitation, and pay too high membership fee. In fact the website doesn't have enough members to run as a dating site.

-I signed up for 1 month and got into a 1-year membership.
-I was only billed 30 days after the purchase.
Making it impossible to refund the large sum taken from my account (According to "Katie" from support).
Predatory pricing.
-I am experienced with online purchases, but this caught me off guard.

*Will happily remove this message, if my request for a partial refund is granted, or if I have missed an important detail somehow*

Total crap! Did not even send 1 person that fit in to my criteria! All super old, lived far, zero quality. I'd rather get the fake vaccine then date one person they sent. I am thinking of telling my credit card company to not pay them and/or fight the charges. If you ask for a certain ethnicity, religion or whatever and they just send you the opposite its a scam in my book. 100% $#*!

Women: Don't waste time and money on this service.
Poor qualify men. Minimum searching distance is 50 miles! Cant see pic unless subscribed on min 3 months and once I saw pics. It was nightmare! Bad vibes. Can't get money back. It's horrible

After reading all these "professional" reviewers give this dating site 4.9/5, perhaps they should have actually tried it. After 4 months on the site, the only conversations I've had are with more scammers. Most of my matches only have a High School education, or don't even bother to complete the profile. Those I do converse with, quickly get pulled off the site for being fraudulent accounts. Lately I get people contacting me that want me to contact, not them, but other people off-site! This was the most money I have ever spent on a dating site, and I will never again! PLEASE don't purchase a membership. I met far better people on Zoosk, and Plenty of Fish for free.

I joined this site for 3 months (paid at once) and the clientele are absolutely NOT elite. There is clearly no screening or matching going on. I don't think it even recognizes your preference settings. I am looking for a more educated, higher earning partner who is my equal. What a joke. Don't waste your money!

When I set my profile up they would not allow one picture, I don't know why. But I get dozens of likes with pictures of women and their phone number written over it so they don't vet them properly. Worst dating site I have ever been on unworthy of the name, Elite. Join at your peril!

Does not live up to its advertised promises. The majority of men on here do not post a photo (as you will see in the photo below). Also they do not write more than a few words about themselves. So it is impossible to figure out if they might be a fit. EliteSingles advertises that 80% of people on here have a college or university education. Not true in my experience. Most men had high school diploma or less. Also, even though I requested matches that live in my area they keep matching me with men who live across the county much farther away. I've requested a refund.

8 out of 10 contacts that contacted me I was informed shortly after that they are scammers with fake profiles. It's the worse dating site I've joined especially after paying for it. The app doesn't work well either. They need to do proper verification before allow profiles to be seem.

Insists that they will match you with """elite""" / highly educated individuals but almost every 'match' is high school diploma or girls that are barely 18, no matter how many times you set your preference to age appropriate matches and higher education settings. Every profile is old, a match that ignores your preferences, or fake. They make you pay upfront to use basic features before you can realize it's a bad deal. Stick with more well-known sites, or location based dating apps.

Joined this website was a half year ago, was not going to renew the membership after the due date but they renewed it without my consent, even-thought with the cancellation message I got from them as a proof, but they wont return the money back to me no matter what! Leaving my comments here just let the others to aware of it, or don't even use it as there is very litter chance you will meet the right person from this site.

RUN! The site is clunky, and I receive 1 or 2 scam messages on a DAILY basis (see example below). People I message never respond (OK, may not be a "looker"...), and the few who "like me" live thousands of miles away and haven't read my profile. There are a lot of men on this site with high school diplomas, and not the educational minimum promised. This site is a waste of time, but more than that, it leaves me with an uneasy feeling that I have been duped and that my identity could potentially be compromised.

-almost no local matches. In live in Detroit, and after six months only a handful within 3 hours

-constant spam makes it impossible to tell if someone is real or not

-after asking to cancel, they continue to charge me and will not stop. Had to cancel my card to get rid of these people.

Avoid at all costs

Site is full with "BOTS". Numerous fake profiles. I thought this would be a great site for higher income professionals but not in the millionaire status-I was wrong. Suspect profiles and pics were submitted to customer service and these profiles are still active... Rip Off... I gave them one star because they were willing to refund my balance for the unused months I paid for.

I signed up with them thinking it was a legit site as I was looking for a friend that matched my education level. Well, I got plenty of responses, "Jane Doe Sent a Smile". Try to reply back, but no response. Hmmm. Well, maybe they are not interested? I replied to at least 30 of the "Sent Smile" messages to start a conversation with no reply. If someone sent me a smile, I thought I would get back at least one reply!
So it gets worse, now my debit card is being charged for all kinds of different dating sites! Thank goodness I have fraud protection and my bank refuses those kinds of transactions. I would avoid and go with a more mainstream site. Cheers!

I signed up and then cancelled 3 hours later. Today I happened to be looking for something in my bank statement and saw they billed me for $172.00. Absolute scammer rip offs. I send an email telling them a second time today to cancel. Don't waste your time on these sites. If you want to meet someone then keep your eyes open to those around you within your daily walk.

An "elite" site who's sole functionality is matching people with like people, doesn't require anyone to fully fill out their profile or post pictures. Most matches came in the first week of signing up, and most of them told me nothing about themselves or had pictures. ALL messages and smiles sent to me were from people out of state. If they are going to make this site successful, they need to require everyone to take it seriously. This was a total waste of my time and money.

This is the worst dating app I've experienced. It he "wild cards" are in different countries - because that will work out well for dating. The site does not really follow your criteria. I've seen more profiles that I have no comparability with. It's an extremely disappointing app. I don't recommend it.

The platform is inferior and feels very dated. On the app, the photos are cropped so you cannot see faces. There is no method for sorting, deleting matches. When you click on likes, the profile photo has no functionality so it's impossible to see who liked you without looking that person up on the list of matches. Overall, a very frustrating experience - i do not have the patience to deal with it. I called the customer support number to try to get a refund and was on hold for 40 minutes. Finally gave up - wasted $200+.

This site is the worst site I've ever used. I signed up. They take all the money up front. No matches locally that meet my criteria. There is no matching at all in fact, and you can only get a few suggestions per day, most of them are not active members. I'm a 43 year old woman in Minneapolis, and the photos below are my "matches."

The app runs slow, never displays pictures in the matches tab and I'm always under review. I am confused on how it works and I support IT! To remove someone you pick the permanently delete and block that's harsh. I think OKCupid is much better. What a waste of money

Hi there. On July 31,2021 I signed up as a paid member for EliteSingles to meet quality people who are compatible with me. Unfortunately in the past few months that I've been a paid member, not just I met anyone, nor have been matched with anyone. Any messages I received from so called members, were followed up with ES customer care warning of my safety or of fake account. This was supposed to be fun exploration for a partner not an annoying experience. This has been very frustrating! I feel ES makes promises that can't keep and takes peoples money without adding any value. I sent a request for a refund my money. I am not interested in this game.

I wish I knew this before I registered.

I purchased a subscription thinking it was going to be a great site to possibly meet someone. That has Not been the case. Instead, I receive many emails stating that they've found a match, but that they'd love for me to meet a friend. They include an email address for me to contact "their friend/colleague." I receive at least one of these messages per day, up to 3 daily. Naturally, I report them to the EliteSingles. I tried to cancel with a partial refund. (Trying to contact Customer Service was a nightmare. Unable to speak to someone.) I do Not recommend this site. It's extremely overpriced for what you'll receive!
