“Game changer!”

Met loads of amazing attractive women. No munters or time wasters at all. Just copious numbers of frustrated foxes looking for attention and affection. I can't ever see myself getting into a long term relationship with anyone because you can meet several sirens a month on this site. I'm very sore but happy. Give it a go! Not really it's a con

Dear subscriber, DONT pay money to this website. It is totally fake. No real male or female is there for dating. You have to buy 1000 coins in 25 Canadian dollar and as soon as you pay the money immidiately 10 to 20 will message you. As soon as you reply one time in chat and they will deduct 50 points. And no result because other end artificial software is replying to you. BEWARE OF THIS SCAM. DONT PAY OR ENTER CREDIT CARDS

Tip for consumers:
It’s big scam .immidiately must be stopped

Signed up and nothing but regrets. Nothing but spambots to get you to spend more money. Account deletion has not happened with multiple requests even after six months. Contacted support and only response was for them to respond with this auto response.

Each account has been the same pictures and online 24 hour a day for months. Many are stolen profiles as I have spoken with the actual people on other sites and they did not have an account there and the ones that had were closed off supposedly and no longer in use.

Ticket NR.: **************

On the portal, the vast majority of users are real people who want to meet other people and have fun. They register voluntarily and decide on their own for what purpose they are here.
As you can read in the terms and conditions there are also profiles that are only for entertainment. With these no meeting is possible.
Please note that we have no influence on the behavior of the users. Whether a meeting comes about is up to everyone.

Additionally, however, there are entertainment profiles that are not here because they want to meet new people, but to keep you entertained and for people who just want to chat.

Support Team iDates

Tip for consumers:
DO NOT REGISTER they will not delete account even upon multiple requests and is filled with fake accounts to get you to buy more "coins" which need to send messages.

I am male, not bad looking, but I would never expect to receive 15 - 20 interested female contacts per day. I strongly believe that none of the females are genuine. # We are in the middle of the Corona Virus, but I am still receiving requests for a date TONITE? COSTLY TO RESPOND TO MESSAGES & NONE CONSIDERED GENUINE. ## All messages you receive contain simple chat lines that require simple answers that cost you to respond to. One female is listed as being 46, but is pictured next to a cake saying 'HAPPY 50th'.

No one will ever actually meet you! They just want you to chat and spend more money. No one will ever commit to meeting you. The profiles are all fake and run by bots.

Lots of chatbots - maybe only chatbots - to get you to send as many messages as possible because you pay for each message. That lesson only cost me 5 bucks but I am giving it to you for free!

There is no one on idates.com looking for a date other than you. They are all fake and respond to you for continuous chat and for you to continuously pay.
AVOID LIKE THE PLAGUE!

As close as I can tell, IDates is an experiment in AI (artificial intelligence) I just put $200 worth of coins through it, looking for patterns and I found that as soon as you go on line, you will receive about 5 emails from other clients to get you answering the messages. This will cost you 5 coins to start and you can blow through $25 in an hour. I would say that at least 90% of the profiles are computer generated. Something in the program will flag you as a spender and the real people with follow a SOP that has proven in the past to be profitable.
I thought that the people running the site would get someone real to keep an eye on was happening, but they didn't. It is what I call a manufacturer site. You got a couple of computers, a whole pile of profile data, perhaps one person per shift to keep an eye it and that is it. I asked one girl that I spent about $100 in coins on to marry me, just to see if the reaction was human or methodical. It was methodical as when I posed the question, her answer was "oh that is nice hun" so the software got it wrong. I laughed so much because at that point I had convinced myself of my suspicions. Try it yourself. You will use 1/2 of the coins that I did because I have told you where to look. All answers are AI composed and delivered. I watched the software screw things up twice when the pictures and profile data was mixed up with the one beside it. 5 seconds later, the computer realizes its mistake and things are immediately corrected. Need I say more. Only a computer could have done that. These guys are making millions and I doubt that they needed anymore than $10K to start the site off. Unbelievable! A smart bunch of guys! Now I would like to emphasize that I have no specific training on computers and operate at a normal household level. I do not want to be sued for an opinion. You choose to believe it or not.

Tip for consumers:
If you do experience a problem with the site, you have to a number in Switzerland. No representative in Canada. Really no service. The most you can loose is $25. These people make so much money that they are not even going to argue with you. Paying you is the cheapest solution. If the computer screws up your credit, your screwed. There is no one to appeal to.

This site totally a waste of money and your money only.
The photos of the woman on this site do not match the communication coming from the woman. You think your talking to a well educated professional woman in Brisbane for example but you are talking to some woman of Asian decent or similar that the site has set up to scam you of coins. They slip with up time zones and you will see they come on line later in the night and into the AM hours. Today is good example i asked a question at 8.46pm about how your day was and the the response was i will clean the house today she forgot also that she told me that she cleaned it yesterday. In another case i recieved a message from a woman then within 10 minutes i recieved the same message word for word from another woman. When i questioned them one said something must be wrong with my phone and the another one nasty. Thinking that was the end of them they then 2 days later starting sending me messages again this time about 30 minutes apart. They forget your name constantly and keep repeating the same questions so you will waste another 50 coins answering them. Another thing i noticed was there seems to be a lot of woman in cars driving on the LHS now yes some maybe on holidays but i doubt it. Check the back ground in the photos as well. There maybe some real woman on this site but its going to cost you a lot of your money to find the real ones. If you do not respond to the woman they get negative and snappy in there response messages coming back to you. If do try this site ask questions quickly and see what response you get
And then hopefully you will quickly realize you have a fake one. Save your money hello's and go to another site that's cheaper and the woman are real. DO NOT GO ON TO THIS SITE ITS FAKE

IDates THE BIGGEST FRAUDULENT COMPANY I HAVE COME ACROSS WITH 100% FAKE PROFILES OF WOMEN! AND ILLEGALLY CHARGING MY CREDIT CARD WITHOUT MY AUTHORISATION!
I CANCELLED MY SERVICES PERMANENTLY under the my ORIGINAL username. IDates CONFIRMED THIS AT 19.18 GMT stating - " By clicking on the following link, your user data and the associated profile will be deleted from our portal in compliance with data protection regulations."
Despite this statement iDates RECREATED A FAKE PROFILE WITHIN MILLISECONDS WITHOUT MY PERMISSION on the website under a new USERNAME with my email AND CONTINUES TO PUSH NOTIFICATIONS TO ME FROM THEIR DATABASE OF FAKE WOMEN PROFILES. I HAVE JUST UNSUBSCRIBED FROM THIS SECOND FAKE PROFILE ILLEGALLY CREATED AS WELL, YET AM STILL RECEIVING EMAILS FROM IDates!
SO MUCH FOR THEIR COMPLIANCE
IDates HAVE ALSO STOLEN MY DETAILS AND CREATED A FAKE PROFILE ON mDATES UNDER another FAKE PROFILE AND USER NAME (WHICH IS PROOF THAT IT'S THEIR SISTER COMPANY) with my email VIOLATING EUROPEAN GDPR REGULATIONS!

THIS PROVES CATEGORICALLY THAT iDates, mDates are A TOTAL FRAUD AND NEED TO BE TAKEN TO COURT.

I have REPORTED THEM BOTH YOU TO THE EUROPEAN INFORMATION COMMISSIONER. AND GOING TO THE PRESS TO HIGHLIGHT THEIR FRAUDULENT PRACTICES.

Tip for consumers:
DO NOT USE.
