It is practically a scam
May 7, 2021

Be aware.
They sell you a 6 months contract mine ends on Aug/21/21, but have no woman to show. They have 6-7 women and all far away from your zip code (in my case Waco TX and Greenville TX, nothing closer to *******). Or they spam you with profiles that are no longer valid. After a week or so they cut you off from any communications on the website. Calling customer service gets you an obvious young man that asks for your name and problem, laughs into the phone and hangs up. Yes, I have recorded it. I'm not the only one that experienced the same problem. Others here in my neighborhood have too. E-mails don't even bother. You never get an answer. Don't say you were not warned.

I joined SS over 3 years ago. Initially it seemed pretty decent. I met a few interesting matches. In the last year it has become an absurd joke. I get no less than 20 OBVIOUS scam emails every day. I've contacted admin who have pretty much said "sorry, we can't control the scammers". Really?! I know you can't control them completely but other sites seem to keep them in check. Unless you want to filter through 20:1 scam to legit contacts please save your money.

Waste of money
April 18, 2021

I signed up for the lowest paying option and looks like wasted my money. The matches have little in common with me and many are way outside my age preferences (10 or more years older), the ones that are seem to be romance scams (had 2 in my first month). Most guys start a conversation then you never hear from them again. Or you sent a smile (their form of like) and you are lucky if one responds to it. No different than the free sites except you waste a lot of money.

I signed up for and paid for the 6 month plan but chickened out after less than 24 hours. They refunded me without a problem. They have a 3 day trial period where you can get a refund. I only cancelled because im too shy! I'm so happy they were courteous. I recommend them. I will also use their site again if i ever get the courage.

NEEDLE IN THE HAYSTACK
December 24, 2022

I began communicating with a beautiful lady on this site and we have been on 5 dates so far. I am more than happy with my results. I won't deny I had to wade through many scammers that I'm sure infect other dating sites as well. Silver Singles does alert you when they suspect a problem with someone who has contacted you is not legit. After awhile you can ID these scammers on your own.

Match!
July 22, 2023

I went in with very low expectations. This was my first dating site. By the third contact via email, I had met an interesting man. He was very dubious as to my profile truthfulness. Never thought to lie. We talked regularly for several weeks. By the time we met in person, we were exclusive. Silver singles worked for us. 4 years+ together. Would have reviewed sooner but couldnt find this site.
But--be aware there are some fakes and scammers out there.

Too frustrating
September 4, 2023

You can set preferences but that doesn't matter, which is frustrating. I keep getting notifications- for nothing- just a clickbait, which is frustrating. People actually think they are gonna have kids with possible matches on this site. Could not change locations when I moved (or at least not immediately but I deleted my account before I checked back)

This site is a waste of time and money! All they do is play musical chairs with pictures of supposedly eligible singles and right non sense for them. Wonder if these people know their pics are being used! Was on hold too long as I attempted to speak to customer service. No one picked up just repeated a recording stating they were responding to other callers. Not very good customer service!
Sent emails... no response!

Liked several pictures and got random responses. One guy said he didn't know how to put up another pic? In this day and age? Well how did you get your profile pic up? Then the next day they send pics of eligible people outside of your geographical preferences and the company is not responding personally with info you filled out in the beginning!
Waste of time and money!

They are robbers! They don't mislead, deceive or rob their customers. SilverSingles simply steal from their consumers. It's utterly useless clunky site –a money-making machine, a tool to drain peoples' bank accounts. They subscribe you for additional features, more advanced messaging options, etc without ever notifying you and they renew it every month. No legal site ever does this! In addition, SilverSingles made their cancellation policy a nightmare – it's a plain rip off. They just ignore all your attempts, inquiries and requests to cancel. It's extremely fraudulent company. Please avoid it!

Their refund policy is a rip off. Get ready to jump through fire if you want to cancel and stop them from taking your money each month without your consent and authorization. Obviously the reason why so many people want to leave is because this site is inefficient, useless and full of fake accounts. SilverSingles didn't work out for me and many other people according to the reviews. I suspect they actually don't aim at providing any dating services. They are focused on overcharging you and keeping you on automatic renewals until you notice it and start struggling to stop them from doing this. They rake in huge profits and fraudulently make money be cheating people.
