It can truly happen!
February 20, 2017

Be honest and open. Be yourself. Love steals into your heart in the strangest ways. Give everyone a chance. When you find someone, hang on tight. Do not try to change anyone. Accept them for who they are.

Trying to get response about them charging me way to much. Haven't heard back. Not happy... as I didn't even have all the features offered... something went wrong... very unhappy and asking for money back.

Communication
May 5, 2016

Great website. Im getting oral sex from her write now as I type this. Plus she makes a mean sandwich. My only complaint is that ZOOSK will show you people that have viewed your profile but then won't allow you to view their profile. Either way it worked.

Too many members have visions of wonder and some, if not lots, expect successful relationships to fall on their laps without working on them. You add "Friends First" is very effective. And, should build a "Cancel Date" option to minimize getting stood up if they meet someone.

The app is designed very well, just everything cost so much money and it's like I've wasted my time making a account because I can't even view my messages or message someone, please change the subscription

Terrible site
May 18, 2020

Poorly designed, did not have high expectations to begin with but this was even worse that anticipated. Only got replies from apparent scammers. I would not be back on any dating site but except for the pandemic. Altogether not a pleasant experience.

Great experience!
October 9, 2019

Satisfied with the outcome, pretty good dating site. I think the price is OK and I liked the option of pausing account, very useful when you're trying to focus on one person. As we all know, it takes several attempts to meet someone you are really interested in..

This is an overpriced site. You will sign up and pay, but find a lot of girls on their have not paid, so you cannot communicate with them so easily. You can try and provide email address, but Site Admin will delete it. Anyway I did get a couple of dates. One was from a Greek lady, who could not stop swearing in a conversation. The other was a German, who straight away wanted me to model for her. I have now become great friends with the German girl. Now there are more real people on their rather fake which is good, but be careful of the recurring charges when subscription runs out. I will give 3/5 as I did make a good friend out of it, but if that did not happen, it would have been a 1/5.

I'm very guarded about this site, they don't allow texting or emailing other members, you have to stay boxed in, no independence, its a very closed network, if you try to contact someone else there is a myriad of extra charges, and penalties, they automatically renew the account. I had my bank issued a new debit card so that they cannot auto renew me.

After being a member for only 2 weeks or so, I did meet exactly one quality person whom I dated on and off casually and later that year as a steady for some time on Zoosk. We still see each other casually. They were from another country, well educated, and respectful of me, but had yet to get their green card through their sponsorship job although they expect to do so. However during the times I was open to meeting others when there was no commitment established between us I heard 90% of the time from people from other countries and ethnicities. I did not find this site helpful toward meeting someone who was an American citizen.

Worst dating site ever
September 29, 2014

Worst dating site ever. Really horrible. No way to filter your results (e.g., location) and they don't tell you about the coins until after you've signed up. The quality of people there is really really poor. I tried to cancel and get some money back and they said no. Best I could do was to make sure my membership doesn't renew in 65 days. POF was better than this, and I was with POF YEARS ago. It's probably better now. These zoosk people should be shut down. I just saw a commercial for zoosk and NONE of it was true. STAY AWAY. I wish I had researched the reviews before joining.

100% scam
November 7, 2013

100% scam. Fake profiles, the lot. You contact people that have apparently viewed your profile on numerous occasions to find they have not, or they just do not respond. I was overcharged for my membership as well. Typical of how big business can scam workers and get away with it because litigation is not worth the time or effort

I tried this site for about 2 months. After about 200 emails and many many chats, I finally connected with someone. She is about 90 minutes from me. So far things are looking pretty good. Unfortunately, this site doesn't give the man the tools to shut down all those damn heifers! It should be required that all body shots are required! And the descriptive terms used is BS! Curvy? Why not just use 1/4 ton and 1/2 ton? Then there is the distance with everyone I try to connect with, they were no less than 50 miles away. Even when I set my parameters! If you have time to waste, then this is the place to hang out!

This online dating site is totally over run and hi-jacked by scammers! BEWARE... The few honest users you may stumble upon are few and far between. If you've had any experience with the low life predators out there, spare yourself...

This is a scam site
September 21, 2013

This is a scam site. You're charge an up front fee and then they want "coins" to email of contact other members, ethics is about $2.00 per connection. And they don't deliver emails unless you boost, which again is $2 per time. What a rip! I've written the Colorado AG Office and they tell me I'm not alone in my complaint. Stay away!

It works
April 8, 2018

As a skeptic of these sites i tried it out and as a middle age male that after fourteen years of marriage ended up having to restart his life with two children this was the perfect ice breaker to meet other singles in similar situations. It has lead to meeting a wonderful woman that an unwritten story can now be written. Thank you zoosk

With so many professional people on facebook, it only makes sense to join a dating site associated with them. I have finally met the man of my dreams on zoosk and do not need to look any further... Thanks...

Many scammers
May 2, 2017

This site was good few years ago but recently it is flooded by scammers. If you are seeking for a partner from Eastern Europe, Ukraine or Russia then probability to meet a scammer is higher. I would not recommend it

It is what it is.
February 8, 2016

I'm not really happy with the state of online dating sites these days. I had a successful relationship through one ten years ago. These days, they are too expensive, keep too many profiles of people no longer looking, have a higher rate of scams, and less tools for really meeting successfully.

That being said, Zoosk is one of the better sites today. I was still targeted by a scam, in which we held a normal conversation for about a week before they tried asking for money. So be aware, it happens everywhere. I did meet my current girlfriend on Zoosk, though only the initial hello. She did not buy a subscription because of the cost. There's a lot of room for improvement, but it's still one of the top 3 sites you can use today.

I cannot remove matches in "View" on Zoosk. I follow the directions, but they stay in my match lineup. Zoosk's site is always messed up. I tap a picture and get someone else's profile. It's very difficult to navigate. Watch out, because you could accidently someone you are actually connecting with.
