Elite Singles

Just be aware that I joined this site for a full month and they keep sending the same match, and also from all over the world. After I received the cancellation, no refund is being made, and up to today my profile is still up there abusing of my details to be available when I'm not a part of it anymore. No one replied to my inquiry. I have an appointment with my lawyer next week.

Bottom Line: No, I would not recommend this to a friend

They send you profiles of inactive accounts, lots of matches with no photos because the profiles are fake or inactive.

Do NOT give them your money! They keep directing you around to help topics and have nothing for you to reach customer service for your real complaint, only offer generic computer generated crap that doesn't address your issue. You will get all the matches they promise, with no photos and nonactive accounts, and this is how they meet their promise to you. They then suggest you request a photo to an inactive account, and this is how they justify their fees.

Do NOT join; it's a scam!

If you're expecting a positive dating experience, then Elite Singles IS NOT FOR YOU! I paid for the premium service and expected good results. I'm a good-looking man, in my mid 30's, have a great business and present very well. I also completed the full profile with details and had friends look it over to make sure it was a solid profile.

On the positive: I did gain three face to face dates from the site, and all wanted to date. I wasn't attracted to one lady, one has turned out to be a good friend (she has too much baggage to date), and the other lied on her profile and was still MARRIED!

Elite Singles boasts about how many thousands of matches they have, and supposedly they do, BUT

1) the matches don't have pictures (most of them).

2) MANY of the matches appear to be quickly generated with the same type of verbiage. My thought is that the site pays for people to make fake profiles that appear to be real, so much of the "likes," "activities,: and "interests" are the same.

3) Hardly anyone writes back, even the ugly ladies with pictures! I tested this for a week! I wasn't trying to play games with anyone, but wanted to see how many people, regardless of attraction, actually wrote back. HARDLY ANY!

4) Despite what you may enter as a distance to find a partner, it doesn't matter, the site will send you people from all over the country

This is just a waste of time and money! Thanks for reading. Just go out and meet new people at church, group activities, sports, etc. This site is a massive waste of time and energy.

Have you ever had your credit card charged for $130 with an automatic renewal and NOT be able to easily contact the vendor to cancel? Their website is full of "Help" messages and instructions to resolve the issue that you ask, but that's the extent of their site. It gives you "help" with no way of executing the instructions. I have worked with computers and user interfaces and this is the worst. Now I need to devote another few hours to try to break through the barrier and contact them. It is very frustrating!

I have been on the site for about 10 days. The communication back from the women on this site is essentially non-existent. The lack of returned messages suggests to me that many of the profiles are faked. I am not expecting all positive responses, but if this site were truly made up of intelligent and assertive women (the only kind I like), then they would have no trouble saying something as simple as: "no, I’m not interested". Instead one gets the feeling that the communication is with a stone wall. Lastly, I would rate it at 0 (zero) if the rating was available.

In my opinion, the site is illegitimate and to be avoided.

Bottom Line: No, I would not recommend this to a friend

Elite Singles is a sham operation, falsely advertising the number of matches provided and allowing NO free searches of members profiles even with a premium membership.

For example, they promise up to 20 matches a day—I got less than 20 in two weeks. This is false advertising. Match.com, by comparison promises and delivers about 10 or so every day or two.

You are not free to search members profiles, even with premium membership. If you want to date either older or younger partners, forget it. You better put your preferred partner age as your own, or you won't get matched.

Finally, they have virtually no way to contact them in an efficient manner. Apparently, they are run out of Germany with no staff to handle anyone's complain in a timely manner. They just take your money and run.

You are at the whim of their matching program, which is crude and will not select members according to something as simple as an age preference. Their profile if far less useful and detailed than Match.com, for example, where you can search through 1000's of profiles, find the newest, find age or even a particular search word. Nothing like this in Elite Singles, which tries to say they have more degree bearing profiles. Nonsense. There are more in Match.com, because Elite Singles is filled with retirees in their 50's and 60's.

All in all, I lasted about a week before figuring it out. Of course, by then, I had lost all of my investment, because they force you to sign up for months of service paid up front.

It's useless, and it's all about bullying subscribers into paying the automatic renewal, which is hidden in the fine print.

For subscribers in Australia, refuse to pay and quote the Australian Consumer Law to them pointing out this is misleading and deceptive conduct. And don't forget to make a complaint to the Australian Competition and Consumer Commission. The sooner we run these parasitic bags out of Australia, the better!

I've signed up for the Elite Singles website a month ago. I wanted to only try it for a month, but they didn't have that option (red flag!). I completed my profile and adjusted my settings to only get matched with people nearby and of certain criteria. Regardless of that, I get matched with people from all over the place, with no pictures, and wrong criteria.

This website doesn't let you browse either. I think there are very few users as well. By now I've tried every website there is out there, and I can say that you are better off with a free app than this expensive service. Completely not worth your money.

Bottom Line: No, I would not recommend this to a friend

I joined Elite Singles thinking that they were legit. Wrong!

I was barely getting any feedback from the female that I have contacted, and the site has females that they, themselves, created. At least the people that I contacted do not exist. I know that because I spent enough time on the site and was not able to even chat with one member.

Their tactics are to block you from coming back to the site. For instance, when you try to log in, you will not be able to do so. If you try to do a "forget password using the email address you registered with," they will reply stating that they sent you a link to reset your password. But when you log in to your email account, you will never see any such email. This will go on and on until the time of renewal when they will try to bill again for a service that you were not able to use.

STAY AWAY!

After joining this site, I was disappointed with the matches that were selected for me. I contacted customer service and informed them that I was NOT receiving any new matches. I was told that I wasn't logging into the site enough to generate new matches, that was a false answer because I check every morning to see if any NEW matches were being sent.

It's not worth the money. This site is bogus, and I doubt if anyone has had any success meeting people on this site. I wish I had read this review before I spent my money.

I had to give it at least one star for this review to post, but this company really deserves NO STARS! Stay away.

Bottom Line: No, I would not recommend this to a friend

I paid for six months, and I knew after four days it wasn't a fit. They wouldn't refund my money. Watched for a couple more months since they would give me my money back. Same guys I wasn't interested in over and over. Very sad!
