Review of Dating.com customer complaints, rating & accreditation on Better Business Bureau
Is Dating.com registered on BBB?
Dating.com is not registered on BBB. Therefore, this business has no BBB rating and accreditation.
I also went to the trouble to read "positive" reviews about this site and guess what: at least a few of them were identical, although supposedly written by different "satisfied" customers.
By the way, chances are that if anyone has a free membership sponsored by this site (please note the small print under the profiles), they are most likely hired by the website to con people feeling lonely and vulnerable, and extort money by encouraging you to buy additional credits - in order to read their "love letters". Isn't that considered as fraud and illegal?

Those website are run the same way, big scammer. I have friend who have worked for this site for long and she told me the truth. Her real job is translator and this site hire so many translator to talk in the dating site to rob your money. Mostly the woman in the dating site is fake, the site pay the woman to take picture as model then Dating.com use photoshop to edit the face become so beautiful woman picture to get attention. My friend remind me that if the woman in the dating site is really rich, use ur logic, a rich woman will not have time to chatting online, they must be so busy and have no time to chat online. There are still some woman who is real there but it must be so hard to find which woman is real and the woman must be old woman. If u see beautiful woman, it is photoshop. Even if there are few number of real woman over there, their profile must be managed by the local agencies because again and again, rich woman will not have time to chat online. The agency will use their profile to talk with the man and if the agency find a good man for them, they can talk out of the site. But most men are unfit so talking there is the only way for the website to take the money from the man. The woman get paid from the company if she can talk with u more than ten minutes. Maybe she can get more if u send her virtual gift there or send real gift. I extremely recommend to u all who read this to leave this site before u loss ur money and ur mental health. There are two ways to know which woman is real woman. First ways is ask the woman to have videocall and check if the face is same like the picture, it is real woman. This is the only easy way. Second way is u must brainstorm to make easy common word as wechat id which will not be blocked by the system like "big cute panda" and ask them to add ur wechat. If they can not add ur wechat with any reason like "not exist" or "i can not find u" or "i found but it is not u" or "i added u" but u never get invitation, it means u must wake up that the woman is not real and stop talking with her is the best way u must accept the reality that the woman is not real
Tip for consumers: 1. Wake up and forget to find woman in this group of dating website, if they are real, they have no time to chat online with u
2. Ask the woman videocall to make sure her face exactly same with picture, if she dont want videocall with any reason, it is just excuse, leave her directly
3. Make easy common word to be wechat id to tell them like big fish, big bag etc, if they can not add u directly with any reason, whatever the reason is, they are fake
4. Wake up, u can not get easy money by marry rich woman here
5. Dont be greedy, greedy people will just lose money
Incredible that alot of the girls that do contact you supposedly from your area all have names and spelling that certainly are not from my area. I have no problem with that but when everyone seems to have Russian type names but live in your area that gets a bit strange. The women contacting you have lots of awesome photos, almost as if Dating.com have proper portfolios made up. Strangely enough all the women seem to have a very similar style photo portfolio as well in its setup.
In a nut shell when you have many many gorgeous women that are 10 years younger than you falling over themselves to talk to you, all with similar made up professional photo portfolios something starts to smell very quickly.
My experience, while I had man many girls contact me and chat to me, I did not have the feeling of even one of them being genuine.
Don't be fooled by the reviews that are posted near the site either these are done by the same Web designers that do the Dating.com site.
Have a look for entertainment, but don't be a fool and pay any money, it will get you no where.
2. When you tried to delete pics that are wrongly uploaded, its totally not possible. They are all controlled by the admin and no wonder they have all good pics from all over the world to make fake profiles. The terms also mentioning that they can use any info or pix uploaded to the site. Well done!
3. When you tried to delete your account, there is 2 button "continue using or delete profiles". They will ask you to enter password. Then when you click "delete profiles", it is not even functioning. THERE YOU GO! ANOTHER SCAM to record your password if you signed in using email.
4. Some profiles claimed they will come on business trips next weekend, some will say have visited my country and put nice photoshop pix of background. These are all to make you instantly dry up your caching$$$$ to attend to the whatever messages and emails sent from support/adminsthat manage at the backend.
Good job guys. You must be paid well as support/admins/developers of dating.com.
Not even deserve a star
It was my first dating experience after a long time being married. And such a disgusting. Terrible. Immediately after registration I was contacted by a crowd of pretty good looking men, all nonsmoking, not drinking, never been married and without kids. Advocates, doctors, models, businessmen of every kind. Actually, all of them had very - astonishing - poor English, even for my non-native approach, the same lexicon, same syntax, and pretty same manner to set smiles and other icons. Same! I chatted with one businessman from Denmark, with two (advocate and lawyer) from the USA and one worker (cannot remember exactly of his metier) from Venezuela. Absolutely the same dialog manner in every case. Dating.com refused to switch to another messenger or even to email, and all of them had the same behavioral pattern: they send me one message per day at the late evening with a new photo ($10 for reading email and $60 for opening the photo). I stopped the dialogs after blowing up the first $140. Slowly I got the idea:(
Please remember the one: even though the "customer support" claims they are fighting against scams the website is the ONLY instance who gets the profit from all these payments, and users are supposed to pay for each received and sent email, each chat, each received and sent photo - so that the business model' of the source is pretty plausible.
As I decided to delete my profile I couldn't reach out to the support for a while, so I made an expose to the German police (the only option I had as a German citizen) and turned with this info to the support. My profile was deleted within seconds!
Guys, if you are in the USA, please do the same - the source is a cybercrime without any doubts. Even the people from Dating commenting here like Daria and Alexander do not truly exist - and even they write the same style as profiles on Dating.
Totally fake and scam! Be aware!
Best and informative post about insurance. Really very helpful blog post we came to know much information!
- Also, I have seen girl profiles who wrote to me from Prague. These girls were different girls and have different profiles, but their photo's background were same. I mean bed, carpet, sofa, light and other decorations were all same.
- All first messages were excellent and about love. I mean different profiles can't be write same type love messages. It can be automated messaging system.
- Girls seem very beatiful and sexy. Also photos are very professional. It requires professional photographer to take these shoots.
- All foreign girls was writing messages to me in English with excellent grammar. This was impossible...:)
- Some chinese black hair girls profile are showing "blonde" in about me's hair field.
- There are interesting many Chinese women profiles. Their profiles say that Dating.com are very rich and have their own business, they have many villas, more then 500 employees. When I checked a Chinese women's profile, they were business owner and very very rich... :) (Chinalove.com website is working with same software and same database as dating.com)
Website software was good..
Secondly, go look at yourself in the mirror and ask why you need to be on a dating site and why you think you might be successful. Then ask why you were not successful on other dating sites. If you haven't already, use two of the top 10 dating sites along with this one, which is never listed in any top 10 or top 20 listing. On this site your going to get hundreds of letters and chat requests every time you log in. Does that happen to you on any Top 10 site? Are all the people that do respond to your profile on Top 10 sites totally gorgeous? Do they call you honey, my love, sweetie, etc in their first through third message to you? Do they profess their love to you in 2-5 weeks even though you've never met, seen each other on cam or spoken over the phone? This only happens on dating.com and their sister sites. I understand they own a few. Why is this? Is it because suddenly you've become gorgeous yourself? Are you wealthy and they know this? The latter is what they hope for, at least that you have enough money to throw away on this site. You simply can't believe that this site is real, that the love letters are genuine and that you will meet the love of your life. Stick with the Top 10 or stay away from online dating altogether. BTW, the Top 10 aren't so great either but you will get a better dose of reality on those sites.
Many reviewers note that the site is quite expensive and you really don't get much for your money. But nobody says why it's so expensive. Note that they charge you by the minute for chat and the chat time runs while you wait for the other party to translate your message then write you back. You could spend $15 just writing one note and waiting for the response. If you want to send an emoji from the bottom of the chat window, know that they too are costly. Some might cost you $30 each time you send one and some cost upwards of $2,000 - $4,000, depending upon how you buy credits. The more you buy at once the less they are per credit. And if you want to send your special lady one of their gifts, it will cost you about $300 for a $55 gift basket or you can spend much more on a phone or tablet for your special person/fembot. And they charge you 49 credits to deliver! DON'T DO IT! If you try to get your lady or man to chat off site, forget it; they won't do it and your stuck there because they get paid to keep you there.
The women come up with all sorts of reasons why they can't be on cam, can't exchange personal info, etc. But they will tell you hundreds of times that they love you. Don't believe it for one second. I recommend that you don't chat with anyone that refuses to exchange personal e-mail and phone number within one month. If you don't see them on video they are likely fake. If they refuse to go off site after you've spent thousands chatting on site, they confessed their love for you then dump them, they're fake. Do it before you spend $5000 or more. I wish I'd have do so after spending $100 because I suspected this was a scam at that point. But I needed more facts so I continued. Learn from my mistake.
Note that this site pays most women and some men to chat and write to you. Many dating sites do this but not to the extent that dating.com does. They insist that they don't pay the women. But they do pay the agencies that the women belong to and their agencies in turn will compensate certain women to keep men in chat as long as possible and to push you to buy the expensive emoji's for them. Note what they tell you in the "About" section of their help files: Under paragraph 6, "How are free members motivated" it says at bullet statement 5, " Members are not paid to be on our site. It is strictly prohibited for our partners to pay free members to use our site in any way." But then look above to bullet statement 3 where it says the following: "Free members can receive virtual gifts from paid members which they can use to promote their profile or exchange for money." So you see, even their customer service people lie to you. Nobody gets paid using this site they say but then they tell you that in fact they do get paid. Can you imagine how much money one of their paid employees can make getting just a few people a day to chat and click to send empjis? Thousands of dollars a day per person are possible. Proof that this is NOT a dating site. None of those beautiful men or women want to me you or me, they want our money only. Don't allow yourself to be fooled.
Note that this site has an anti scam policy but having a policy means nothing if you don't enforce the policy. Their policy allows for a full refund when people try to get gifts or money from you, which most do. But even when you show them the letters or chat proving that these people professing love to you are trying to get you to send them the outrageously expensive emojis, gifts, etc, they still won't refund you. They say, "we don't see enough evidence" even when there are up to 15 points of proof. So don't be fooled by their empty promises or a refund, it's not going to happen.
This site is for people that have more money than they know what to do with. If all you want to do is spend your money to chat with someone you will never meet, then go ahead and waste your money here. Once you're broke you can join rest of us in a class action lawsuit against these people.
NOTE: I have filed a formal written complaint with the FBI's Internet Crimes Division as I know others have done. I'd like to encourage all of you that know you've been scammed by dating.com to file your own complaint. They aren't going to act for 3-5 complaints. But if everyone that wrote a negative complaint here would file a formal complaint as I've done, the feds will likely act against this company.
I have been on other dating websites, including match.com & okcupid. Dating.com are by far better and cheaper. WHAT IS THE PROBLEM WITH THIS SITE?
1.) site is VERY EXPENSIVE. They use the concept of credits and you have to buy those credits. Once you read first email from the person you're talking to, subsequent emails cost $15.99 EACH. Imagine that ripoff? Imagine paying to communicate and paying per message. This is a money making scheme, they aren't here to help people meet each other. They also use concept of sending each other "gifts". These gifts are ridiculously expensive and can cost over $50 (ridiculous).
2.) THE GUYS SEEM FAKE. Profiles are obviously of MODELS. I was bombarded with many emails as soon as I signed up. I mean many. From profiles of very good looking guys, very obvious to the eye that these are fake. Their messages seemed fake also. They keep on trying to send you a picture or video. Why you may ask. Because to open it you need to pay $15.99. This is why I'm convinced the fake profiles are made by the site itself, otherwise what is the motivation for the "guys" needing the money if it's not going to them.
3.) I COULD NOT LOG IN BACK. I'm sure what my log in details were, but system could not allow me to log in. I tried to reset password, nothing happened, no email to my inbox. I finally emailed them to cancel it, not sure if they will. Also told my bank not to pay anything after I send them the email.
GO TO OTHER DATING SITES. Match.com, okcupid.com and others.
I never take the time to write reviews but I felt this was necessary. I don't think it's right to take people's money to sell fake products. These are fake profiles and will not lead to anything but disappointments. I spent $19.99 on this site expecting to meet a real person but instead, all I received were robots. I will be asking for my money back and disputing it to the end. I believe I am entitled to my money because of their false advertising.
They'll tell you over and over again that you are the most important person in their lives after their family to create a fictitious bond so you keep spending more money. THIS THE MOST CRUEL AND DANGEROUS THING THEY DO FOR MONEY. They don't want to get off the platform to talk to you for free via phone, WhatsApp, or any other free medium. They will tell you (and the other members they are dating) that it is because they have legal restrictions that don't allow them to get off the site for a few months. After a few months, when you press for your situatioship to be defined, they will create stupid arguments, and convince you that you're creating them. Very politely, they start disengaging, and ultimately will tell you the relashionship is not working for them.
Don't trust that you're talking to the one person in the profile picture because, in my experience, I noticed that I was talking to two or three different personalities and English skill levels, under one single profile. They think they can outsmart you, but they make lots of mistakes no thinking that you will catch them. Take notes of the red flags you notice! They work in groups to not develop a bond with you, and you'll see them connected 24/7. Their excuse for being connected all the time is that they are there available just for you. "No, I don't talk with anyone else in this site but you, darling." Right?!
Do an in depth image search and you'll see that many of them work for the same modeling agency in whatever city your person is writing you from. It will be difficult to find their pictures or the name they give you on the internet so,, that's a red flag right there. They are dating other people off the platform. They have a busy love and social life, they just don't publish much of it on social media because they are required to be single to keep working for Dating.com. They are friends among themselves and cover each other's back, AND Dating.com will protect them and ignore your complaints no matter how many you have. They are struggling models trying to make money on the side. While you might be working hard for your money, stressing to pay your rent or cover your children's needs, they (or Dating.com operators) are working from home, chatting with many members. Remember, your money helps them pay for their lifestyle. They travel a lot, and must look good. We are the fools who are regular people who believe their lies and polite, loving words... THEY ARE MASTERS AT MANIPULATION, STORY TELLERS, SALESMEN! MANY OF THEM HAVE BEEN ON DATING.COM FOR A LONG TIME ALREADY. They don't have any consideration for how vulnerable we all are under this pandemic, or your financial problems, or the efforts you are making to be able to go on the site to spend the money talking to them and that's BECAUSE THEY DON'T CARE ABOUT YOU AND THEY ARE NOT INTERESTED IN STABLISHING A RELATIONSHIP WITH YOU. They won't see you again in their lives after they get your money!
Also, Dating.com doesn't do a pre-screening of all members but for the ones that want to work for them (curated). Paying members don't get screened, but you almost never will get a message from a paying member, only curated members will be after you, overwhelming you with text, pictures, and video messages.
They don't pre-screen the pictures that members post so, sometime you'll see very explicit, offensive pictures. Keep an eye and report them.
I feel sorry for some of the models as they might not be able to get as many jobs because of the current pandemic, but I also think that they could get a decent and honest part time job somewhere else instead of helping Dating.com scamm people SO TO ME THEY ARE CRUEL PEOPLE PLAYING WITH OUR FEELINGS. See pictures attached to this review of some of the ones I recognized on Instagram. I discovered that one of them is married and just celebrated his anniversary. The others have girlfriends. Many have bought expensive cars, motorcycles, and even homes. They all are friends among themselves, and are models. The ones in the picture live in Mexico City and many work for two modeling agencies.
ULTIMATELY, if they don't want to talk to you off the platform after a few days of chatting, cut them off, block them. Don't help them aid Dating.com scamm you or other people. IF YOU'RE AN AMERICAN, you can report Dating.com with the FBI at their Internet Crime Complaint Center: ic3.gov In other countries, go to the authorities, go to the press, the TV. LAWS NEED TO CHANGE REGARDING THESE TYPES OF SCAMMING COMPANIES. THIS IS HUMAN CRUELTY!
Again, then back to being again, then I have to tell them that I tried three months couldn't do video chat, then they told me to record a video put my private contact on the piece paper and send to the member, I did but the members couldn't see my contact, also the member sent his contact to me, when I open the photo, the contact area blocked, obviously they don't want me to exchange contact, one person told me to send video but the site blocked my video, so I called back again, then they told me to request present delivery for me which is already tried so many times just have to start over again, I called customer support everyday, so I have to explain what's going everyday, in this two days, they hanged up my phone three time. It's over three months, I contacted customer support over three months too just for exchange contact, but my problem still didn't solve, I didn't get one person's contact, so do you think the site can't solve my problem or they don't want solve my problem? In the past over three months, all I did was over and over contact customer support and explained what's going on over and over. I am not the person like to write reviews on the internet, this is my first time, I want to share my true experiences with everyone. I just want to exchange contact with members, but in this three months they tried everything they could and all kinds of excuses to stop me exchange contact with other members, I am super disappointed about the customer service and the site.
I've received quite a lot of communications from stunning ladies with absolutely incredible figures and long black hair, but there are so many similarities between them that they could all be the same woman or a generated composite. Recently I've begun to received mail from other sites that are identical to dating.com, and when I read the contact information I discover that they all share a single location on Malta.
Save your money. There are better dating sites.
So, naturally, after the cost of paying for the 'privilege' of conversing equals the cost of a round-trip ticket from Bogota to NY and back, you would like to correspond outside of this money pit. You know, like normal people would. Is it easy? Think again. Dating.com make it impossible for two consenting adults to exchange contact information without e-mailing their support service, which will send you a Marriage Broker disclosure form you must fill out, submit, etc... then MAYBE you may get a real person contacting you.
If this site were legitimate, and if the *female members* were legitimate, I would have expected a less punitive form of charge for the privilege of contacting someone. Furthermore, the women would act more interested in corresponding directly with the men. Seriously, if it costs $100 for a conversation with someone and they're still taking it like you're on a free chat messaging service, either they don't care about you being forced to spend your money OR they're getting paid to talk to you. Someone is getting a cut. The women may be real but it's obvious--even with the ones professing their love--that they get paid for keeping you on the hook.
Somewhere out there is a better way of doing this. The right person will come along and build a site which protects a person's privacy, provides a safe means to communicate, but allows an easy way to lift the veil, so to speak, so that consenting adults may speak freely like normal people in real life do. Dating.com is not the model to emulate.
BTW, all the nice reviews about being able to flirt, etc.?... Hello? Aside from the first e-mail sent, it ALL COSTS YOU. Either you're a shill or your wallet's bigger than the rest of us.
P. S/Update: I've heard from several women since regarding Dating.com. They have the same experiences--getting bombarded with icebreakers from so-called regular people with full-on professional portfolios, rich people who use their full names (who in their right mind would use their real names?), etc. Don't fall for it. On the off-chance you do find someone real enough to get to know better, there are ways to get around the filters. Guaranteed workarounds. Through trail-and-error you''ll figure them out. Anyhow, test them on the one(s) you're interested in. If they claim they don't understand what you're trying to say, or that it's "blurry", sorry. They're shills. Cut and run.
Edit (after a week): After that initial day, which was already bad enough, I found out they had charged me for messages I had exchanged with their fake profiles. And they "explained" that I had probably turned on the credit autopurchase by mistake! I had not even been informed chat messages were charged to start with! It is very easy to identify the fake profiles, they all have photoshoot pictures and a long profile description saying how they are looking for a long-term commitment and how they value women not for their looks, but rather for their generosity, spirituality, etc. They send you chat up lines that never start with "hi, how are you?", but things like "let's have a travel addiction together", "Would you find time for me?", and similar things. And they carry on with scam messages that anyone with more than 2 neurons in the brain can identify as such. I was charged over 100 euros for a few messages, I don't think I spent more than 1 hour on the website. Fortunately my credit card company refunded me when I made a complaint. What they commit is a serious crime.
I highly recommend you keep far away from this website they will take your money and they will waste your time with fake profile, I think this is the worst scam in the world, because people who visit these websites looking for better life and love but they cannot find it and they will loose time, energy, money and love
I cancelled my credit card and took a new one so there are not longer able to charge?!
It was interesting because out of sudden I hade a new account with the same nickname from dating.com on the Plattform amolatina.com without signing in?! So they took my information and created a new account on another Plattform. It is the same style, the same people and got many bad reviews in the past. Dating.com is the new created almolatina. And i received the same messages from the same guys like dating.com. That is for sure not legal! I asked them to cancel my account but still did not get any answeres!
P.S. Their emails trying to justify their illegal practices are also very ridiculous.
