Avoid do not use this site it is a complete rip-off !!! I Took out a trial. The site is full of fake profiles and bots so I cancelled my subscription, although the app makes it impossible to delete your account. Despite the above-mentioned, they still charge me £39.99 a month. When I emailed customer support, they refused to refund me despite confirming I have cancelled my subscription. I’ve now had to contact my bank to block future payments and change my bank details

Hello Antoine,
We’re sorry to hear about your experience. Please be assured that all our members are real, though, as on any platform, a few fraudulent profiles can occasionally appear. We rely on our users to report suspicious accounts so we can remove them quickly.
Regarding your subscription, if the cancellation was properly completed, no further charges should occur. To assist you properly and review your account, we kindly ask that you contact our support team directly via our contact form with your account details. This will allow us to verify the situation and ensure any issues are resolved according to our terms and conditions.
Thank you for providing us with your information, we have located your profile.
The reason you have been charged, is because you purchased a renewable Premium Membership which you did not cancel on time. The renewal information was explained to you when you made your original purchase, as well as in your welcome email and in our terms and conditions. We confirm that your Premium Membership is now cancelled and there will be no further renewals.
Please refer to the last communication we have sent to your email address, as it contains more detailed information concerning your personal account.
Best regards,
Lea
Simply the worst website of its kind
Simply the worst website of its kind. Try cancelling your membership, good luck. You have to 'apply' to do so by filling in a lengthy 'cancelation' form - putting in all the information they already have. This is to make you simply give up and remain a customer. No other dating website requires this. It is also not made abundantly clear that a subscription is automatically made to auto-renew. Neither is the fact that you have to 'tell' them you want to cancel by giving them 7 days notice. I've never experienced these kinds of barriers on any other site. No other site makes you fill out a 'cancellation form' in order to leave. Even after being allowed to cancel you need to go back and delete the account, otherwise your profile stays active. It is all geared to make you stay. The fact that this company has a one-star rating across reviews should tell you something. My mistake in not looking at reviews beforehand. Avoid.

Waste of Time and effort
I would advise to keep away. The site has very few online member to contact. Chats and profiles always appear to be "bot farm" generated. Account is virtually impossible to manage, and membership aggressively chased by the organisers, despite membership being paid in advance. An extremely poor money grabbing site.

Avoid, fraud and illegal practices
Took out a one month trial. Site is full of bots and fake accounts. Tried to cancel subscription and delete account in app, app made it impossible to do so. Emailed company to request cancellation and received no reply. Cancelled subscription through PayPal and received a refund. Company is now illegally harassing for debt collection on a subscription which I have not renewed. They should be prosecuted for fraud.

Totally untrustworthy site and company
Totally untrustworthy site and company, I cancelled my subscription a very long time ago way before the renewal as I was prepared to pay that to get no response from the woman I message, I came to the conclusion that all these are just fake profiles. I have recently been contacted by interstate who own c-date saying they want me to pay for my renewal which I am not prepared to pay, I have told them that I cancelled my subscription some time ago and I have been asked to prove it. I am unable to do this as I delete all correspondence from them as I thought I carried the cancellation propose correctly, it was very difficult to cancel and I think they have done this on purpose.

A very unpleasant company
Someone paid a subscription using data hacked from my laptop. I wrote to c-date and effectively they couldn’t have cared less and threatened me with a debt collection order unless I paid up. This is one of the worst companies I have ever come across DO NOT USE C-Date.

C-Date and Interdate S.A. are scammers
C-Date and InterDate S.A are scammers I believe and I think should be reported to Action Fraud and the Police for fraudulent practices. I originally joined months ago and paid 1 month membership at £9.90 before it increases to £39.90 the following month. I cancelled 5 days before the renewal date but now they have been requesting this is paid since I did not cancel 7 days before the renewal date and issuing reminders via a German company now raising the debt to nearly 200 Euros. My credit card company recommended I place a stop on the company which they did. I see others are experiencing the same and it is really disappointing that a website you go to to seek hopefully love instead turns out to be largely full of fake profiles, services run by the company (see their T&Cs) for the benefit of its subscribers (I read this is AI generated bots and profiles) and take your money via these dubious practices and are not fully upfront through their advertising promising this and that when most of it is just not real. This is mis-selling in the eyes of the Financial Conduct Authority and liable for prosecution under UK law. I think they should be investigated by the National Crime Agency.

Hello ARD,
We’re sorry to hear about your experience and understand your frustration. Please allow us to clarify: Premium Memberships are set to renew automatically unless canceled in accordance with our terms, which require cancellation at least 7 days before the renewal date. If cancellation is made later, the renewal is still processed. This information is always presented clearly during sign-up.
Regarding the concerns about profiles, the vast majority of our members are genuine, but as with any large online platform, some fraudulent users may attempt to slip through. We take this very seriously, and we encourage all users to report suspicious profiles so that we can investigate and remove them actively.
Debt collection only occurs when a renewal has been processed but not paid. To review your case properly and assist you directly, we kindly ask you to contact us at cdate-trustpilot@c-date.com.
Kind regards,

Terrible
Had no trouble cancelling - but so what...I had to cancel because the operation is utterly frustrating and fruitless. No answers, left hanging, conversations abandoned when it appeared they were getting going. Very boring and just a waste of time/money. Avoid.

I joined for a month last night. As soon as payment was taken I was then informed they would take £39.90 every month which I certainly did not sign up for. I have followed the cancellation guidelines on your site and cancelled today. I have also stopped any future payments being taken. This is clearly a scam.

Absolutely shocking
Absolutely shocking, my details were used fraudulently to register with this site. I've been hounded by their solicitors based in Frankfurt for money on a membership that I didn't take out. I've explained that to the solicitors "Advokat Radoslav Koychev" with documentation from the police but they still pursue the monies. I've been informed by the detectives looking into the case that many cases are ongoing.
And as you can see from the reply below they have no concept of what is going on. We have reached out Lea to your customer services team to be told they have no information regarding this and to speak directly with the solicitors as it's in their hands now. So I'm not sure why your telling me to go back to customer services when they won't talk to us. I would presume that they C-Date and Advokat Radoslav Koychev solicitors work in this scam together. If you read reviews of the solicitors, they're equally bad reviews.
It will be interesting to see the outcome of the police investigations ☺️ and in relation to the trading standards of C-Date and the aggressive approach of Advokat Radoslav Koychev
Update, Seriously Lea did you not read anything that's been written 🤣🤣 your own reply is contradictory to what you wrote 🤗
my details were used fraudulently. I'm leaving the police to deal with you guys at C-Date and the dodgy solicitors that are connected with
further to note that the act of knowingly pursuing an individual for a debt which is not owed may constitute a criminal offence under Section 40 of the Administration of Justice Act 1970 UK
