Automatic payment trap DO NOT SIGN UP
Signed up for a trial
Asked for card details and took the lowest choice to sign up for, there is no option to not sign up without card details
USER BEEARE THE SUSTEM TAKES YOUR SUBSCRIPTION PLUS EXTRA PAYMENT OF 23 POUND this is for premium subscriptions and automatically signs you up to auto renew for 2 every 2 months
The received another message from Admin in site threatening to fine me 400 pounds per day if I fail to sign up for web cam subscription. They take you card details and also share with network of sites
You Must phone to cancel as the terms and conditions state you have to request deactivation of subscription on profile but when you do request it the site states you have to ring to cancel.
Got an unhelpful customer service person stating g I signed up for it and also by pressing continue on the sign I am automatically agreeing to the extra premium charges he got very irate until I stated under consumer regulations 2014 for EU that they are illegally taking money, terms and conditions are not stated and I am requesting all subscriptions to be cancelled and removed and I do not consent to any future payments and am not liable to any future payments, fine with their company or sister company site or sub sites etc
WARNING DO NOT FALL INTO THE AUTOMATIC SUBSCRIPTION TRAP
DO NOT SIGN
DO NOT CONSENT
DO NOT BE TEMPTED TO SIGN UP FOR TRIAL complete scam

Hey!
We should draw your attention to the fact that we do not need to convince people to join our site in this way. It seems to us you might have encountered people using the site for non-dating purposes, but we can surely tell you it is more an exception and contingency than regularity, and we do apologize for the inconveniences you might have faced. We have our Antiscam department verifying all members who join the site and give every girl who is using the site to meet men a Verified status, but it seems like you have just bumped into someone who hasn't been checked yet.
What is more, if sometimes you happen to get messages from such members, you can use 'Block' and 'Report' buttons located right on their profiles to pass the case for investigation to Antiscam team and immediately restrict them messaging you again.
We recommend that you use our Safe Mode feature that gives you control over which members can contact you. To switch between safe modes press your avatar in the upper-right corner of any site page and choose 'My Settings' from the drop-down menu.
There are three types of Safe Mode:
1) Safe Mode Off – with Safe Mode off, you can be contacted by all members.
2) Safe Mode Basic – with Basic Safe Mode on you can view and contact all members except for those marked as suspicious.
3) Safe Mode Full – with Full Safe Mode active, only Verified Members can contact you.
We also suggest you review our Safe Dating tips section to ensure a safe dating experience for you.
FRAUDSTER alert
On 06.18 I made a trial account for 1 day. I paid the prescribed 0.99$. Within an hour I realized this was not me and decided to cancel my trial membership. Unfortunately that is not the end of the story. It is the beginning of a painful trial I'm undergoing.
Red Alert # 1:I got 16 bot/spam messages.
Red Alert# 2: you cannot cancel your membership on the website. You have to call.
Red Alert # 3: I called and asked for my account to be cancelled on 06.18 (same day). The rep tried to get me onto another account. I said No. Then, she tells me she cannot remove my card details from the account (BIG red alert). She however assured me I will not be charged.
Red Alert # 4: On 06.20, my card calls me and asks if I attempted a charge for 36.66 (this is the exact amount for a monthly membership on the website). I say no, block my card, and immediately call the website's customer service. The rudest customer service rep accuses me of signing up for a different website (Jmec). She claims the charge is legitimate. I tell her I did not sign up for a different website. She said maybe I did not know how to use websites. I explained, in a very calm voice, that I'm a Google employee who coded in the language that these website are written in. I ask if her she can confirm that no other website will try charging me. She says she cannot confirm any such thing until I am charged/a charge is attempted.
UPDATE: I told the rude customer rep to connect me to a manager. She asked me to call back in an hour. When I did, Alex, who made the rude rep seem like an angel, all but swore at me, said she won't connect me to a manager, and when I was talking, HUNG UP on me. Call length: 12 min.
I have recorded all three of my calls with this company in case I need to drag these fraudsters to court. I have all their emails too.
Did you know? This website is part of a syndicate of a staggering 16 dating websites, all of which are fraudsters filled with bots. They will relentlessly try to charge you without your consent. You get rid of your account on one dating site, you will get charged on another. This is Black Mirror on speed.
TL;DR: DO NOT sign up with them. And if you have, cancel your card right away, as I have just done.
It's my only credit card and I'm in the middle of lockdown without a credit card.

Nothing but a huge scam
Nothing but a huge scam, within an hour of signing up, I got a message asking to verify my age from someone claiming to be a site admin, they tried charging my card $4,000. Site is a total scam and is not worth the headache

We do not need to convince people to join our site in this way. Our members are interested in meeting new people. We do not use any automatic systems to generate fake emails or messages and we do not condone the use of false profiles. Our aim is to provide a genuine dating experience. We are interested in spotting fake profiles and taking them off.

Hey, Matt!
We take complaints against our members very seriously. Unfortunately, we do have the occasional member who is insincere and gets through the system. Once recognized we quickly cancel them from our database. However, the problem of female scammers and advertisers on the Internet has become very severe. We are constantly filtering members' IP addresses and mailing processes to settle this issue. Although it is a time-consuming procedure to trace the scammers at the stage of registering with our site due to their use of different tactics. That is why we have recently implemented an identity verification feature on many of our sites in order to prevent scammers from registering on our sites. We are very interested in spotting them and taking them off our database.
Regards
A money grabbing site
1 Create a profile on this site is quick and easy.
2 There is no verification
3 Within the first hour, you will receive a number of likes even before you have had time to complete the profile.
4 The profile content is very restricted thus very little to expand beyond age, location, height, weight. Profile text does not exist.
I removed my profile within the same afternoon as I can see its full of profiles liking you with an objective only for you to make a payment to feed the vanity of who it could be that liked you.
