It's more addictive than Facebook! At least you know who you're chatting with for real! Oh, yeah - use camshare! Priceless!
And if I like it that means i trust them. Been there for a while and haven't been ripped off. In fact, when I warned them about the girl that seemed suspicious they deleted her profile and banned her from the site. Enough said.
The girls are real yes and you can make arrangements to meet .I been to the Ukraine more than once .I used the site yes the girls are real but they don't right the letters its done by tranlaters who work there I did meet with lady's and the take a picture with you and you pay for the translators time don't pay in cash pay the site .But the catch is the girl don't want to meet you.She is pissed she had to.She hates you .Some can act nice .Before you go they act like they are into you and so in love . Than you get there and they are not the slightest bit interested . It's so obvious they school them on your letters prior to the date.The girls are thair inventory they are told not to get involved with you .The translators is thair to make sure of that and the scam goes on. I even seen one no sooner than are dated ended no sooner do I see her walking down the street had in hand with her real boyfriend. I also got more than friendly with a couple local hookers who filled me in and showed me there profiles on the site .Basically MOBs are hookers with a opption to buy so you'd be far better off just trolling Kiev for hookers because they are the same thing .
First off save your money, this company is run by crooks. The women you are talking to are not what you see in the profiles and this is what happened to me as follows. I purchased credits and was chatting with one woman for awhile there are ways to give email addresses while in chat. We talked outside of the site and she was not the same woman on the profile she apologized to me and told me all about the scam what actually happens to us poor suckers. The profiles that you see are paid models that sold the rights to their photos they are not the women who you are actually talking to. The ones who you are talking to are paid to talk she informed me how they get paid, the more minutes she can get a man to chat the more money she would make. So you're talking to a nice. Beautiful girl think again it could be a man you are talking to, yes she informed me that they hire men to pretend to be women so a lot of you are talking to some guy. This is the best part on how they keep they're employees in line they confiscate passports, drivers licenses so they can't leave they're stuck there like slaves. Think about it it's Russia those clowns can do anything they want there. Anyway it is a total scam save your money and probably some of these woman's lives don't do it...
Just look at those pics! But I have to say - Serbian women are starting to get my attention. They are as gorgeous as Russians, if not even better! I'm glad there's a dating site where I don't have to browse for ages to find decent, attractive girl!
I used this online dating service someyears ago and I did meet wonderful women. However, the long distance relationship thing wasn't really my cup of tea so I called quits. I enjoyed myself though.
What's not to love about this website? So many options, so many beautiful women. What more could you ask for? To be free I guess. But you can't have it all! ;)
The prices are out there for everybody to see. If you don't know how to do the simple math operations try to use the calculator. It's not that difficult to put 2 and 2 together. But don't blame your stupidity on anastasiadate.
If you're after European girls, then this site is ideal. I visit every now and then to have some fun.
I said already somewhere else - i don't mind paying for a quality dating site but only with my consent. So far - so good. I am satisfied. I would give it 5 stars but I'll wait for a bit longer to see if i'll find my match ;)
I'll start this review with my parent who are Russian bit they moved to USA when I was 4 in a search for a better life. And they found it! Then they decided I should find myself a proper Russian lady which was almost impossible. (Never liked American women so their request didn't bother me at all). After many negative experiences i heard about anastasiadate.com. I joined and boy i was thrilled when i saw all those pretty ladies! Many of them I didn't like and many of them I did like. After almost 2 years and lots of talking I have found my girl! We're getting married at the end of this year. Just wanted to share the story for all the guys out there who don't believe ladies are legit! Thanks Anastasia! I'll come back if I get divorced! JK ;)
Girls are smoking hot! All those blond Russian chicks and my lingerie fetish. They go well together. Part I don't like - the price. But I guess it's ok if you know how to watch for your money and not spend it like crazy. Make a budget guys and stick to it. I never had problems. Have been on the site for about 5 months now and I am pretty much satisfied.
I have been a member here for about 3 months now. I signed up after seeing one of their ads somewhere and then visited their facebook page to check them out. So far I'm impressed with the different services they offer, seems like they are more like a social network rather than a dating website. I've used both the chat service and camshare to vet the girls I am interested in. Not ready to settle for one girl just yet but I do have my eye on a special someone :)
I mean, where should i even start. Yes, you have to pay but why do you automatically thinks women are not real?! Of course there gonna be fake profiles now and then! Which dating website doesn't have those? Please let me know and I'll join immediately. Don't fool yourself! I am satisfied with what I have seen but Asian babes are still my number 1 passion.
Hey guys, don't be fooled by all the rejected and offended guys who tought that was a mail ordered bride service because it's not and that is what's bothering them! My roomate wa the website and i know she is real because i lived with her! She was from Russia, studying here. She eventually found a guy outside the website but i know for a fact that she dated a few americans!
I have already reviewed the scams on Amolatina.
Anastasiadate [and several offshoots such as Afriadate and Arabiandate] all operate on the same principle and under the same management. They exist only to fleece innocents.
I have wasted a considerable amount of money but more seriously false hopes and precious time pursuing various profiles. In one case I exchanged 45 letters and became suspicious when I found the same profile on a Facebook related site by using image matching software where the same woman claimed to be 26 instead of 41! In her letters she claimed to want a meeting and i managed to convey my address to her to get off the website yet no letter came. So i stopped responding to her flow of letter as each letter and its reply cost about $15. Finally today i opened the latest letter and responded on chat [NB you are never sure that you are chatting expensively to anything more than a company 'operator' and not with the woman in the profile] only suddenly to be told 'things have changed'. Yeah! Syre within a day of her sending her 52nd letter. I attache her photos
I have tested a number of profiles. They encourage you to write and spend money but more dangerously they encourage you to chat and the clock ticks fast. $100 bucks goes nowhere. After a bit you can tell that the person responding on chat is not the same person as before. Equally can the girls be on line almost 18 hrs a day?
So in short all these sites are scams. Yes, there may be the odd genuine profile, particularly those less endowed with curvaceous figures and stunning looks,
The reviews giving ***** are very transparent. They are all 'plugs' placed by the company.
I got back on this site January 2016 there was an immediate billing issues they furnished me a copy of my history. I protested a large charge to no avail. Them I noticed I had no money on my debit card. On one day alone they said I spent an additional 450.00 (Aprox.)&
They will never have a copy of my debit card again. One other thing many of these girls are just there to make money beware I said beware.

This site is a complete fraud. The girls are paid by the local agencies and just chat and write letters for money. I found out via social media that the girl I was writing to was married. Anastasia refused to refund my money saying that "social media was not evidence" I hired a PI to get evidence of marriage, Anastasia replied "PI reports are not evidence". I obtained a copy of her internal passport and sent it to Anastasia, Anastasia replied by deleting my account, confiscating my remaining credits and ignoring me. This is a criminal organisation pretending to be a dating site
First, if you want a shot at getting one of the women and not losing your money think of a strip joint where all the girls love you. However, you can get lucky. I married a girl from a site and it was wonderful. The stress of the culture change and illness forced her back to her family. It was best for her.Do not discount the culture. Where you can send email ask for a picture of their family with them and their passport. Some countries now have an agreement they can come to you for 90 days without a visa. It is best to have them come to you unless you want to met a lot of women. Do not waste time in chat. If you cannot afford the trip go to your local bar. If you in sales lean to close. This method does work but not if you value people just on appearance. Good luck.
There are a few Eastern European dating sites that are notorious for being a COMPLETE SCAM. Anastasiadating.com (or any with anastasia in its url) and Charmingdate among others. The women on the site are fake and are actually employees of the site. Their job is to have the men pay for every a la carte service such as "translation" of letters. JUST AVOID AND SAVE YOUR MONEY.
Also, avoid the free sites. You get what you pay for. Most of the profiles on the free sites are made by scammers. Stick with the sites that have scam protection and you just pay a small monthly fee to get access to the entire site.
Answer: Sean, I'm very sad to hear that you have been yet another scam victim of AnastasiaDate. They definitely have interesting people on there... but this is what you need to know: 1. You are NOT talking to the girl in the picture. You are talking to a translator (probably a guy) who is talking on behalf of the girl. 2. The translators are being paid to keep you online - on their site - and give you as little information as possible to allow you to get off the site. After a month, if you are still using the site, you are the victim. Read the reviews that are all 1-star of this service, and remember that the 5-star reviews here are almost all paid reviewers for AnastasiaDate.
Answer: The odds are stacked against you on Anastasiadate because it works on a scam-based "business" model. It's a chat-oriented site, it pays comission to local affiliates, so it attracts many scammers, both women and men who want to suck in your hard earned money. The woman (or whoever it is you are chatting with) is paid by the local affiliates. If you really pursue a serious relationship, you should join a meeting-oriented site, i. E. http://j4love.net They also have chat and video chat but they operate on a different model and therefore their girls are more serious about the meeting. When I was in Ukraine I signed up there and met two women. It didn't take me long to find the women who were willing to meet which was a big surprise for me as I got used to all kinds of excuses of Anastasiadate's girls as to why they were not able to meet me next month. Now I understand the real reason.
Answer: As far as I am aware this is a site with women's profiles aimed at attracting men only. From experience I can tell you that most of the profiles either are not who they are posing to be [e.g. Are using model's photos etc] or have not the slightest intention of a hook up. That is to say they will keep you endlessly writing revenue earning messages but if you try to arrange a meeting they will disappear. This is also the case with the sister site Amolatina and LatamDate. Be warned and be prepared to totally waste your money.
Answer: Knil, Good that you are thinking of marriage. Speaking from my own experience with Anastasia Scam, the ladies I met lived in a fantasy world. As long as you shower them with the good stuff, they will play along. But when the music stops, these same ladies will abandon ship. Marriage is a covenant between a man and a woman for better and for worse. The Anastasia Scam ladies forgot the covenant part and the for worse part. So, if I were you, I will NOT even consider Anastasia Date scam. You want a real relationship built on honesty and love. Anastasia Date scam is NOT based on honesty and principle. I say these things to you because I went over there and spent time with the ladies and I observe. You observe and you need to read and interpret body language. A scammer can hide their true intentions but their subconscious actions reveal the true picture! Anways, I wish you all success with your future and your love life. Life is too short to spend it on the wrong person and for the wrong reasons. Regards,
Answer: The girls don't write to men, agencies do, pretending to be the girls, with the girls having nothing to do with the letters at all.
Answer: Spot on, ADate is a con. I wrote to girls over a period of months sorry to say, and sadly the alarm bells never rang when certain girls would be there 24/7 - couldn't answer questions about their professions or explain why they weren't at work, had short term memory loss (couldn't remember anything about me) and whoever I was speaking too had never seen a letter. It is simply organised crime.
Answer: Hello but I am going to repeat the response what Stephen said earlier but I am going to be fair with the statistics: I would say 99.9% of the women on anastasiadate either get paid by an agency to chat with men or they are scammers out to make money and not looking for a real relationship. Any positive reviews for this site are almost certainly generated by the lowlife people who are behind this dodgy dating site. I dated a lady from this scam site for TWO years. Her name is Daria (Member ID: 1701750). She lied and told me that she was registered only with Anastasia Scam but later I found out that she was registered with other agencies. She told me that I was the one for her but I also found out that was her story to the other men she was scamming also from the other agencies. If we all stand united and refrain from using this scam site, Anastasia Scam will be out of business and you all will be a lot richer and happier...
Answer: I don't have the statistics, but I am out of there! I saw real and sincere woman through the cameras, and also met some of them there. They are real (don't think all of them obviously). But I am out. It is very difficult to establish communication with them specially when most of them don't even try to learn English!
Answer: If you still do not believe Julian that this site is a scam this is her profile on VK: http://vk.com/id68827266 Register on this site, send her a massage and you will see whether she would like to keep in touch with you. I bet she wouldn’t.
Answer: Brian, I've seen your ads on here - looked at these reviews occasionally for about 3 years now because I was dating someone (off and on) I met on Anastasia. They must have hired real Americans to write their planted reviews since the last time I was here because many of them actually look like they weren't written by someone who grew up speaking Russian! Anyway, I can't seem to find the job title of these, er... ladies? I wanted to search on google.ru and thought it was "work bride" but that's not it. Could you help me? So what's my opinion of the Anastasia site and the ladies on there? $650 spent. Never met a lady who didn't keep coming back to me no matter what I told them (yes, I tested) of the 2 dozen or so I chatted with - even when confronted with evidence of their fraud. Sent gifts, made phone calls but only 1 actually gave me her VK contact info - all others refused. I contacted her and we talked often in the following 90 days or so until I told her the house I was buying (and she helped me choose) may cost more than expected and delay my visit to meet her - then she either deleted her VK account or blocked me because I couldn't find her on there. She never asked me for anything to this time except to visit her so she could be my bride. About 6 months later she friended me on facebook using a different name and sent me about 5 texts in the next 2 months slowly telling me she was in hospital for weeks and when I showed concern she wouldn't say why she was there, her final message being "Oh it nothing. I better now" then nothing for 18 months. She contacted me again in August and a month later I bought a ticket for Ukraine and booked a room but when I denied her 2 request for money - first for medicine because somehow the coughing she was doing on a Viber phone call turned into a trip to the hospital and the doctor diagnosed it as her spine and she needed money for medicine. Huh!?! Phone calls tapered of but still came. Ditto with texts. 2 weeks later she needed money because she was evicted and needs a place to stay. Told her my money was needed for the visit and I wouldn't send. Now she won't call or answer mine. Texts very sporadic. So I friended her friend's friend's friends on facebook and started finding real Russian and Ukrainians with no touched-up professional photos and not a fraud warning flag has sprung up chatting to them. And the girl I was dating. Well, she spent hours and hours for 2.5 years but never got a penny she asked for - all she got by my best estimates was a birthday gift and whatever she got from the few texts. Letters and calls we made on Anastasia that made a total of around $65 or so it was worth it because I liked to make her squirm when she lied to me. The site's a fraud. Stay away from it. I reported them to BBB and every time they replied I went back to their site to complain because they would remind me of another issue. They wouldn't answer so I'd report them to the BBB for failing to address that issue then their reply brought up more and I'd file another BBB complaint. Was marked as resolved only because I finally gave up - they didn't address the issues brought up in the BBB complaints but instead attacked me and my character. They even said they saw that I was having problems with one of the ladies (damn straight I was - she asked me to send a Valentine gift and they aren't allowed to do that and I found photos on her VK account of her spending Valentine's day with her real, Ukrainian boyfriend) and when I asked why they're reading private correspondences I was told to report the girl for fraud and the following morning I found out my account was closed and they refused to refund my unused credits.
