I could not even think that communicating on BravoDate would be such a fun experience for me. I spend all my weekends here, free evenings and even manage to come in during my lunch break. There are so many interesting interlocutors from different countries.
I paid a lot of to use this Ukrainian dating website. I was conversing with one woman but I tried to end the conversation because I had other personal duties. She kept chatting but wouldn't let me leave. Finally, I stopped chatting and did my personal duties. The next day I tried to find the women on site and she was gone. I contacted Bravo Date Support and filed a complaint. After filing the complaint, the women suddenly appeared on the message list. I reported to Bravo Support but kept getting confusing messages. No real answer. They said my profile was blocked. Messages kept coming. Still waiting for a response on the refund. Sounds like a disappointment or SCAM.
Made contact with girls to help get them or friends out of Ukr. Scammed on credit card, it's also a MONTHLY payment for credits not one off. Girls replies were inane and hey are even in Ukr!
Total scam site AVOID!
Is linked to Cyprus, all photos are faked and replies are just to get you to use credits to buy more.
AVOID AVOID AVOID!
Edit after reply:
Complete rubbish.
The site is a SCAM. All the positive 'reviews' on here are similar wording and clearly done by the site itself.
It's fraudulent, bogus and the girls either don't exist or don't know they're on it. Every message from a girl is a question as the site is desperate to get replies that are paid for.
It's ridiculous that anyone falls for it.
SCAM
Dear Chip,
Hello and thanks for finding time to submit your review.
Kindly note, that our platform is completely legitimate, as we work in concordance with international law.
We carefully approve all the users to be registered on our website. Our users’ profiles are not confirmed unless we verify their ID and background. Our regional partners make sure that there are no bogus profiles, that the user you look at in the profile pictures is the person you are corresponding with (such profiles have a label "Validated member").
It is true that we do not have a monthly subscription. However, you can purchase credits packages as a kind of our website currency in order to spend them on the services. Furthermore, it has no time limit compared to the subscription so you can use it anytime you wish.
If there's anything else that we can help you with, please contact us via [email protected]
Kind regards,
Bravodate Customer support
Joined on a whim, was bored. They tease you one price for credits then almost double for the renewals. Profiles are gorgeous. Too gorgeous. No texture on the skin in pictures. Perfect complexions. No laugh lines on 45yo women.
The locations are dubious if they say United States. Two said they were in my hometown but couldn't answer a simple question about the city. An answer that everyone who had been there knows.
Others in towns that are under siege in the current war. All over the Ukrainian news that there is no power or internet in those towns. But they are chatting up a storm.
Fun to poke around. Only wasted $3.
Dear Mike,
Thank you for your truthful review.
Let me please inform you that we have a fixed price for the credits that differs only from the very first purchase on the website.
Also, please note that members who are supplied by the regional partners support in make-up and hiring a professional photographer look naturally beautiful. And it is great that the members spend a lot of time and effort to receive such incredible photos which they can be proud of on the website.
If you wish us to investigate the situation with the US places knowledge please let us know more details via [email protected]
In addition, I would like to draw your attention to the fact that some of the cities that are cut off electricity in Ukraine may have access to Starlink that was officially approved by Elon Mask to extend the abilities for the Internet in dead-end places in Ukraine.

The site is a complete scam, The site is full of unrainen ladies supposedly on line actually impossible when clearly the country is being blown to $#*! and communication is poor if I was in a war torn country last thing I'd be thinking of is on a dating site also it be some time before anyone can travel there, whf just a scam to rob men of a lot of money,
Dear Patrick,
Thank you for taking the time to leave your feedback!
Due to the Russian invasion of Ukraine, a lot of our members have no choice but to stay home and distract themselves from the surrounding situation. Most of them might experience insomnia and communicate with their friends a huge amount of time.
We want to emphasize that our main purpose as a communication platform is to provide our members with a safe and secure space for communication. Even if the situation seems not suitable for it, we do our best to provide our services in a full amount and our members are still using the website.
As for meetings, we will do our best to supply this option again as soon as possible. We are pretty sure, that it pays to wait for it.
Please feel free to contact us via [email protected] in case you have any questions about the current situation or about our services, we would be glad to assist you!
Best Regards,
Bravodate Customer Support
First thing to know is that you will receive emails and chat requests from many women. None of these are real. They are auto generated by the "system" to lure you into thinking a woman has interest in you thereby coaxing you into responding to her. You have now spent credits on absolutely nothing. Frauduent business model from the beginning. If you chat or email one woman, your inbox will fill rapidly with other woman. All of this is fake. There is nothing real about this site. You don't even know who you're chatting with or writing emails to. You assume it is the woman in the pictures. You have assumed incorrectly. This a scam site. Stay away or learn the truth for yourself.
Dear Kevin,
Thank you for leaving a review!
We completely understand your concerns about ladies' authenticity. When you're communicating online it's hard to be sure who is on the other side of the screen. However, validated members' profiles are verified twice on our website.
Our Regional Partner collects and verifies personal background information, ID, and other documents of the user as well as uploads verification video where the user gives his/her consent to use our Website.
The second step of verification procedure is held by our Moderation Team after the Regional Partner creates a new user’s profile. In order to verify the user’s identity, we ask the following: A valid passport/national ID document; A verification video where the user, holding the ID in hands, declares the current date and confirms that he/she wants to use the service.
Double verification helps us to make sure that all users registered on the Website of their own free will. If we have doubts about the authenticity of documents or the user's consent to be registered on our Website, we notify the Partner. Should the Partner fail to prove that there are no problems with that, we decline registration on the Website.
We try to make sure that all the validated members are interested in communication with other members of the website. All of the users consciously made their decision to verify and register their accounts on the website to communicate with penfriends they find here and move forward beyond the platform if everything is going well.
Moreover, we do not pay the validated members for communication with other users and prohibit our Regional Partners to do so. If we find out that the user is paid by the Partner for communication on his/her behalf, we fine the Partner and immediately delete the user’s profile.
In case of any questions about the website or members there, please feel free to contact us via [email protected]. Our Support team is always ready to assist and answer all questions that you have. We are here 24/7 and looking forward to hearing from you!
Best Regards,
Bravodate Customer Support
I joined this site and found out the extreme cost of being on this site they have hundreds of girls sending you messages every message cost you money every answer cost you money these girls are there to make money for the site. There's a war going on in Ukraine millions of people will leave you but these girls somehow or sitting here on the site 24/7 answering frivolous questions. You can be on this site come back a year later and you'll see the same girls on this site because it's a job. So don't be so desperate for love that you're going to pay a fortune just to talk to girls. Horrible horrible sight horrible. I'm leaving one star the only because there was no zero
Dear John,
Thank you so much for taking the time to share your feedback!
I can see how you feel. To be honest, some of our other members felt that our prices are too high. Indeed there are many websites out there, our communication platform though has a number of advantages, such as strict adherence to the terms of legislation, including the Federal IMBRA law, which guarantees the users' safety from inadequate individuals. In addition to these serious measures, we always provide high-quality support service for our members.
Every query is carefully reviewed by our Moderation, Financial or Technical departments. This means that we have to go to certain expenses to maintain the same level of diligence for all our customers, and thus we set our prices.
However, we want to emphasize that we do not pay the validated members for communication with other users and prohibit our Regional Partners to do so. If we find out that the user is paid by the Partner for communication on his/her behalf, we fine the Partner and immediately delete the user’s profile.
Due to the Russian invasion of Ukraine, a lot of our members have no choice but to stay home and distract themselves from the surrounding situation. Most of them might experience insomnia and communicate with their friends a huge amount of time.
Also, we have many happy stories, but, unfortunately, we can not publish them, because not all users who have found their love on our site give their consent to the publication. Once we collect enough people who agree to publish, we will consider adding this information to our website. Additionally, we want to note, that we are an international communication platform, so some people are here just for chatting, so there is no need to delete your profile even if you are in relationships already.
Please be advised that the exchange of personal information like home address, e-mail, Skype accounts or phone numbers without site Administration approval is strictly forbidden by our Terms of Use, as we have a special procedure for requesting the contact information of other members of the website. Our Support team is always ready to share all the details about this procedure with our members.
Please feel free to contact us back via [email protected] for more information and I hope we can make your experience more pleasant.

Bravodate Customer Support
This site relies heavily on cash purchases to make any contact with potential dates. The women on these sites chat and chat to make money from the site and entice users to continue to buy more and more credits. It's a total scam.

I became a visitor to BravoDate because I was tired of being alone. I wanted to feel needed, and just wanted to talk. There are lots of opportunities to fulfill my desire. There is always someone in the chat room who will answer you and invite you for a personal conversation.
Dear Oleg,
Thanks a lot for submitting your feedback!
Your review is what makes us improve and serve you better.

I sent a girl a gift to get her contact information because 3000 credits must be spent before you can request contact details. The site sent me a pic of the lady holding her flowers, when I contacted the girl and asked her to send me a selfie with the flowers snd the current date written on a piece of paper i got a million excuses on why she couldn't send me the pic.
What happens is they take a pic and the agency doesn't give the girl a gift they just split the profits, and they tell you well the picture is proof, DO NOT send any gifts this site is a SCAM and if u use make sure you also use a VPN because even the girls/men on other side can see ur IP address so use caution!
Dear Tom,
We're truly saddened to hear about your experience.
However, kindly note, that our website is completely legitimate, as we work in accordance with international law.
Also, please be advised, that we cannot force the members to take the kind of photo you requested. It should only be her/his choice.
We would also like to inform you that our user personal data security level is at its highest, besides, our entire system is protected by TLS 1.2 and TLS 1.3 protocols which play an important role as encryption protocols intended to keep data secure when being transferred between you and our service networks.
Another feature that highlights our position among other platforms is that we constantly scan our system algorithms and networks for security measures and liability, also we are using Cloudflare systems which guarantee data transfer security and generate a strong defense against breach attempts.
Considering the above, we can assure you that your IP address surely cannot be visible for other members of the website, as well as you cannot see anyone's IP address from your end.
If you wish us to double-check the situation you mentioned, please contact us via [email protected]
Kind regards,
BravoDate Customer Support
All the profiles are fake, they use stolen Instagram photos. Avoid all mirror sites. It's a complete waste of money
Dear Stalney,
Thank you for sharing your feedback about the website.
We may assure you that we ask our members to complete the verification procedure and confirm their identity. They do so by presenting documents and recording a video. Once the Moderation team receives such information, the member's profile becomes verified, meaning there is a Verified Member sign.
Please note that we do not prohibit our members to create/have accounts on other platforms like Instagram, Facebook etc.
Nevertheless, if you have any doubts regarding any member on the site, please provide us with their profile ID numbers, gathering as many details as you can regarding that issue along with the comments describing the issue you have faced, or any of your concerns regarding those members. Then please send that information with the proofs to [email protected] and we will review the case.
Best Regards,
Support Team Bravodate
They are only busy with duping people and conning them out of their money. The army of professional brides – paid employees - are used for this purpose. No girl wants to talk for free. No girl wants to meet.
Please keep in mind, that Bravodate is the complete opposite of a legit dating service. I wonder if they have at least a dozen of genuine female accounts. I doubt it. The magic ends and the truth is revealed when you get a girl's contact information and you try to get her to use skype or whatsapp. Neither of Bravodate women will do it no matter what.
Dear Charlie,
Every feedback from our users is very important for us.
Your positive experience is truly important for us and we do our best to come up with the most optimal decisions to keep your time on the platform enjoyable.
Please note that we do not pay trusted users for communication on the platform and we prohibit our Affiliate Partners to do so.
If we fine that a member is being paid by an Affiliate for communication on her behalf, we will fine the Affiliate and consider taking immediate actions against the user's account on our site.
We would like to inform you we diligently approve all users for registration on our site. Our trusted user profiles are not approved until we confirm their identifiers and history. Our affiliate partners make sure that there are no fictitious profiles so that the user you are looking at in the profile pictures is the user you are communicating with (such profiles are marked as "Validated Member").
In addition, we try as much as possible to make sure that our trusted users are interested in communicating with other users on the platform. We need to see photo IDs of all our trusted users. If a user makes us suspicious, we can take additional measures to verify the profile, for example by asking him/her to record a video for us to identify him/her. This, of course, makes it much more difficult for unscrupulous people to create fake accounts. Please note that we only allow buying gifts on our site for validated members.
Regarding the issue with your contact exchange - please feel free to contact us via [email protected] and our Team will do their best to help you out. We would like to emphasize that all our members are choosing the most suitable way for communicating for themselves.
Please feel free to reach us at [email protected] any time if any assistance is needed!

After carefully watching for five days the supposed life feeds, I was able to prove that the videos are not live, they are prerecorded and then looped. Also, the ladies have been wearing the same clothes for 5 days, and the rooms, chairs and background remains the same. I filed a formal complaint at the FBI's Internet Fraud Prevention Unit www.ic3.gov

Total scam. They only have bots, fakes and staff members online. Don't touch it with a barge pole and avoid this bull crap.Not worth the money. Don't be lured into this scam
Dear Paul,
We are deeply sorry for the unpleasant experience you had with us.
Please note that we try to provide a trustworthy service, hence it is important for us to provide the highest quality support. Our Support Team has real people, professionals that are ready to resolve any question 24/7.
Also, it should be noted that we check validated members' profiles carefully. Firstly, in order to register, every member takes a short video of herself / himself holding the ID, stating the current date, and confirming his/her consent for the registration out loud. Secondly, we verify if the information provided in the registration video corresponds to his/her profile info. Our moderators check if it is the same person — both at the video and at the profile picture. Thus, we can assure the person you are talking to is the person you see in the profile. Lastly, we verify if the personal documents member attaches are valid.
If any profile does not meet the requirements of the check-up at any of the abovementioned stages, it gets deactivated.
Should you have any additional questions or concerns, please feel free to contact us via [email protected]. We are here to help you out!
Best regards,
BravoDate Support Team
Answer: Bravodate is set up to screw men out of their hard-earned money. I'm pleased to report that I met A LOT of genuine girls on http://J4Dream.com I should have left Bravodate a long time ago. It took me a while to grasp their "business model". I was hoping to meet at least a few real women there – but alas, all of them were employees of the site. All their "women" get a commission. Sometimes you actually chat with the man who uses pictures of a sexy girl.
Answer: Our business has several offices in different countries as well as lots of regional partners around the world. Any other details are commercial information owned by Bravodate and cannot be disclosed by the customer support agents.
