Singed up at last
December 21, 2017

I am usually shy around girls and my friend recommended that i join this site. Honestly speaking, i didn't think that i stood a chance with any of the beautiful girl here. I was surprised to find that most girls are very warmhearted and ready to mingle. I am already dating one of the girls and then whole experience has been awesome.

Great place to find love
December 7, 2017

This site is so sopecial to me as it is where my lonely heart got cured. When i joined charmdate, i didn't expect to find love. Then i met this russian girl and she completely knocked me off my feet. There is nothing we want more than to meet each other face to face

Hey, guys, are you crasy to spend so much money on this scum? You can find the real females from Russia and Ukraine on the other sites (love.mail.ru, beboo.ru, mamba.ru or others)... As for me, I can see them every day. BUT 99% of the single females both in Russia and Ukraine (in the real life) are poor and ugly. It always amused me, when I found so many women 40+ looking so gorgeous... In the reality all of them are lost shape after 35 and total wrecks after 40.

A few genuine women
October 22, 2017

The number of genuine women on this site are in the minority.

In over two years, and after spending a couple of thousand dollars, I have not succeeded in successfully exchanging details with a single lady. There are ALWAYS problems at the last hurdle. Either the phone doesn't work, the internet is broken, she has to visit her auntie... you name it.

It has its fair share of scam artists. One woman claimed to be a dermotologist. I knew more about the subject than she did. Another claimed to be a cosmetologist and was a bit evasive when I asked her where she worked. When she told me, I checked out the place. They had never heard of her.

Two ladies have refused accept my FB friend requests because they prefer to communicate through the web site where you have to pay for everything.

One more thing. Why DOES it take the agency up to 2 days to 'process' some letters? What exactly are they 'processing'?

So, I have learnt how to sort the chaff from the wheat.

(1) Insist on setting an early date for a meeting. Avoid those who won't commit
(2) Avoid those with erotic/revealing pictures
(3) Avoid those who start to 'darling' you after the first letter
(4) Avoid those who keep changing the subject just to keep you talking
(5) Avoid age inappropriate women
(6) Avoid those who are on-line at all hours of the day

Make no mistake. These women get paid, maybe not DIRECTLY by Charmdate but certainly through the agencies.

Good hunting and mind your back!

This site is simply a fabulous place when it comes to finding a real and good partner. I never knew I could get an excellent woman on this site but for real, I got my heart desire. A woman who knows my feeling at the right time. Her picture was exactly what I saw on her profile, and just with a few chat, we met and everything went smooth. A Very peaceful woman and I love her. Kudos to Charm Date who made it possible.

Yes, this site costs money to communicate with the ladies...what did you expect from a Chinese-run company? This is not like some eHarmony/Plenty of Fish scam, where they lie about using some algorithm to pair you with the perfect match. You ACTUALLY have to get to know your lady, and that takes communication.Once the six-month trial period has ended, you are able to request contact info for your lady (full name, address, phone number, email address) and you can free yourself of the burden of CharmDate's outrageous costs. You don't need to spend $399 for a boatload of credits, unless you plan on emailing several times a week, chatting for several hours at a time, and using the call service.
As for the latter, I would advise against using their system for phone calls, as you can use up your credits very quickly...this is how CharmDate (run by Qpid Dating, a China-based company) really makes their money. Be smart, use your head (not the "other" one!) and you just might find true love...and it won't cost you an arm and a leg!

Firstly, Charm Date is NOT a place for any self respecting man to be looking for love. Simply eighty percent of the women here are not real. If one wants to question this then simply try this...
Beside using your present account. Post a new account under another (New) email address and use a completely new name but not your own, also post the worst photo you can find and wait to see what happens...
Need more proof... Think of it this way. The site is controlled by Bots and works on an algorithm not real people. Also I know from experience you need ten (10) letters not just from you. But both parties, before you can even ask for a direct contact. But even that is not real. The women on this site are NOT able to talk with you in "Real Time" via video chat, in order to convey that they are actually legitimate! TOTAL SCAM STAY AWAY!
I am in British Columbia Canada and I want this site KNOWN as a SCAM SITE

Charmdate is like my first shot at online dating.
As i have no basis for comparison, i still think that i have had a nice time here.
The Russian girls i have spoken with are not as mean as i have anticipated judging from the things i have read in the past.
So, i have nothing to complain about for now.

Deception to heartsche
September 19, 2017

With charmdate you pay to exchange letters but you cannot exchange emails. One lady sent 15 letters and refused to give me her email. The letters were very compelling with a strong, loving future. Another lady I really fell in love with.

Warning and be careful
September 18, 2017

I agree with Wayne G...
Girls flatter you fall in love after a few exchanges of messages that are paying for reading and the answer... not to mention the rates chat, phone... and the strongest is the exchange of address, which of course, after agreement of the person requested is charged 150 USD...
Doubt is allowed for some women actually looking for men for a real relationship...
Great caution so!

September 11, 2017

The few girls I've spoken with have been easy to track down through Instagram or FB. They online models and sell themselves. Several have lived in Russia, although they claim to be Ukrainian. Another (maybe two) had pics with her boyfriend, on a trip they took the week before.

I won't say total scam. However, very chancey, and full of scammers. I spent about 5 letters into one girl. We will see if I get my credits back.

Just my one cent
September 7, 2017

I have been a member of this site for a while now, I dont really spend much time here, so technically, I have had just one date. Our relationship didnt really turn out well though, but I have met someone else already via this platform. Dating could be really tasking but charm date has made it easier for me. You should try it soon.

Worth trying
September 7, 2017

I saw it several time on Facebook before I signing up. Didn't know it's this different from other sites until I joined. Firstly some of the services are not free, I guess it's for better quality. Secondly I do meet cool people here and they are more like looking for something steady, not like hook up you know. It's better for people more senior or mature and who want something real. It's still worth trying.

Simply amazing
September 2, 2017

This is an amazing site, I must say. Very effective to meet the right person or persons you're looking to meet. I recommend charmdate to who that is new to online dating or has tried other sites before so you can see the difference yourself. Good luck to those still looking. Hang on there, you'll find someone.

Yes! It does work
August 30, 2017

I'm glad to say that online dating does work. I find this Charmingdate site better than the most of the popular ones out there. At least for the chances of get a date. So keep on it, create a profile that describes you, be honest and there you go. Hope to give you a perfect guide.

Great site, I LIKE IT
August 29, 2017

I have tried a few other dating sites and Charmdate was the easiest to use and the best for getting to know people.It took me a while to meet someone special, as expected. I went off a few times, dated someone and when it did not work out i came right back on and tried again. Found it a great way to connect with people and i have recommended it as the best online dating sites.
