Once you sign up you will find many beautiful women to chat with. No idea if all of them are real or not. You will always find some fake profiles, no big deal, that is part of the game. But I can see that CharmDate can become somehow very expensive. They have a completely different pricing model than Russiangirls4u and I think until you finally meet someone you will have to invest a lot cash. That being said it looks like a site which is not that bad. As I've mentioned before there are many beautiful women to chat with. I guess it is worth a try.
I really liked this site, didn't notice that girls are scam agents who write you fake letters like someone wrote in previous review, some of the letters were very deep, precise in their details and sincere. I could see authencity in them. Now about exchanging contact information, there is no way you can do it in the letters but it's possible to request information from the lady after few months of correspondence with her. It's not cheap but really worth it as there are many quality women on this site. The lady I have been communicating didnt disappear and we continue our communication in private settings. It took me a long time to request her information but I don't regret it. Someone wrote that ladies lose interest when you finally get their contact info, but I just think it can happen to anyone, on any dating site. Not easy to sustain long distance relationship without a real meeting. Its possible to meet real & serious people on this site. Just avoid ladies who show signs of "scam" - ignore your questions and don't discuss possibility of real meeting and communication. Most of the women on this site are very real and they are the ones who are behind the profiles and communicating with you. There are several scammers as well, mostly young girls sending very seductive sex offers in the chat. Many women can speak English without translator and are very educated. If you have doubts in your lady the best way to clear them is to meet her. Ukrainians do not need visa to travel to Europe anymore so it's more easy to organize meeting.
I now chatting with a Charming Russian girl on this website for a few days. And I found many of fun about the chatting and knew more about Russian girls thinking. This is a wonderful communication and I enjoy my time on it.
This site should be the easiest way to get beautiful Russian girls. I have been talking to a Russian girl for a few days. We already met once and we plan to meet again next month. Its a very nice dating experience.
By the time u actually talk to someone u'll be out couple K short in your account. And the cherry on top is a fat $#*! chick that u were talking to all the time.
Hi Happy People:-)
I have a simple question for CD's users. I am aware of this expensive and useless game and I take it just like a game. I bought some credits just for my curiosity. Let's not consider the usual and clear amazing beautiful scammers, who contact you first, are always online, make crazy blablabla about love at the first sight and so on... we all know that:-) but I have chosen two "quiet" profiles and sent my first emails. The first never replied. The second has a "strange" behaviour and I'm not sure about his/her nature:-D found "her" online ready to chat only twice in a month, one by chance during our working pause; the second after a night appointment; "she" takes days and days to reply my letters; in her replies "she" remembers tiny details about my words. Is it possible that true profiles are mixed with the tricky ones? Is there a possibility over a million that I am corresponding with a "real" girl? I start having some doubts... thank you in advance for you opinion;-)
I met a Ukraine girl on Charmingdate two weeks after signing up. We talked on Live Chat and later talked on a love call. Never been easier.
I have been on a site called Victoria's Brides for 5 months now. I have just recently come across CharmDate. Surprisingly several of the ladies there appear in CharmDate some under different names and from Different cities. One lady I shall call Eve I like very much and have enjoyed our time on Victoria's. I have seen her photos she sends from her phone at work and believe her to have honest with most things about her life there. She works 12 hours a day at a restaurant but is magically on CharmDate usually between 11 pm and 7 am Ukraine time.
Even though my profile picture I have set up in CharmDate is the same as well as all other aspects of my profile she doesn't seem to recognize me. Nor do any of the other ladies from Victoria's. Are you speaking to the lady in the profile... not a chance in hell.
If the ladies have been offered something to allow their images to be used by CharmDate or maybe some are even unaware I will not judge them. The operators of CharmDate I do hold in high contempt and they should be prosecuted but good luck with that.
This site may not be 100% fraudulent but I would say about 85 %. But it will cost you a small fortune to find the 15% who are real if any.
A note regarding Eve, since I mentioned her profile on CharmDate I have not heard from her since, nor any of the other ladies I had discovered with false profiles on CharmDate. Maybe hard to face being outed a bit when they all report strong opposition to dishonesty.
Also note that I was married to Russian lady for 10 years and she had no moral compass or remorse for lies, just a way of life there and part of their culture.
Thinking I will try any other country but Russia or the Ukraine, if you can make a buck there its a buck, no matter how it comes to be in your pocket.
You are able to meet intelligent and witty women who are respectful at the same time.If you have a pretty good idea of who you are and what you expect from an online dating service like Charmingdate, you should have few problem, It; s definitely a "user friendly" site
I had been on Charmdate for years and had to go on a number of dates with different women before Luckily I met the one and got married. Maybe it's just the problem of chance, I can't complain.
Was recommended to by one of my buddies. I set up my account which was rather easy to- and after am now happily engaged in a deep conversation with a lady I met there. I highly recommend charmingdate.
Charmdate was recommended to me by one of my friends. It was very easy to set up my account and I was shortly involved in in-depth conversations with a lady I met through Charmdate. I highly recommend Charmdate as Im sure I wouldnt have met her on any other online dating site.
I spent about a year on the site and had to go through a few tossers before I finally meet the love of my life
I found my girlfriend on this site. Overall I don't know what all the hype is about. There are a lot of people here giving the site negative reviews. I've never had issues. They are fairly good with asking you questions on their own initiative, so as to know you more.
I think overall was stoked with the results so far. I went out on a few dates and had a good time hooking up with some cool people. So far can't say that I found the girl of my dreams yet but I am just not really looking for that now anyway. I'm using their app on my cellphone and it's fast and there always fresh faces to rate and people to chat with.
You are able to connect with great, fun people who are generally interesting and respectable. If you know what you are doing and what you are looking for, there will be no problems It is generally a very nice site to use.
I have a friend of a friend that works for the charmdate agency and was told they pay women for there profiles and photos but when you get letters or you go in chat you are not talking to the lady your talking to a man, so keep your money go to Ukraine and ask a women on the street to go for a coffee
I first saw my then future fiance on CharmDate.
I wondered if she was on AnastasiaDate as well. After searching I did find her there. Long story short after 7 months we've decided to leave AnastaiaDate together. She is no longer on any dating site.
But we just discovered that her profile is still being used on CharmDate. She was informed by her agency that every thing was stopped per her request months ago for CharmDate. Never the less, "she" is available for chat 24 hours the past week. I purchased 20 credits and had a chat with my imposter friend. She did not know me. My fiance was watching me online while l had a chat with the imposter. My fiance was there via video chat at her parent's apartment.
I cant speak for every profile on CharmDate. But my Anna's profile is fraud. We contacted CharmDate and they said it is the agency's fault. Still ongoing...
I started looking at this site simply to see non pornographic pictures of pretty girls. Since I have disposable income, I purchased some credits. This really is a waste of your cash. I was contacted by 5 women who I attempted live chat with. One of the responses to my greeting was ")". WTF? Remember you start getting billed as soon as they reply. Another lady I contacted "EMF" emailed me she was sorry she stepped away from her computer. Nice. But I got billed for reading the EMF and the chat request. Remember these were initiated by the ladies not me. And since I am in my 50's I wasn't trying to contact 20 year old girls. They were women in their late 30's to mid 50's. My advice, stay away, or piss your cash done the drain. BTW I contacted their customer service. I am awaiting their reply.
Answer: My verdict after a year of using Charmdate: it's total fraud! I had been in a close contact with many girls for a year until I finally left the site. Now I'm convinced that pretty much all of them were scammers. I had not met any of them! All of them suddenly came up with some kind of excuse in the last minute as to why they couldn't have a real meeting with me. Bullsh*t! It can't be a coincidence when I had 4 dates on http://j4Iove.com After using it for 3 months only. Can you explain the difference? There is just one realistic explanation: Charmdate women were fakes and scammers.
Answer: The question "Can I trust the site" is easy. The answer is no. The real question is "can I trust the girl" and that is harder to answer since there are some real women on the site. Here are some things to consider. Many men have signed up for tours or independent visits to meet a girl only to have the site call at the last moment and tell them they either have found someone else or decided they were not interested. By that time they already have their ticket and "tour" booked and paid for. We don't know if your girl is real or not and you might find yourself a "victim" of their fraud. Before you trust her, you need to be able to separate her from the site and confirm the relationship independent of the agency. There are ways of doing this. Ask her to send pictures that she has posted on her private web sites. Google them and make direct contact. I googled any picture of wome writing to me. Many were on VK.com, the equivalent of facebook. So I set up an account there and contacted the ladies. Most immediately blocked me. One who did not simply told me she would ONLY correspond with me on Charming date. You can also try to find a way to give her your phone number and ask her to call you collect. Most of the time your letters will be edited to prevent such information so you'd have to be creative. Tell her about a 2025 mile trip you took and fill out the rest of the telephone number with number of gas station stops meals eaten, people visited, etc etc. If you really want to you can call her, assuming you are actually talking to her and not a fake agent. Find out where she works. Call there and get her direct number. Try anything. But so long as you are only writing emails, you should assume little correspondence between the profile and the emails you are getting. Odds are if you are corresponding with a real woman, much of your correspondence has been "enhanced" or even written by the agency and you will have to start over getting to know her. Independent studies indicate that you have a higher chance of marrying a translator for the agency than you do of marrying the girl to whom you thought you were writing.
Answer: Do they get paid? Not in a conventional way set up in a western society. Charming Date, gets its women from "affiliates" in Ukraine. These "dating groups" go out and advertise for women, who are seeking western men. The site pays the "affiliates" money for each women's profile they get to use the site. I CANNOT definitely say that the affiliate groups are set up to pay the women. They feed them a lot of bullshit about how easy it is to marry a western man. In Ukraine, the average salary is about 200 bucks a month. A lot of these women love that country, but want a better life. The dating sites know this and use this as their leverage to get women to sign up. They really BELIEVE that someone is going to marry them. That is their dream and the dating sites tell them that the dream will never be realized if they are not exposed to a society (western) that can give them a better life. Not all of those women are scammer's. You have groups within the affiliated dating service group, that is filled with nothing but scammers. I am SURE that the leader of these groups ASK to be paid for each women they get to sign up.If they DO pay a woman, she is not getting hardly anything at all. A Ukrainian woman is not going to get rich advertising herself online at different dating sites. I would say she is lucky if she even gets 10% of a reply. And then that is eaten up by all the photo-shopping that is done to make them look more beautiful. She is stuck, she does not realize how hard it is to get her out of the Ukraine because the dating site will not ever tell her of the VISA restrictions that are attached to Ukrainian citizens when it comes to visiting the West. But the dating site is her only hope., so she stays with it not because of the little she may be getting, but because she believes that she will find a real husband from the west. To the dating sites, she is nothing but the product they advertise to make money off of, and some of the women have gotten hip to that. I have had a couple talk to me seriously about how they felt they were not being informed on how hard it is to marry a western man because of the restrictions on the average Ukrainian's VISA. The dating site WANTS you to fall in love with one, wants you to keep buying credits, spending money, and if you are communicating with a lady from one of the crooked affiliate sites, she will be encouraging you to keep writing, or will try to seduce you with words. A real lady does not do that, even in the sites. If you tell her the site is too high, she wants to know how much you pay. If you tell her you can only write her once a week, she will tell you that she will cherish each letter you send. If you are in a site that has video chat, you can SEE the very woman you are talking too, which Charming Date may have now. A true Ukrainian woman will introduce you to her family through the video chat, show you her brothers and sisters, because Ukrainians are all about family. They are proud of their families and want them to meet you. I have done this several times at another site and even send emails to them without the use of a site, but it costs them a lot of money to respond to you, to have what you send to them interpreted. CharmingDates plays this game two ways, they pimp the woman without her knowing how hard it will be to get this dream, and they scam you thinking you are just going to find a wife here just by a few chats or letters. You might, but you can bet you will be spending a lot of money to send and respond to letters. CharmingDate cheats on their chat feature by NOT giving you the full time you pay for, and they DO have women, who are members of the dating site, answering chat invitations. So, that should tell you something right there. Because there seem to be no restrictions or laws governing these crooked affiliate sites from Ukraine, this will not ever stop. But... there are a few sites out there that you can really meet some decent, nice, attractive and respectful women from Ukraine. After you have been around for awhile, you can smell a scam a mile away. A real Ukrainian woman will SURPRISE you with how friendly she is. She will SHOCK you with how humble she is. All she wants... is for you to be her friend and she HOPES, that it becomes more than that. There are many, many attractive women there. This I learned AFTER my first post here. But because there are so many, the men there take them for granted and will leave them in a minute. They are there, they are in Charming Date, but there is so many frauds and scammers there also, the dating site can easily get out of trouble by saying they have no policies at all governing the affiliates who sell them profiles of women they recruit. The site says "no scams", that is true for any society that has laws, but they do not get these women from a society based on that. So, it is easy for a woman and the company she works for, to scam the site, which I am sure... they know it. Good luck out there! Search the sites hard, there are some Ukrainian women that are really worth your time and attention. I am continuing to find out more and more about Ukraine. It is a very interesting place. It also seems that, the more you seem to want to know about their country, the more honest women are attracted to you. The more intelligent you act towards them, the more credible the women seem to get. It seems like a word goes around the country that says" this guy has a real interest in our country, he is worth being serious with" The truth be told, a lot of dudes, pay that little money to those women, and want nothing but virtual sex from them. That is how I believe the scammers got a foothold in the industry. The cry for immoral (smile). Everything you have read here is based on my personal opinion, on things I have learned while talking and dealing with women from Ukraine. When they were asking me about the unrest in America, about holidays, about how streets look like, you can assume... she is probably on the level. She will NOT EVER ask you for a DIME, nor will she send sob stories about someone in her family being sick. The true Ukrainian woman, for all her humbleness, is still a very PROUD woman. She may not have ANYTHING, but she will not ask anything from you! Personally... I think if you get a chance to get ahold of a true one? That Slavic woman is going to love you to death, no matter WHAT you look like... just have a decent heart and treat her correctly.
Answer: I flew to Kiev and found this site to be much of what others have said. The woman are paid. Local model agencies refer girls to this site to make extra money. One girl told me she made fifty per cent of what she brought in. When I surprised a couple of girls that I was in Kiev vacationing they were all of a sudden leaving Kiev on there own vacation. I found meeting girls in Kiev at bar/restaurant I was much better off. If you notice girls send you the same pictures just to build their tally and so on. If you stick to a letter a week and see where it goes from there it will keep your costs low if you want to keep investigating this site. But my recommendation is travel to Kiev during winter and Oddessa during summer and see what happens.
Answer: It's a fake and scam site.
Answer: Any positive feedback here about Charm Date is a complete lie. Don't believe anything.
Answer: They will not do this. I actually wrote them about a month, maybe two back about policies. This was one of them I wondered about and they said they do not provide that service anymore. They also do not support IMBRA.
Answer: You have to request them to do this. I would delete all your photos, and erase everything you can. Then make the request.
Answer: This site appears to be a complete rip off, far too expensive, gives nothing in return except endless chat.
