The site is established dating service provider, I’m satisfied and happy for their services. I’m a trouble maker since I was born. While in this site, I feel warm and welcome to contact them for assistance. They spared no effort in assisting me on my quest to meet and the eventually marry a beautiful and hot woman.
This site is legitiamte. I am a member of it, experienced a lot and my little heart had been hurt due to some dishonest ladies. Is it so hard to find a sincere lover online? I do not give up and it is what exactly the site recommend me to do when I come to them for help. I must say that their assistance is prompt and efficient, somehow sweet. Praise for it
I have some problems only the love of a good lady will help me heal from, such as my bad divorce, loss of my children, and lack of success in my life. For 7 years after my divorce I could not consider a relationship with a woman, or trust another woman. Luckily that Irina came to me and helped me. She is like an angel. So soft in mind, gentle, kind and to be honest, I don't think there is any words in this world can tell how perfect and amazing she is. Frankly, there are lots of ups and downs in our relationship. I'm skeptical, which not only does harms to our relationship, but also my angel. In the beginning of our communication, I was not happy for the content of her reply and thought that the site is scam. It's shame to admit that I'm self-centered. Rule No. 1 for online dating, to be brave. Rule No. 2, you are the best, be confident.
When a beautiful and nice Ukraine lady finally confirms me that I am the one who she is looking for in her whole life after our half a year communication online, no word can precisely express my feelings! Just like the sun is shining here today after a year of continuous rain? I have a difficult time with words with my feelings of happiness which I thought I lost as it has been so long! My two grandchildren I have never seen because of the hate from my ex-wife destroyed our relationship! Anyway, life still need to be continued. In the beginning of my communication on this site, I doubt its illegality and sincerity. However, with the advice and assistance from them, the progressing of taking my lady to me starts getting better and better. I met my angel once before via their date service. We are now still using the service for communication as she is not good at English, translation service is necessary for us temporally. Damn high service fee.
Destiny has the capability of bringing people together, no matter where you are. Deep down, I do believe this, especially when I found my beloved lady here. After went through hard times of my life, I mean, unhappy marriage with my ex almost killed me with countless fights and disagreement. I cannot take it anymore. Thanks to the site, which offers me a chance to search for true love again. When I met Svetlana here, I feel so alive. It never occurred to me that on-line relationship turns out to be magical.
I saw a story of a boy who could not hear, then one day the Doctors give the young boy a chance to hear for the first time. When the boy hears music for the very first time in his life his eyes open wide, he cries, so happy to cry. I do how ever have some of the same feelings as that boy had had, when I found my lady. Sleep with happiness and wake up with smiles. I'm sure that she is the one I want in my life, this love is eternal and will never end. Planing to meet her, I will keep you guys posted later.
Love is truly blind. I mean how else would you define meeting someone online, chatting with them, although they are thousands of miles away and you know at the back of your head that there are scammers out there. When I first met my gorgeous girl, I was skeptical with the photo she posted; I thought it was too good to be true. We video chatted for a while and I travelled over to meet her. A big thanks to the site for helping us connect! I will be updating you on where this new road of love will lead!
Ania and I would love to write a testimonial so we can let everyone know how happy we are that we met though this site and to let other serious people know that it's not impossible to find your true love if you really want it. I just kept looking that one day I was going to find my true love and I did with Ania. I know that we both want to express how happy we are and we want to let everyone else now if they want it bad enough and they are serious and they do not play games they will find the love of their life.
The fee there is still high! I get annoyed that I can not leave this site, my girlfriend is there, how can I leave her alone! But, the charge gonna kill me. Due to some personal reasons, I can not fly to Ukriane. Otherwise, I can arrange a date, which is rather cheap.
Not like other sites, this site is honest and legal. In the beginning, the ladies are too model style that I can not believe that they are genuine. Ladies like that do not have boyfriend? I would rather to believe that ONE DIRECTION is the most handsome group. However, it’s shame to admit here that I’m a fool. You may try different ways to confirm you are talking to the lady in profile, like chat with video, sending photos with date and name, etc. Want to share with you guys, hope it help.
Do not use this service. The women are not real. I came to Kiev with much doubt and was affirmed by being stood up with excuses at the last moment. Expensive and not real
Some negative feedback posted in the internet in regards to this site and I doubt the legality of it. However, I love Ukrainian ladies more than I can say. Every man admires physical beauty. Right? I’m a member in other different sites like this charmingdate.com. The ladies are so beauty and sexy that I can not control myself to buy credits for communication. The correspondence is going on, everything so far so good.
Beautiful refined ladies of elegance class, too outstanding that I cannot believe my eyes. This site stood out to me in one very important reason, what a lot of women on the site chose to do for me that speaks volumes about them as a lady and that’s what I’m looking for a true lady.
Ok, I now realized that I have been over to see my Printed Circuit Board shop in Shatin, Hong Kong-- 3 On Yiu Street in the same Delta House. What is funny it is in the same building as Charmingdate. The only difference is the floor of the building. So, these guys are quite small and judging by the building -- they may office out of 4 small rooms. I think there are 2 rooms per suite. I will contact my buddies at Town Tact and they will send me some pictures of their suites. So, what I am telling you -- they figured out a great way to make money on the internet and the slots are always paying.
Guys read most of these reviews -- it is obvious -- what is going on. Why waste your money? There are other ways to meet women and those Ukrainian women (which are quite beautiful in the pics) maybe just average when you meet them live. Plus, it will take them over a year or two to get a visa. Just think about what you are doing and hope you can put your time, energy and money into something that makes a difference in your city or town.
I cannot choose "zero star."
The site is moderately designed. The employees work hard. I appreciate that. It is good for the owner of the company. For customers, it is a bad investment decision, even for those high-risk-taking aggressive investors. After paying for my account and testing the site by interacting with some of the employees, I could conclude this site is illegal.
There are three reasons:
1. The owner is morally bankrupt by deceiving customers.
2. The employees are hopelessly ignorant on what they are doing.
3. There are some women who are actually looking for men, but they are about 1%.
If anyone need proof, contact me please. I will provide them and I also have better sites to recommend to you. I will write other reviews on other dating sites. Tschüss!

I have been a member of this site for a while now, my first thoughts were wow! Never seen so many beautiful girls on 1 site, most of them are like professional models and they probably are. After doing some research I have found out that some are professional models, also the girls are encouraged 2 get photos taken by a professional photographer and they get paid, for sending letters and for receiving letters etc, so basically they put their photos on the site and collect money, what a good job, they don't even have 2 be on the site and still make money by someone else responding to the clients on their behalf and they make you think that you are talking to the girl directly. I never really trusted this site from the beginning cause it didn't seem right but u never know unless you try which I did and as I thought a total waste of time and money, the 1st letter I received sounded very convincing so I replied and waited the next day I received the reply which cost me about 8 dollars to read, I hoped I would get some answers to my questions but it was total rubbish! Nothing at all in the letter related 2 anything that had 2 do with what I wrote so alarm bells started ringing in my head lol ive been SCAMED! Ive received 2 more letters the following day which I didn't bother with since it was going 2 cost me another 16 dollars so as far as Im concerned this site is nothing but a SCAM! I may be wrong but I guess you could always do your own research and find out for your self.
Not bad service. Ladies are sooooo beautiful. Make me excited!)))) Using this site for around four months, so far so good. I will keep you guys posted if there is anything like scam there.
I have been dying since my divorce. I need a good woman to help me survive and heal. I am planning to visit Ukraine for long tour next year. Maybe that will bring relationship success! Service is good but fee is rather high there, I think it's better to take the communication to private.
I find this sites customer care is non-existent and at the best is still poor.
I had a profile on this site then I meet someone so I asked charmingdate to delete the profile feeling the relationship would work but it didn't so contacted charmingdate to see if my old profile was still active and I was told to re sign up so I did.
Now my profile has been suspended due to me having two accounts.
What a bunch of...!
You spend money for everything and its worse than a slot machine.
You get nothing back from this site except hassle and poor help.
Everybody is talking about that how expensive this site is, frankly, I cannot tell you that the fee is low there. But, service not bad. The service quality equals to the fee. If you are not that rich, it's recommended that you fly to Ukraine directly. LOL. Anyway, give it a try is not a bad idea. Lift is boring. Hmm...
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.
