The site has incredibly well-orchestrated photos. The women look great.
However, are they real? And how does the site earn a profit?
In my estimate, the site makes money each time the client talks to the girls. Men pay for every email/chat. The responses are silly and short. So the client pays to respond to them for every exchange. The girls with photos likely get a cut from the site. And the site responses could be written by a computer or by a few operators.
I would really like to see serious testimonials that this site is in any way more than a scam. If it's been out since '93, there should be thousands of happy clients with videos and testimonials. Ops. Those could be faked too, just like the profile photos are.

Dear Jack,

Thank you for your feedback.

I am so sorry to hear you feel about our website that way.

We fight hard against fake profiles and scammers and we’re proud to have very few of them on the site. Please send us the link to a profile you experienced issues with and we’ll personally check the profile again for you.

The women pay the same price as men do - prices are the same for everyone.

Some members may like a very simple and short style of communication, which, actually, could look silly for such an intelligent and smart man as you.

I suggest do not concentrate on people whose messages do not give you satisfaction with communication - just like in real life. However, if you have questions about any member, please tell me, I will help.

As soon as you log on to the site you will get a ton of messages immediately Even if your profile is not finished. And once you finish your profile and want to proceed with meeting a woman they all will send you the same message saying no I would rather talk on here for a few weeks to get to know you. I'm not rich nor my poor but I picked two women and talked with them for two weeks just for the hell of it. Never got a date they were very interested they wanted to know everything about you but they would continue to say well I think that's too early to me let's talk on here for a few more weeks. So yes my opinion dating.com is definitely a scam people that you were talking to are paid to keep you online week after week just to make money you will never meet anybody from dating.com.

Dear Gary,

Thank you for your feedback.

I am sorry to hear you feel about our website that way.

Do you not admit the possibility that people want to talk to you just because you are there? Getting to know a person who you do not see is quite intriguing, don't you think? We think they deserve a chance just for that. To make you feel secure, we have brought in the policies to preserve you from any inappropriate acts aimed at you.

Some people are still a bit old-fashioned for the relationship and need a bit more time, however, if you have questions about any member, I would be happy to help you - just tell me your ID number and the name of the member.

We do have certain policies regarding personal information exchange but they are flexible and you are more than able to get your contacts to your match. Contact us at [email protected] so that we could instruct you how.

FAKE!
January 8, 2021

They just provoke money out from you. Free members, or better say moderators under certain profiles generate chats with you. They promise you real feelings, but do not come off the site. You just chat with them, and leave without the chance of any real relationships. CRUEL game!

After you purchase the app so you can start using it, the plenty of irrelevant messages start bombarding your inbox, which you can't even open or react to unless you pay more, and more and more for credits. Those credits run out very quickly. Now, I unsubscribed from their emails, but the emails are still coming, I wanted to delete personal data, there isn't such a choice. I emailed their support, nobody replies. The point here is you will get bombarded with unreal profile of men that looks like models writing you such messages that prompt you to react and if you want to react you must purchase more credit. Intelligent person very soon recognizes these messages are automated messages. I'm awaiting the reply from support team about money refund and the erasing of the personal data, which hasn't happened yet and I'm aware of the fact that if it's all fraud, they won't refund money.

On our site, we have a very strict security policy, as the security of our members is the top priority. If you think that a profile isn't real, please report it and it will be checked.

I know that some of the people are upset due to the heavy amount being charged by dating.com. It is because of their service charges. The admin is working hard to make the dating.com forum neat and clean from scammer and fake profiles. There were some incident in the past that my girlfriend shared with me.
Since then the security on dating.com is strict and you cannot enter the account if they found that you are using the fake account.

ELABORATED SCAM
December 16, 2020

I see this site is operating for quite a while and still not closed down yet, even though it takes no time to realize is a clear scheme of deceiving people into spending on mostly fake dates, in search for a real partner. Do not waste your money on preset robots. Most "Love seekers" are characters hired to land their image, most probably making money while keeping you spending to read their messages. Basically you are charged for chatting or reading messages mostly from preset autoresponders, while you believe is a potentially genuine date. A crime punished anywhere in the world. Looks like recruited staff and the business is located in the countries from where over 90% of girls and boys pretend to be registered from, like 2-3 ex Soviet countries, 2-3 Americas plus China.

Where do I begin? I agree with everyone who says this site is a scam. For those looking for a partner, please find a more credible site where you can actually meet someone. Dating.com is a site designed to keep paying members PAYING MORE. As a paying member, I eventually noticed that the guys I was talking to all had these things in common, 1. They are using the website for free, 2. They send you a ton of messages, emails, videos and photos, 3. They are always online (which makes you wonder when do they work since they are all doctors and businessmen?) and 4. They claim to like you but they cant get off the site and talk on social media (where you can talk to them at a reasonable cost to you or sometimes for free if you have access to free wifi). They even encourage you to read their emails and view their photos and videos (this is because you pay more to do so). That is when I realized something stinks. I don't usually write reviews even when I am dissatisfied with a service but I felt compelled to write this one and warn all unsuspecting singles with good intentions to avoid this site. They aren't selling you a genuine opportunity to meet someone (which is what a dating site is supposed to do), they're simply taking your money and giving you nothing in return. I am disgusted by this site and all its "free members". It should really be shut down.
