IDates THE BIGGEST FRAUDULENT COMPANY I HAVE COME ACROSS WITH 100% FAKE PROFILES OF WOMEN! AND ILLEGALLY CHARGING MY CREDIT CARD WITHOUT MY AUTHORISATION!
I CANCELLED MY SERVICES PERMANENTLY under the my ORIGINAL username. IDates CONFIRMED THIS AT 19.18 GMT stating - " By clicking on the following link, your user data and the associated profile will be deleted from our portal in compliance with data protection regulations."
Despite this statement iDates RECREATED A FAKE PROFILE WITHIN MILLISECONDS WITHOUT MY PERMISSION on the website under a new USERNAME with my email AND CONTINUES TO PUSH NOTIFICATIONS TO ME FROM THEIR DATABASE OF FAKE WOMEN PROFILES. I HAVE JUST UNSUBSCRIBED FROM THIS SECOND FAKE PROFILE ILLEGALLY CREATED AS WELL, YET AM STILL RECEIVING EMAILS FROM IDates!
SO MUCH FOR THEIR COMPLIANCE
IDates HAVE ALSO STOLEN MY DETAILS AND CREATED A FAKE PROFILE ON mDATES UNDER another FAKE PROFILE AND USER NAME (WHICH IS PROOF THAT IT'S THEIR SISTER COMPANY) with my email VIOLATING EUROPEAN GDPR REGULATIONS!

THIS PROVES CATEGORICALLY THAT iDates, mDates are A TOTAL FRAUD AND NEED TO BE TAKEN TO COURT.

I have REPORTED THEM BOTH YOU TO THE EUROPEAN INFORMATION COMMISSIONER. AND GOING TO THE PRESS TO HIGHLIGHT THEIR FRAUDULENT PRACTICES.

No one will ever actually meet you! They just want you to chat and spend more money. No one will ever commit to meeting you. The profiles are all fake and run by bots.

Spam city
July 28, 2021

Idates. Looks good. Lets see. Spam after spam. 20 year olds want every man on the site. No matter how old you are and some older women.its expensive to send replies. Ive heard about tinder. I reckon this is a similar site. Thumbs down, if you know what i mean.

It is a money pit
July 20, 2021

Minus 5 stars! I joined http://J4Dating.com - surprisingly, things turned around for me there even though I didn't set out with high expectations but I'm starting to go on real offline dates. It's early days yet, but I already like these results. Idates is nothing like this. Idates is a total bull crap, forgive my language. They are so nefarious in their methods for getting our cash that they stopped accepting real people's profiles – only "professionals" paid for chatting. Idates is not a legit dating site. It is a money pit. I had been endlessly wasting my money there until I opened my eyes, figured out their underhanded sneaky "business model" and stopped using it.

This site is a fake profile hell. There all going to a call Center. They will chat with you but most messages are generic. There are some that monitor from accounts. If you get the robot you get the generic message until the call Center comes online. Then you get a con man. Or con woman at some call Center. Ask them a question about your local city that you can not find on google right away. There stumped every time. Or give you a answer that has nothing to do with your question. Don't fall for it. I had the bank block the payment. It took less then half a hour to figure out this scam. I spent only 25$ to buy enough coins to figure out the scam

Scam site
January 5, 2021

The women are never off-line and you get a response within seconds. They never are away from their screens. Funny thing one woman was located in Braunston, UK. A beautiful village that I know. I asked her to tell me about the village in which she "lived". Nothing came back. I than sent a message asking to talk dirty. I had a response to that in seconds. I then asked again about Braunston. A few minutes later I got the reply directly copied out of Google. Total scam. Don't waste your money like I have.

Don't bother here.
November 13, 2020

Most of the weman on here look great but over half of them don't read your profile, plus not 1 of them have a problem of toping up coins, But to the average man it gets expensive. When you have been chatting for about a month and start to ask about meeting up you get every excuse possible. Stay well clear.

I am male, not bad looking, but I would never expect to receive 15 - 20 interested female contacts per day. I strongly believe that none of the females are genuine. # We are in the middle of the Corona Virus, but I am still receiving requests for a date TONITE? COSTLY TO RESPOND TO MESSAGES & NONE CONSIDERED GENUINE. ## All messages you receive contain simple chat lines that require simple answers that cost you to respond to. One female is listed as being 46, but is pictured next to a cake saying 'HAPPY 50th'.

Total scam!
November 26, 2019

Total scam designed to make you spend coins. All profiles are fake. After registration you will be receiving messages from "interested" members ( fakes) just to keep you responding and wasting money.

This is one of the worst site i have come across to date. Buyer beware! It has no real purpose except to screw the unsuspecting people out of the hard earned money. I took nearly a hour to fill in the profile only to find that nothing is visible to anyone but myself. There's no real support as i have tried to contact them. No way to move past the trained con artists that will reveal nothing about them selves, and never give anything that will allow you to get away from paying. Don't put your credit cards on this site they only keep doubling up on any purchases made. The only way to stop this from happening even after you try to take your profil of is to cancel the card. It is nothing, not even a cyber sex site because they refuse to even talk about that. They don't even read the messages that they are replying to. They always reply day or night as i have taken three days and two nights drinking gallons of coffee to write gibberish to one of the bots and scammers. Five times the replay style changed. Three times they repeated the same message. Hours apart. Im convinced that the pictures must be cut from magazines. Half the so called profiles have more than photo, of three very different people. Strange how a white girl can post a picture of a dark woman right next to a picture of an Asian. Again buyer be aware!
