The company has garnered a mixed reputation among its users, with notable strengths in the quality of interactions and user experience on the platform. Many customers appreciate the availability of free credits and the effective matchmaking features, which enhance the overall engagement. However, significant concerns arise regarding the pricing structure, as users feel the costs for communication are excessive, particularly for men, creating barriers to forming genuine connections. Additionally, frustrations about limited geographical matches and the inability to exchange personal contact information further detract from user satisfaction, indicating a need for adjustments to improve accessibility and foster deeper relationships.

No sure how you go through so many coins that quickly. The amount of coins is more then I would pay for a dating app. And only talked to one person. Not even sure they are real yet.

It's unfortunate that I have noticed the changes in writers for the site. Conversations go in circles. The writers should go back and look what was said. I am tired of the inconsistency. I had hoped that the women I have been chatting with were real. But they aren't. You have to start over everyday with the stupid questions. Once my credits are gone, I'm done. It's a shame as I thought I connected with Ana A from Rio. To users, just stop, save your money.

Dear Yuliya,
Thanks for finding time to submit this review. At the same time, we’re truly saddened to hear about the inconveniences you went through.

As our website provides every user with a convenient option to communicate in chat or mail sections, you always have the option to discuss everything with the person you are interested in directly to find out if your purposes actually match.
It should be mentioned that we carefully approve trusted users to be registered on the website and they undergo multiple verification checks that confirm their identity before their profiles appear active. Our affiliate partners make sure that there are no bogus profiles and that the user you look at in the profile pictures is the person you are corresponding with.

Dear Melissa,
We’re sorry to hear about your experience. Your feedback helps us to improve our service and it means a lot to us!
Please note that there are various services with different costs, sending chat messages costs 2 credits per minute, however, you are able to send plenty of messages within each minute to convey your thoughts to other users without limitations, thus you are not being charged for each particular message. If you do not find this specific feature suitable for you, it is possible to continue communication in the mail section as an alternative, thus you can compose large letters to communicate with your friends without spending credits per minute. It is true that you need to have enough credits to use some of the services, however, you only pay for the services you are provided with. You get to choose the services that are of your interest and control your spendings on those.
All the users including the validated members have their own purpose to use our website, hence the experience of each particular user is unique, as well as their results from using the platform.
You are not being charged for receiving or reading chat messages, for example, you may send all the messages you wish within each minute, then you may wait for a response without sending more messages and continue communication once you receive a reply. Thus, you may use this feature effectively as sometimes it indeed may take time for other users to write you back.
There are multiple options to reduce your expenses and use the platform in the most efficient way, please contact us via [email protected] and we will be happy to help you with that.

I accidentally clicked on an ad.
I realised almost immediately since I had no picture and my details were very vague and I acted uninterested that when 5 very attractive people started talking to me that they were probably blokes doing a job to keep me engaged. Almost straight away after the website asked me for money, twice.
Avoid at all costs. It's an embarrassment and should be illegal.

The site, while intriguing is good if you're willing to pay a lot for a boost of self-esteem, but in no way should it be used for finding a significant other that one would eventually like to meet.
From my experience, I've come to understand that "trusted users" (the people you're talking to) on LaDate may resort to using bots, literally have to spam you to keep their trusted user status, and may very well be incentivised by other means for pushing costly "features" (ranging from a single image possibly costing $10 to open to much more expensive features).
Upon examining the documentation for becoming a "trusted user" who can use the platform for free, I discovered that these users are likely to receive a lot of spam and may even engage with bots to avoid being demoted. I highly recommend looking into the process of becoming a validated user before investing any money on the site. As of now (4/10/2023), it seems that trusted users must respond to almost every message within 10 minutes and maintain a response rate of over 90%. Additionally, they are required to send icebreakers to others, which might necessitate using bots.
This might explain why some conversations appear coherent while others consist of nonsensical text, highly sexualized content, avoidance of simple questions, and promotion of exclusive posts. It is unclear whether the platform's partners provide any incentives for this behavior, but there could be a "don't ask, don't tell" situation at play. Both partners and possibly the trusted users are highly incentivised to keep the costly content coming (I was even given a few "exclusive posts" in a span of just a few minutes, which were nearly the same content as previous emails and public profile pictures): Keep in mind that the credits required to open a single image can range from $0.25 to $1, depending on the quantity you purchase. If not taken into account, opening a single low-cost image could end up costing you $10 and exclusive posts would cost between $12.50 and $50.
Ultimately, individuals genuinely seeking a relationship are unlikely to behave in such a manner. Using this platform resembles playing Texas Hold'em with a heavily stacked deck. While it might be a good option for casual conversations (provided you're actually communicating with a real person and not a bot), finding an offline relationship may require a significant financial investment, time, and a bit of irritation in being strung along because you're part of a quota. Keep in mind that some users might engage with you only because they are compelled to do so by the platform's rules.
Dear Brian,
We’re really sorry to hear about the occurred situation.

However, we, as a platform, have no influence on the feedback submitted by our clients.

This, of course, makes it much harder for unscrupulous people to create fake accounts.

I want to give it 5 stars but the cost is starting to hurt I have found someone but comments seem to get to be one sentence vs. the length of texts seems to be shorter. I am almost out of extra cash is almost gone every month. I understand that this is a business and they need to profit. But sometimes give out a bonus and credits would be a great gift to a client. Also, someones age shoud appear.

One of the main benefits of our website is that it is not required to pay to become a member and create an account on our platform. You can easily browse profiles, check chat messages and view profile pictures for free. However, in order to view personal photos or chat with our validated members, you will need to purchase credits.
It is true that you need to have enough credits to use some of the services, however, you only pay for the services you are provided with. You get to choose the services that are of your interest and control your spending on those personally.

Women are hired to talk to you. The have pre determined lines and ask the same questions. All this just to keep you interested. The find a way to make you run out of credits. That's their real job. They don't really want to meet anyone in the real world. It's just stupid conversations for lonely people.

Members receive a lot of mail, messages and chat from women all to get the members to buy what are called "credits". I believe the women get some sort of monetary compensation based on the credits members (men) purchase. BTW: Members and women never have the option to meet nor chat offline from the La-Date App. Members are paying for a pen pal only.

Answer: La-date is extreme scam! Not a single genuine profile. All paid workers and hookers. It seems to me that http://J4Dates.com Is a way better option. I have not met any dodgy female user there yet and I have actually gone on a couple of dates with a stunning Ukrainian blonde. I will go with the flow and see how it goes but I really like it so far. As far as I know La-date used to be a normal site years ago but they completely tarnished their name and ruined their reputation because of greed when they started hiring local girls and even boys from Ukraine for chatting. They sit there spouting bulls*t from their keyboards all day and night long, different people can work under the same profile. Steer wide of this money spinning site!
Answer: Can emails or contact information be exchanged? Even the messages are CUTOFF in mid sentences.
Answer: Absolutely, Michael! The live chat feature is great. I've had a few questions in the past, and their representatives were always quick to respond and very friendly. Give it a try!
La-date is an online dating platform designed for those who believe that connection starts with an open heart and a curious mind. Whether you’re just starting out or rediscovering your romantic side, La-date offers a warm, welcoming space for thoughtful, emotionally grounded communication.
