U ask for people in ur area. And u get messages from other states with phony numbers. And then there not even other states all of a sudden u gets call from Ghana. Or some African country. They ask for pics. U ask to call them to verify there real. They never answer. Or they are text messaging services. I mean I thought there b at least 10 % of real women seeking. Men. Like men speaking women. But no. This is the worse one ever. I left other ones before. N had same experience. For our of it. So I see on Facebook out of all places. So say ok. Let's give it one more try. This mate 1 has 100% fake people. They use other people's. Pictures. N when they ask for ur pic. They save n use to scam someone else. Facebook should b ashamed of themselves for letting. These type of co
Pant advertise on there sites. But of cours. It's all about the money. Mark zuckerburg. There is absolutely no more honesty in business. If ur reading this. Don't do it. It's a waste of time n money. This company executives should b put in jail
I sent likes and No answers. Because no one is there. The was that do and see put ther phones up. This site it nothing but A SCAM
No one I messaged through the system answered. The only women I heard from wanted money. The first one said she was a contractor in Nigeria who had all her money stolen and could I please help her, she even sent an image of a drivers license. I reported her to police. They said they had prior reports about that identity being stolen. Next one when she said she was not at home in KS but in Nigeria I told her right a way she was a crook. The last one I believe really was in WY but she wanted an I tune card so she could talk to me.
No good for me. I want my money backPls return my money.im not interested on this dating site.im sorry
You hear a lot about mate1 but not sure its all that unless you live in London or Manchester. I'm in Cork so a bit smaller. Personally ill stick with wejustfit.com.
Messages that don't exist, Women that don't exist. This site is a complete and utter SCAM. I sent them an email and their reply was, "we cannot edit all our members". I tried looking at fifteen profiles but the caption on each was, "They have chosen to delete their profile". ALL FIFTEEN!
UNBELIEVABLE!ยก!
Thought,,,,,, Maybe, This One Is Different.
NOT!
It Cost Me $40 To Find Out The Truth, Thank God I Bought A Card & Not Use My REAL CARD!
FIRST & LAST TIME...
Would have rated them with a zero, BUT IT WASN'T A CHOICE!
What I mean by "salt," is bait because nothing ever happened, at least for me, was a bunch of B. S. "Likes," with no follow through, no calls, and no dates. A good writer can make a person "feel like" they've died and gone to heaven, but that isn't reality if the prose don't come from a "real person." I just can't believe that they do here, as all I've ever experienced is a slew of bogus "like collectors" playing some kind of "hiding behind an e-site," "penpal games." I will never go back on this site again. It was my first and LAST dating site. Hey, I can walk down the street where I live and get my own dates. Bye, bye to Mate 1.
Signed up for the special 13.95 per month for 3 months, they charged me 39.95 right off the bat. Got a few likes 2 times, likes from girls in other states who where putting their phone #'s in their descriptions. Had one picture of a black girl and description said she was white/caucasian.
I went on the site with an open mind and a purse heart, wanting to be able to date and hopefully have a relationship develop because of it. It seemed to me to be more of a "penpal" or "collecting" of "likes" site, as I got zero dates. I felt that I "almost" got one girl to meet with me for coffee, but then that fell through. I just don't believe in these "likes" sincerity. If you like someone's profile and you think that there may be a match between you, then meet that person. You can't find a relationship without meeting them in person. Bad experience, I cancelled my subscription and will never renew it.
I've been on it 60 days sent 200 messages and never receive anything back
I gave it 1 because 0 is not a option it is a waste of time and money
80 percent or more of the profiles are "borrowed" pictures and contain the cell number of someone asking to text... If you try to get a refund because you realize it is a scammer haven you will have to snail mail a request to cancel within 3 days. No option to cancel by internet... dont waste your money
What a waste of time and money. Juvenile. Many responses "rather not say" rare to see a photo. Inappropriate titles and wording. I had no idea there were so many losers looking for love.
EACH PERSON LIVES IN 20 STATES OR MORE,,,,,,,, THIS PERSON IS NOT A LEGITIMATE PERSON ON MATE1,,,,,, PHONEY UPLOAD PHOTOS... STAY AWAY FROM THIS SITE...
Not as bad as most people try to make u believe. I personally prefer Mingle2day but just because there are more members in my area. But mate1 is still much better than the average dating site out there which are almost all full of fakers and scammers.
This is another scam site inasmuch as you will get loads of computer generated messages from in house made profiles. Im able to spot fake pics and profiles. Heres how: professional photos of modelesque women having no background stuff. The profiles are characteristically not completed. I live in a rural state which just does not have the diversity this site depicts. Run a deep image search and what you find should be telling. The object of the site operators is to get your money. Thats just one reason i never pay for adult sites. Another reason is im not very keen on sending financial info to off shore high risk credit processors. The legalese in the terms is one sided in their favor. Your lawyer is of no help since its doubtful theyre admitted to a foreign bar or licensed to practice there. You will undoubtedly get screwed thinking you have stopped the automatic billing or deduction from your card account. By using a debit card this outfit requires a bank connected card. I guess everybody knows all of this so thats all i have to say except finding a willing partner is much easier off line in real life.
I joined with a cheap trial membership just to see if this was real. Well, it's absolutely FAKE. I checked out 39 female profiles and 37 of the 39 profiles I did a deep dive on came back with FAKE photos that were pulled from other sources. Two photos came back as inconclusive. This is so fake I think it's got to be criminal fraud on the part of the company.
Most of the photos appear to be fake.
The sites gets you to sign up by sending emails stating you have messages. When you go to the messages (after paying the fee) the messages are all Mate 1 match notices; no actual; real messages. Feeling very ripped off with this users experience
Warning this is a fake site that takes your money. Non of the profiles on here are real its some phsycho using fake pics and taking money... best to report them to the ftc and bbb... this is huge abuse
I sign-up for the 3 day trial and one of the users sent me a picture of his penis. I cannot believe the site approved the photo! Either they do not have a good review system or they don't care. Either way, if you're looking for a site that takes match making serious, THIS IS NOT IT! Apparently, if you're looking for a site that is more of a hookup or a porno site, then I highly recommend this site. Absolutely disgusting!
