Feels like a rip off
June 15, 2022

True I earn good money but it does not mean you have to charge me "almost": $10 for each message, $10 to see her photos, $30 to be her top admirer, $10 to highlight my messages in her message list… this is a rip off in the broad daylight. After sending messages randomly 99 percent of the girls even do not bother to look at your profile let alone replying back… interestingly some message you but when I reply back then they either disappear or go into ghost mode. You have no privacy and they continually edit your profile information for their own benefits to make people ask and message each other as much as possible. For example I put " weekly allowance for the loyal girl" and they removed it because it's against their " guidelines" and people should exchange messages to know about each other's condition which means more benefits for the website…obviously not fair at all in my opinion. Looking for other options

I've gone out on dates and getting some attention but my advice would be just take your time and use common sense when meeting someone for the first time.

Guys abound
May 3, 2022

Hi, my name is Sommer. I'm loving on the Secret Benefits website. I'm getting lots of attention and met a few really good guys. It's kind of shocking that it's completely free... I guess the guys pay, which is how it should be, hahahaha

Talk about nickel and dime
May 24, 2022

Nice looking site. But this whole buying credit thing is such nonsense. How about just a monthly membership? You need credits to do anything. 10 credits to read a message. 20 to send one etc. you could charge 20 a month and they would make a bunch of profits but like every site they want to get as much money as possible. Too bad. I deleted my account. Too much of a hassle. Uh so I guess the website is complaining about this review. Nothing in it is false. They never contacted me

Scam! Don't do it!
May 21, 2022

After reading a previous review I now understand why my SB account is bitcoin only. What a shyster company this is. I've written a bad review elsewhere and they won't take my credit card now.
It's infuriating that you have to spend credits to send or read a message or view photos. Often a woman reaches out to me in a message, I have to pay 10 credits (roughly $10) and when I do, I can read the message and reply, yet 3 of 4, AFTER contacting me, will not then reply. They also freely share their private photos (usually they look just like their public photos) and that also costs 10 credits!
I've complained about their scammish practices, they claim they've given me back credits for these situations, yet I've never, ever seen my account get an actual credit.
Hilariously now that I've complained to them, they remove my edits on my profile. It's what it looks like if people like Donald Trump ran the internet.

The best support for online dating sites
April 13, 2022

Wrote the Secretbenefit support last night with an issue about another member and woke up with an answer back and problem solved. Each interaction I have had with this sites support has been top notch. The only improvement that I would be happy to see is a live chat feature but I understand that requires a lot of 24 hour staff and I'm happy with what I'm paying for as is.

Dating up
March 29, 2022

I highly recommend Secret Benefits to other women looking to date up the ladder. The men I have met from this site all understood how to treat a lady. Trouble is, I'm not sure I can settle on one, lol

My experience using Secretbenefits
March 29, 2022

I've been using dating apps and online classifieds for many years now and have had some great experiences meeting amazing women and also some very horrible/nightmarish experiences.

After using this dating website for the past couple of months, my opinion soley based on how it's worked for me has been great. I'm seeing 2 very beautiful women and currently chatting a couple others. I'm not ready to settle on just one person at the moment and the ladies I'm seeing are ok with that as well.

The site itself works like a charm, no bugs, chat is fast, very responsive site all around. It does take effort on my end as anything does if you want real results. I would say the only issue I have is I would like to see a more comprehensive filter section. Otherwise, I'm very please and would recommend to anyone considering this site.

Shady, better off going to seeking.com
April 12, 2022

This site scams you. Also if you leave a review and they can determine which SB account you have, they'll delete it.

You will encounter numerous SB accounts simultaneously viewing/admiring/requesting+granting gallery access/messaging you but when you spend credits to send them a nice reply to their short and generic message, you never hear back, even if your reply was only a minute after their message. Then these profiles will some days later again request private gallery access and grant access to their private gallery, while still not replying to your messages (because I write again after their gallery request). One person finally wrote back and said they had never sent the original message to me and had not logged into the site for some weeks (their last login info said they'd been visiting the site regularly).

I kept a second blank profile as a test (didn't add a picture, didn't fill out the stats). I even wrote a line about this profile not being in use and don't bother contacting me. It still got people admiring and messaging me, inc several people who'd also admired/messaged my main/complete profile.

When I complained to the site support, saying I felt scammed, they decided the best way to "fix" the problem was to deactivate my account. On the plus side they also refunded all the money I'd wasted which I really appreciated. I got my account back to finalise some unfinished conversations.

Now if I want to buy credits, I cannot. I had credit card payments disabled by Support and I get told I need to contact Support to pay with Bitcoin. I wrote to Support saying their help section still says we can use credit/debit cards. They responded saying they will update the help section but made no effort to allow me to buy credits with Bitcoin. If I create a new account on the same PC - still Bitcoin. If I change my IP address and create a new account on a different device, guess what? I can buy credits with my credit card.

I also noticed a large reduction in the number of people viewing/admiring/messaging/requesting gallery access.

I suspect some profiles are not legitimate as they seem to have the same headlines and I have never found a SD site before where most sugar ladies seem to only want "a helpful mentor" or "weekly dinner dates".

That said, there are a number of real people you will converse with. Just be thoughtful before deciding to buy credits as you'll waste the marjority of them trying to find a legitimate lady.

You're better off going to seeking.com. More cost effective; 1 flat all inclusive monthly fee rather than a fee for every little thing you want to do including blinking and breathing. You'll spend more money on Secret Benefits in 1 to 2 weeks than you would in a month on Seeking.

They want you to spend your coins that's it! Women reach out to you, then you respond never to hear from them again. Please listen, and heed warning. Don't waste your money!

Results with some effort
March 11, 2022

It takes time on all these date apps for it to result in an physical date in real life. Lots like to chat it up, but I found if I focus my attention on one at a time that I really find attractive and play my cards righ with her, I do end up lucking out. Despite my ups and down with luck on SB, it's still providing me with the best real results.

Scam
March 29, 2022

After you buy 50 in credits it takes that option away and forces you to spend 89. Customer service never responds... They have a secret picture stash where you can only put regular pictures which is dumb after you have seen regular pics pay 10 credits to see more regular pics smh... Them they wont let you post any pics unless its just has your in it and don't try to put any nudity in your secret stash they will delete it right away... The reason they don't have a mobile app is so they can't really be easily discredited as a scam

Fake accounts galore
March 10, 2022

There are a few individuals on SB that are genuine and looking for a SD, but the large majority are fake accounts, created by, I presume, the parent company to entice guys to spend their money messaging the non-existent ladies. These messages never get read by anyone. Don't waste your time or money on Secret Benefits.

Bots? Probably a lot.
March 10, 2022

Yeah most definitely bots here, I'm a fan of most Credit systems in general however on this site it seems that you get tons of interest from girls who favorite you, give you access to their private pictures and message you, then seem to ghost you after you unlock the messaging portion. I honestly would not bother. Secret benefits was nice enough to refund me and provide additional credits, I did get marginal success with more credits so there are some real girls out there!

Customer support is good
January 31, 2022

I don't normally expects these kind of date sites to have such good support for its members, but the last 2 interactions via email was super fast and very courteous. Means a bunch to me where I've tried similar dating web sites and responses would often be unfriendly if at all.

Having great luck on Secretbenefits.com
January 28, 2022

I was having trouble getting photos of female profiles to load on a competitor dating site. Gave SB a try out of frustration and it's been going great. Several very attractive women are interested in pursuing a relationship and I've met 2 so far in person and both were the real deal!
