I have reported this website to the FBI because it is nothing more than a tool for CRIMINALS to SCAM and prey on victims for cash.

Total rubbish
August 30, 2015

Do not waste your money on this site. Firstly I am a good looking (so I have been told) athletic male and I never got a single response... There were the usual scammer profiles and pictures that looked like they had made their way by being scraped off of Facebook. But like other reviewers have stated if the other person does not have a paid for subscription then they cannot reply. Just gutted I paid for a 6 month subscription and used it for about a month and a half before giving up.

I also sent messages to a lot of women who I would never have been interested in towards the end just to see if ANYONE replied. Not one person replied.

The site is fake and/or simply utter rubbish. Save your hard earned cash and avoid ZOOSK.

PS I used some free sites and have met and chat with plenty of other ladies. You don't need Zoosk or to pay for these sort of sites.

PPS The reviews saying what a great site it is seem to be suspiciously like paid for reviews by the company. Probably just another Ashley Madison in the making with 99% men and 1 % women of which many were fake female profiles.

Bait and switch...
August 27, 2015

You pay $100 to get an account then have to keep buying "coins" for another $100 to actually talk with the potential dates. Pretty tricky slimy deal...

Am I glad I only signed up for one month. This site is awful. You get a notice that someone wants to meet you and you are only given a photo to base your response by. No link to the profile or any other means of gaining access to thier profile. After you pay your membership you find out to have to keep paying more and more ongoing just to get viewed. Matches are with others who live prohibative distances away and no attention at all is given to who might actually be suitable. Lastly it is neccessary to pay one months membership before you can find out that the mechanics of this site make it impossible to work.

It took a little time, but I have met some very nice men here. There was something about Tony's "hello" that made me think he was new to on-line dating. He seemed shy and innocent. After a little chatting we exchanged phone numbers and decided to meet that evening (Wednesday). (he only lived a few miles from me, so that was extra convenient)

After the first meeting I couldn't stop thinking about him. I had plans to be out of town on the weekend so didn't get to see him again til Sunday evening. I was concerned he would meet someone else before I returned, but he later told me he was "gonna wait for me".

Since that evening, we have been inseparable. We can't wait to see each other and spend time together. We are still learning each other, but with openness and honesty on our parts, it's fairly simple. There is no doubt in my mind that his feelings are genuine, as mine are. We are looking forward to the possibilities in our future. Thank you ZOOSK for "hookin' us up"! G'luck to everyone searching for their "other half".

One Last Try
August 24, 2015

I tried out Zoosk from my Facebook profile. I checked out the site for a month or two to see who's online and whatnot. I got a few winks and some messages. I called Zoosk customer service for a discount on the subscription. The rep was kind enough to give me a 30% discount off the 6 month subscription. I started my subscription in June of 2015. I met a lot of wonderful women on here. I met a wonderful woman just after my first month as a subscriber! Folks, all you need is the right one! Thank you Zoosk!

A joke
August 23, 2015

This website is such a joke i have had interest but never no replies. What do you actually get for your money, pictures is all i see.
Well, my 6 months are up. Summary: yes a couple of matches but no response after that, two people responded to a chat one time and no more after that. The most entertainment I received was looking through pictures in the beginning with hope in my eyes. Still have hope, went it is right, it will be right, I can wait. Good luck to all.

Rip off
August 23, 2015

Can you please explain how your site works! I paid a 6 month subscription and have since had 2 -3 people say they would like to chat with me. I email ok but then hear nothing.Do I have to pay again to reply back?, I dont want to pay again everytime i wish to correspond, this is not clear in your information.If the answer to the question is yes then i will cancell my subscription, as a dating site i am not impressed by how they manage the customers who use it.

With the having to pay to do anything. It really weeds out skumbags. I. E. To poor to afford to spend a few bucks because they wouldn't be able to afford their carton of cigs and booze AND children things. And if they are truely on their own not just looking to cheat on their man while hes at work, they probably have lots of bills. In conclusion great for seeing quality people... assuming you don't get lots of free profiles popping up... but not much better than the free dating sites. And not as good as the more expensive sites

The approval format is a sham. I basically uploaded an x rated perfect date, and of course, it was approved. I think this company is linked with many dating sites of members long gone. Look at the profiles, many have a different format. How can a girl that appears about 20 be listed as a 61 year old if any approval system is used? The scam here is a woman contacts you after reading your profile, asks a couple of simple questions and you never here from her again. That's when you have the option of paying for 'coins' to determine if she read your message, or to pay extra to boost your profile. If you notice practically all of your matches are far away. This way it takes some time before you know you've been duped. If some were local you would figure out right away it's odd that you never ran into them over a 30 year period in a town of 600. I wouldn't doubt it a bit if someone in a third world country is being paid a dollar a day to answer questions or send winks for both sexes. This cons are smart enough to understand that many people looking to date may pay to figure out why they are being blown off or not solicited. This is a total waste of money.

Great place to meet and greet! It is entirely up the people who are committed to finding someone! It is possible! Just have to want it bad enough, trust it enough to weed through the phonies and believe in the course!
