A recent report on the BBC has highlighted deceptive practices of other dating sites.
“Customers of one of Britain’s largest online dating companies have voiced concerns that they may have been lured into paying subscriptions by potential dates who did not exist.
Men who signed up to a number of sites owned by Cupid plc complained to the BBC’s 5 live Investigates programme that flirty messages they received as free members rapidly tailed off when they became paid-up subscribers.
Cupid plc said it did create staff profiles, but only for “the express purpose of monitoring the site for quality assurance and moderation purposes”.
It categorically denied the company sent communications in order to tempt free members to pay subscriptions.” See the full article here.
We would like to let our members know that we never create fake profiles. These are all things that other dates sites go in for to deceive their members that we refuse to. We treat our members the way we would want to be treated ourselves.
