Expensive. Un-charming. Sad.

This is another all too familiar looking "Successful Match" spin-off site that pretends to cater to a underrepresented group, but in fact is just trying to milk the lonely and desperate.

The site is designed to prevent you from posting personal details while maximising the information that they can scrape about you to apply to a target profile - for example their system desperately attempts to verify your annual income as a flag in the back-end profile data!

ALL posts made to the site, through all mechanisms and mediums are MODERATED. They are queued, read and culled if you attempt to post anything that they construe to be intended to allow someone else to contact you off platform. Social media handles, email, chat, all get moderated.

There are NO private conversations, DO NOT share anything about yourself on these sites, it will be added to your saleable advertiser profile.

Moderation of any message posted takes between 2 and 4 days and seems to only happen once in the morning around 9am EST. While your message awaits moderation, the site pretends to you that the message has been posted, however the other person cannot see it.

Once moderated:
Blatant attempts to post contact details will be deleted or the relevant section snipped from the profile/message body. Your message will vanish completely for you as well.

Anything suspicious, containing (even an innocent) web address or that might hint of how to find someone off platform will remain visible to you as the sender (so that you believe that it was sent) however no one else will ever receive it. It simply gets black holed by the moderator while leaving you with a sense that you have been actively messaging people.

If you are dumb enough to give them your credit card number, be aware that while you can message other people, unless they are also premium no one can message you back! (it even says on the upgrade page that you are paying for the privilege of sending, not receiving).

Given the above, do you really think that even as a paying "customer" they aren't incentivised to keep on editing your messages? They most definitely will continue reading them. They'll certainly be incentivised to continue editing your messages during the 3 day refund window.

The entire site exists to feed affiliate referrals into SuccessfulMatch Inc. and allow them to share and harvest your data

You are being used, the asexual community is having its hearts toyed with for greed. DO NOT REGISTER, DO NOT POST PERSONAL INFO, DO NOT USE ANY SUCCESSFULMATCH site as they are all FAKE.

BUYER BEWARE - RIPOFF
I was very specific about what I was looking for and once I paid my fee and got access, no one fell into the age range, educational level or 25 mile mile radius I said I was looking for. I immediately contacted customer service saying I wanted to cancel and get a refund and they essentially told me to change my criteria. This is a ripoff and the poor matches I have seen are over 200 miles away from where I live.

Drastically overpriced for what it is, especially if you live in the UK. Finding someone would be like winning the lottery.
There are very few members tbh and unless you both buy premium, which is ludicrously overpriced for such a small clientele, there is no way of contacting each other whatsoever beyond a smile/like.
I must have sent out 30 emails when I was a member, to most of the UK members and then I started on the US! I got 2 or 3 replies all of which fizzled out despite my best efforts, and the replies seemed very basic.
Compared to a normal dating site this is painfully few. I'm not a bad looking bloke either!
Strangely whenever you register 2-3 likes always seem to appear, but the photos are blurred out and you don't know who they are. The first time I fell for it and joined, and returned the compliments....to no effect. Odd as surely potential partners are so rare that this wouldn't be the case?
Same thing happened 2nd time around but this time I refused to pay out another penny unless I actually get a message, which I very much doubt I will.
My advice? Take your money elsewhere.

this is the best asexual dating site I tried
