Horrible experience
January 10, 2019

Terrible service, I mean there is no service at all(((( Troubles with everything(downloading pictures, help desk response etc.) Didn`t have access to their app because they didn`t want to approve it. Posted all my personal information there including professional picture. And then was told they need more information. TERRIBLE! Contacted help desk several times with no success. Finally just quit and deleted my account.

I'll keep it short. Elena's Models website is everything it advertises. Although I met my woman an another site, I set up meetings with some of the women I met on EM and had a great time with them. They are real, sincere, elegant, and they are looking for love. The one's I met were not only gorgeous, they were down to earth yet very elegant and educated women... much better than the women I've met in California.
I recommend EM to anyone ready to get on a plane for Moscow or Kiev!

Elena's Models is fools gold.
There are plenty of good looking women on that site but you won't meet any of them. Just take a look at the testimonials. The women who men actually do meet are very average looking, far from the caliber of beauties advertised on that site. I'm not in any way putting down those women down at all, just an observation.

A lot of those good looking women are scammers or "plants" by Elena. You write to them for a while and then the correspondence bogs down to boring uninteresting details about the weather or some cultural thing that happens to be going on in their country at the time. The correspondence is no longer about a relationship or meeting in person or anything like that. So what happens is that I stop writing and they stop writing. Elena got her money and I got nothing. The old saying if it's too good to be true it probably is, definitely applies to Elena's Models.

There must be lots of guys wondering if this is real. The site is 100 percent legitimate in my experience. I met two lovely Russian girls. Met up with them at different locations and had a great time. They were as real as any other girls and were looking for relationships. Unfortunately, it didn't work out for me as distance did provento be too difficult. The fact that the girls are not easy makes it real.

Soon after you sign up for free membership at elenas you will be contacted by several attractive women. Then after paying for a membership they disappear. Obviously fakes set up by the site. Just read the profiles with some scrutiny and it will be obvious to you. Pretty women with 1-3 sentences in their personal message. These profiles are created by administration. Basically, bimbos writing fake profiles as fast as they can. You will also be contacted by real women that are the same type you can date in your own country. In other words don't go to this site with the expectation of getting something that you can't get at home. It won't happen. You will meet a few real women but i cannot recommend a site that is so dishonest. I mean really. They are very clever because they promote themselves as the only honest east west dating agency. But they can lie as good as any politician. And my heart goes out to the few real Eastern women on the site. It is not fair to them either.

I have been a member of Elena's Models for two months and after reading some of these negative reviews I cannot find in anyway anything genuine to the wild accusations they make. I actually double paid my membership by accident. I sent them a mail straight away and the lady at customer support responded same day and sent me a copy of the refund request for my credit card. Also my card was billed by "clickbank not Elena's Models so I also sent a support request to them also and they confirmed they have processed my refund.
The site works very well accept on my IPAD. However I have meet someone on the site and hopefully will move on soon with a trip to Russian soon.
I have no doubt Elena's Models is the real deal

Elena's overrated
October 22, 2015

Elena's is really not a good site for several reasons. Firstly the Ukraine girls listed are mostly fakes and you need to stay clear of them. Might have pretty and sexy pics but they are not real and you will just waste time and then money if you're not careful. Suggest you install an email tracing software and you will soon see the girls scamming you. For the Russians on the site, very average and little English even though they state they speak English. There's some pretty pics but the majority are old profiles and not contactable.

I have no doubt that the site is legitimate. I have met many interesting and beautiful women. There are also a lot of ladies on the site who are more interested in money than in love and romance. As a general rule of thumb, go for those with the current format of the membership number, 214, and give those that have earlier numbers a miss. They have been on the site a long time, and are either very picky or interested in one thing! And its not a long term relationship!

However, I am still here and I am ever hopeful! Chris O

Like most feel, at one time it was a respectable site. Not any more. The new site is absolutely terrible. Using my Mac, I cannot send emails vis their website. I wrote to the Help Desk and they said they would fix the problem. Nothing. Have also been the target of at least two scammers. I've had several women immediately send me their private email addresses, get one email and then they disappear. Not sure if it's a way of them collecting email addresses or not. Sure seems like it. Overall, I would not recommend the site. Not any more. Just another lousy site in my book. There are also a lot less women on the site now than say, five or six years ago.

Became a gold member and contacted 1 beautiful girl.
The girl did respond to my Expression of Interest, but never replied to any of my messages, although I could see she was online several times...

Did get some letters from some really ugly woman though.

Conclusion: The ugly ones are real, the good looking are fake.

I have no problems with who is on the site - they seem genuine enough and there is a real opportunity to be in touch with some nice people but the functionality of it is terrible particularly since it has been revamped. Email does not work, no response to complaints - as the whole idea is to communicate with people what is the point of a site where the communication facilities are so unreliable. Very disappointing.

Gold diggers galore
July 23, 2016

The women on Elenas models are all too real, and this is a big problem. Trust me, I married a girl from Kaliningrad, Russia, that I met on Elenasmodels. Shortly after the marriage she started to abuse me and use me as a 'walking wallet'. What ever I did was not particularly appreciated and my ego came under sustained attack. She showed less and less concern about my welfare and what I needed from the relationship. She basically stole my dignity (my family came interstate to attend the wedding) and my money (she's driving a car that I'm still paying off). We're now separated. She was a truly manipulative individual and very charming and skillful one at that. Absolutely terrible decision marrying this girl. This person has ruined my life for the time being. She is trying to stay in Australia under an 'abusive husband' rule which is an absolute lie, but just shows the depths to which she has gone to stay in Australia. Watch out guys!

Great Dating Site.
August 7, 2018

I have been on Elenas Models since June 2017... Lots of wonderful women on the site... You do have to pick and choose. And kinda communicate with them, to get a good vibe. Most women want to communicate by Skype only :) I am currently communicating with a wonderful woman from Russia for the last 10 months by Skype everyday. Going to visit her in October and I know she is my future wife :) :)

I didn't have any problems at all with Elena's models. The support was good and any problems I had were ironed out. I have made romantic friendships with two women on it and have spoken over the phone to at least one other lady. The women seem genuine and nice. The people who disparage the site either have some other sinister agenda or wouldn't get a date anywhere.

If you want a real rubbish site full of scammers or manufactured profiles try ‘Russia cupid' or ‘East Loves West‘. I found out the hard way after I wasted my hard earned cash!

I paid in advance for several months and when I complained to the help desk about them losing my correspondence and the site being down much of the time, this administrator Darrin just cancelled me without a refund, thus stealing my membership money. Previously I was defrauded by two women I met off the site. Dont waste your time and money

We believe this message is false and misleading. There is no situation where a members communication have been lost in the system. If there was data corruptin at anytime we operate the normal process of daily data backups which mean it would be avialible.
Also at no time has Elenas Models not refunded if this was the sitation.
We openly suggest you provide us your member ID number and we are happy to post the truth on any such claim such as your.
We have operated for over 17 years and if we did not provide a ethical and honest business it is unlikely we would be as successful as we have been.

Great Honest Site
September 27, 2014

This is a very good site! I have been with Elena's Models for almost 2 years now. I have met many wonderful women. And I have visited them in person. These women are real and they are looking for nice romantic gentleman that they are attracted to. Okay there are women who only want to scam you but if you are wise you will see through them and move on with your search. This review is much different than the first review I did on this site. That is because it is better.

Elena's Model, the site on its own is genuine and very authentic. The problem is on the women in the site. These women do not pay any money to subscribe in the site as it is free for only women. Also, these women have their personal boyfriends back home. For these reasons, they do not take the dating so serious, rather, most of them take it as playing a game to while away time. Make no mistake that Russian women are crazy about love and marriage. They want to see how super comfortable an American man is to shower them with goodies and green card. The women in this site are so proud, and do not waste time to get upset. They are typically the German and Russian empty ego.

I am least judgmental and an open minded person. Am from all over and from USA. Most profiles on this elenas models website are fake and it's just waste of money. I travelled in Russia and Ukraine. Most of the girls I met casually and on tinder suggested me the same. It's impossible to believe these online fake profiles as they are paid to be on there! Good luck but please don't waste your hard earned money on these websites!

Currently on Elena's Models there are 10,000 active womens profiles. Weekly we provide, in particular men form the USA IMBRA letters for applications to assist with fiancee visas. We suggest you consider reading Elena VIP coaching program to assist with the nuances of dating eastern European women. We agree a casual hook up site like Tinder would not have women from those countries looking for serious relationships.

Total scam
March 6, 2018

I was a member of this site not for long and I delete myself because man there was weird and all what was interesting for them is my phone number. After I deleted I find out site was chatting with a lot of men against me! They took my phone number which should be not visible and one man start to call me and ask for next time I turn on my camera because he didn't see me but I never ever use chat room and never talk with camera there, I wrote couple letters and after all man who contact me asked for my phone and skype in first letter ( and it is forbidden to share personal applications there) I delete my profile so it was not possible I chat with man in that time when I was not a member any more.
People don't trust them! It is not girls talk with you on chats, it is hired people pretend to be that girls to you pay for their site!

Hello,
Elena’s Models will always exercise its right to respond to false and completely incomprehensible reviews.
Frankly we have never seen a review that is so far from any reality or truth we can only assume the intent is to mislead and confuse any reader for commercial gain.
We state as normal that any respected media, legal authority or Government agency is welcome into our office and have full access to every part of our operation of 19 years, including viewing all computer code, phone records and interview employees to verify our simple but very effective dating website and membership system.
Now to Nas. F (obviously not a member of Elena’s Models as we would never allow a name without verification by our staff).
1. Paying members can share with another member by their own choice contact information. We always advise caution when doing this and provide advice how to protect your information.
2. Sharing of personal contact information with each other is the number one reason most people join Elena’s Models. They have the right to decide and not be controlled by pay per letter (PPL) dating sites who will never allow such feature.
3. We suggest to all readers to google “Pay Per Letter dating or PPL dating, the results and information will scare you.
4. No one can obtain your information unless you allow it on our website. You decide on your profile what you want to share or not want to share. It is impossible for us to do it as our code only allows you the user to select yes or no.
5. No member is paid to speak, text or mail any member on Elena’s Models. We only offer a monthly membership fee and you can text chat, video chat and mail as much as you want whenever you want so it is financially a impossibility this is even a viable method. Nas you are completely lacking logic or integrity with such a terrible claim.

Key point about Elena’s Models which reinforces the false review of Nas.

Elena’s Models does not have any third party collaboration in Ukraine or Russia. We do not co-operate with any agencies for obtaining members or profiles or require any work to be outsourced.
The only way such things can occur as suggested by Nas is if you contract agents to supply profiles to your website for a Fee, thus they then use those profiles to get a share(commission) from pay per letter communication.
However if there is any benefit in reviews like Nas, it is the help that they continue to bring to the top of discussion the massive worldwide fraud of fake and false communication occurring with payper per letter(PPL) websites.

I can't understand so many hateful reviews against EM. If these persons have the same attitude against women they try to date, I guarantee they will scare away all women. I have met two women on EM. Got the Skype address and email in second letter, when I show interest and woman liked me. The first woman was not for me but the next woman I meeting soon in Moscow. We have talked many hours on Skype. We like each other. The relationship is real, not like the PPL relationship offered by most other Dating sites. I have been there. I will never do the virtual PPL dating more. EM is highly recommended.
