It works!
November 9, 2022

Met an amazing man on Zoosk. We clicked immediately! We've been exclusively dating for almost seven months now and see a future. To think I was a widow, curious and seeking possible friendship!

I have been up for three days with asthma, and I'm watching a nephew who is five years old. I was uploading pictures of my rabbits, which were denied and of myself. If something got in there that shouldn't have. I'm not sure what I did wrong. I got confirmation that all my pictures have been confirmed or verified, this site is a joke. This is the second time that I have been on here and they have locked me out of my account and it was a couple days after I canceled my subscription. I will no longer be using this website I will be reporting a privacy issue to the Better Business Bureau and other places, I will not be taken advantage of again and I'm sick and tired of staring at peoples crutches and penises. I'm on the website to date not to hook up with every person who wants to hook up and I shouldn't be excluded especially since they had a question in there about being bisexual, they say are we allowed on there because we're bisexual and different well why wouldn't you it's not the 1950s anymore and I'm sick of losing money on these stupid $#*! dating apps that nobody is even real I have been doing this for three years and it is so stale. This site in particular is the worst.

A couple years ago I got divorced and joined the site. Not knowing I had joined the ex did the same thing. We're on good terms so when the ex contacted me to say he got an alert from Zoosk that I wanted to meet him we cracked up. Fast forward to current day I'm engaged (he's happily single) and he messages me saying that he got an alert from Zoosk that I want to meet him AGAIN…. He sent me the pic of my bio that he received. We both cracked up even more cause we know this site is fake as heck. Thing is on the same day he got his alert I got one but mine was even shadier. Zoosk thanked me for subscribing …. It included some fake credit card number that was used. The first thing I did was check my subscriptions to make sure they didn't fraudulently charge my card. They didn't, obviously it was just a ploy. All I can say is good or bad this site can be very entertaining.

Could Be Better
October 20, 2022

I have a mixed review on Zoosk. It is not a really bad site, but it could be much better. There are not many potential profiles within my location. Their suggestions to expand the filters is good, but only if you prefer to travel several hundred miles to meet someone. There are people who may "like" you; however, whether one may actually meet these individuals is another zoosk story. After 60 days, there is no refund possible, even if you have purchased a 6 month package. My workable advice is to join groups in your location through MeetUp who may share similar interests with you, and possibly meet someone that way.

One of the worst dating sites I've tried yet. Believe the negative reviews. Save your money. Unless you like spending money talking fake photos.

Bad experience for me. Lots of FAKE PROFILES. That means that there are NOT safe procedures in place. In addition the system itself is at least weird. Not simple at all. I paid and got nothing.

Not worth it
September 27, 2022

You first sign up, you surprisingly get a ton of likes. Then you subscribe to find out that's not the case. You leave messages, which you wonder if people even get them. The site "teases" you into thinking people are interested. Which is not true. Ive used the site twice over a course of a year. And, see the same people on there? Makes you wonder?

Money scam! I also joined AdultsFun.club out of curiosity just to give it a try and surprisingly, it worked out for me and I met a wonderful lady. Actually I met many beautiful women there, all of them turned out to be genuine and honest. The pool of people seems larger on Zoosk but since Zoosk took to misleading their customers, most of these profiles are either outdated or 100% fake. They are tarnishing their name because of greed. They make it look like many people are interested in you on Zoosk, but it's not true. Search engine is terrible, you have to click on each profile. I met some women there, all of them turned out to be fake. There is nothing more to say about Zoosk. It's set up to drain your credit card - this is the only goal they have.

Good for Amusement Only
September 9, 2022

I have been a paying member for about a month. I upgraded my membership from free to paying because of e mails from Zoosk that told me that females such as "Show me the money," "I'll have the lobster," and "I don't do Olive Garden" (names have been changed to protect the privacy of the member) sent me a message or wanted to meet me. However, when I clicked on the member's profile there was no message. Sometimes there was a heart symbol, sometimes not even that. Most of my "admirers" live hundreds of miles away. When I sent a polite message to the few that did not there was never a reply.
When Zoosk matches me with a potential partner, she often lives way beyond the distance I considerer reasonable for dating.
While I find the site entertaining, it does not do what it purports to do. Because none of my "admirers" have ever responded to my messages, I have come to the conclusion that there is something fundamentally wrong with the way the site operates. Some reviewers have expressed the opinion that the responses to one's profile as reported by Zoosk are not genuine. I can not confirm this. But it does explain my experience with Zoosk.
I would not recommend that anyone pay money to be a member, even if you have money to burn.

Fake girls. Fake pics. If you find someone real, it's a hooker. IF someone messages you, AND THEY WON'T, it's a Catfish asking, "do you like Zoosk?" or "Distance is of no matter to me." Or "Hi, I'm_____, I'm currently in another country but would love to meet you."

It's all trash. Many post their "escorts resume" from another site on their profile. (LOOK AT THE SMALL PRINT IN THEIR BIO).

ZOOSK is a scam and needs to be investigated!

I've looked at the way other big name online dating platforms, such as Hinge and Bumble are set up, and the way Zoosk is, is far from that. The App as well as the website need to be updated, it's not set up where a modern day customer can use the platform and not feel confused or overwhelmed by how crowded everything is. I also can't even imagine how confusing it must be to know whether the person you're talking to is a real person or not. Making a profile takes only a minute and there is barely any verification involved to confirm whether or not you are a real person.

I don't trust Zoosk
August 29, 2022

I don't have much experience with online dating, but this seems like a scam. It's free to sign up and make a profile, but when you try to look at messages, you have to pay. Also, there are coins you can buy to make yourself more visible to other users. It just seems kind of sketchy overall. Like if you made an account with no information they would send you fake messages hoping your curiosity would get you to pay for the subscription to read them.

Seems decent
October 27, 2022

I checked out this website to see if it would be something I'd want to pay for, and I'm not sure it quite fits that for my tastes. As a gay man, generally I prefer to go to sites that are either queer-focused - having a stronger sense of what my needs are for a dating site - or with clear queer influence into how the site is set up, such as OkCupid.

That said, the site was overall professional-looking and solid. I did have trouble uploading an image, but otherwise I set up a profile very easily, saw at least one person in my area of interest, and I enjoyed filling out the icebreakers. I can imagine using this in the future but would probably want more of a taste of what's available before spending money on it (I wasn't able to look at anyone's profile in any depth).

Too many imposters
August 21, 2022

Not happy using this as you're not sure of who you're really in contact with and you're made to pay for it. I had this company (pandrex.co) vet a man i was in contact with and he turned out to be an imposter who has been scamming people for some time.

A good online dating site should be easy to get registered on, and also easy to navigate people's profiles and choose who to make friends with. Before I got to know about zoosk, I had terrible experiences on many online dating sites! However, with Zoosk I am really having a great time meeting real and nice people online that have become really close friends. The zoosk support system are just simply amazing. I recommend them to you if you are like me who have little or no time to socialize physically. You will definitely love it

To Zoosk or not to.
August 14, 2022

I feel from my experience Zoosk@ https://www.zoosk.com/ Zoosk.com is full of players and no one comes across as serious on Zoosk in looking for a real relationship. What do we expect for free? Sometimes we get what we pay for. I recommend trying a paid option to see if your chances improve in having better luck with chemistry in finding a soulmate or partner if that is what you want.
