First off this site has no way to determine distance. You'll get people hundreds of miles away viewing your profile and wanting to meet you. Also there are many, many fake profiles. If you message someone and don't get a response look at their pictures very carefully. You can tell if the picture is superimposed. In the York pa area there is a very good looking man with his dog in front of a lake. It is superimposed. You can tell because he is standing on top of the water.
On this site no one responds. It's because there are so many fakes that people searching for the love of their life get frustrated and give up responding.
This site costs less than others but don't kid yourself. All dating sites are the same and owned by the corporation.
Zoosk dating app where do I start! I get it we are living in crazy busy times and it's hard to meet someone. (Time is valuable) almost 3 weeks in I hit 1k messages! (men=horndogs) Out of all that overwhelming nonsense I made a friend and fell head over heels over a cutie. Let my guard down went on an amazing date. Then nada! If you need a lot of attention this app is for you! Good luck!
Reading great reviews and thinking Zoosk would be better than other sites, I joined for a 6 month trial. In less than two weeks, I am terribly disappointed. This site seems to be no different than the others. In my search, not only are the members constantly showing up, but there seems to be no real matching tools built in. It asks too often, If I mind smokers, for example. I say no and it continues to ask. Its always the same people over and over again. The final straw was finding the same image, three slightly different profiles, in three different parts of the country in which ALL were online at the same time. This profile is a good example of how Zoosk isn't any different; FAKE profiles. Most are real yes, but, many are not. I can no longer trust this site like the others. I think it's a waste of money, or at least I think I wasted mine. Congrats to the people who allegedly found the loves of their lives through this site. My first date, which was about 3 minutes, showed up drunk and slurring... bottom of the barrel. Also, the way the app is created, you cannot enlarge the images, one size does not fit all. If they are not going to allow a full descriptive profile, at least allow the image enlargement.
I have on and off this sit twice
In last year and half. Varosrl is a joke and smart picks waste of time. A vast number of pictures and profiles are not even members anymore
How can they match you with people 75 to 200 miles away and if you look at someone and they sign o. They say they looked at you. Which is not true
I have sent them 4 emails about them revamping their site and app with no response all about the money not about the customer
I recently signed up, paid my subscription but still cannot send messages to most of the people I "match" with. AND there is no support available! I have tried three browsers, Bing, Chrome and Firefox, but still can only message a small number of people, it lets me type in the message, but when I click send, nothing, absolutely nothing, no error and the message just sits in the box.
The white women on here is not interested in African-American men I just basically it's just a white dating site for a whites Nothing wrong with that it's just not for us African-American community
I was scammed on Zoosk at a very professional level. He was SO believable believable he even Skyped with me the second day ( before he left on a fictional work trip to Canada -- using a fake video. Over a 6 week period, he ", groomed' me & gained my trust -- now I realize he was waiting for a chance to ask for money. As it turned out, he was stealing the copyrighted photos of a male model in the UK as himself. He also did speak French and German, in addition to English -- which he cleverly used to support his identity as real. Even when I confronted him with undeniable evidence, he never broke character! He was outraged and upset that I could believe his deception,( I had lots of proof) & threatened to block ME & report ME for "stalking."!
He was very very good at all of it & I'm sure he wasn't working alone. So now I have significant trust issues and,'real' feelings that have lingered for a fake person. It was gaslighting at it's best & I'm unsure how I will ever get over this experience.
Zooks gives no feedback to your complaint or.if they even looked up the offender or removed his false profile.
So stay off Zoosk -- all they care about is getting your money!
Not only did I not get responses, ( let me clarify, I got one response from a woman who just wanted money, and another who disappeared after a day -I'm not a bad guy, I wasn't rude) which makes me wonder if any of the profiles are real/active, after I cancelled on their site, they tried billing me again - twice! Don't trust this site.
I write to warn others of my experience with zoosk clients. On one occasion, a putative client presented herself as a woman living 40 miles from me. She shared my interest in antiques, seemed quite as well informed about her field as I would expect. After about a week of Increasingly intimate messages, she postponed a scheduled date because she had gotten a lead on a possible contract for her to supply a wholesale dealer in antiques with quality pieces of Canadian antiquities. She documented her flight from Logan Airport in Boston to Toronto with photos of herself in setting I recognized from my travels. All went well until she was unable to draw $6,000 from her bank. I refused to give her the money, but asked her to establish a basis on which I could evaluate the credibility of her story. I expected there to be large holes in her yarn. To my astonishment, she produced a credible invoice for the $6,000 written on the letterhead of an organization that advertises on the internet and in magazines that are currently circulated among antique dealers and is a member of the Dothan, Alabama, chamber of commerce. The instructions for payment was directed to a bank doing business in Dothan Alabama. Finally, the people involved in the scene presented to me answered telephones identified through 411.
In summary, this is the most elaborate and sophisticated internet scam I have found in 40 years of study of this behavior.
After having experienced this event, I used the one tell (indicator that the scam was a fraud) that proved the most effective way to detect fraud to identify 8 other clear frauds. I was able in all but one of these 8 cases to corroborate my conclusion by the presence of a second indicator that the clients were not who they claimed to be.
Zoosk blandly says tha we should report incidents of fraud like this. Their position is, caveat emptor, "Let the buyer beware. " I recommend that you do so.
I'm glad I only signed up for one month at $29.95, What a waste of money and time. I am a Christian man and telling you the truth. Here is my experience w/ Zoosk. First of all I am a good looking guy but looks is not everything. This Zoosk site is as dead as Julius Caesar. Very small audience--few real profiles and many are fake. Based only on looks. No science at all. Actually Zoosk messes with your messages by sending you fake profile messages. These new messages always show up in the morning Zoosk does their dirty work at night--like a thief in the night. After you reply to these fake profile messages they disappear the next day. You can do a full search for that fake profile and they don't exist at all. "All fake". Zoosk must think we are all stupid. Please believe me--DON'T WASTE YOUR MONEY DON'T GIVE IT TO THESE THIEFS---I HOPE THIS HELPS YOU.
Zoosk is a Scam. I Tried this site's free memebreship before paying. At least half of the notifications of activity ("likes", "Wants to meet you"' and "Zoosk member viewed you") are fake and not from a real person. Zoosk has a ton of phony profiles they use these for fake activity to scam you into thinking people want to communicate so you should sign up. You think hey I'm finding some matches... wrong! It's all a ploy to build false excitement. Phony mutual match sand connections only show upon 1st look then disappear if you refresh and look again. If a photo has numbers on it, it's fake. Almost all profiles with of women with only 1 pic, no kids, and no info about interests was bogus and the site is full of these profiles. AVOID Zoosk... go to Hinge where I've not expereienced any of the BS you get t zoosk.
I paid for a 6 month membership. After a couple months I went to log in and it said my account was blocked by an administrator. After several conversation with their rude employees I was told I would have to open another account and once I paid they would credit my account. I paid for a 6 month membership again and after 2 weeks my account was blocked again and I never received my credit. Now I'm out over $100 and Zoosk won't respond to my emails. Big rip off!
I found Zoosk.com to have 3 out of 10 women were scammers looking for money... They have even teamed up with a woman with a profile on Zoosk who references her "friend" who wants to meet you but doesn't have an online profile herself. This was a major red flag to me. Some very pretty girls turn out to have husky male voices on calls. Photo verifications and profile scrubbing by Zoosk support would help with these problems. While a fairly easy-to-use platform and I appreciated the SmartPicks, I do not feel that it was worth the money I spent on it.
I had to block A person from phone who is not who he claims to be. I checked him out and all lies. Tried to contact zoom but was unable to.
Free membership blocks any of the messages that you are getting except from the bots. There is no refund when the block you after 2 days and no customer help or way to speak with them then they continue to charge reoccurring and give no way to stop or refund
After paying for a 3 month subscription, I was not given the "Free Perks" as advertised. I had about 21 days of "Instant Crush" and the option of going back to look at a profile. Many of the profiles had no picture or story, making it impossible to make a selection. Their matches and smart picks resulted in people far exceeding the 100 mile preference, 95% of the time. You CANNOT edit your default search parameters and if you critize them, your story gets "edited". Definitely not renewing my subscription!
These sites are ALL the same with many operated by the same parent company.
Tip: If you decide to join to ANY in the future only use Paypal (not a credit card). So far I have gotten refunds super quick from 2 scam sites that didn't live up to the hype. Also on PP, you can opt your settings to block auto renewals if they try to charge you again.
Sadly some ONLY offer payment via credit card, so stay away from those 100% if you do not want to empty your bank account.
I am sorry, but I found this website unacceptable. It was difficult to maneuver and find what you were looking for. Just because someone looks at your story doesn't mean they are interested. There were too many bad photos, too many profiles with insufficient information and some with no information at all. I even received a request for my email address from someone that had already canceled their subscription. Luckily I was astute enough to recognize the red flag. I would not recommend this dating service to anyone. I am very disappointed
Answer: These view are fake. Zoosk is lousy site! They obviously mislead their customers giving them fake likes and matches. You get instant bot auto-responses. I left to http://J4Love.net The result of my search there is incredibly awesome: I finally spent Christmas with my woman! I had wasted 11 months on Zoosk and then it took me just one month here to meet my perfect woman. Don't let Zoosk con you into their shady and phony "dating" kingdom. Zoosk is worthless, time is precious! The longevity of profiles is tremendous, they are there for years, obviously outdated.
Answer: The real matches are scant and located at distant places. The fake matches are abundant especially when your membership is about to end. It's phony. I met my girlfriend on http://J4Love.net This dating service is a lot better than Zoosk, Match, Tinder, etc. They are more professional with ethical approach to business - something that Zoosk lacks now. Zoosk used to be better couple of years ago, but now they suck.
Answer: ZOOSK, is a total RIPOFF
Answer: NO MA'AM IT IS NOT. In fact I only used the coins when I could get them for free. Under the system that's no longer possible. Nobody takes that sort of thing seriously, and for a woman it's even less relevant.
Answer: In the two months I have been on Zoosk. I have chatted with a number of woman, exchanged phone numbers and talked on the phone and I am just an average looking joe. I have also had times when I received a chat request and the person does not respond. You do have to pay to chat and the other person has to be a paid member. OK if your reading this there is one thing I found, if you search, only pay attention to the ones that say "recently online", the other ones may be fake or no longer active. It's a numbers game I have had many that did not respond to my messages also.
Answer: I believe it is. But how safe is the internet these days. Just don't be quick to give too much information too soon you will know when its right to share. Good luck
Answer: Not at all don't bother buying them just play some games u will get some
Answer: Chances are you're sending a message to someone that was a member long ago and isn't registered any longer. Zoosk is a total scam.
Answer: Unfortunatly not. You have to be a member. I suggest you don't try this site. It won't help you to find wat you're looking for. Cheers. R.
Answer: I can't believe you expect that! The whole idea is anonymity until people are comfortable with exchanging personal info.
