Datingdirect 

That is one star more than I wanted to give. I joined and had four Russian women contact me before I finished writing my profile. Does not seem to be a way to see within milage. I joined and deleted in 10 mins, thankfully I did not pay.

Back in 2009 i know its long ago, but i was getting frustrated with date sites went on many blind dates , with no results ( I'm no Brad Pitt ) so i gave it up, but curiosity got the better of me so i thought I'll give it another 3 months bless my soul, i found Wendy, we agreed to meet.
The date didn't really go to plan, firstly i cut myself shaving & because I'd been on so many bad dates before i decided to hide & watching her first, i was impressed so i made myself visible, where have you been she said just got here i said ( little lie )
So we went to Costa coffee, while there my lip started to bleed, how embarrassing i asked if she had a tissue, you could say we talked about an hour, my lip wouldn't stop bleeding she must have thought what an idiot, anyway i said that i was going to see a blues band that night would you like to come, i was expecting a ( biss off ) she said OK i nearly fell over SHOCK, what could go wrong ??
So i picked her up from town & we stopped for a drink before heading to the venue, of course they had flimsy plastic cups at the gig & during an embrace somehow spilt beer over her, its going well ( not ) people call me Henry because its my middle name, so came the end of the night she says to me is your name really Henry its not Richard is it ( F--K apparently she just broke up with an bloke called Richard, what can i say.
I met Wendy on the 9th of May 2009 we dated for 3.5 years got married in 2013, thankyou dating direct Wendy is my soul mate.
Love you to the Moon 🌙 & back ❤️

I joined this site a few days ago, but was deciding if I should be a paid member, aslas it wasn't long before I had obscured visitors... In'fact it reminded me of some years ago when I became a full member, it was the only site that you had visitors without having had a picture displayed... I smell a rat.
So remembering all the ghost inactive profiles from years back I decided to update my About me, stating I'm not yet a full member, and not yet sure if I might take a gamble.(last sentence)
Within minutes not only was my about me edit deleted but my whole about me.
So I saved money by not subscribing,... Adding that you are not yet decided and paid up yet, breaches dating directs terms... YET, its OK it seems if my profile was left as it was... An inactive ghost profile. Run by the equivalent of the gestapo.
One things changed, you now must add a picture,.. I actually had two dates years back on dating direct.. The two dates happened to also be on plentyofish too!.. a totally free site then... So I guess I wasted my money the first time.
I would say there was more chance of finding a date on trust pilot🤔

This site is dreadful, you cannot get out of it. I have an email confirming my subscription has been cancelled and yet it is still being taken out of my bank. I have contacted them, no help! Dont use it. Just dont use it.

Looks like many of other dating websites that one is full of fake ladies and that's the whole point of making it totally possible for many possible reasons. I am only hoping to get it fast now so you really shouldn't bother with it if you plan some free dates.

Keep debiting money from credit card after you cancel. Refuse to refund. Poor website design to make cancelling difficult. Phone them and keep getting cut off after being on hold for 5 mins. Avoid.

I've given 1 star for the rating only because it was the only way to write the review.
The whole thing is a total discrace, I have written countless messages using the advice of dating direct and 99% have come back Sorry this person does not want to talk to you. The only thing I can credit the website for is destroying your self confidence.
I don't know if it's the fault of the website or the idiota that subscribe that are to blame but experience is that it has been a total waste of money.
Don't go there

Just cancelled my account, very very shady company, will not allow you to see who has viewed your profile, sends people interests from you without permission and you cant delete them, id be happy to bet once you pay theres hardly any contact as all notifications you get are also fake..43 pound a month? you either have to be dssperate or have more money than brains...i think id rather stay single

Just don't bother 3 years no dates just 6 or 7 african robbers everyday to steal your life savings. The basement bucket of dating , no support. Safe your peace of mind and avoid this company like the plague

Taking the standard service is £39.99 per month (Match is the same price with what appears to be the same database of users) So sending emails to ladies get no reply and the reason i think for this is that you have to upgrade to allow them to contact you, doing this pushes your subscription up to £49.95 per month..... not good at all and for this reason it gets 1 start, better off going else where.

Paying 12 months now, not had a single date the women are either fake stuck up there own bum and you always see the same women online for months at a time. I not bad looking either! I 6ft2 and weightlift so I guess it is a dog of a dating site compared to other FREE ones I have used.
Also it's a nightmare to cancel subscription as you can't contact them.
