EliteSingles.com - review

Can you find educated singles on this dating site? Profiles are real or fake?

Is it worth to pay and use our time to search for love on Elite Singles?

Let's take a look closer at dating here.

They advertise as a dating APP for elite professionals. Is it a legit claim?

Registration... To register, you need to fill in 15 min personality test. And after login, you find out that you cannot do anything on this site until you pay. With a free account, you cannot do anything. You cannot see other photos or send messages. So if you think you can test it for free and see how it works for you, there is no such option.

Let's say you decided to pay?

Elite Singles COST, how much are you actually paying?

Prepare for misleading pricing and automatic renewals. The prices are shown per month that is not so obvious when we look at this. The pictures show calculated actual prices.

Elitesingles deceiving pricing and automatic renewal

But after we pay, we need to be prepared for automatic renewal. It means that if you don't cancel your paid subscription, elitesingles will automatically take money from your bank account for another period. The price for another period will be without a promotion price.

Elitesingles.com hidden costs

According to what they wrote:

This offer is automatically renewed after the promotional period into a 3 months Premium Membership for $89.85 only (excluding tax). You can cancel the automatic renewal of your Premium Membership at any time by contacting our Customer Care at least 24 hours before the expiry of the subscription term. Further details can be found in our Terms and Conditions.

Anyway, you decided to pay.

Premium Membership

Now you log in with your premium Membership.

What you can expect?

  • It's overpriced. You get little value for this price.
  • You will have only a few matches, and you cannot search or swipe users by yourself.
  • In the beginning, you will get some matches from your area, but later many partners are far away from you. Too far away to even consider a contact. Elitesingles don't take into account your preferences (age, habits, psychological profile, distance, education, the desire for having or not having children). It's like you spend all this time to fill the test for nothing.
  • You will have the impression that most of the profiles are dead, and you have a chance to talk to only a few real people.
  • If you try to contact customer service, they will not be very helpful about anything.
  • If you check Trustpilot, you will see a lot o negative reviews and that this site has a ranking near to 1 where 5 stars are the best and 1 the worst.
  • Their APP reviews on Google Play are also not very optimistic.

To summarize, it not worth spending money on it or even create an account.

Canceling premium membership in the right time or...

You need to cancel membership proper time before your expiry of the subscription term (You need to check the Terms and Conditions of www.elitesingles.com in your country. If you won't do it on time and try to contact customer service, it's most likely you will receive the message like this:

Dear User

Thank you for your message.

Your subscription renewed because it was not cancelled, at least, 7 days before the end of your subscription term.

I'm sorry the right to a refund of your membership fee is only valid for 14 days after the initial purchase and not after the subscription is renewed.

Your subscription is renewed for the same duration, as is indicated before and after purchase. However, it is still part of the same initial contract which you agreed to upon purchase.

The automatic renewal of your Premium membership has now been cancelled. Of course, you can still use your Premium Membership up until --end date--.

If you did cancel the automatic renewal of your membership on time, please provide us with some kind of documentation of this, and we will gladly look into it.

Thank you for your understanding.

If you have any further questions regarding the website or the matching process, please do not hesitate to contact me.

Sincerely,

Avoid dating sites with fake profiles

Dating sites that do not let you find love can be exhausting, so in case, check the list of fake dating websites. On the list, you will find the dating APP myDates, for example. A lot of women will write directly after creating a profile, so guess if it is real or fake?

Read C-Date.com review in case of looking for casual dating to avoid losing money and experiencing hell with canceling a premium subscription.

Login, Sign in, Signup...- waste of time and cash!

Each time you log in to their dating site, you need to expect big number o matches with quite pretty pictures under the blurred face. However, after payment, many matches will not have photos and will be outside your city.

Spark Network

Elite singles belong to Spark Networks, a dating company that includes APPs and sites like Zoosk, eDarling, Christian Mingle, SilverSingles, jDate, jSwipe, AdventistAingles, and Attractive World.

eDarling has negative reviews about automatic renewals, deceptive pricing, canceling difficulties, and deb collector Agency treats.

Popularity analysis

The site is mostly used in United States but even here, it not very popular. The phrase "elitesingles com" is typed to Google around 2900 times per month worldwide and "elitesingles" 49500 times per month worldwide. Compered to Zoosk more than two million times per month, it's very unfamous, so the number of users is also minimal.

Elite Singles APP has a low rating

There is an APP (Dating App for singles over 30) on Google Play and iOS APP Store on both services; the reviews are not welcoming. However, people mostly complain that the app is not working properly and has many bugs and usability issues. Still, some reviews complain about the minimal amount of matches showed to them daily and that customer support is not working.

Reviews

If you examine the reviews of www.elitesingles.com on Google Play, Trustpilot, Reddit, and different internet forums, you will notice most people who use this site say it is not worth the money and time.

Deceptive marketing

They use deceptive marketing practices to make it look like you will only pay for one month, but they will charge you for six months and won't refund for unused months even if you ask for a refund within a few days. You must ask for a full refund within three days once you paid the membership. The app itself is very glitchy with a ton of bugs. It has a lot of limitations. Also, it's tough to find the contact form, and there is no customer service.

Bugs and errors in the APP

App is buggy, algorithm can't match correctly. Two strikes!

Pete, EliteSingles APP on Google Play

Expensive and not worth it

I feel like a moron for paying for a 6-month membership without reading reviews first! This site is awful. It is so expensive to be shown a few hands picked singles each day without searching through profiles yourself—absolute waste of time.

Scarlett UK, EliteSingles.co.uk Trustpilot

Bad costumers service, matches are far away

I got scammed by elite singles. No matches within 6 hrs driving time. They threaten you if you cancel your membership immediately. They are out of the country in Canada and Germany. Do not give them a credit card number. There is no live customer service. You will be ripped off for hundreds of dollars.
