Hello Yvonne,

Thanks for your review and for sharing your thoughts.

We understand it can be frustrating when a conversation suddenly stops. Unfortunately, we can’t always be sure why a match disappears, it could be that the member decided to leave the platform.

Regarding scammers, we take reports of suspicious profiles very seriously. If something ever seems off, you can report the profile and our team will take a closer look. And if you ever need assistance, feel free to reach out via our contact form.

Best regards,

Hello Mrjay,

Thank you for your feedback!

After checking your account, we can see that our customer service team had been in touch and shared how to cancel your membership. To make things easier, we’ve gone ahead and cancelled your premium membership as a goodwill gesture, so it won’t be renewed.

Just a friendly tip; sometimes our emails like to hide in your spam or junk folder, so it’s worth keeping an eye out there. We hope this helps, and we really appreciate you sharing your experience!

Hello,

We are a legitimate company and do not issue collection requests without a valid contract or outstanding balance. If a subscription was created and not properly cancelled according to the agreed terms, reminder or collection procedures may be initiated.

As we cannot identify accounts from a public review, we kindly ask you to contact us directly via our contact form with the email address used during registration. This will allow us to review your case, and clarify or resolve the matter appropriately.

Its a scam I will not pay a penny to them in fact if you live in the UK you can sue them for harassment if they continue drmand money. This is due to unfair and unlawful business practices. Cancel all payments to them via your payment method and screenshot all emails sent to them ie cancelation requests and also all emails received from them and rack up the evidence. This is a exploitative fake business. Steer clear

Disgusting, exploitation business.

This is nothing short of a scam. I to got sucked into the premium service without warning. When I tried to cancel I found it was near impossible. I stopped payment with PayPal and 4 month later got a letter from a debt collection agency in Luxembourg. When I contacted c-date they basically said that the email id sent them to cancel my subscription wasn’t valid so there was nothing they could do. Absolute scum. Steer well clear.

Update post c-date response: I emailed you to cancel my subscription as your website and online form make this impossible. You know that you make it as hard as possible to cancel the subscription, this is obviously part of your business model.

I have reached out to your service team and they are obstructive and unhelpful. I reiterate -you are perhaps the worse company I have had to deal with… ever. Have a word with yourselves.

Second update:

As I have clearly stated, I couldn’t cancel via your website because the account wasn’t registered to an email address I knew. I emailed you one month before cancelling via PayPal and didn’t receive a reply. I have explained this to your customer service team multiple times.

I have reached out to your customer service team and they have continued to be obstructive and dismissive. Sending the same circular replies.

As a business you refuse to take any responsibility for your actions. Your actions are morally disgusting. Your business model is clearly designed to exploit people. I suggest if you haven’t got the skills to compete in the dating market in a moral way you should admit you’re useless and go and do something else with your lives, preferably away from the rest of society.

Update 3: stop trying to sound professional and empathetic on here. Its nonsense. Your answers are circular both on here and with your customer service team. You don’t care about your ‘customers’, you’re scammers.

Hello Mark,

We’re sorry for the frustration you’ve experienced. Please note that stopping payments via PayPal is not the same as cancelling your subscription on our website. To ensure cancellation is valid, it must be done through our online cancellation form, which is designed to make the process simple and secure.

If you ever encounter issues, our support team is always here to help and can be reached through our contact form. We encourage you to get in touch with us directly so we can review your case and assist you further.

Thank you for providing your information. Unfortunately, we are unable to locate any profile registered to this email. We advise you to contact us directly via our contact form on our website or via our customer service email address directly.
You can reach me directly at cdate-trustpilot@c-date.co.uk and we'll be able to look into this together. We are unable to discuss personal matters on a public platform such as this one.

Thanks for your understanding.

Warning from a Google Local Guide (Level 7):

My mistake was not reading the reviews before signing up. Just like hundreds of others, I was suddenly a “premium” member without realizing it, and a huge amount was charged from my account. I first thought it was a one-time payment – but the next month the exact same massive charge happened again.

Canceling was a nightmare: login loops, broken forms, and only copy-paste responses from customer service. Only after quoting EU law did they reluctantly agree to stop my subscription. I received written confirmation, but based on other reviews I still expect fake invoices and threats to come.

👉 And before C-Date replies with their usual “it’s easy to cancel via our form” – no, it’s not. That’s exactly where the scam lies.

💀 This is not a dating service. It’s a business model designed to make cancellation as difficult as possible and drain as much money as they can.

As a Local Guide, I strongly warn everyone: stay away.

Absolutely shocking company and their so called solicitors

Absolutely shocking, my details were used fraudulently to register with this site. I've been hounded by their solicitors based in Frankfurt for money on a membership that I didn't take out. I've explained that to the solicitors "Advokat Radoslav Koychev" with documentation from the police but they still pursue the monies. I've been informed by the detectives looking into the case that many cases are ongoing.

Update, seriously Lea or should I say the random bot who is updating. how can I have cancelled my account when it was set up fraudulently

And as you can see from the reply below they have no concept of what is going on. We have reached out Lea to your customer services team to be told they have no information regarding this and to speak directly with the solicitors as it's in their hands now. So I'm not sure why your telling me to go back to customer services when they won't talk to us. I would presume that they C-Date and Advokat Radoslav Koychev solicitors work in this scam together. If you read reviews of the solicitors, they're equally bad reviews.

It will be interesting to see the outcome of the police investigations ☺️ and in relation to the trading standards of C-Date and the aggressive approach of Advokat Radoslav Koychev

further to note that the act of knowingly pursuing an individual for a debt which is not owed may constitute a criminal offence under Section 40 of the Administration of Justice Act 1970 UK

Hello Lee,

Your account wasn’t cancelled before the renewal took place, and we didn’t receive any timely communication to stop the charge. We also attempted to contact you twice about the unpaid invoice. As no payment was made, the matter was escalated to an external agency, and you’ll need to get in touch with them directly if you wish to dispute the claim.
