Complaint Review:
Gay options dating service
I paid $2995.00 for a membership with Gay Options dating service. 4 months later I had not had even one introduction. Of course when I would contact then they would tell me that just that day they had found a match but it had to be approved before they sent me the match. I never heard back from them about this supposed match.
I then became sick and had to be hospitalized. I called them and told them that I needed to cancel my membership, that I was not up to dating at this time and needed the money for my medical bills. They never even gave me a first introduction so according to the contract, they had to refund my money. Of course they then told me that surprisingly, they had found a match for me that very day. (what a coincidence) I told them that I knew they would tell me that, but that I did not want to be hassled or pressured by them to continue, that I was sick and so would they please just let me cancel and refund my money. I had to call them 3 times that day before they finally relented and sent me an e-mail confirming my cancellation and promised to refund my money within 20 to 30 days...minus $995.00 which they say is the cost of the interview, tests, and Evaluation. So I am still out $995.00 and I have to wait and see if I get the other $2000.00 refunded without anymore hassle. I can not at this time say they won't refund the $2000.00. I am hoping they will. What I can say is I feel they lied to me and made promises they never intended to keep. If I hadn't called to cancel I am sure I would still be waiting and waiting and never hear from them. They still end up taking $995.00 from me for basically doing nothing but giving me false hope...so I paid $995.00 for false hope.
