I am an attractive (former model) and professional (six figure income) woman and Together Dating ripped me off. They promised they would not show my photo to men, and would base matches off of interests and compability. They said the Polaroid was only for their file so they would know who I am when they matched me. They lied. Shoot, they said they didn't show anyone's photos. They lied.
They proceeded to show my photo (without my permission) over and over again. These men would meet me under wrong pretenses. I paid $1,550 for Together to find matches who would not like me for my looks, but would be interested in me, my intellect, adventurous spirit, etc.
Yes they sent me tons of men, but that wasn't a good thing. It made for horrible conversations, sitations, and dates. I hurt a lot of men's feelings because I would get so angry at Together, that it would spoil everything. Three months this went on and Together denied it.
I was so furious I went into the office and told Together to stop showing my photo. They did not. They continued to show men my photo, to "pump" themseleves up.
My only recourse was to not pay them their last payment. This caused them to finally return my calls. There was no resolution. I wanted out and I wanted a refund. They wouldn't let me, so I filed a complaint with the Better Business Bureau.
Well, the BBB conducted an arbitration meeting. After I told my side, Together offered a settlement of giving me full and open access, indefinitely to their program, and I refused based on the principle, I don't do business with deceitful people.
This wasn't about the # of men they sent me, my looks or the money. It was about DECEIT and horrible experiences that could have (and should have) been avoided by people who's mission it's supposed to be to match people, not do things to make them mad.
Together won. The BBB stated Together could use my photo and anything else about me they wanted, in any way they wanted, because I signed their enrollment document. NO MATTER WHAT THEY TOLD ME, NO MATTER WHAT I REQUESTED OR WANTED. NO MATTER HOW MANY PEOPLE'S FEELINGS IT HURT. That is so much more valuable than money. Don't believe these people. They just want your money and will tell you anything, scam you to get your money. I suspected he, the owner, paid the BBB guy off. They will use you in the process, regardless of your requests or feelings.

I am a male customer of Together, and although I have received several 'referals,' I haven't seen a picture of any of them. They sent me a slip of paper with a name, a brief description (age, height, hair and eye color,) and a telephone number. Are you sure they showed your picture? If that's the way they work, why haven't I seen any pictures?
