DestinTie

I've been a member with them for about six years now and the paid monthly plan is still the one I keep coming back to. The matching has got better over time, the people who come through feel closer to what I'm actually after, and I've never had any trouble cancelling or pausing when I've needed a break. Customer support has always replied within a day when I've emailed them, which I appreciate. Happy to keep renewing.

What I liked most was the monthly singles evening they run in my city, which is properly organised and friendly. Booking the ticket through the site took a minute and the venue was exactly as described. I've been to four of these now and each one has been well run. Long-time member of the site and I'd recommend it to friends.

It's pretty much the same as the other dating app I use, just the subscription costs a bit more each month. The profiles feel a touch more serious though, which is nice. Signing up took a while because I had to upload a selfie for checking. Works fine.

I uploaded my pictures for the photo check and it was approved within a few hours, which was quicker than I expected. The profile page looks cleaner now and the messages arrive without lag. Only minor gripe is the notifications can be a bit much. Otherwise solid.

I'd looked at a couple of other apps and an agency before picking this one, so I had something to compare against. The monthly singles evening in my town was the bit that won me over, well run and not awkward at all. Booking my place took about two minutes. Worth the money if you want to meet people face to face.

Honestly it's a fair service and I'd put it at about average. The matches are okay, though a few of the profiles looked a bit out of date. Support was polite when I asked about a refund but it took a few days to get a reply. Nothing terrible, just not as good as I'd hoped.

I wanted somewhere with proper profile checks after a bad experience on another site. The verification step is what made me pick them. Very happy so far, just wish the filters were a bit more detailed.

Compared with the other site I was on, this one has a much more sensible free tier so I could try before paying. The profiles are a bit thinner than I'd like but there's less spam. Upgraded to the monthly plan and it's been fine. No real complaints.

The free bit was the thing I liked most, you can have a proper look before paying anything. Signed up in a couple of minutes on my phone. Haven't gone for the paid plan yet but I might.

Verdict is it's good for the most part, just a tiny bit fiddly when you're trying to change your settings on the app. Otherwise matches come through fine and I've had no trouble messaging people. Nothing major to complain about.

I bought the boost to get my profile seen more and it did get more likes for a few days. Easy to buy in the app. Price is a bit steep for what you get though. Still fine.

Compared with the matchmaking agency I used years ago, this is far easier and much less costly. The profiles are clear and the messaging is simple to follow. I was a bit doubtful at first but the support team helped me set up my profile over the phone. Pleased with how it's turned out.

I signed up because I'd been on my own for a long while and my daughter thought I'd like to meet people. The sign up was a bit long and the questions felt intrusive at times. The membership fee is more than I'd like, and I had to chase a refund on a plan I didn't use. Some people I've met through it have been very pleasant company though.

The verdict is that it's still good after all these years, and I've been a member since the early days. The site has got a bit more crowded but the matches still feel relevant. Renewal was smooth and the reminder emails were helpful. Happy with it.

Best decision I've made this year, I joined as a complete beginner and the onboarding walked me through everything. Matches have been well chosen and the app is stable. Paid for a month to start and I'll likely stay on it.

I went along to the monthly singles evening in my town as my first ever thing with them, having only ever used apps before. It was properly organised, with name badges and a nice mix of people, and the host kept things moving so nobody got stuck standing alone. I did feel a bit out of place for the first half hour but it settled down. Easy to book and I'd happily go again next month.

Compared to the other dating thing I was on, this is miles easier to get around and way less of a faff. Signed up on the bus, done in like ten minutes. Matches came through quick and the chat works fine.

I joined after a long break from dating and wanted something easy to use again. The sign up asked a lot of questions which took longer than I'd have liked. Once I was in it was fine, the matches are okay. Would give it another try.
