Singles 50

I'd say this is a good place to be for people over fifty who are ready to meet someone. I've been a member for a few years now and the community feels friendly and sensible. The events section has been useful for meeting people in my area. My subscription renews without any fuss.

The age filter is spot on and the speed dating listings are easy to find. Booked a Tuesday evening in Manchester and the confirmation came straight away. Would sign up again.

I needed a cheaper way to meet people after my husband passed, and the price was the first thing I noticed. Compared with the agencies I'd looked at, this is a fraction of the cost. The matches have been decent and I've enjoyed chatting. Good value.

I signed up because a colleague suggested it and I was nervous about the whole idea. The sign up asked lots of questions and it took longer than I expected to finish my profile. Since then I've had a handful of messages, some from people who were clearly not serious. I've not met anyone yet but it's early days.

After a long marriage ended I needed a way back into meeting people and didn't know where to start. A friend suggested this site and I've been using it for about four months now. The profile questions helped me think about what I actually want, and the people I've met have been mature and easy to talk to. It has given me my confidence back.

I needed somewhere safer than the free apps where everyone seems to be after something. This site checks profiles and the moderators actually respond when you report someone, which I appreciated. Feels like a proper community for people my age. I've had good conversations and no nasty surprises.

Compared with the other dating site my sister uses, this one takes a bit more getting used to. The layout is busier and I couldn't find the settings for a while. Once I got going the messages were good and the people seem genuine. The membership is a little pricier than the rival but I'd say it's worth it.

I did compare this with the other mature dating sites before joining, and I found this one a touch easier to navigate. It did take a few days for the verification email to arrive, which was a little frustrating, though it did come through in the end. The profiles I've looked at are pleasant and the people appear sincere.

Booked a speed dating evening on the site last month. Took two minutes to pick a date and pay, confirmation came straight away. The evening itself was relaxed, the hosts kept things moving and I had a laugh. Would go again.

Upgraded to the paid plan on my phone during my lunch break. Quick and easy. Works fine but the app kept logging me out once, which is annoying. Still got a few replies in the first week so not bad.

Paid for the monthly plan and worked out it came to less per week than my weekly bingo. For that you get unlimited messages and the profile boost, which I used once and saw the difference straight away. Nothing hidden in the small print that I could find.

Compared with the bigger general dating apps I tried before, this one feels far more suited to people my age. There are fewer profiles but they are more serious and fewer people are just after a quick message. Sign up was straightforward and the membership cost is fair for what you get, though the matching could be a bit more accurate.

Renewed for another year and that's the best verdict I can give it. I've been on here since the start and the site has kept up with changes. The photo checks keep the fakes down and the reminders for new matches are useful. Renewal was simple and there was no fuss.

I compared a few sites before choosing and went for the premium membership here. It cost more than the basic option on another site but I wanted the advanced filters and the ability to see who had viewed my profile. The upgrade was easy to set up and it works as described. Met two people through it so far.

Honestly the best of the sites I tried this year. I looked at three others first and this one had the most local members and the least spam. Signing up took a few minutes and the app has never crashed on me. I met a lovely woman through it in the spring and we're still seeing each other, so that tells you something.

The age filter is the first thing I looked for and it works properly, so I'm not getting men in their twenties messaging me. I've been on a few of these sites over the years and this is the one that knows its market. Profiles are detailed and people seem to be on there for the right reasons.

Signed up and it's good, honestly. The sign up took about two minutes and the matches started coming through the same evening. Messaging is easy, the app doesn't crash, and I've actually had a couple of proper conversations going, which is more than I can say for the other apps I've used.

Compared a couple of meetup sites first and this one had the best listings for my area. Booked a walking group meetup through the site, paid on the day and the organiser was great. Good group of people and a decent walk. Will be booking the next one.

Way better than the free apps my mates use, honestly. Everyone on here actually seems to want to meet up rather than just chat forever. Signed up in a few taps and the profiles feel more real. Went on two dates in the first month and had a good time at both.
