men Mostly Turds Reviewer: Anonymous 08-25-2005 I've met nice, reasonable Jewish guys on sites that cater to the general public, such as Match.com. But on Jdate - a specifically Jewish site - they're mostly turds with poor social skills! Where else have I ever seen a guy post a picture of himself - with his arms wrapped around another woman??

Bait & Switch Reviewer: Anonymous 08-03-2005 This site is essentially a scam. The company that runs it entices people to join on the false premise that there are many members in your area. However, they do not indicate that many of those members are not paying members and are therefore not contactable. So, you are essentially paying for one thing and getting something far inferior.

Don't Do It Reviewer: Anonymous 07-20-2005 I barely lasted a month before taking my profile down and running from this terrible site. It is just way too easy for people to misrepresent themselves on this type of e-forum. Buyer Beware! |
It's A Scam Reviewer: Anonymous 07-16-2005 These greedy pigs do everything they can to give the appearance of more active members than they actually have. They force you to post a profile to search the site and then remove anything from your profile that says you are not a paying member! |
Good Way To Meet People Reviewer: Anonymous 07-15-2005 Though none of the relationships I've had with people I've met through the site have worked out for the long-run, each time I've met at least one guy that was worth getting to know and date for a few months. And most of the other dates were fine, with nice guys, where we just didn't click. I think it's about as good a way to meet people as any - it's just a hard thing overall. |
A Big Scam Reviewer: Anonymous 06-29-2005 There are many fake ads and the women I have met all have serious relationship issues. When you try to send out emails, the system either breaks down or says you have reached your maximum. |
Decent Guys Reviewer: Anonymous 06-17-2005 Generally I found that the men I met were decent guys who did not have "great expectations" on the second date. I did find that by e-mailing several times before meeting the person, it helped weed out the weirdos. |
Matches were scary Reviewer: Anonymous 06-03-2005 There are approximately 30 men in the age range I have entered and most of them are pretty scary. I have been on 6 dates, each worse than the last. Don't tell me you are 48 and accuse me of being judgemental when a 65 year old man shows up for the date. Don't send me a picture where you look approximately 225 lbs. and show up weighing more than 450. What do these men hope to accomplish? The best was a guy who lied about his age by 6 years (said he was 48 and was 55) saying he didn't want to date women in their 50's - what makes him think I want to date men in their '50's? |
Awful Reviewer: Anonymous 05-28-2005 This site is terrible. The customer service is dirt poor, the matching schemes are inaccurate, and the site organization has little or no cohesion. |
Focus on making Money Reviewer: Anonymous 05-13-2005 All Jdate cares about is making money. People like us give them money, and yet they provide a super slow website with a horrible layout. Their search options suck. I have met a few woman from the site and admit they were human. Some of them even resembled their online photos. But they didn't interest me. To be realistic, you may have to talk to hundreds of people before finding one that really does it for you. |
Beautiful Jewish Women Reviewer: Anonymous 05-11-2005 Where else can you find an assortment of beautiful Jewish women? All for less than a date night. My mother loves picking them out for me and my rabbi concurs. I love it!! |
Pretty Decent Reviewer: Anonymous 05-03-2005 All in all, I’m just a guy trying to meet a fun Jewish girl. I work a lot, so I find this site to be pretty decent. I have had some horrible experiences and some fun ones. Some duds and some really fun people. I would prefer to meet someone through a friend, but since I have a date set up with someone through Jdate that seems very sweet, right now I am optimistic.

A Scam Reviewer: Anonymous 03-03-2005 I believe that JDate is a scam. If you see a really good looking woman or man on there, I guarantee you it's a fake profile. If one of these good looking people happens to email you, DO NOT SUBSCRIBE TO READ YOUR EMAIL. That is how they sucker you into taking your money. Keep in mind the adage, "if it's too good to be true, it probably is."

The Worst Reviewer: Anonymous 02-11-2005 JDATE is the worst dating site I have ever tried. The men that I have encountered were dishonest, some were married and no one looked like their photo. The service on JDATE is horrible as well. |
It's Amazing Reviewer: Anonymous 02-03-2005 I met my very beautiful girlfriend through the service. It's the best pool of women for a Jewish guy to choose from; I found that almost all the members I dated were successful, attractive and honest, though of course a few were nuts and there were situations where things just don't quite work out...but when they do, its amazing.

Jdate sucks Reviewer: Anonymous 02-03-2005 It's just a big corporate machine that collects as many people as possible and herds them towards paying membership fees every step of the way. Granted dating sites are businesses that need to earn money to survive, but when is it enough? |
Dishonest Women Reviewer: Anonymous 02-03-2005 The women on Jdate are consistently rude, lie about their age, their photos are 10 years old and their descriptions just do not fit who they really are. The fact is that there is a lack of honesty!

Not Worth It Reviewer: Anonymous 01-03-2005 JDate simply isn't worth the money, particularly if you live someplace with a small Jewish community. |
I Met My Husband Reviewer: Anonymous 06-11-2004 I had a couple of so-so dates, but then got the email of destiny... from the guy I now love. The main thing is to be yourself and be honest. It's not important to get a lot of dates, but to find the right person. This service is a godsend to people in small towns and places where there is not a big Jewish community or dating scene.

Stay Away! Reviewer: Anonymous 04-14-2004 This site is awful. I think the girls are just playing games. Even when they are the first ones to make initial contact, they never write back after you respond. Stay away from this site. |
