“So many matches”

Natalie g.
10/7/23

Love the fact that I had so many matches and options right away. It keeps you engaged not boring. Love the features and ease of use.

Top Critical Review

“Corrupt at every level”

Jason W.
4/2/24

Women don't want to meet like on Seek4Match And other legit platforms. I have never had an issue with ladies there. I thought Zoosk would be a similar site, but it turned out to be completely opposite: full of scam, corrupt at every level, with exuberant costs - a daylight robbery. There are bunch of scammers using other people's pics to fleece gullible men out of their money via endless chatting.

In the site, you can't "remove" people from your potential dating list, and they will keep appearing no matter what you do.
This is the most useless site I've ever used!

At first, I didn't enjoy the multiple ways to navigate. It feels like a video game. The worst part though are the many fake profiles. There are also a bunch of really old profiles and inactive ones.

This is the second time I have been on zoosk and I guess shame on me. They are not helpful the same picture circulate over and over and over again and then they give you these men that live far away and there's only a few that are close if they are even real.
I was not able to find where you could put in what you want your distance to be and again the same picture cycle over and over and over that say they viewed you and there's no looking at someone unless I guess you go visible and you have to pay for that extra.Zoosk is not worth your money.

Greetings, I have been on this site for about a month and have spent plenty of $$$$$$$ almost all the women seem to be here for a paycheck? Not a dateTheir agenda pledges attractive gains, yet it's merely an illusion.

I've gotten my money back and that was only way I could go about it. I got help from. (I USED THEIR WEBSITE URL AS MY DISPLAY NAME ON THIS REVIEW INCASE YOU NEED HELP AND WANT TO REACH OUT TO THEM).

Note: I did this because of the strict policy over here and honestly i just want to help as many people as possible to get their money back.

I don't have much experience with online dating, but this seems like a scam. It's free to sign up and make a profile, but when you try to look at messages, you have to pay. Also, there are coins you can buy to make yourself more visible to other users. It just seems kind of sketchy overall. Like if you made an account with no information they would send you fake messages hoping your curiosity would get you to pay for the subscription to read them.

Tip for consumers:
I really think it's a scam.

Zoosk is designed to parasite money from lonely people. You pay to play. But you play the game you can never win. So it's a very cruel game, targeting your money. You interact with bots or staff members. They pretend to be looking for love but you will never meet them in flesh. So don't let them just take your hard-earned money!

I have been subscribed to zoosk and my subscription ends in November 2023. I went to the site today and had 4 messages, but when i wanted to read them i got a message saying that i need to subscribe to read them. They are not a very honest organization. I am so disappointed in Zoosk. I will not refer them to my friends. I know they don't care, because they got my money anyway.

It was most disappointing and disgusting experience. It's a total waste of time. Dishonesty, rudeness, and fake are three main characteristics of 99% men looking for money or hookups. Misleading information, lousy website, terrible company. They should be put out of business. They actually emotionally hurt people! People need to stay away from this website.

They will NEVER let you delete your account! You can log back in at any time through google or facebook. They will forever keep you in their database. NOT cool!

With nary an explanation beyond the vague accusattion that I violated their terms of service, my newly created account on the site was banned, and there was absolutely no recourse for recovery.

As far as I can tell, the website is either discriminating against me for an unknown reason, or there was an administrative error that they are unwilling to own up to.

A good online dating site should be easy to get registered on, and also easy to navigate people's profiles and choose who to make friends with. Before I got to know about zoosk, I had terrible experiences on many online dating sites! However, with Zoosk I am really having a great time meeting real and nice people online that have become really close friends. The zoosk support system are just simply amazing. I recommend them to you if you are like me who have little or no time to socialize physically. You will definitely love it

Tip for consumers:
My advice is that you make sure you are chatting with a real person before committing yourself. Most people on Zoosk are real, but there are still few fake people there. So be careful

Having glanced through some of the negative reviews, I can only echo their complaints. You get the feeling most accounts on here are fake. But what is maddening is that I know Zoosk could do something about it and they don't. They won't let you search by verified accounts. They do nothing for IP location tracking. After you've looked at enough profile pictures, you realize most of them are fake and claim they live in these remote places no one knows about. I wish I felt like these reviews would force their hand.

Was recently scammed on Zoosk by a very sophisticated operation. When I tried to contact Zoosk customer service their number was always off-line! When I emailed a detailed report on what happened to me my email came back undelivered. This site is as big a scam as the scammers that prey on its members. Would stay away from this site! Untrustworthy and no customer service help or follow up! A 0 out of 10 rating!

The amount of fake profiles and fake photos are ridiculous. The site puts people in your views to make you think they are looking at you when they are not. They send you messages saying you have messages, to get you to renew, when you don't. They have what they say are live singles ready to chat at the top of the search page, but the women look like hookers. Don't waste your money!

Zoosk is an absolute time-waster and money-grubber focused on making it impossible for you to cancel your membership. At best it can be just the place where you can hook up a prostitute (if you are lucky, she will show up).

Signed up for a month with reply paid to try the site. Ten 'women' profiles showed as viewed my profile. I responded to two. No response back. Placed a block on all 10 profiles. Next morning, same 10 profiles shown as having viewed my profile.
Is the site admin playing games with people? Site admin pretending to own fake profiles to draw men to the site? I wonder how many females profiles are genuine and how many created by the site to look like a successful site.

This app is so horrible. It's free to download and make an account but you have to pay to talk to people. Ads even pop up out of nowhere. There is no point of signing up for this. There are better dating apps that you don't have to pay to talk to people. I tried to filter my search by looking for older men but it only went to 42. This app is horrible and I don't recommend.

Tip for consumers:
Do not use this site!!!

I've been on many dating sites, and this is by far the best one. There seems to be more people on this site, and sent you verify the identity, there are less scammers and you feel more safe. I met someone on here and I'm excited to see where it's going to go

Tried this app so far for a week, it has a lot of bugs, not very stable, but the worst is the customer service,and response, they manipulate the app from within. You pay for a subscription,and if someone likes you you have to pay again to see who it is, now I realize why most customers are not subscirlbers. Most people are from out of the area….tried to get a refund so I can remove myself. Don't waist your money, use it for free is the only option now

Use it free, don’t waste your money

I wouldn't recommend this site. My pics were taken down and I had everything covered but women with huge boobs and nipples showing were allowed to post their pics. I tried several times to get my photo's approved but was rejected. Don't waste your money. There are legitimate sites out there so much better than this one. My pics were tasteful and PG rated while they allowed grotesque women to flaunt their fake assets.

Utter drivel! Don't waste your time on Zoosk! They may have some real profiles, but I haven't met any of them. I met dozens of scammers. There is no profile verification or background check.
