I have been on RLM now for about 14 months. I will start with the positive then go to the negative points.
There are a tremendous amount of beautiful ladies on this site. I have been bombarded with letters and chat requests by 18-50 year old women. The younger ladies don't seem to care that I am 57 and when I ask them about it. They say that love knows no age or that they don't care of my age. It really does seem like a set up. I have been to Ukraine and have had some bad experiences but I have had some good ones too. I do know that the ladies over there do not really want to be with a man who is 10 years older than her. So these 21 year old girls must be being paid to do this.
The ladies are beautiful and seem sincere. Of course when you ask them about being paid they deny it. But there have been plenty of experiences where the girl would write me sexual letters that were of medium length but after they hook you, they refuse to write letters and will only wish to do chat.
Depending on the amount of credits that a man buys, chat can be anywhere from .40 -.60 cents per minute, which in my mind is ridiculous. I could call a girl and speak to her on the phone for 1/10th the cost. Letters are reasonably priced compared to other sites. If you buy the platinum subscription, you get 30 letters which amounts to $ 1.67 per letter. Other sites are $6 - 10 per letter. Some sites charge you to open and read the letter. All in all, most Russian/Ukrainian sites are very high on themselves and a rip off. Letter wise, this site is fair. My main complaint is chat costs. .40 - .60 per minute is high, if you add video and it becomes video chat, it doubles the cost .80 - 1.20 per minute.
Their chat software (chat window) is really good about robbing you of credits and the customer service won't refund even if there is a mistake on their side. For instance, a lady does a chat request. If you answer her an hour later, even though she is most likely not paying attention, off writing another letter or chatting with another man, the site takes 2 credits (there is a 2 credit minimum, which in my mind is BS). The rule is that there has to be a 2 way chat conversation. But it is not true. As long as she started the chat and you answer her, it doesn't matter if you actually chatted with her, they will take your 2 credits. It is wrong and it is a way for the site to steal from you.
The site over all is good, very interactive, but the charges are ridiculously expensive for chat. The ladies will always try to get you into chat, no matter if you are writing lots of letters or not.
Overall, I have to say I am sorry I came here. 14 months and a lot of money and I have not even paid the $50 background check yet, which I am sure it is a joke. Then you pay $40 for each lady you wish to meet and I might add there is no guarantee she is going to really meet you. The site calls this an Intimacy Request. They claim you then can have open communication with the ladies but still charge you for the letters. The ladies will refuse to leave the site even though you now have each other's email addresses. The ladies absolutely will not give you their home addresses and in most cases will not give you their phone numbers. Many will not even give an email address because they want you to continue paying through the site.
Then the ladies are told that they should only meet you at the local agency, which is going to charge you another $50 for the meeting. So now you have paid 2 different agencies $90 for the exact same thing. Then you will pay for an interpreter and the charges go on and on. It is a royal scam.
I have met some nice ladies here, I will admit. Are they for real? I am not sure because I have not met them in person. They are on chat and video, so they are real women but will they really meet you? Are they being paid to be there? I am sure some of them are.
The reason I joined this site is because in the beginning I spoke to one of the web hostesses who told me that I would be able to have open communication with the ladies after I spent 1000 credits (that doesn't include the $50 month subscription fee). I believed her, but then found out later that it wasn't true at all. After 1000 credits spent, you can do an intimacy request for $40 but never truly get open communication and you will always continue to pay for chat and letters. The web hostess didn't work there more than a week after I spoke to her so I was given false information.
The site is absolutely setup to take your money. The women pay nothing to be there and in fact, some of them are being paid. I can't prove it, but it is obvious. Some of the ladies do show their naked bodies and I do mean they show everything on webcam. It is somewhat of a porno site designed to suck men into their billing claws.
There has to be a better way to meet a woman because this site is not the way. I have been on other Russian/Ukrainian sites, and it is always the same, pay pay pay.
NO !
In summary, I would not recommend Russian Love Match to a friend.
