Great Expectations Dating Service
Ripoff

A few years ago, I opened my mail to discover an advertisement from Great Expectations. I filled out the questionairre and went in to meet with the sales rep.

The sales rep went on and on about how they were having a hard time finding good women to join. She told me that they had an overabundance of male clients, and that the only women who were joining were single parents or uneducated, whereas the men were looking for someone like me - well educated and not yet a parent. She told me that most of the men were doctors and lawyers and very well educated. (Total BS, but I was vulnerable and fell for it.)

I foolishly signed up and paid the $1200 fee. (wow). I am ashamed to even admit this!

Anyway, after I signed the contract, they sent me home with an appointment to come back in three days for my orientation.

(As it turns out, they make you wait three days before visiting the center because they don't want you to break your contract, and since legally, you have three days...) Of course, I didn't know that then.

I went in a few days later for my orientation. What a joke! I was taken in to their library, and shown the binders full of men. There were maybe fifteen binders full of men, and about fifty binders full of women!!! The only clients at the center were women!

Anyway, I was disappointed, but then I thought, "Hey - I only need ONE!) So I looked through the binders. The men were nothing like what had been represented to me.

I foolishly believed the salesman's claims, and totally fell for this. I wrote several letters to complain, but didn't get anywhere. I just want to share my experiences and prevent someone else from making the same mistake.

(By the way, I am no happily married to an incredible man who I met through a FREE dating service on line!)
