Cancel my subscription today 03/03/2023
I will be cancelling payment from my account.
Your app has been in error since I downloaded it and will not let me cancel. I have seen the reviews of a lot of people getting scammed.

I was tricked in to subscribing with an offer of £2,50 and took over £10.
Thank you

Desired outcome: Complete cancellation of my subscription
This complaint has been resolved automatically due to user's inactivity.
Cancellation request not followed and additional charges applied
I cancelled my subscription to this on-line service on January 4, 2023 (using the company's cancellation policy - signed copy attached). However, my request for cancellation has not been actioned by the company and my Mastercard has since been charged an additional $197.70AU (on 11 February). Copy of transaction schedule attached for your records.
Desired outcome: Subscription to the service cancelled, my details removed from the web site and the additional charges re-funded to my Mastercard.

I'm in the same boat, need some advice please
I was able to get out of it, I sent proof to both the collection agency and c-date themselves of a screenshot showing me asking to cancel maybe 1 or 2 months after subscribing, I also stated I found this whole situation traumatising and that i felt trapped. I stated clearly that if they were able to show me any legal proof of termination before I make the final payment I would happily pay otherwise I'm too scared to make payment, it took 2 days for a response but they got back to me stating they weren't going to chase me for the money I owe and that they would leave me alone... hope this helps
The whole situation was longer that this but if you want me to explain step by step what I did I can do so
Hi mate im in a similar situation can you help me
Please I asked to cancel my subscription the same minute I subscribed no joke I was misled to think itd cost £2.48 but then i got charged £9.90
I emailed them about 5 times ssking to cancel my membership and my money back yet 0 response they sent me a email saying I owe them 19.90 bc i went through paypal and got £9.90 refunded i paid this off and in the email it says ‘The automatic renewal of your subscription has already been cancelled’ yet i don’t believe them and expect them to charge me 39.90 in a montjs time
First, don’t worry. If you’ve not already done so, email C-date to cancel your account. They will try to keep taking money but I ended up closing my bank account. The payment is something called a Continuous Payment Authority. Don’t pay anything. You will get letters from debt collectors who will quickly pass this to a solicitor. This is a scare tactic to get you to pay. They will not take you to court because if they do, they will have to explain how you owe money. When you get the debt collection letter, ignore it. When you get a solicitor letter you should reply. I will attach copies of letters I sent to help you just change the information to fit. You also need to file a complaint with the European consumer centre [protected]. The whole process will feel like a nightmare but don’t worry. Just remember, don’t pay because they can’t collect.

Hello, any follow ups? Did your account finally get cancelled? I've received letters from debt collectors and don't know what to do
Scam won't let you cancel . Overchargeing
Scam company . Stealing money . Don't let you cancel . Impossible to cancel as there is no link when the say that you cancel through link . Tried emailing with automatic reply saying your on a list we will get back to you have a nice day . Which they don't because they are a scam and just want to steal money and not let you go. No good reviews as just a complete scam.
Desired outcome: Account to be cancelled . And stop being held. Payments cancelled.

C-date.com
C-date fraudulently asked to subscribe for a service which was £10 a month only to somewhere within the fine prints add that my subscription would be automatically renewed at £49. Their site is full of fake profiles which was of no use to me that I barely went on the site 2days after my subscription.
C-date fraudulently attempted to debit me of £49 which I did not have in my account and they are threatening to sue me.
I only went on their review to realise they have been taking advantage of people since 2018 and I wonder why they are still allowed considering their reputation.
The people behind this app should all be prosecuted for fraudulent activities.
Desired outcome: Legal actions should be taken against them to stop this fraud

Cancellation of my subscription
C-date is a loot, they dont have any cancellation link or any other such provision, I did cancelled my subsription by sending them letter as it was meant to be and yet it is not cancelled and now they are threatening to send recovery agents and take legal actions, I want my subsription cancelled asap and I dont need your fake services, its a scam, I dont mind doin it legally.

I'm sure they are also the owner of whatever pseudo agency they would be sending to people. They are crooks and should all be indicted.
Same challenge I have. Some entity have perfected a scam that has been ripping off the populace for over 5yrs now and nothing has been done about it. They should be charged for fraud.
Yea indeed….it is unbelieveable though how a country like UK is allowing such fraud.
something needsto be done against this platform and the worst part is they have the nerve to send you email saying legal actions will be taken and threaten by sending some people on your door.
Hello Zabir, I'm in the same situation, debt collectors have sent letters to my house, did you ever get out of this [censored] or are you still trapped in this? How do we get out of this?

I am being hounded for £438 for signing up to a dating site called ‘C date’ that I now realise is scam. I have since been sent legal letters asking for payment from lawyers Themys & [censored].
I attempted to cancel my subscription immediately after realising but there wasn’t an option to do this so I cancelled my card/ banking details when I realised so I wasn’t charged.
Desired outcome: At best I do not want to pay ore than £50 to end this nightmare
This complaint in my eyes still remains open.
Still waiting for satisfactory reply.
I have forwarded C-Date with a statement from my solicitors who have described them as a bunch off chancers
Hi - I am still waiting for a response.
Could you please update me as to what is actually happening.
Just received an unhelpful email from the collections agency asking for confirmation of my full name, email address and the credit card number used to make payments.
I had to explain i tried numerous times to cancel my membership in January 2022 through the help desk (where no one picked up calls) and eventually had to cancel my credit card. How many of us can remember card numbers of expired credit cards.
So far C-Date have failed to investigate this outlandish billing. Surely they can look into last login dates?
I am pretty sure i have billed for over 12 months off non usage plus the typical charges from the collection agency of £25 per communication.
Can you please investigate? As this really is beggining to affect my health and mental well being.
Hi - can we please resolve this ASAP as it beginning to stress me out.
Hi - can we please resolve this ASAP as this is beginning to stress me out.
I am being 'hounded' for £438 outstanding payments for a site i only used for a couple off months and then tried un-successfully to cancel my membership. Where payments were automatically deducted even though i never subsequently used the site.
Ultimately I had to close my credit card account details to prevent payments being extracted from ca end of February 2022. I have subsequently been charged for over 12 months with added surcharges for this scam.
I have tried emailing the company at cs@c-date but have had no response back

Cancellation of c date membership

And like the others you are threatening me with action. I want you to cancel my account and stop scamming me and others and then try to be bullies with threats of action.
Desired outcome: Drop your threats and cancel my account

C-date dating app scam
Hi, for 3 consecutive months now, I've made attempts to cancel my subscription with this app, only for it to fail everytime, the link does not work and the only option is to keep paying them money to the tune of £39.50 per month, there is no customer support or contact email to resolve any issue, I have been forced to cancel my repeat payments via PayPal in order for payments to cease being made to this blatant scam of a site, all emails(via PayPal) to them so far have not been replied to, they are now threatening legal action because payments are cancelled, i just want to cancel my membership and repeat payments for a service i no longer require or need, payments were made on 27th of November, December and now again in January, i attempted to cancel membership and payments as required before each of these dates but the link was inoperable every time, resulting in more money being paid to them for a service i no longer require, a refund would be good too but membership cancellation is an absolute requirement, i expect this to be resolved asap, regards David Bourne
Desired outcome: Membership cancellation Bare minimum, refund desired
I see C-Date have been active since my post, no surprise they have chosen wilful ignorance, just as you have with all communication so far, i will try one more time to contact you with all requested information minus the option to take my beloved money you are so desperate to get your hands on. I only wish to cancel my membership and despite your statements in the T&C's that you make it as easy as possible, I find the opposite to be true, as does everyone here at this complaints site. You purposely mislead your users and only want money with zero legitimate options to cancel. No statement about future costs are given when signing up and you jokers then request a wet signature, which is not a legitimate statement, as no wet signature was used to sign up with you, you then give a defective link to send the stated request for a paper cancellation with a wet signature, the sheer audacity of your business model is as astounding as your ignorance of communication attempts. If my membership isn't cancelled before your stated cutoff date on 2.2.23 and you use your bully boy tactics of employing debt collectors, then I very much look forward to seeing you in court.

Dating site
I signed up to C-date and within the first two weeks I realized this site was very poor and no one replied to any messages other than fake profiles. I decided before canceling to e-mail them and got nothing back, so went to cancel and was unable to - the link they said should be there was not. This seems to be the case with other people - check out trust pilot, where this site is full of other people saying this is a scam.
I ended up getting stung for another payment of £39.90 which I used chargeback to get the money back and hoped that would be the end of it.
I am now being chased by a debt collection agency in Luxembourg for £196.32 which is now getting scary.
I am not sure where to turn and would hate to pay as they have made it very hard to cancel but I also worry about this being a scam and the money going to possible criminal activity.
Any help would be appreciated.
Desired outcome: I would like the case dropped - I accept the first £9.90 has been lost as I did use the service but I am not happy paying anything more.
I haven't e-mailed "recently" but I have e-mailed and explained my case and situation and still you can sent the Debt collectors after me. This case was clearly something which could have been resolved easily and shouldn't have needed debt collectors. The fact that there are many other people with the same problem highlights the problem is not with the individual users but the site itself.
Simple solution - make the cancelation process as easy as the sign up process and this problem would go away, however it appears this set up has been created to catch people out and that is very poor indeed.
I have tried to deal with both yourselves and the collection company and neither of you are taking any notice or looking at this objectively.
I appreciate you refuse to post anything here but it does highlight there is no interest in a mutual resolution.
If C-date don't want to resolve this then I will make my next and final post containing all the evidence I have public as there are others who might find what I have useful.
I have tried to e-mail you directly but you don't help. Please can you respond via feed so we can resolve the issue?
I have already contacted you through this address and you did nothing except get a debt collection agency on to me. I am really not in a good place having been made redundant and then hit with a £200 bill because you made it difficult to cancel. I am also dealing with a very sick family member which is really heart breaking, so you can understand this needs to be sorted.
I have been speaking with Trading standards in the UK who are happy to help me put my case together if you wish to take this to court. They have advised me that I can argue this under the Misleading and aggressive commercial practices 2014.
I have enough screenshots to confirm this as well as post from other people who have had the same problem.
I am asking this case be closed as I paid the £9.90 for the first month which was absolute rubbish and didn't use the service after this period.
If you can reply asap as if this does go to court Trading Standards have asked for time to fully prepare our case.
Many Thanks
Chris

Dating web site
I am being hounded for £273.05 for signing up to a dating site called ‘C date’ that I realised was a scam as soon as I joined as the date said they were near Bristol where I live but then don’t seem to know anything about the place and its Geographical position amongst other alarm bells . I have since been sent legal letters asking for payment from lawyers Themys & [censored].
I attempted to cancel my subscription immediately after realising but there wasn’t an option to do this so I cancelled my card/ banking details when I realised Iso I wasn’t charged anymore for this corrupt service .
I have since found numerous similar accounts from others that have endured the same scenario.
This dating site is a complete con.
Desired outcome: For this company to cease with its intimidation and rising costs and basically escalating threats of further action.
This complaint has been resolved automatically due to user's inactivity.
Membership I didn’t want
I signed up for a one month 9.99. Nowhere did it say it was reoccurring billing and I was then changed another month at 39.99 I cancelled my PayPal as I couldn’t find anywhere to cancel on the site and I’ve now been sent a email for £49.99 for a service I have barely used and didn’t want to keep. I have tried to contact them but their website only presents with a payment required page so I can’t contact them
Desired outcome: Cancellation of membership and not paying the £49.99
This complaint has been resolved automatically due to user's inactivity.
Termination of membership
They claimed that I would have a link to cancel my account after a couple of days after I joined posted on my page, after 2 weeks of the same message I had no option but to send a letter to cancel my membership.
6 weeks later I got an email claiming that I owed them money for a second month of membership, followed by threats of legal action.
This is obviously a scam site there were no real dates on the site, just fake profiles and bots. the only way to cancel is to send a letter or a fax.
Desired outcome: I want my account cancelled, and threats of legal action stopped,

Premium membership cancellation
I just signed up for a months trial for 9.90 and then it says it is going to automatically charge me £38 per month ongoing ..
This was not advertised during signing up..
I want to cancel my premium membership straight away.. you can have the 9.90 but there is no way i will be paying £38 per month… what worries me is that i have tried to cancel and there is nowhere to cancel on the website .. i am worried its a scam..
My email login was [protected]@gmx.co.uk..
This is my cancelled request
Desired outcome: Immediate cancellation of membership

Premier membership
I signed up for the premier subscription by mistake, clicking on the wrong button. Completely by accident I have emailed, sent a letter via cancel.io posted to the headquarters. My worry is the bullying used, and the reviews. I have recently lost my father, which adds to the worry about this company. Even no answer by fax.
The fee was paid on a debit card, Monday 16th January
A beaton
Desired outcome: closure of account and understanding in a possible refund/part refund
This complaint has been resolved automatically due to user's inactivity.
Cancellation
I have now sent multiple emails over a few month period now about having my subscription cancelled, but I have had no reply at all.
Money is still being taken from my account which I have now contacted my bank to stop any future payments being made.
When I try to log onto the app it says my account is suspended and has been past onto a debt recovery team..
Absolute joke.
Desired outcome: I would like any moneys returned and any future payments stopped and confirmation of debt recovery company not on my account anymore

Premium issue value
I met the c-date yesterday and when i was trying to send mensage the app was ask me for premium so i went to see how much it was. And the price was suppost to be 149kr (15€)
And i accepted and i put my credit details and then i just went to my bank balance and noticed that cdate took from me 3576 kr (350€)
Its alot of money and that money i need to my house rent.
I sent email and nobody aswer me yet.
I need to know if there is any phone number to reach them
Desired outcome: Money back
This complaint has been resolved automatically due to user's inactivity.
They continue to chase for money after cancellation and pass made up debt to debt collector
I foolishly paid the monthly fee to try this site out.
It turned out to be just fake profiles and scammers to I deleted my account.
Then a few month later they said I owed £58 pounds as my subscription payments had failed. But I did not set up a subscription. Strange.
I replied to then saying that I had cancelled and to stop asking for money.
Then about 2 month later I get an email from a debt collection agency saying I must pay £158 or they will take proceedings further.
This is definitely a scam but I'm not sure what to do?
Desired outcome: I would like them regulated and fined for their scam / scare tactics that is immoral but probably quite profitable

C date website
Hi,
I signed up to your premium memerbership and I want to cancel as there are clearly no real female profiles on here, all that have matched so far have been scammers.
I want to delete and cancel my membership but there is no clear way to do it. By far the worst experience I have had on any dating app.
Please delete me from your system and cancel my membership!
Desired outcome: Cancel my membership
