Anthony ShapleySmooch – The free dating site
I’ve been playing around on quite a few dating sites recently and a friend of mine Hollie recommended I took a look at Smooch.
Smooch so far..
I signed up and created a profile, so far I’ve been quite impressed. Each user gets free messaging, the ability to see if messages have been read and to see who has viewed there profile. So far I’ve had two messages since yesterday! Although nothing that will turn into anything or at least I don’t think so..
Overall the features Smooch Provides for free are extremely good! On par with some other smaller dating sites. That said I’ve still had most success with Dating Direct.
So how do Services such as Smooch make money? Well interrior pages of Smooch contain Adsense which is supplied by Google. Everytime a user clicks on an advert the site earns a small amount of money. Much the same as you can see on the right hand side of this site. Please don’t just click it though.

DAZ Ive been on smooch for numerous months,and im begining to think theres no real people on this site.
Why do i think this!Simple all the adds are the same women saying they want genuine men who are looking for a relationship,but everytime i read their profile and message them,i hardly ever get a reply,most don,t even say thnxs,and most don,t even bother reading my profile.
I mean its free so surely it wouldn,t hurt to acknowledge me!!!! -

smooch is full of women who are on numerous other sites they are fussy ugly and you get ignored most of the time a lot of them are martini girls remember the old ads! anytime anyplace anywhere well that sums this site up total crap and thats what you will get if you ever manage to meet one of these beauties! and the clap!

I have on Smooch dating site and found it the worst site I have joined its more like a sex site than a dating site no wander its free the owners should be shot for setting up a sex site where all the men and women are only looking for sex
I would stay well away from this site unless you want STDs

Smooch is for timewasters and people wanting one night stands only. Its been set up for the stupid people who definitely want their antibiotics for the STDs they are bound to collect along the way..
It is all about sex. However then again so are many of the other sites. People are not truthful in life, and so they can hide behind profiles and prey on the innocent and slightly naive.
Stay away from dating websites. They are all either free and therefore down right dodgy or you have to pay, and therefore get charged exorbitant sums of money for information that you may think is correct…ie Gavin,28 6ft 3 from Sussex turns out to be Howard,28 and a dwarf…Nope stay right away ..save your cash.

too many married people it’s not a dating site its a sex site

I have been on Smooch now for sometime and wrote to so many people in the Yorkshire area but don`t seem to be getting any response not even a thanks could i please have some feed back as to why this is happening as i don`t have the same problem on any other site.

I cannot get the contact from to come up on this site when
I click on contact it just comes up with ask a question and no
form. So trying this method instead and hoping for a reply. I
cannot use the smoochable photo selection for mutual smoochables as
it just goes back to logging in when I try,so have piled up six
people who want to try me for being a mutual smoochable. -

i had to laugh at some of the comments on here, they are so
true. some people wouldnt know the truth if it came up and bit them
on the bum…lol. i too am fed up of men asking for a date, and
then askig as to whether they should bring condoms with them on the
first date. my reply to these, have been that i am no prude but if
i wanted a one night stand then i would be on a corner and get paid
for it. i only brouse the site now. i have partly given up with
dating sites. i still think that the best way to meet someone, is
when your eyes meet across a room, whether it be a bar, or a club
or in town. i am 44 now, and the only reason i have tried datig
sites is that, i didnt want to get to 64, and not having tried
it. -

the vast majority of people on smooch dont really want to actually meet anyone, they just want to send msgs back & forth. i find that 90% of the time, as soon as you ask for someones phone no. to actually TALK to them, they suddenly become “very busy at the moment”. why do they bother? probably because its free.

smooch theres too many ignorant ladies on this site ive sent countless messages on there and no one ever logs in so how are you ment to meet anyone what a waste of time

love smooch but you do need to watch out for the men who just like to play ppl

Instead of joining dating sites why not get some friends and hobbies,loners and freaks join dating sites get out more.
-
Posted On: Nov 29th, 2010 at 1:56 am
I have been on this site for quite a few years now. I have made some very good friends on here, and have met a couple of gentlemen with views of starting a relationship. Most of them either want one night stands or just be sex buddies.. My trouble is being 6ft tall and a smoker makes it very difficult. I believe that to enter a relationship you must start off as friends then let it develope into something special, 95% of the men want sex almost straight away or they just dont bother turning up…..I am a genuine female looking for a genuine man.

Nothing wrong with Smooch – Its pretty good and its FREE! Most other sites – ive triesd them – are an absolute rip off and crap,charging you for everything- I can see alot of rich people making money out of the gullible,those thieves on the pay sites make it so difficult to cancel,just this fact should be a wake up call. Re the girls on Smooch-theres all sorts – if you’re attracting slags then it says alot about yourself and is nothing to do with the site. I suspect alot of negative comments here are from competitor’s site staff – If you pay for an internet dating site then you’re an absolute fool – its a cash cow for dummies..

Smooch seems UTTERLY UTTERLY POINTLESS c**p. You have every
intention of being a polite person, you send a message and all that
and NOTHING!!! You invite them to chat and NOTHING!!! No matter
what you do you get NOTHING!!! And yet they all say they will reply
and you can get in touch with them and yet NOTHING!!! They cant
even take the trouble to look at your profile. The only women on
this site must be completely ignorant zombies that assume its
perfectly alright to be downright rude to anyone thats willing to
engage in sensible adult conversation with them. WASTE OF
TIME!!! -

I’ve been on Smooch for a while and must have messaged about 10 women, with 0 replies. Similar to Smooch is Oasis which again as others have experienced you send messages and their ‘flirts’ to who you like with not even a look at your profile. To be honest, without trying to be rude I have sent polite and thoughtful messages to somewhat overweight women, with more than 2 kids and no job who look (again trying to be polite) easily within my league as I’m not remarkable to look at, very average. So I’m glad to hear I’m not the only one who gets this cold shoulder treatment. This is the case for women much older and a bit younger, and with mutual expectations, in my case a serious relationship. I’ve had the best amount of profile views on eVow which isn’t free but you can send messages without paying (I think reading the reply costs, but I can’t tell for sure as I haven’t had any
) Plenty of Fish seems the best because it’s free for almost every feature, bar the novelty online ‘gifts’, but even then I’ve sent loads of messages, they say on average 1 in 3 get answered but it does shatter your confidence when you get 0 out of 30 messages answered!! -
Posted On: Jan 31st, 2011 at 8:20 pm
I went on Smooch and I found that I had to BEG for a message. I left it a whole week and got no messages and maybe ONE profile view. The sh.. hits the fan when you message a woman on there. You have to mind-read to get a reply, if you are lucky. You have to have a job, a car and be an all round Mr Perfection. No matter how nice and polite I came across to these “women” I found that after introducing myself and being polite I was blocked! More than twice! And I am told that I am attractive! Not by someone with bad eyesight at night and in thick fog, but I am told that I am a good looking 31 year old man.
God help you if you have a problem on the sit as the staff treat you like you are stupid. It is also run by women so they let men get away with a lot less on profiles. I have seen women on Smooch put awful things on their profiles yet I get denied saying that I would like one of my “fictional dinner guests” to be “Obi-Wan Kenobi”. Yes, VERY offensive clearly.
The women are handpicked by Smooch as they all are like robots, programmed to hate men and be ultra-hyper picky. They are all the same and react in the same way. Aside from that I will say that you get a lot for free, which ain’t too bad. But the women?! Urrgghhh! My worst nightmare come true! No wonder I became a non-religious celibate.Nick

My response to Kathy…
Us men usually find it very hard to meet women as they expect far too much and we have to do all the work, so we need all the help we can get. Personally, I do go out but I do not look for a woman. Too much like hard work I am afraid. We are not all freaks.
-
The trouble is with these sites, bad men give ALL men a bad name.
So all men are avoided by the women who, let’s be fair, can get any man they wish. So they can ignore all they like. Sad but true. -
To Colin…
I wish I got messagesfrom women wanting one night stands! But then again no, I am not that seedy or desperate. I haven’t had sex since 2004 and I am not that bothered to be honest. I just don’t get why women on Smooch say what they want and then they cvhange their mind when they get it. For example… A woman’s profile says… “I am looking for a tall, dark and handsome guy who can play the guitar”. I have been told I am handsome, I am talk and dark haired, slim and I play the guitar, yet I still get no reply from a nice message.
The women on Smooch have issues I think. -
To James Smith…
I can’t wait till I’M 58!
-
In all… I will say that for men; Smooch makes you feel ugly and worthless. No matter how cool, rich or how hansome or sexy you are. Just don’t go on Smooch!

I was on smooch for a few months they keep changing the rules they charge you for credits for silly things like to see who thinks you are smoochable but if you don’t use the credits that you paid for in two or three weeks they just take them back without giving you a refund they are constantly altering what you say without warning they just delete words or numbers addresses or anything they fancy
also they will just ban people if they don’t like what you write about yourself
in my opinion they are just out to make money on advertising (it is just a big scam) -

I have had no problems with Smooch. I can access with my bb and PS3. If having problems signing in then make a new profile and do it as a note and save it.

too many time wasters, they say they will contact you and never do, most men married and just want sex

This site is meant to offer a free dating service, however as it is not possible to join or even enter the site it is of little use and not fit for purpose.

In my opinion blokes on Smooch are just after one thing. Met a really nice guy who turned out to be a user, was gutted cos I really liked him, met another who was on all the other free dating sites and was going on them while we were seeing each other. Thankfully I didn’t give this one the one thing he was after, and dumped him. It’s quite sad really as I am a genuine person, hoping to find romance but it seems these guys are out for one thing.

This site is rubbish as well, youl find most of the women on them are in fact on a number of other sites. They just waste your time trying to get all the information out of you they can. Alot of them spend there time getting free meals, drinks nights out then move on to the next man. If your genuine your shafted on these sites.

I was on smooch for a few months, much like most of the guys on here I sent numerous polite messages to women and got cold shouldered, a few did message back, one gave me her number, then I texted her and she’d text me back 2 days later, I sent another one and she didn’t reply, I’m like why bother giving me your number!
Then one adds me as a friend on facebook then defriends me a week later having done nothing to offend her! lol.
To be honest most of the women on smooch are not much cop, a lot are unemployed and have numerous kids and like others have said they are one various other free dating sites like oasis and freedating uk.
I mean the format of the site for free isn’t bad as you can message and chat to people, but I think most of the women on there are jaded from being on dating sites too long, some think every man who contacts them is only looking for one thing and one even accused me of only messaging her because I’d gone through all the contacts in my area and sent them the same message! Way too paranoid.
I thought stuff this I cannot be bothered anymore, I’m not that desperate I’m going to pay to go on a dating site, so have decided it’s not work the effort and dedicated myself to more positive things in life like working out and focussing on things which make me happy…not spending hours on the net chatting to anonymous people….when you analyse how much time you spend on such sites when you could be doing more construsctive things with your life it does make you think.
Fair play to those who found success on smooch, but they are in the extreme minority.
