JollyRomance Arvostelua 

Another con, fake profiles fishing for money. A rip off, avoid!

UPDATE 2024
I have been asked to retract my review, see the above - posted 30/08/2020. Clearly the company FOUR YEARS AFTER POSTING THE REVIEW has now seen fit to complain to Trustpilot and it is attempting to defame ME by inferring that my experience is not valid and as such, by default implies my integrity be called into question. I take great offence to this slur. I assure you that I have better things to do with my precious time than to produce spurious reviews.

I WILL NOT RETRACT my original statement as my personal experience is exactly as I previously stated. I have no incentive to lie, I DO NOT lie.

If Trustpilot chooses to endorse this bunch of shysters operating in this instance as "Jollyromance" then I will never be able to have faith in the veracity of this platform at any point in the future. Enabling such companies as "Jollyromance" defeats the purpose of Trustpilot does it not?

Trustpilot can do its own research into this front company and its questionable subsidiaries, as did I in 2020. Unless Trustpilot wishes to pay me for my valuable time in order to collate the necessary evidence, I shall insist that Trustpilot does its own homework.

Bloody cheek!

How I wish, I would've done more research, before joining JollyRomance!
As with most other men who stumbled across the site, I was in a bad state, after getting out of a 4 year relationship, and was looking for something "safe". I was looking to meet someone, but wasn't actually wanting to do it face to face, at the time. While on a social media site, the ad for their dating site came on, and of course, after answering a few questions, I was told they had the right site for me to find love. Enter JollyRomance... thousands of beautiful women, all looking for love, because their men do not treat them right, or beat them, and don't respect them, so they are dying to find a man in a foreign country, for true love. Of course, they have it down to a science. You recieve many messages on your wall, and many letters in your inbox, so many in fact, you feel as if you have hit the jackpot! Of course, when you are heartbroken, anything that helps to take your mind off of your current state of mind, is welcomed with open arms. Thatis when I met Irina. She was from Moscow, had been in a bad relationship, and was looking for love on the site, because her "friend", had found true love there. Coincidentally, the majority of women, use the same line, that their "friend", found their true love on the site, so they decided to try it as well. After several weeks of communicating, and several thousand dollars later, I was able to request, and recieved, her personal information. (Email address) I was excited that we could finally discuss things unable to be discussed on the site, as they tend to block many words, places, names, etc. A few emails were exchanged, and then all of a sudden, her laptop broke. It would have to go in the shop, but even though the many pictures she sent me, that i paid to look at, had her in expensive clothes, furs, wearing diamond rings, and in a gorgeous apartment, there was no money for a new laptop, and the repairs were expensive, as well, but, we could keep talking on the site, because she could access the site on her phone. Isn't it amazing that the women on the site, cannot access a simple email account on their phone, but can access, and post, to Instagram, tiktok, Facebook, and VK??? After listening to her excuses, and hoping she was sincere, the laptop was finally "fixed", after several weeks. She could not bear to be without talking to me, during this whole time, so she begged me to talk to her on the site, until we could go back to email. Of course, not wanting to lose what I thought was a budding relationship, I agreed. When the laptop was fixed, it then became an issue of her not being able to afford the internet service needed to check her emails, and write me back, so back to the site we needed to go. About this time, things started to get weird. After having spent months of talking to her, & making plans, as we were to meet in April, and this was February, she began to act differently. She did not remember plans we made, details we discussed previously, and her way of conversing, was suddenly different. The more I questioned her about the change, the angrier she became. It became apparent, that it was not the same person. I wrote to support about it, and they "investigated", my concerns. Their findings were that she just had a "red day", and had forgotten a few things. One of the things she happened to forget, was that we had emailed before,and she swore up and down, that i did not have her personal information, and she had never given her permission for me to have it. I had to screenshot the acceptance mail, from the site, dated a few months prior. (That is one hell of a detail, to "forget") After that, it was not the same. She was not the woman I had spoken to for months, and the site was no help. After trying to speak to other women on the site, it became apparent that all they wanted was to keep you spending money. Random letters of love, after a few conversations, undying devotion, and a true desire to communicate further away from the site, if you would just spend the credits needed, to request their information. (3000 credits needed, and if purchasing the biggest credit packs, it equals $600 US dollars.) Needless to say. After 5 different women, and 5 different requests, with information given, every single one of their attitudes changed, when wanting to talk off the site. I heard the same, my computer is broken excuse, or that the email accounts can only be accessed on the desktop and they were never home, so it was easier to talk on the site, because they had that on their phone, and it was convenient.
Here is the kicker... I joined socialcatfish.com, and started reverse image searching their photos. I found many of them, with different names, and cities, than what was "verified" on the site, and several of them were married! Stay away from JollyRomance...IT IS A SCAM!!!

This isn't a dating app.
Its communication platform app/site.
Pay to talk.
You'll be better off going to sex cam site, more worth it.

Lockdown and lonely thus Jolly Romance provided the possibility of a permanent and happy relationship on return to normal.
How wrong I was! Some ladies on the site ARE genuinely looking for a serious and permanent relationship but MANY are not.
These are not genuine ladies, despite apparently being validated. Either the photoshopped beauties who attract numerous men, do not themselves respond to male chats - the chats are delivered by others to seduce the man to spend more and more cash on credits by boosting the ego with flattering comments and seductive responses within a few exchanges. Once the contact price is reached, contact details may received or the request is declined. If the email details are delivered to the man, " the lady" will request that the man goes back to the site to chat as her "internet is down"!!

Alternatively the lady is paid to " seduce" males to spend more on credits.

How to distinguish between the genuine lady and the fake, can be difficult. The genuine lady does not fall in love instantly and is more discreet about exchanging photos/videos and when she does they are natural, rough around the edges and not photoshopped.

Strange that many of the "fake ladies" have suffered brutality in their lives from previous husbands/ partners and have been celibate for the last 4 to 8 years and have had no recent relationships BUT are now desperate to have sex with YOU!!

Want the identities of some fakes ?
I can reveal some definite ones!

Well, let's start with that you are in a certain period of your life that you may think, well why not let's give Online Dating a go. On this journey, you come across JollyRomance.com. Full of beautiful ladies who throw themselves at you and you tell yourself I am in heaven and all these willing ladies ready to pour their hearts out to you.

This not how the story ends and I think it is time to wake up and smell the roses as I put them:

1) All the picture has been taken by professionals and edited to enhance the curves (I am really enhanced up to 50% increase) and if that is not enough Photoshopped to perfect skin. Now I don't see much problem till now well who doesn't look their best especially when you want to attract the opposite sex.

2) The reality is that they are not there to FIND LOVE. more like the after-midnight shows on TV that you want to get it on with lube and palm of your hand and all you need the distraction that your palm is the real deal. All those ladies are getting paid to send you messages and pictures of themselves well everywhere even in the pool, semi-naked or fully nude for the last part I will come to that later and for doing so, they get paid just like when you dial the 09 numbers and listing to dirty talk.

3) Most of them don't speak English either and thanks to God for the Google Translator and I know you got the gest.

4) Only registering is free, whatever else is ridiculously expensive and I really mean that here is the price list:#
Chat £ 0.50 / Minute
Sending Photo £5 / Photo
Watching a Private Photo £5 / Photo
Listing to Private Voice MSG £25 / Voice
Reading Email £5 /Email + £5 for each photo you receive in the silly emails too
Sending Email £5 / Email and if you want to attach a photo to your email or video or voice above price list
Requesting Contact number: £150 / person
Requesting face to face meeting (dating) £1000 / person

and if you think this is not enough, you can send real gifts ( Flower, iPhone iPad and so on) to a fake person 3 times the price

if you can get over the fact that this prices are ridiculous because you think who can put a price on love! let's go to the next part

5) The ladies are not interested in you what so ever all they are interested in is your hard-earned cash and I mean it in real terms. If you think you are smart enough to send your Phone number to them and pick up where you left off on WhatsApp and whatever you are in for a surprise because first of all their system recognizes the phone numbers and replaces it with beautiful ************ for the ladies that even the operator by mistake gots tempted to contact you they would be able to do so. But if you are smart enough to send your number by alphabet or foreign language alphabet, the operators (because they are not a real person) would trick you by saying that "oh my darling, what is wrong it didn't come or it is blurred why not add it to a photo and send me a photo of yourself with a number written on it) which is another trick to charge you another £5 / Photo which becomes like Auction websites that you think you have to win the silly item and someone outwit you. Well Don't

My final advice is that you feel lonely and for whatever reason, you think meeting a real person and finding love is not an option for you, why not find a local escort agency and you would get what you paid for and most importantly you help your local economy hahhaha or that is not the one for your well Always the TV is there for you just top up the phone and get a new bottle of lube becasue this website after breaking your bank account certainly would break your heart and spirit as well.

Good luck with finding your love
