True Dating Arvostelua 66

I tried one of the London singles events and it was honestly so well organized. The host kept everything moving smoothly and the crowd felt friendly and open, not cliquey at all. I ended up having a couple of really good conversations that actually felt real, not forced small talk.

I went with my friend and we were both nervous at first, first singles party and all that. But the host had a great sense of humour and kept things relaxed so it never felt stiff or forced. We ended up chatting with loads of different people and honestly just had a really good night out.

Did the Saturday night singles party at the Roxy and wow… such a friendly crowd. The music was good, people were open, and it just felt easy to talk without that weird pressure. Not gonna lie I expected it to be awkward but it really wasn't.

I went to Brighton speed dating at the Park View and had a genuinely lovely evening. The host made everyone feel welcome straight away and the venue had that cozy relaxed vibe which helped calm the nerves. I actually met some really interesting people and left feeling excited for the next one.

The single party was great,Shane at Penta Reading helped me overcome my nerves I’ll be returning 100%

The night was slow and Shane was showing me to the Ladies which changed my luck I’m glad I went to the Single party at Penta hotel Reading see you again at the next event Shane!

Had a great night and the host Shane from penta hotel reading was very professional at the singles party and I will be attending again as long as he is working there.

I attended the singles event held at the Penta Hotel in Reading and I can honestly say what an enjoyable evening it was. Myself & my friends were nervous as we’d never been to anything like this before,but the host Shane made everyone feel so relaxed & comfortable,we will definitely attend more singles evenings as we all really enjoyed it. Thanks Shane.

Great night. Thanks Shane for organising local at Penta

Shane- Penta Hotel,
Brilliant service for this gentelman, professional, reliable and went above and beyond to make sure everthing was perfect.
Highly recommend to anyone looking for top-quality service,

The standup singles party in south Kensington was such a cleaver idea. Comedy first, then chatting after, which made everything feel natural instead of forced. I was laughing half the night and somehow ended up having proper conversations too. Way better than the usual cringey dating setups.

I went to the shoreditch event for my first ever speed dating thing and I was kinda nervous... but it was actually really well organised and the crowd surprised me in a good way. Didn't feel awkward like I imagined. I'd definitely book another one.

Went along to True Dating Brighton speed dating at The Park View and had such a great evening! The host Keith made everyone feel welcome and it was really easy to chat with people. The venue felt cozy and relaxed, which made meeting new people a lot less awkward. I actually met some really interesting people and I’m looking forward to the next one. Definitely recommend especially if you’re new people in Brighton and want to meet people.

I am very disappointed with the service. It seems to me that the hosts try to attract more men by advertising that there are only a few tickets left for males and that tickets for women are sold out. However, when I arrived, there were 17 women and only 6 men. This is the second time this has happened.
On top of that, they advertised a complimentary glass of wine on arrival, but they only had three bottles available. By the time I arrived, there was no wine left.
If I could, I would give 0 stars.

1st time speed dating or trying any dating event. Picked True Dating due to location in Shoreditch and was surprised both how well it was run and tbh the quality of people there. It wasn’t half as bad as I thought it might be. Granted I don’t have anything to compare too but I’d use True Dating again based on this experience.

Wow. So I went to the Folly tonight for a singles mixer. The ratio wasn't the best (more men than women for sure) but all in all the girls were nice and the night itself was ok. Until towards the end of the night I approached two girls and one guy and introduced myself politely. The guy seemed extremely aggressive and asked me "what do you have to contribute to the conversation about love" and gave me that look of 'go away'. Little did I know at the time, but he was the actual FOUNDER of the company!! (Or at least claimed to be and had been telling people he was). For reference, a very tall guy, probs 6ft 4 and slim.

Anyway, I kind of let it slide and just thought he was some insecure guy. A group of us then went to a bar opposite and he happened to be there with the two girls along with a few others from the night. I went over and started talking to them, building up some nice rapport and the same guy immediately said "have you been to Texas". I said no. Then, "have you been to LA" to which I also replied no. He then said, well these girls won't be interested in you unless your'e well travelled, have money etc etc. I told him to relax, still having no idea he was the actual founder of True Dates and one of the girls called him a jerk. When they left he also whipsered something into one of the girls ears. I heard him say, "If I was single...." and missed the rest but you don't have to be Einstein to work the rest out. Clearly he didn't want me to be talking to these girls, at the bar we went to or the actual event.

The two girls left shortly after and so I brought it up with him. Now I'm not a shy guy and very comfortabale talking to women, but I imagine there's many shy guys that go to these events looking to meet somone. IMAGINE someone, let alone the founder of the company, telling someone with low confidence/self steem that two girls probably weren't going to be into them. He then had the audacity after bringing it up with him to tell me that he was "doing me a favour" and that he tells loads of guys the same thing when he knows a girl isn't interested. I literally couldn't believe that this was the founder of the company behaving this appallingly, and the fact he has a girlfriend. He looked worried when I told him before leaving that I would leave a review, so I would bet that if there are investors onboard or other colleagues, this issue has come up before. In fact, if you select 1 star reviews on here and scroll down to the 3rd October 2024, you'll see a review from Chris describing the host as quite creepy. Wouldn't surprise me at all if this is the same person.

Obviously if he replies to this, he is going to say this is completely fabricated and none of this is true, or that is true and that I was just offended the two girls didn't like me or some other BS. But take my word for it, a horrible, nasty guy that should absolutely not be part of a company that's trying to match make and bring people together.

**Edit in answer to the response to this (Trust Pilot doesn't have a reply feature)**

So as you can see, as I thought, we got BS answer from the host which I will respond to accordingly.

1. Absolute nonsense. I only approached the two girls at the end and the issue started from the hosts initial comment asking what I had to contribute to the conversation. The two girls went to the bar across the road and I went there later with another group from the event. When the girls left, one of them touched my shoulder as if to say, 'sorry about that guy' and also think about it, why would they call HIM a jerk if I was the problem. I wasn't intense at all and would consider myself reasonably intuitive. The conversation was light and playful and the only person making it intense was the hosts questions to me. Notice how he hasn't denied the questions he asked in the review.

2. Enough with the 'girls safety' narrative. They were absolutely fine and may I remind everyone again, it was YOU they called a jerk, not me. Whether they were interested or not, that is not the point. It is not your job to ask aggressive questions like you did to try a belittle the guy, and may I remind you that after one of them called you a jerk, quite early into the conversation, I went and talked to some other people, so the idea that I wouldn't leave them alone is quite frankly silly.

3. I pray your girlfriend reads this, and you know deep down this is true, so do with that what you will.

4. No lies here, all the truth and you know it :) To be honest I wrote the review because I reckon others on your team will read this and be like "here we go again". I'd be extremely surprised if this is the first time you've acted this way. And yes it was a 15 min argument of which at one point you conceded you were in the wrong, but then reverted back to not accepting it again.

Edit:

"Concerns were raised" yet they called you a jerk. Nothing was raised. Nice try. Disgusting behaviour.

The Stand-Up Singles Party in South Kensington was brilliant — the comedy acts were hilarious and it made mingling afterwards super easy. It’s such a unique idea and way better than typical cringy dating nights. True Dating really nailed it!
