The worst dating app ever
The worst dating app ever. Exclusive? NO.
IT'S A SCAM.
Astonishing really
Astonishing really. It’s no wonder the app isn’t amongst the classic well known app. It’s bottom barrel.
Even though we shouldn’t have any expectations, I mean come on, we obviously have a teeny bit, otherwise, why else would we download it?
Look, the app is NOT user friendly. It’s unlike other dating apps, it’s actually quite poor and unflattering. I can’t believe that, in order to view a message you must upgrade the profile or wait 24hrs to unlock some sh*t? What does that even mean LOL
The design and interface of the app is outdated and looks extremely unsophisticated, it’s as though a 13 year old who’s driven by tech created this app.
I’ve only been on the app for 2 days and I’ve had enough. It’s extortion on the premise of finding something meaningful. Those that manage the app, clearly do not care about the tailoring of its members. It’s absolutely a waste of time.
Inner circle is shitty
Inner circle used to be a good exclusive dating app 5 years ago. Now they just accept anyone that pays. Terrible quality of men now every average jhon is on it and the app just blocks people without a proper investigation, reason, warning, or refund you after u paid. Save your money and time it’s really useless now.
Terrible dating app
Terrible dating app. Incredibly clunky experience, terrible UX, always resets my filters, no profiles available in my city of interest and in my age range and then constantly sends me to men in Brazil. I live in Europe! I sent an email to their customer service and they told me they fixed it, but not the case. Can't remove people from my favourites, can't add some profiles to my favourites. Difficult to find even 2 profiles that interest me. Total disaster!
Discriminatory
Rejection within a split second despite meeting requirements, comes across as extremely discriminatory
Terrible dating app
Terrible dating app. Worse than Tinder and Bumble. They make it impossible to get matches and for people to talk
"No explanation for the rejection—how…
"No explanation for the rejection—how elegant of them! Is this app exclusive, or just exclusively prejudiced? Based on the reviews, it sounds less like a dating app and more like a boutique for overpriced 'companionship.' 🤔 Tragically for them, I don’t fit the bill. But don’t worry—I’ll leave a thoroughly honest review to make sure others know what they’re walking into. Good luck with your ‘business model’!"
"Exclusive or just racist?"
"Exclusive or just plain discriminatory? I heard about this dating app, subscribed, waited for approval, and—surprise—got rejected without so much as a reason. Is it because I don’t have the ‘right’ job, nationality, or skin color? Or is it that I’m not a ‘professional’ in the world’s oldest industry and just not spicy enough for their Inner Circle™ standards? 😏"
Inner Cicle is a TOTAL SCAM
Inner Cicle is a TOTAL SCAM. 95% of the women profiles are FAKE and based in Brazil, they charge you by surprise in your CREDIT CARD (I had to cancel my credit card), and you cannot CANCEL your membership because there is not way to do it.
Inner Circle is a deeply disappointing…
Inner Circle is a deeply disappointing dating app that fails to deliver on its promises of exclusivity and quality matches. The app manipulates users with flawed algorithms, imposes excessive paywalls that block meaningful communication, and retaliates against honest feedback with account suspensions. Despite being a paid service, customer support is unprofessional, and match quality is no better than free apps like Tinder. Avoid wasting your time and money on this app—it prioritizes profits over user experience.
Is Inner Circle posting fake profiles to lure customers in?
I initially signed up for the free version but you cannot see messages or who likes you. Anyone I sent personalised messages didn’t respond (since I have wondered if the profiles are fake). I paid for the premium. It’s €80 for 3 months. It promises to send five new profiles every day. This was not my experience. For several days I had no new profiles shared, and then when I got one it looked like he was just visiting the area rather than living in the city. I wrote to customer support and they offered me a free boost. However, I voiced my concern that the boost would be useless especially if there were no suitable profiles in my vicinity. I wrote several times to Customer Support to request a refund because the app does not do what it claims to do m. Frustratingly my emails were ignored. I sent a direct message to their CEO, David Vermeulen, who also ignored my request. I’m extremely disappointed as it is an expensive platform in comparison to others and it is not living up to its advertisement. It’s very misleading to claim you’ll send fresh profiles daily if they do not have sufficient matches in the pool. I would not recommend.
You can't even chat without a…
You can't even chat without a subscription, I'm a girl. Overpriced. Same people as on tinder in the city where I live. The only reason I wanted to try it because I thought it was more checked for scams and based on education. It's all tinder by now, all the same. And how do I even cancel my account.
The worse website maker ever
The worse website maker ever
Used them to made my website
But since 4 month didnt got any news about it
This site is a scam
Worst dating app!
The only app that curates the crowd. What do you get? Men of 20 to +30 years younger, who just want to get laid (11 likes). Liars and cheaters. In my age group (50s) little interest. Don't reply to messages. Probably looking at the young babes. Or too lazy to drive 1 h. Hardly any profiles to look at (130 for B+NL, often a drive of 2,5 to 3,5 hrs). Since I signed up a month ago(paid), only 2 new profiles were added! Lots of men give their phone, email, Insta so they don't have pay. Quality? No! This app is a joke! And they don't really care. Stay away!
Vague membership practises
I have been using it for years, yes, almost never got replies, but the profiles are generally beautiful, and I went to an event once. I had a decent profile but somehow they suspended my account without any reason. I'm just hoping they have a good reason and not something sketchy.
This ap is mainly for younger…people
This ap is mainly for younger professional working people .Who are looking to find someone who’s a working professional to settle down with .It has issues with payments not being transparent and it does have issues with charging incorrectly and you will not be able to get through to customer service either .I did get a few dates , but they were mainly men who were quiet a bit younger ie in their 30s I’m in my mid 40’s and were working in the the city quiet a few from overseas who’s settled in London for work in the financial services sector mostly .It’s not a site I’d trust with money and after a while I got bored of it and haven’t used it again now for two years .
best dating app
I've been on Inner Circle for more than a year and very happy with this app. As a male user, I match with the right female users and our conversations always go to next levels. I also didn't see any fake ones so far. I would strongly recommended.
Awful
Awful, don't do it. They refused to cancel my membership and issue a refund. They are thieves.
