Review: Avoid the Academic Singles scam!
I signed up for what i thought was 1 month, I thought no harm in trying, then i noticed the next day that it was the monthly rate for 12 months, but this wasnt made clear in the ad. So i lost 12 months and then i noticed they had made it a reoccurring debt, which i promptly changed.
Here we are 12 months on, ive never even used the service and they tried to debt my account and couldnt and now want to bill me for AU$264 for an additional 6 months, because they say i need to rejoin to cancel !!!!
Is there nothing that can be done about these people!
Needless to say I refuse to pay.

Mere, Im in the same boat. It gets worse, you cant apply to discontinue despite telling them to in a return email. you can apply to join online but need to apparently send them a letter in the post to apply to be removed and stop them auto renewing the service, to which they still continue to send fake spam to my account. Essentially theyre saying i need to pay the $264 to continue the next 6 months so i can cancel!
Surely this is not legal! How do we stop this? Has anyone else been actively perused by them? Or is it a bluff to make you pay?
