SeniorsDatingAustralia.com review

After skipping the subscription payment offers, and entering the main page of SeniorsDatingAustralia.com, we already found a message in our inbox. One of the employees sent us a message and wanted us to enter more personal information, as well as photos of ourselves. When we tried to chat with someone, we noticed that it is not possible to communicate, until you have uploaded a photo.

The bad thing about this is that, as we found in the Terms and Conditions, they are using your photos for other websites. This is surely not what someone wants if he, or she, is registering for a dating platform. No one wants to see their photos used for advertising on another dating platform run by FBM Online Connections LTD, from Greater London, in the UK. For this reason, this site is clearly a scam.

Excerpt from the Terms & Conditions (as of 25/09/2023)

You also authorize the Company to post any and all photographs or videos uploaded by you throughout the Site and other associated websites which feature other members of the Service but may be under a different Site and/or Service name(s). By uploading the video(s), you certify that you have the rights on the video(s) and you’re aware that other users might download it.

Please note that WE USE AN AUTOMATIC RE-BILL CYCLE ACCORDING TO YOUR SELECTED PAYMENT OPTION. When you purchase a one-month or shorter subscription to the Site, unless you cancel such membership at least twenty-four (24) hours prior to its expiration, your subscription will automatically renew at the then current monthly subscription rate. If you purchase a three month or longer subscription to the Site, unless you cancel such membership at least twenty-four (24) hours prior to its expiration, your subscription will automatically renew.

Subscription and auto-renewal

Another point that made us suspicious about the dating platform SeniorsDatingAustralia.com was that, as we can read in the Terms and Conditions, they operate an automatic re-billing cycle. As we have seen during registration, with the 3 membership types of a 5-day trial, 1-month and 3-month subscription option, they offer a 24-hour cancellation. Theoretically, this is enough time to cancel a subscription. The tricky point is that we need to request the cancellation. We can send our concerns through our profile settings, but we are dependent on their customer support.

Most likely we never get an answer back, or at least, not in time. The provider is charging us frequently and probably will not answer any request we have sent. The only thing we can do to escape this cycle is to block our credit card. So, you can spend a lot of energy and money on something which is clearly a rip-off. Based on negative experiences with the operator, and bad reviews on the internet, this is what we can expect from this platform. This is clearly not the experience someone wants to have if they register for a dating platform.
