usually we still goes for company that are well reputable. if no, either the matching service is not working or their match schedule got problem..
imagine you pay a premium price but in the end, you get a lousy date.. its kind of frustrating you know?

Depends on someone definition of 'lousy date'. If youre a chick and you expect every dude to carry a conversation like David Letterman, then yeah its gonna be shit lousy.
Anyway, you do get interviewed before you sign up and lay down the cash. And you need to prove earning and degree, so its not pure random.

If you have a recommendation for a company with even better professional conduct, I would love to hear smile.gif .

you do understand the interview part can be fake right? all the while when you date, there is no script or pre-programmed conversation.. its up to the guy and girl to carry the flow of the date.
and their filtering part only seems professional through expensive sign up fee and so called professional advice given.. laugh.gif

Of course, if you wanna be skeptical about everything, that its all a scam. Then, nothing works in the world, tongue.gif .

The interview was referring to the consultant. Its a whole bunch of personality test, the stuff that you might get in a job interview or teambuilding shit. You get matched according to that.

Come to think of it, I should start a new agency.

Have a good roster of good looking models, get them to memorize some script to cater to a diversity of clientele from different backgraound, then give them a cut of those few k from people that sign up for dating agencies. Teach them how to get the guys hooked so that they can sign up for more premium services.

Who's with me? I probably can source a few models here and there. They get to date and get paid for it!

That's what I was afraid of. You'll never know, its too good to be true, what if they hire models to take you out? And dump you after awhile? Hehe

Trust me, that would be a very good deal for 3.5k. More like 35k.

We can go for cheap labour hire China girls and train them to speak like local girls.

When I was reading slowpoke comment, I was thinking, girls well trained in political, mainstream topic, able to hold a conversation in English.
You can't do that with some pretty farm girl.

But of course, a pretty farm girl that knows rudimentary english would still be worth a lot...man, this topic is gettin derailed.

You will be surprise if you meet some really educated PRC girls. My friend who has been working in Beijing for 6 years recently brought his PRC girlfriend colleague down to Malaysia. Her parents are some big time communist mid ranking officials. Her England is impeccable.

Anyways, you getting bored with this talk so I end here.

Ahh, no I'm not getting bored, its just went from dating agency recommendation to setting up a hostess bar , drool.gif .
No, of course there are educated PRC girl. Its the recruiting good looking and affordable employees from PRC and train them to speak decently with some IT/engineer dudes , and still make a profit, thats the part I'm skeptical off. I was thinking about the business plan. Thats why I say you cant do that with a pretty farm girl. Unless you got news for me that there's a surplus of english speaking college graduates desperate for any jobs. And I mean any.

Unless you're looking for a woman whose primary objective is seeking a marriage partner, stay away from dating agencies. People (women in particular) don't pay money in order to "meet new friends".

Here's the lowdown on speed dating. Because you only have 5 minutes with each other, it will basically be utilized in this fashion: men spend that 5 minutes selling himself, women spend that 5 minutes sizing the men up.

If this is your thing, then no harm trying.

i have a friend who took up that package but i remember he told me rm500 for 5 dates or something. Well, he said most of the girls are well educated but busy with their career. Apparently some parents send their kids details too yawn.gif

Why wanna waste 3.5k in a dating company that 90% will be no return, just spend 3.5k in the club to get hook up, the probability of getting laid is higher in the club then dating company. Just saying

This is a dating agency that is serious and not for hookups. Means ppl pay to find their soul mates and for marriage. Although..for that amount of money I don't see the value at all. Too expensive for a date arranger? I'd be better of spending my good friends makan and asking them to intro a good girl to me.

There are so many apps nowadays..tinder, hot or not, wechat..paktor. All kinda free if you can tolerate some advertising. There are some crazy ppl out there though so be careful.

My point is..I have no point as I am stoning now after a heavy meal of nasi lemak with sotong and it is digesting

OK. this is my experience. Lunch Actually is very expensive and you really wait for months and months before they call. None of my six dates -- i paid about RM1800 -- worked out. On the plus side, they are very professional. The women they introduced me to are also all working career women. Mostly English educated. On the downside, it is an expensive way to get to know women.

another agency called CSC is better. They charged me also about rm2k but I got close to 20 introductions. at least one a week. A few have become friends. The women are more Chinese educated.

My friend recently encouraged me sign up for match making company, thus I went for this Company (pls pm me if u wanto know the identity), and I was being persuaded very hard to sign up for their packages. She said their company have a pool of well qualified candidates for the match making and show me all the files.
I dun know why on the earth I’m such an idiot, under her persuasion, I spend (less than 2k) to sign up for this package.

After that, I feel regretted and ask whether I can refund since they have not started anything. Well, their answer is NO and they said they will give me calls and find me VERY GOOD CANDIDATES. So I received calls from them after few days introducing candidates, well they just spoke all the qualification and details over the phone and I asked whether they can send me the details, they said they GOT NO INTERNET.

And the qualifications of the candidates are not good at all, very different from what they shown me in office. When I said I’m not interested, she is like getting impatient and question me back. WELL, AS A CLIENT AND I HAVE PAID SO MUCH, I HAVE THE RIGHT TO SET MY PREFERENCE!

Feel like being cheated for this kind of LOUSY service, my advice is dun ever go there. Waste of my hard earned money, and I feel like want bang my head to wall now. Keep blaming and cursing myself everyday

You're quite soft aren't you? Feeling suicidal over buyers' remorse.
