Melbourne Speed Dating
2 reviews
Poorly organised and not good value for money – There's a reason this company doesn't have any google page, as it's almost impossible to provide them a review. I attended an event with them recently which had a lot more men than women booked in, and spent my first 6 dates standing on my own. the host was very disorganised and rushed, and took nearly 20 minutes to check me in, despite arriving 10 minutes ahead of the start time. She snapped at one of the other guys when he asked what time it was starting, saying 'it's already started,m just wait and I'll get to you!' There's no way to tell when the next date starts, and speaking to some of the girls who attended, they told me they had been given free tickets to fill in at the last minute. Venue was nice, but extremely loud and crowded, and I felt like I was in a goldfish bowl as there were a number of members of the public sitting right next to me on some dates. Some dates I timed at 2 minutes, others were 6 minutes. There are other companies who provide much better value for money in Melbourne, they may be a bit pricier but their organisation is seamless, and includes a drink or two in the price - so I probably spent just as much as I would have going to one of their events. Definitely a case of 'you get what you pay for', and I won't be going back.
One of the Most Financially Motivated Useless Events I Have Ever Attended – This business operates under two names: Speed Dating Melbourne and SocialEventsMelbourne. There is no proper website or platform to leave a review, which raises questions about its legitimacy. The events they host are poorly organized for closer to 40-dollar admission fee and are often held in noisy, cramped, and unclean venues. The host prioritizes profit over the quality of the event and does not properly match participants. The host also creates a false sense of scarcity by claiming that tickets are sold out, only to make them available again at a higher price. I have concerns about the legitimacy of some of the attendees and would not recommend this business.
