Singles 365 review

www.singles365.com

Singles365 is a UK-based online site company that has been bringing couples together since 2003. As part of a white label dating company members benefit from a large pool of members recruited from a large number of other UK dating sites as well as Singles 365.

The Good: Easy registration and login via Facebook • Freephone support line • All profiles checked manually for authenticity

The Bad: No smart phone application

Profile Creation

If you are a Facebook user then registration is very quick as the site can take several details from your Facebook profile to get you up and running and logged in. You also have the option to create an account in the traditional way if you don't wish to use Facebook Connect.

Search Style

Singles 365 offers a good basic search system that returns lots of profiles for various criteria. You cannot however conduct an advanced search on real specifics such as hair colour, height etc. We found good levels of profiles were returned for most searches.

Halo Score

Singles 365 offers free telephone support for members and non members which raises the Halo score for this site as it adds an element of trust. We can't however award full marks as this site does not publish when each user was last online on their profile. (It's worth noting that this is still a rare feature in UK dating.) We do like the fact that users are able to cancel via the site without having to phone or email - good halo!

Communications Summary

Communication is good and options include direct messaging and virtual 'winks' between members. You can also send what are called "icebreaker messages" as a non-paying member. However you'll have to pay if you want to read the response.

Many of the links on our website take you to your destination via a special re-direct.
