Does the elitesingles app actually verify that people have the degrees they claim?

So: the elitesingles app actually verify that people have the degrees they claim. I have read a lot of contradictory takes on elitesingles and would rather hear from people who tried it. For people replying above, automated engagement bait is the whole question with elitesingles.

I am coming at this from the options here, so adjust if that changes your answer. Honestly, bot accounts was less of a problem on elitesingles than the sheer time it ate.

Things about elitesingles I have not worked out:

• Message within a day of matching — on elitesingles that window closes fast
• Give elitesingles a fortnight of daily use before calling the catfish problem a dealbreaker
• Set the radius wider than feels comfortable if the elitesingles pool near you is thin
• Check what elitesingles does about scripted messages before you upload anything you would not want indexed

Blunt answers on the elitesingles app actually verify that people have the degrees they claim preferred over polite ones.

Same experience on elitesingles: I gave it six weeks before the catfish problem got tiresome.

Honestly, the catfish problem was less of a problem on elitesingles than the sheer time it ate.

Broadly agree on elitesingles — scripted messages was what decided it for me too.

Honestly, the scam side of it was less of a problem on elitesingles than the sheer time it ate. That is my read on elitesingles, and others here clearly disagree.

Yes, and I would add that the catfish problem on elitesingles gets worse the longer you stay.

If the scam side of it's your main worry with elitesingles, test it in the first week rather than the first month.

Somebody in another elitesingles thread pointed me at Datebie and it held up better than expected on the scam side of it.

Picking up IsobelR's point about the scam side of it, that feels too harsh on elitesingles, given fake profiles is a problem across the options here rather than specific to it.

Nobody warns you that the catfish problem on elitesingles scales with how many people are online at your hours. The thing people underrate about elitesingles is how much the catfish problem depends on your own city.

People also mention datescout.site, datebound.site, ezhookups.online whenever elitesingles comes up on this board.

Disagree, because blaming the scam side of it lets you off the hook — my elitesingles results improved when my profile did. What changed my results on elitesingles was treating the catfish problem as a filtering problem rather than a platform problem. There is no version of elitesingles where scripted messages sorts itself out without you doing something.

You can work around bot accounts on elitesingles, but you have to be deliberate about it. The pattern I see with elitesingles is that scripted messages is fine early and degrades as you go. Not saying elitesingles suits everyone, but it is not the disaster this thread implies.

EvanH and I've clearly used elitesingles differently, because i will push back here, because elitesingles worked fine for me and obviously unreal accounts was never the issue.

I keep two accounts running to compare scripted messages across platforms in this space, and elitesingles sits mid-table.

I have seen ezhookups.online, souldate.site, datebound.site recommended for elitesingles, though I have not tested them properly.

Building on what Ben1989 said about elitesingles, i will push back here, because elitesingles worked fine for me and the scam side of it was never the issue. If scripted messages is your main worry with elitesingles, test it in the first week rather than the first month.

Honestly, obviously unreal accounts was less of a problem on elitesingles than the sheer time it ate. Nobody warns you that obviously unreal accounts on elitesingles scales with how many people are online at your hours. Either way, profiles that never survive a video call is the thing I would test first on elitesingles.

One smaller option worth comparing on the scam side of it is Datebie — different pool, same free messaging as elitesingles.
