Jane talks the talk, and is great at selling herself, but she does not deliver, and she is full of excuses when she is not able to deliver on her promises.
I signed a contract with Jane in January 2017, and paid almost $4,000 for it. Under the contract she agreed to provide an unlimited number of matches to me for 12 months, and a minimum of 6 first dates. There were some special circumstances at the beginning of my contract that limited who might be a match for me, but as I told Jane many times after the first couple of years, those circumstances ceased to exist.
Jane is a terrible communicator, and this is one of my biggest issues with her. Despite having specifically asked her numerous times to be more communicative, and to check in with me every couple of months for an update, she would not. I was the one who had to reach out to her. She did not even send out any information when COVID began, stating whether or not her services were being put on hold, and if they were not, how she was handling things.
In addition, each time I would contact her for an update after long periods of not hearing from her, she would say she was going to have to "dig deep" and find someone for me, and would inevitably come up with a profile to send me. Why was she not "digging deep" without me having to prod her?
It is now September 2020, over 3.5 years later, and I am still waiting for my 6th first date. In total, she sent me about 8 profiles, 5 of which I said yes to. It took 2.5 years for me to get 5 first dates (during that time I dated a couple of the men for a few months, but was still open to meeting others).
To say her services have been disappointing would be an understatement. Not only have I dealt with all of the above, a couple of the men I met for first dates made me wonder if she remembered who I was and what I was looking for at all. Also, she sent the wrong information to one of my dates so we both went to the venue at different times. It was a mess, and for $4,000 I expected a lot more.
Jane has covered herself well and put together a contract that does not require her to refund money even if she does not meet the 6 guaranteed dates in one year. The way the contract is worded, it gives her an unlimited amount of time to get you 6 first dates, with no recourse for you if this time period extends into multiple years. After a couple of years of not getting all of my first dates, I asked for a partial refund several times, and she refused.
This whole experience has been extremely upsetting and somewhat humiliating. I paid a lot of money, did not get what I was promised, and have been left with no means of recourse. Dating is hard enough in Vancouver, don't let Jane make it even harder for you. read more
