If I could give negative stars, I would.
Stellar Hitch is, without a doubt, the worst experience with a business I've ever had. The husband-wife team claim to be exclusive matchmakers and charge $5000 per client. They present a seemingly legitimate front with a convincing website, www.stellarhitch.com., and at the initial meeting, C******a pitches the service in a sweet and subtle way knowing that the client with her is willing to be vulnerable, open and trusting with something very important. But that's where all the feigned "goodness" ends. I realized pretty quickly that Stellar Hitch is a scam. Their claims of having a deep and varied data base of quality matches is totally false. Their claim of carefully vetting and interviewing everyone who takes part in Stellar Hitch's service is totally false. Their claim of providing substantive consulting is totally false. And finally, their claim of having an approach that's "personal, intimate, elegant and safe" is totally false.
My unfortunate experience began in August. From the start, C******a promised that she had so many viable candidates to match me up with. In fact, in our second meeting she showed me a post-it note with several names of potential dates on the front and back. With a huge cheshire grin, she said "I wanted to show you this because I know it will make you happy." Little did I know that list would fall very short of anything promised.
It didn't take long for me to realize Stellar Hitch was nothing but a scam. The two dates I was set up with did not match up to anything I had told them I was looking for. In fact, the first date was such a rude, inconsiderate and arrogant man that it left me stunned. At that point I questioned two things about the service...was C*****a listening to me at all during our meetings and if so, was this horrible date a result of either her inability to apply that information properly OR was it because she just didn't have any viable candidates in her shallow pool and he was the best she could come up with? The other question...was her judgement defective? After the bad date, she referred to this very rude guy at least twice as a "great guy". Left me really wondering.
Second date proved Stellar Hitch can't deliver because they don't have a true data base of people. This guy admitted to me that he had been "scouted" at an event over 2 years ago and asked to be part of the Stellar Hitch pool so he wasn't a paying client. He said he met C*****a only once and the last time he had heard from her was over 7 months ago. He added that the two dates she set him up on were "disasters" (his words). Her knowledge of him and his background was very inaccurate so it was clear after meeting him that she didn't know him well at all.
What made matters worse with Stellar Hitch is that when I began to bring up these questionable issues regarding their practices, C*****a defended every aspect, never taking any responsibility. In fact, she tried to turn everything on me, the client, in an attempt at making me feel that I was to blame, which is quite laughable because it goes completely against their approach, which is allegedly one of "understanding and care."
This is my conclusion...this husband-wife team is a disgrace. They should really be ashamed of themselves that they're making these false promises to individuals who are putting their trust in them. I've found other complaints that are VERY similar on other business websites so it's shocking to me that Stellar Hitch continues to conduct business in this manner. In fact, they've responded to some of those complaints in the same manner I spoke of in the previous paragraph...defending their actions and placing full blame on the client.
I have asked for a refund, as other unhappy clients have, with the same result. If this review saves at least one person from wasting their hard earned money, then that will give me some solace.
STAY AWAY FROM STELLAR HITCH!! read more
