uDate is not a bad site, it's just not a good site either. The site has some quality singles on it and seems not to have too many fake ads. Their customer service is at least somewhat responsive to ordinary problems. Their encounters feature is unique: it shows who has matched/browsed/e-mailed/chatted you, and vice versa.

On the other hand, you can't perform geographic searches any closer than your home state. This might be OK if you live in Rhode Island, but not if you're from Texas. There's no way to opt out of the encounters feature, so you can't quite idly browse through ads. Though there ads of of reasonable quality, there aren't very many good ones (subjective opinion) compared with match and Yahoo.

Who knows, it might be worth your while. Check it out thoroughly before you pony up any money.
