I went to a speed dating event at Mountain View this week.

PROS:
The place was nice.

CONS:
1. there were only 4 girls and 9 guys. One of the girls said she was actually a friend of the hostess, and that she'd been dragged along because "there weren't enough girls." The remaining 3 girls were me and two of my friends. A friend had wanted to try it out and had invited us to come along.

The hostess kept saying that more girls were supposed to come but nobody else ended up arriving. We eventually started several minutes late with said grand total of 4 girls and 9 guys.

2. It's really hard to blame the mix of people on the company... but let's just say I didn't find anybody that interesting. There were some decent people there, but meh.

Since there were less than the # of males/females in the group (the website promises at least 10 dates a night) the hostess said we'd be getting vouchers so we could go to the next HurryDate for free.

3. When I tried entering my scores, I got an error saying someone had already entered scores using my ID#. I contacted them regarding the error. No response after several days.

4. The next day, I realized I didn't have a use for the free voucher, and wanted to ask if I could get a refund instead. I reiterated the error I received regarding not being able to enter my scores. Still no response.

5. Today, I got an e-mail saying, "we missed you at the party! If you were there, it means you haven't entered your scores yet." Because of your idiotic website, dumbasses. (OK, I know that it was an automated e-mail, but SHEESH.)

DO NOT SIGN UP WITH THIS COMPANY.
1. they don't deliver with the required # of participants (seriously?! you could only gather 4 girls and 9 guys and you chose to push through with the event?)
2. they can't even match you up with the participants because of some website errors that they don't even take the proper time to resolve

How the eff can they call themselves a speed dating company when they can't even fix those things?
