I wish I had done my homework on Great Expectation.
What a rip off, their should be a class action law suit against them.
I first called them to get an idea on what the cost would be and was told they had a plan just to suit me.

Being divorced for a little over a year, and not wanting to do the bar seen, I went down there to check out what they had to say and see what they offered.......Boy was that a mistake!
I met with Stefanie Hogan on July 30th 2008,She started to tell me that they are the largest dating service in the nation, and that they have thousands of members. She told me that I would not have any problems meeting my soul mate, she said within six months I would have the girl of my dreams. (of course she did not put that in writing) stupid me!

I told her what type of women I would be interested in and she showed me some photos of what looked like models.... I told her slim, dark hair, very attractive, and between the ages of 35 to 50.
She said Oh! No problem, we have many Ladies like that (that was BS!) She told me that they run background checks on all members to make sure they don't have a criminal record, and to verify they are not married. (that's BS also.) She sold me on this plan which I did not need and told me after six months and I would have my soul mate, Yeah Right!

She asked for my credit card and told me to look over some photos of some of the members. Then she ran my card and came in with a contract. She would not let me read it and kept distracting me. At the same time she was telling me where to sign or initial rushing through the paperwork. When I asked about certain paragraphs she would say don't worry about that, it just means this or that, just initial it. She kept telling me how good looking I was and that in no time I would meet a girl. She told me she would work with me and if I found a girl I was interested in she would contact that person to have her check me out, once again (BS).

After a few months I started to call Stefanie, and was telling her that most of the Ladies that I would be interested in are all inactive, and the choices they had were not to my choosing......She would tell me to pick some anyway , just to see what they say.
I told her most of the women that I chose said no to me, and after a while I started to see the profiles I read did not match the person .......most of these women were looking for that chip- and dale type of guy, looks, body, and money. I did not have any of that...But Stefanie told me I would not have any problems , within six months I would have my soul mate, ( ha,ha,ha) the jokes on me.
When I told her (Stefanie) that I was going to sue them for discrimination, and false pretences she sort of laughed and said you can't sue us read your contract.

I have had many encounters with Stefanie regarding the selection of women, and when she got notice of me suing them, she sent me an email saying that one of the women was interested. This candidate was inactive but is available now. Stephanie continued to tell the interested candidate had said yes to me. Well I got to laugh on this one, ..I called this Lady, after calling her 4 times just to see if it was a scam, and sure a enough it was, that women never called me back.

I paid $7995.00 for this service and now it is costing me more to retrieve my money. Attorney fees are not cheap.
I Hope someone will read this before they make the same mistake I made, as did hundreds of others.
Please just remember this, it's a scam, and they do discriminate.
