Untrustworthy

12th March event in Manchester cancelled due to low numbers. Refund initially refused by Rob, instead offered to transfer my ticket to another night; but clearly the company doesn't have market penetration in Manchester and the next event is likely to suffer the same fate and get cancelled. Rob conceded to a refund on the 17th March. Despite polite chasing since, the refund has still not been received 4th April. From reviews below, it looks like I'm not the only one to experience this attitude. Should be rebranded SlapDash. Avoid.

I'm sorry to hear about your cancellation. Obviously we can't go ahead with an event if we do not have enough people signed up. We are a London based company and do not have enough interest in our events in Manchester currently. I have processed a full refund as per your request. I'm not really sure what you mean by 'attitude' as I haven't been rude to you at all. Anyway, all the best! Regards, Rob.

Great Dating Company

This must be the best dating company in the UK. Rob and his colleagues are empathetic, flexible, funny and great administrators. There is always a relaxed vibe around their events. I have tried a few others in London and they are definitely the best.

Good way to meet people

I’ve now been to a few events with DateinaDash. Traitors speed dating was good as there were a lot of guys, which meant that there was more possibility of meeting someone you liked. I probably spoke to 20 guys. Although at the same time a bit challenging to play the game while also trying to get to know someone! But overall good fun.

The recent normal speed dating event had a lot less people so was over in an hour, but I still spoke to 10 different guys. Overall it’s a good way of meeting people. I used to think I would never do speed dating but I’ve come around to it! And that’s even when attending alone.

It’s definitely a better alternative to endless swiping on apps. The venues I’ve been to so far have been good as well - I haven’t had any matches yet but I will definitely attend more events.

This was such a fun night

This was such a fun night. Very well organised, the instructions were clear and I met some lovely ladies. I would definitely recommend this to singles as it's fun and a great night out. The venue is superb too and I can't wait for the next one. A big thanks to Rob and the team.

Dreadful non-event

Dreadful non-event. 20 women booked on and 8 men. Host rude.
Only 16 seats so volunteers asked to leave. Me and a friend volunteered as we didn’t have a seat anyway so didn’t have much choice.
Not been able to get in touch since event for a refund. Ignoring calls/texts and e mails.
Do not waste your money. Wish I hadn’t wasted the train fare. Not even worth 1 star

In response to your reply Rob. Everything you say completely contradicts what your host said. And as for ‘reaching out’, I have called three times and emailed twice for my refund and you haven’t responded….Shambolic company.

Thank you for taking the time to leave a review about our event. I am sorry to hear about your experience. We had 16 women and 12 men booked into this event but unfortunately 4 of the women booked as 'male' because the female tickets were fully booked. This meant that on the night we had a massively skewed ratio of 20/8. We only had 16 seats available because that is the number of dates we plan for at this event. It is very frustrating when people deliberately change their gender to book a ticket to a 'sold out' event - it's sold out for a reason! I can't seem to find any e-mail from you so please do reach out on enquiries@dateinadash.com and we'll be more than happy to resolve this for you! Regards, Rob.

An interesting social event

It was a great opportunity to meet other people. I had a chat with some of the other men before the official start and then was able to talk to a dozen women for a few minutes each. The idea of dating like a high-speed job interview is uncomfortable, but if approached from the perspective of being able to meet and have a conversation with many people in a single night it was a much more interesting experience and everyone was pleasant to talk to.

Unfortunately, four minutes per person is a bit of a rush so there is very limited opportunity to get to know people before moving on and it felt like just as a conversation was getting a flow it was time to move on.

I guess that's the point though, approach it as an interesting opportunity to meet new people while keeping one's eye on the goal of meeting someone special. I'm glad I've done this and can recommend it to anyone.

If you’re a guy that values your time…

If you’re a guy that values your time and after a genuine connection, don’t bother. The venue booked was too small, so you end up trying to get it on with the new girl while still sat next to the old girl you’ve just “dated”. What’s the point? Then the genuine girls are all socially awkward. Tripadvisor reviews are dramatic but a lot more accurate than the fluff over here and on their website. Edit: Who is Abdul G? Paranoid much!

No idea who this person is or what event they are referring to as they have left it under a false name. For clarity we have no one called 'Anthony Healey' on our database. They actually left another review under 'Abdul G' before this one which was removed from Trustpilot for breaching their T&C's - so read into that what you will. I have asked the reviewer to provide more information (such as a ticket confirmation or reference) and they have failed to do so. I will just say that it's certainly NOT the 'genuine girls' who are socially awkward at our events! Take this with a massive pinch of salt.

I met my two friends in Richmond

I met my two friends in Richmond, we went to DateinaDash in All Bar One. When we arrived, we were made to feel welcome, we had a drink then we were showed upstairs, by the organiser, where the tables were layed out, very organised. We all really enjoyed our experience, we are all definitely going to recommend to out friends. Thank you, Rob.

The host encouraged people to move around so that they didn’t get stuck sitting in one place. The variety of beverages at a reasonable price. Staff were very polite and just generally a nice atmosphere.
