The app is full of bots. Very clear when every single person you talk to is incredibly adamant on staying on there and tend to follow the same script. Not to mention how no matter the time of day, they always respond in less than a minute. Also, it costs money for each message (via gems), which makes it extra weird that people would want to stay on the app for prolonged amounts of time. DO NOT USE. It's a glorified ai chatbot service

We're sorry you feel this way. We do not use AI or fake profiles on Once. If you encounter any suspicious profile or activity, please report it in the app so we can investigate. Communication requires Gems, while chatting with regular members is unlimited with a subscription. For assistance, please contact support@getonce.com.

After paying £44 for 6 months and using it for just one week, I had to cancel my membership, believing I'd get a refund on what I didn't use, I didn't get back. And also, after messaging a woman about 8 times, I had to pay £10.99 to get about 8 more messages. And after that, I was asked to pay for more coins to keep chatting. Other dating sites I have been on before, you get to message as often as you like once you pay the subscription.

Hello! Thank you for your rate. The only communication with popular members costs you 5 Coins per Message, and you can receive them for free with your subscription or choose one of the packages available. With your subscription, you can communicate unlimited with non-popular members and receive a lot of other benefits.

This app is a disgrace. I honestly don't know how apps like this are allowed to be put through the Play Store - Google, you're just as much of a disgrace for allowing it. I downloaded it and, low and behold, all the women were supermodels and, amazingly, loads loved right around the corner from me! I'd been on the app for seconds when I was liked by 3 women and they had sent me messages. The idea is to keep you chatting until you have to pay for membership to keep the chat alive. A total scam.
