DateinaDash - Speed Dating Reviews Reviews 

Giving one star is even generous. I cannot believe the audacity and the ignorance of “Rob” who is undoubtedly the worst to come into contact with. After the event that my friend and I was supposed to attend was cancelled very last minute (at exactly 21:55 the night before the event was to take place) and all was sent was a crap email saying event cancelled and if you want to go to another event respond to email. The whole situation is extremely long and I won’t have enough space to write it all down. Unfortunately my friend and I made the decision to attend thinking we had no choice, we were running late to the event as we were travelling from a significant distance. I had messaged this Rob person and informed him. Very crap at responding back and also took a considerable amount of time responding back. We arrived at the venue (May i also add, complete joke!) and explained to the host but had been extremely dismissive and said we can wait upstairs if we want to join in later. We left. The event was empty and subpar. I had sent a complaint explaining and this Rob person, was beyond rude with his response to myself and my friend. Instead of being professional about it all, he’s decided to become some kind of mean girl and send a 20 page essay full of ignorance and disrespect. I cannot even begin to explain the type of response he sent back. As someone who is working for a customer focused environment, this man most definitely needs a tone of etiquette training on how to respond to emails. Date in a dash is an absolute joke. The amount of people who’ve also requested refunds due to the same nature and have not received back is ridiculous. I’m beyond disappointed and will be sure to inform others not to attend any event from this company. I’ll say it again, DATE IN A DASH IS CRAP! Should’ve followed my friends instincts and not bothered. What a joke and thanks to Rob and his ignorant responses that’s put me right off ever attending events like this.

Attended the singles comedy open mike night.
The host Rob was very welcoming, myself and my friend had not attended any previous events, so didn't know what to expect.
We were a little anxious as the audience were invited on stage to tell a funny/awful dating experience, most of the people (around 20) felt comfortable in being able to get up and share a story, I even got up myself!
The atmosphere felt very supportive which I felt was reflective in how many people got up.
Thank you for a lovely evening, I have already signed up for my second event.

I had a nice time the venue was lovely and I had great chats with the attendees.

this is a sick joke. Apparently, there is no such manchester event booked. I drove all the way from Leeds to Manchester, paid for thir car park, and when I arrived at the event location.

Bar staff told me there is no such event and, in fact, people coming every few Wednesdays and asking for this event. This must be a scam company selling fake tickets with no such actual events.??

Beware!!! Fake events!

I have emailed you varies times, you not still refunded me, neither never replied to my emails. Clearly,you are trying to steal money with fake events. Even the event center confirmed they get atleast 2 or people coming every 2 weeks people like me. Stop scamming people, its not cool. Its a shame I can't upload any screenshots here, otherwise I would uploads all the email I sent you regarding my payment.

It’s worth giving a try the host was approachable and they explained everything clearly.

Went to an event at zebrano really enjoyed it, everyone was super friendly

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.

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 experience

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. 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. 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.

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.

Everyone was friendly and good atmosphere Even ratio male/female
Nice mix of people
Traitors theme introduced interesting dynamic

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!

I've been to a few of these events and the experience has been super pleasant. I met the host Rob, really welcoming and appreciates the feedback. Highly recommended.

The customer service team helped me book a new ticket when I didn't originally find a match at my first event, and I met some very nice people at the second event!

VFantastic events, incredibly welcoming hosts, delightful staff, an absolutely wonderful evening for those flying solo. I would highly recommend it.

Good socialising experience. Rob is great. Large age range of men and women.
