One On One Matchmaking

Bad company– makes false promises and doesn’t deliver. Sarah the owner doesn’t honor discounts or apologize for their mistakes. But instead yells at the customers instead of calling to apologize. I was very appalled at their services and customer service! I DO NOT recommend this company to anyone!!! Also– good luck getting off their mailing list. After MULTIPLE requests, opt outs and unsubscribe they keep sending me mail when it’s CLEAR I STRONGLY DISLIKE this company!!!

I am very disappointed with my One on One Matchmaking experience. When I first came in for my initial interview, the woman interviewing me seemed rushed and like she just wanted to close the deal. I provided her with specific information about what I was looking for and she assured me they had many guys in their database that would be great matches. I was set up on three dates right off the bat, all three of whom were not great matches. The dating coordinator (not the matchmaker) would follow up with me after each date to ask what I liked/didn’t like and I provided feedback.
The real red flag was when they set me up on dates with men that I specifically asked they not set me up with (e.g. I was not interested in dating anyone more than 8 years older than me, they set me up with someone 15+ years my senior. I also told them I was not interested in dating anyone with children and I was set up on a date with a father). The matches they made for me felt more like they were throwing darts at pictures and matching people up that way rather than reviewing the individual’s files and putting thought and care into each match.
Additionally, the only time my matchmaker would talk to me was when I expressed concern about the matches they were setting me up with. I also had several emails and phone calls unanswered by the staff at One on One, which I felt was highly unprofessional. I would even ask why they felt a guy was a good match before accepting a date and none of the staff members could ever answer that question. They would simply respond by saying things like, «he’s really looking forward to meeting you,» «I would totally date him,» or the worst offense «well, he makes a lot of money.» Unfortunately, even by following up and expressing my concerns on more than one occasion, nothing changed.
A friend of mine who is also a part of the service told me that the dating coordinator called her up to set her up on a date and was told point blank that she would not be attracted to the man she wanted to set her up with nor did they have much of anything in common, but that he would find her attractive and made a lot of money. She felt like she was being used as bait to help the organization bring in new clientele. It is my belief that One on One Matchmaking really does not have a very large pool of people to choose from and so they just claim that they are a personalized dating service, but in reality they are just haphazardly setting people up who have little to nothing in common.
One on One Matchmaking also owns Eight at Eight and sometimes they throw social gatherings, which is a great idea. Unfortunately, these gatherings include all of their single clientele ages 20’s to 50’s. The issue with this is the ⁴⁰⁄₅₀ year old men are all over the younger women, which was uncomfortable for me. Additionally the ⁴⁰⁄₅₀ year old women who were present seemed very upset. I mean wouldn’t you be? If I was in my 40s/50’s and looking for a man, I would not want to be having to compete with ²⁰⁄₃₀ year olds. They can do that any weekend at a bar. These events really should be separated by age groups.
At this point, I am seriously considering just cutting my losses and leaving the service entirely. I personally have had a lot more luck on
and participating in social activities. If you are not picky about who you date and have lots of money to burn then this is the service for you. Otherwise, save your money and go elsewhere!

I had a great experience with 1 on 1 Matchmaking. Jennifer was fantastic. She helped me quickly identify the type of girl I was looking for and she took it from there. She set me up on great dates with quality girls that fit my type. It was a fun process and hassle free, which is key for me since I have a very busy life with work and friends. I’m now in a long term relationship with a great girl.
I would definitely recommend Jennifer and 1 on 1 if you are fed up with trying to find dates online, at bars, or are too busy for either of those. I was and it worked for me and was well worth it. YOLO.
