Elite Singles Review September 2019

Signing up to EliteSingles is a lengthier process compared to some other dating sites that only require basic information upon registration. This is because they really want to get to know you and understand your personality to match you with a like-minded individual. By answering a few simple questions, you finetune the search for your possible matches. 

EliteSingles' personality test has been developed by psychologists to analyse 29 personality traits. After providing some basic questions such as age, sex, location, you then proceed to the personality survey which will take approximately 20 minutes. Fortunately, you can save your progress mid-session and return to complete the survey at another time if needed. 

The questions ask you to rate yourself against statements if it is completely applicable to you, slightly applicable, or doesn't apply at all. You will be asked about characteristics if you always follow a plan, if you seek adventure, if you leave clutter around your home, if you feel stress easily, and other questions such as, "Would you describe yourself as warm, clever, dominant, etc?" After answering these questionnaires, you will be redirected to a page where you can find a list of members who are qualified and compatible according to your standards.

There are various ways to make contact with your matches on EliteSingles. It allows you to like and comment on your matches' profile photos. Most of its features are only available for those with a paid membership, especially the ones that involve any two-way communication. However, if you're a standard member, you are allowed to send winks to your matches. You can also use a search filter for easy browsing. 

Sending, reading, and replying to emails are paid features for EliteSingles. If a member does not have a paid membership, they cannot reply to a paid user that sent them a message unless they upgrade, too. Premium accounts also have the privilege to be highlighted and prioritised. 

Elite Singles also offers a feature that is somewhat similar to the swiping function available on other online dating apps. It is called the "Have You Met?" section. On this page, you are presented with an overview of a person's profile. From that, you decide whether you like them or not, by clicking the wink or the X icon. 

EliteSingles has one of the most informative profile sections. Though the site only uses basic personal information like your first name and your age, it is still able to provide important details about your dating preferences as well as other subjective personal information. 

When signing up for an account on Elite Singles, you are asked to answer some questions. These questions are not only relevant for the matching process but are also useful in filling out some of the information needed on your profile. 

When visiting a member's profile, you will immediately see the actions you can take so that member can notice you. You will also find details about his or her physical characteristics on the upper part of the profile page. 

The information that you might want to know is not just found on the About page. If you look at the left part of the profile page, you will find a tab named "Personality Profile." Here you will find all the facts about a member's personality traits. Most of the items you've answered from the personality test are found here.

Although EliteSingles quotes their membership fees on a monthly basis, the subscription fee is paid upfront for the entire period. This means that if you purchase a 12-month subscription, the whole 12-month subscription fee will be debited in one lump sum, and not in monthly instalments.

Memberships will automatically renew at the end of the membership period for the same duration as originally signed up for unless you cancel it prior to expiration. For example, if you sign up for a six-month membership and do not cancel it, you will automatically be signed up for another six months.

Canceling your membership is easy. If you decide that you do not wish to continue your paid membership, you can manage it in your 'My Account' settings. Or, if you purchased your membership via an iOS or Android device, you must cancel on iTunes or on Play Store.

There are quite a few features available for free members. These include uploading photos, getting matches, and sending winks and likes. But if you want to really establish a connection to your matches, it is recommended that you get an upgrade. With a premium membership, you will be able to send unlimited messages to any of your matches every day.
