Cancelled four times in a row!
Oh dear ... this stretches back months!!
Booked for Richmond, 14th March. This was cancelled on the day "due to circumstances beyond our control".
Rebooked for Guildford, 3rd May. Cancelled the day before, this time "due to lower numbers than expected"
Rebooked for Singles Quiz Night in the City (Cornhill) for Friday 19th May ... cancelled on the day "due to lower numbers than expected" .... and apparently "will now be taking place on Friday 26th May"!
I wasn't going to be a mug and make any effort to get myself there for the evening of Friday 26th, as I knew what would probably happen. Sure enough, what did we get on Friday 26th May at 10:39am? "Unfortunately, we have not managed to confirm enough attendees for our Singles Quiz tonight so this event has now been cancelled ... []...We apologise for any inconvenience this may have caused"
All the above communications were sent by email. Bear in mind that I've got two email addresses, and the one that is associated with my Trustpilot profile is not the same one that is associated with Date in a Dash. Never mind ... if D in a D shamelessly try to use this as a way of wriggling out of responsibility for this, then that will just show them up even more. They can find all the records of the events I've listed above, with exact dates etc., and they will see that they have done exactly what I've said, i.e. cancelled four times in a row.
Keep my money. I don't care! I feel sorry for you. You have sunk so low. Speed dating is obviously just old hat now, and you can't sustain your business. However, you could've found new ways of organising events. The quiz night might have turned out well if you'd signed up enough people, but why couldn't you sign up enough people?
Not good. Avoid this lot, people!

Thank you for taking the time to share your experience with us. I am sorry to hear that you had several cancelled events in a row. We do host approx 30 events a month but naturally some are cancelled when we do not have enough people. I'm not sure what you would like me to do but when I haven't got the numbers we cannot run the events. We have to wait until the day of the event to see if we get any last minute bookings so cancellations will unfortunately always be on the day. I will say that the Richmond event that was cancelled was a one off (we had the numbers to go ahead) but they had a wake in the function room and were unable to accommodate us (to my knowledge in 10 years of hosting events in Richmond this is the first one to be cancelled). Guildford is a brand new area for us so it will take a few months to get established before we can start running the events and this was to be expected (certainly from my perspective) so it's not a case of the event was cancelled because we don't have enough business it's just a brand new market we are entering and it will take time. I am not sure why you say 'You have sunk so low', if we don't have the numbers what do you want me to do? Speed Dating certainly isn't 'old hat', we had over 1,000 people go to one of our events in May. Obviously you do care about your money because you've left a war and peace review. I am more than happy to recommend you some events that will go ahead and then we can get you booked in and hopefully leave with a positive experience. Please do reach out on enquiries@dateinadash.com. Regards, Rob.
Well organised events
I have attended a few now and I am really happy with the quality, organisation and calibre of dates that turn up. I would give the events 5 stars and a big thumbs up !!

Their events are fun and at some top venues. It definitely beats staying in. If you have no plans, grab a drink, meet some new people, and you will meet someone you like. Highly recommended!

I must say I am very happy with the services that DateinaDash provides. Speed dating might be a daunting thing for many people, but the staff makes it as easy and funny as possible. I thoroughly enjoyed myself, and I have met a lot of interesting people.
Keep up the great work!

Meh.
I've been speed dating with a few different companies in London, and DateinaDash was easily the worst experience I've had so far. This rating is based on the event, not on the people who attended it, or the bar staff. On the day of the event, DateinaDash announced a location change - which is fine. My complaint is that they didn't replace it with an equivalent venue, so it felt like a bait and switch. Given that Rob and his team are providing an experience and a service, it is unfortunate that they put no visible effort into curating the space in the way that other businesses do (i.e. arranging tables with numbers, providing a means to assess dates during the event, mood lighting, etc.). The bar was also open to the public, meaning that they didn't reserve it, and that you had regular patrons there as the event was going on. Odd. Plus, it's more expensive than other events that I've attended. And, if you read other poor reviews, you'll notice that Rob just blames the reviewer instead of taking the feedback to heart or committing to do better moving forward. So, to recap: an unfortunate last-minute venue, a minimal-effort event, for more money than the competition, and run by someone who someone who doesn't know how to handle feedback? No thank you.

I'm really sorry that you didn't like the venue but I have only had positive feedback about El Vino from my customers. Personally, this is one of my favourite venues and a great space for Speed Dating. Conveniently located a short walk from London Bridge station it's easy to reach and has a large selection of wines with a gorgeous 5.7% larger on draught. The inside bar was NOT open to the public but guests outside were able to use the toilets. Not sure why you claim we are the most expensive event when quite clearly we are not (just Google speed dating events in London and see for yourself!). Yes, you can find events for £13-16 on some lesser websites but quite honestly you pay for what you get. Why do you think they sell tickets at this price? Because they can't attract paying customers at £20-22. As the market leader we have more people attending our events than anyone else and that is why are tickets are priced the way they are but they are not the most expensive. Infact, I don't believe any event is worth more than £20 and I would never charge more. There are two other companies that offer their events for £22 and provide far fewer dates. Some events are also priced at £30 if you're in your 50's which is disgusting quite frankly. There are also 'Elite' events offered at £45 which are exactly the same as regular Speed Dating with no vetting or strict criteria. I'm certainly not in the business of ripping people off, infact I believe we offer excellent value for money when you compare us with the other organisations. So, to recap: a switch to a lovely venue hired exclusively for our event, far less money than the competition but twice as many dates and run by someone who cares a great deal, always goes the extra mile for customers and can certainly handle feedback if it's genuine, honest and justified which in this case it is not. Thank you!! p.s - rather than read the smidgen of bad reviews (generally left by customers annoyed by not finding a match) why not take a look at all the positive comments about DateinaDash? We have had over 60,000 people attend our events since 2011, clearly we are doing something right!
Utterly disappointed
Edit:
Thank you to the person who replied as I forgot the red straw thing - I was never given one lol. By the way, the app is called MeetUp - make yourself a favour if you're attending this mediocre event to at least go for free - app is free to sign up! I was mistaken. Info of the event claims 'Join 250 people (equal split of men and women) for London's BIGGEST Singles Party'. Baffled.
-
First timer here. Gave it a go for the sake of it. Booked an event for a Fri night mingle, in a roof top - info said there were going to be 100+ people, men and women equal, it also said to contact via email and phone number if you were running late. I messaged them and emailed them on the date of the event, at 9 am. No reply whatsoever.
Okay, I show up late and manage to get in.
The place: a tiny space, hardly fitting 20,30 people comfortably (probably less). Overpriced drinks, of course, but the view was nice. Only one space to sit.
The people: definitely less than 100+, I would say 30 max? Being generous. Way more men than woman.
Talking to other WOMEN, I find out I was the only one who paid to attend the event because there's an app that lists them for free - I feel like a clown. And oh yeah a half full glass of an ok champagne was £16.5.
Very, very disappointing 'first dating event'. I think I'll never be attending another of this type again.

The only thing baffling is this review! The customer turned up very late by which point a lot of people had already left. The area by the bar where most people were mingling was not the only space for the event. The whole purpose of our 'red straw' parties is that guests can go anywhere in the venue and they are easy to identify by the straw they are drinking through. We had 185 people booked into this event with near 50/50 split. '30 Max? Being generous' Oh give over what a load of total rubbish! Yes, there were a few more men than women but surely as you are a WOMAN this would be a positive thing no? Why are you complaining about this? No, you were not the only person to pay for a ticket but we do give a number away on Meet Up every now and then. £16.50 for a glass of champagne is reasonable considering you are on a rooftop bar in London. The reality is this event was a really good party with 150+ in attendance and a great mix of people. If you arrive late than you can expect not to be able to sit down or meet everyone. Our parties also rely on people being confident and approaching people so if you're the type of person who isn't very good at that then this party will suck (but that really isn't our fault!) Take this review with a pinch of salt!
Good time
Well organised event, had a neat time, met some neat people.
