Well, Matchpoint is free of charge, but you will have to earn Matchpoints in order to use the service. The sign/up process is divided into two stages. At stage one you have to answer a few questions about yourself which give you 25 points and you can search the database for singles. Stage two gives you another 25 points and your profile goes online. Uploading a photograph gives you a further 25 points. Searching and sending messages costs 5 points, while viewing full profile details costs 2 points. When you run out of points you simply go the ‘Earn Matchpoints’ section and you receive points through clicking on banners, completing surveys or taking free special offers. |

Although this is not the most attractive dating and personals service we have reviewed it is straight-forward to use. A minus point is the gender imbalance though. |
