Dating Direct is one of of the largest and most popular dating websites in the UK (they claim to be the largest but I’m not 100% certain). The site is owned and operated by Meetic, one of the largest dating networks on the internet. Therefore by joining Dating Direct you will not only have access to millions of UK members, but millions of people from all across the world.
The Dating Direct site is very easy to get around. You can find suitable matches using the members online or search feature. Every users profile shows you an introduction, a description of what they look like and details of their lifestyle (do they drink/smoke etc). Many users also enter details of what their perfect match would be so you can see how are what they are looking for. All users can also upload pictures and a video introduction about themselves too.
Dating Direct also has some great chat software. If you see someone online that you like can chat with them using their pop up chat box. The chat window works really well and also allows you to chat via webcam.
Pricing
Signing up is free however in order to message other members you need to sign up as a premium member. A monthly subscription costs £29.99 however this price is greatly reduced when you purchase several months in advance.
- Monthly Subscription: £29.99 per month
- 3 Month Subscription: £19.99 per month (Billed in one payment of £59.97)
- 6 Month Subscription: £12.99 per month (Billed in one payment of £77.94)
Verdict
Their 6 month subscription package offers good value for money, particularly when you consider the number of members they have and how good their chat software is. However, it is a little expensive for those who want to pay on a monthly basis.
Regardless of price, Dating Direct is one of the best dating sites in the UK though so it’s worth signing up to see if you can find someone special in your area.
