A total scam run by a very dishonest company. The site clearly states it charges $19.99 a month then proceeds to rob you by deducting $76.96 without your authorisation. Not only that it has you on an automated deduction system that does not allow you to cancel without going through a ridiculously unnecessary process ie. cancelling subscription by sending through a signed confirmation letter to an office located in Luxemburg! I cancelled my credit card just to be safe. Why they are allowed to operate in Australia is beyond me since there have been so many complaints.

Do not join this on line dating service in any manner. Their clients are Asian conmen and when you have so called spoken to them via email they then ask for money because they are in difficult circumstances, which is a lie. Most of the people on line do not exist and many are stolen identities. When you cancel your membership they won't accept and then send threatening emails to say "prove you cancelled" although the action was attended. They are fraudulent and should be exposed to the world in this manner. DO NOT GO ANY WHERE NEAR THIS COMPANY.

This site is a scam. They rely on tricking people using fine print. Their website is clearly designed to trick people into paying much more than they intended and then they make it almost impossible to cancel the automatic subscription that you did not agree to in the first place.

Am disgusted with this site, I cancelled my subscription 3 months ago and they have now charged me again nearly $200 for nothing. This is fraud & I am reporting them to consumer affairs. Do not trust this site

This site 'popped up' when I was googling for singles activities. They promoted themselves very well and appeared to be genuine, so I subscribed. My experience gave the clear impression that be2 date site is not genuine, so my subscription was ended. About 8 or 10 months later I received a demand from a debt collector with threats of legal action.
Their actions speak for them.

I've tried to cancel subscription with numerous emails and just as many automated responses demanding $212 from me. I'd cancelled my credit card to so as not to be taken for a ride. Now today I received an email from ARL Collections based in Melbourne, according to their website, demanding the $212.00 and requesting me to contact their office by phone.
Not sure what process is going to be on the cards, just sure as hell not going to get call them as they'd harass me over the phone. I've been receiving hundreds of scam emails since I bought the initial subscription.

They do not disclose that they take hundreds of your dollars and the fine print no one ever bothers to read. They rely on people not reading.

Stay well away from this site. They are rip offs and you'll never meet anyone off their site. Like every other reviewer here it is impossible to stop them taking money, or attempting to and then sending threatening letters.
Total scam.

An off shoot of be2 so avoid like the plague. Really card to get out of as they require you to fax them 14 days notice if you want to end it. Don't bother scammers for sure. Ended up cancelling credit card then getting threatening emails that I would get a debt collector onto me.

This company is a joke - do not use them - I joined for 1 month with a big 19.95 showing on the page - next day I email and ask why 89$ odd was deducted - whoops I didn’t read the fine print that was 1 week not a month - try to cancel from 2 days after I join no luck after numerous emails I get know where they take out 179$ for 3 months they say I should have xxxld by 8th sept (2 weeks after I join)) for monies not 2 come out of my bank - then to top it off someone else uses my profile pics under another name email again no resolve - STAY AWAY fr BE2

Scam, scam and the same story thought I signed for one month and was continually charged, could not find a way to get unsubscribed so had to cancel credit card and now I have a letter from arl debt collectors for monies I owe!! Most profiles are fake. Do not go anywhere near be2

Rating should be 0. How do they sleep at night
Total scam so wished i had read these reviews before going onto be2 site. Looks like iam not the only 1

Sign up confusing. How to cancel confusing. Responses to messages are automated and both messages I received were the same with only a few details changed. Don't be fooled by this site, so many contacts with no photos or completed profiles. No way to tell if there is any genuine people on there. I should have known better, learn from my mistake.

If you wanna waste your money - let's do it. Scammers are waiting for you. I gonna report this company to ACCC or consumer ombudsman!!!

This site is fake, profiles are fake and customer service responses are automated. It is a trap for the vulnerable and I suggest others to stay away. I guess we live and learn. I have disputed the charges and hopefully my financial institution with resolve this to my satisfaction. Once bitten twice shy.

OMG!!! This is the worst site I have ever been on. The profiles are fake!! I have not met anyone and now I have tried to cancel and will not let me. I sent a fax on May 24, with 3 follow up emails and they said not sent in time, which I did, before 13 June renewal date. I can't seem to find which card I paid it on but I have now emailed the copy and they are saying now they need transmission confirmation. This is a disgrace!! I have said just cancel the membership immediately or I will report them, I don't want any money back.. They leave the email a week before replying. I will keep sending emails until they cancel. Does anyone know who we can report this company too?

The worst dating online. They fake . I wish I read their review. I press button to join 1 month but they took my money for 6 months. I'm ok with it, I thought was my mistake. 6 months later they took my money again and more than last time. I tried to cancel my membership but the be2 website did not let me. Lucky I paid through my PayPal acc. I call them and I told them that I got scam by be2. I got the refund . so happy . thanks to PayPal customer service. Excellent job.
Should stop be2 operated in Australia. Scam. Scam.

I can only repeat what the other reviews have stated. “Fuzzy” photos which were to be revealed only if I paid another $299, so I attempted to cancel - impossible to contact them & they still took $299 from my bank account. There were all sorts of legal threats so I cancelled my credit card as my bank warned me they would still keep trying to withdraw from my account. Surely there is a way to get these criminals???

I clicked on $20 for 1 month trial. They took approx $90 out of my account. I only got matched with 20 guys. Most were false profiles. I spoke to 1 guy only who told me he got matched with 500 women. 1 month later I found they took an additional $200 from my account. In the fine print it says to cancel your account you need to send a fax and ONCE PROCESSED your account will no longer be billed.

My issue is they make it hard to cancel. I had a written agreement that they required 14 days notice to cancel ahead of the June final membership date. I duly sent off a scanned written and signed letter in time for them to cancel adhering to the notice period. They then wrote back and said the notice period was not 2 weeks but 6 weeks and that I would be billed again for a further 6 months almost $300. I said that I had documentation of the 2 weeks and for them not to tarnish their brand name and hassle a 72 year old man. I then had to replace my credit card with a $10 fee as a precaution. They wrote back and said they made a mistake and there would be no further payments required. They were trying it on.

signed up...did not like it so tried to cancel premium membership after 1 week. Sent 3 Letters within the 14 day notes period according to their terms and conditions, did not hear at all from them. Send e-mail to Ozi customer service e-mail only automated reply only. Called the Bank and CXL my credit card. Keep receiving nasty e-mail pay up or we will pass on to debt collectors. Will not pay another $ to them! After all I sent them 3 letters to Luxemburg asking to CXL! Wondering if anybody in Australia actually had debt collectors knocking on their doors? What was the outcome? Called ACCC they not really any help and just advice to get legal advice. SOOOO frustrated!

I didn’t read these reviews and subscribed from the Facebook link. The profiles listed have duplicate photos when I enquired, was advised that these are temporary photos waiting to be updated. The temporary photos stayed on many profiles. The automatic renewal will be charged to your credit card, the only reason mine didn’t is I cancelled my credit card. I now am being chased by a collection agency in Amsterdam theartening a court summons. I’m absolutely not paying anything further this is an awful scam. Please don’t sign up.

My friend joined this B2 site and thought she was getting a bargain
She told me about finding the add on Facebook
I looked it up and saw all these complaints
She then checked her Visa card account and saw she had been charged over 200 dollars instead of what she had agreed to (being less than 60 dollars ) per the add.
She has phoned the bank to cancel the transaction and her card.
I think everyone needs to email Facebook and complain about them allowing this to happen
Surely other people have notified Facebook about this fraudulent practice.

The site advertised $29.00 for 6 months membership. I paid by credit card. Got my credit card statement. Be2 NZ charged my card $299.76

Images of potential “matches” are blurred and when you subscribe, you find out they are only “templates”: Not the person depicted. I immediately requested a refund which was declined. Disgusting low life's who should not be able to advertise.

Don't be sucked in with this site. Simplified profiles, no pictures and the cost is exorbitant. If you decide to cancel they make it super difficult - nothing user friendly here. No money back.

After joining I realized almost immediately that their were numerous profiles of same person with different names from different locations. I wanted to cancel my membership but kept getting the run around. I've since cancelled my credit card. I cannot believe that this site is still operating in Australia as it is clearly not a fair trading and legit site. Its disgusting that so many innocent people are being screwed over.

This is the worst site ever - a scam for sure. I think the profiles are made up & photograps of people sourced from elsewhere. Real people don't seem to exist. I have sent numerous emails informing be2 that I want to cancel. I only heard back from them when I threatened legal action. I then sent my cancellation in a signed attachment - why do they make it so hard to cancel but so easy to join & then it seems they have a rich vein to draw money from. The instructions in the site to cancel membership simply keep turning you around in circles. I feel strongly that I want to inform some authority about this as I truly think it's a scam.

I unfortunately have been taken for a big ride with this site & charged to my credit card after signing up for what I thought was 1 month. Surely this is not legal in Australia when you don't receive the service you were promises and no notification prior to subscription renewal? Now I am getting my emails to "customer [email protected]" bounced back. Looks like I will be in the same situation & have to cancel my credit card & cop the charges for something I cannot even access. So angry at myself but I feel that this is also something that should not be aloud to happen. Will try to follow up on if this is also legal through ACC.

Signed up for A 6 month subscription @$12 something a month. Was charged $299. No one to contact!!!! Do not trust this site.
