Illicitencounters Anmeldelser 

Although there is the odd suspect person overall I feel the site is safer than any other out there. It's easy to block unwanted people pestering and easy to search to find the people in age range and location wanted.

Excellent Website. Does what it says on the Tin! Wouldn’t hesitate in recommending.

It delivers what I had hoped for. I am not terribly comfortable about computerised systems and so some of the nuances I struggled with, but once they were explained to me they worked well.

Interesting point of view! (Male)

Firstly let me say it does work.

The question is how long do you sign up for, too short and it's rushed, too long it becomes addictive but boring.

Like all in life there is a mixed bag on there, including scammers. The trick is how to weed them out. Probably go with your first instinct, but then the problem is, are they just not very good blindly getting their personality over. It can me a mind field, be open minded, be polite and be careful no different to meeting a stranger for the first time, give yourself time to work them out.
Then you have the frustration of timing, everyone dipping in and out of conversation which could go on for weeks. Sometimes with timing you can suddenly connect, good timing, the stars align and your away. It will either fizzle out or you end up meeting.

Then you face the reality, are they what they portrayed in conversation and importantly do they look like the photos.

Being on there at various times as various different profile names, I can say on three occasions they didn't look like their photos. After seeing them in the flesh they certainly wasn't as slim as they impersonated.
It was very clear they were after one thing, which in the first instance seems great, that is if you can put the size deception aside. Obviously once everyone has relieved themselves, you question why you are there. If it's just for sexual relieve, you could debate that a professional might be cheaper and a quicker process without the baggage.

So before and if you join, ask yourself what you really want from this. It will be frustrating, it will be time consuming and you may not achieve anything apart from getting to know that there are a lot of people in the same boat and pay to find that out.
Good luck
Ps love yourself

I wouldn't even give this one star. Agree with most the comments and advise people ... especially men ... to AVOID this site.

It is a complete scam ... extremely expensive for men to join and free for women. Most of the female profiles are clearly fakes designed to hook you in. I had several months of frustrating experience before deciding to let my subscription lapse.

Suddenly I was inundated with what appeared to be a lot of interest so resubscribed. Lo and behold ... half the profiles disappeared and no messages for any of the supposedly interested parties.

My own fault for being wo naive, please don't be fooled and fall into the same trap.

Absolute RIP OFF!!!

Awful, scammy site that uses references to UK media to make it appear classy but actually pulls All the same scams and stunts that cheap dating sites pull, but charged an awful lot of money it you’re male. Women are free and that’s part of the problem.
85% of the site female profiles are dormant for months or years.
Lots of fake profiles created by the site to articially boost numbers. Bots, scammers and hookers that the site does so little to stop you wonder if this is just a more plausibly deniable way to scam money.
On top of that the site design and functionality is terrible with some really lame features. Avoid.

I'm back reviewing this site again, for a reason.

I've tried pretty much every other site of this nature, and I think, putting aside the interface it's the best.
Weird thing to say, but the people are actually nice and friendly, and most importantly, mostly as far as I could tell, not fake. I met quite a few and/or spoke on WhatsApp. These guys do not prevent numbers being passed unlike some other websites. In fact, I even got used to the interface.

In general I would say, avoid credit based sites. These are the ones that keep you talking so you spend money on credits.

So, credit (see what I did there :-)) where credit is due. You guys would have got 4 if the interface was better and 5 if you had an app.

I read the reviews here before signing up to IE, so went in with my eyes open. I have to be honest and say that I experienced a few of the negative points raised here, such as the fake profiles messaging as soon as I landed then disappearing, ladies asking for photos and then disappearing, etc. I also got what I suspect was a phishing message, inviting me to view photos on another site, but I reported it and the profile was immediately removed. I also contacted admin to cancel the auto renew on my account and that was also done immediately and without question.

I took a look around the site before deciding to take the plunge and because I hesitated in completing the sign up journey, I was offered a discounted rate for 3 weeks. £99 was a bit more palatable, so I signed up.

In terms of the engagement, it’s perfectly representative of life on and offline, in that you get out what you put in. If you use one of their computer generated profiles, the ladies will pass you by. If you send one-line messages, they will ignore you. Simples.

It’s a site for people who are looking to fill the gaps in their lives, so their going to set their sights high, and rightly so.

I have two weeks to go and am about to go out on my second date. I can’t be sure if this one will lead to anything (the first won’t), but it is proof positive that there are genuine women on the site who are looking for the same thing as the men. You just have to make and maintain an effort.

Edit: Very positive second date!

Free for women which means you get lots of trash and fakes and a few good ones. You can categorise women into:
- genuine ones, but nowadays fewer of those
- genuine ones but serial adulterers (I know), so they will connect but also connect with a lot more
- IE bots, those that appear as you join, before you leave and after your leave
- the gold diggers, suddenly very keen to swap contacts and you get some dodgy link to click on

All in all, its a lottery of some sorts. What they need to do is charge women a reasonable amount, the men get ripped off big time, before you hand over £150+ . I did meet someone nice before covid, continued meeting recently till I found out she's been meeting 2 others as well, just by chance when I changed my profile because I thought lets play the game too.

So if you like casual meets, random encounters its ok to use once you get around the bots.

Sexist beyond belief. Free for women but expensive for men. Instead of charging a reasonable rate, they are ripping off men. Levelling up to the decrement of men. Lots of fakes. Don’t bother.

It’s early days yet, but not promising. I’ve been virtually kissed twice, but the ‘selected profiles could not be viewed’ Chatted, but the message flow just goes completely cold. Asked if I would pay a train fare from Manchester to London - agreed - but then she wanted the money in her account before she bought the ticket! (I mean, come on?)
I was on I. E. once before - 4/5 yrs ago - with ok success. However this is going to be uphill. Agree with previous reviewers that the amount of interest in your profile when you’re not a paying member is vast. Then you join - very little. Feels a bit scammy - lots of computer generated profiles. Forum is a joke, the site needs updating.

Question is does IE work?
In my experience it has. However there is some work to be done. A good written profile explaining what one wants to find, will connect you with some one out there. There are no fake profiles on IE just people on the other side that either find you interesting or not.
As all hard work does pay off. I’ve had several meets with some wonderful ladies.
Then there is the connection. When you meet your date you will know that this is the person. I would like to say lastly dear fellow men don’t give up. To the ladies out there on IE please do try to reply to messages you feel are good. It could be the start to your enjoyable adventure. Nothing is certain till you meet your ie over a drink or dinner.

So. Women are free! They have the power. My affair partner shared her perspectives. And they get free membership from sending however many messages. So just when you’re thinking you’re chatting… you’re not really.

As with the design of it 😂 it’s so poor. So so poor. With all the money they make from the well to do men that can afford it. God knows it’s a con.

Ideal site for those whose marriages are no longer a 'bed of roses' - when you need that other person with whom to share thoughts and intimacy. Think of it as therapy not cheating

This is my second review. Go find my first one, it’s full of insights and truthbombs …

This one however is a OMG! This site is so archaic. It boasts a chat forum that isn’t. I’ve been using this site on and off for several years and can only remember 1 single design update. And as for the clowns who run customer service. I reported someone for posting alternative contact details in their profile. They were so clever,
Stevie Wonder would have found it, but IE customer service clowns couldn’t and merely repeating to me their rules governing contact details, was their way of dealing with it.

Honestly if it’s a slow Netflix or Prime night I urge you to engage the muppets running this site, you won’t be disappointed!

My reply to the kingdom of stupid below:

Honestly, do you operate a time share for brain cell scheme. I didn’t bemoan the fact that I couldn’t use contact details, I asked, (sarcastically, although that doesn’t always translate well in text), if you’ve changed the rules then perhaps I should be allowed to add mine, seeing as you’d approved a profile which a had an obvious Kik reference in it.

What’s the issue? Is it your bots or your customer care (in your case an oxymoron) which is at fault.

Oxymoron - bwahahaha, ‘please sir he called me a rude world.

And I have paid and used your services in the past, so I’m speaking from experience and fact!!!

Stay away from this site. They give the impression that if you buy an "enhanced" package it is only for a certain number of weeks but they then continue to charge cards at a basic £99 rate. A complete waste of time and rip off. Fake users are of monumental proportion.

Joined IE for 3 months in 2021 because I didn't want to waste my time on the dumpster fire that is Tinder for the over 50s male.
I paid for the enhanced membership and remembered to cancel the auto renew on the membership fees, this is fairly standard Internet practise so I won't criticise them for that. I was also aware of the interest generated pre sign up and was prepared for the barrage at the end as my membership was coming up for renewal, sometimes being a cynical old sod can have its advantages!
I'm quite a creative person and so I was able to put together a profile which I thought might help me to stand out, which it did to a certain extent. Yes I got messages from people 200 miles away, yes I got some bots directing me to other sites, I got a couple of scammers and at least 1 from someone who sounded slightly unhinged! But I never got further than that. Most women chatted briefly and disappeared, some seemed initially very keen others were a little to good to be true. I went on the many forums on the site to try and drum up interest that way. I also contacted customer service for some help in case I was missing something and they really did do their best to help me out bless them. But in the end I got nowhere which was hard to take, especially for a guy whos own wife isnt interested but hey thats not IEs fault! Most of the women on there obviously wanted something different from what they already had at home (the tall, dark and handsome vibe was very much in evidence) which makes sense. I don't have that so I drew a blank (5'7" greying and pretty average looking if you must know).
In conclusion then:
1. We should all be aware of the standard Internet dating site tactics, remember to cancel auto renew first thing and be aware of unwarranted "interest"
2. They do try their best to help (I was starting to feel sorry for them in the end but it wasn't to be).
3. There are scammers as well as genuine profiles but that's the same everywhere.
4. It's Internet dating so it is what it is. If you throw everything at it long enough you will probably find someone. My therapist and my mum tell me I have many great qualities, maybe I didn't sell myself?
5. Yes ladies get it free, live with it.

Thanks for getting me together with a wonderful lady!

I tried out this site for the first time in 2019 and would have rated it with 5 stars then. Was not confronted with a lady who was not genuine and had a great time!
Fast forward to 2022! This site has now been infiltrated with so many women ( or men claiming to be women) that it’s become a complete and utter waste of time.

Keep away and do your bank balance a favour!
