Promising Start, But Too Expensive for Real Connections

I signed up for Only-flirts last month hoping to meet someone genuine, and while the initial experience seemed promising, I've run into some frustrating issues. The interface is clean and there were plenty of profiles to browse through. However, after matching with a few users, I noticed a pattern. Most conversations start out engaging, but when I tried to move things to WhatsApp or suggest meeting for coffee, either I get vague responses or they suddenly go inactive.

The main problem is the pricing model. After my free credits ran out, I realized pretty much everything beyond browsing requires a paid subscription. I wanted to continue messaging someone I actually connected with, but the costs were higher than expected. The platform keeps pushing notifications to buy more credits, which feels aggressive.

On the positive side, the site is user-friendly and the verification process seems decent. The customer support did respond when I reached out about a billing question. But overall, the experience felt more transactional than genuine. I've had better luck with other dating apps that feel less pushy about monetization. If they made the messaging more accessible without constant upsells, I'd consider returning.
