Review Time
My experience with Vida Select has been mostly positive, but I wouldn’t really recommend it for anyone under 30 — especially early 20s like me (I’m 24).The team itself has been great. My matchmaker, Francesca, actually found several profiles that fit what I’m looking for, and the writers handled messaging super well. No shade to them at all — they did their part.The issue is just dating app culture for people my age. My profiles went live about three weeks ago, and I’ve gotten a ton of matches — like genuinely top-tier Hinge performance for Chicago. But converting those matches into real dates has been rough. I’ve only had one date, she showed up 20 minutes late, and it wasn’t a great match. Another date canceled the night before, so I had to scrap the dinner reservation.So if you’re in your early–mid 20s, have high standards, and want something serious, Vida might not feel worth it just because dating in this age bracket is chaotic no matter how good your profile looks. I think their service shines more for older age groups where follow-through is more consistent.Overall: solid company, great staff — just not the best fit for younger people dealing with all the flakiness that comes with app-based dating right now.
The VIDAselect team and Shyne truly helped me a lot — from selecting the right photos and creating my profile, to writing messages and even setting up dates.I’m not that young anymore, and honestly, I was prepared to meet at least 10 people within 3 months before finding the right match.But thanks to their precise matchmaking and smart strategy, I met a wonderful person in less than a month — on my second date!I’m so grateful for their support and guidance.I’ll keep doing my best and hope to share more happy updates soon!
My UHNW friend mentioned he tried it once. It didn’t work for him, but I thought I’d give it a shot. To book the first call, I had to fill out a bunch of questions on the website, one of which peculiarly asked for my salary. I don’t have a salary since my income is entirely passive from my capital, so I entered something average. I also sent them a link with a detailed description of whom I’m looking for. I believe this might have been the reason they didn’t even show up for the call.I wanted to reschedule since I never heard from them, but the confirmation email emphasized how much time their specialists spend preparing and asked to respect their time, so I didn’t. Apparently, they didn’t even check that document.It seems their target audience is 9-to-5 Big Tech workers with poor social skills who fail to get dates because they rely on Tinder. If you have any real social skills or a lifestyle outside that narrow box, this service won’t be helpful.
Between running my business and two teenagers I had zero time for dating. Was worried about wasting what little free time I have on the wrong people. They found men who understood my schedule, busy in their own right. Seeing someone now who actually brought homemade cookies to our first date - major points! Setup took longer than expected but once we were going, it worked great. If you're a busy parent this actually works.
Although my initial experience with VIDA was less than desirable, I want to share how impressed I’ve been with how the company handled it. When I voiced my concerns, Rosalia reached out to me immediately. She explained that my original matchmaker was new in her role and that there were very limited suitable matches available at that time. Most importantly, she took full ownership of the situation and went above and beyond to make things right.Rosalia’s professionalism, compassion, and genuine commitment completely restored my trust in VIDA. She exemplifies what excellent customer service should look like. I now feel confident recommending VIDA to anyone seeking a professional matchmaking company with a truly customer-focused culture.………..I signed up for Vida Matchmaking 2 weeks ago. While my matchmaker didn’t make any recommendations to enhance my profile—which I was fine with—my first match was quite surprising and disappointing. He was 23 years older than me, even though I clearly indicated a preferred age range of seven years above or below my age. He also follows a religious belief system very different from mine, which made me question whether my preferences were fully considered.I reached out to my matchmaker to share these concerns, and although she promised to call me back, I haven’t heard back yet. This lack of follow-up has been frustrating, as I expected a more personalized and attentive experience.I’m currently considering canceling the service, but I may give it one more chance given some of the positive reviews I’ve read. I’m still hopeful that Vida can provide a more thoughtful and tailored approach moving forward.
VIDA was able to create a flexible work plan with me. We agreed on the objectives and the amount of work. They build me a great profile and assisted in monitoring my accounts. They produced the 3 really great dates for me. My account rep, Francesca, was particularly easy to work with. I was skeptical of On Line dating, but now I am seeing a wonderful woman.
The service does not deliver as promised. Essentially they function as a Cyrano ghost writing for the client on multiple online dating applications. They craft your profiles, they edit your photos and then they ghostwrite. Packages start at different levels for different numbers of hours per month that they will be servicing the client. My experience was not what it was hyped to be at the initial interview and intake session. Although they didn't make specific promises they implied that they have an internal database of users that they use in addition to online dating services to find the perfect match for you. I was extremely skeptical because I live in a relatively rural area small Urban population of approximately 380,000 people. They were very enthusiastic that they would be able to deliver within a short period of time. They actually delivered nothing. Almost 1,800 out for the first month, multiple technical difficulties where they were unable to appropriately access the websites. They also failed to tell you up front that there product violates the fair use terms of pretty much every online dating service that does not allow ghost riding. This is strictly forbidden. I was almost banned from one platform because of this. They fail to mention any of this in the initial intake and only when it rears its ugly head later do they come forward. They said yes we violate the terms but we're not malicious in doing so we're genuine and honest in representing you.Overall it does not appear that they responded to matches timely, it does not appear that the number of hours which I paid for were the number of hours of service that I actually received. The quality of the communication with the matches was subpar. I actually had better success managing everything on my own. They are essentially a very expensive secretarial service that manages online dating accounts. I have not seen any evidence of an internal database of which they spoke in our initial interview, which would match me with potential partners. The only thing I saw was online activity which did not appear to be consistent with the amount of hours that I was paying for and the quality of communication was not what I expected.If you do not live in a major metropolitan area, the success you experience will probably be no better than what you are currently experiencing managing your own online dating profiles if you are a decent communicator. I do not see any value in this service. Again, they are very nice and courteous however, they did not deliver and there is no value added here in fact, in Brooklyn we would call this a rip off. If they were a solid company they would have a money back policy and I would be getting a refund right now. They did not make good on any of the promises they made or things they alluded to in our intake conversation. $1,800 out of pocket and nothing to show for it. As soon as this review went up somebody contacted me from their customer service department it was the same person that I had sent emails to telling them during my tenure with the organization that I was extremely disappointed in the service and my experience wasn't good. She never reached out to me to discuss until this review went up. She asked what I thought would be a good solution I said a full refund she laughed. That's their customer service for you.
Had this really rough breakup that left me second-guessing everything about myself, so starting to date again felt impossible. Like I forgot how to even have a conversation. My sister kept bugging me to try something professional instead of fumbling around Tinder. Matchmaker was patient while I figured out what I actually wanted - turns out I wanted someone who gets excited about sci-fi and doesn't mind staying up late talking at diners. The guy I've been seeing for couple monts quoted dune on our first date and I nearly melted. Took longer than expected to get going and I had to re-explain my preferences a couple times but it worked out
