WHAT
THEY SAY: Elite
Personal Search is North America's largest and leading relationship
company. We have arranged over thousands of successful introductions.
WHAT WE FOUND: Fully
screen members. 22 years of successful introductions. Exclusive
selection of singles in your city. Personalized and confidential
service. All members are prescreen by them, including a background check
for safety. Their matchmakers match based on compatibility and core
values. You will receive a personal matchmaker and confidant with whom
you can consult on a one-to-one basis.
At Elite Personal Search they start with compatibility first and
foremost. They match you with people with whom you share similar
lifestyles, attitudes, values and goals to ensure that your relationship
will have a solid foundation that goes deeper than just chemistry and
attraction. This will improve your chances of having a long-lasting
relationship.
You will receive introductions to new, per-qualified
matches every 30 to 45 days or less. Your encounter begins with an
introductory phone call to discuss the details of where and when you are
going to meet. After your first date, Elite Personal Search will ask for
your feedback, and in return, offer their suggestions which may be
helpful to you. At the same time they evaluate your comments to better
select your next match.
Additionally, if your first date went reasonably well,
Elite Personal Search recommends that you meet for two or three more
dates. Although you are meeting people with whom you share common
values, it may take some time to get to know if your relationship has
potential.
The Elite Personal Search Process starts with a potential Member calling
an Information Specialist and making an appointment for an interview
with a Program Director, or by completing the initial Member profile
form on their site. An Information Specialist will setup an appointment
for you to visit with a Program Director at an Elite Personal Search
office near you. The interview process is an in-depth evaluation where
you decide if an Elite Personal Search Membership makes sense for you.
After becoming a member of Elite Personal Search you
can expect the following:
• A private consultation where you will meet with your personal
Matchmaker. At this consultation your Matchmaker will get to know you
better and will develop an understanding of the special qualities and
personality you seek.
• Next, the matchmaking process will begin and you will receive
instructions about connecting with the unique and exciting people that
you will be introduced to. You will be matched with individuals that are
balanced and counter balanced with your Key Core Compatibility Analysis
TM as well as your physical criteria, personality requirements, hobbies,
interests and much, much more.
• You will receive valuable feedback after each match in order to
continually improve your dating experiences.
• As an Elite Personal Search Member you will be in complete control of
your Membership as you pre-approve each and every referral before they

Name: Liz E-mail: Private Date posted: August 06, 2009 - 04:19 pm Message: This company is a scam. They make promises they don't keep - matches every 30 to 45 days, NEVER return phone calls or emails. High staff turn over. Buyer beware.
Name: Lenny Younge E-mail: journal@jier.org Date posted: July 15, 2009 - 08:05 am Message: I don’t know how they always manage to set me up with such great girls. But they do. I’ve been a member for exactly seven months during which I have had some great experiences. The first girl I dated actually became my girlfriend for about a month and a half. She and I weren’t so great at organizing things so we always had our match maker arrange the dates. We never got a refusal from her or never once were we forced to set things up ourselves because of lack of cooperation on the match maker’s side. Eventually we broke up, but I accept full responsibility for that. Everything this company does is great and I know that as time goes by each date will get better and better and the girls will be more perfect than the previous one. I’m not married yet but I think it’s safe to say that after dating the first girl for six weeks, my chances of happiness will rocket sky high with the work of this service.

After my divorce three years ago, I wasn't at all quick to get married again and was very unhappy. I got over it pretty well but still wasn't too thrilled about the possibility of me being alone forever. With that, I checked out this company. Lesa in the San Francisco office was extremely welcoming and sweet. Not in the way that gives you the impression that she was only interested in your money. That alone gave the will to sign up and pay the fee. I spoke with her for about three hours during a very comfortable interview. I told her all about my divorce, about my ex-husband and about the guy I wanted to meet. I told her about my childhood and about how I grew up. She even offered me coffee, cake, and other really good snacks. As I left, she patted me on the shoulder and said "I'll find you someone whether you like it or not". I left with a huge smile on my face. About a week or so later, Lesa called me with a whole list of guys she found on her records that fitted my requirements pretty well. The first guy, Brian was great. He was smart, tall, dark skinned and very good looking. We had a great time but still, we weren't for each other. Lesa called ME literally the next day ready to hear the feedback. Now that's good service. Anyway, she set me up with three more great guys who also weren't for me but she did her job very well. I went out with the next guy (Gary) two weeks later and he was perfect. The date lasted seven hours. Lesa called me again the next day with great news. Apparently, he really liked me and wanted a second date. Lesa set us up again a week later. Well, we eventually got married. It's crazy how a year before all this I was going through a really hard time and didn't want to get re-married at all. Now I'm married to the greatest guy ever.
Name: Barry E-mail: Private Date posted: May 24, 2009 - 09:06 am Message: I was actually happy with the price of this service. I thought it was going to cost me much more.
Anyway, I signed up with them a little less than a year ago and I kid you not, the first girl they set me up with was the one. We dated for eight and a half months before deciding to get married. Before I signed up with them I dated tons of different girls for six years.
This service changed my life instantly. My wife and I tell people all the time how amazing and successful they are.
Name: Fred E-mail: Private Date posted: May 20, 2009 - 04:03 am Message: The company has a great reputation the Los Angeles community. I was a member for a 3 year period before getting engaged. I know around a dozen other members, all of whom are more or less happy. It seems to me that these bad reviews are coming from a very little number of disgruntled members. I think every large company has this issue.
Name: Chris E-mail: Private Date posted: May 01, 2009 - 11:10 am Message: This company has a bad reputation, there are complaints everywhere. They promise things that they can not deliver, but will take your money anyway. Their contract is so airtight you will never get your money back.
Name: Andy E-mail: Private Date posted: March 05, 2009 - 09:22 am Message: This actually works. I was doubtful at first due to my natural stigma against paid matchmakers. After reading some reviews I gave it the go. Boy does it work, a lot more productive then friend to friend recommendations
Name: Nancy E-mail: Private Date posted: February 12, 2009 - 01:18 am Message: I wouldn't trust the better business bureau. It is not a government agency. In fact it is a pay for play organization, as I found out with my own company.
I had a great experience with this firm. They were very helpful, friendly and I had a great repore with my Matchmaker. At first things were a bit rocky, I was very picky, but after listening and taking some advice I had a great time. I learned to be more open and found a really nice guy. I don't know where it goes from here, but that is really up to me.
Name: Rob E-mail: Private Date posted: August 01, 2008 - 03:48 pm Message: I think that any service could have disagreements with customers, especially in the dating and romance industry. The best bet is to check with the Better Business Bureau before signing any contracts.
Name: Godonlyknows E-mail: Private Date posted: June 15, 2008 - 08:03 am Message: This company is a scam. Just Google Them!
CEO is "Ira Ritter"
Consistent lawsuits by their customers, and shameful employee practices.
