XFactordates History

Xfactor speed dating had been operating for several years however we have heard repeated horror stories about the conduct of this company for a very long time. They have, reportedly, systematically taken money from people without providing a service in return. The dating industry is unregulated and as such relies on the good moral conduct of those running individual businesses. 

Sadly this moral fibre has been lacking from the directors of xfactordates. 

The company has recently fallen into liquidation as a result of very poor business management and the assets have been sold. 

Because of the bizarre way that company liquidation in the UK works there is a possibility that one of the former Xfactordates directors could purchase the assets of the failed business and re-start operations under a slightly different trading name at the same time freeing themselves of the debts owed to honest creditors. Naturally this is immoral but it is within the law of the land in the UK. We are not stating that this will happen but there is a chance you will see this company re-emerge in at some point in the future and it's possible that the original owners will be running it again. 

Our friendly advice would be to avoid using this business at all costs.

ORIGINAL DATING IN THE PRESS

HOW IT WORKS

The beauty of Speed Dating London lies in its no-nonsense approach. You take an equal number of single girls and guys, put them in a room and give them a few minutes to chat with every other member of the opposite sex.

When you get there

Original speed dating events in London normally begin at 7.30pm. You will need to register with our hosts and to begin with they will issue you with a score sheet. This will help you to keep track of the singles that you would like to meet again and perhaps go on a date with. After a short period of mingling, your host for the evening who will run through detailed instructions and give you your starting position if you are a guy or table for the event if you are a girl.

Meet & Mingle

A London speed dating event is split into two halves, each lasting around an hour, there will be an interval at half time of about 15 minutes for speed dating London. You will have between 4 and 5 minutes with each person, after which you need to tick a box on your score sheet - "yes, I would like to meet this person again" or "no. Thanks but no thanks". Or "friend" if you'd like to get to know them platonically. Make sure that you do this after each date to keep track. Afterwards there is an opportunity for everyone to meet and mingle informally - this is often where the real action begins, so make sure you don't disappear too quickly!

Complete your score sheet

After the event you simply tick who you liked on the Original Dating website and the site works about your matches automatically. If the dates you have ticked as a "yes" have reciprocated you have a match. You will be able to view the first names and message them via our site online without revealing your email address until you are ready to. You'll be having proper first dates in no time.
