I own a busy public relations company in London and when I became single again last month I decided to try the Internet.

I often work late during the week (and at some point most weekends) and frankly don't have time to play the dating game any more in the hope that I may stumble across the man of my dreams in the local wine bar. So I turned to the Internet to see what the dating websites had to offer?

I know exactly what I want in a man and what I liked about Dateclub.com was I could type in exactly what I was looking for and see their profile and photos before making any kind of commitment to meet. I could easily filter out men that were not suitable and also search within my home area.

I have to admit I really enjoyed it, because where else can you see thousands of single men that you have pre-selected?

The other thing I liked was the safety aspect. I felt a lot more comfortable searching for men via the website than I have been on nights out. My contact details were never displayed and I had full control over the whole process.

I have now met a very sweet, like-minded gentleman on your site and we are getting along fantastically so thank you for all your help!

I was introduced to online dating by a friend who met his girlfriend on Dateclub.com.

I had recently split with my long-term girlfriend and having never been into the bar and club scene, always wondered where intelligent women go when they are looking for men? Now I know - the Internet.

I couldn't believe how many good-looking single women were available. I registered my details which was very straight-forward and within an hour I had my first reply.

About a week later I came across Lisa. We got chatting and it transpired she only lived just down the road from me. We arranged to meet at a local bar and have been together ever since.

The best bit is the joining fee because it cost me less than a night out. I am very impressed. Thank you.

I am just writing to thank you for putting me in touch with Maggie.

I went through a painful divorce last year and it has taken me a good year to get my confidence back, but I recently decided to see if I could find any single women in my area using the Internet as I didn't feel up to loud nightclubs on a Saturday night.

I did try Personal Ads for a while but it seemed very impersonal and I couldn't filter the replies I was getting.

I met Maggie on Dateclub.com. After sending a few messages to one another, we decided to meet up and yes, you guessed it, we fell in love almost immediately.

We are very happy and both wanted to thank you for helping us to find one another!

David, 44, Shropshire

I could never have imagined that after a 25 year marriage and divorce at the age of 49, I could be swept off my feet again, but it has happened. I still can't believe that I met Roger on the Internet.

I only got my first computer 3 months ago and after reading about online dating in a magazine I was intrigued and decided to have a look at a few websites.

I was pleasantly surprised at the number of interesting men that were single and in my area. After 25 years of marriage you get to know what is important in a partner and what I liked about some of the better sites was that I could search for certain characteristics.

I was also pleasantly surprised by the photos as there were some really nice looking single and divorced men. I decided to sign up with Dateclub.com because their photos were particularly good and needed a website that was very easy to use.

Then one day I got a message from Roger and I don't know what it was about his words that made me look at his profile, but he seemed too good to be true. I replied to his message and couldn't believe this man was for real. I hadn't been out on a date for years and was initially very nervous, but something about Roger put me completely at ease.

When we met it was like I had known him all my life, it was very magical and we are now engaged to be married.

Thank you so much for putting us in touch with each other. I never thought I would find love again at my age but I am happier than I have ever been and would recommend your service to everyone. Bless you.
