    I've been w/ IJL for over a year now. Initially I didn't have much faith in this service, I thought they would set me up w/ whoever they find available. But I was wrong. They take their time to understand what you want and they truly try to match you with the best possible candidate. Sometimes few weeks go by before they call me with a match which tells me they've been looking around. ** is my current match maker after I had a date that went sideways. She spend a long time reassessing my needs and has been setting me up w/ quality matches since. Actually I went out last night on another first date, loved the venue ** picked and had so much fun w/ him! I'm looking forward to a second date. =)

    My past experience with IJL has been horrible but because of ** it has gotten better. ** is a lovely person to work with and I can make her laugh. She is trying really hard to help me find a date but it looks like he isn't out there. She has tried harder than any of the MANY, MANY other people who work for IJL did. She gets back in touch with me if I call or send her an email where the past employees didn't. I am very satisfied with ** and hope I don't have to work with anyone else. She seems to care about me where the past people who worked for IJL that were suppose to be helping me didn't care who I was. They made it seem like I was a bother and not a customer. I wish IJL would get more employees who care like she does.

    So far been a member for just on a month, and only had 1 date so far. The date was civil and the girl they set me up with had potential, but she didn't seem very interested in going past the first date. This was especially hard for me, as I just lost my wife in March 2015 and I was hoping to rebuild my life with someone new. The quality of matches have NOT even come close to what was described and from the MANY reviews on Yelp, it looks like I am not the only one who was scammed.

    It's Just Lunch advertises an exclusive, private, and individualized dating service for busy professionals. They take thousands of dollars and promise matches exclusively picked just for you. Instead they ignore your wishes and set you up with who they have available even though they don't meet any of your expectations. IJL then says that the process is fluid and they are fine tuning it for you after each date. When your contract is 10 months or 7 dates for $4,000 then each date should match what I am looking for. That would be individualized match making just for you! They mislead and have not come through with their promises of well matched dates. This is fraudulent in my book.

    I am looking to join the class action suit if possible. I hope the suit is successful so no other consumers have to go through what I went through. I still don't understand why IJL couldn't refund my money and cancel my membership when they clearly did not have any matches for me. I was an IJL client 7 years ago and it was so much more organized, cheaper, and professional. I even recommend the service to many of my friends. This is not the same company! They completely restructured and charge 4x more money with less personal service.

    I paid for my daughter a membership for 6 months. I wish I would have believed the reviews. I actually spoke with whom I will call the sales lady and she did convince me that the service was not as the negative reviews stated. Before paying the sales lady had all the time available to talk to me and my daughter. Once they got my $2800 the communication dropped off quick. For $2800 my daughter has had 1 date in over 2 months. My daughter is a very talented and beautiful woman so if they are having trouble getting dates for her I can't imagine how it may be for some. They actually told her before they got my money they had 5 or 6 people ready for her to be matched with. Please save your money. The only positive is the 1 date she has had is that it is convenient that they set up the date. Just do not believe them that they keep communicating. They definitely do not. Very regretful I paid $2800 for this.

    I signed up for It's Just Lunch services a year ago with a very optimistic attitude. My experience begin with the first date canceling and IJL did not set up another date until over a month later after I contacted several people within the company and attempted to cancel. My contract stated I would be set up on 10 dates within that year and was only set up with 7. I would not be upset if even one of those dates had the potential of blossoming into something. After each date you are each asked to provide feedback. I provided feedback and what I was looking for and every time, I was set up with the same type of guy that I shared no common interests. It was also stated in my contract that I would have a session with a dating coach 6 months into my membership. A coach did not contact me until 2 weeks before my membership ended. I have reached out to IJL to address these concerns with no response back.

    If you are considering signing up, know that you will not see a picture of the individual they are setting you up with and you will be given very little information on the person. As I mentioned, I had to attempt to cancel early on in order to get any dates lined up and they still were not able to set me up on 10 dates within a year’s time. I wasted $2500 on what I thought was a reputable company & a good investment for my future. Do your research before spending your hard-earned cash.

    My conversation with ** was very cordial and productive. We were able to review several issues and questions I had dealing with my matches and with IJL in general. I found the information she provided regarding the feedback my matches provided helpful and hopefully will provide me with a framework to be more appealing to women I go on dates with in the future. I am slightly frustrated that this session came after 9 of my 10 matches and I have very little opportunity to apply the information I am being provided with. And it is obviously the placement of this service is also a marketing ploy to attempt to extend my membership.

    After 22 months my 12 month contract finally ended. The pain is over. This a company that has no idea how to treat, work with, or offer any type of competent customer service. They promise a great experience yet they have no idea on how to deliver this. I went through 6 different dating directors and only the first took the time to get to know me. How could the following 5 even know how to match me? After that, the dates I was matched up with met none of my criteria. What was I told, it was their decision who I went out with. Ask yourself, why would I pay someone to fix me up if they are not going to respect my desires for the type of person I want to meet. My wish list meant nothing. I would strongly suggest a better way to spend this money is to make a worthwhile donation to a good charity. That way you will feel good about what you have done and someone will get benefit.

    Working with IJL is a one way relationship, all about them. It took me three calls over three weeks to get a return call from a manager regarding what was going on with my membership as my current dating director had not called me back or returned emails. This is typical. I found out he was promoted and as per usual, no one contacted me. They have your money. You have a worthless contract. When you finally reach someone and explain your situation they tell you they will look into it and call you back. They don't.

    They finally responded to me as I told someone at the main number I was being interviewed on the national news about dating as a fifty something. They called. This person who I will call ** told me I had used all of my dates and told me the name of the last two. I never went out with either of them. As with the previous 8, none of these ladies came close to what I was looking to meet. ** offered me a date with one of them. I told her I had enough. If this blog keeps one person from joining then my efforts have not been in vain. This is a bad place to get involved with. There is at least a 95 percent chance you will regret it and certainly regret spending your hard earned income. As always, buyer beware.

    In this digital age it's actually a bit refreshing to be able to interact with a team who's looking out for you. The IJL team made me feel very welcomed from the moment we began communicating. The process was a little slow to get started, they'll forewarn you that your first few matches might not be on target, but they are necessary to help them learn about what you like and don't like. I think that it took me 4 - 5 dates before I found the right person. My GF however, only required 2. We've been together ever since!

    While the price point may be a little daunting, I personally think that it's worth it. I'd tried many other dating services at a few hundred dollars per year, but none seemed to provide the personalization that you'll receive with IJL. The flip side is that the price point ensures that you won't be matched with the person who looks good on paper, but has no sense of personal or financial responsibility. So, should you use It's Just Lunch? In a word,"yes!".

    I'm so surprised to see any glowing reviews from IJL. I've been on 9 dates and every date, spoke ill of them. Every date. Unprofessional people, misleading staff (aka they promise you what you want but once they have your cake then they say you misunderstood), too much travel (traveling 2 hours for a date is ok by IJL standards). I could go on and on. Do not use this service.

    You will do an hour and a half intake so they can find your "match." You will be very specific about what you want. Who you are. What you enjoy. They will promise you they have multiple "matches" in your area. You sign up. Someone else will call you to schedule a meeting with a date coordinator - you will travel to said meeting. You will not hear further from them for 7 weeks. Your first date will be scheduled - oh my gosh your date is "pick 12 glowing descriptives." The date will be set. On the day of your date - which by-the-by is for 6pm, (which seems a funny time to enjoy lunch), you will meet someone who you have nothing in common with and would not have ever struck up a conversation with this person if you were stranded on a life raft with them.

    But hey, it's the first date, you'll tweak it with your account rep at IJL - oops - that person no longer works there, someone else calls you 7 weeks later to schedule a date, see above for procedure. On the day of the date you receive a phone call that said date has cancelled, (you will need to keep a record of these as they will later include them as "dates" against your subscription). Now you arrive at your 8th date - the last 2 have been agnostics and you mention when you joined that you believed in God during your hour and a half "intake" and that you didn't think you had a lot in common with an agnostic, or how you enjoy exercising and 2 of the dates have never exercised in their life outside of watching a bowling match on TV, or how none of the dates you went on really had anything in common with you.

    You will be told and I quote, "We are trying to match you up with people you wouldn't typically go out with to broaden your horizons." Yow! Here's what they're good for - if you have trouble going out on dates then use this service to start to get the ball rolling - feel more comfortable with the process - they are not a matching service - they give little thought to that - they are an inventory service, if there's someone about your age within a 300 mile radius, (you mean if you met someone and "fell" in love with them 300 miles would be too far for you to travel -- this is an actual statement from my IJL coordinator), of you then Voila! You're a match!

    I recommend that instead of giving IJL $3,000.00 you, say for the next 6 months ask 10 people you're interested in on a date. Meet them at the grocery store, yoga class, functions, church anywhere. At least then you'll have an idea of where they are prior to your date - what they believe, how they live. IJL has no idea of this. Use the money you've saved to buy someone you love something - or better yet buy nothing...

    It has been 1 yr and 6 months with 4 dates. The first one was 3 hrs away and the 3rd was way out of my age range (60 plus a cane). The dating coordinator keeps changing. Months without contact (find out the coordinator left and they could not find replacement), stood up by dating coordinator for the face to face, which finally occurred about 6 months into this mess, mislead and very disorganized. I sent my tracking log of issues and asked to speak to someone in charge. My request was always declined. I contacted the corporate office with no calls back. It is franchised and corp. doesn't do anything. My complaints were never resolved. For the amount of money spent, I would expect much better customer service! IJL has my numerous complaints in writing already and in my file.

    Date on 3/8/15 with **. Going into this date, I was frustrated and skeptical because of the turnover of 3 dating consultants in less than 30 days with no one taking the time to talk to me to get to me but rather "read the notes in my file." Everyone was getting promoted to the new IJL program which to me was confusing since they were batting 0% with my matchups to date. Secondly I was frustrated after experiencing a total mismatched date that was a total bust with a 60 mile drive to meet half way and then to find out the ONLY thing we had in common was that we liked dogs.

    I felt they were throwing spaghetti at the wall to see if it would stick just to get me on a date. Sunday's match was everything but a plate of spaghetti. ** set up a great location that was low key and casual which I had requested numerous times but never got. The date lasted 3 hours and was filled with easy conversation and many shared interests and backgrounds. This was the best match up so far so we'll see what happens next. ** seems to be on top of it.

    The company promised at least two dates per month with quality men, as defined by successful in business, established, non-criminal men with similar interests and goals as mine. I have yet to go on a date with anyone to meet even 50% of that criteria. The response to my concerns is always that they are trying to find the right match and they have someone else in mind. The girls that they have working at the office in Milwaukee are immature and inexperienced. Unethical conduct to sell this product when the company clearly has far less male clients than female. Yet the employees refuse to admit that they cannot deliver the promised service and return the thousands of dollars I spent, which regrettably was not spent on saving for my kids' future. I explained my vulnerability when I signed up, only to be taken advantage of and lied to once again.

    I can and will be the first to complain about service, but I also the first to want to recognize and compliment outstanding service. I had a REALLY rough go with IJL for the first half of my term with the service, with at least 10 different people calling and saying they were my new "dating" director, in which I had to explain over and over again what I was looking for in a companion, only to be set up with someone outside that criteria.

    When Debbie ** introduced herself and I explained my previous "issues" with the service, she gave me her word, that if I could update her and really go over what I was looking for that should would put her 110% effort in as well. After that initial call, I have been on two dates in which I was matched to the "type" of person I had requested versus, my other dating directors on who they thought I should go out with. This additional level of service and professionalism is why I signed up with IJL and that Debbie ** is a great ambassador for your service, in which she meets and exceeds all my expectations, and hopefully will find a long term relationship.

The turn over rate at this company is extremely high as I am now on my fourth dating manager. It seems they are picking warm bodies for me to go on dates with rather than looking at how we, the people they serve, are asking for in whom we date.

Kim is someone I feel like I can be open and honest with what I am looking for. She is funny, witty and passionate, most importantly, she cares very much about her clients. What separates her from the norm is that not only does she take her time to listen to me, but also she gives me some really good suggestions about what I need to focus on the most.

    I learned a lot from her. She has excellent people skills, which is something I feel lacking at IJL based on the experience I had in the past. She is one of very few to call me after my date to see how the date ended and what she can do to find a better match for my next date. Because of her, I feel I can find true love through IJL.
