Because I have provided comprehensive information about myself and my preferences for a match, I am looking forward to dates that have a strong likelihood of success. After going on 1 date I can say that It's Just Lunch (specifically Mike and Oneida) did a very good job at arranging the event and informing me about the process. The individual had several of the characteristics that I described to my coaches but I am looking forward to even closer matches in the near future.

Sheri did a great job. Answered all my questions. Gave good solid advice about how to handle the first date. Great advice about keeping it simple, casual, friendly without any pressure. Gave me the old navy officers wardroom rules: do not discuss sex, religion or politics, although she probably did not realize it. Gave great pointers on what to talk about, what to leave to 3rd or 4th date. Explained that lunch would be held in a city between my home and lady's. Discussed what to wear, being on time, being perfect gentleman, and then a couple of sheets of topics and opening comments. I have not done a "coffee date" since college, but she eased all my concerns to point. I look forward to starting the program.

This site asked me to be fair and balanced so I will do my best to comply. As told to me by women I have met and dated long-term, I am an attractive, active and fit man in my early 60s. I am also a successful alpha that is looking for a LTR and yes, I am selective as to who I date. I am not looking for eye-candy or someone that just looks good on my arm. My last relationship lasted more than three years. First, the entire front-end discussion and subsequent interview went very well. The rep was very enjoyable to work with. If you do happen to join, you may as well kiss your rep/sales agent goodbye along with your money because you won't see/hear from either one again. From that point on your interaction with IJL is solely with a Dating Director and in my case, Dave, who lives over 1000 miles away and has no idea of the size and proximity of towns/cities in the Detroit Metro area. None.
So Dave introduces me to a lovely woman, a doctor, who lives well over an hour away with two teenage sons. I tell Dave, after dragging the location where Ms.Doc lives out of him, that the distance is too great, she has two young sons (think very active in sports) and my experience from dating a doctor before, she has to be putting in 60+ hours a week. Thanks but I don't think this is a good match. Don't worry about it. So we meet nearly 45 minutes from our respective homes. Very nice, stayed for dinner but who are we kidding? This is not going to work. We actually kissed goodbye and that my friends was nearly FOUR-months ago. Since then Dave has presented a half dozen women to me that I have not found appealing enough to even meet for a cocktail. Not one.
I have spent an inordinate amount of time on the phone with Dave, explaining to him my primary hot buttons of what I find attractive in women. Their interests, intelligence, activities, looks and profession, to the degree of actually sending him pictures of women I have dated! I have attempted to reconnect with my rep, which is impossible so I am always reconnect on the phone to Dave. Whom I have asked more than one to be switched out because if this is Dave's A-game, I would have been way ahead taking someone from Match to a 5-Star restaurant and enjoying the decadence.
At my request, last week I placed my membership on hold. I've burnt through 2/3rds of my membership contract period and I have met one woman. ONE! Too bad she lives 90 minutes away, works 60+ hours a week and has two young active sons. Other than that, she had it all going on. I am posting this to save those of you who are on the fence, contemplating joining, to really consider your options. IJL has not been a gateway to a panacea of potential LTR mates for me. Joining a local dinner club (Table for Eight), going to more wine tastings or attending higher end social events would have been more enjoyable, I would have met more perspective women and I would have money left over for a nice 18 year old bottle of a single-malt scotch.

I had pretty much decided to try It's Just Lunch so I called Stacey, who had left marketing messages on my phone several times. She did her sales pitch and I told her I thought I'd like to try to service. She took my credit card information and said I'd be hearing from them and would be receiving an email agreement. After I got off the phone, I checked out reviews for It's Just Lunch and it began to look like they didn't do much more than any other, less expensive, dating services. Having second thoughts, I emailed Stacey and told her I'd changed my mind. The email agreement arrived in my email and I didn't open it or e-sign it. I had a call from Stacey and told her, again, I'd changed my mind. She countered with a heavy sales pitch...that I'd do great and would find a quality match. Again, I told her I wasn't interested.
After we got off the phone, I check my credit card status online. My account had not been charged. Good. I wouldn't have to worry about a refund. Stacey called and left a few messages in the following days, encouraging me to reconsider It's Just Lunch. Ten days later, I downloaded my credit card transactions. My account had been charge $** a couple of days AFTER I told Stacey I did not want the service. I called her but she didn't answer so I called another number I found for the service and spoke to someone else. When I explained what had happened, she sounded very sympathetic and said she'd contact Stacey to have the situation resolved.
A few minutes later, I got a call from Julie who identified herself as a supervisor. She started a sales pitch but I quickly told her I was not interested in the service and wanted my credit card refunded. She persisted. Again, I told her I did not want any services from It's Just Lunch and I had never signed their agreement and that I just wanted my money back. She said she'd take care of it. To follow up, she sent me her contact information. That was several days ago. There is still no refund showing on my account. I have sent 3 emails and left a voicemail for Julie. I'm still waiting for my refund.

Signed up with service in July 2014. During the intake I was very clear on my requirements and probed on whether the service had men who fit the profile I was seeking. As a 50+ professional, my basic requirements were around healthy and gainfully employed. Was very disappointed that It's Just Lunch had challenges meeting these basic requirements, and it's 15 months later and the contract hasn't been fulfilled.
It's not as if I've turned down a boatload of dates, rather I get a monthly email from the dating consulting that says that "We are still working on your next match as we are being very selective for you in the recruiting process to find the type of people you are looking for. We will be in touch soon and if you need anything from me, please do not hesitate to contact me." I filed a complaint with my credit card company, but the It's Just Lunch contract is written in a way that you can't hold them accountable. As an ** over 50+, I would not recommend the service.

Sheri was polite, considerate, and informative throughout our meeting. She listened well and seem to give excellent advice in a friendly manner. She was also very attuned to self image issues, which is very important in a setting such as this. Her eye contact was quite good, as well. If ever I need further advice in this dating process, I will certainly contact her.

So far I have pleased with the service provided. I appreciate the confidential involved and the form of security used with the FaceTime interview and showing a form of identification. To me that is very important. The follow-up contacts are friendly, reassuring and timely. I appreciate that the counselors are trying to refine the matching process to make it more comfortable for everyone involved.

When I first started I was unhappy and dissatisfied with the service I received. It seem like I was more proactive and putting in more work than my dating coordinator. After expressing my concerns I was switched to Bianka and Aleisha. As of last month it does seem they are putting forth an effort and make this experience worth the money I invested. I am hoping that it will be consistent. Both of them are friendly and lately have put an effort to communicate with me. This is important and I think they are more communicative than when I initially started.

I give this company 1 star for the ability to get me to pay over $** for a terrible experience. The matches were a mystery to me. I am not quite sure how they picked my dates and they won't reveal that to you either if you inquire except that they have a process. Truly, I question the integrity of the company and if you have a complaint they send you to someone within the same office. You can count on getting a letter or a phone call as though nothing ever happened. The whole experience has been disappointing and strange. DO NOT WASTE YOUR MONEY. I must say I used the corporate IJL and that could be part of the problem. I would consider this experience a scam. When you begin to question the process, they are quick to tell you their contractual obligation and yours as well.

Please do the research before signing up with this dating service. I signed up in August, 2014 and have been extremely disappointed with the quality of two of three dates this service provided to me. I did have one decent match, but asked the consultant to keep looking on my behalf. During the sales pitch, they promise what a great age group (50+) is to date but the reality is they do not have sufficient matches in their data base, especially for **. I have had 4 dating consultants and only one acceptable date over the course of a year. My contracts states I am eligible for 4 matches, from August, 2014 to November, 2015 and there has been 3 matches. I find this terribly unacceptable. This service may work for individuals who are in their 30's and 40's in large metropolitan cities, but not anything older, especially in my geographic area (south).
On two occasions I wrote letters to Melissa Brown, President of IJL regarding my disappointment and she merely passed my letters to a consultant, with no results. When I asked about a refund, the response was that was impossible. Perhaps Ms. Brown does not care about the dissatisfied customers because she has those who are please with the service, but we paid our money too and our feedback should be addressed.

Initially I thought the whole organization was a sham. I actually was going to go to a lawyer about it. No one returned my calls. Of course initially when they were trying to get your money and trying to get you to join it was different. Then no one returned calls and for $2800 nothing was happening. I was furious. It is better now but now great. There are few men that I have been introduced to, probably because there are few in my age range. I think when I asked when deciding to join if there were men they should have been more upfront. I think Princess is trying.
