They also tried to bring up their numbers by hosting way to many events and often spamming their members on a daily basis with up coming events and last minute tickets. There may be several other factors that came into this, some speculations into the business practices not being up to par as well as major layoffs. This is according to a source who wishes to remain nameless.
In my personal dealings with the company, it appeared to me that customer service seemed to be one of the bigger issues fast impressions had, it seemed to build a reputation for being pretty terrible service with unorganized events and contractor hosts who did not know what they were doing. You only have to look as far as the common review sites like Yelp or google reviews to see that I was not the only one who experienced this.
I took it upon myself to speak with people who have either worked with fast impressions or have dealt with the company in the past from a business standpoint. In many cases this lead to cost cutting and higher prices. Essentially paying more for less.

I eventually concluded that because FI could not fill in the seats they decided to do the wrong thing and pay some girls to rock up and just to fill in the seats. That is my theory that was confirmed by many guys and girls. I was given a lifetime non refundable credit and offered events well out of my criteria.
I considered it a scam just like it's sister dating site P. I was a Fast Impressions member for several years and regularly attended the events. Disappointed they suddenly ceased without an explanation to members.

At least my inbox isn't flooded with their emails anymore to inappropriate events. Most were over my age limit and often were for events in another city! Or often I would get texts about the events that already had happened. One of the last events was at one of the dodgiest pubs in Parramatta where the host was very unfriendly and unwelcome. Have joined Sydney Speed Dating but hoping another company will start up and fill the gap Fast Impressions couldn't.
It's okay to go occasionally. I went to the first meeting about 7 years ago and to the second one recently I don't date much as you can see. If you wait till the day before the event, the price is much cheaper from half price to about a quarter of full price, especially for men, a species always in demand since many die young at war or because they are married: In the two meetings I have attended there was nobody I felt strikingly interesting and I had the feeling I was attending a job interview with all the other applicants also present.
Having said that, nobody found me interesting either. Hence, if your friends are busy and you need to talk to someone, other than your psychologist, you can always book last minute to meet uninteresting people who will also find you uninteresting. One could say that, at the end of the day or night , it's a 'win-win' situation if you pay only a quarter of the price.
Questions & Answers
I am convinced after attending a number of events over the last 2 years that fast impressions is an elaborate scam. I attended an event one month ago, once again they were short of women so a few guys had to miss dates. Just to test the session i selected all 8 women as matches to see what response i would get. The next day I only got 1 match.

Now fast impressions only share email addresses of your chosen match no phone numbers. I emailed the supposed match but never got a reply via email.. The highlight for me for the event was the finger food! The dates were quite ordinary. Don't waste your money.
Questions & Answers
Will not use again. I have been attending Fast Impressions regularly for 15 months and have been to many of their events. I believe that they generally run a good night and compared to other dating places it is very good value for money.

The problem I have found is the quality of the females who attend. I find this very rude on behalf of the ladies that go and sometimes you have to wonder why do they attend such events? There should be more of an emphasis on the females doing the work, such as contacting their matches. This way it might sort out the genuine women from the non-genuine ones. I have been other single events to and it is the same where the women seem to be there for more a girls night out. This is very disappointing for the men as they to me seem to be all genuinely looking for a relationship.
Sort your house out Fast Impressions! After vowing to give up 5 months ago due to low female turn out and cancelled events I stupidly decided to sign up to two more events these past two weeks.
I understand if girls tend to be more flaky and bail at the last minute, but it's always the women who don't turn up, so in future book more gals then guys, and maybe let the women sit out at the bar for once. And while you're at it, how about giving every poor person who got shafted a free entry into another one of your events, or at least a discount? At the least then they might give you a second chance before they decide your events are a crock of shlt!
Fast Impressions have really gone down hill in the last 6 months. Fast Impressions was acquired by Plenty Of Fish last year and has since really gone down hill. I have been doing speed dating with them for a couple of years now and I have really noticed the difference. There use to be couples a night, these days you are lucky to get 8, and they charge the same; also most were called that day to fill up numbers.
