Friends Reunited Dating Review (FriendsReunitedDating.co.uk)

At some point in 2021-2023, Friends Reunited Dating has closed.

As of January, 2016, we reevaluated Friends Reunited Dating and deemed it did not meet our minimum criteria for a review anymore. For this reason we have decided to retire the review and move FriendsReunitedDating.com from the United Kingdom Dating category to Not Recommended.

If you are looking for a dating service similar to what Friends Reunited Dating use to offer, you might want to consider eHarmony UK and Match UK.

Below, we have left our original Friends Reunited Dating review for your continued reading. The review received its last major update on October 1, 2010.

FriendsReunitedDating.com was launched in 2003 and now has almost one million members, making it one of the largest online dating sites in the United Kingdom. A sister site of the popular Friends Reunited website (with over 19 million members), this dating site is designed for meeting new friends as a potential partner. You have all the tools on this site you need to find a date. Friends Reunited Dating is well laid out and all the features are easy to find and simple to use. The site is designed for singles looking for the basics of a dating service. If you are interested in very detailed profiles or to be able to search on more than a select few parts of the profile, this dating site may not be your best fit. That being said, Friends Reunited Dating will fit most users’ needs.

It is free to join Friends Reunited Dating and view and search profiles. Give it try and find your match today!
