“Be very aware of the terms and conditions”

As per other reviews, you'll learn that Global Personals operate a 'white label' dating service - which means that there are many affiliated websites who will share your data.
One of the many sites, which in this instance is operated by them, is Justsingles.If signing up from the home page, be very clear of the following:
"By clicking 'Submit' you agree to our Terms of Use."
Naturally, the text size is as small as possible, and pay strict attention to '6. Term and Termination'.
Whilst they certainly have a team able to respond to email, they only accept cancellation by phone during the working hours most people are often unlikely to get in touch. The only reason that I can see is that they will try and persuade you to extend membership etc.They will not make it easy to terminate.
Whist the pricing is intentionally very attractive for those who sign up to a 12 month term, I would recommend testing the water first for a month, and ensure that you are not tied into an auto renew payment with them. Give it a month, and see if the calibre of other members is what you are after.
In my first two weeks, there seemed to be a lot of interest, I paid upfront for the year, and then the quality of interactions declined dramatically. I do not think this is intentional. Google 'Global Personal Fraud' and you'll see what activity they have been caught out doing such as faking profiles.
Save your money and go elsewhere.
