How do you know if these Russian women are real and how do I know the letters I receive are written by the women from Russia and not your agent?
Every Russian woman who wants to join our network has to visit our agent with proof of identity which will be their internal passports. Russian people have 2 passports. An international one and a national one. When someone marries in Russia they will have to provide their internal passport which is stamped and when they divorce too. This passport will list their children as well and their current address. Our agents have to send scans of all hand written and signed applications to our head office in Sevastopol to be verified before they are added to our network. All original letters from women have to be kept and produced as and when we ask for them. We are currently working on a system whereby you will be able to receive a scan of the original hand written reply sent to you through our mail forwarding service.
As you can see it's very difficult for a single woman to scam through us and also very difficult for an agent to falsely write letters through us. And Russian scammers don't bother trying to get on our network when they can join a free site with an anonymous email address and wait for the flood of emails from the unsuspecting.
I am concerned about the fact that some of these Russian women have dozens and sometimes hundreds of hits for addresses. Surely they have found a suitable man? Why are they still listed?
I get asked about this a lot. We are unlike other websites that hide these figures. I suppose other websites don't want you to see this information because it discourages men buying addresses of ladies whose addresses have been ordered often. But we display it so that you can see our agency is
above board, honest and does not hide information. Yes some of our women have had their addresses ordered 100's of times but they are still available. The main reason being that they have
NOT met a suitable man. Sure they may have had many men write but this statistic might interest you. Out of 100 men who order an address of a lady only 1 man will end up making the effort to fly out to meet the women. My wife was online for 2 years. Her address was ordered some 50+ times and she received and replied to 100's of letters during this time. I was the ONLY man who went to meet her! She was 26, spoke English and German fluently and is very attractive. I'm amazed that so few men travel. That's why the ladies are still online.
The figure for how many times the ladies addresses have been retrieved is only for guidance. It certainly doesn't mean she's met dozens of men and is very choosy. Also a lot of men order addresses on the spur of the moment and don't even write. The figure also includes each member who retrieves the address. Members get access to 10 addresses a month but they don't write to all 10 women each month. So I'd take the figure with a pinch of salt and don't be put off by it.
Personally I wouldn't pay for addresses from any website that doesn't tell you how often an address is ordered.
How often do you check the information of the women? And why do you not show how long
a Russian woman has been on your agency?
We have some software that tracks how many letters a woman
receives through our mail forwarding service and how many times she replies. Our
women are encouraged to reply to all letters they receive even if it's a 'no
thank you'. It costs nothing for the ladies to reply and is a matter of
courtesy. If a woman does not reply to 3 or more letters in a row she is removed
as not being serious.
Women move and don't tell us. We are continually checking the
ladies are still available. If we can't contact them they are removed until such
a time that we can contact them.
A number of women decide to leave our agency because they
receive no letters. Others leave because they receive 100's of letters but no
men visit them and they become despondent and tired of writing for months on end
with no results.
Many more have married. In other words maintaining the database is a
constant effort and a high priority. As of October 2003 there are over 13088 women on hold in our database!!
We do not show how long a lady has been on our database because some women have been online now for 2 years and tell us they still want to find a man to marry. If we showed how long they have been online men would write to the ladies that have been on a shorter time. This is just not fair. As I have said earlier all our ladies are currently wishing to marry a foreign man regardless of how long they have been on our
database.
Can you tell me how much your services cost in my currency?
I've just received a 'low account notification' what does this mean?
This means that an agent has tried to send a reply from a lady you wrote to. When you sent the letter you agreed to pay for the reply but at this time your account does not have sufficient funds to pay for the lady's reply. Please read this page for further information and to add funds to your account: 'Add money here'
I've paid for a reply to be sent to me. How do I get retrieve it and how long will it be before you send it to me?
To receive a reply your account must be in credit. To check your account see next questions below. Our mail forwarding system is fully automated. When you add money to your account the agent is notified by email. They will see that your account has been credited the next time they check their email. Some agents don't work all night or at weekends like me! Our agents in Russia are at least 3 to 6 hours ahead of British time. Add another 5 hours to this if you are from the US. If you add money into you account at 16.00 GMT on Friday it will be at least 19.00 in Russia. Many agents may have finished working for the weekend and so your letter will not be sent to you until Monday at the earliest. I am based in the UK and do not have copies of these letters to forward to you. Only my agents in Russia can do this. To avoid delays with with your correspondence please make sure your account is kept at least $15 in credit.
What is the difference between registered and standard delivery for letter?
Registered letters have to be signed on delivery or collection. Our agents will phone ladies asking them for a convinient time to deliver letters or the women will go to the agents office to collect the letter. Some agents now employ drivers just to deliver registered letters. Standard letters are sent through the local postal system. We are not liable for their delivery and can not follow up on letters sent via this delivery method.
How can I check if a registered letter has been delivered?
You can submit a request via our customer service page: Customer Service

I am not from America. Are these women interested in men from other countries?
Yes they are. On my recent trip to Belarus I asked each woman I met
what country would they like to marry a man from. Every single one said it does not matter
as long as he loves me and will treat me well and look after me. Admittedly some women do
have a dream to meet a man from one country alone but the majority have no preference. We
have men from Canada, France, Spain, Italy, UK, Australia, Germany, South Africa and Asia
in correspondence with our ladies.
I am in my 50’s. What age group of Russian women do you recommend I write to?
Most Russian women look to men 10 years older than themselves because
they offer the stability that younger man can not offer them. However as the man’s age
increases so does the difference in age that is acceptable. I do not recommend you writing to women more than 15 years younger than yourself.
OK I have seen some nice ladies I want to contact. How do I get their addresses and how
much does it cost?
You can purchase ladies addresses singularly or in multiples. The more you buy the cheaper
they are. You can see a table of our prices on our
'price list page'.
On this page you will find of our membership which offers the best all round deal on the
Internet. We must point out that writing to only one or two ladies lessens the chances of
you getting replies. The more ladies you write too the more replies you will get.
Do you offer any discounts?
Yes we do. As in the question above see this page where you can bulk buy 10 addresses or 20 addresses for discounted prices 'price list' page Our membership package allows you access to 10 addresses per month that work out at $1.30 per address! Click here for more information
'1 year membership'I don't have time to travel to Russia. Can the women come and meet me here in the USA?
No they can't. The US government will not issue tourist visa's for Russian women or women from FSU (Former Soviet Union) countries if you have not already met in person. The UK, Canadian and Australian governments also have similar rules. Lets look at this from your governments view point. Your country is one of the most 'desirable' countries in the world to
emigrate to. Each year 1000's of immigrants enter your country illegally. Now they have a 23 year old woman saying she wants to travel 1000's of miles to meet someone who is more or less a complete stranger apart from some letters and phone calls. She probably doesn't speak a lot of English, has never been out of Russia before and doesn't have any money. Would you give her a visa?
