I signed up for this because I thought participating in fun events, in a group environment, would be a good way to meet someone. It seemed like a better alternative to meeting someone at a bar or through a dating service, which can be awkward. I was wrong. First off, they dont discuss the pricing on the phone, so you have to attend an in-person meeting to get the information to decide if you want to join. In that meeting, they ask you questions about your salary and try to get you to sign up on the spot, which I did. I will take accountability and say I did not ask enough questions... like what their cancellation policy is, etc. I was excited at first and signed up for a few events right away. I was EXTREMELY disappointed. They told me I would probably never run into the same people because they have so many members and events. The same exact people were at the first 4 events I went to. Not only that, but there was basically no one my age at any of them (I was 25 at the time). It was mostly 40yr old women at each event (including 1 event that involved playing Wii at a bar). They also had to cancel 1 event because not enough people signed up for it. Despite my immediate dissatisfaction, I was going to continue to try a couple more, but then one of the event leaders started calling me. He had obtained my contact information off the list from the event and called to ask me out. I felt very uncomfortable with this and decided to not attend any more events. After making this decision, I looked into the cancellation policy, which I believe is something like 24 hours. The timeframe basically doesnt even allow you to attend 1 event to figure out if you like it or not, which seems ABSOLUTELY RIDICULOUS! I spent close to $2,000 on this, thinking it was going to be so much fun and that I was going to meet a bunch of great people. I feel like I was taken advantage of and that my money was wasted. The staff was extremely rude to me when I asked about a refund and when I asked to discuss it with a manager, they said one would call me back. I never received a call and got no where when I tried to follow up. Needless to say, I do not recommend that anyone join this group.

So I signed up with Events and Adventures over 2 years ago: I attended one event and it didnt meet my expectations in either quality of the food and the caliber of the attendees, so I asked to drop my membership. I was denied the request to drop my membership and so I canceled Events and Adventures monthly fee off of my credit card. Fast forward to 2 years later where they have employed out of state attorneys to go after a charge of $2,095.00 from me: OUTRAGEOUS!!! I will pursue small claims and report to BBB as this is bogus. I would suggest to interested parties to find other venues that are more flexible and have higher quality assurance measures.

Wrong phone number listed. Just called and spoke with a very confused Asian woman. Also, horrible service. Check out Yelp for a larger, more comprehensive complaint log about the service and their promises.
