Thousands Join Chelsea Millionaire Dating Site

for £1 in Queen's Jubilee Error

/PRNewswire/ --

A dating site for millionaires has come under fire from its own members today

after a blunder has allowed thousands to join the exclusive matchmaking site

for just £1.

The site, launched last week, was inspired by the hit television show

Made

in Chelsea

, which aired its finale on Monday. The final episode saw Jamie and

Louise's romance well and truly finished, and Date in

Chelsea

hopes to sign up

some of the show's single stars, along with elite Londoners looking for love.

There will be plenty of competition for the stars' and millionaires' affections

though, as people have been able to sign up for only £1 by using the special

offer code '

onepound

'. The code, introduced by the site's parent company to

celebrate the Queen's Jubilee, has been found to be working on Date in

Chelsea, meaning first month membership is only £1 rather than £29.95.

A vast number of wealthy singletons had already flooded to the site, attracted

by their ability to meet like-minded wealthy people in a secure, private and safe

environment. Now, some of them are angry about the site being open to

people for only a pound.

Simon, 32, from Hammersmith said: "The very reason I joined this Date in

Chelsea

was to get away from those cheap, nasty-looking dating sites and find

someone very special. Now it seems every average Jane is sending me winks."

"I thought this was meant to be a dating site for millionaires? Might as well

rename it to #DateinPoundland," added Joe, 25, from Kensington.

Made in Chelsea

fans are ecstatic at the opportunity to live the dream of a

Chelsea

lifestyle, though, and hope to find themselves on the arms of

Chelsea's

rich elite - hopefully with a bit more luck and a lot less drama than the show's

stars.

A fan of the show, Lucy said: "I'm obsessed with Made in

Chelsea

and I think

this is a fantastic idea to meet and date the kind of people that would be on the

show. I would love to find my own Spencer!"

A spokesperson for Date in

Chelsea

said: "We are aware of the special offer

that has been released and fully understand the frustration of our users. The

generic code should not have been applied to our service and we are going to

do everything we can to ensure this does not happen again. As we are not able

to end the promotion until it runs its course, we will honour memberships for

those who use the 'onepound' offer up until Monday."
