Questions about dating in Sligo

How far around Sligo can I search?

In the app you choose the distance yourself: from 10 km to 500 km, or “Any distance”.

Is online dating in Sligo free on YADate?

Yes, completely. Nothing on YADate is paid, in Sligo or anywhere else: you can browse, like, write first and send voice messages or gifts without a subscription or credits. The only limits are daily caps against spam, such as 40 new conversations a day.

Are the profiles near Sligo real?

There are no fake profiles here: YADate doesn't create them or chat on anyone's behalf. Photos go live only after a moderator approves them, every account confirms an email address, and reports are reviewed by people. If someone asks for money or rushes you onto another app, report them — a moderator will look into it.

Can I meet someone who doesn't live in Sligo?

Yes. In the filters you can search around any other city, in Ireland or abroad.
