Kelleher Associates

I paid a substantial amount of money for a fee for this "dating" service. It was a complete fraud. I received hardly any "matches". The few women I was introduced to did not nearly meet the qualifications I was seeking and had specified. I warn anyone not to get involved with this organization.

I watched the Kelleher's on CNBC and was immediately impressed with what I saw, but didn't call because I was dating fine on my own and didn't think they could really find me what I wanted in a partner. A year later (last May), I happened to catch them again on TV -only this time, they were matching Hoda -the host of The Today Show! She is a beautiful woman and certainly doesn't look like she needs assistance in the love department. She peeked my interest so I decided to call the Kelleher organization. I spoke with a knowlegible and friendly person on the other line and she explained to me how the process works. It was simply enough, so I set up my in-person meeting with them in Manhattan.

After joining I was set up with two phenomenal ladies-both highly successful and gorgeous! Excited, I called the personal matchmaker "Lori" that they assigned me and asked "who do you have next"?. I was taken aback when she suggested I place my membership on hold and persue "Karen" my first introduction. Karen is 5'10, slender, blond and possesses a sharp wit (that I love by the way) and she has a fun, sexy sense of humor. She really 'gets me' and honestly I was shocked she was even available. I agreed to ask her out again (I was going to anyway) to see where things might go. 4 months later I proposed to Karen at the Bel Air hotel in Los Angeles. She said "yes" and I am thrilled! I have never had a problem dating attractive women before, in-fact that was getting old fast, but Karen is different. She is not like any women I have meet and I didn't want to lose her.

The timing was right for me and thanks to Kellher things just all came together. We have referred a handful of good friends and can't say enough about this company. I have heard about their competition placing false bogs on-line in attempt to damage their stellar reputation. I for one decided to write about my success on this complain board because I want potential clients that are considering a matchmaking firm to know the 85% success rate of Kelleher & Associates.

Even if they were real (for argument sake)10,000 clients and 23 years later you are bound to hit a road bump. You can't please everyone. I am a tough customer and they worked for me. If you are in doublt, call the BBB like Jill suggests in her posting. I checked with them before I joined and got a "A" rating which is extremely impressive. The Kelleher organization will work with clients to resovle any issues. I wasn't with them for long but I learned that the group I worked with was realistic and upfront in their approach, which as a very successful business man I appreciated. I am forever grateful for what they did to this relentless bachelor.I am now a very happy and soon to be happily married man.

People who are not really our clients are slandering my company with blogs that are outright lies! Why don't they call me if they truly are a client, or sign their real name so I can call them?

I would be very happy to hear from them and resolve their concerns. I have been in business for 23 years and until only recently out of nowhere terrible lies are being written by very unhappy women who I know are not clients of Kelleher & Associates. My company has for 23 years always maintained a pristine reputation and a big percentage of my clients are referrals from other Kelleher clients. These blogs just started happening! It is shocking that people believe them!!

Kelleher & Associates has a AA rating with the Better Business Bureau and has held that for over 20 years. There is no one policing these terrible blogs that are not true.

Either my competition is writing these distasteful lies or someone is having fun at my expense, my associates expense, and my wonderful clients expense. Please don't believe blogs written by anonymous people. Call a legitimate business like the BBB to get legitimate information, or call Jill at 415-332-4111.

In my experience this company has been upfront, honest and dealt with integrity every time. I have meet beautiful women that are both educated and fun. I feel for the few people that look to blame a company for their own short comings. I grew up a long time ago. There is no one to blame but yourself if you are not in a loving relationship. I am glad I took the leap of faith and joined Kelleher & Associates. It has been top notch.

Being a victim and looking for others to join you on an un-vetted internet site is sad and pathetic. No company could be in business as long as Kelleher and have a great reputation for matching the who's who in business and celebrities alike if they were not the real deal. My suggestion is for those that don't like the way Kelleher works, go back to internet dating. This company is too classy for you.

In my experience with the service over time there has never been a pretend date or a model. That just seems totally made up! Although I have not met the perfect match yet, I have met REAL great guys every time.

I was recently contacted by someone who asked me to write something to shed a little reality into a pretty nasty scam conducted by the Kelleher and Associate team. These women are hard core sales types who will do anything to get the deal. In particular, as one example, they will hire men like me to pretend to be interested in women that they find hard to match.

About me: I am mid 50's, relatively good looking, 5'10', smart, run my own business, Catholic, and with Mid Western values. I have two kids from a previous marriage and truth am not looking to settle down anytime soon.

How it happened: I was approached and given an invitation to become part of their club and learn more. I had a casual coffee with the team, was offered a free membership and a chance to meet some smart and eligible women. I told them I was not interested in marriage again and they said that was 'fine.'

I have gone out with a number of women and frankly got sick of it. I felt really bad leading these women on and my gut told me to stop letting Kelleher set me up.

This company is a total scam and I would never suggest signing up. Although I am a good and honest man who is eligible, I wouldn't suggest dating me because I am not serious about settling- yet they made it to believe that I was (am).

I asked some of the women who I was set up with how much they paid for their memberships and almost spit my wine out in shock at our dinner dates. 10,000 on average and none of the women I met have actually had success. The funny thing is I bet you everyone that they were set up with was a guy like me- a guy who is a solid catch but not looking to get serious again after the nasty divorce that I went through many years ago. Dating is fine but marriage for me is not.
