NY- Two women who went looking for love with Great Expectations – a Manhattan dating service – wound up with their hopes dashed and pockets picked by the Internet company, a judge ruled.

Civil Court Judge Diane Lebedeff decided that both women were victims of “a massive overcharge” – and since neither scored a single date, they were entitled to full refunds.

She ordered that “Jennifer Doe” get back the $1,000 she paid for a six-month membership and “Debra Roe” be refunded the $3,790 she paid for a 54-month deal.

Both names are pseudonyms. The women acted as their own attorneys in the case.

The judge said because Great Expectations’ contract guaranteed no specific number of referrals each month, the service could legally charge no more than $25 per member.

But the company plans an appeal on grounds that it’s not a matchmaking service governed by the $25 limit, said spokesman Bob Liff.

“Great Expectations only provides a database which clients can access at their own discretion,” he said.
