What is free here and what is not?

OK we spent months looking for the best online dating system we could find and it works like this.

Your basic Country Lover membership is free - This allows you to have a look around and see who is among the members in your area. It also allows you to set up your members profile with a  little information so other members can view your likes dislikes interests and read a bit about you etc. as well as see what you look like. You will also receive notifications of any messages sent to you by other Country Lover members and while the basic free Country Lover membership dose not allow access to the message you will be able to look at the profile of the member who sent it.

Country Lover Members who have paid to upgraded membership - Paid membership of the online dating site alows a member to do many additional things on this date site for lovers of the great outdoors, but the main advantage of paid Country Lover membership has to be the ability to communicate directly sending messages to other members and reading those messages that have been sent to you.
When you upgrade your Country Lover membership by paying the small monthly membership fee, you can access all the additional dating and networking tools and benefits on the Country Lover dating website. For example you can send other members messages, read the messages sent to you and reply, access the chat areas etc.

You can upgrade and downgrade your Country Lover membership at any time to suit you and your requirements at any time as and when you need to.
