Frequently Asked Questions
Q: How do I get started?
A: Read about the services we provide. Decide on the membership or non
membership route. Use the search page to find the
ladies you are looking for and search engine. Order addresses and write, email them. From then on, it's up to you. If you wish to meet any of the ladies you write to, we can
arrange a personal tour when you get to that stage.
Q: Are these girls for real?
A: Yes, all the girls on this site are actively trying to find a foreign partner for marriage or a long term relationship. We ask all of our ladies, on a regular basis, if they wish to be removed from our database so we only list the girls who are actively looking for a partner.
Q: I didn't fully understand the charges for your services. I am getting ready to write to some of your ladies, Do they have to pay to write back to me?
A: It costs ˆ4 for a normal letter, ˆ5 for a registered letter, and ˆ8 per page (650 words) for translation. Printing photos costs ˆ3 each. To use the service, you need to retrieve the ladies address and have transferred sufficient funds into your mail forwarding account. The ladies are not charged for replying to you. Your mail forwarding account is charged for the ladies correspondence, in the same way as you are charged for sending correspondence to the ladies. You can send mail through our service to any lady, providing you have her full address. It doesn't matter if she is a member of the A Moscow Lady agency or not.
Q: How will I learn when new ladies join your agency?
A: We regularly improve our site and add more information into it. New ladies are joining us all the time - we add profiles almost each
day.
Q: Why do the ladies on your site prefer a foreign guy?
A: The answer is the poor economic situation. It's too few decent jobs here in FSU that will give russian men a chance to give a decent support for their families. Too few jobs, too much vodka, too little wish to change anything...
Q: How many ladies should I write to, to ensure I get a response?
A: Most clients take advantage of the fact the price
falls to ˆ5 each per address, instead of the usual ˆ10 per address, when you order 10 addresses or more. Members can retrieve 10 addresses per month free of charge, so they also tend to write to a lot of ladies. In short the answer is that if you write to only one or two ladies, you are severely limiting your chances. You should start with about ten ladies you like, write to them by postal mail if your in no hurry for a reply, or via our mail forwarding service, if you would like to get a reply more quickly. Remember to include a good photo of yourself. Then sit back and see how it goes, and the number of replies you get. If you don't get many replies, revise your letter or expectations accordingly and try again.
Q: I am 55, does this matter?
A: This is where Russian ladies differ from European and American women - the age of the partner they prefer. Family is very important to Russian ladies. They typically marry men who are years older than themselves. They look for stability and someone who will be a good father and can provide for a family. Many ladies will marry guys much, much older than themselves. Whilst this may appear very attractive, having too large an age gap may mean you don't have much in common or the activities the two of you wish to do are very different.
Q: I've heard that a lot of mail from the US goes missing. Is this true?
A: Mail from the Canada, US or even Europe can take up to three weeks in either direction. Some mail is lost, some is
opened by postal workers, some is just never delivered, so don't just give up if the lady fails to reply the first time around. If you're serious about her, be persistent.
Using registered post is the only way to guarantee delivery of international mail. Because of this, the three week delay, and some of our ladies not being able to speak English, we offer an email forwarding and translation service. You send us the letter by email. We translate and address it in Russian and put it into the local postal system. Instructions for replying by email are included with the letter. The lady can reply by post or visit our office in person.
Q: What is the point of me sending a letter if I do not know if she understands English?
A: The ladies English (German, French etc.) ability is shown on her profile page (5=Excellent, 1=Poor). If she doesn't speak English, and you write to her in English she must either translate the letter using a dictionary, or ask a friend to translate it, if she knows one who can. This means it takes far longer to get a reply, and she may not even reply at all. This is why we provide a translation facility with our email forwarding service. You must say that you need the letter to be translated in the instructions part, and you also have to setup a mail forwarding account.
Q: What about having the girl I choose come to visit me in Florida instead of me going there?
A: You can only ask her, you have nothing to loose. This is very unlikely because you will have problems obtaining a visa and the lady is unlikely to accept if she has never met you.
Q: I tried to write to the email address of one of the ladies on your site, and it was returned. Do you have a better e-mail address for her?
A: I'm afraid that sending email to the former USSR can be problematic. You may have to try many times, or write or phone the lady concerned.
Q: I've transferred money into the mail forwarding account. Why does it say I can't retrieve the ladies address?
A: Opening a mail forwarding account does not entitle you to retrieve the addresses of ladies on the server free of charge. If you wish to retrieve addresses and use the email forwarding service, then membership may be a better option.
