We changed our on line payment system to PayPal back in 2007 because we felt we needed to give our clients the most secure, user friendly & hassle free system available. Most of you are already familiar with PayPal. If you use E-Bay or Amazon you will know that PayPal are one of the most respected, secure & widely used systems available today.

One interesting benefit when using Paypal is the fact that you can get a full refund up to 60 days after the purchase with absolutely no charges incurred to the buyer or seller. Full refunds are given when events are cancelled or when a client cancels an event after giving the appropriate notice.

Speed dating in Cork, Waterford, Kilkenny, Kerry & now Co. Limerick Munster Ireland. Find love and your soulmate here. ******************************* Velo promotions have been invited to hold speeddating events at an all new 'Singles Festival' coming up in Athea, Co. Limerick in August. (More info) Speed dating in Munster with Velo Promotions is geared mainly towards graduates, professional and mature people; busy people with no time to waste in noisy pubs and clubs looking for a partner. Speed dating is definitely an easier and better option and an alternative worth trying. Speed dating with Velo is a great way to meet new people, expand your social circle and really have a great night out. Meeting new people is always exciting and great fun. At each speed dating event you will have between fifteen and twenty five mini dates in one night. It’s not called speed dating for nothing. It’s simple and it works. Let Velo organize everything. We will provide a suitable venue, with soft lighting, suitable background music and friendly staff with an emphasis on comfort, privacy, relaxation and, most of all, fun. We will endeavour to match age groups, etc. All you have to do is turn up, go with the flow, be yourself and have a really great night out. How does it work? We have 15/30 tables for two well spaced out with a couple seated at each table to begin with. After speaking with each other for 4 minutes approx the bell rings and all the gents pay their respects & move on to the next table. You eventually get to meet all of the other gents or ladies on the night with 1 or 2 breaks in between. Each person is given a number and a card to begin with. If (for instance) you would like to meet 6 of the gents or ladies again you tick off their numbers on the card and you hand the card up to the organiser at the end of the evening. The cards of the 6 people you ticked are examined & if (for instance) 3 of those had you ticked as well then you have 3 matches. In other words it's mutual, you agree to meet her and she agrees to meet with you. The following working day you are both given your matches including contact numbers. It is up to yourselves after that to make contact. See bottom of page for more information.   •     Bring your friends along for moral support. We give group discounts. •   Come alone if you are new in town or short on friends. Speed dating with Velo is a great way to socialize comfortably. •   Time is too precious. Shorten the odds and find someone with similar interests & background, etc. •   Do not forget that all-important chemistry that you will only find when you meet face to face.

Much easier and more fun than I imagined. Thanks, Helen. Well you know what? I never had such a great time. I've been laughing & smiling to myself all day thinking about last night. I really, really enjoyed it. Niall. I think it's a great idea. If I wasn't here tonight I'd be sitting at home in front of the telly wasting my life away. I'd much rather be here. ) Mary. Thanks Brendan & Marie for a very enjoyable & well organised night last Sunday (20/30's event 11th. Nov) It was one of the best nights I've ever had. Maria. Thanks Brendan. It was a great night. Very well organised & professional. Hoping for the best. Maria (30/40's Event 25/11/07) Niamh. Hi Brendan. Tanx for text but I'm happily dating a guy I met at d 20s & 30s event that you held on the 1st March'09 in the Ambassador Hotel. Thank you for making 2 people v happy. Niamh (20/30s Event 1st March '09) (One person didn't tick the other after the event but they met by accident in Reardons during the week, struck up a conversation & seem to be very happy since. Long may it last and good luck to you both) Thank you Niamh for the feedback.   For more recent feedback click below. More feedback

Remember if you are a guy and you tick the most beautiful woman in the room there is nothing to be afraid or ashamed of. She will never know you ticked her unless she ticks you as well. The same obviously applies to the girls. That handsome doctor who looks like Omar Shariff will never know you ticked him unless he ticks you as well.

We have a strict policy never to reveal any other information except your matches, no matter what. At the risk of being offended please don't ask.

Age Group Guide:

• • 20/30's Group. Age Guys 25 - 39 Girls 22 - 35
• • 30/40's Group. Age Guys 35 - 49 Girls 33 - 45
• • 40/50's Group. Age Guys 45 - 59 Girls 42 - 59

Because it is impossible to please everyone and also because it is not feasible for us to ask people to produce birth certs we would suggest you keep within the age guide above. We realise the vast majority would prefer to meet somebody in their own age group and a certain amount of people have no problem with an age difference but there is a limit. We feel that it's not fair to have people turning up for the 30/40's event pretending to be in their 40's when they are really pushing 60. At least go for the 40/50's group. Back to top of page.

Kilkenny.

Our 1st 2 events in Kilkenny recently turned out to be quite successful really considering the fact that we had a few hiccups to contend with. Our 1st event was held on the 6th February for 30s & 40s. A group of girls left us down at the last minute but the guys didn't seem to mind or complain and everybody seemed to enjoy themselves. Our next event in the Rivercourt was held on Sunday 8th March for 20s & 30s. Our numbers were low but we didn't want to disappoint anyone and it still turned out a good night despite the numbers. From start to finish they were a very professional & nice group of people. Most got 1 or 2 matches and we wouldn't be in the least bit surprised if we get a few good relationships out of the night. Another good job done, we feel.

Waterford:

We held our 1st event this year at the Tower on the 26th Feb'09 for 30s & 40s Plenty of guys on the waiting list because of a shortage of girls. However, as always, we had a very enjoyable night.

We don't have any future events planned for kilkenny or Waterford at the moment but we are looking at our options and we hope to have newsshortly for future events in the area.

Our Christmas event for 30s & 40s (21/12/08) at the Ambassador Hotel in Cork was a great success. It was completely sold out and it was probably one of our most successful events to date. We had a complimentary mulled wine reception to give the night a kick start. A number of spot prizes were handed out on the night and for a change we had a bit of a dance afterwards which gave people a further chance to mingle after the speeddating.

Every week someone's life is changing for the better because of our speeddating events and the reason is no secret. Speeddating, according to our clients, with Velo Promotions is a little different to the norm and the reason they say is because we add a touch of class. We only do our best but it is definitely nice to be told.

Speeddating with a touch of class.
