Paid Friendship Event Attendees - Timeleft & PLYSocial Experiences

Has anyone here used friendship apps/events like Timeleft? What was your experience? Hi all - I’m a journalist writing a piece for the Guardian about the rise of paid friendship groups and events where people go out with strangers (such as Timeleft, PLYSocial, Storiboard and similar services). I'd love to hear from anyone who's been to one of these events or supper clubs - did you feel the event was good value? Did you meet interesting people? Was the membership fee worth it? If you'd be open to chatting further, please feel free to DM or ask any questions below. Thank you in advance!
