The dating market is flooded with web sites and agencies, adding a bar code system to your agency isn't going to make people join yours over another site. Plus it is restricted to certain mobiles with a reader and like ben says QR codes are not widespread so you just made your potential client base even smaller. He's just bitter, move on try another idea! The reason it didn’t get any airtime with the dragons is because its a rubbish idea.
