Here’s a revealing review from a client of mine and pretty much sums up what I hear from everyone:
I signed up for a three month membership through e-Harmony. I was sent initially several matches. Surprisingly of the ones i was slightly interested in none responded to requests for communication. Of the few that i did make initial contact with it was terribly obvious during our first date that we had no chemistry and our personalities were oil and water!
Here comes the good part. I let my subscription expire…I didn’t cancel it. I still get matches in my email even though my account is not active! Which of course makes me think..hmmm….of all the supposed matches they sent me I wonder just how many did not have an active account????
I made a very nasty phone call to e-Harmony who coughed up a free three month extension. I have gotten total squat for matches. Again the same scenario…no communication, matches that are totally out of line. I am sure that when these three months expire then I will suddenly get a few matches worth looking at in the hopes that I will renew my membership.
I plan to call and ask “What percentage of your members report a successful long term relationship after being matched by your system?” and “What percentage of us report that your service is garbage and a waste of our money”??? I would also like to know if the commercial engagements and marriages are actors or actual matches through e-Harmony?
Regardless…it is sad and unfortunate that e-Harmony is commercializing on the fact of life that we all need and want someone special to love and cherish.
Save your time/money, avoid e-Harmony and stick with top dating sites like Match and Perfect Match.
Hi, I've been a matchmaker for many years and have experience with just about every dating site out there. I have thoroughly reviewed and rated the best
what a waste of time!! I signed up like everyone else and the potential people out there they closed for whatever reason! eharmony should be ashamed of themselves taking peoples money for nothing! MY ADVICE STAY AWAY FROM RIP OFF HARMONY
It is an insult to my intelligence, e-harmony sucks, it is a scam and a waste of money!
I never in 3 month received anything but fat old man
and never one I was physically attracted to!
I also never got answers from the ones I was sort of attracted to, don’t do it………………save you$$$$$$$$
I have been a paying member of eHarmony for over a year, off and on, though mostly on, while using other dating services, and found that the my box is always flooded with members who haven’t been active on the system for months, or with men never make a decision one way or the another, but never answer my communication. I get matches that are from out of state, whom I can’t see myself traveling out to date. As of late eHamony has been HARD TO GET ACCESS TO. I can’t get into my account at will. They system is always under maintenance, it was so stressed out one of my matches, who couldn’t get access to contact me, that he went as far as to call eHarmoney to complain and get them to send me an email explaining the situation and make sure that I knew that he was definitely interested. Eharony’s customer care eventually gave him my PRIVATE EMAIL address to bypass the system to contact me, because he was having such difficulties and eHarmony was the cause for his delayed responses. This actually SCARED THE SHIT OUT of me and I am hesitant in responding back to the guy.
