After a long time of filling out a questionaire, I was told I was rejected. Now that I have read other people's woes about the site, I am not so heartbroken. It really made me feel worse than before I answered the questions.

I felt like my self-esteem was lowered to the point that I did not want to live any longer. Now, I feel better but I feel worse for the people that eHarmony did not reject. No one should be allowed to profit from someone else's misfortune.

I joined E-Harmony Only to find that I have gotten only 1 name and no responce from that name in 3-Weeks. I feel that this is only a scam to receive our money. There has to be more people out there than just one. I would like to cancell my my contract and return my money. I am not pleased with the results at all.

I repeatedly received email notices to renew my eharmony account; I did not respond to renew. I received a notice they tried to renew, but were unable to with credit information I had provided - I responded I did not want to renew, they have repeatedly tried to renew since. They do not respond to my email and do not provide a phone number to call to resolve.

eHarmony set me up with a pedophile. I found this information out on my own with very little details about my match & eHarmony's response is pretty much sorry for the inconvenience.  I feel violated that I now know a known sex offender and that after 20 relationship levels that the best they can do for me is set me up with a pedophile. I would love to find a legal remedy for my complaint. Sex predators and violent offenders, as well as teenagers and married folk should be considered offlimits on their website. Unfortunately only the latter two are offensive enough to be mentioned in their terms & conditions page.

I have found that this site may show signs of discrimination using their one of a kind harmony profile questionnaire. If you do not answer their questions as they deem acceptable they will send you response basically saying you are not suited for their site. What seems to be the major disqualifier is if you are not "religious" you will be eliminated. I am spiritual but not at all a bible stomping religious person.

The first time I filled out their profile I was honest about that, and I was dismissed. So, I tried again, this time keeping track of those questions centering around religion and convictions, there are many. I again answered them as a good spiritual person but did not commit to being the religious person they seem to prefer. Once again eliminated. I then had a friend fill it out answering the entire religious question the opposite way; she turned out to be a perfect match for eharmony. Isn't this a form of discrimination?

How absolutely discouraging to have to give in and use these sites and then be dismissed by one of them! What’s even more interesting is another friend of mine, with very similar religious convictions was also eliminated until he offered to buy a membership. For an organization claiming to be good, they seem bad!
