Christian Mingle Reviews

First, the number of available matches is low. To send or receive messages, you have to pay. A one month subscription is $49.99 and you have to choose auto renewal. Picking a search radius is useless as the matches they send are usually much further than what you chose.

I feel frustrated that the app does not work, and I am paying for it. When it did work for me, I felt that I did have more opportunities to meet men who had more in common with me than on non Christian apps, and there were more people on this than on other Christian apps.

This is the worst dating app I have ever tried in my entire life. I paid for premium, and filled out all of the profile information. I was very detailed and spent 50 dollars and 3 hours on this site. And the only thing they had to show for it was 6 profiles of men that I had no interest in. And when I removed them from my list they didn't give any more suggestions. It's bogus.

I received a notification from my bank that a charge was taken out from Christian mingle. I do not have an account with this company. I tried to reach out to customer service and they have ignored me.

Christian Mingle's user experience is terrible. I gave up trying to use the application on my mobile phone, because you cannot seem to scroll without inadvertently clicking on a profile. The number of zombie accounts on Christian Mingle are numerous, so I think they mislead people into thinking that they have more users than they actually have to justify charging $50 for a single month subscription. That amount of money is excessive given the limited features and few active members in my area. I tried typing a bunch of random numbers to update my user description once I finally gave up on the service. That's when I got my first message. It was Jen from customer service telling me that my account was suspended because of suspicious activity.

Christian Mingle is not worth it. They keep your profile up even after canceling. So the people you do see on the website you have no idea if they are still on it. Not to mention the chatter is slow. Very few members within area.

What a horrible company! I wish I hadn’t wasted my money. I tried to contact customer service by using the links in the CM app. Well the phone number says “no longer in service”. The chatbot says they’ll get someone to help you, and that’s the last comment you get. And the “message” link won’t allow your message to go through. I can’t believe I wasted my money, and can’t even reach anyone in customer service!

I've heard on and off about Christian Mingle for years and I had thought to myself to check it out but I never took the chance cause I thought, "I'm on FB dating and OKCupid. I have very bad luck with my dating life and I want to find someone. But I also won't settle for just ANYONE. I need to make a connection with that person. They want nearly $25-50 a month to message people. Yeah no... Absolutely not! Anyone who pays them that amount of money deserves to be taken advantage of. I was thinking, "There's no way that a Christian site would charge me for basic features..." Nope I was wrong. This is why I wish I could make my own.

This is by far the worst dating app I've ever used! Expensive ($50 monthly) First, all the potential matches hadn't been on in weeks even months! They lived in other states or respondents sent smiles no messages. I received 3 messages in a month all from 70 yr Olds in other states! I'm in my 50's. My cap was 63. Don't use this. Something is wrong with it. I believe it's a broken app used to scam money!

I wish I would’ve read the reviews before joining Christian Mingle. I have tried many other sites in the past, this is the Worst! The Christian is only for marketing I can assure you of that. Many imposters on here. Even free POF has a selfie authentication, and it’s free to join. Not to mention the customer service number does not work or their ask a question. They ask for your number to never answer back again. DO YOURSELF A FAVOR! SAVE YOUR MONEY AND TIME, DONT JOIN!

I question the ethics of the Christian Mingle site--which claims to operate by Christian principles--based on the following experience: A woman contacted me whose profile said she was age 48 (I'm 67). Her photos looked like she could have been 48, so I took the age at face value. After a few rounds of messages I told her that I preferred to focus on women my own age, upon which she told me she actually was 68 and had adjusted her age for search purposes. I know people do that, but once you are talking to someone they have a right to know your true age. I reported her to Christian Mingle and was told that they were leaving her (false) profile up because she had not violated any of their policies. I guess keeping a paying member is more important to Christian Mingle than removing someone who lying in their profile.

9 out of 10 people I contacted were just fishing. The one who is not, I am just beginning conversation with. We will see. There is an online view in the app. There are people in this view who haven't logged on for weeks according to their profile. When it originally came out this was a decent site. Now it is a waste of time. Too much garbage to sort through.

I have tried several dating websites, and this is one of the worst ones I have tried. The website is slow and clunky. It is difficult to navigate, when you try to reply to matches it is so slow and cannot keep up in real time, and you have to randomly go to another tab instead of clocking on the person's photo of who liked you. The worst part is the subscription and customer service. I've tried numerous times to get them to help me in cancelling the subscription and deleting. I've cancelled it, and yet, the website still won't let me delete because it thinks I have an "active renewing subscription". This website is scary honestly and a bit scammy. We should never not have an option to delete a profile from a website like this. It is clear that their technology is lacking and this is a poor attempt at "Christian dating website".

The platform that they use is horrible. Every time I go to scroll down while the phone is in my normal vertical position it opens whatever profile I’m trying to scroll past. I had to turn my phone horizontal to start the scrolling. Super expensive I think for the trouble. And I just went to look at my pictures I uploaded under the edit button. And when I started to scroll down poof the pics deleted. Definitely not a good site to navigate without frustration. Last thing is under the mailbox icon you can archive likes/correspondences when I want to delete a like I sent days ago with no reply. Try Match or Tinder instead. Better to weed out non-Christians on their site. Plus not a huge local base of Christians and to top it off I had a male show up in my preferences!

Also got scammed by Sumone from Christian Mingle. As a devout Christian I was hoping this site would allow me to link up with a solid Christian women, but after a three month subscription I cancelled. I had to involve apex chargeback to track and recover my valuables from the scammer. GIad the fraudster was caught.

Danger, not recommended. Not safe site, fake profiles. First month of use received email that contact from another person was removed due to warnings about them. Their authentication system blocked me out many times and I could not access the website. When I asked them to correct it they would not. They just told me to reset my password which worked for one time and then their authentication system block me out again repeatedly after I used it and it wouldn’t let me in still. I asked for a refund and they refused. Asked for refund due to unsafe experience and was refused by company. Others looked fake and not removed. Legit contacts were not revealing accurate career. Tons of misrepresentation not befitting Christian morals.

I am not at all happy with this site. I never give reviews but in this case I don’t want another person to waste their money. I found multiple fake profiles on this site. I took a screenshot of a woman with two profiles and two different cities. Other generic profiles I’ve found has one picture of some tiny woman and in the height says 7’1”. This really ticks me off. Oh and management or whoever I don’t need a generic email saying how you’re sorry I had this experience. Spare me. Keep the money for whatever corrupt scams you are running, you will probably need it In the future. You wanna do something for me take the name Christ out of the name of your scam. Please brothers and sisters don’t use this site.

I joined and paid and then my profile was flagged as possibly scam... So they deleted it after one or two days and then did not refund me. They were rude in their emails back. They told me to go to Apple to get my money back.

They attracted me by showing me over 50 in my area. But you couldn't contact them until signed up. Once signed up, no refunds! Those 50 men were no longer online for several months! THIS IS A SCAM OF A DATING APP!! Not recommended!

Worst website - difficult to use and very few users. I live in Florida and I guess there are no single men here - lol. The website continually doesn't work and when I search there are 4-5 men that are within 100 miles of Tampa. And many of them aren't actual active members. They don't take their information off when they are no longer members. You find out when you try to communicate that they are no longer a member. I expect better from a "Christian" organization. Or is this really just a money making market ploy.... Match and OurTime are so much better!

Most of the women are hundreds if not thousands of miles away. Haven’t been on the site for weeks or months. Don’t waste your money or your time. It’s a total scam. Save your money, go to the gym. Find your partner, the old fashion way.

I've had five women who struck my interest. All five were scammers who wanted money from me. The first two conned me completely, but I didn't give money to them. The last three gave away their plan to me with intense questioning. But it was all a huge waste of time -- especially spending weeks on communicating with the first two. This site does an absolutely horrible job at filtering out con artists. Total waste of money.

I signed up to Christian Mingle for 1 month. The vast majority of people contacting me are hundreds or thousands of miles away. Hiding behind distance is a scammer trick. But what is unacceptable are all the dead profiles. I have screenshots of profiles that have not had a login since 2021. Some have not logged in, in a year, or a year and a half. This practice of presenting profiles that are no longer active, or as I suspect, people who are not even members anymore, is clearly dishonest. Bait and Switch. These people who run this "Christian" dating site are not honest people.

I have never connected anyone on there. It's so strict on profile summary and so hard to log in and so hard to navigate. There is absolutely no meaningful usage from this company/website without paying.

Two weeks into a 6 month paid subscription (if you still join, recommend paying for the shortest period first), it became clear that trying to find a match would be close to impossible. You are not able to screen who sees you based on your preferences. You end up with messages from people from all over the country and it is a four step process to figure out who they are, that they do not meet many, if any, of your preferences and to finally block or archive them. Time draining. The matches they give you based on % match against preferences still does not take into account that the person who has matched with you has no interest in your age group or distance from you or them. It was a complete waste of time and money. Also, Christian Mingle acknowledges all of the shortcomings and has no regrets about them. Their response was summarily "too bad."

No local people to meet. Gave me matches all over the country. Turns out the man I was texting was a scammer. Thankfully I suspected it but need to be careful and check out info. Even then they can be great at deceiving.

Christian Mingle is filled with scammers/fake profiles. You cannot trust who you are talking to. The pictures and profiles are from women, but the person behind the pictures and profile is not who is represented. I would save your money. I canceled my subscription after one month because it became very discouraging to get messages from fakes trying to luring me into a conversation that was nothing more than a waste of my time. I complain about this to Christian Mingle and they told me there is nothing they can do about it. I find that hard to believe. It is your choice, but from experience I would save your money and find another site.

Just joined last week. 99 percent of people here are scammers. Very few real men and all of those are on the opposite side of the country. Don’t waste your money. You spend more time clearing fakes than talking to anyone real.

At least 8 out 10 were not who they said they were. Honestly!! No one is local. If they were supposedly in their area and you lived there, then they just moved. Lol SMH. If you are in town they had to leave for a few weeks. NO WAY TO ACTUALLY HAVE A CELL TEXT OR PHONE CALL WITH MOST OF THEM. I hace had at least 50 contacts in one week. Not even 1 phone contact SMH. Google Chat is their love I have found out. SHAMEFUL. EVEN IMPLICIT SEX OFFERS!!! This is not a Christian site and if owned by Christians it is only for profit. Embarrassing!!! One other scam. And it is easily googled, is the “I am in the military out of the country scam“. And CM can’t control this!!! If there is a hell….and this is extremely frustrating. Bombarded by fake girls. Today. Two pics on same page with a girl with different name. Oops! To represent Christians this way means they should be shut down. Imo.

I subscribed to Christian Mingle and then they said I canceled. I DID NOT. I had paid for three months. They now want me to subscribe (again) to see my messages. I contacted them many times to complain. THEY HAVE NOT RESPONDED.

I am a widow and after 2 years decided to step out and use this site because of the Christian affiliation. This was all new to me. I got on the site and checked it out and decided to pay for one month. I was on the site for one week. There were only a couple profiles I had interest in. I started a conversation with a man and listened to his story but never really felt it was the direction to go. I shared this with him, but it was not received well. I went back to the dating app and decided to respond to another person who had reached out to me. After a few days something did not seem right. The end result was both profiles were made by the same person. Different pictures, different contact information, it was unsettling. I am new to all this, so I have a lot to learn but I deactivated my account and will never go back on that site again. This was not a Christian encounter. Be careful ladies.

I joined the site and they denied my picture, then I complained to them and they accepted the picture. After they accepted the picture I purchased a 3-month subscription. After I purchased the three months subscription they denied the picture again, and I did not have any access to communicating with anyone. So after I purchased the subscription I actually had less access than I did before and my picture was removed. We went back and forth several times and I told them that the picture was already approved. I was so disgusted I told them just to cancel my subscription. They refused to refund my money and I had to go through another process to get a refund from the card company. Don't trust these scammers if they treat people like this there's no way you're going to get a legitimate chance at finding a good person with these crooks manipulating things. Just go to a different dating site and don't waste your time there. These people are mentally ill.

So bad! In the match profile they sent me today there were people who last logged in 2, 3, 6,10 and 11 months ago!! Nobody earlier than 2 months ago! 11 months is ridiculous. I just started my account a couple days ago. I called to see if my settings are off because all the people I see are old profiles. They told me to widen my distance that I was searching in. I'm set to 50 miles!! I'm in Phoenix. That's all the have to offer I guess....$54 wasted. What more can I say?

I signed up to this service and the only option was for 3 months. They advertise a large network of Christian people to meet. Within 10 minutes of signing up, I realized that there were very few people to meet in my town and wrote to the company asking for 2 of the 3 months refunded as I would not be using the site. They replied and assured me that they would stop my subscription (confirmed via email) and only charge for a month. 4 months later they took off $49 per month and an extra $149 per month that I did not authorize. I am struggling to get my money back and warn anyone that the service they promise actually does not exist (maybe in America it does but not in Australia (Perth) to be specific). I am so disappointed. As a single parent - the money they have taken is my grocery money for 3 months. Hopefully my bank can intervene on my behalf and get my money back.

Christian Mingle should be called Scammers Mingle, I don't understand how this company is allowed to still be in business. Their website is very poor function and every profiles there is a fake, please don't waste your money with this site unless you are in the fraud business.

This company does not acknowledge when you cancel your auto-renewal! The company just stole over $100 out of my checking account and disregarded my cancellation of my auto-renewal! I demanded it back, and told them to delete my account and profile! I have never seen such a site that sends out so many bots in my life! When you report a profile as a scam there is no response! The biggest waste of my money ever!! For all who have been scammed from this site I hope you tell others about your crappy experience and it shuts the site down!

Problems:

Here's how it went...This past March, after breaking up with a decent woman who is now my friend, I was browsing the Internet and decided to use a dating website again. Mind you I had bad experiences with Match and eHarmony in the past. I figured I would give C.M. a chance because I have faith and I want to have at least one kid in the future and of course a long-term relationship.

First off, the servers seem to be physically set in Germany, where the site owners are, because the response time is exceptionally slow. Very frustrating. Worse, there are more scammers and fake profiles than on any site I've been on; I think it's probably because scammers perceive Christians as easy prey. You can detect them by the language skills, the canned answers (or lack of appropriate answers) to questions, but it doesn't really matter, they're still not real. And most frustrating, they keep profiles up long after the member, real or fake, has gone.

I joined on a Monday in May of 2022, I immediately was inundated men who were WIDOWED, no family, higher education, and willing to relocate. It was obvious most inquiries were canned, prewritten, and sickeningly sweet. Very Godly responses as well. I have wasted my hard-earned money. STAY AWAY! Also, the remaining profiles were OLD, with the user not having logged in for months.
