eHarmony Reviews

Okay first of all I believe I have been scammed out of a 6 month membership from eHarmony. Like many of the reviews before you're told that you will receive X number responses in your area and you never do. Like one of the reviews before I would send out the icebreakers and would never receive responses from local man. I tried to cancel my membership and was told that it has to run its course for those 6 months yes. And then out the blue I received an additional $14.95 charge for profile highlighting which I never approved.

I joined eHarmony a few months ago expecting at least a few local people around my area as I don't drive so didn't want them to be too far away. Anyway, they told me that there were quite a few in my area and I had a very good chance of having a meeting with a few nice people like myself. However, once I had joined up (for a year's membership) I only got a few and every time I sent a smile or replied I got nothing back at all. I emailed eHarmony asking them about not many people contacting me, and they just told me that I had to extend the distance to get more response even though I had said that I just want local people in my area. After two months I still haven't had one single person get back to me and just want a refund. But I've been told that I can't as I'm in a contract for a year. What a waste of money and I will never join this again. It's put me off dating forever!

I seriously think that eHarmony creates fake profiles in lieu of actual breathing respondents. Oh, I believe the pictures are real but taken off the WEB and then a profile and account attached to them. All of the specific questions that I made up were never responded to, BUT the computer generated questions that EHARMONY gives you to use as an option responds. I believe these are generated by a computer program and when you write your own the computer doesn't know how to respond so there is NO response. SCAM.

I joined eHarmony, it seemed safe, as their commercial says, people need to pay to be on the site, so it is safer. Not in my experience. Every single person (8 of them) that I responded to in a 2 week period was removed from the site. They don't say why, just that they did. I called and asked for a refund as I am not comfortable responding to anyone on the site. They gave me a story not to divulge personal information, blah, blah, blah. Hello! It is a dating site, and again according to the commercials, a place to go where people are looking for a committed relationship, and yet I am not supposed to divulge personal information. So I am out the money, but at least I didn't give out personal information to the deviants on the site.

When I signed up I only saw 15.99 a month, when I wanted to cancel within a month I was told I can't and I have to pay in advance more. It's such a scam. I was not clearly notified that I only have 3 business to cancel in order to get refunds or nowhere says I have to pay installments in advance for the whole year. I emailed them and they were not friendly over the phone or email, just told me that no they won't make an exception. It's not working at all, no messages, just waste of money and time. Amazon refunded me 100% after 6 months for my Prime Amazon fees! Why eHarmony is so bad and all the info is hidden until only when I realized it's not working at all. I can't believe such a "reputable" company would do such thing! I want my money back!!! And cancel it!!!

I can't believe this company. I am definitely thinking of suing them. I found someone and we began talking for a while and it seemed we were developing strong feelings for each other. Don't be fooled like me. His name was Robert but he had an accent, he said he was Italian and a Building Contractor in New York. His pictures are probably of someone else. He took time to get to know me and talk to me. It makes me sick and I feel extremely stupid I wanted to go see him in New York and always made an excuse so I stopped asking. Then my company send me out to New York for work and I told him and all of a sudden he is leaving to Dubai for a month. Unfortunately he scammed me of $400 dollars because Roaming was expensive in Dubai along with canceled plane tickets I stupidly booked.

I also signed up and spent a great deal of time creating a profile. I had 1 match only completely outside of my parameters in terms of distance and age. After reading the reviews on here I decided to close my account. Once I got to that page I magically now had 9 "new" matches waiting. This company is a scam. Don't waste your time or your money!!!

No local matches and the few that responded were somewhat mysterious in their candor! Tried to cancel after 2 weeks and was CONNED into paying for the full 6 months subscription!! I consider myself a fairly attractive guy, I do better flirting at different social events. It's a numbers game! eHarmony has nose-dived in quality ever since Neal retired from the company, what's left is a bunch of CON artists, and subscription mongers!!!

This site is awful. When you get matches, they are outside of the parameters you set. When you set parameters to very important, which I feel is acceptable since I don't want to date someone old enough to be my dad, you get nothing. The funny thing is, all this didn't start until I took off the auto renew feature. Now it has been almost 2 weeks and no matches at all, no visitors to my profile. Seems kind of scandalised to me.

I realized right away that eHarmony does not have enough people joining to be able to supply reasonable matches to their customers. They were all in different state and well over 50 (my age range was 36-46). I even changed the setting to very important and still received one match from another state. I sent an email within the cancellation period requesting they cancel my account, well they never responded so I sent a follow up email, never responded.

When I joined eHarmony, I did it sort of as a game, a way to meet some people, maybe have a little fun, but nothing serious, as I had just been abandoned after an 18 year relationship. But I spent the days required to fill out all the questions they ask to find your perfect match. The daily matches they sent were hundreds of miles away, and none of them listed a marital status, which makes me suspicious. I must have sent friendly messages to at least 50 guys in the two months I used the service. I think two replied back, with the exact same wording. They both said to my questions as to if there were real people on eHarmony, and if they had met someone yet. They both answered in the exact same words. "Yes, I have, Keep trying. Good Luck!" None of the other guys I wrote simple "Good morning. How is your day?" Or "How is the weather?" Or whatever, no one else replied.

I did not get many matches, maybe two in three weeks that were within the parameters I set. I used the service initially and was able to cancel within three days and get my money back. I decided to try again, and thought maybe I should leave it there longer; this decision was a HUGE mistake. When I tried to cancel my account I was told that I could not because they were planning to collect two more payments of $80 something dollars to pay my subscription out over the next year. I contacted customer service and was told that I should have read the fine print. I understand that I agreed to those, but good business is doing the right thing. Match.com does not do this to their customers.

Don’t waste your time or money. Months on the site with NO replies from anyone YOU have an interest in. The only messages or interest you’ll get is from Senior citizens that look like they can’t move out of the chairs they took their pictures in! Consumers affairs or the BBB should look into shutting eHarmony down...there are enough complaints to have a class action lawsuit!

I signed up for a 3-month trial through eHarmony. I spent hours answering their online questions as I gave every attempt to be completely honest and transparent. I set my match searches for men between ages 57-65; and my search range within 60 miles. None of these are unreasonable. However, every match I received (62 in the first 48 hours) were either 50-55 or 68+ - both of which were outside my search requests. When I contacted them to resolve the issue, they failed to send me any match until I sent a complaint - after which I was sent one single match, who was again age 70.

Nothing but a honeypot to collect personal information. Created an account, entered truthfully all the correct information. Went back and started to edit and add more information. Checked my email and 20min prior got a notice that they closed the account — but, with the account closed switched back to the site that was far eager to collect even more information. What hackers call a “honeypot” - Eharmony is doing this “legally”, hidden under mountains of “privacy, terms of service” all without giving a direct answer. DO NOT GIVE UP YOUR PERSONAL INFO TO THIS COMPANY. GDPR & Right to be forgotten -> EHARMONY.

This service is horrible. Two of the matches they had for me were removed by them for security reasons. The other matches are too old, too young and/or too far. I am completely dissatisfied with the service and asked for a refund for some of my money and they said No. Their only concern is getting your money. They could care less if you find a match. They even automatically renew your subscription for subsequent years. Total sham. You would be better standing on the curb with a sign to find a match.

I joined in December 2017 when eHarmony was running a special rate and received two months free. I deleted my profile and pictures and closed my account the beginning of June 2018. After 6 months on the website I had two dates with one gentleman who wanted to get way too friendly before allowing me time to get to know him. The other match wanted an exclusive passionate relationship with me after corresponding with two emails. This match was subsequently removed from the site and banned per the email I received last week. The other matches were either too old, too young, too far away or did not bother to respond. I am very disappointed and feel that I could have used the membership fee buy groceries and have had a better experience.

Do not use this service! The matches are anyone they can hook to pay their very expensive monthly fees. DO NOT sign up for more than a month, you won’t be able to cancel the account until eHarmony.com has drained every penny for your subscription. There is no “compatibility match”, just accounts with one or two pictures, or ghost accounts. Not worth the money they so gallantly ripped people off.

This site is so bad. I never met anyone. The ones I did send messages to never responded back. I use it for 30 days. Didn't speak with not one person. I deleted and canceled my account and actually saved the cancellation message because I did read the reviews before of how they will still be taking your money afterward. I canceled several months ago. I met my boyfriend on POF. We even live together now. This morning I check my account to pay a bill and out the blue I see they charge my card again. Out of nowhere. I haven't been on that site in months. Most definitely thieves and a ripoff. Now I have to do a fraud report at my bank just to get my money back. It's sad.

USELESS. First I think I'm at least a decent looking guy, I'm fit, athletic, dont have a beer gut, 5'10 in height, 172 pounds, I dress professionally in all my pics. I have also tried Match.com and Zoosk. Both are better than eHarmony but I wanted to try eHarmony because they claim to match you with the right person based on their questionnaire. BS. I wish I had read these reviews before I committed to the 3 month subscription. I only have a few days left till it runs out, and I hope they don't charge me anymore. I did turn off auto-renewal.

I have no problem with eHarmony itself - I used it for about 3 months. However, when I tried to cancel it turned into a nightmare. It was such a complicated process that I delayed for 9 months (and continued paying the $29.99/mo). When I finally called to cancel I was on the phone for 1 hour and 28 minutes not counting hold time at the beginning. I have NEVER experienced anything like it and I will NEVER use eHarmony again just because of the cancellation process.

This is the worse dating site I've experienced. I had an account & I had to call in to cancel & delete it but it never gets deleted. Then several months later I checked to see if there were any activities on my account that was canceled & I removed all the pics however when I logged in, all my pictures were still there & other people's pictures too. You can never delete your account. They do that so they can say they have all these people with accounts on their site but in fact over half are inactive & can't delete their account. They are a mafia!

This dating site is such a ripoff and not worth it at all. I never go on dating sites and thought this one would be better since they are so known and charge so much, but I was very wrong. Me and a co-worker went through the whole questionnaire and at the end it wouldn't let you go month-to-month, you were required to pay for 3 months at $180.00. She got out and said forget it. I stupidly did not. Few hours later, they offered her the same membership, but for 1/3 of the price. I e-mailed them about that and they refused to at least honor the price my co-worker was offered. This is a joke and really bad business practice. Even worse, every person I'm match with is old enough to be my dad or looks older than my dad. This has been such a complete waste of my time and money. I should have just went on the free sites. My friends all do and easily find good people without being screwed over.

I joined eHarmony over a year ago and paid for a year up front. During that entire time I only heard from three people and a few scammers that were removed. The matches were unsatisfactory and none of the men who were picked for me hardly at all answered any of the questions on their end of the profile. All the men want younger women or all the profiles seem fake. I was and am very unhappy with the site. I felt I had a reasonable profile and ok pictures.

I recently joined eHarmony and had one of the worst experiences of my life. I was matched with a member of the KKK who had previously been arrested for hate crimes. I'm a disabled woman so this was extra terrifying. I tried to cancel my account and request that I not have to pay the final two installments and was told I couldn't because it was not within the first three days. One would assume there would be an exception when someone's life is put at risk. I intend to pursue this.

I joined eHarmony as it was a suggestion from a friend who met her husband on the service. I joined and paid for the full 12 months I went through all the questions posted pictures I participate on a regular basis when I get the notification of "new" matches and I have been on eHarmony 4 going on 5 months now and I have not met a single person, have not had a single date. 99% of everyone I contact ignores me and every time I reach out to eHarmony they blame me for it for not having an exciting profile and they keep telling me to give it more time. From where I sit eHarmony is a five star waste of time! Very disappointed and vexed with the entire experience.

I am Sierra and I have a subscription with eHarmony. I will tell you it is the worst thing I have ever signed up for. I got the 6 month subscription, because I felt like it was time for me to rejoin the dating life after a year and half of me and my boyfriend breaking up. You go through all these questions about yourself and what you look for in a partner. Well I thought "Well hey, with all these questions it shouldn't be long since I meet someone?" Yeah, that was wrong! I have been on this site for a month now. I will tell you it isn't all how they make it cracked up to be on TV. You have to pay a pretty hefty subscription fee, usually 3 installments. That is one thing I didn't like about it. I was hoping they would have something you can pay monthly, have benefits with the site and if you no longer want it, cancel and have your benefits taken away.

As the rest of the reviewers have stated, this site basically is a fraud! I could swear the advertisement that caught my attention and entice me into giving this expensive site a try was the promise of matching you with a specially designed scientific system or "3 months money back guarantee" which now is nowhere to be found! I've been contacting customer service since the very beginning expressing my dissatisfaction and even though once got an automatic reply stating that they will reduce to half my annual membership THAT NEVER HAPPENED.

This is hands down, the worst dating website ever. They seem to have only the singles who no one wants to date. Real duds. They charge more than any other website, and never bother to contact their clients or even ask for feedback. Horrible waste of money and depressing too! Basically, this is big fraud. DON'T MAKE THE MISTAKE OF PAYING THEM A DIME. You will find much better singles on the regular websites.

I signed up for eHarmony because supposedly they are the best online dating site. I signed up, filled out my profile and then waited, and waited and waited. I am specific about dating in my area not having a long-distance experience. Really only 3-5 fellas in my city. After a month nothing changed and their response is to broaden my area base. That becomes long-distance dating and not the ability to meet for lunch or coffee or for a walk after work. I asked for my money back, but instead they extended my membership and charged me again. I signed up for one month but they charged me for 3 and when I asked to get that changed I received no answer and nothing was done. The worst! The absolute worst online experience!
