    I’m extremely disappointed with my experience on this website. Unfortunately, it attracted scammers seeking financial gain, individuals lacking confidence, and people who took advantage of others. I encountered people who would pretend to be interested in getting to know me, only to expect me to pay for their food or coffee. It was frustrating and felt exploitative. To make matters worse, the website's subscription policy trapped me into a 6-month commitment, despite my desire to leave after just a month. Overall, my experience with this website was the worst dating experience I've ever had. I would not recommend it to anyone.

    A month ago, I decided to try eHarmony. Their ad said that if I was not satisfied, they would refund my money. After I had filled out their questionnaire and submitted a few photos, I was ready. I received attention, but all of the wrong kind. Out of seven replies, five were scammers. Two months later, I've concluded this is a wholesale house for romance scammers looking for new subjects to relieve of their savings. And about my refund as promised? There are none, so I lost my $303.47 for the year. Do Not Buy into their plan.

    This company is a scam. Their pricing was deceptive, I thought I had purchased one month and it was 12 months....Wouldn't refund me or change it to one month even though I contacted them an hour after they charged me. So my credit card company couldn't help me after a month of trying to dispute this. So now I am charged for the full year....AND THEY LOCKED ME OUT OF MY ACCOUNT. There's no phone number to call.

    Eharmony has been a terrible experience, most matches have been removed for violating terms and conditions. The ones that aren’t scammers or bots are not good matches. First match was a someone with criminal activity, a simple Google search revealed it. Their customer service is horrific. Asked to terminate contract early because I felt so unsafe and they declined. Do not use it, it’s horrible.

    Eharmony has a really underhanded way of making money. They force you into a yearly subscription model and say you can cancel at any time, but you actually cannot. They will cancel your renewal next year, but you still need to pay for the full year, even if you only use it for a month or so. They do NOT do pro-rata refunds the way any other subscription company does (think insurance, Netflix etc). DO NOT use this service!!!!

They have now taken another $167.00 out of my bank account without my permission. I have always stopped my subscriptions before renewal. They do not answer their phones.

    Completely dissatisfied with eHarmony service. They have provided me with very few profiles to choose from. I have received only two new profiles in the past two weeks. I live in a major city with a 30 mile search radius selected and receive very, very few members to choose from. My chosen preferences are fairly broad and not too restrictive. Was with another dating site and received many more members to choose from. I complained to eHarmony customer service about this and their response was to change my preferences (to things I don't want or don't appeal to me) to receive more matches. Just recently they suggested I expand my search to other states. They must feel it is feasible to date someone 200 miles away in another state. There are better dating sites available for seniors, stay away from eHarmony.

Instead I got billed for a two year membership with an immediate, nonreversible charge of $258 which will be charged again every six months.

    I would encourage anyone thinking of signing up with eHarmony to reconsider. Several significant concerns with their service:
    1. The quality of matches has consistently failed to meet the standards promoted by eHarmony's mission statement, core values, and marketing materials.
    2. Encountering multiple instances of suspected automated (bot) accounts attempting to obtain personal information, raises serious security concerns.

    3. Being invited to have dialog outside the platform system with a “liked” person.

    4. Inappropriate picture content which was cleared by the platform's reporting system.
    5. Contacting Customer Care doesn’t respond as posted and when responding, doesn’t address the issue/concern.

    These issues represent a material breach of the expected service quality and, more importantly, raise notable concerns about user safety and platform integrity.

I tried to cancel my subscription after the first month and they won’t cancel it. They are still going to charge me every month for the next year even though I don’t need or want their service anymore. This is disgusting to say the least and I don’t recommend this site to anyone.

    Beware, eHarmony is a total scam. You will receive messages from transgendered people who don't reveal that they are not cisgender, fake profiles, scammers and foreigners who are looking for a means to immigrate. I quit using the site after 3 months of a 12-month subscription for safety concerns. I removed my profile but didn't realize that I actually had to cancel my subscription so that it did not automatically renew. 9 months later, I was charged for double the amount that I had paid for the first subscription. They did not send a renewal notice but just charged my credit card. It is impossible to get that charge reversed. They don't send the renewal notice because if they did, they wouldn't get any renewed subscriptions so this has become their business model in order to generate revenue.

    If I could give less than 1 star, I would. This site is the worst. Many, many scammers, and poor quality of potential matches. The site also allows profiles to be posted without a photo--why? This is a total waste of time, as nobody serious is going to post a profile with no photo! There is no way to filter based on education, which may sound harsh, but I don't have any interest in dating someone without higher education. If nothing else, it indicates a certain level of ambition. The price is totally NOT worth it. Even if it were free, I consider it a waste of time.

    E-Harmony is not transparent about trials or refunds. They charge a considerable amount of money and have no recourse for refunds even when less than 24 hours have passed and a request for cancellation and refund has been made. I subscribed to see what it would be like but there was no outright indication of refund policies this was hidden in the fine print. I subscribed on a Saturday night and asked to cancel on a Sunday morning (about 14 hours later). I emailed and followed the guidelines for refund. I followed up my email Sunday morning with another email.

    I followed up again on Monday by sending two more emails. I emailed again on Tuesday and on Wednesday. Come Wednesday I reported it as fraud to my credit card company. Thursday I still hadn't heard from E-Harmony, and Friday I called my credit card company to report it as fraud again. Saturday E-Harmony finally got back to me (a week later and after it was reported as fraud) to tell me my original request had been denied, and this second request was also denied! I never received an email of an original denial. I was also told the 3-day refund period was only for certain states in the US. So not only do they lack on customer service and the DO NOT have a REFUND POLICY or trial in place, but they also discriminate the refund policy based on where a person lives.

    IF you are from Canada, note that there is NO REFUND POLICY or trial period - not even a 24 hour one. If you subscribe you pay with no recourse. On top of that, even when you are subscribed you can't reply to messages or talk to someone until you indicate you like something about them. Pictures are blurred unless you subscribe. Overall, in my limited time, I find this company to be greedy and only care about money and not someone's experience.

    I don't know why I didn't look for reviews before I joined. I look at reviews on everything! Too late now but I believe they scam people into paying by showing you someone who is interested and who left a message. Of course, you can't see the message unless you pay money. Once I paid the money, I saw the person said hi only, so I responded back and the very next day I got an email from eHarmony telling me: We would like to reiterate that this account was closed by the eHarmony Trust & Safety team to protect our members and not due to a voluntary decision by the account in question. I think they put a fake profile there and once I took the bait and paid, they took the profile away. After reading all the other reviews on here I am pretty sure I am right. I immediately went to the site and took off the auto payment for renewing next year.

Very other company has at least 24 cooling off policy. Not these guys. The worst part is they also set you up for auto renewal whether you want it or not. They have to be violating some FTC regulations. Plus if you do contact customer support all you get are canned emails. No real responses to your legit problems. Oh and if you make too many contacts they cut you off for the month. So I purchased premium membership but now I just have to sit out for 22 days because I’ve reached my limit of contacts.

The service they provide is possibly additional customer service help, but in my case where I tried it for one day and did not like the algorithm selection of potential matches I tried to cancel the membership in under 24 hours and they refused to credit me back anything… A responsible business would’ve at least prorated the account and perhaps charged for the first month of membership.

That was not true unless you’re living in Canada and want to have a long distant relationship with someone say in Germany…but are they real. No. The site offered very little to choose from and not even close to a match to you. Not at all. The few coffee dates I went on were waste of time and not anything I requested. My advice save your money and join something like POF or Match where you have a better chance of meeting someone and don’t have to pay a phenomenal amount to join avoid getting scammed like I did.

    I then changed income to any and got a couple of matches, most of the additional being students and unemployed. eHarmony suggested I expand my search to other states - I'm a minimum of 6 hours from any other state in any other direction, although I do live in a major city.

At least I thought I did. Then eHarmony came up at renewing on paypal. I called paypal to try to convince them to stop the payment. They said that they could not. I could not figure out how to contact eharmony because there was no phone number. Paypal finally gave me a phone number which I thought I confirmed online but… I ended up being defrauded more than the expensive subscription price.

    I then tried to message eharmony on the app with no one replying. Paypal then gave me an email address. I emailed but the only thing that I was told was that I had to enjoy the subscription because I had renewed even though I have not used it in a year and had no plans to use it in the future. I have not used it since the renewal either. I am very disappointed. I was defrauded on the site. I was defrauded after leaving the site and eharmony would not help me, little alone talk to me at all. They only sent me a generic email, patting me on the head and telling me to grin and bear it.

So you hand over your money and they put you in a jail cell where you can’t get out, and no one can come in to save you. Your only chance is finding that needle in the haystack that also paid the premium price, matches with you, lives in your range, and also has the gumption to talk to you after they’ve been burned for months and months by others who can’t speak.

    My experience was not good with EHarmony. I discovered quite a few Fake profiles, like over at least 10 profiles before I decided to finally throw in the towel with them. Some of the profiles were obviously written by the same writer because there was a pattern that I saw, there was always a space before a period and a space before a comma which is not how anything is written in our English language here. It was truly a waste of time and an exorbitant amount of money.

    Many of the profiles that were presented to me did not have a picture nor much of a write up. The site had some functionality issues, like when I went to report a profile the button wouldn’t work, I reported this several times and they never did fix it. When I was reviewing profiles and opened one, the app would take me all the way back to the beginning and I would have to start all over again, I also reported this several times and they never did fix that either.

    If they were a legitimate site with a legitimate product they wouldn’t need to continue to charge you as a dissatisfied customer. They totally misrepresented who they are and what their product is. There is no such thing as a phone number with them and you can’t talk to anyone. I was on this site about 10 years ago and I had a different experience. I don’t think the site is what it used to be nor what they sell it to be. I canceled a 12 month membership after only six months because I never met anyone and it was a total waste of time.

    I have had the account less than two weeks. They tell me I cannot cancel. I did the thing in which I pay like four payments. If I could meet a person and talk with them it would be amazing. But I never can. I thought about it. It's almost as if none of the profiles are real. Then, if one account says account closed, why can they close their account and not me. I wish I could meet a person. I had a hard life the first 18 years I existed. All ending in a person doing something that caused me to die a number of times. I forgive and love all. I just want to see what it is like to fall in love.

    A few years ago eHarmony seemed like a legitimate site, but since I rejoined in July, most of the profiles I get in my feed are fake. You can tell they are fake right away and I started reporting them to eHarmony through their online form. They end up blocking the profile and then send me a standard form email with a link to an article on how to stay safe.

    This has been going on for months and I have asked to speak to someone at eHarmony and no one calls me back. Is there even a phone number where a person can call? I think this platform is bordering on a scam. I think people need to recognize this. You can tell by the one star ratings here from thousands of people that this is scam. Any journalists writing reviews on online dating sites should investigate this.

    I decided to take the one month trial. I was not able to see the pictures clearly. Only part of the profile. Then I received a promo of 50% off the first month making it $19.95 for the first month, then $39.90/month. This was for the Premium Plus 12 month. I enter all of my information but at the end it gave me membership terms of $114.71 today and 3 subsequent monthly payments of $114.71 each for a total of $458.85. If I changed the payment terms to monthly then there was an additional charge of 11 plus interest rate on top. Also if you do not cancel within 3 days of the start date and find a match within 1-4 months let's say they will not refund the other months or if you are on a monthly payment they will continue to charge you.

    The renewal is automatic unless you cancel before and at an increase rate. I was hesitant with the profile they were sending. They just did not sound real and maybe they were but the fact that I was not able to see them clearly popped up a red flag. After my chat on line with their customer service person I decided this site was not for me and deleted my profile. I had looked for reviews before and had not found much until now that I found this review site. Thanks to all this reviews. I'm glad I went with my gut felling. Be careful and I wish you the best in finding what you are looking for, do not be discouraged. Oh and also another site that I think has a lot of scammers is DateMyAge.

I NEVER met anyone in person or even on the phone through the app. Mostly they just ghosted.

    Most importantly! It is EXTREMELY expensive. They force you to buy their premium membership if you want to have really any features. On top of that, they auto renew your membership. Don't expect a renewal notification because if not required by your legislation they will not send it. To cancel, you have to email, it is not enough to cancel through your phone or the app. I thought I had done everything I could to cancel in time but I did not see I needed to email them.
