Match.com Reviews

Because Match is a "paid site", there seems to be more quality people on there who are more interested in a relationship than just hooking up and the odds of encountering a fake or bot profile are almost nil. Also, the options for filtering matches is fairly extensive, too.

UX is not pleasant. Lots of inconsistencies with the UX on the website. Design for both could be updated. Algorithm for selecting matches needs improving, too. More profile questions should be required to get a better understanding of potential matches.

It's okay, but it would be better if photos had to be captioned with the year taken. Since my preference is Asian, it's pretty obvious the photos taken of a young lady in China bear little to no resemblance to the 50 year old now in the United States.

Can’t limit to local only. Same faces come up over and over. Too many men don’t write a profile or they choose a canned answer provided by the site. Not pleased. Guess there just aren’t enough men in this area.

Site was easy to negotiate. Some of the questions were a little strange. I met two gentlemen; one was still hung up on his ex. The other was critical of my grandson who likes to play video games. Both experiences were???

Match.com is awful. I was on this site for over 5 years and met 1 female. Their billing dept is bad. You have to make sure your membership doesn't renew if you don't want it to otherwise, if it does you're not getting any money back. You have to pay extra if you want top billing or features on match or to see if your messages were read by someone. At 1 time there were a lot of fake profile on match. It's a big game they let you be on match for free (Set up your picture and profile) but can't read or send messages unless you pay their charges per month.

Too many deceivers, liars and fake profiles on this site. The when I wanted to cancel after my time was up they kept auto charging my card. They continued to bill my card and refused to stop and refund my money even though I wasn't using their app until I contacted the BBB and filed a complaint.

The guy I have met, we have never been on a date. We only chat via email or text. I don’t like date sites at all because they’re too mysterious and you never know who you’re talking to like in my case. This guy could be a fake for all I know. Date sites should be completely banned.

I met my fiancé on Match.com. He was the first person I spoke to. I went on other dates and they were all pretty good but thanks to match.com I met the one! I would recommend match.com to everyone! I have a couple of friends who have met their soulmates on Match too! It really works!

I got off the site because they charge you for everything. Many of the people on this site are looking for a hookup and I found it to be unsafe. When I first started and for about 6 months after, most of it was free but now it's expensive... for a blind dating site.

I've tried other online dating sites, and I have found Match to be the easiest to use, as well as providing a constant stream of potential suitors that I may otherwise not have noticed. I am comfortable using this site because of the Privacy they have provided.

I liked the filters on Match compared to POF and Eharmony. I also felt that Match let you put in better personal information to make better matches than other sites. My only complaint was that cancelling the membership was frustrating and should have been an easy process.

I had a great experience using Match.com. I wanted a dating site that gave me more info on someone than just a short description they wrote on themselves and a bunch of pictures. I liked that Match allowed people to use more details about their current situations and their past. I had enough dating in the past of randomly meeting people. I knew what I wanted and I was able to first only match with people who met my criteria for history, religion, job, kids, etc. This I feel made it a lot easier to just have to find a personality match. I ended up going on one date from Match.com and that date happened to turn into my husband. :) Who would have thought?

I know, 'fool me once shame on you, fool me twice shame on me'. And that is my story here. For some odd reason, I fell for their marketing schtick again, and once again, wasted money. There are many better offerings out there including Zoosk.

Everyone complains that you send messages to people and they NEVER reply. I also got many people who immediately wanted to get off the site and go to other email addresses. When they used a phone number - you looked up the number on "reverse lookup" and it was a fictitious number that was not attached to an actual phone. Too scary for me!

It has been years since I used Match.Com but I did meet my wife on that site and we have been married for 12 years so I guess it did what it was supposed to do lol. I do not know how much the site has changed since 2005 but I imagine it's pretty close to the same idea.

All the people I met on Match.com did not use their real name. So I could verify who they claimed to be. The telephone numbers they used were temp phones, so you cannot verify who they are. One match was a man who was pretending to be a woman. His telephone number was the only one could verify and it turned to be man pretending to be a woman. It seems like everyone in Match.com was a scam.

Not bad actually. Kind of pricey for the pay per month model, but it worked for me. The key with all these dating sites is to register as non-paying member first, but with a full profile with several photos. Test the waters for a couple of weeks and then pay for just a month (if required), NOT a year.

The ease of use in setting up a profile and searching for compatible companions were a huge plus. I also felt there were security measures in place to protect my identity. As a side note, I met my partner on Match and we are happily married- so thank you!

I met several people on Match before I met my s.o. It was fun. I went on a lot of dates. There's a lot to weed through. You just have to have an open mind. I have been with my s.o. for almost 6 years now.

It seems the majority of guys have not paid- therefore cannot communicate or see your wink. I found that the Matches they chose disregarded my important criteria. Even though I set them as Important. Political persuasion is important to most of us these days- I found that men rarely answered that question. I would not join again.

I asked to be taken off automatic pay and continued to be billed from Match.com. Finally, I was able to speak with someone from the customer service department at Match.com. The person from Match.com guaranteed me that I would get all of my money back, but first I needed to install Apple Pay on my phone. He also asked me to install ZoHo so he could help me quickly assist me (Zoho allowed him to access all the information on my phone... I was unaware of that during the call).

Well, I did meet my wife on Match and it was so successful that we got engaged 2 years later and were married within that year. It was a blessing as while we were an older couple there was no phony attributes that were published by either of us and the characteristics of the match drew us to meet.

Match seems like the most “legit” site with people who are serious about meeting another person. So in that sense it seems like a safer method to meet people. Yet I have found this site to be the least interesting and least fruitful in that search. I think of it as the site for mature, serious adults.

I met my wife online and have been happily married over 10 years. The only thing that the other half has the ability to hide is their age. My wife put her age in there as 3 years older than I was but she was actually 9 years older. She told me a few months later but I told her it didn't matter. I married a cougar ha ha!!

I've been a Tinder member on and off for the past 4 years in good standing and never an issue. Always ethical! One day, all of a sudden my account was banned from Match, POF, okcupid and Tinder and all affiliated companies, Match OkCupid, and POF. When I contacted the service team for each company (which is nearly impossible to find the contact info) they responded with a link to their terms of service and policy which they said I violated. They said they can't tell me why and I'm permanently banned. When I asked for specifically which policy I had violated they couldn’t even give me any details. Then they no longer even responded to my reply to appeal. This is wrong on so many levels. I was a faithful paying customer and completely disgusted that they can do this to people who did nothing wrong whatsoever.

With joining Match.com I paid for one year to learn how disappointing. Soon after joining a nice looking man started talking and suddenly said he was to leave that day for China. Soon after another very nice looking man started talking and we exchanged numbers, big mistake. He too had a very strong accent, said what I wanted to hear then he suddenly had to go to China. I paid to have both of them investigated to find out they are in fact scammers. I informed match.com and they more or less said sorry about your luck and we will not refund you any of your money. So not only was I scammed by two men but match.com as well. On my last note the men on this site mostly were less than attractive, if you want to see a man with a cigarette, ball cap, and a dirty kitchen in the background then this is a site for you.

I signed up for this service in June as a show of solidarity with someone that needed to get out of their comfort zone. Since that time I have received countless emails from Match informing me someone liked my profile. I received the latest one today, yet every time I log on there are no likes. I noticed this tends to happen when I haven't logged on in a few days. Not that I expected much from a company whose business model depends on their customers failing to find someone, but this is very unprofessional and inconsiderate.

Match.com is a total scam fraudulent site. I was swamped with people wanting to meet and once money paid and I could see the matches I discovered that the members were all but fake and whilst they said they were located in my area on profile they were in Asia etc. I contacted within hours to get a refund and have had nothing but a runaround, finally I got an answer back saying they could not refund as I had used the email in site. Well this was the only way they would accept my complaint. Stay away. They are dirty rotten company with no morals or ethics that obviously have slave labor in Asia deceiving customers! BIG FAT WARNING!!!!

Wow! Most of the men I chatted with were married and looking for a side piece. Really sucked! Finally I met someone and dated for a month found out all he wanted was sex. So many games... Would not have expected this from Match.com.

Lots of hype and very little substance, many of the profiles are fault and no longer active. Worse than that Match.com actively interferes in your choices by suggesting what age people should seek, and get you locked in certain age against your choice. I would highly recommend people search other online dating entities before joining in.

Match.com is probably one of the better dating sites but that doesn't mean it's great. I have found it to be a very frustrating experience. What's frustrating is that, like other sites, they present matches who are no longer paying members so there's an illusion that a member has many more matches than is actually the case. Members will go to send an email which will never be answered because the person is no longer a paying member and can't see your email.

Match was my last chance at online dating, and after flicking in and out on it, I finally decided to put it to rest.

I looked at reviews of Match.com before I signed up and didn't find anything specific that was against it. Now that I've tried the service for 3 months, I would urge anyone thinking about signing up to be aware of how they actually "match" you, and how little you are able to filter potential matches you receive. This has not been a good experience for me. I liked eHarmony better because it matched people through a personality test and also in the way you set up your filters. For eHarmony, you can say important something like income bracket, education, or politics (etc) was to you, so if I said I was Christian and that was Very Important I didn't get matched with atheists. Unfortunately, Match is MUCH more limiting in how you can filter, and they bombard you with people who really have nothing in common with you.

Some of the women on this Match.com site have been on for 10 to 18 years. They are not looking to find a man, they just want to look at photos of men. I have met homeless women on this site, women with substance abuse problems, women looking for a $ bailout, woman who lie about their age, say they're 60 years old when they are really 88 years old. What a joke and ripoff Match.com is. If you want to waste your money then join Match.com.

Hello, I joined Match and had a decent experience. I did get a lot of dates but found that during conversations with people I either did not want to get to know or want to date, there are men that actually think they can be picky. Some men have very unreasonable expectations for themselves and think just because they have a ** they can call the shots. Sorry guys, but you don't always deserve the hottest women. What about meeting the kindest woman. Many hot young women just want men with money to use them for their personal gain. It's pathetic how many men are willing to be used. My experience.... people with unrealistic expectations.

I used Match.com eight years ago while living in Portland. I went on various dates and eventually matched with a guy that did not go well. On our first (and only) date, he threw me across the room by my leg. I canceled my account and decided to leave it behind me. I do not blame Match.com for this man's actions, but I received an email today saying that my account was hacked by another device. I was confused because I canceled the account eight years ago, but went through the process to cancel it again anyway. I decided to also inform them of the hack through their customer care link. When describing the hack I also said that I canceled the account after a man I matched with on their site physically abused me on our first date. As a reply, I received an auto-response that congratulated me on finding a relationship. This obviously makes me furious.

So I joined Match.com out of curiosity because I had heard so much about how great it was. I paid the $120 six month price to get messaging enabled and I found several girls with an 88% or higher match. I get compliments from many people all the time telling me how handsome I am. I had over 8 pictures I uploaded which were all non selfies where I looked very presentable. Over the course of a week I had messaged all of the 9 girls I had found with a simple "HI." "Hello". Nothing rude or aggressive. Of course they were good looking because it does count. Who picks thistles instead of roses because looks don't count?

Used a clothing model Pic and after taking back and forth I got suspicious and did a Pic search on Google. After finding out it was fake and reporting they wouldn't remove. I contacted repeatedly to report to get them to remove to no avail.

This is the worst experience I have ever had a with a dating site. I 100 percent regret paying a dime for this. Horrible quality of men on here and their "matches" match you with people that do not match, not to mention creepy old men in the fifties and sixties try to email me. Uhm, I'm 30. Disgusting. WASTE OF $$$$$. WASTE OF TIME. DON'T SPEND A DIME!!!!

So far when I get any attention from good looking ladies they turn out to be scammers. The first scamming experience took me for a ride for about 2 weeks before I caught on. The more we communicated the more things didn't add up. I asked for pictures and eventually had quite a few. I ran the images through Google's image search and one of her pictures turned up on another site that was not her. I sent the site link to her and never heard back again. Now, after only a few messages I can pretty much tell they are a scammer. Usually their pictures are pretty and a lot younger than you but it is their message you have to pay attention to. I'm out of here. If you are feeling bad about yourself in any way, Match will make you feel worse. After all, scammers look for people who look vulnerable and it's disheartening to think your image attracts these kind of people.

I purchased my subscription. 12 hours later I cannot access the site. I call customer support and they say I have to send them 100 dollars so their fraud team can get to work on fixing the issue. Long story short. DO NOT DO IT!!!

7-31-2019 Thinking about joining Match? Let me share with you my latest Daily matches from Match. I live in Georgia near Atlanta. Yesterday, when Match sent me my daily matches, one person was from VA. 275 miles from where I live. (I checked it on MapQuest). Today had a big whopping 6 matches! All 6 lived in other states and NONE were from Georgia! I've had to email Match and explain that I don't think it reasonable to be getting all out of state matches. The person I spoke with confirmed that my preferences were "matches living within 25 miles", and promised to correct this problem. Well that was about 6 months ago and still hasn't been solved. Once they have your money, They don't care about your problems! I've been a member for two years and haven't been satisfied at all. Save your money. Don't waste it on Match.

I joined with an open mind and right off the bat started talking to some men. However they were not real. They used fake profile pics, stated they were in CA and they were in Nigeria. I was able to piece this together by doing a reverse image search and found the real person in the picture. Too many red flags and Match.com does literally nothing to safeguard you from these scammers. I reported the scammer to Match.com and received no response from Match.com, nor was the profile removed. Since I paid for the service I went on and found 5 additional profiles that were fake. Before I canceled I was again contacted by another scammer. If I can spend 15 minutes researching this why can't Match.com for the safety of their members. I was sad and disappointed, perhaps I was a target because I am a widow. But it isn't worth it, other sites do a better job vetting and verifying it members.

So here is my experience. Most the accounts are old inactive ones that Match doesn't age out of their pool to make it look better. Lots of obvious scams that somehow make it through the profile screening but if you want to post anything like "I am taking a break and won't be responding" to your profile they block then change with a message you cannot reply to stating your update was rejected because it references violence or illegal activity. ZERO customer support and ever escalating costs. Also, they had a Match event in my city of 1.25 million, I went and was the only one there. Literally just me. Given my experience I can see why. All the claimed members in town when I search are likely people that joined earlier, realized it is a scam and quit but Match keeps using their profile to trick others into the same.

I was on Match in 2018 with limited results. I joined again in June 2019. To be fair, I've had zero problems with the software or hackers from Mongolia. I've figured out how to determine if users are paid members by the green or yellow dots. Sadly around 80% of the listings seem to be expired. The other 20% are populated by either fake profiles or really are tall, snooty rich white women who seem to spend a lot of time on expensive vacations in Europe or Fiji. Roseville CA is a pretty conservative area so I didn't have high expectations but in 3 weeks I haven't met anyone face-to-face. You can get likes, correspond once or twice then it all stops. I say don't waste your money here; there must be a better way!

I have had a really bad experience with Match.com customer service. A few times they've deleted my profile for no reason, after numerous emails exchange it was restored. But it had been deleted a few more times. Furthermore, a few times it was deleted and no explanations provided. The last time when I've created a match profile I've tried to upload a few photos, fully dressed, very decent. However the moderation team kept rejecting it. When I sent a complaint to the customer service they said that I must give them a call to resolve the problem, which I couldn't do. Because my working hours are the same as theirs. When I insisted on to continue the written communication they've simply cut off my access to my profile. Full stop.

Well, Match was a good website overall for me. Due to long work hours and kids, the only opportunity I had was to come online to look for a man. I matched a good looking guy, and we connected almost immediately. The sad part is I was defrauded by this guy and he wasn't who he said he was at all, I have been so embarrassed to talk about this to anyone. I didn't get any help till I did... Anyway I was able to recover my funds using Global Elite Recovery and their skilled investigators, you can google them if you have been a victim of love fraud.

I have to say I am very sad that this is one of the most popular online dating sites, they are liars and should be shut down for deceptive practices. So I stop using Match for a while because I got hardly any dates off of it, just messages from people having "conversations", and I have suspected that some of the girl's profiles were fakes. But then after that it was just bad luck too, there are people who meet a girlfriend off Match.

Hello, I joined site first week of July. I relocated to Denver from PHX. I joined for 6 months. 2 weeks out of month I could not get into site. Says I am blocked to contact support. I did . They fixed. 2 days ago it said this. I emailed them. They wrote back cannot fix. Forwarding to someone else. Fix it soon. Well it is not fixed. I offered to pay for month of July. I want a refund for other 5 months. This was a great site 10 years ago. They got too big and too greedy. Zoosk is a much better site. I want my refund. I also receive daily matches from PHX. I have also called and emailed about this.

OK, first let me say that I did meet a couple of very attractive women through Match, but the responses are few and far between. My real complaint is that they actually lie. When I decided I had a enough I removed all of my photos and changed my profile name to "Elvis" with a description of "... has left the building". The only category I filled out was "Never again will I" with a response of "Waste time and money on Match". This was my entire Match profile after the update. My premium membership included a one time personal review of my profile. I had never used this so I decided to redeem it, mostly as a joke. I received an email from "Emily" stating "I took an in-depth look at your profile". Here are some of the comments from the review based on the profile described above:

Poor choice of matches likely because more people are using other platforms. Customer Service is bullying. Policies are deceptive... you cannot subscribe without it being a RECURRING subscription. To cancel the recurring part the number of screens and deceptive warnings are incredulous. They basically trick you into a nonstop subscription. Even if you delete your profile you still have “undone” your subscription.

Match has progressively gone downhill in the last 10 years. I recently joined several times and didn’t even go on one date. Other dating sites at least I can get a date with a freak. Match has a bunch of average men who believe they deserve to date Supermodels. Also the site sends fake emails and has fake profiles trying to entice you. I highly recommend using a different site. The Arrow one is okay.

Match.com and its affiliates are in business to make money, period. Using your loneliness, desire to find a mate, and hopes, they suck you in. I've used Match for about 15 years on & off and they have gone downhill. I did not have high expectations. Initially had IT issues with the site which was quickly fixed. Cost is too high and you have to sign up for 3 months minimum. No problems cancelling, but I cancelled early and know my billing cycle. I set my search parameters which certainly narrowed the field down - 51 matches in a 40 miles radius using the Search feature. Reverse Match produces 1769 matches, Mutual Match shows 1309. These searches include anyone and everyone, both active and long gone as I recognize a few from years ago. Even found two exact profile pics of the same gal, different names & different ages. Hmmm.

Match.com are complete rip offs, there is no customer service, there are no matches that you can communicate with. Even with a paid subscription nobody can reply to you. PLEASE DO NOT PAY ANY MONEY TO THESE THIEVES. Consumer Affairs need to go after them for flacky business practices.

I used Match.com as an app quite a long time ago when I was desperate to find someone who clicked with me and was running from the fact I needed to work on myself and know myself better in order to recognize what was right in front of me. Now I know my true soulmate and I don't need any of these dating sites. I had more than one app I was using, and all the others were easy to end completely and get rid of. Match.com absolutely sucked to use.... You have to upgrade to be able to 'get to know' anybody and no one on there is who they say they are. I never used the subscription service so never got charged for anything that I know of, and I used an email account that was not connected and now never will be connected to anything else. I went to delete the account on my own which is impossible... Even their customer service website tells you this.

I have been a customer since 2004 and they blocked my account without any explanation except terms and services which means nothing and is not an adequate explanation. Additionally they also lied to me by saying (corporate office) I could create a new account under a new email and when I did they immediately blocked and deactivated me again without any explanation. As a result I have barred from their service without any due process.

Paid £89.00. They didn't take the money till after 8 weeks approx, leading me to believe I wasn't being charged. I deleted my account after ONLY 5 days. Abusive men online made me feel this was not for me. So 5 days of a horrid nature sifting through a sea of unhappy men. All okay until suddenly they take the full money. I tried to get a refund, which they make very difficult to do. I ask for a refund, due to being unhappy on there. They say 'I know you won't be happy with this' but you're not entitled to a refund!! My advise, go somewhere else as all they want to do is rip you off. They are not interested in making you happy with a date. They just want your money to line their filthy lying back pockets.

As a widower of a year I am new to the online dating world. Only to find out that almost all of the profiles are either scammers/cons or most do not pay for the service so they can not talk with you. So with this I received very limited possibilities and if they did respond you never heard from them again OR THEY were really FAR away...so are they real or fake? While I did cancel my subscription I will not renew nor will I renew with any online dating service site! Match does a terrible job confirming that a person is who they say they are. Women and men are being taken for money daily. These cons are taking advantage of vulnerable people and Match is letting it happen.

Match.com is useless if you are looking for a companion. You would have better luck on a barstool at the worst joint in town. Maybe it is not all their fault, perhaps I just expected too much. I thought surely there would be SOMEONE in my age bracket that was decent, and looking for a decent woman. The only replies I got were from people in far off cities, most of whom claimed to have "advanced degree" or "college graduate", and yet they could not put together a simple sentence. It was apparent they were unable to master the English language....and one wanted to get my email and phone in the first 5 minutes! Nope....not happening.

This website should be taken to task as the way they go about their business is absolutely shocking and disgusting. "As soon as you join Match, we get to work. The first thing we’ll show you is a list of singles we think you’ll like. If you don’t untick these singles’ profiles we’ll add them to your favourites. You will also add singles to your Favourites by swiping right or clicking the star icon when you’re using Shuffle." I WAS NOT informed of this when I joined.

I haven't used or been on Match.com in a very long time. A few days ago I decided to give it another go just to find out Match.com blocked my email address. There was no explanation but only to email their support team. I did that and they said it would be 48 hrs before I got any answer. That time passed and nothing. I called and customer service was powerless. They said that it was a higher department...which they were unable to connect me to. She said she would make a note of my issue and send it to that department. Here I am 5 days later and I finally got a response with a guy basically saying they made several attempts at my questions and that that email would be their last email to me. WTF?! What a joke Match.com is! If they don't even have good customer service, I wouldn't even bother giving them your money!

I signed up for Match due to the assurance of the Match Guarantee that if I was unsatisfied I would get my money back. Over my usage, I found that in order to contact anyone or see their messages, you would need to upgrade - due to the limited usage, I tried cancelling through the Match Guarantee multiple times but was unable due to technical difficulties. Then I noticed they signed me up without my knowledge for the auto-renew. When I called to explain how I tried cancelling numerous times but was unable due to technical difficulties, I was essentially told "too bad". Overall, you cannot use the app without constantly upgrading and they use underhanded tactics to charge you wherever they can and have extremely poor customer service.

So I just paid for a 6 month subscription recently, only to find out that Match.com is pretty terrible. This will be the last time I subscribe and have done canceled my renewal. Here's why.

I registered based on a subscription offer of up to 74% off and at the time received an offer of 6 mos. at $14.99pm or 3 mos. at $17.99pm. Due to a technical issue on Match's website, the subscription didn't go through. I kept a pdf copy of the offer and immediately contacted customer service. By the time they got back to me they claimed the offer was no longer available and the best they could offer was 6 mos. @ $89.96pm and 3 mos at $53.98 (supposedly 25% off). Clearly, I would not have registered at these prices, but it made no difference to Match. It took several requests to get them to delete the account. They keep information on deleted accounts according to their privacy policy even if the information was collected on false pretenses.

Almost all profiles that I planned to message turned out to have fake photos when I did a reverse lookup of them on Google Images. They were all from good-looking social media influencers with completely different names. Makes it impossible to know who's real, since the accounts are not tied to a Facebook account for example. Ended up not messaging anyone, because what's the point? Additionally, when signing up for a trial membership they will automatically convert it into a full membership that costs dozens of Euros per month. There's no email notifying you before this takes effect. Since I forgot about the website for several months, I ended up paying over €100 before I discovered this and cancelled my subscription. Was denied a refund despite not having logged in to the site during that period. Extremely dishonest and useless site.

This site is completely scam for money. Most profile on there and non-subscribers. I message them, I got no reply. It's a waste of time. I think free site is better. I have spent 6 month on match.com but couldn't a real woman on there.

I have met a man in this dating site thinking he is my soulmate. I realize he was a conman and tried to have intimate relationship to get something. Any women should do back checkup before you date. Lot of scammer and conman in this site.

Joined Match.com thinking it was the way to put myself back out there after my divorce. Well I would class myself as a good looking bloke and going from the look of my ex wife I would know the type of woman I would go for. On Match however the woman are rude and stuck up their own ** and that’s if they are even real. Then no matter how much filtering you use you get some ugly mush who is 70 years old or just so ugly her face just keeps appearing on your profile so you have to block it to keep your sanity. I’ve paid for 6 months of this rubbish and so far Cannot even get a conversation because nobody is real. I’ve joined Tinder and within 2 days had conversations with a good few ladies already. If I could I’d get a refund from Match I would but I suppose I’ve got to live with it, they should change the name to Fugly Match.Com because it’s more appropriate!!

I tried Match for 18 months. I am sorry it is nothing but a scam. Many of the links are dead ends and when I think I found someone, the conversations stop. Plus I am being billed for a premium membership when I signed up for a basic membership. Finally if my billing started in December 2017, why am I being already billed for another 6 months in May? It's not about wanting you to find your love. They just want your money.

First looking through Match it seems to be a good place to go. Well organized, clean looking, thorough questions and so on. But to look at any matches you need to make a profile, this is free of course so easy enough. To message anyone you need to pay. Usually around $20 a month with a minimum of 3 months. Cool, made a profile, reviewed matches, found a few interesting ones and subscribed. That's why you get to find out that 90% of the profiles shown are non-subscribers. This means that not only can they not read and reply to your message, they don't even get notified of it. And sending a message is the only way to know someone isn't subscribed because Match won't let people state it in their profiles. So you want to cancel your subscription, easily done. But if you send a single message or view any of your likes while subscribed for even an hour you automatically lose all rights to a refund, no matter how much you paid for it.

After a really bad break up I decided to try Match.com. I was taking my time and slowly getting into the app. I hadn’t been on it in a couple weeks and I started getting emails saying guys were messaging me. When I logged into Match.com someone had hacked my account. There were pictures on the site that weren’t me! The hacker had liked and messaged guys I wouldn’t of messaged! When I called to try to cancel my account all they did was say they’d reset my password. It could still happen again. The men that the hacker liked and messaged were still on my account. It was humiliating. It would of been awkward to try to explain. I asked for it to be cancelled but they refused to refund my remaining time. This service is terrible. I’ll only use free site from now on because if your privacy is violated at least you can close your account without losing a bunch of money.

If you're thinking about joining Match.com open up your wallet because the fee doesn't get you anything. You have to pay extra 4 bumps to the front of the line and for people to see you. I called up to complain and they gave me 1 free boost which cost $3 for one hour for people to see you. Told me to use it during peak times. I told them that's terrible. I'm paying for this service and now I have to pay extra. I knew they were not showing me everybody and not letting me be shown. The free sites are better, save your money.

This was pathetic. I thought I was going on Match.com to find a suitable woman, which I thought I did. Guess what? The woman I thought I found turned out to be a Ghanaian scammer who stole photos of an actual US Marine. It was bad enough that I got no luck on Match.com with real women, but for Match.com to allow this fake profile to go through the cracks was unacceptable. Their failure to monitor the fake profile cost me about $100000, which I am now stuck for the next seven years. Never once did Match.com advise me of the warnings about the dangers of online dating, and being new to the dating scene, Match.com never looked out for my interests.

Match.com is plagued with issues. I don’t know where the real relationships come from, but all I’ve had is one man after another wanting sex. It’s just a hookup site. Nothing else. Women need to be very careful. Even the “good guys” are wolves in sheep’s clothing. Site should be shut down permanently.

I installed the app yesterday, thought to give it a go as I heard it is one of the most popular apps out there. Within minutes after full registration I realized that you can only read/reply to messages if you pay for membership. I naively paid for 6 month membership as it was on 'offer', ended up paying £60 just to read the messages.

I went to Match.com's site really just to browse. But they have you create a profile even just to search. So I created a profile, did a search and saw some interesting potential matches. I considered purchasing a membership but wanted to think about it. So I typed a brief description that literally just said that I was interested in dating and a possible long term relationship with a charming male. I logged out, and when I tried to log in later to purchase a membership, I received a message that my "account" was suspended due to violation of company policies. Lol!

I was in touch with two guys. The first one was ready to get my bank account so he could send me millions of dollars in VW stock his ailing mother in Germany gave him, sure. The second was all lovey dovey until he asked me for a $700 loan. Oh he promises to pay me back. Well to hell with Match, buyer beware. I would give zero stars if it would let me.

It's been a while but I will never use Match or any of its spin offs. Like the worst dating sites in the world they send fake messages from fake profiles to get men to buy in and sign up. Keeps the finds coming in. You can try to reach real women but there are so many men good luck ever getting a response. Online dating guarantees frustration, mismatches and lost money and time. A person is better off doing volunteer work where you can run into real people. They should call it MisMatch.

I noticed I was getting a lot of solicitation phone calls after I joined Match. They do not keep your phone # private. Also noticed they have fake members. Too many add on charges of $10.00 that should be included in the membership price. I complained but they would not refund my money, because I messaged a member - who was fake!

This site has blocked my profile after one woman decided to harass me incessantly. She even threatened to harass me to the end of the world. I filed a complaint with the police after she stalked me. Now my Match account is blocked without recourse. I was a member of Match off and on since 2004 with two long term relationships for most of that time. Match is horrible in their investigations and there is no recourse at all to get my profile, or log on. Very definitely a bad company to deal with. All I can do is try to get my money back thru the credit card company. Does anyone have any suggestions?

Site is filled with fake or inactive profiles. I've had more responses from eHarmony (surprisingly) using basically the same profile/pictures. You message away only to see something was "delivered" to a supposedly "active" profile, and they never even view yours in return! I understand some people get overwhelmed with things, or some may be free members, but if someone messaged you, you would at least see who it was, anyone can view profiles!

I signed up for Match.com and paid membership for it for 3 months. All I get is a bunch of off-shore oil drilling contractor guys contacting me. They all have the same profile and manners. Undoubtedly, they are all scams. Fortunately, I never got too far with them. They speak all kinds of nice words. What's amazing is that they are all off-shoring drilling guys. I suppose that is the best way to hide your identity being a moving target. Match.com must sub-contract its website to a third party. It seems pretty disconnected from the US website service. They would do me a great service by refunding me all the money I spent. They are just horrible. Really bad!

On March 18, 2019, after having a free account for several months, and being offered many promotional pricing offers, I finally joined Match. I paid $44.83 for three months for a Basic membership. I was receiving many likes and was contacted by many members and I responded to some of them. About 5 weeks after I joined on the week of April 22, 2019. I tried to add some pictures from my Facebook account. The next day I noticed I had a note from Match saying that I had to contact them by phone. I contacted them within 48 hours and was told that my account had been cancelled and that my money had been returned.

I'm sympathetic to all these people having a bad experience on Match, but I can't relate to any of it. I've been on the site off and on for years and never had a problem. Women write me, I write them, we exchanged numbers, and I go on dates. From my perspective, it works exactly the way a dating site is supposed to.

It's a standard dating app like most others, although this one is costly and it's loaded with ads on every page you can imagine, including in-app add-ons.

I was a Match.com member and I completed my guarantee period which entitled me to a free six month extension of my membership. Match.com charged my card anyway. I disputed the charge with my bank and Match.com took action! They closed my account, blocked me and banned me forever. They refunded the charge, but I lost my free six month service extension. All I wanted to do was prevent Match.com from illegally stealing my money. The facts speak for themselves. There aren't enough adjectives to describe how incompetent and deceitful they are!

My husband and I met on Match in 2016. A friend recently confronted me with her daily match. It was my husband. His username was different from when we met in 2016 and it showed active. When we got married it was hidden and he claimed he deleted. So I confronted him because I'm thinking wth...cheater. He claims he has not paid for it since 2016, which on the email account he claimed they verified that. He claims he had no idea it wasn't deleted and that Match.com is the one that changed his price username without him knowing anything. Now in my heart I feel my husband is really full of it. But just to make consumers aware this happen and I will be leaving him.

Towards the end of March 2019, I received a flattering offer from Match and purchased a 6 month subscription for $60 USD. All that elapsed between then and now (April 17, 2019) is as follows. Filled out my profile, which is very extensive. The bio section must be approved by a match rep. I wrote mine and tweaked it a few times but essentially the premise is the same. I filled out my profile in all senses of the word. I even had three pictures up. I was very specific about what I was seeking. What I noticed is the site doesn't follow any specific algorithms and instead, does the opposite of what you ask for. If you're looking for men between the ages of 35-41, you might get a few hits but majority are older and don't fit the criteria of what you want. Think more along the lines of creeps, angry and hostile men, narcissists, predators, etc.

I think they recruit ladies to send out messages/likes to males so that males would be motivated to pay membership. So if you report to Match about those seemingly fake lady profiles they will obviously do nothing. This is simply to boost their revenues.

I was on this site 17 years ago and it was pretty straightforward. After breaking up two years ago I thought I would try it again. Now it is extremely difficult to navigate, you can’t search by name, you can’t hit the back button to check who searched in reverse order, at least half the people who are supposedly like me really aren’t. There’s a very high percentage of scams and they’re easy to spot. Beautiful women who look like they’re 35 claiming to be 50 or 60 from all over the country. I contacted 30 women and none have even acknowledged my time. My profile was hacked into with some other guy trying to put his pictures in my profile. A waste of time.

I signed up for 3 months, and after about 2 months I knew I didn't want to continue with the service so in order to NOT have the service renew, I canceled through their website and got the cancellation email. The next month they charged my credit card anyway for another 3 months. I called them and told them that I had canceled and gave them the date so they said they would refund my money. Once again, I got the refund email, but they only refunded part of the charge. I got in touch with them once again but they refused to refund the full amount. Don't use this service unless you want your card to be wrongfully charged.

On the night of April 10th 2019 I subscribed to Match, paid subscription cost. By mid morning April 11th 2019 my account was blocked without warning or cause. I followed all the rules and guidelines imposed by Match in reference to pics, profiles, and messages. None of the guidelines were violated. I reached out to customer support whom presenting a strong dialect which made communication very difficult. None of my concerns were addressed and the agent continued to repeat the script over and over. I asked to speak with a supervisor. Was placed on hold and informed by agent that supervisor would not take the call due to the fact that her department could not assist me. I would have to wait up to 48 hrs for the right department to contact me via email. Upon reading the reviews this is a very common practice displayed by Match on a daily basis. How can we shed more light and get resolution?

My credit card was hacked with multiple fraudulent charges, shortly after paying for Match.com. I do not use my credit card at restaurants, gas stations, and do very minimal online purchasing. The last online purchase was done two months earlier. Other complaints about Match.com's securing of credit cards and accounts have also appeared in other reviews. Beware. Thankfully, the fraud department at my institution immediately caught the multiple fraudulent charges and shut down my card. A horrible inconvenience and certainly better account protection needs to be implemented by Match.com.

I’ve been a member for a while. Today, Match sent me a new email, review the new member profile it said. Ha ha. I was 20 years younger, a bit uglier if that is possible, and other changes. I went to log in. When you log in, you must pick the cars and fire hydrants, busses and crosswalks, to see and change your profile. BUT, then your new profile cannot be changed. And, when you try to get help, be prepared for... another joke. Match has great profiles online but, you can see them without joining, do yourself a favor and look elsewhere. Find a site without busses, crosswalks, and hydrants.

Hit my credit two months after I canceled. Won't give me a full refund even though I cancelled over two months ago. Logged back in to ensure cancelled account and it was uncanceled again even though I have cancelled confirmation numbers. Email support claiming I didn't cancel even though I have a confirmation number!

Match.com is an online dating site that gives you a lot of flexibility in choosing who you contact and a wide search criteria. I met my wife of 7 years on Match. I feel that I was too old for the bar scene, and the nature of my job made it difficult, if not impossible to meet someone to develop a relationship at work. I've used other dating sites, and they tend to be more prohibitive to pare down the type of person you are interested in, you have to answer a litany of screening questions, etc.

I paid for a subscription. Sent a few messages but barely got any responses. Chatted with potential guy and as soon as we decided to meet, I could no longer contact them. I’m a ** woman but got so many matches with people who clearly specified their preference in other ethnicities. The others I got matched with seem to be separated, even though I had not selected ‘separated’ as a likable option. A complete waste of time especially when you’re thinking of giving, only to get a new message, and the same thing happens.

I believe these sites shadow block your messages so you will pay more $ for perks. Think about it. They want to make $. They dont want you on there for week and then find someone then cancel your subscriptions. Wake up people. These sites are big corporation/ government run. I even asked 50 girls to reply not interested if they didnt respond to my first message. Not 1 did! Am I the only one that thinks this is highly suspicious. I also am not fat and an attractive guy. I also send very polite messages. No vulgar pics either. These sites are trying to separate us! It is evil! God bless.

Joined a while back, never any matches in my area, and noticed a HUGE influx of SPAM emails. Almost all of which were dating related, ** women wanting to meet, sexy singles, etc. Deleted my account and after maybe 4-6 months the amount of SPAM finally dropped down from 40 a day to maybe 1 or 2. Been about a year since I tried Match.com, and on average I get maybe 5 junk emails a day, mostly cheap meds or mortgages, etc. Last week, tried to rejoin but couldn't. Said email address in use. Tried the 'forgot password' link and never got an email to reset with. Within the hour, I had 60 SPAM email in my Hotmail account, and again, all were ** women, dating, cheating housewives, etc. Been a week and still getting 40-60 of these in my email a day. Tell me that's a coincidence? Obviously entering in your email address on Match.com triggers something because now I'm stuck clearing my SPAM folder constantly, same as last time I joined.

I had closed my account but unknown to me they upgraded my subscription and continued charging me 6 monthly payments for a year. I have emailed them because it is the weekend and their customer service dept is not open! How dare they I am furious I have not used it for a year because I had cancelled it I thought. Can anyone tell me what is the regulatory body that I complain to because I am not expecting them to refund me voluntarily. They owe me £350.00 that I knew nothing about.

Match.com is SCAM! I have registered and paid with my credit card. I got access to use the dating site and after 3 days my account was blocked without any information why. I have sent 4 messages to customer service to explain and to deblock my account but I never got an answer. I registered again with another user name, paid again, and again. After a few days my account was blocked without any reason. Match.com is one big scam, never register on there as it's wasting your money and time.

First, when I try to respond on their feedback pop-up, it always puts on more stars than I want and quickly disappears. Second, if I put in no one ever responds, even to say not interested. Then within a week I get someone I might be interested in, they talk one night or day and then disappear from site. Talk about company set-up. Third, I believe Match controls too much trying to get me to extend subscription.

I signed up for a year not realizing that it was going to charge me all at once, which I definitely can’t afford. The only people I’m being matched with are so far out of my age range that it’s uncomfortable (some close to being old enough to be my grandfather — I’m 25 for reference). I sent an email explaining my dissatisfaction & requested a refund. Waiting to see what they say. If they initially refuse, I’ll fight like hell to get my money back.

The problem with Match.com is that much like every other dating site out there it's let down by the users. It's full of Judgemental people who are only looking for someone who is perfect and Ghosters who stop responding when you start to arrange to meet. It's a humongous waste of time and money. I would only recommend match if you look like Brad Pitt or something similar as that is your only chance of getting a response. You'd be better off using any other free dating site where exactly the same thing happens but you don't have to pay a premium to be blocked or ignored.

These people are thieves and first class cons. They show your profile to everyone and even give you fake likes and interests to get you to pay up. Once you're subscribed, they hide your profile or limit its exposure. Access to my account was blocked after a week for no reason. I had not broken any rules nor posted anything provocative, distasteful or illegal. You can have access blocked to your account for no reason and because you checked off the user agreement, you're out of your money. Never experienced such shenanigans on any other platform. You literally have to subpoena them to reveal the reason why they blocked your access. Prospective users: BE WARNED.

Hi, I opened an account on Match.com, followed the instructions, uploaded a (nice) picture as requested, didn't take the time to write a text, figuring I had to think it over and would do it later. The next day, when I tried logging on, I got a message that my account was blocked and to contact customer service which I did. Here is their response: "Your Match account has been terminated. Due to our privacy practices, we cannot disclose specifics about any Match account, including your own." So, they refuse to tell me the reason why they terminated my own account. I say, don't bother with that site, look elsewhere.

This company does not deserve any stars. You pay three months in advance and get nothing for it. They say you can contact other people - you can't. They send you possible matches and they're far from being matches. It's pathetic waste of time and money.

My wife tried getting this for her brother who lives in Columbia. They took all the info. He tried accessing it and couldn't because it's US only then they tried saying couldn't find any charges, contact the bank. I called them from the bank. They wanted a 23 digit number that they claimed would fix the problem instead of doing what I was told by Denny. They had to forward to another dept as they had no phone. Evidentially all they did was forward the issue and didn't even included the info they were suppose to so buyer beware. Don't use them. They will rip you off.

BEWARE! I paid for three months in advance. My Match profile froze and could not be fixed or edited. Match suggested allowing them to delete my profile and then I could put up a new one and they would credit the remaining balance of my payment to the new account. I tried repeatedly to resubscribe but was refused over and over. When I spoke to customer service they could not find the problem but insisted they could keep the balance of my payment because I authorized their deletion of my profile, even though it was their suggestion. I would never recommend this horrible dating service to anyone.

Shortly after a woman I'd messaged responded with a request for a chat to which I'd responded accordingly, her account was blocked for reasons unknown. I repeatedly discussed the matter with customer service, only to be told that there was "nothing we can do." A block as a block, and company policy — on pain of the reps being fired — prevented them from simply letting the woman know that because the block had happened AFTER we'd connected as described above, they would at least give her my contact info (phone number and email address) and let her decide what to do with it. With nothing to lose from doing so and everything to gain — the woman, myself, and Match.com — "company policy" could not be "violated," period. Which is to say that this "matchmaking" company couldn't lift a finger to further its own reason for being, its employees too frozen in fear to do their jobs. Disgusting.

I've been on Match.com for two different stretches. I did connect on two separate occasions with dates that evolved into short term relationships. However I would not recommend this site to anyone unless they understand how the site "works". Match has recently made some changes in the appearance of profiles that makes it far less transparent as to whether or not the profile is "active" - meaning has a live subscription and can respond to emails etc. In my first subscription (3 month period) about a year and half ago, it would say next to a profile primary picture "active". Sometime in the last year, they changed this to a dot that becomes partially colored or fully shaded according to how recently the person signed on.

Signed up for Match.com because I thought paying for a matching service would yield results. I was wrong. In the months I was active, I sent messages to 200 profiles and received three responses. I did get one date from someone who was not looking for a relationship. Based upon my experience, I cannot recommend Match.com.

I only signed up for three months. I'm a very nice looking woman and had a good profile. Several times I went to edit my profile and did it, but, NEVER did the changes take place. The pictures and profiles that they "matched" me with were so wrong. This was my second experience with dating sites. I believe that for the most part they are a scam to line someone's pockets. I have discontinued my service after the three months. Have received confirmation of this, with confirmation number and the date my subscription ends. I think I'll just go back to the old fashion way.

This site is crap. Have been on and off of it and it is not what they say it is. In my opinion they say you will but I let my subscription run out and now it says I have several likes. That's BS. Oh now that I can't send messages it says I have some. Yeah OK. Total farce this site is. Not ever using it again and I hope you never do either. Trust me it's total crap!!!

I signed up for a new membership to Match.com and paid the fee. I had access for a couple of hours, during which time I sent several short and innocuous "hello, nice profile, would you like to chat?" type emails. My profile was very generic and in no way provocative or offensive. I logged off for several hours, then when tried to log back in, only to get a message that I was blocked from my account without explanation.

I subscribed to Match.com in 2013. Back then the subscription was cheaper, maybe as expected when taking into account inflation, but more importantly you got dates. I got one a week for a while. I then left and decided to rejoin last year in 2018. I've been signed up for other six months but didn't manage to get one date in this time. I let my subscription expire about one week ago to sign on this evening and found seventeen people favorite me and two winks. I got an average of two favorites a month when I subscribed to their overpriced service but why I am now getting so much attention from all of those women. Especially in just one week after I stopped my subscription.

I contacted Match.com customer service asking why there were a bunch of Likes sent from my account to a dozen women I had not reviewed or intended to indicate interest in. And the website offers no way of deleting Likes that Match.com sends to people without your consent. Match replied saying that the first batch of Matches you receive are automatically sent Likes if you don't Like or Skip them immediately. That ticked me off. But I went ahead and used the service for two of the three months I paid for. Then I noticed that it wasn't just the first group of Matches they send. Match continued to send fake Likes indiscriminately the entire time. I sent another email to support and this time I wasn't passive about it. I told them to stop sending fake likes from my account.

Okay. Admittedly there are less scammers on Match than POF or other sites because you have to pay. BUT, there are also way less matches, especially viable matches. They do not honor 6 month guarantee so do not purchase 6 month plan thinking they will actually honor it. Two separate occasions they denied their guarantee to me. First time was because I hid my profile for 1 week out of 6 months. Ok, fine. The second 6 months I purchased I made sure I followed every rule and they would not honor it saying it was not within 1st 6 months. It says nothing in guidelines about not being first 6 months, regardless I never even received in the 1st 6 months. Spoke with customer service and a supervisor which got me nowhere. Extremely poor customer service. I am 44 and would get likes all the time from 60 and 70 yr old men. Don't waste your money!

Female scammer asking for money named Kathy then tells me her name is Angela ** and that she is moving from Texas to Kansas. I corresponded to for 4 days saying she was in China and she needed 500 for iTunes card to be able to text me and several days later she said she owned an antique business with a warehouse in Florida and that she needed 8300 to purchase antiques in China!!! She gave a website to check out and I looked at the items that were on the site which looked really nice I then said no and that she was looking for money and what an awful thing that was value money over friendship.

Within a three month period, only four people responded to my messages. There is absolutely no reason why only four people out of eighty plus people never took an interest... Especially since I'm pleasant, I'm not ugly, and I'm not weird. The individuals that did respond were either ugly, weird, too old, or failed to meet the commonality criteria. Why does anyone even bother paying money to meet someone if they aren't willing to talk? In short, for anyone that might be suicide-prone, do not try Match.com because the neglect and isolation will only lead to an increase of suicide attempts. Match.com is a murderer.

A lot of fakes and scammers. I received a nasty email from them saying they don’t support married people or people in relationships then they gave me a copy of the user agreement. I am not married or in a relationship! When I called customer service the lady barely speaks English and proceeded to tell me that I had to contact corporate about my issue then hangs up!!! Meanwhile they deleted my account but continue to charge me!!??

This assessment is based on my experience as a customer of Match.com for over 5 years intermittently. Before posting this review online here, I approached their Customer Services Team and had several correspondences with them. The conclusions are as follows: The person who replied to my inquiries each time refused to give me his surname, stating that he was 'one of the Customer care advisor on Match.com' but 'unable to give me his surname.' He refused to send or advise me of the Internal Complaints Procedure, before -as I said to him- resorting to Third Parties.

Honestly, Match is better than POF or Cupid. By having paid members, there are less people looking to hook up or post dirty offensive emails or nasty pictures to women users. On all these dating sites we have scammers, game players, and married people. I don't think Match.com has any more bad stuff than POF. The problem is this... Being a modern-day middle age woman with no grey hair yet and fit body and college degrees trying to date men within 5 years my age up or down (my age) when these men want young girls, it makes it hard to date!!! We live in a society where everyone is so critical of one another and we have chip on our shoulders. I think some men need a therapist more than they need a girlfriend or wife.

Tried this site and being a professional man of South Asian descent, majority of the woman are closed minded. The profiles are duplicates and there are a lot of spammers on this site. When your membership is about to end you start getting emails from members to try to get you to continue on the site so that you can renew your membership. Clearly these messages are sent by the company who set up these profiles. For the life of me I couldn't even get any dates on this site and I am educated, had great pictures and am a good hearted person. Stay away from this site from my opinion, especially if you are a visible minority. The site is not a good quality site. You are better off asking people on dates off the street. The company lacks customer service. They don't respond to messages or inquiries.

Match is the go-to for people who don't know a lot about online dating and haven't bothered to keep up on mobile-app-based dating. There's nothing wrong with that or the people on Match. The problem is major technical regressions on Match and straight-up incompetence. For a while they had removed the "favoriting" function... so you couldn't save interesting profiles. WTF? That has been fixed, but now you have the opposite problem: There's no way to REMOVE people from your favorites, even if their profile no longer exists. Match handled "favorites" perfectly well 10 years ago! How do you mess up such a simple feature EVER, let alone now?

Simply put Match.com is a scam. Make no mistake, their only goal is to get as much money out of you as possible selling the dream of finding your soulmate online. Their advertisements are good at drawing you in, but once you are in you are on your own. They try to sell so many extras to "boost" your chances, but they are nothing more than gimmicks to get even more money out of you.

I signed up for a trial. I never received a confirmation email confirming what subscription I had signed up for, how many months it was for, if an auto-renewal would happen, and where I could locate the terms and conditions on how to cancel the membership. It lapsed without an email stating they would be drafting money from my account. After finding the terms and conditions buried on their website, they use very unethical language in order to keep your money - even if you have never used the service. You also are not allowed to participate in a class action lawsuit because you signed up with them. https://www.match.com/registration/membagr.aspx?lid=108

Signed up and paid for 3 months. The site was difficult to set up and at times I was not able to log in. Decided to cancel next day. Believed that I was entitled to refund if I cancelled within 3 days. Called and learned that it only applied to certain states. Florida where I live is not one of them. In my estimation they stole $58.48 from me. Beware!!

Match is so proud of their CEO, Ivy educated Mandy. The woman is an idiot! This site was very good before she took over, but it’s now a customer’s nightmare. There’s NO customer service, they gladly take payment, then gleefully don’t provide the service. Their App is a disaster, like the rest of Mandy’s mismanagement. I’m interested in aggregating others to file a class action suit against them. That’s what will be required to get the Board’s attention and direct major changes in management, with real results.

I created an account with Match twice after realizing my account was deactivated or changed, allowing someone else to use it while my membership was active. I could not sign in anymore. I sent an email to Match about the problem. I did not receive a response. Twice scammed. In my opinion. I get notifications from the person using my email address when someone likes him. He is a man. I am a woman. I can’t reach out to him to let him know about the issue. Very frustrating.

I’ve subscribed to Match off and on over the years. The last few years there has been a steady increase in fake profiles. The matches they send you are always hundreds of miles away. You would think being a premium member would have some extra perks, but instead I’ve had to pay extra to have my profile brought to the front of the line. In addition there is also an extra charge giving permission to men who don’t want to pay to respond to emails. Why would I want to pay for someone else in addition to all the other add-ons??? What am I getting for being a “premium” member?? I even paid to have someone write my profile...still no results. Match has gone downhill and to me at this point is just a money making scam. Save yourself the trouble...don’t bother with this site.

I signed up on Match.com thinking it was free until they said I had to subscribe to see messages and likes. I can't afford $80 a week on how little money I make. They repeat the same people over again on the matches and on the "You liked" section it kept on adding people you said no to. This is such a scam and a waste of my time.

I signed up for Match on 1/13/19 and I started receiving emails and likes from a variety of men. Many of whom I questioned, but then last night (1/17) I noticed in You liked section there were hundreds of profiles listed with dates to the side as if I had liked all of them. Over the few days of having the service I know I had only liked less than 10 profiles, clearly, something is wrong. This morning I initiated a chat with a Match rep she advised, "Actually, a feature to remove sent likes is currently unavailable. In order to remove likes sent from your account, please go to this member's profile and select the option "hide from search", then, remove and those likes will be removed from your list".

Unlike other reviewers, I don't think Match is flooded with fake profiles. Trust me, I have tried just about every dating site there is and the free dating sites are flooded with pornographic images trying to lure you to prostitution sites. However, even on sale Match's membership is rather pricey so it is possible many of the profiles are free users who can't receive any message you send or the person abandoned the profile because they weren't getting attention. Match definitely needs to make paid users stand out so you at least know you are writing to someone who can respond. I'm quite picky about who I am looking for, so there were only 30 people in a 50 mile radius who met my criteria. The automated matching is rather annoying since they use machine learning to choose who to show to you and they can't seem to get the idea that I am picky about what I want.

This company is providing outdated profiles of people who no longer are active. I know this from experience... I have sent over 200 interest emails to ladies over a short period of time. It is totally inconceivable that I would only receive 2 back. I am a successful, attractive man in my 50's who has visited other dating sites in the past, with 10 times higher response rate. I also have other friends who are experiencing the same. Most of these profiles of women are not active, there is no other explanation. I would caution anyone interested in subscribing to not. The company should be slammed with a class-action lawsuit with fraud and misleading information.

Match.com is a joke. It's only free to sign up, but if you sign up, they preload matches for you, so they can take your money. Stay away. You have been warned. If you don't believe me, just pay attention on your matches, they won't change.

WORST DATING SITE ever. Zero dates or matches in a month compared to many matches and dates on free sites like POF. Most men on their have ONE pic and do not ever respond to a gorgeous woman like me - as they are 90% FAKE PROFILES!!! Only real people they have is 60 - 80 year old dirty grandpas...and as soon as I politely pointed out I was HALF their age and NOT interested in dating them...I got a HARASSING EMAIL stating I am off the site for "improper communications" and violating the rules. Excuse me? Is this Sex Trafficking Site and Match Douchebags think I am their property and they are selling me to their 80 year old patrons? They won't even refund the $90 fee! RUN from this MATCH SCAM!

There is a reason why Match.com is not accredited by Consumer Affairs and has an 'F' rating with the Better Business Bureau. My first and only experience with online dating began last September 2, 2018. I ended up being romanced and scammed for $530,000 and only realized what happened on Christmas Day 2018. I contacted Match.com to report my loss and the user's 'name'. Only the FBI can access information, IP addresses, etc. from Match. I called again to verify that my comments were noted on my account and this time, instead reaching their call center in Costa Rica, someone at the Match headquarters in Texas answered.

Out of 100, maybe 1 is a real profile. Even had a 2-month 'relationship' with someone who eventually asked for US8600 to buy a part for oil rig. Yes, many engineers and oil & gas industry folks that they claim to be. Match auto renewed after 6 months to which I was not aware. Tried to contact via email to Singapore office, link has error. No means of reaching them. US customer service said it is an international account - can't help me. No refund, no dates... What a waste of time and money.

When I tried to cancel my subscription they said they needed my drivers license and banking information then they accessed my Amazon account and tried to bill my credit card. They also had access to my Gmail account and said they are trying to protect my privacy through the internet and they needed this information. Do not use this website as my experience was horrible. I had to cancel all my banking and all my Hotmail accounts and other information they had access to.

I noticed an unauthorized charge to my debit card for the present month. Called Match.com and they gave me a refund for this month and cancelled the membership. Upon further further research on my bank statement, I discovered that Match.com had been deducting a fee each month for $38.99 since March 17, 2017. I rarely use this debit card due to having a primary bank account and debit card. I called Match.com and they would only give me 1 additional refund for $38.99. They told me they couldn't refund any more than 2 months. I told them I had never applied for membership to this website. But, they said that was their policy. So they took $600+ of my money for something I didn't sign up for, nor authorize. Scammers, that's all they are. DO NOT APPLY TO THIS OR ANY OTHER ONLINE DATING WEBSITE!!!! They are all scammers! BTW, they could find none of my information in their records.

These dating sites are all fake, as are the hookup sites. They either want your phone number, or to get you to go to a paid site, or a verification scam. They tell you they want to verify you and send you to a site which is offering a free trial, when you click OK, they try to charge you for almost $50. I once looked at starting an honest site. I looked at software and the companies were advertising that it comes with so many thousands of fake profiles.

I joined a few days ago for a three month subscription. I was able to immediately sign on and review my matches after I paid. The next day my email and password were not recognized. I called Match and they said they had no record of me even though I have a PayPal receipt. Clearly I am disputing my payment.

Many guys on this site are obviously fake profiles. No one responds, because who know who's even subscribed? Also, if you are an international traveler, don't count on being able to use this site outside of the United States. Your subscription only seems to work in the country of origin. Still single and Match never helped me, send me a message at **.

I had an awful experience on Match dating site last year 2018. I met a guy who is a fake profile and turned out to be a scammer that I didn’t know and I lost close to $280,000.00. I reported it to Match but they told me that they take my case is seriously. I have emailed to Amanda Ginsberg CEO for a few times but she has not respond and don’t care my case.

This information may not be able to help those of you who have already been stung, but it may provide some helpful information to someone. My experience with Match.com occasionally over a ten-year period went from great to terrible. Even 10 years ago, I believe most users were able to tell which profiles were stale or no longer actually in effect. We all navigated through to find the real people, and had good success. Lately, though Match.com seems to be experiencing technical problems, either by hackers or actually self-inflicted through deceitful practices or sharing profiles across too many platforms. (Easily recognizable when there are questions you did not have the opportunity to answer, or a layout that is different from your own.)

These people are nothing but crooks... They’ll automatically renew your subscription at full price without any prior notification, and will not provide a refund. As a matter of fact...when I complained, they deactivated my account as well and kept the money. Currently disputing with my credit card. Also the “match guarantee” is a load of BS. Read the fine print.

I had signed up for a 6 month membership with Match and had some contacts. Mostly men who said they were engineers. One asked for $5000 to buy a new part for the oil rig he was working on. I then cut him off. Other men were looking for a "God fearing woman"... Come on. Who would want to be with this kind of man? I canceled my membership because I met a man from another dating site. I'm sure I checked the box for no renewal of membership, however when I looked at my credit card bill I was charged with a renewal.

After using this site for the last 6 months I can’t believe their new year advertising campaign for 2019. They’ve based the advert on fake news. How ironic when everything about this dating site is fake. Half of their members are no longer members and very few people live in your local area. I would have cancelled my membership after the first hour if this was possible. In addition to this these people will take another payment from your bank account unless you cancel your subscription so read the small print. I know other people with the same views who have also been caught out. Save your money, ignore the fake advertising campaign and join a different site. Please note these people also own Plenty of Fish and numerous other sites. Check them out as I’m sure the same crafty habits apply.

Even Billy the Kid had the courtesy to wear a mask when he robbed people. Match.com does it barefaced and with a misleading service platform. This is a class action suit waiting to happen for any attorney who wants to take a stab at it. I could go into elaborate detail about the devious methods Match.com uses to lure people into paying more money for features, the out of date, abandoned accounts...in fact, EVERYTHING POSTED on this site prior to my review but why repeat it all. Everything you've read on Consumer Affairs is all fairly accurate. DON'T WASTE YOUR MONEY OR TIME. You're better off finding a date somewhere else...anywhere else, for that matter. Match.com should be shut down by the Federal Trade Commission.

I have been a member of Match.com on-and-off for a couple decades. Yes DECADES. Early this month I noticed a charge on my card that indicated I had been charged for an Automatic Renewal of my Match.com account. When I joined this most recent time (last summer?), I remember distinctly checking the "Do Not Auto-Renew" button on the membership page, because I decided that this would be my "last hurrah".

Current user [though the 3-month subscription is set not to renew on PayPal]. This is my second time on Match [last was back in 2012 – quite honestly, I met many quality women — dated a gem I met on Match for 4 years. Just a few observations so far, FWIW: Match pads your daily matches with fake accounts. Easy to spot: most often a single photo. Minimal, generic “About Me” copy. A quick “Search by image” on “images.Google.com” routinely results in stock images. Obviously, management’s boilerplate response might be: we’re a global site – impossible to stop, catch and block all fake accounts. Whether blatantly deceitful on Match’s part or not, it’s up to you to decide.

I joined Match.com, I took the leap to pay for the membership. The company automatically charged me at 6 months even though I had deactivated my account. I tried to find a way to contact them and much to my dismay there was only a mailing address, no phone contact. So I contacted PayPal to explain, they refused to give me my money back. That said I was still enrolled in the sites membership and the purchase was authorized. The way to actually deactivate and cancel your membership is so buried in the website it’s almost invisible. I wouldn’t recommend Match.com to my worst enemy! I wouldn’t even recommend PayPal at this point!

The worst money ever spend in my life. Half of profiles are fake and the other half did close their account but their pictures are still on Match. So when you close your account make sure that you delete the pictures first. Before you go out with any of this girls don't be afraid or shy to ask them if they take any type of medication. Don't go out for lunch or dinner because it may turn out that you don't like each other and then you're stuck.

Many women on this site are obviously fake profiles. When you live in Alaska and multiple girls are smoking hot models with profile pictures in the Bahamas and generic descriptions like "Just looking for a nice guy; I love music food and adventure," it starts to set off red flags. No one responds, because who know who's even subscribed? Also, if you are an international traveler, don't count on being able to use this site outside of the United States. Your subscription only seems to work in the country of origin.

Refusing to refund money after only 2 days of purchase. Read the details fully! They promise a full refund within 3 days of purchase, but they refuse to honor. They also placed a double charge on my bank account. The few people that messaged me were very obviously scammers. Very fraudulent company.

I signed on with Match a little over a month ago. I think that my profile was professional and with enough detail but not overly long. I view myself as fairly attractive for my age. I'm 63. I would send a message to a man that I found interesting. Very little if any response. Men my age or even older want all these women 20-30 years younger. I find that a little disturbing. I cancelled my auto renewal and received an email that they would keep my profile for 1 year after my membership ends. Well now I definitely wonder (and probably know the answer) as to how many profiles are active and legit.

Unlike a lot of the reviews that seem highly subjective - (OMG, it's Match.com's fault that my dating experience was so bad). Give me a break people, sounds more like a YOU problem. I'll just stick to the facts. Using various techniques that I won't go into here - I was able to figure out with 99% certainty that people who work for Match.com intentionally create fake profiles using stock photos or Google Image Search (thank you, Google!) results. They will intentionally word profiles to grant you "hits," in your search parameters and even send you messages - All in the hope that they'll sucker you into subscribing.

There is nobody actually real on this site. Someone needs to hold these websites accountable! After many attempts after people clicked as liking my profile absolutely zero replies. It’s criminal what they do!

Tired of being single after a divorce, I made the leap and signed on to Match.com. I'm here to tell you that just about every negative review you read on this consumer review page is, unfortunately true. I wish I had read all these reviews before paying for my subscription but I didn’t. Of over 325 "would-be" matches, the majority were either out of date, fake or non-paying members...which means they can't even respond to a message you may send if you have an interest.

First off, do not subscribe to this scam of a website. Despite what the commercials and "results" say, Match.com is an atrocity of a dating site. After surveying this site for years, I can safely say this site is a scam. From my own experience, during "working hours," there have been regularly between 60-65 members showing as "active." Yet in the evening, when you would think more people are searching, it drops by 85% to maybe 5-10 AT MOST. Doesn't this seem fishy? Well it is. It's because these profiles are either made and handled by Match.com employees or they are regularly made active to present the facade to browsing users in order to lure them into subscribing, only to then see the witch behind the mask they are wearing.

I signed up for the 6 month 'deal', which the site defaults for, with the idea that you 'only' pay a certain amount per month. Actually, you pay in full upfront. Your 'matches' are based on nothing other than age and distance. No matter what and how many times you put something more meaningful into the search parameters. Despite it being a paid-for membership, constant flashing adverts make the experience on the desktop version a visual nightmare, sort of a 1980s disco without decent music (and without any appealing men!).

Tried it a couple years ago. They charge you for a free service offered by others. Tired of paying for the same thing I can get through others... Pretty expensive, but that's how their executives get exclusive vacations... Anyways... I'm done playing dumb...

You used to get read notifications for free as part of the membership, now they're $2.99 a month. Beyond that, the membership is useless. You have to pay to message/respond to people, but most people don't pay. So you have to pay even more to let non-paying members respond. They should just charge a higher upfront fee and include all that ** instead of nickel-and-diming you after the fact.

I have been on there for 4 months and only met one person. Signed up for 6 month membership thinking it would save me money. Now Match has gone to the steps of if you don't meet someone in 6 months and write at least 5 new people per month they will extend the membership. Hell if you don't find at least one person in 6 months why extend it? Waste of money.

Match.com LLC is a waste of money. Many of the profiles are NOT paid members. The difference is you either pay or you have no access. They like to call all profiles a members. When you call which is limited non-customer service hours. 9-5 Texas time you will speak to the Philippines, Central America or TX. The phone reps are not helpful. I was working on my profile and was going to join, however they blocked my account. They won't tell you on the phone and say it will take 24-48 hours for an EMAIL reply. Search the internet for class actions against Match. Too bad the judges have thrown the cases out. I guess buyer beware.

First off I know I’m a unicorn in the dating world. I’m in shape, attractive, confident, make great money, travel the world, super fun, and extremely intelligent, (Ivy league education). So I go on the site, put together a solid profile, great photos, nothing too risky, to display myself for all to see. Well to my demise all I was getting was extremely unattractive women that were huge by any standards, scammers, extremely old women, (60 plus years old), women that basically wanted more kids and were pushing 40 plus years old, agnostic women, and out of three dates in three months it was a total disaster. All three women had MAJOR medical issues, ranging from deep depression, various stages of debilitating health issues, etc.

I signed up for Match based on their advertisement. I opted into a six month deal for the savings. Within a day I knew I had made a mistake, the site works terribly. I decided to cancel the purchase after seeing how awful the website is and the unlikely hood of having a match. For example, I was receiving messages from people who did not in anyway match my profile. I called to cancel. The person I spoke with told me that there is no refund, but they could stop future charges and refused to give my money back. I was very upset, because I had bought the 6 month plan and on day one hated it. I explained, "You are supposed to have x number of days free for trial anyway."

I've been trying to edit my profile for months now to no avail. It looked ridiculous, appeared as one long paragraph. I called and wrote many times to no avail. I was told they were aware of it and were looking into it just yesterday. I spoke to a very condescending woman after telling them in the Philippines I wanted to speak to someone in the U.S., who told me she met someone on Match so it works, lol. I told her it didn't work for women over 50 and that I wanted my profile fixed or wanted a refund or I was filing a complaint with the TX State Attorney General. This morning I get an email that my profile contains something offensive and will not be approved. I called again, got the Philippines and said I wanted again to speak to someone in the U.S.

As a Match.com member, I recently subscribed to a Match.com event. I was trying to find as much as possible about the event before submitting the order and, as I clicked on a button labeled LEARN MORE I was instantly charged with no possibility to review or cancel the order. I still want to attend the event but I am unpleasantly surprised by this experience.

I signed up for Match around Nov 1st. But only as a free membership. I did so cause there was an old classmate from high school as a member. So I figured why not now. I never had any bad interaction with this classmate in school, etc. So finally I get the $ to become a paid member Nov 30th. I'm not a paid member more than an hour and a half. I all sudden didn't feel right. I started to have internet problems. I get kicked. I go to re-sign in but forgot my password so I send for a link to replace said password.

Match.com is listed as a Christian dating site. This could not be further from the truth. All the men wanted sex before marriage. In fact, one guy told me that divorced women were easy to get in bed with because they were vulnerable and craved attention. There were a lot of men to choose from, but the quality was not there.

As others have noted, there seem to be a lot of scammers! Not only that, Match.com must not own a computer with algorithms, because even when you complete every option as to what you’re looking for, it’s totally ignored. For example, I checked that I want agnostics, they matched me with a PASTOR! I said I wanted matches within 100 miles of my home, and they’re sending me people from other states, none of which are within 100 miles. Also, even though I am a woman seeking a man, they occasionally match me with other women. I guess they are afraid if you don’t get enough matches, you’ll be disappointed, but I’d rather get none than a bunch that I wouldn’t even consider. Very frustrating! And, lastly, when you see something in your “inbox”, it’s actually your outgoing likes, smiles, or whatever.

Match.com came up with this new ** "For your safety, please request a new password" and lockout profiles time to time and make users keep requesting for new password countless times in a week, how senseless even banks don't make users request for a new password time to time because that will make users to be giving out too much information to cyber world. When most wise users don't even use their real email on dating site Match is trying to make it mandatory to use real email and make users give more information and make them more vulnerable and various aspects. Instead of Match.com to deal with pressing matters like reducing their charges and give members more appropriate matches, they are busy with irrelevant matter "For your safety, please request a new password" that would make many members abandon the site.

The interface is just like every other dating site out there, but the customer service is nonexistent. Used it for several months only for my account to have been deleted unexpectedly. Tried to find out why and dispute, Match said they couldn't find my account. Fast forward several months later, a year subscription renewal shows up on my bank statement. After doing more reading, it seems it's a fairly common occurrence for users accounts to just disappear for seeming no reason or because one person didn't like something and reported them.

I have been on this site for 3 weeks. In that period of time I have had 3 men attempt to scam me, all were fake profiles which I figured out with doing some due diligence, and 2 men wanted only kinky sex. What is wrong with you people. I reported all the issues to Match, but doubt they did anything. They won't tell you. Beware if you are thinking of going on Match. You may have better luck at the bar, at least you can see their real face and turn and run!

I signed up for the site with some encouragement from some friends that maybe the free dating sites are hard to meet someone because the people aren't as serious. So I said ok I'll try a paid one. I landed on Match because I trusted the commercials. I was sent an offer for %50 off. Good thing that's all I had to pay. I made my profile and started finding women that matched with me. I had a few matches within the first few hours. I sent EVERY woman that "liked" my profile. No replies. I tweaked my profile and kept looking and messaging people.

I have not gone on one date from this site. It’s a rip off. They show you people you cross paths with. There is no way in hell you will ever meet that person. The commercial is a lie. I would cancel if I could get a refund. They send you a profile that someone is interested in you then when you go there the profile is not there. How do they get away with this scam?

I used this site over a decade ago and surprisingly it's much worse now than it was back then. The navigation tools, both technical and algorithmic, seem far worse now and are definitively inferior to other dating websites. Match also impedes any real attempt at a free trial which makes the MO appear to be a "money grab" (as someone described it). It's unfortunate that, with all the tools, expertise and funds at their disposal, they have not developed a more effective, aesthetically attractive and navigable website that serves an increasingly popular method of romantic connection.

I have been on the site for nearly 8 months. Wrote full profile, pictures. Educated and look good. Was perplexed that I never got more than one response to a question and didn't hear anything from most. Match runs all their promotions and "premiums this and that" to boost their database. I finally went into detail with a representative tonight about what I long suspected. They said they don't divulge who they’re paying and non paying customers/subscribers are on the site??? Essentially, you see all these people out there that appear to be available and trust me, very few are.

Dear potential customer, this site has been a disaster from the moment I googled it. There has not been one thing that has gone right. I was told I was being given a seven (7) day free trial but after a couple of hours, I was blocked and told to contact customer service. This experience has been one disaster after another and a total waste of time. When I contacted customer service they said the trial doesn't work anymore (after a few hours) and that the only way I could use the site was to pay. I could no longer (after a few hours) check it out to see if I like it. I keep being told that I can log in but I cannot. As the rather lengthy form does take time to complete and ends up being useless, it is counterproductive to bother completing it.

First and foremost, I tried emailing Match.com to let them know that I needed them to contact me because I was a victim of a scammer on their website! No response!!! Women!! Please be aware that I was scammed and robbed of $28,000 because I was gullible to what was happening to me. DO NOT Give anyone money if they ask you or even iTunes cards. I had no idea that you can purchase a card and they can deplete funds. I’m embarrassed and ashamed of how naive I was to believing a lot of lies! I think that Match needs to have better security.

I have never seen such a disappointing, dishonest and money grabbing site in all my life. You call yourself Match... well you don’t Match people. I have asked for profiles with pictures only. Over my 3 months, I’ve had too many profiles that didn’t have photos. You stopped sending these to me when I wrote to complain. I asked for people between 58 and 68. You’ve sent me so many profiles of men ranging between the ages of 50 to 58. You’ve sent me Matches of men who are looking for women between 40 and 55 years old. Not only are you dishonest to me but also dishonest to men. I’m 65 yrs old. Can you not do the math. Now how is that a Match for me. You said that you have over 100 000 members on Match. Why is it that YOU decide how many matches or should I say fictions matches I see in a week.

The website is a total mess and the interface is very poor. I've been on a less popular sites that aren't big funded & mainstream like Match that have easier to use mechanics (mechanics that won't make the site terminate you over an accidental edit). I kept getting the same old people and same matches. I joined just out of curiosity because I wanted to profile browse (had the account for at least a week). I had to make a profile to do that so I decided might as well give this a try to see if I can find someone. I got lots of views and likes. Even messages but you have no way of replying back to these messages men send you UNLESS they themselves buy a separate package ($10 or so) that allows people they message to be able to respond back FREE regardless of membership status.

Updated on 01/31/2019: For many weeks leading up to the end-date of my account, I received the daily 'new matches' email. The overwhelming majority of the 'matches' were recycled profiles from prior 'new match' emails. I only had the occasional notification of my profile being viewed and rarely had a "like" message from another profile. This is due to the fact that the majority of profiles are inactive (at some point they were a paying member, or they signed up for a free weekend, etc).

I signed up with a discount offer. A few years ago I had signed up and had no problem finding the link to deactivate auto renewal. Not this time! Good luck figuring out the link to click - accounts didn't work, and I think I clicked auto sign in instead of deactivating renewal. Asked PayPal for help and they refused. Bad deal.

I was on Match for 15 days. My membership was for three months. I deleted my account after going on three dates with three men. The men (I encountered) on Match are looking for hook ups. This site makes you feel dirty to be on it. Most of the men that contacted me misrepresented themselves. Match needs to verify age by asking for social security numbers of prospective members. I want to strongly warn women about how predatory this site is. No matter how conservative your photos are many of the members only want one thing. Men on Match always want you to give them your phone number and get off the Match platform. Once they have your number they are a completely different person.

In April of this year (2018), I paid for a 6 month subscription to Match.com. The terms say that if you don’t cancel before the 6 months are up, that you will be charged that amount again when it is time to renew. Before that time was up, I tried signing into my account to cancel my subscription but the email and password I always used all of a sudden wouldn’t work. I clicked to reset my password but the reset email never showed up. I went to my local bank and paid for a “stop transaction” on my account to block the name that Match used to take the money out under back in April however, when the day came to renew, they took the money out of my account under a different name which still screwed me out of my money. I contacted Match using their customer service email and phone number. Emailed them twice and never heard back.

Awful experience. They are just interested in taking your money and will say whatever they like. They have something called shuffle which I innocently tried. It comes up with a photo and age and you have to say yes or no to liking them. I'm polite and don't like to say that I don't like someone, particularly when I haven't seen any details of them. I was horrified to find them all in my favourites box! When I googled, it showed me how to remove them but when I tried, it wouldn't work so I called Match and they told me that they were aware of the problem and were working on it. I called 2 months later only to be told that I had been given the wrong information and that they have removed that feature. I also had very inappropriate messages from some men. If you are looking for a quality man ladies, be very careful here! Will never use Match again.

When you email people that you are interested in around your age group with common interests along with the features that they want, no one ever responds to your email. This is a total waste of my precious time. There is a reason people join the on line dating because they have a hard time meeting others. People don't review your profile as in a case with me, I was finally going to meet some one for coffee, then they flaked off the day before because of religion. I'm open to meeting new and different people. Have not meet one person in person, people say they are interested in you, you respond to them and never hear back. Will never use this site again.

Please do not subscribe to this dating site. We are in for a ride and wasted. Out of 100 profile 99 are scammers. Most ** or beggars in there claimed to be their ethnic group end up with me talking to a ** on the pretense to be Chinese and etc. What I will do is continue to string along with these scammers to kill my insomnia. Take heart friends!

This website is a total rip off. They fail to deliver on their guarantee and when you deactivate your account to avoid recurring charges they also renege on their "I met someone guarantee." Don't spend your hard earned money on this fantasy website.

The following is what I wrote them. You can copy and paste to comment on their site. I sent them this same message several times. "I would like to bring these next questions to your attention. Why are profiles with no photos shown to me when I specifically checked “ONLY matches that have photos”? I am constantly shown profiles that have no pictures. I’m beginning to think that you invent those profiles to give false hope. Would you respond to someone who sends you a like, email, or fave without a picture? I didn’t think so. Very frustrating! Also, why is it that I’m spoonfed profiles at a time? Shouldn’t I be able to see as many profiles as I wish? I find it very suspicious and dishonest on your part of not showing true Profiles of real people with photos."

The majority of profiles are inactive members then they want to charge you extra money just to see if your messages were ever read. They need to delete inactive members or at least hide them if they cannot message back. I would not recommend this site at all. It's a rip off.

Match.com also renewed my membership without my consent. I did delete my hidden profile, only to be told I would stay on their database for quite a while. They keep saying they want to help and reimbursed my money, but it's the same sad story that I must log in. How can a person log in when I deleted. It goes back to that problem of staying in their database. I feel for all those people who are honest and caring, who are genuine. I just wish we that have had problems should get closer to bring Match.com down, even when living in different countries. There are ways. I read that Match.com are not accredited with Consumeraffairs.com. I feel the sentence I just wrote says it all.

This company is predatory in the sense that they make promises that they cannot keep and once you have paid for a membership, consider your money lost. The algorithms they use do not even find common matches. It only matches what you has selected as preferences, but ignores those things that you list as not acceptable. Also, if you are looking for a match local, forget it. You can set the range for your zip code to 10 miles and you still get matches several hundred miles away. In fact, it is probably a less than 10% chance that you would see 30 postings and more than 3 or 4 are local. I would have not given any stars, but that is not an option. Save your money and buy a nice dinner.

This company is a fraud. I was hacked and instead of helping me they cancelled me and threatened me with legal action. I was angry and I let them have it because they doubted my story. My cc was accessed through their system. This is is not a safe site!

Months after meeting my wife on Match, we went back to look at my profile online. My profile had been taken over with the pictures changed. Many e-mails were being sent and received, which can only be done with membership, which I no longer had. It was pretty obvious that Match was using my fake account to hook members. I knew this was a practice, as any time I cancelled my membership, I got a flood of e-mails that required a membership to read. Fast forward to no longer with my wife. I tried to get my profile back, explaining what had happened, and was told that I couldn't have my account back.

Shiesters, they take your Money and cancel your account, I had to call my credit card company to fight it. When you call customer service they tell you they will email you in 48 hours, I’m a good person and I work hard for my money. They did this twice. Do not waste your money. This site should be shut down, ABC gave them an F. Check the reviews yourself. Shame on you, I don’t know how they get away with closing people's account for no reason. I'm going to contact the Attorney General.
