“A cesspool of scammers”

Susan L.
1/4/24

I had a one-year subscription to eharmony, and in that time received about 10 matches, half of which were scammers, looking for money or online sex. I reported everyone of them and the selection never got better. I learned not to trust anyone on this site. Do not join. There is no screening at the eharmony site and there are many many bad actors on the app.

Hello, I signed thinking it's a one month plan and cancelled it believing I'm all set. Then out of no where I received notices that I still owe over $148 for 6 month plan. And I was sent to collections to my shock. I just setup to pay off the balance and I can't even use the site anymore. They're scammers and I wish I can sue them!

Tip for consumers:
Please. Stay away from E-Harmony. They will scam you out of your money!

Horrible company. The app is old, poorly structured and ended up with zero dates. That's not even the worst part, I closed my account and they tried to bill me over $500 for the renewal I didn't approve. And when I didn't pay they sent me threatening emails saying they are going to send it to collections. Horrible company, will never recommend.

There were only like 20 guys in my area on eharmony, 19 of which were not my type at all. I messaged customer service asking for a cancellation because of the quality and quantity of matches and they refused plus told me I was stuck on the hook for 3 months at$85 a month. Ridiculously expensive and not even an inkling of help to get me any closer to finding someone who I'd like.

Eharmony advertised deal for $12.95/month for first 3 months and then normal $25.90/month. However, they charged me $139 and then wanted more. I disputed it but they put it in collection and my final damage ended up being over $550. Absolute false advertising and bait-and-switch.

Way too expensive with an awful cancellation policy. They make you pay an excessive amount to use the site and give you horrible options where you are locked in having to pay for unused months of service that you don't even want to use. Contacted customer service and they refuse to give you a refund even if you want to delete your account.

I subscribed to eharmony. The site is not a good dating site. The bank account I gave eharmony for billing was subsequently closed. When the renewal was not paid, eharmony cut off the service to me. Then, eharmony turned me over to collections for almost a thousand dollars they say i owe under the contract even though they cut off the service. What a scam.

Barely any men online for matches. The ones that are look like something out of the walking dead. Now for almost a month I have no been able to log in and the daiting site has done nothing about it. For 25 pound a month I am being robbed. But it doesn't matter as the site is awful. Please single men or woman stay well clear it's dodgy as hell saying that so are the men usually on these sites

Tip for consumers:
Just awful site and no communication
I can not log in for ages and they have done nothing to solve the problem.
They are only concerned about taking your money that's it.
The men on the site look awful the very few that are in the site .

Their claims are totally baseless. They are only out for your money and don't have any clear adherence to your boundaries for preferences. No quality matches Even the deadlines for your subscription are not met. They charged me long after. Total scam

Tip for consumers:
They claim there’s a refund policy but it’s bogus

Shun this 'service' that has had huge numbers of negative reviews on line! Sorry to say that perception is not reality in the case of this dating service. All the promotion on line is self-serving and very strictly limited as to what is available to prospective members UNTIL THEY SIGN A $$$ CONTRACT!. In most states there is no 'cooling off period' to allow for cancellation if misrepresentation no matter how flagrant that is present...as in Idaho. Matches are NOT based on my priorities that I carefully put together. After paying one learns furthermore, many of the 'prospective recommended' individuals have no photos making it impossible to decide if it is worth following up on. The expensive and 'very long lasting memberships' are clearly designed to maximize their cash profit at EHarmony with no way to cancel after it is found to be a worthless 'service'. It appears that their service is designed to take advantage of lonely people going through tough episodes of divorce, spousal death, or just separation. Also I have tried to revise and narrow down with filters to no avail. After 3 days of this nonsense I am going to challenge my bill with my credit card company as this service appears to border on fraudulent behavior. A non-cancellation policy based on deliberate misrepresentation or especially outright fraud is non-enforceable according to court findings.

Tip for consumers:
I have to believe that their own reviews are fictitious since the reviews I've read in online review sources are uniformly horrible.

Products used:
Never used the service as it seemed bogus, of no help to me at all!

After a lengthy review process they ask you to sign up at a ridulous monthly rate and then charge six months minimum. I was cross-eyed after the review process and didn't pay attention. In two minutes of "joining" I wanted out. No way to filter for Asian women which I specifically wanted. I'm new at dating websites.

I tried a trial over a year ago and just got charged $90 without warning... Apparently the trial I did automatically signs me up for new memberships. Customer care doesn't care and is ignorant to my complaint, can't talk to a human neither. Boooooo!

Tip for consumers:
They told me it's in the policy and that I signed up for it. I did not sign up for anything and now they want $400 with $90/mo payments....

They blur the picture before you sign. Brag about their success ratios. All are tricks to deceive you and squeeze money out of you. Only a few women are using this app, so I almost had no dates there over a course of 4 month. This is while in other apps I have several a week even if I use the free version. I asked them to return my money back as they provided no service and they refused.

I signed up for what I thought was a month, only to be billed over $200. Read the fine print. It is impossible to call them so I left an email explains my plight and they said no refunds. I am attractive, thin and realistic. I have had very little activity and believe there are a lot of bots there as literally no one responds. It's a scary place. I don't recommend it at all.

They make it as hard as they can to communicate about your account with them, but have no problem holding YOU accountable (no refunds) for automatic renewals! Phone numbers they give you to communicate with them are bogus and won't even go through when you call to talk to them. DO NOT give them your credit card number!

Tip for consumers:
I’ve read lots of reviews on eHarmony from people that have experienced the same things I have, and it’s very unfortunate that a business like this continues to get away with this. I tried blocking them from charging against my credit card in the future, but have to change my number to do that. Very unsettling when you can’t trust a business that is SUPPOSED to be a trusted business!

If you want to throw your money away….Don't sign a contract. They will not let you out and you lose money….This is worse than any free site. I had a six-month subscription to eHarmony, and in that time received about 20 matches, not one responded and the ones that did were scammers. I thought by the reputation eHarmony has and the price you pay would be a great site to join. I reported to eHarmony and all I get is a response that they removed the profile and not to communicate with member. I learned not to trust anyone on this site. Do not join. There is no screening at the eHarmony site that they say they do.

Tip for consumers:
Have asked for a refund or to stop and no results from eHarmony.

EHarmony is a great dating site for anyone who is serious about finding a long-term partner. EHarmony uses a scientific approach to match you with compatible singles who share your goals and interests. I found my perfect match on eHarmony and we are now happily married.

EHarmony is the best marketed / worst product I have experienced. Having a minimum search range of 20km (2 hours commute one way!) is plainly impractical.

I spent 1 hour on the site, found six people near me or matching my life style (I don't drink alcohol), immediately requested a refund within 14 days.

EHarmony then charge me £65 for a nonsense psych evaluation. Do yourself a favour use Hinge, Bumble, Coffee Meets Bagel, OKCupid or Plenty of Fish

The "chemistry" matching is a joke. I've yet
To find ANYONE that has similar interests or ideals. I don't drink alcohol and there is no criteria to weed that out so I continue I have to address if after matching/chatting. I am more "left" leaning and I have been matched twice with almost offensive right-wing nuts. The caliber of men I've come across is not impressive. AND they don't give you an option to do a month so they lock you in to bleed you dry! DON'T DO IT!

Tip for consumers:
Don’t do it! They lock you in to a 6-month membership before even seeing the sight so when you realize it’s total and utter crap, there’s no way to get out!

After trying to delete this dating app I was told I could not delete it but didn't know about the auto renewal. Was automatically charged $805 on my credit card even though I tried to delete it and haven't used it in months.

If you ask me this is nothing short of a scam plus the site itself sucks. I highly recommend people save there money and use bumble instead. Bumble has a way better setup with more users.

Hope this was helpful and will deter people from ever using eharmony.

Tip for consumers:
Don’t use this site at all
