First question, what are you passionate about. I have a paragraph. The ones that I am matched to, barely a complete sentence. One was most passionate about "stuff". Not many have taken the questionnaire, which make me question how do they do the compatibility?
Of those, many of which are way outside my commute range. (If you live in a metropolitan area, you will understand that 20 miles in a straight line is not 20 miles)
The one person I met on this go around, was definitely outside of what I was looking for.
I also did the 3 month stuck with it, to find that in the third month, no contacts, smiles or anything. For over $200, I may have had greater expectation.

I just signed up for eHarmony this month and I have two more months until my membership expires. I will NOT sign up again. The main reason is because of the lack of responses from women I have messaged. From what I have seen, if a woman doesn't respond it is very likely that they have not been active on the site. So, I the unsuspecting user thinks that various profiles are active, when in reality they are not. This site is very much a scam, because the developers of eHarmony could easily change this feature to show which users have been active. However, if they change that feature, then that may mean less money for the company. Once users find out who isn't active, they won't waste their time or money. The scheme is quite unfortunate, because it is built on the hope of people finding the love of their life. I would never recommend eHarmony. Not only is the price not worth it, but the site itself could have been created with the user in mind. I have only received messages from 4 women. 3 out of 4 disappeared on me. It didn't quite work out with one woman I messaged due to a disagreement about personal beliefs, but that aside, the message ratio has been quite low. I have received smiles from women I wasn't interested in, and a few looks. Other than that, this site is complete junk! Don't waste your time or money with this.

I joined in January and it has been a month. Spend your money else where. They pick the matches and they are not even compatible to what you want. Please do not waste your time or money here. You will have better luck on Match.com

These folks are scam artist with "outs" to not pay refunds. Their refund "out" is that you purchase app and membership with iTunes or android equivalent and they refer you to them and say they have no control over them charging you. Their app, their site, their matches, and their members suck and are either not real or not literally 1 in a 200, unattractive-old-obese. Don't give these scammers give your money or time. I usually never review stuff, I felt highly moved to save people money to the best of my ability. I spent 2 of my 12 months subscription (it was like $150 or so) putting forth lots of effort and time to reach out to over 500 women, and I have replies from like 25,2-3 of which WERE NOT 10+ years older, very unattractive, and/or morbidly obese. I have reached out to them for a refund over 4 times explaining my plight. I told them about lack of matches, told them I was unsatisfied, that I wanted to stop my year purchase and by refunded remainder of year--they refused, They are cowardly garbage. Not to be used, not to be spoken well of, to be avoided.

So I mark on my profile "Christian" and I'm sent more "spiritual not religious" as compatible. Are you serious? Worshipping the devil can be spiritual or witch craft also. I'm paired up with guys 15 younger or 20 years older. What a joke. And I do not smoke so don't give me guys that do. Really. I'm not traveling more miles then I put in my profile but too many too far away. Wished I would have read the reviews before signing up.

I have been on a few dating websites. I like trying different ones because you meet more people.
I signed up for the year subscription because I have had pretty good experiences on different websites as far as meeting people but have not found nothing serious.

I was on eharmony for a month. I had 4 smiles of which 3 looked like they could be my grandfather. One looked in my age range so I smiled back but never even said high.

I gave it 1 month which is a reasonable time frame to see how it will go. Then I contacted customer service to cancel my subscription. First I got an automated reply saying give it 2 weeks. I responded telling they to read my email. Then I got a response saying that if I'm not satisfied I can respond with specialist in the subject line. So I did.
I get a set response saying I waited to long. I would have had to cancel in the 3 day time frame.

This was the worst dating site experience I have had.

Join eHarmony and received 33 matches; however not one of them was current. To find out if they are current, they will have a dot behind their name. How do you make a match when there is no one available on the site. Why pay a monthly fee when they have no current matches for you. Was very disappointed because I thought this was the premier site and was paying a premium membership fee. On the plus side... called and was given a full refund of my membership.

I joined eharmony about a year ago. There were a few interests both on my part, and on guys. But nothing came of it. After answering all those questions, not one date. I started to believe it was me. Then I signed up on another dating site that is free. I got so many messages, flirts and intetests. I think eharmony is blocking their members from connecting so they can make more money. Think about it, if you find love in a week, you will unsubscribe and they won't have as many members at once. I'm looking elsewhere. This was so disappointing! Please don't waste your money with any dating sites. Remember; it's a business and their first goal is to get our money

Imagine this. You are new to online dating. You've heard a lot of good things about Eharmony. You are a Christian and you trust Eharmony because of its founder, not realizing that the business has been bought and sold several times over the years. You get your first set of matches and you fall head over heals in love with a picture and great profile. You send out a smile, first point if contact (or so you think) and you hope for a reciprocal smile. After all, if she doesn't smile back, she's probably not interested, right? You wait a few days and no smile, so you think, she wants a message from you and not just a smile, she wants to know you're serious, so you send her a cute message trying to get her attention, but nothing, no smile back, no reply, no nothing, but maybe she's playing hard to get, so you keep trying week after week. Can't get her out of your head. Of course there are others, and you move on, but you don't block her, because just maybe she will eventually respond. AND THEN, AFTER SEVERAL MONTHS, you discover by, sheer accident, that if a person subscribes to Eharmony and then doesn't renew, EHARMONY CONTINUES TO PUT THEM OUT AS A POTENTIAL MATCH, and the unsuspecting PAID SUBSCRIBER, HAS NO CLUE, THAT THE PERSON THEY HAVE BEEN TRYING TO COURT, HAS NO IDEA THAT YOU EVEN EXIST!... THIS IS TOTAL CRAP!
I know this for a FACT. I was matched to another person, who had quit using Eharmony over a year previously, but was clever enough to word in their profile a riddle that revealed a email address that I figured out and used to make contact with them outside of Eharmony. Putting 2 and 2 together, I figured out that my heartthrob, I had been seeking out, was in the same no longer subscribed situation. TALK ABOUT FRUSTRATION. I am so pissed with Eharmony, and they admit they continue to promote non subscribers. TALK ABOUT BAIT AND SWITCH!

Signed up for 3 months, matches initially within 50 mile radius, but most are 200+ miles away.
Subscription finished on sat, but I'm still getting matches & smiles - yet I can't reply to messages without paying again -I closed down my account fully as I don't want to waste these gents time & I know realise perhaps most of the matches I saw were "not active".
I did connect with one lovely man who I chatted on Skype with but it didn't move on
Save your money

I signed up for a 6 month subscription period. After about a week, I noticed how all of the "matches" were much older than I had requested (I like older men, so there was already a bit of a stretch). These "matches" were also a great distance away from where I was located (I live close to Raleigh, NC). In an effort to investigate a little further, I decided to click on each match profile that appeared in my inbox to see if anyone would view my profile or respond to a message > I had absolutely no activity!

I found out that most of these matches were ghost accounts and called to try to cancel my subscription. Before calling to cancel, I went in and deleted everything in my profile so that they could not use it as another ghost profile to entice poor souls looking for love. I did have a good laugh when the representative mentioned that matches are more likely to respond if I had a picture (I had 10 before I deleted my profile). I was also informed that there was nothing they could do about a refund or cancellation because it was past the 3 day cancellation grace period. This 3 day period is built in to make you feel good about signing up, but it is really something to be cautious of. Please proceed with caution if you plan on joining! I would tell you to run the other way, but that is only my opinion!

Too many ghost accounts, very few active accounts, and way overpriced. Had the service for three months, met two women for a few dates each, out of 500 "matches". Talked with maybe 10 women in total.

It's just not worth it. I paid for a full subscription, and was completely disappointed by the lack of active accounts on the site. If eharmony can not find a way to clear out these old accounts or at least remove them from the matching list, then honestly, it's just a waste of time and money.

I thought paying for a subscription would limit me to only matches who are serious about finding a relationship. Eharmony failed in this regard.

Keep your money, and spend your time doing something else.

My account was hacked. It was taken over by a hacker who probably used a rainbow table to match my password hash. I was not notified by email that an account change was pending my email verification, it just happened. This is the weakest and worst user security policy I have EVER heard of. They do not work on Sundays so this hacker ran amok for 24 hours with me having to try and mitigate damage by messaging all my matches. Finally I got ahold of chat this morning and they could not help. Then at 2:30 I receive an email saying they had closed my account. Nothing they can do. Scorched earth for my account. So long Eharmony. This is the final straw. First you change your format and become just another expensive Tinder, and now this.
