Turned my eyes on eharmony this month and cant deny its a good one. It takes FOREVER to join as they have loads of questions. I would say if you compare it to another company like wejustfit.com then eharmony takes ten times longer to join. But the hope is that the questions will help me find someone who is right for me so lets see. Def a lot of people showing up in searches and had a few chats which is a good sign but undecided for now if its my new number 1.

I tried to cancel a two year subscription deal within 10 days but they will not return any part of the money although they will gladly stop the account and keep all your money.
This site is ridiculous. I get matches and have even communicate with a couple but this is nothing but a money making scheme where they are MUCH more concerned with revenue than finding matches for people.

This is just my opinion and experience and please take my advice make the initial trial as short as possible, use AMEX and instruct them not to accept any addional charges from e-harmony to insure they do not just keep billing you

BTW I tried to get AMEX to intervene but they said the charge was legit and the rep told me she had personally work several complaints about e-harmony charging without authorization

To further show what they are all about and HW they rip you off, they have this thing called "IVD Verified" which will cost an additional $5.95 a month. Here is the thing. See what you have to do t cancel the monthly bill for THAT:

Yes deliver a mail notice or a telegraph. Now correct me if I am wrong but this is an online dating service that takes money online but makes you use snail mail or telegraph to cancel this.
Please take my advice and avoid these guys. They are thieves

I was starting to think the whole online dating process was almost hopeless. And incredibly high percentage of the women I met did not look very much like their photos and you will find a few lunatics too. Plus it is frustrating that on most sites you are getting almost nowhere. There are only a few dating sites which are better than average (eHarmony and Mingle2day were the two best dating sites I have used) but if you get easily fustrated and impatient don't uns ANY dating site. It takes patience.

I REALL HOPE THAT SOMEONE SUES EHARMONY IN A CLASS ACTION LAWSUIT SO THAT WE ALL CAN GET OUR MONEY BACK. I JUST WENT TO THE "PLUS ONE" ON MY ACCOUNT AND IT WAS LITERALLY THE SAME GUY WITH A DIFFERENT NAME AND LOCATION. PUC AFTER PUC IT WAS THE SAME GUY WITH A DIFFERENT NAME AND LOCATION. THIS SCAMMING OLD BASTARD HAS MADE MILLIONS LYING TO PEOPLE WHO WANT TO MEET SOMEONE. I WOULD NOT BE SURPRISED IF SOME OF THESE PEOPLE DON'T WIRK FOR EHARMONY OR THEY ARE STEALING PICTURES OFF THE INTERNET AND CREATING FAKE PROFILES. THIS IS WHY NO ONE EVER RESPONDS TO YOUR PROFILE BECAUSE THESE PEOPLE DON'T EXHIST! THIS IS ONE OF THE BIGGEST SCAMS IN HISTORY. LET'S SUE HIS $#*!!

To be honest I'm lost among so many people. And no one interested me.
But they have rather good service.

EHarmony is obviously one of the biggest dating sites so I decided to give it a try. I joined eHarmony three months ago and I was positively surprised. I got in contact with many nice women and arranged a few dates. I don't understand any of the negative reviews. It is a quality dating site. Only reason I left it was because I tried out a few other dating sites liked Mingle2day which I personally liked a little more. I'd rate eHarmony 4 out of 5.

I am 71 years old and met my wife when I was 65. It took almost two years to find each other but worth the effort. We're a perfect match and we've never been happier. While I would agree that some of my matches left me wondering what criteria were used; all of these sites rely on user honesty. I'm sure that lack of self esteem and loneliness can contribute to misrepresentation. Regardless of site, be patient; the person who is looking for you may be tomorrow's match. Suggestion: If possible, expand your geographic range. What might seem impossible in theory may become very possible for the right person; I'm from Maryland and my wife was from Ohio. Update: sixth anniversary; never been happier

Having already given a review of eHarmony I feel compelled to further comment as an active member on the site. I have taken the trouble to experiment with the ways it operates and the sheer dishonesty of its claims. Narcissism and greed go hand in hand and eHarmony is a prime example, non existent profiles, blatant ignorance and disregard for members requirements, condescending and disrespectful feedback from brainwashed operators, polite but sadly mislead, I could cancel my contract but I will see it through simply to study the extent of this company's brutal exploitation of people's vulnerability against the site's complete lack of conscience... Christianity indeed!

I find it insulting that eHarmony lists it's "Black Dating", "Asian Dating", "Christian Dating", "Jewish Dating", "Senior Dating", "Hispanic Dating" sections... but for gays, we're herded away to some new, separate, segregated section called "Compatible Partners"? I already have a business partner. I'm looking for a HUSBAND.
Reminds me of that South Park episode on Marriage Equality where "us gays" were told we couldn't get married, but we could get a special, legal title to call each other "Butt Buddies". Not surprised, since this company is run by conservative christians. They thought by FINALLY adding a separate, segregated site for gay people it would smooth over the fact that they are bigot owned and operated. IT DID NOT WORK. Their "Pitiful Partners" gay site was AWFUL and I immediately cancelled. They now have the lowest possible grade of all the online dating websites, and their customers are leaving by the thousands.
Bigots. Go figure.

I signed up for 6 month. Since the service was pretty dead, and I didn't think it was me, I tried OKCupid after a month and found OKCupid was much more active. Once I started dating exclusively someone I found through OKCupid, I tried to close my accounts.
I had no problem suspending my OK Cupid membership; however, eHarmony would not let me suspend nor stop my membership, so it ran its inactive course for 6 month. I suppose that makes it look like they have more active daters than they actually have, since probably most people move on like I did.

Like everyone else on this forum, I too feel ripped off. I did not have any real expectations that I would meet anyone on Eharmony, but after about a month on this site, it was obvious that it was not as advertised. I'll tell you why. The first couple of weeks I got a reply from almost every match I responded to. Then, people I had an ongoing conversation with, would suddenly stop responding, so I started including an email link from the start. Come to find out, eharmony would stop sending email replies after the first couple conversations. Then I started getting reply's 2 and 3 days late, and eventually they stopped coming all together. I realized that the closer I came to my renewal date, the more funny things got. When I finally let them know I would not be renewing my membership (with 3 weeks left on my contract), I never received another match or a reply. To many coincident for it to be a mistake, and after reading these posts I have no doubt that it is by design.
