I purchased a $42.91 Dunkin' Donuts gift card for $29.74. I went to load the gift card into my DD app, and got a message saying, "Card already registered." I emailed the company, and they responded saying their policy is that DD gift cards cannot be loaded into the app. Huh? Why not? Also, this immediately raised my suspicions, because if it's already registered, that means someone else has access to the card. Well, since there wasn't much I could do though, I went about using the actual gift card (well, email gift card). I successfully used it three times. On the 4th try, the cashier told me the card was deactivated. Well, well, well. So, someone else DID in fact have access to the gift card I was using. The only reason I'm not giving them only one star is because they did refund me the money (well, minus the amount I used). But I will certainly never trust, or use, this company again.

The first few days I signed up for Match, it seemed my profile got a decent amount of attention. I could see how many people viewed me, liked my profile, etc., and I was hopeful. I got some messages. I also sent out a decent amount of messages, and unfortunately, received no responses. I still pressed on. Then after a couple of weeks, I started noticing that the number of people who even just viewed my profile dropped significantly. Soon, it was almost none - maybe one or two every few days. I started thinking, are they not putting my profile out anymore? I found it hard to believe that no one was even just looking (not saying liking it, just viewing it). But, I told myself, maybe this just isn't meant for me, and no one is really interested (not trying to sound pitiful, just saying I stopped trying to blame Match). So I canceled my membership, however, since I had paid for three months, it was still active for another couple of weeks.

Then, literally on the day my account went inactive, I got six notifications through email that people "liked" my profile, messaged me, were interested in me. I tried to check, thinking maybe I had one more day... and sure enough, got a message saying my account was deactivated, and I would have to renew my subscription to see the messages. How convenient.
