Reviews of eHarmony

I am a 31 year old, educated, attractive white single mom of a 3 year old boy ,with a stable career and no serious baggage . I am a newcomer as well. I've been on eharmony for several months, had very nice dates,I am pretty picky and is interested to date fit,educated and financially stable guys of my age or a bit older from my area. As I said,I met really nice people,I didn't meet "the one" yet but I am pretty positive that it will happen. I signed up for the initial subscription of 3 months and paid full price and then I wanted to cancel because I liked the service but , it was too expensive for me. Eharmony started to send me very good renew rates, like $ 10 per month for 6 months etc , so I stayed. I only met real,successful guys,the chemistry was not always there, some lied about their age or pics as on every dating site, others were not serious enough, a couple of great guys I liked didn't see me as " the one" for them. I don't know, why other users had such negative experience, I cannot complain so far and yes you can be picky there ;), I did some initial "editions" thru emails,phones etc and only met maybe 3-4 guys a month,it doens't sound much but again the quality was amazing.I could google the majority of them on the internet and found them on LiknedIn or their own business sites, I verified their identities thru this. They were all willing to come to my area to meet me and met me at the restaurant I chose and all of them paid for drinks/lunch or dinner for me, really nice guys overall. So if you are smart,fun,attractive, positive, people will want to meet you.
Well, I had some bad experience when guys closed communication with no reason or just stopped answering my emails or we had an amazing first date and they will txt/email me after asking for the seocnd date, their initiative and then suddenly disappear with no reason but it's life, I didn't take in personally, as there are many other good guys for me ;) .The best of luck to all of you, especially, you, girls! My tip is to ask questions about his past,relationships,career, his family, google him ;),see how generous and kind he is, to ask when and where was his last vacation, what's his fave restaurant etc, to see if you match ,don't afraid to be assertive in dating!

Waste of money, I stopped and went back with them and all they did was take my money!!

There is no where on the site with a phone number.

Companies like this is why America is in the shape it's in today, All is they want is money. They do not care about us, thier customers!!

Shame on them!!

DO NOT JOIN, THEY LIE IN THIER ADVERTISING AND DO NOTHING FOR YOU

ATTENTION! Do not use eHarmony dating website. It is a huge scam and will waste your money. I highly advise you to NOT fall for this website. The service might as well be run by thieves. They charge you high prices for a service that can be done on a variety of other websites for much less. On their commercials they claim all of this "personality profile" and "Compatibility" matching, but all it really does is match you with similar profile interest. For the lack of a better word it uses a "Google" type program to search for your matches. Please do not waste your money and supply these frauds with money. The website should be taken down but unfortunately that is not possible. I hope everyone reads this and takes it seriously.

Honestly, it really makes you wonder if eharmony and match are run by nigerians...Both are nothing but scams and should be shut down. I think there are better...and safer...ways to meet people. These sites obviously have no concern about members.

I paid alot of cash out for this site. I didnt even talk to anyone because they kept saying that there was no matches for me as well. It seemed like a waste of time for me and I paid out that money for nothing. I got more responces from a free site. The ones you have to pay mostly are a rip off.

It was utter crap for me. All my matches were nothing to match me. I am an artist and musicians, and i only got close minded stiff guys. Also I'm sorry, but the communication was NOT natural. You got to paint a perfect picture because you could edit everyting you said. Guys were so much better sounding on the web. The actually good looking ones were fake profiles , which e-harmony does to make it look like they have found more matches for you, when really, it makes you feel more rejected. One guy was EXTREMLY creepy, wated to crash a college party with me after our date?! WFT what 26 year old does taht?? and grabbed my thigh. I made him drop me off in a public place and then later he texted me obscene things and went crazy when i told him i no longer wanted to see him. I also dont think the men read your profiles AT ALL they just look at your pic. I was ready to go out with a guy who was considerably older then the day of our date, he asked if i liked a man in a suit. I said "sure, do you like women with tatoos?" He said " No, I like my women to look like women, see ya. " I wrote in bold type in my profile that i had HALF SLEEVE TATTOOS! I didnt want to mislead anyone. The guys were WAY off base. I joined for the reason everyone else did. I was a work aholic and i didnt want to meet anyone in a bar, and i consider myself different(artist/musician) and wanted that "emotional connection". Which doesnt happen in text AND in real life..a year later, i met my soulmate at work. You really cant look for love.
However my cousin got married off eharmony. But her husband (whom i adore!) was a rarity. he has handycap which i believe is why he was on there, so people could see past it. He has a severe limp. But he is easy on the eyes, smart, nerdy, sweet, pretty normal,and is PERFECT for my cousin. She is a shy photographer that spends a lot of time at home. So i guess only certain people can find matches, or its just like the real world.. a matter of chance.

If I could give eharmony a negative star I would. I signed on at the cheapest rate of $130. They sent me 7 matches. 4 definetely not-3 well, don't think so. I widened my search at the expense of compromising what I am looking for and have no matches.
I was looking someone my age, who looks after themself, and lives close and I get fat , old guys that live 100 miles away. No thanks!

Scammers, lots of scammers on Eharmorny.

A majority of profiles are fake.

IF MONEY IS ASKED AND/OF HAS NIGERIA IN IT, IT IS A SCAM.

NIGERIA IS FULL OF SCUMBAGS, LIARS AND LOSERS.

LET THEM DIE WHERE THEY ARE.

THE COUNTRY IS RANKED AT THE VERY BOTTOM TO ZIMBABWE.

ZIMBABWE WHICH I VISITED MANY TIMES IS FAR BETTER THAN NIGERIA.

THERE IS NOTHING WORSE IN THIS WORLD THAN NIGERIANS WHEREVER THEY ARE.

If i could give it ZERO stars, I would. I joined eharmony back in 2007. Luckily, i did not have the money/credit card nightmares I've read about from other reviewers in the past when they try to cancel membership, but i still thought it was a waste of good money.
When I was a member, I got VERY few matches. There was even an option to have the system "search" for more matches, but it always came up dry.
I hated the way you could not tell if you were being matched with a subscriber or not, since most of the time it would be MONTHS before i got return communication, assumably because the "free communication" period was over. Also, very FEW of my my matches were local, OR anything close to what i was looking for in a match. But then again, i got ignored plenty too! :-(
Now, that said, AFTER i QUIT the site, SUDDENLY i was geting 4, 5, 6 matches A DAY!!!! HUH?!?!?!? where on earth were these matches before when i was shelling out $19-$29 a month???
I still don't like the fact that, after many, many surveys sent by them, that the STILL dont allow you to see pictures of the matches unless you 'subscribe"
It is a rip off. what is ithe point in the "no picture" thing?? you can lie without a picture just as well as you can without. many folks still post those scanned HS yearbook photos! LOL
Don't waste your money. I think match.com is better (not much, but still better)
