 Waste
Reviewer: Anonymous 04-28-2007
This site is a waste. Horrible matches and jsut a waste of time |
 Good
Reviewer: Anonymous 09-04-2005
For me the site has been good. I have only been a member for about a week and a half and I am already in phone conversation with another member who lives close to me. I am hopeful! |
Great!!!
Reviewer: Anonymous 09-04-2005
All the time invested in the initial questionaire is worth it. If for nothing else, just to get to know myself.

Sorry I joined
Reviewer: Anonymous 09-01-2005
When I first signed up I had a few responses. This prompted me to extend my agreement for a year. Now, I am sorry! I've had very few matches as a 52 year old woman, whereas one of my male matches of 52 yrs received over 100 matches within 3 months. There must be many more women than men on this service with the eligible and prefered age range. The one person I would have been interested in actually turned out to be unavailable after going through the whole time consuming process which has made me question the whole on line dating experience. I wish I could break my agreement with eHarmony, but as it stands they are getting richer and I have not had a match for 2 months!

Don't waste your money!
Reviewer: Anonymous 08-09-2005
They only introduced me to two people. Both were mean old men. In fact, I found it interesting that they only sent me names when I was at a point where I'd have to send them money. The first time was just before I joined (which I really regret, believe me) and the second time was when my one-month membership was about to expire. At that point of course I had no intention of giving them any more of my hard-earned money.
Both of these old fellas were quite awful -- I'd be horrified to think that I had anything in common with either of them.

Just Doesn't Work.
Reviewer: Anonymous 08-09-2005
I have been a member of eHarmony for over a month. I didn't expect to get married, but thought I might at least have a date. Apparently there are only 6 men in the entire Dallas area with whom I am "compatible." Two of them are shorter than I am. Two of them have kids (I am 29. Maybe a family of my own would be nice someday). Two of them haven't responded to communication.
I am totally willing to admit there could be something wrong with me, but I tend to believe eHarmony just doesn't work. I feel scammed and cheated.

Waste of time & money.
Reviewer: Anonymous 08-05-2005
After multiple communications about my disatisfaction (primarliy about why no pictures? and why limited-age selection?) their responses were unsatisfactory and seemed canned. |
A Scam
Reviewer: Anonymous 08-04-2005
I got one worthwhile match (out of about 30 in a week) and we have emailed a couple times, but when I gave her my outside email to contact me, I haven't heard anything back from her. The other so-called matches weren't my style.

Sorry I signed up
Reviewer: Anonymous 07-30-2005
I have been on eharmony for over 6 months. Most of my "matches" are old and really don't have anything in common with me. Most of the men don't even have pictures, so I think maybe they are a scam. I joined eharmony because I thought it would be the site to weed out the wrong type of guy. But I have yet to actually meet someone in person. They don't really match you up based on common interests and compatibility. Take my advice, don't waste your money. I am just sorry I signed up for a whole year.

A Waste
Reviewer: Anonymous 07-26-2005
Poor service & poor matches in quality, quantity and responsiveness. I can't get them on the phone. Don't waste your money or your time.

Not a fan
Reviewer: Anonymous 07-18-2005
I think E harmony is way over-priced and their matching system is horrible. When I did get matched, none of the people were someone I would be compatible with. Often they had nothing in common with me. E harmony sucks! |
matching system is terrible
Reviewer: Anonymous 07-01-2005
Who programs these computers anyway? And it's overly maudlin and sappy with too much empahsis on all the "soulmate" BS.

Don't waste your time or money.
Reviewer: Anonymous 07-01-2005
As a 30-something professional, my time is often monopolized by a very demanding job. Hence I am just like most of you, as I don't have the time or energy to socialize my way through a myriad of bars looking for a compatible mate. eHarmony was a bigger waste of time and energy - I would rather have spent the $50 at a bar or throwing it out the window dollar by dollar... I agree with everyone else that this company is dancing on the edge of FRAUD. |
Not Good
Reviewer: Anonymous 05-31-2005
I did not have a positive experience with Eharmony. My own belief system includes not marrying a divorced individual. I have never been married. But E-harmony kept sending me all divorced individuals. When I wrote to let them know my opinion on this issue, they indicated they could not filter out divorced men and that I would just have to tell each man myself - how hurtful and unnecessary for both parties concerned. When it states you can match with someone like you, it definately didn't include a single/divorced issue.

Poor Quality Men
Reviewer: Anonymous 04-30-2005
The worst part of EHarmony is that the quality of the men I have been matched with has gotten even worse as time goes on. At the beginning there were a few real possibilities, but now nearly everyone I communicate with winds up being ADD, mentally unstable, and/or encumbered with enormous emotional baggage. |
It's a scam
Reviewer: Anonymous 04-13-2005
I signed up with them a few months and never got any matches until my membersip was getting ready to run out. Then I got a match almost every day with men I had absolutely nothing in common with or they lived too far away.

Just a bunch of hype
Reviewer: Anonymous 04-09-2005
EHarmony is really lousy. Lots of incomplete profiles are sent, and few really seem to connect.
They send matches that do not seem to fit my needs and they send matches that are up to five years older than I want to meet. They will not let me change the parameters of age on the upper side, so most of the matches that they send are 2 to 5 years older than I am. I have no intention of dating older women, and yet, they will not let you set the age limit for the upper age. I have tried various services...and Eharmony is the worst!!!! |
STAY AWAY !
Reviewer: Anonymous 04-04-2005
I specified that I did not want anyone older than 45, shorter than 6' & no school teachers or liberals. They matched me with old, short men, who are liberal schoolteachers!
I was also not happy that I was not allowed to see their photos, yet they could see mine. I am model quality, highly educated, and look 39. eHarmony is definitely a scam. And they don't send you any matches until you are near your expiration date.

a total waste of money and time....
Reviewer: Anonymous 03-18-2005
The women I was matched with live too far...the few I contacted only wanted to exchange emails....no one was interested in meeting in person.

Walk the other way
Reviewer: Anonymous 03-13-2005
Their customer service sucks, they are overpriced, and generally, the woman have "nice personalities" i.e. arf arf + 20 - 30 lbs overweight. I predict that they will be investigated by the feds...

Very disappointed!
Reviewer: Anonymous 03-11-2005
During the first two weeks, I received over 25 matches. After the third week into the sixth month, I received absolutely no matches. Out of the 25 matches I received, I responded to at least 10 and only received a reply from two; one of which I later found out was married! The only other match I responded to I did meet, but was not a good match for me at all.

Matching Is Haphazard
Reviewer: Anonymous 03-05-2005
During my 5 months as a member of Eharmony I never met a single person. It is really strange that contacts are closed before contacting someone. But the real problem is the way the site functions. There are all those back and forth questions before you can actually email your possible match. By the time you get around to emailing, you've already been forced to ask questions in a mechanical way so it feels very strange to try to strike up a "converstion." |
Waste of time and money.
Reviewer: Anonymous 03-02-2005
I had tons of matches but most never responded. That's because they match you with non-paying customers to try to entice them to sign up. My worst match was a man who asked if I "shaved my pussy". There is very little difference between eharmony and other services except that eharmony limits who you can talk to based on your personality and charges more.

Very happy!
Reviewer: Anonymous 02-18-2005
I had been on Eharmony off and on for approximately six months. During that time, I had hundreds of matches. I started open communication with at least fifty people, and met about a dozen, three of whom I dated for awhile. I have now been dating someone I met on eharmony for 4.5 months and I couldn't be happier with the results. As far as the other individuals I met and communicated with, they were primarily quality people. |
Scam!!!
Reviewer: Anonymous 02-04-2005
Scam Scam Scam Scam .. what else can I say? I have really never see a more pathetic match-making attempt. Anyone who really believes their "profile" is worth even a fraction of the time it must take to fill out, is probably going to do ok though. They cannot be too intelligent or at a minimum, they are very easily deceived. Which is good I guess - someone has to support the con artists. They're scamming you, if that's ok with you, then have a great time!

They Are Unethical
Reviewer: Anonymous 02-02-2005
I was extremely dissatisfied with Eharmony which I used for several months. I am 39, am NOT interested in men who are 54 years old. EHarmony will not allow you to lower this age. I listed my preference for men in my city but was given matches 400 miles away. The first month I was given about 4 matches and then nothing for the next 2 months. But the day before my account expired, I get a match. What a great marketing gimmick.
I will never use eHarmony services again. I feel they are unethical. A shame considering it is a Christian company. Very much for profit.

A bogus service
Reviewer: Anonymous 01-31-2005
I joined some time ago, used it for three months, and received 70 matches. Approximately 65 of those matches never responded to my attempt to communicate, so I closed them out. The remaining five ultimately closed me out, or I closed them out. |
Success!
Reviewer: Anonymous 01-30-2005
My daughter and her husband met through eHarmony in September of 2003. They ‘clicked’ immediately, becoming officially engaged within just a few months. The wedding was exactly a year later. They’re currently among the real couples featured in eHarmony ads, commercials, and at the site. Life has no guarantees, but the company’s methods are successful often enough to make it worth trying.

Pitiful
Reviewer: Anonymous 01-25-2005
I have been matched over 80 women, and have only communicated with one. I have been honest about my profile and responses. I might not be Mister Universe", but I'm no slouch. My advice, is to date the old fashioned way. |
The worst dating site
Reviewer: Anonymous 01-03-2005
After a lengthy, ambiguous(and pointless) questionnaire, it matches you with folks that really are not compatible. Then, if by some miracle, they come up with one person that seems interesting, you go through an obstacle course to get to know the person. It is expensive and not worth it.

Stay away!
Reviewer: Anonymous 11-13-2004
I believe eharmony is a fraud. I signed up for a year and never met anyone.
Later I found out that they match you with non-members THAT THEY COUNT AS A MATCH FOR THEIR GUARENTEE!

 Overall Satisfied
Reviewer: Anonymous 11-08-2004
I had a good experience with eHarmony. I got about 70 matches in the first month. I closed on some, some closed on me and I communicated with a few. I ended up dating one of my matches and am still dating him. My big concern was that I couldn't set the age range, so I ended up getting quite a few matches that were almost 10 years older than I am, and I wasn't willing to date men that much older.

A Huge Waste of Time & Money
Reviewer: Anonymous 11-05-2004
I had no control of the age of my matches.
the same is true of the height of my matches (I'm only 5'1")
They sent me 45 matches and honestly I had something in common with maybe 10 of them. I am very outgoing and I can't tell you how many were shy, boring, introverted, quiet.
Lastly (and most importantly) I did choose to correspond with 5 of those people (the other 5 were apparently not even members). Two of those people just stopped writing. Didn't close, didn't respond, nothing.

Very Disappointing
Reviewer: Anonymous 10-25-2004
I had a really negative experience with EHarmony. I didn't have very much in common with most of the matches that they sent me. There was very little contact with people after the open communication started. I also beleive that their are a lot of married men that use this service. I wouldn't recommend this to anyone. Don't waste your money! |
Fraudulent
Reviewer: Anonymous 09-18-2004
This is a fraudulent website that is more intrested in wanting your money than in making your life better. I am ashamed the Christian Community supports this, but what do you expect from a Christian Community that has gone from worshipping Jesus to worshipping the Almighty Dollar!

Not Worth It
Reviewer: Anonymous 09-04-2004
EHarmony is not worth the money. If you are successful with it, you are lucky. I did not get a lot of matches. |
Ridiculous!
Reviewer: Anonymous 09-04-2004
DO NOT waste your money on this ridiculous site unless you are interested in just giving your money to that obnoxious guy. On top of very few results,there are tons of glitches, etc. |
I have wasted my money
Reviewer: Anonymous 09-02-2004
Eharmony has been a disappointing experience for me. Unless you just have extra money to "donate" to them, I would not recommend it. I've tried it twice and never met anyone. I posted my photo from the beginning, and made my personality profile available. I had requests for communication, especially when my account had expired or was about to expire but once I paid the "communication" was over. |
I like It
Reviewer: Anonymous 09-02-2004
I have met a better selection of dates on eharmony in comparison with other sites.

Absurdly Inappropriate Matches
Reviewer: Anonymous 00-00-0000
After forking over $250 for a six-month membership, I was matched with men who were geographically inappropriate (60 miles away!), as well as socially incompatible--I'm an urbanite they were suburbanites; I'm socially and politically liberal, they were way right of right. I won't even get into the age differences. Throughout the six months I would provide feedback to their customer service staff (who work the standard 9am to 5pm work day, M thru F!) on the absurdly inappropriate matches, but they would send more of the same. At about month four I stopped being annoyed, and allowed myself to be entertained by the horrific quality of eHarmony's 29-dimension matchiing. |
