I was auto renewed when I didn't want the service. I asked for a pro rated refund thinking it was a fair compromise. They refused.
When you sign up but don't pay, they will bait you in with lots of emails and attention, most of it seemed bogus.
I had used and discontinued my account from a year ago, I asked it to be deleted and I still received emails from women, so they did not delete my account as requested. I'm a private person and don't appreciate that.
I wouldn't use them again in the future, seems like a scam and they got me for $75.
Match.com refuses to allow you to suspend your account due to the death of a close family member. You can hide your profile or cancel but they still keep all the money. They are a heartless company with no respect for humanity.
I was one of the better profiles on match.com and they kept my status as online. Even when I logged out, turned off my phone and computer, disconnected my internet, my friend said I was still online. When I mentioned this in my profile, match.com removed the entire comment about keeping the better profiles online. Sounds like proof enough that match.com is doing this to entice more users to pay and not because there are legitimate people actually online.
The first guy was just a negative person altogether. The second guy tried to scam me. Talk about wasting a month of my life to him. He went by the name of "Flash". Claimed to be a geologist and had a website. He looked legit enough. Then he asked me for money after being "robbed". I took the picture he gave me and had it checked out at Google Reverse Image Review and found that he had 3 other "names" at other websites. Watch out for him!
This is the worst dating site I have ever been on. I have been on free dating sites and met better girls that I actually matched with. I signed up for a six month subscription, and tried to get a refund. I talked to some foreign manager douche bag, and he gave the whole disclaimer bull-$#*!. I think you should refund people some money if you provide a bad service and you can not help them, or better yet, you should go out of business like a so-called reputable company should. I have months left, and I am not going to waste my time to even go back on it. I just want my money back at this point, and would like match. Com to be taken off the internet for extortion.
Match will notify you like there is someone interest in you. After you answer their questions they require you to register and select a membership. When you write stuff, they change it or delete it to suit them. So I have unsubscribed too many times to count and I still get messages, Finally, I got smart and blocked them. Who needs to be notified about non-existent women
I joined about 6 weeks ago. I have gone on 3 dates with 3 different men in my area. I had a good time on each date. One of the men seemed a little too old for me, one talked about his ex-wife, and the other drunk dialed me last night, lol. But I still think going on the dates was better than sitting at home. I'm currently taking a break from it. I know people who have found matches on there. One of my friends did find a picture of a man with 3 different names and profiles. I think sticking to people in your own area is the best way to eliminate fakes. I went on there with no expectations other than to have fun, which it believe is the best way to approach dating anyway. People should be aware of the automatic renewal practice.
My profile was stolen 3 times, I was impersonated then harassed by woman that thought I was the impersonator. I email Match 6 times to not one reply, finally I got anther nasty email form some woman and my account was locked out. I was kicked off after a year on the site. After making real connections that I had no access to and spent time with a very detailed profile these incompetents took this way to resolve an issue that was mine, I was the victim. They suck as a business and customer service not to mention protecting there members.
Rubbish - don't do it! You can't cancel it! They don't answer the phone- no
Matter what option you choose - there is no one to speak to - ever! They say the only way to stop it auto renewing from an iPhone is to do it from settings - subscriptions- it's not there in my list. I paid £60 the first time for 6months, I used it for all of 2 weeks - it's was rubbish and even though I thought I'd cancelled it it then it auto renewed and charged me £119.34! I went to PayPal who came back saying that my refund had been declined! Steer well clear of this money machine!
I may be a little biased here, but match.com did the trick. I met my husband on there 6 years ago. It's a bit ridiculous, but after waiting for someone to fall in my lap I had to finally do a little work. Yes, it's work. Dating online is by turns depressing, hilarious, interesting and emotional. You'll meet some nice people, although they might be nice for someone else. But hey, it's the best way to stay in practice and meet people instead of watching re-runs of The Bachelor in your sweatpants. You may meet your match, you may not, but at least you can say you tried.
Answer: I was unable to get a refund but I dispute the transaction and got my money back that way. I said it was because they were not providing the service they claim to offer. If you can dispute with your bank just tell them you didn't authorize the transaction and the company refuses to refund you. Good luck.
Answer: No I would not trust it. There are scammers on there. They will tell you want you want to here. They are from another country. Look for key words such as widoer, contractor, travel, one child only. They will compliment you right off the bat about your smile. Not safe. Try another site.
Answer: Back in the 1980s, strip clubs were pulling all sorts of over charge and fake charge scams and forcing people tp pay. Here in Atlanta a majpr federal case against the GOLD CLUB brought all that to light and alot of changes were made in the industry... I BRING THAT UP BECAUSE... these social sites seem to be attempting the same types of scams and are getting away with it. By U.S. fedeal standars ALL THESE SITES FALL UNDER THE RACKETEERING STATUTE. Unfortunately there is NO enforcement of these laws at this time. Your best option is to dispute the entire charge with your credit card. They may not want to do this because they are seeing so much of it. BE FIRM AND INSIST IT IS A MATTER OF CREDIT FRAUD. Also be sure to indicate that you are filling a consumer notice with the Federal Trade Commision (they have online forms for this to keep a numbers count on how many people are affected by these sorts of things. www.FTC.org). If you have been a good card holder, you shouldnt have any issues except for 1: ALL THESE SITES ARE NOTORIOUS FOR REBILLING/DRAFTING YOUR CREDIT ACCOUNT. You may want to file a COMPROMISED CREDIT CARD CLAIM AT THE TIME OF THE DISPUTE and have your card issuer SEND YOU A REPLACEMENT CARD WITH A NEW CARD NUMBER.
Answer: You will have a hard time getting your money back Terri. The first time I was with them years ago, I forgot the auto renewal and tried to get my money back and they fought me tooth and nail. This time I tried both Ourtime and Match and both experiences were not good though Ourtime was a bit better. I agree with some of the answers here that Match baits you toward the end of your subscription with possible contacts, but since I cannot proof that I have to add that disclaimer. Everything you have run into with your experience I have had with mine.
Answer: You likely signed up for auto-renewal, which Match.com doesn't explicitly tell you out-right that it will auto-renew. You will not likely get a refund back for the month they charged you. However, go to your account's settings and cancel the feature ASAP. You will still have access for the month in question, but at least you will have stopped future withdrawals.
Answer: Give them a call... they always have something to scam people about...
Answer: Cancel the card you used when you joined.
Answer: That is an extra fare item and they charge you each time. Best to do your own searches and replies...
Answer: Too much don't do it!
Answer: I feel the same way Teresa, i have been on the site for 1 year now and cancelled my subscription, but was told it won't officially cancel until May because i waited to late after my initial sign up day, so i got stuck with another year. I am a handsome guy with a lot to offer, but for some reason never really got emails as i expected, i started to think the people profiles were fake or the women i was interested in didn't know a good man if his profiled slapped them in the face, just sayN. 41, recently divorced for little over a year, highly educated, working in my profession, make close to six figures, single, don't cheat, great personality, smart, don't play, and real down to earth... but i guess no one believed it or didn't like my handsome picks... IDK. Confused!
