First, I sign up for 1 month. No responses from emails I sent (and no, I'm not an ogre)
Once i get to the end of my month, I'll get emails. Except they are from what I have learned are fake profiles. But once my membership ends, I cannot access messages. So like an idiot, I re-upped to see "who messaged me" and low and behold, it was the planted profiles from Match. Also....YOU (the paying customer), has to "notify" Match to let them know that the profiles are fake. And it's OBVIOUS they are - but Match doesn't do the job, you do.
Finally, they had offered "Get 3 months for the price of 1" - so I figured I'd give it one more try. So...I signed up for that. Then, I check my subscription end date - 1 month only. Their response - word for word is as follows -
"Since this offer is only available for a limited time period, contact us at your earliest convenience so we can help you with the redemption"
Apparently, they want me to pay for ANOTHER month to get this offer....because already paying for it didn't work once!!
RIP OFF!!! Use the free sites if anyone has dating online options. This site is a complete scam/rip off.
I signed on for 6 months using all their standard forms of communication, and only after 5 weeks of use was notified by them that my account was blocked for violating their terms of use.
This is a total fabrication, I know 100% that I did absolutely nothing to this effect.
Upon questioning what the issue was, I received a reply indicating that they could not provide specifics on what the violation was without my having to submit to their legal department a subpoena or search warrant or court order.
This is patently absurd, they are accusing me of some violation without even telling me what exactly what my violation is, and not even a chance to clarify the matter or even offering me a refund.
I pride myself on my integrity and take great offense to this kind of allegation and their business practice of acting as judge and jury without recourse or the chance to even defend myself.
I contacted their customer care dept. who are all located in Costa Rica and have no real authority or even access to proprietary information or blocked accounts ( a total waste of time) no one can even provide any contact information for their corporate office located in Dallas TX.
They annonymously hide behind a website barrier, it baffles me how they manage to get away with this giant scam (must be some politicians who get benefits to write the laws to make it legal for them to operate and get away with this BS.
Match.com should take shame in the way they treat people by ripping them off and treating them with impunity, beware this is not a legitimate business, but run like a mafia !
Like many others, continuous billing without my approval. Only it gets worse. I met someone on match.com We both took profiles down and cancel prescription. When canceling it asks why. Also wanted other members screen name. They put us both online. Sent email 3 months for price of one. My advice would be not to provide the other members number. It's none of their business. They manipulate system. Trying to play us against each other for a buck! !

I was suckered in a few ways.
