This is interesting. The site remains free unless you want to contact someone. There were two different females, local, much yonger then me who contacted me and was able to supply their email. I replied to find out they live in Russia. They sent pictures (look like models), both saying that "I seem like a nice guy" and they were looking for trust in converstions. I wanted to send Match.com the notice and "I had to pay!!!!" They should be gratful to receive such information. It may be ligit, but I was asking them to check it out. It the mean time, guys (and gals) be carfull of this site. I will not pay for this site.

Match.com is a ripoff, it's worth about $15/year and they want about 3 times that for a month if you only subscribe for a month. Even if you get into a longer term contract it's still at least $20 per month. The marketing people at Match.com must be drunk. I created a profile with Match.com, but you can't do anything other than browse people's profiles and wink. What's more, some metally challenged person decided it would be a good idea to make you subscribe to the service just to see who emailed you. Someone emailed me for instance and I may have actually paid to email the person back if the cost was reasonable and it was someone I was interested in, but Match.com wouldn't even let me see who it was. With all the losers on there the odds of the email being from someone I'd like to meet....well, they're certainly not great. It's just very overpriced. Plentyoffish.com is free and while the layout is pretty bad, I guess it beats having your wallet raped by Match.com.

I had the worst experiences of my life with this dating site. I met a scammer from Nigeria who needed $700.00 to leave the country. I met a woman in another state who turned out to be emotionally unstable and not ready for another relationship especially while going through a divorce. That was my mistake as well. I don't mind the internet dating thing but I wish there were one that has a screening process....anyway do not for any reason use match.com and if hell freezes over some of those people will need snow shoes!!!

I signed up with Match.com and did a three month subscription. I had no success and when my three months was up I thought I did not have to pay anymore. When I received my credit card statement a month after my subscription ended, Match.com was still billing my credit card even though it should have ended. I called them and after hours of trying to get ahold of someone, I finally did.
They told me that when I hit the "I agree" button that has the pages and pages of legal terms that nobody reads, I had agreed to continue my subscription after the three months had ended. Does this make any sense? I only wanted a three month subscription and thought this was what I was getting.
Stay away from Match.com as they just rip you off and I have heard that a lot of the photos/profiles on their website are bogus - used just to get people to sign up.

Wow! Glad I thought to check online for feedback about Match.com ... before reading the feedback, I made a profile a month or so, ago - took a wait/see approach before thinking of becoming a subscriber. I got a few winks and then an email on three consecutive days. My first impulse was to join - I saw the monthly fees and balked. I became a bit suspicious at the sudden activity. I actually debated to join/spend the money to join to find out about the email activity - then checked online for feedback. GLAD I did! Im closing out my profile as soon as I send this review. Tsk! Tsk! Match.com!

I met my guy on match.com, we dated for a year. We needed to take a break to figure out something. Within a two week period he put up a new profile to find new meat. Beware he is not going to commit. His screen name refers to a furry animal.

I decided to read these reviews to see what other people think of Match.com. I have only been signed up for a few weeks. I have been contacted by at least 30-40 men. I have met 3 of them. All were sincere and "normal". The first week I was hit by several scammers. Caught on to those quickly. That stopped after the 1st week. The first man I met was exactly what he said he was. We had no chemistry but still talk and we are friends and live near eachother. The second was just clueless on how a first date or meeting should go. He was Ok but had no manners at all. The third is someone I may not at all have considered even meeting. I found out he "adjusted" his age on his profile. He told me the reason why and after meeting him I agreed. He is a wonderful man and I feel so lucky to have met him. I would not have met him had it not been for Match.com. But I have had success and you are going to find scammers on any of these sites. But I am a 47 year old woman who keeps herself in good shape. I have real and recent photos posted and I get "winks" and emails daily. I wasn't having luck just meeting someone in my every day life so I thought I would give this a try. And so far it has been good for me. Less than a month and 3 meetings and a new friend and prospective companion - I'd say this is pretty great!

I agree with most of the comments on here. It is a complete rip off. I had been a member for around a year and frankly had given on it after a month.
I contacted them to cancel recently and guess what, the views and winks started again. I write a good profile, I'm in marketing! Never had an email answered even though one lady 'apparently' winked at me 3 days running.
Legaly i think there is little that can be done to get the money back.
My advice? Don't sign up!!!

DO NOT SIGN UP FOR MATCH.COM - CAN'T REACH THEM BY PHONE ALWAYS BUSY AND CAN'T SEND THEM AN EMAIL TO COMPLAIN ABOUT THEIR SERVICE AND THE MEMBERS HAVEN'T BEEN A PAID MEMBER FOR SOME TIME AND YOU GET MATCHES THAT DON'T MATCH WYHAT YOU SPECIFIED.

Signed up for Match.com and when I received my credit card statement, the services described were called "Escort Agency" (Amex statement).
Nice!
I called a half dozen times, was put in the queue and then when I thought I was being run through to an agent, it would hang up on me! Tried three/four different numbers, sent through an email online, only to have an auto responder assume that I was canceling my subscription and suggesting I use their online help.
Called the number in that email...back to being on hold again and then being hung up again.
Nasty nasty customer service. Never, ever again will I use Match.com.
