I totally agree with all the negative reviews I've read thus far. I have also sent this statement to the Oprah Winfrey show: Actually my rating for Perfectmatch would be minus stars.
I have some information regarding an "Oprah Winfrey Endorsed" website that I know is important & I didn't see an area to actually submit this information so I'm hoping this will reach the proper people. PerfectMatch.com is an Internet dating service that says their company was endorsed by Oprah Winfrey as being "The Best Internet Dating Sevice"; it was endorsed by Oprah on her television show according to them. The site looks good & legitimate but their site has many glitches & both my brother & myself have had many problems. I've contacted the business office of this company & have asked for a refund twice due to improper service & once was ignored & once turned down. I'm only letting you know this because if in fact this Internet dating site was endorsed by Oprah (which was the only reason I chose this particular site) then it should be looked into. I also feel really bad because before I discovered the ill mannered service of this site, my brother, on my advice, also joined & he has experienced the same problems as I had. I'd appreciate some feed back from you with regards to this email & if anything, what can you or I do to gain a refund for myself & my brother. Thank you. Judy Flahive

Definitely the worst dating site I've used. All the matches I get sent are from miles away, and they never seem appropriate matches. I haven't met anyone off here and have very little expectation that I ever will. It's no surprise that they take your money before you can use the service, otherwise no-one would join.

Zero Stars actually...Absolutely the worst....I have emailed customer service 3 times and have not yet received a reply. What an incredible waste of my money and a blatant disregard for people. Please try any other service but this one.

I wish I read the other reviews before signing up. This is by far the worst matchmaking website. I have tried several and although the concept appears good, once you sign up (NO REFUNDS, by the way), you learn that the search engine is totally unacceptable. Forget Key word searches- They give you profiles of people a 1,000 miles away. There are obviously limited matches in the NY area which is why they don't let you narrow your search. The reason you join these services is to meet someone you can have a relationship with. Not make cross country trips. What a rip off! And when you inquire about improvements they have absolutely no commitment (now there's a funny word) as to when they will upgrade their system. Oh, and the perfect matches they send you (1 a month) is an even bigger joke!!! There are far better options than this site.
Golfmates may not give you a full blown personality description, but at least you can find someone with a similar passion and go from there..... Good luck with your search.

I've been on three different dating websites and Perfectmatch was by far the worst in terms of response. I believe that the profiles may be "real," but they are way outdated (inactive). I sent more than 30 e-mails over a four month period and NEVER received a response. I was also told to "be patient." On a different site, I actually met one of the same men I had written to on perfectmatch (where I'd gotten no response) and he told me that he hasn't been on that site for more than six months. So, it appears they keep profiles that are "inactive" to boost their numbers. Pretty frustrating.
Two of the four "perfect" matches I was sent did respond, but were more 300 and 430 miles away, and we all agreed the distance was too great. The other two matches were between 250 and 300 miles, still too far. I requested matches under 200 miles away.
When I contacted Perfectmatch, they were willing to extend my membership for two additional months, but why would I want that? If I'm writing away and no one ever answers, the point would be???
Thankfully, I am now dating someone that I did meet on match.com (no easy feat anyway) so for now at least, don't have to deal with all this. Good luck. Stay AWAY from Perfectmatch.

This site is a waste of your money. The cost is $99.90. They WILL NOT refund your money. I was on the site for two weeks and did not have one match or message. Singlesnet.com is also a waste of money, but they do offer a free service. OKcupid.com just does not have enough people. But if you must try online dating I recommend Plentoffish.com it’s free and I have found that they are good people on there. They offer an easy search to find what you are looking for and they also offer IMs. I never tried yahoo personals. Anybody have any comments about that one?

This site didn't do anything for me. I thought living in Los Angeles there'd be a huge chance of finding someone close, but all of the people who they matched me with were pretty far away (and not to mention, not that pretty themselves).
They're matching system, they're communication system, and just pretty much every way you interacted with people on the site seemed overly confusing. I didn't meet up with anyone from this site, but then again I wasn't that interested once I got on.
I recently paid $35 to try speed dating, and what do you know - I'm seeing three different women right now. Much more worth my time and money.

Save your money... do not sign up for perfectmatch.com. I do not even think it is legitimate and when you contact member services they give you a "canned" email response and refuse to refund your money. Wish I would have read these reviews before I had tried perfectmatch.

The only good thing about this site is the search options. And that's it.
The perfect matches they send are not PERFECT. Many do not have a photo attached and a request to get a photo is never answered. Not to mention the Icebreakers and Emails. They are never answered.
I did receive and email and icebreaker but not from anyone that I would ever be interested in.
In short, the site has the following:
1)lots of men that are blue-collar 2)lots of men that do not have college degrees 3)lots of men that enjoy taking photos with their shirts off 4)lots of men that are gay, bisexual, or transgendered 5)lots of men in leather pants 6)lots of men in the 45+ age group 7)lots of men that are atheist or non-religious 8)lots of men from the mid-west (think mullets) 9)lots of men who can not spell (when the profile is completed) 10)lots of men who could use a year membership at a gym

Guys… Perfectmatch.com is bizaro Match.com
On Match, I couldn’t get a response from any attractive woman… it was humiliating and really affected my confidence.
So I sheepishly sign up for Perfectmatch as a last ditch effort. I start at the top… the hottest available. I send out 10 quick icebreakers and get 3 responses! Then they start emailing me!!!
This girl, Heather, unbelievable! I started Sunday night and we are meeting Friday! Sure, she lives 80 miles away but OMG!!!
I am a really average looking guy. Yeah… I have a nice job and am well educated but never in my wildest dream would I expect to have a chance with someone like Heather. And she is just my best option!
