Dating Sites Reviews Forums

Match is totally worth it!! I met my boyfriend of almost a year on Match.. He wasn't the first guy I met. In fact he was the 6th. But it was worth it. When we met we hit it off right away! We both felt very comfortable around each other and our families accept us. So if you are looking for your one and only don't give up! They are out there! Definitely try out Match!

I had a similar experience a couple of years ago. It took me a few weeks but I finally met someone. Unfortunately we broke up in the new year so I am out checking the different dating services. I was thinking Tinder at first since it is the one you hear about but after reading the review I think it is too young for me. I plan on trying my luck with Match again.

your forgetting all the dead accounts of women who left without trace AND GUYS ARE JUST CHASING PHANTOM PROFILES. SPENDING CASH ON DEAD ACCOUNTS

All scammers.
Almost all the men who have contacted are unable to meet. They are all widowers and talk about love and trust in the first messages. They all want to get off site as soon as possible and have dodgy english. They are so obviously scammers that it's ridiculous.

Match.com should be ashamed of themselves, they are profiting from scamming and do nothing to to prevent it. I think they should be charged with collusion in fraud and theft.

Match is only the second dating site I have ever tried. On a scale from 1-10, where 10 is the best, I give it a 4. The people and staff behind the site were great, but I couldn’t date them. The interface and ease of use was good. There did seem to be a subjective process on profile photos. I couldn’t use one where I had a hat on, but you could see my entire face; yet guys were able to use hats and sunglasses. You could not tell what they looked like. There should be a rule whereby photos should be within the last year. My profile pic that did get approved was two weeks old. I swear one guy used one from the early 80’s. When there’s only one photo, the profile photo, that’s a giveaway the photo isn’t an accurate representation. Also, I think the Summary should be mandatory with a minimum number of words. You want a good idea of who they are. I don’t care what company they work for. You can tell a lot more in the Summary. Plus, I was looking for spelling and sentence structure. I needed to know I could have decent conversation with this person and holiday cards wouldn’t just be “Love, [insert name here].”
As far as response, it was a bust. I’m very attractive, had a great Summary, college degree, interesting and impressive achievements in my life, and so on. I guess my lesson is to “dumb down” my information, which would be misrepresentation. I might have scared some away. I also had five photos. I think my point here is know the audience on the site you choose. I don’t care how big the fish you caught was, I wanted quality. I think my next try, after I wait a bit, will be like Elite Singles, or something similar. Best of luck.

I have been a paid member, and have met ladies from the site.
I have since cancelled my auto repeat.
One really interesting feature is that when someone sends a message, you cannot read it, and the face is blurred out, but much worse is that, when you delete the message, the sender is then blocked. I can imagine the effect this might have on the sender. Being blocked is not a nice experience.

if they offer womens photos after giving over card details they dont have any possible meets in your area ..a scam like many sites who use this trick... some areas just dont have any women subscribers ..some have many

No match.com and plenty of fish are just knocking shops. They dont work.
They do not match up men as in my case that are suitable for me. God knows how they work it out, because it is way off.
I know some have been lucky on both sites but they are a rarity. Theres a lot of horrors stories to be heard from both men and women.
POF have stopped you reporting wrong with photos, be it close to the knuckle, cant see their eyes or faces, wearing masks or they are a famous person, and the men in my case main photo is them about 30 years ago!!

Be careful with Match.com. After you register and receive messages from interested people, you immediatelly are asked to pay subscription to be able to answer. After you pay the subscription, you unexpectedly loose acces to your account. And its completelly useless trying to get in touch with support team of match to find out the reason. They ignore and do not care even to sespond your application sent to support team.
And you either can not acces your account to delete it not to have it hannig on the site or edit it, no you do not know what actually has happened, whether it was deleted by match without any notice or some one else broken your account.

(Reuters) -

The online dating company Match Group Inc really, really does not want anyone to know that it’s in a big fight with the U.S. Federal Trade Commission over the FTC’s investigation of a Match subsidiary that allegedly shared users’ photos with a facial recognition company.

The FTC filed a petition on May 26 to force Match to comply with a civil investigative demand for documents related to an alleged 2014 data-sharing deal between Match subsidiary OkCupid and Clarifai Inc, an artificial intelligence company. The FTC investigation follows a 2019 New York Times article asserting that Clarifai built its database of faces with OkCupid user photos supplied by an OkCupid founder who was also a Clarifai investor.

OkCupid and Match denied any commercial agreement with Clarifai in the Times story, but in 2020, the FTC demanded documents from the companies about the alleged deal. According to the FTC, Match responded with “blanket and sweeping” claims of attorney-client and work-product privilege. After more than a year of battling, the FTC filed its petition, asking the court to order Match to turn over 136 disputed documents.
