You think the eHarmony magazine promotions are bad? (somewhat racy image)

Posted by SingleGuyInNC on 07 February 2010 under eHarmonipedia · Comments (0)

This is what I got at the conclusion of a financial transaction with Match.com. The image is an actual screen capture from my browser window and has only been altered to obscure my user name. This was not a Photoshop or HTML trick.

I am really not sure what to think about it…

The first thing that comes to mind:
Do they market the equivalent magazine for women if your account gender is a female? Are they taking into account if you are seeking homosexual matching?

Poll 34: Public Opinion Poll: What is eHarmony’s mission?

Posted by eharmonyblog on 01 January 2010 under Polls · Comments (10)

“This incremental payoff for our hard work allows everyone [of us] to focus on the mission.” — Founding eHarmony CEO Greg Forgatch, re: the $110 million venture capital they raised in 2005.

You’ve dealt with them personally, so you should be able to give your opinion. Tell us, what is eHarmony set out to do?

Based on your opinion, if eHarmony were to pick one, which one will it do?

    Made a mistake Henry the 8th founded the Church of England. Just a freudian slip. Just one thing more I know someone wrote that eHarmony cons people into taking their personality test and applying. That is probably true. I also think that this maybe the reason why certain customers don't apply …

eHarmony UK gives away 39 days of free communication — with photos!

Posted by eharmonyblog on 05 February 2010 under Seen on eH · Comments (2)

eHarmony UK registrants, hold off on your credit cards! eHarmony UK offered some members today a incentive to return to the site and communicate with their “highly compatible across 29 dimensions” matches. Read the rules below.

Summary:
1. 7 days free: February 5-11
2. 4 days free: February 12-15 (free communication weekend)
3. 28 days free: February 16-March 15 (to those who qualify)

Interesting (desperate?) way to get things going and raise site traffic. I hope it works.

    The entire 2009 showed big paid sites with less worldwide traffic than 1 year ago or decaying in traffic. It is not due to economic downturn or the traction of social networking sites. Social networks of the "Western World" - except Facebook- : MySpace, Hi5, Friendster, FriendFinder, Bebo, Fot …

February 12-15: eHarmony US’s Twenty-second Free Communication Weekend

Posted by eharmonyblog on 05 February 2010 under Seen on eH · Comments (0)

UK members received an announcement today that the next free communication weekend (Valentines 2010) starts on Friday 12 February and ends Monday 15 February. Very likely this schedule will apply to all country sites.

Tip: FCW participants cannot initiate, accept or reject FastTrack, so don’t initiate FastTrack with them this weekend or communication would be stuck.

 

Discrimination lawsuit settles at two million dollars

Posted by eharmonyblog on 26 January 2010 under LGBTs not accepted · Comments (6)

Though a California Superior Court Justice ruled last October that eHarmony was unlawfully and intentionally excluding gays and lesbians from its services, the Kelly, Carlson and Soegi class action lawsuit agreed to drop the charges for a settlement of two million dollars.

The trial would have started on 1 February 2010.

Almost no changes will be made to the existing Compatible Partners service. (Read our review of eHarmony’s compliance to a previous New Jersey settlement.)

    Let my say finally after the history that eHarmony has with same-sex partners. I find it hard to believe that they are going to ride off in the sunset together. They have to have the technology in place otherwise they can not begin to do their job. Some businesses like gays as customers because th …

I’m deployed in Iraq, how do I cancel my account and get a refund?

Posted by don.frandsen on 22 January 2010 under Tips · Comments (4)

I am a deployed army reservist and have tried canceling my account. I in fact forgot about this and spent 6 months in Iraq before noticing I was being billed. I have had only one response from eharmony who will not confirm that my account is cancelled and asking me to call. I also asked for a refund for the prior three months, but no answer to that either. I have been emailing the usernet email….any help?

EHB, on your side — December 2009 issue

Posted by eharmonyblog on 02 December 2009 under EHB, on your side · Comments (9)

eHarmony Blog is on your side. If you have a complaint with eHarmony and you have trouble getting through customer service, let us know. Don’t forget to give your eHarmony account email address and don’t forget to give us permission to chase eHarmony on your behalf.

Here is last month’s supply of consumer complaints against eHarmony posted on the leading gripe website ConsumerAffairs.com, plus our comments. Some of this month’s complaints are valid and justified, thus highlighted, while the rest are “buyer beware — read the fine print” or may be resolved with a call to customer service.

No, we are not eHarmony, we just like to help out or comment. If you have an opinion as well, post them at the end of the article. Continue Reading ☞
