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?

Barton asks
i want to join eharmony from the middle east…
will they even allow me to join?
will i receive any matches considering the fact they match people by compatibility or will i be left all alone because i live so far?
Answer:
eHarmony claims to have registrants in 200 countries, and given that the United Nations only has 192 member nations, I’d say there’s a good chance that eHarmony has profiles in your country.

How do you focus your settings to prevent so many bad matches? I thought I had focused my interest in women who actually danced, rather than said they did, liked to do mountain hiking and do adventure travel rather than said they thought they might want to. Apparently, the eHarmony database engine just does keyword matches so any woman who puts “dancing” or walking or hiking in her profile is sent to me. I have spent dozens of hours reading and closing more than 250 “matches” during the past 3 months; how can I prevent that and increase the probability of receiving more compatible matches?
How can I set preferences to avoid receiving so many matches in my inbox at once–10-15 a day are too many to cope with?
To be frank, how can I set my preferences or settings to avoid receiving matches from unattractive, overweight women with whom I have nothing in common?

From the official blog, dated 1 December 2009:
Meet success couple Stacie and Marcelo. As experienced users of eHarmony, they’re happy to provide their advice to others who are currently using or thinking about trying the service.
Stacie was on eHarmony for over a year, and Marcelo used it on and off over a period of seven years. So sometimes, patience is the name of the game. As Stacie says, it just takes one!
Perseverance paid off for these two, who are now engaged to be married on December 23, 2009—the anniversary of their match date. We give them our heartfelt wishes for a wonderful life together!
Here’s their advice: Continue Reading »
I joined eHarmony in March and signed up for a six month membership. After getting numerous matches I was not compatible with, I began to question their personality matching. I set aside an afternoon to sign up as a male member making up three very unique profiles. To my amazement, every time I submitted the last portion of the test, I immediately received an email notification from eHarmony stating that I had a new match! They’re basically setting members up with ALL possible matches so membership numbers aren’t as high as I initially believed they would be based on what was available to me (and I live in Houston with settings in several states). I felt like a fool once I got the truth but there were a couple of nice guys I met so the site has some positives.
If you’re still set on giving eHarmony a try, I suggest you get an account on BigCrumbs.com where they will refund 58.5% of your membership through Paypal. Combine that with a good promo code and you’ve got the best deal in town:) Good Luck!
