My Research,

CONS:
- These types of services should always be free, it should be a crime
to make money off people's loneliness.

- Well after paying a shit load of money, you still have to put up
with ads so they can make a shit load of more money off advertisers,
while abusing your paid right not to see ads.

- They do not have the most important thing to me, StarSigns, very
important in knowing what type of person they are most likely to be
(your StarSign is your base programming given to you by God) your life
experiences create the rest of who you are.

- They conveniently have no way of receiving feedback from user, that
should make you understand who they are working for, not you.

Conclusion:
Disappointing Service !

Tell me what you think,

I agree with you on the starsign . But at the same time in my opinion that is a limitation of who you could meet .

One good thing about there service if you are patient and keep an account they will give you free trial weekends .

The ones I hate (match.com) is you don't get to see who viewed you .

People misunderstand this all the time, so don't feel bad, but StarSigns only give you a starting point for what their personality could be like,
their life experiences make up the rest of who they are, but this is a great advantage!

Remember!, no one can tell you your future, and people can outgrow there base programming, so always give people a chance, but understanding what they are most likely to be like is a good thing !

Not sure if you're supposed to discuss a competing Service on this Site!

1) No polling or soliciting of any kind for websites, products or services, or directing people to other websites.

Oh I remember paying e-harmony money for three years ughhh!!!! On top of that. They were matching me up with thugs. I specifically stated the type of man that I liked and I kept getting "round the way guys" Then they e-mailed me and told me I exhausted my options, and there was no match for me. I closed my account, and they were still taking money from me for a minute.

So I told them enough was enough. They still email me, and ask me to reveiw my matches for free. I found my match here at the free site and I am happy as hell about it. I brag about it every chance I get.applause banana

I agree totally HF.

There's a lot more to a site like this than just "dating".
And this is the best site all around.

When I used them 7 years ago the matches I got were all 20 or more years older than myself and although I am open to a range of 10 years either way I think that is broad enough for me.

They wouldn't match me with men my own age so I dumped them. I wasn't looking for my father and that's what they were matching me with.

Kind of reminds you of Sneakers, a computer dating service that puts a computer geek with a supermodel. What are those odds in real life again? rolling on the floor laughing
Eharmony and Match.com are getting rich off the loneliness people feel. But so are several others.
Kind of like a pay for sex service. barf

If I was that desperate to pay for any service, it would be to pay for a mail order bride, but I won't ever be that desperate.
In these Obama depression times, I am pinching my pennies and thank goodness for Connectingsingles, at least if I don't meet anyone I can have fun on the polls and forums for free. grin

Never paid a site to find love for me--never will. I prefer to pick my own match, not have programmed site statistic's do it for me...think I'll be a lot better off with MY choice.

CS ROCKS! grin

CS is payd money for those Advers,that's why we can enjoy ourselves here for free.
If members here start soliciting for Sites on the other hand,that is Revenue lost to CS!conversing

eHarmony is awful, in my opinion. I hate how you have to pay a GOOD chunk of money to use it properly. I had no idea, but I went out for the day and came back to find it said I had 3 emails and an IM, yet I can't view any of that because I wasn't a paid subscriber. Not only that, but it won't let me view who has viewed my profile either. You can't even look at someone's picture!! I don't want to pay for 6 months and I think $40 for one month is out of control.


Match.com wasn't as bad. At least on there you can look at their full profile and pictures. Still can't really contact anybody though.

eharmony to be honest is not better than free sites; they are in various lawsuits;

especially in the U.S. we think if we pay the most, it must be the best but it's not true all the time.
