Turn one complaint into a collective action

PC collective complaint

A Collective Complaint helps you unite consumers dealing with the same issue, such as wrong charges, unexpected fees, damaged items, or misleading promises. It goes beyond a single review by growing stronger with every signature, making it harder to ignore. Once you reach 20 supporters, we’ll send it to the company to encourage a response.

eHarmony Auto-Renewal Charges Without Notice — Refund Denied — 2018 Settlement Violated

1 supporter

eHarmony is charging subscribers for auto-renewed subscriptions with no advance notice, no pre-renewal email, and no meaningful way to cancel or reach customer service. When consumers dispute the charge, eHarmony denies refunds using identical boilerplate responses across multiple representatives. This is not a new problem. eHarmony paid $2.2 million in a 2018 court-ordered settlement for these exact practices — unauthorized auto-renewals, no affirmative consent, no pre-renewal notification, and no accessible cancellation mechanism. Based on over 1,900 BBB complaints filed in the last three years alone, they have continued these practices without change. If you were charged by eHarmony without advance notice, denied a refund, or found yourself locked out of customer support at the moment you needed it most — you are not alone. Join this complaint to make our collective voice impossible to ignore.

Membership payments monthly

  • I've paid twice; my card on file isn't being kept.
  • I had to pay manually again, twice.

eHarmony - Membership payments monthly

I've paid twice and I don't understand why you're not keeping my card on file. That card is supposed to stay on file to avoid payment problems, and yet it's having problems.

I had to pay manually again, twice. The account worked, and today it’s not working again, and I can't get into my account. What is happening?

Why is this happening? I don't understand why you are doing this to me with payments.

Preferred solution: Save my card on file the first time. Why are you blocking my account if I put a card on file and I had to pay again manually AGAIN. IM CONFUSE and I dont understand what is going on ?why are you doing this to me?

User's recommendation: Dont let them double charge you

eHarmony - Billing 561.65 that I did not agree to

I signed up for eHarmony, never used it. I never saw that I would be billed $561.65.

Are you kidding me right now? Unlike any other dating site, none of them billed this ridiculous amount of money.

I haven't even used their site. Good luck collecting it.

Preferred solution: Full refund

User's recommendation: Make sure you understand in the fine print or wherever it’s at that you obviously don’t see it just be beware buyer beware

I want to cancel my subscription. There...

AI Highlights
  • Wants to cancel subscription due to no local matches within 50 miles and alleges a match was a scam artist in Fairfax.

I want to cancel my subscription. There is nobody in my 50 mile radius.

I am in my 70s and incapable of meeting with anyone outside my range. That isnt even doable to be honest. I need someone in my hometown and there was an only one and he is not a fit for me.

The one person that I was interested in even though he was too far said he lived in [GEOGRAPHIC_DATA], Va and he then told me he was on a boat in the [GEOGRAPHIC_DATA] and owned a drilling company. He was a scam artist.

I want to end this subscription. I am afraid of even doing it now, plus you have nobody to offer me. I realize I signed a one year contract, but since you have nobody but a scam artist you need to let me out of this contract.

I even later added [GEOGRAPHIC_DATA] where I have a second home, but there is no way to limit the range in [GEOGRAPHIC_DATA] to try to find someone meeting my criteria. Thank you very much for your understanding.

User's recommendation: I would not recommend this dating site.

Dont pay for love

Updated by user May 20, 2026

They refused to cancel my membership.How greedy.The site is awful and all they want is money.They are suppose to represent love and positive relationships and they themselves have none

Original review May 18, 2026

I want to cancel my membership. Th only way I can contact eharmony is through email.

I sent several emails asking to cancel due to outrageous amount and I am not compatible with the men on the site. Most do not live close to me.

I paid 1 month and not asking for a refund but to cancel my subscription/ membership.

They refused and I owe $60 for the next 5 months.Outrageous.

Just out of courtesy they could cancel.

This is not a good look for them.

I am extremely upset and very disappointed.

User's recommendation: don't do it

Asking for help

stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full
AI Highlights
  • Accidentally chose a more expensive subscription and informed support.
  • Cannot afford the $465 charge; seeking a refund and a cheaper plan.

I made a big mistake. I clicked on the wrong subscription plan. I noticed the error immediately and notified them at once. My checking account is at a minus. I can't afford this. Please return the over $465 to my account and let me choose a less expensive subscription. I'm 84 and on a very limited budget. Thank you for your consideration.

Claire

There was no solution. I spoke to several people and they didn't care. They kept telling me that they couldn't turn it around. At one point, they put the money back in my account and then took the $465 back out again. When joining, I wanted to choose a package. I clicked on one and realized I made a mistake. I immediately contacted them to tell them about it. They didn't care. I begged, actually, with no luck. I'm on a fixed income and that is way too much money. It left my account at a minus.

Please stay away from eHarmony. Their practices are immoral. There are so many dating sites to choose from. Be very careful. You'll be next. Very bad customer service. I did ask them to take this one off and let me choose another plan. I can't believe that anyone can steal money from an elderly woman. I'll never recover from this. This amount could buy me food plus a few other bills. eHarmony are thieves and they don't care who they're stealing from.

PLEASE STAY AWAY FROM THESE THIEVES.

Cons:
  • Are thieves

AI Highlights
  • Scammers target dating sites and direct users to Telegram or phone numbers.
  • This dating scene is risky due to lies.

Scammers work these sites to find their next victim. Then they lead you off the site to telegram or Google phone.

Stay away altogether. Date the old fashion way. Scammers have taken over these dating sites and made them too risky. The lies are so convincing and they literally have no morals whatsoever.

My life is ruined because of this. Learn from me.

User's recommendation: Stay away from these sites. Find someone the old fashion way.
