Why have you remove the search function and replaced it with a discovery function which is useless and doesn’t work ? I can’t even search within my own town now or access saved searches which no longer exist. Using your new discovery feature and search within 300 miles of my local town shows no one on line. So do you no longer have members in the UK within 300 miles of the Southwest? Do you have a bug in your app and need to fix it

I can spot them a mile off. Usually one photo and a ridiculous target age range.
They really should have an algorithm to moderate such profiles before I see them.
There are some that have been there months.
A big problem is me paying to send a message and never knowing if it’s been read or get a reply. I assume they have to pay. Ridiculous. Me paying should be enough to allow them to reply.
In a month I’ve spoken to two real people. A poor return for the money.

Don’t waste your money, terrible and I want my money back!!

Firstly you can’t do anything without paying subscription or upgrades. There is no Customer Care Team or Email to contact them both in the website and in the app.
I decided to join with a six month membership as it seemed more affordable but then on the second screen, it asked me about upgrades and I totaly didn’t think upgrades would be extra money on my subscription and I have been literally forced to buy an upgrade to receive messages. Now I have to pay £9.99 for subscription and £9.99 for connect upgrade. I straight away have cancelled both subscriptions but they are still charging me until the six months end. And I tried to find a customer service email for the UK but this is so difficult. I have sent a message through website to ask them at least cancelling the connect upgrade on my account a month ago, but no replies at all. Now i know they will charge this total £19-20 every month for 6 months but I don’t want it becuase I am not happy with the Match at all for many reasons. And even if I try to close my account, it says you will still have to pay us.
The website and the app both are so confusing (the reason why i have mistakenly bought the upgrade). The UI is awfully very annoying to navigate. Matches are so unmatchable and so fake. Most of them not even verified accounts, not worth even messaging. One day they are on your like list, next day they disappear. It's impossible to remove likes you are not interested in or unlike to correct mistakes you may make. This is especially annoying when your likes start filling up with unavailable profiles or profiles without photos.
When you look at a person’s profile, they see that you looked at them unless you buy incognito pass for 2 days or for a week for £9.99. I find this very ridiculous, i would have searched this app more before buying the subscription.
And when you update, it doesn’t update instantly in the app unless you log out and log in again, this eas ny experience with this app.
I am very disappointed with the algorithm which should provide better options, given that they have a reputation as the biggest dating site globally. I really want to close my account but just because they are still charging me, I’m holding on.

March is just like the rest of these so called matchmaking companies, profiteering at the expense of genuine people. Using fake accounts to lure you to pay extortionate prices for the sake of nothing.
A ‘lady’ liked my account after I conveniently turned off the marketing emails (I received an email every hour saying someone viewed my account) anyway, I refuse to pay these ridiculous prices so I thought I’d search for this ‘lady’ as per their emails matching criteria. What did I find you say? Well nothing, after inputting the relevant ‘matching’ requirements we both ‘shared’ I put the distance to my local at 500 miles, age range to that based on the email and I could not find this ‘lady’ after to scrolls. Proof that they create fake accounts to try and lure you to pay their prices to find ‘matches’
This company like the rest should be ashamed.

I have been a subscriber to Match.com for many years now, so I feel I am qualified to say that this site is notoriously difficult to get dates (too many scams or fake profiles, too many users liking you but not messaging you afterwards, etc).
Secondly, Match.com is not deaf-friendly; for instance, if you are using Top Picks of the Day, you will be asked: “Who does this voice belong to?” The question is: how the hell are deaf users supposed to answer this stupid question?
Waste of time. I shan’t renew my subscription.

Technically you will sign two contracts on the same email and will be charged two separate payments I think that is wrong.

I have have contacted customer care and they have not helped me either. Now what do I do? I have no where to turn and my money has been taken and I can’t get to actually speak to a person.

This is genuinely the worst dating app I’ve ever installed.
I am 20 years old, and despite me setting my match preferences to no older than 22, the app allows men old enough to be my father (40+) to send me provocative and predatory messages.
I frankly find it disgusting that older men are allowed to be inappropriate and creepy to girls less than half their age even when girls like myself have their match preferences to 22 and younger.
Not to mention that you literally can’t do anything on this app without paying. The layout is shocking also.
Whilst it has been fun to call out these old men on their predatory actions, I will be uninstalling, as I find it repulsive that this is allowed when I have made it clear that I am looking for somebody no older than 22.
My only advice to young women is to not install this app unless that type of thing floats your boat. It definitely does not float mine and I definitely won’t be finding my match.

Actually quite upsetting experience despite subscribing. Most of the likes or messages are from men 30 years younger than me or obvious dodgy profiles. Reported one man who had about 7 identical profiles but with a different name and he still keeps appearing. Not really interested in men who want to be my slave or want me to be theirs but there’s lots of them.
I did try this site about 6 years ago and lots of the profiles are exactly the same with the same pictures and also seem to be online constantly!

I’m a professional lady looking to date, I joined Match and paid thinking it would bring more opportunities. I have hundreds of ‘likes’ every day, but not one message or if I get a message it’s from a cross dresser called carol who where’s princess dresses (I’ve got screenshots). The likes are continually repeated, I don’t believe half of them are real. It asks me what I want, I’m 6ft and want a relationship and it sends 5ft4 Brian who lives 300 miles away and smokes weed. It’s a complete waste of time, Facebook dating is free and so much better, as is tinder and bumble. They got rid of the robot that suggested people (albeit the size of my 12 year old and the age of my dad) but not replaced that with anything so unless you’re super easy and want an exotic sti from someone you’ll have to travel hours for to find out he’s got no teeth and thought kfc was romantic then go ahead and join, if you want something that can actually work then spend the money elsewhere. I hope you find your one but it probably won’t be on this app

I do wish Match wouldn’t keep matching me with ladies whose requirements I don’t meet, such as age and height! As a consequence of which I’m spending too much time sifting and checking. I’m also getting fed up with seeing the same old faces so I decide to thin them out by blocking those that didn’t suit me but Match keep showing them to me. I’m also amazed at those that don’t send a reply to my simply hello’s which is rude not to acknowledge, even if in a polite no thank you but I wish you well manner. We all have one thing in common which is to search and hope that we get matched with a potential partner or spouse I find that most of the ladies I’ve chatted with either don’t really know what they’re looking for or are expecting their Prince Charming to come along and sweep them off of their feet - which ain’t gonna happen under any circumstances girls. Finally I feel that Match should view every main photograph and, where necessary, advise ladies to a) show a head and shoulders image, rather than some distant image at a holiday resort and b) stop filtering their faces that turns men off much more than seeing a few laughter lines! As for those that put up images of themselves looking away or the back of their heads I say : STOP WASTING YOUR MONEY HONEY, COS NO MAN IS GONNA TO PAY TO GO ON A TOTALLY BLIND DATE!

Version 8.87.0
There seems to be a lot of users however it seems pretty pointless having a dating app where you can’t send messages to matches, especially in a world where social networks have dating apps built in with no such restrictions…
Further to the response from the developers, my issue is not with the need to make a profit to pay for customer services etc. or that there are features that you have to pay for, it is that the basics of a dating app (mainly the ability to contact a match) should really be included in the basic version. I’m assuming that there have been many, many hours wasted by people setting up accounts and swiping potential matches just to find out that the ability to actually message them will cost a small fortune in terms of app prices. I hope this cleared up any confusion you may have had when responding to my initial review

Version 8.53.0
I've tried different apps and platforms out of curiosity for the tech. This one does not perform well in comparison. First, there are too many sites and modes. Second, the site is supposedly marketing towards people who are a bit more mature and seek long term relationships. However, most men at least upload on average 3 photos less than compared to other apps. One would expect there to be more nudges to invest time in the creation of a profile if the service wanted to initiate longer term connections. The bios, although providing enough space, are less detailed even compared to e.g. Hinge (which focuses more on visuals). The algorithm doesn’t fare well either. People recommended to me hardly ever had the education or features I was searching for and the algorithm generally did not pick up on preferences well or offered functions for prioritisation. I’m not evaluating this app based on the experience with the people on it as that would be unfair. But I believe as a service it is not performing as well as comparable apps or sites.

Good if you over 40 or look like a model.

Version 8.43.0
Navigation around the app is fine. But the actual principle behind the app is flawed.
If your a younger gen on the app. Then good luck. But if you “don’t look good” you won’t get any attention. I’ve been active on the app for a month and not got any attention. Just out of an experiment I liked and messaged over 200 people to see if any one would reply. The only few who did were older then I would consider having a relationship with. Although easy to talk too.
Also Since you can like and message people who haven’t paid the subscription, there is no way of telling if they are ignoring you or just unable to reply.
Wish I could refund. But got another 5 months of this. Which I won’t even entertain.

Please fix the following The ability to unlike someone when you accidentally click like/heart, this is easily done when you scroll through a search list and can be embarrassing. Fake accounts are plentiful. It’s expensive. If you’re over 50 for some reason it tries to link you with another dating site called Affinity where it will expect you to pay for a further subscription, fine take me to an old codgers dating site but make it free Don’t try and cop more money out of me. I think a photo should be mandatory how can you expect a dating site to work on accounts with no photos .. This is where I get suspicious is this done on purpose by Match to give fake user numbers, whatever it is it shouldn’t be allowed. I can’t cancel subscription through the app I have to visit the website.

Having tried this app more than once due to the challenges of in person meeting I am deeply dissappointed. I can’t and wouldn’t hold the developer accountable for half the people and their negative behaviour. However, not being a tech genius I don’t know how the software works other than getting repeated so called views and likes from the same few people who, when contacted, then mentioned that they had never even seen my profile. Receiving a firm ‘like’ then non response to polite hello messages is not uncommon.
Numerous female profiles were read and updated with warnings of the same from them, many stating that they received numerous responses to likes that they hadn’t actually done.
This does not help what is already an awkward way of beginning an encounter.
On a personal note re the site content, I have found that a cautious approach to many profiles is advisable with fiction and reality being comfortable bedfellows in many profiles when you actually pluck up courage to meet for a coffee. As I say, that isn’t Matches fault.
I have contacted the provider directly several weeks ago before posting public review however they have not responded.
Not a cheap way of online dating so just be aware of what you are purchasing before committing would be my advice.

Pointless….

Women on Match are rude and yet as part of the sign up process we are all asked to treat people with respect.
General overview is that women don’t send first messages and receive loads of first messages daily. Men don’t get any so need to make the first move.
Free m experience I believe that if I wrote 1000 new polite messages that only 10 would reply … that’s rude and I don’t see Match doing anything to improve that !!
So 3 weeks into a one month membership the whole process is frankly pointless and not something I see any value in .
Please don’t misunderstand me , if the message is rude then I don’t expect that person to reply. However I have written many polite, complimentary, relevant first messages only to see that person view me and then block me . That’s not right
There is a massive imbalance I feel.
Additionally, I also feel that there are a huge amount of old inactive member profiles showing. Presumably to make Match look like it has a wide paid membership base. But through a very easy few steps of investing that over a couple of days, clearly you active profiles are much lower than suggested.
Hope that gives you some of what you have asked for but generally I could write a book on how rude women are on Match

Well where do I start. I got a month subscription thinking I would get even one like. My profile is up to date. With nice pictures and I’ve described myself, my hobbies what I do for work and how I spend my social life. Doesn’t matter what you put in your first message you can write a 50 line paragraph to get that certain person interested. But not one reply which is a bit hurtful and disheartened. Because all they have to say is yes I will to you or no your not my type. I personally think some are bots. Why? Because they look at your profile and that’s it. Bit harsh really. I’ve had better joys on Facebook dating groups at least they are real genuine ppl. So as soon as my subscription ends I’m definitely deleting my profile. I’ve have two dates in the space of 6 years since I been using match.

Paid for a subscription but still cannot see the messages. Contacted customer support chat. Absolutely useless. Many potential matches deleted accidently while trying to read what had been written. I have been on the app for less than one month, and have seen all the guys I am interested in, spoken to them, met some of them. It is a very shallow pool. Blocking the men is the only way to properly make a boundary. Someone did that to me today and I am shocked to see that his profile and our messages didn't simply disappear. I actually received a message that I had been 'blocked'. Why do I need to see this? Even though there was no hardship between us in any way, it was the only way he could get me out of his matches. I have done this to guys for the same reason he did it to me. This is SO bad. Really nice guys will have received this 'you are blocked' message, when really we were done and there were no hard feelings in any way. I regret very much paying for a subscription. Dreadful.

I have had Match delete my account without any explanation, I have paid for a 6 month subscription and less than a month in they emailed saying they have deleted my profile for non compliance with their terms and conditions which is complete rubbish! They have done this 3 times now and stolen my money, if someone puts a false claim against you then they believe them and delete your profile and no refund of the remainder of your paid subscription!
They don’t tell you why they close your account and no opportunity to appeal their decision or explanation! They are scammers I repeat they steal your subscription and then delete your profile. I haven’t sworn, sent any bad messages to any other users or harassed anyone! Don’t use this site!

I’m four months into a six month subscription and it really has been a monumental waste of money. I doubt many of the female profiles are genuine. I’ve been on two dates in the whole time I’ve been on here, despite sending initial messages to a few (but not an excessive amount). Most accounts just can’t be bothered to respond, no matter how much effort you put into your first message. The two dates I managed to go on, well, one turned out to be a homeless woman looking for somewhere to stay (I kid you not. She tried to tempt me into inviting her by suggesting she was into all kinds of weird stuff in the bedroom) and the other couldn’t have been less enthusiastic about going on a date if she had been forced into it. I know I’m no oil painting and not much of a catch, but seriously. I’ve been more successful on the free apps!
Waste of money. I’ve stopped the recurring payment and now I’m just waiting for the subscription to run out so I can delete the app and its 500-odd notifications that it has invented out of nowhere.
If you’re a man, older than 30, I wouldn’t even bother. It’s soul-destroying and a money pit of disappointment. The few genuine women on here don’t even bother to respond.

I’ve tried Match a couple of times and it has got worse in its functionality. You cannot ‘unlike’ anyone you like by mistake or change your mind about; or anyone who’s profile gets removed for whatever reason. So your ‘likes’ get clogged up with deleted profiles or profiles that you have liked in error. You need to be able to delete them from your likes.
The other thing it does, is tell you that you have new likes and when you look, it’s not new likes at all but people who liked you weeks ago. That needs sorting because the only way to stop them repeatedly popping up is to block them.
It’s a really annoying glitch. I came off after a month. I got fed up with the scam profiles and site glitches. For the price it should be better

Not the best imo!

I’ve had three accounts in 18 months.
I get a mixed bunch of men messaging me.
I’ve met three very toxic (narcissistic men) one was very obvious, the second was confusing though showed his true colours and the third led to a long distance relationship off the app and was a covert narcissist and revealed himself to be perverted!
My issue with the app is when swiping left (X) I get messages from male using politely asking why I keep viewing their profile or more aggressive messages accusing me of stalking them!
I had to put a polite note on my profile to say it must be an issue with the app, though wasn’t believed most of them time. This was a very unnerving experience.
My last 6 month subscription I can’t get into!
Then signed up for a month (reported a member) and uploaded one of my regular photos that I’d used on my other two accounts and then the mediators deleted my profile!!
Not impressed and I’m trying to find a way to cancel my 6 month subscription and be refunded for my last one.

I joined and signed up for paid membership. At first I constantly had 30+ notification badges on the app, but when the app was opened… nothing there. In 2 months I’ve had 3? app updates, which seems to have sorted the notifications.
Now I’ve been told I had 4 likes in the last 24hrs, looked in the app to find 0 new likes.
Constantly being shown the same profiles over and over and over again - even profiles I’ve liked keep coming up again and again.
The “coach” is useless. If it can’t find a profile to suggest, it asks if you want to extend your search criteria… typing “no” gets the response that it doesn’t understand what I’ve said but would I like to extend my search criteria???
Don’t waste your money on this app. If they aren’t prepared to admit they don’t have any new profiles to show you, what hope is there for them finding an actual match?

Viewing

2022-03-08
I was unaware that swiping left and pressing the “X” is registered as a view, thus getting messages from women that I would never look at messaging me, thinking that I was viewing them.
This is making women that I’m not attracted to, think that I was possibly interested or viewing them too many times.
So to me, the Discover page , picks of the day and Based on your recent likes are a waste of time as they repetitive and to view one woman that might worth a look you have to make hundreds of women think that you’ve looked at their profile when all I’ve done is swipe left because I don’t like the look of them . So they are not views at all.
My location makes this site difficult enough as it is, without attracting women that I’m not interested in, just because this site has made me produce the photo of another woman, counting it as a view, when this site put the photo in front of me in the first place, not me choosing a woman I want to look at!

Version 8.67.0
You can’t say anything in your profile without them removing it, I have no idea why multiple versions of mine were removed when they contained no swear words or anything remotely risky. They don’t tell you why it’s removed so you can’t amend it, it just goes and you have to start again. Top 100 picks of the day are basically the same profiles recycled every few days so nothing new and if someone is in your top 100 picks it counts as a profile view so some men that were too persistent kept coming up in my picks and thought I was still visiting their profile causing them to become even more persistent. I think this is dangerous as some people on the site do not take no for an answer. You can only read one message at a time when someone makes contact and are forced to make a decision if you want to chat before you can see any of the other message contacts. Why? I basically felt I had no control over my profile or where I went on the site and was rushed into making decisions about who I wanted to talk to. The site has gone downhill from 10 years ago when I used it. Not impressed.

Having decided to bite the bullet and pay for an app to seek some form of meaningful romantic relationship I opted for match. I paid for a 6 month subscription (£60). The interface is pretty basic, notifications don’t come through and to add to this the basic search criteria doesn’t stick. For me I was looking to date semi locally and the app then recommended people all over the country over 500 miles away. Most of the accounts on there are people who have signed up to a free trial and even if you message them they can’t respond rendering it a very limited pool of people to match and talk with. Whilst I was sceptical at the beginning I was willing to give it a go, in hindsight I would have saved the membership fee and would have been better off on a competitor app which allows you to match and chat for free

Bit of a nightmare.

I don’t have any confidence in the app to be a genuine reflection of what’s happening. The ‘views’ section doesn’t seem to actually be who has looked at your profile, people keep popping up who (after asking them) haven’t looked at my profile and I’m appearing in theirs even though I’ve not looked.
Views should mean deliberately opening and looking at your profile. I’m really not sure what it means.
It’s feature set is weak. Uber and eBay have feedback sections that help avoid wasting time with poor quality people. Match could do the same. Score people on whether they have ignored first contact after matching would be a good place to start. ‘This person has responded to 10% of first contact messages’ would be the equivalent of an Uber ‘Jonny one star’. I’d not waste my time with them. Basically it’s just a money extraction process. Flag up paid profiles over free ones would help work out who is taking it seriously. Show activity in more detail. This person is regularly active compared to this person is only active once a month or hasn’t been seen since last year.

Match used to be good a few years ago when I tried it, but in the modern day, so few people use match and you will be very lucky to even speak to someone, let alone get a date!
The reply rate is around 5% so I assume most profiles are inactive or they can’t reply without paying for a subscription.
Recently from the search tool, match removed ‘active in the last 7 days’. This would only be done if the recently active count was very low.
I cancelled my subscription already, match has lost its way, I guess far more people are on Tinder, Hinge, Bumble etc, not match.

Despite earlier success it seems Match are more concerned with your purse or wallet. While the system is simple to use, the facilities available in the app are lacking especially for the costs involved. There is no way to upload photos or update profile from the phone.
When it comes to usage, you have to pay (fair enough) but then you have to pay again to get more views or use the seemingly better tailored affiny.
It would also be nice to just be able to like photos - from an appreciation standpoint. And to be able to unlike profiles clicked accidentally. Although if that’s bought a smile then it’s not all bad.

Been on the site for well over a year and have been left feeling like it’s been a waste of time and money. To make matters worse I found this site uses some sort of algorithm to make it look like women have visited your profile when in fact they haven’t. This has on more than one occasion led to embarrassment on my part after I subsequently messaged the person only to receive the reply stating the fact they had no idea why it was saying they had visited. I even saw one ladies profile saying this exact thing and apologising to those who were affected. I have to ask WHY do you have such a thing happening it’s wrong on many levels.
Very disappointed in Match for many reasons but the deceit I found here was the final straw and I don’t think I’ll be paying another penny.

This website is full of criminals trying to con you. My experience is that I was a target for criminals. They are using the site to try and get your personal information. They are also trying to get you to give them nude photos or videos. They build a rapport, tell you everything you want to hear. Then try and get you to switch to another messaging app. It’s not just criminals using fake photos. They are also pretending to be actual people. So using their real photos so they can video chat with you and have phone calls. Then once they have gained your trust getting your phone number. They are also able to figure out with very little information your actual address. They do this using the electoral roll or from census data. Be extremely careful if you do decide to use this site!!!

I have tried at least 6 dating sites in the past 6 months, some have been very disappointing with multiple fake profiles. However, with match I have been talking to real people and having long an extended chats. The match process is also very well thought out and effective: if you like someone and they like you, it’s a highlighted as a match and on you go. You are shown their photo and the number of things you have in common, if you like what you see you press the like button. I dont think that any dating has such a simple and effective way of sorting out. The cost of match is also much lower than any of the more advertised dating services, it’s a no brainer!!

I joined with a six month membership and still hope Match delivers but it's not a totally happy experience so far in terms of the app itself (the website has its own drawbacks too). On the good side there do seem to be a reasonable number of active members on Match which creates at least the possibility of meeting someone. On the bad side the UI is awful and very annoying to navigate, and the search facility extremely clunky. It's impossible to remove likes you are not interested in or unlike to correct fat finger mistakes you make. This is especially annoying when your likes start filling up with unavailable profiles or profiles without photos. A very serious defect is that edits you make to your profile are not automatically updated in the app unless you log out and log in again or delete the app and reinstall.
The impression I have is that Match trades on its reputation as the biggest global dating site but there has not been a corresponding investment in the algorithm or the interface. So far slightly disappointed.

My problem with this app is even if you both like each other you can’t send each other a message that’s why I prefer Pof because you can send as many messages as you want I think it should be more like tinder sort of so if you both like each other you can send each other a message but you can’t unless you both do that does seem pretty fair it would be nice if they could make the whole thing free but they have to make money somewhere it would be a nice small little change I joined up yesterday two people likes me so far and yet I’ve liked them to but I can’t send them a message which is a bit annoying like so please sort that out and it would also be nice if you could see who viewed your profile without having to pay for it or maybe it could be like badoo in the sense you can send a couple of messages once a day to different women other than that it’s okay

This has to be one of the worst dating apps around, and from such a prominent name.
The app itself works fine from a technical and UI standpoint...however that’s where the positives end.
There’s barely any free functionality, you have to take out an expensive subscription for the app to be even remotely useful... and even when you do subscribe the quality of people and profiles is really abysmal; tons of old and inactive profiles also.
Once subscription ends, you lose the ability to message users you were previously chatting to or matched with, and cannot even view their profiles!
Steer well clear and instead use one of the plethora of far better and free dating apps.

I subbed 3 weeks ago despite a mix of reviews. I was basically disillusioned with other algorithm driven, excessively expensive or clinical swipe sites, and I’m pleasantly surprised. Have tried Match before but it was quiet then. Now it’s a hive of activity. Matching with local people easily. Lots of messages daily and the amount doesn’t change after you sub like many other apps. Haven’t come across any fake profiles yet. Definitely people more interested in something serious and not hookups. Would recommend. Also the sub was not expensive.

Not impressed with this site. Paid for 6 months but a week in it became apparent that it’s just not as functional or active as some of the free sites. Hate the fact that people’s ethnic preference is visible but you have to read their entire profile first only to discover that you do not fall into their preferred ethnic group. Very, very bad taste. Why not advance the app so that it actually selects matches according to your preference, as is the case with even the free apps. That way you are spared the embarrassment of feeling rejected or insulted. I’m also convinced that the matches or ‘likes’ are actual ‘bots - not real people as they never materialise. No initial ice breaker- nothing!
I have 5 months left but seriously considering going back to the free site with actual real people that show interest and you are able to start real communication.
Do not waste your money on this site!

The app provides a list of 100 profiles daily for you to search through however most of these profiles state criteria that does not match me Eg: what age they’re looking for, if they want children or not, if they tolerate smoking or not. Pretty significant factors so why suggest them to me if they’re clearly not a match.
Also when you search based on criteria, most of the profiles found have not been online in a month, suggesting they’ve probably met someone. This makes it seem like there’s more availability thAn there really is and for a while I’d wasted my time messaging profiles that were never going to reply. Like it’s not hard enough already being a male.
Easy things to fix but I’ve no doubt that they won’t be changed as they’ll reveal just how limited the available, Matching, pool really is - kind of ironic considering it’s called Match

I bought a month of Match and was shocked to find basic features like age range warranted another charge of £6.90. Why?? This is free on other apps like Tinder and Bumble and so it should be, it’s a basic right on a dating app especially for young women like myself. I was having men double my age and OVER viewing my profile and sending me messages so I had no choice but to pay the extra charge which stopped the messages. However the viewing of my profile continued. I am 27 and I was having men in their 50s, 60s and even 70s viewing my profile. I feel absolutely disgusted and did not feel safe on this app. I cancelled the automatic renewal the day after I purchased match and after a couple of days I felt so violated that I took down all of my photos, however I still got bombarded with emails from match. Funny that when I emailed them for a refund and never got a response. I then complained on their social media pages; still a big fat nothing. I paid nearly £30 for a few days of match and I want my money back!!

I have used this app and believe it or not I did find a partner, so it did work for me.
I have now returned and see it is the same old same old lots of viewers but no takers.
To subscribe to match do not subscribe through the match app instead go on line and subscribe through the on line site as to unsubscribe is easier and also stop the direct debit with your bank to ensure match cannot access your cash.
So I’ve returned seems I was wanted only to go Halfs on the rent, anyway that’s by the by.
I’ve been back since November 2019 and the same women who stared at my profile last time are still here doing what? Yes staring at my profile there still here just looking no contact no reply just staring nothing else.
Wanting me to either pay to go incognito or just to waste my 10 messages a day so I have to pay for more. I know now, that the ITV investigation has some truth to it as in people paid to contact members or just to Entice me to pay for a subscription month after month.
I deleted all the starers even blacklisted all of my viewers only to see them return on my viewed me list how can this be is a bot at play here?
Anyway I have serious reservations and will not be using anymore of theses so called sites, I think I’ll go out into the real world.

Paid for a six month subscription at the turn of the year just before “the busiest Sunday if the yer”. Turned out to be very few people of interest on the site. Put a very minimal search criteria and reached the bottom within an hour.
Can’t ignore people that you’ve already viewed without blocking them which actually appears to them. Too over the top. This means that you will click on the same people not remembering you’ve clicked on them before and with people getting notifications that someone has viewed your profile makes numerous people look like lurkers which gives a sense of unease when you’re not sure if you’ve clicked before.
Based on the people that have viewed my profile it averages around my age when it’s a common trend that girls on average like older guys and vice versa. This indicates that there is something wrong with either the suggestion mechanism or the default search settings. Get people viewing my profile that are tens or even hundreds of miles away.
Close on useless. Tempted to bin the app despite having 5 1/2 months to run on it. The free apps have more interesting people on them and better basic functionality.

I have been on match on and off, at first when I started, I have had a good match. Then back again after few years, met few but wanted a good match but here is much much better than other webs or apps that most are fake people.
I’m going to give it 4 starts because; even if it’s good to date but still match have so many profiles that people haven’t been on it few months. Maybe match customer service need to do some different plan to this people who don’t use their accounts more than 3 months to be cancelled.
Happy matching guys and all the best :)

So I deactivated my account after looking on how to stop subscription which I had to go on my iOS to deactivate it which was not active and no sign of it on my subscription on my iPhone! Well today I have billed £59 for something I no longer use! And was taken from PayPal (which does not state on how to stop subscriptions) spoken with PayPal and because it’s not eligible for customer protection they will not honour the refund! Emailed several times to match and given correct info the number that’s given to call them does not work! I’m not a happy customer and I’m hoping this will be resolved quickly! And I get a refund as it was taken from my account today at 9am. Spoken with my bank and they advised that I have to speak to match I think this is wrong to bill a customer who had deactivated their account and no longer using it.

The matching criteria quite shallow. You can’t search on religion/ belief system. Match thinks breathing is a more important criteria in a relationship. Difficult to search for a partner in a different area than yourself. A problem when you want to relocate. Difficult to reset and change age criteria as well. I have a feeling it’s built on Old fashion belief system what’s important in a relationship. It’s Not an app for the more aware.

I got advice to get in touch after this review to customer service but they just gave me the same advice as they always do, which doesn’t work. They have not come back to me either. Just to make it look nice on this review field.

One of the more decent sites but...

Match in my view, is more user friendly than eHarmony but there’s too many fake matches. For example, if you click on a match that viewed you today, quite often they’ve not been on site for more than 3 months, or when you click a profile their physical preferences, hair, race etc is completely opposite to yours, or they have just one photo in their profile.
The new ‘your profile is proving popular today...’ is also annoying. Before you’d get four notifications informing you that someone has viewed your profile. You still get the four same notifications plus the so called your profile is popular notification.
Overall, a decent site so far - the site is better than the phone app.

App is pretty bad

The app is so buggy. I will get an email that I’ve received a message and then when I go into the app I have to refresh it a load of times and go in and out of the app before it appears. Then it will crash and go onto another part of the app. Sometimes will then have to repeat this process. I have the same problem on the mobile browser.
Also, there doesn’t seem to be an option to unlike someone? It’s easily accidentally done that you like someone but if you don’t mean to I can’t see a way to change that.
The distance is also incredibly inaccurate. I had someone from Paris and Dubai come up!! I get maybe they have to put others in outside of your distance if not enough people come up but surely I don’t have to travel to another continent!
Also, even though I’ve turned notifications on the app, they don’t come up. Several people who I’ve spoken to on there say the same happens to them too.
Hopefully these things get fixed so I can actually use the app properly.

What is the difference between this application and EA?

After using the app for awhile I have noticed it is potentially very good. However annoyingly you actually have to pay at least around £30 to see how has an interest in you, which would be one of the main features of this application and you have to pay an ludicrous amount of money to use it. Now I'm not a judge but I Think that paying £30 for a month or paying around £90 for 6 months. I can easily see the scale economy here, however that's a bit ridiculous. Check for a FULL YEAR membership in Xbox live or PlayStation plus is £40.
Although I do you have an idea on how to make this app a tad bit better; Will be good to add these pointers that symbolise must haves? But of course I would recommend a limited amount of pointers.

DEAD APP - please read - Don’t even bother.

You are wasting your time if you get this app. first of all, to even message somebody, you have to subscribe by paying £30 a month, basically FORCING you to pay. This isn’t the worst part by the way.
So by the time i paid for 1 month, i thought if i get a date or 2 then maybe its worth it.
I would see myself as a decent looking man, i know where about my standards are.
Let me add that I use TINDER & BUMBLE, i get a lot of matches and dates on there, so i know i can get interest from girls.
Ive been on match for about 3 weeks, and guess what? Not one bit of interest, you know why? Cause the people that sign up use it for about a few days and leave their profiles open and never use it again, its full of useless dead profiles, i have message so many women around 30km from where i am, i think i have messaged about 200, at this point im absolutely desperate to get one match now.
Heres something funny.... It gives you a feature that tells you who looks at your profile. Out of 200 girls, guess how many of them checked my profile after sending them a message?....... about 3!!!!!
For the money i paid its an absolute disgrace. Until they make changes, this app will forever be DEAD.
Dont waste your time, dont waste your money, check other dating sites out, you will not find love here.

Wishing I hadn’t subscribed

I’ve paid for 6 months subscription on the recommendation of an press article which said Match was one of the best dating sites for successful matches.
However I am frustrated as the app says I have messages but I go to the emails and there are no new messages. Some profiles I suspect are old or redundant as the individuals never seem to be active. People have messaged me from 150 miles away and don’t seem to realise I’m that far away but I have entered my location.
The email messaging in particular seems like I am wasting my time messaging people who are actually not paid up members (so they can’t reply) or are not active. I would like to know if someone is subscribed. On tinder you can tell who is a gold member.
Overall totally underwhelmed. Fitness singles is better as is tinder and ok cupid.

Not worth it

Decided to take dive and shell out £30 for a month to see what, if anything, the experience is like. Yes you can pin point your types and that’s all good. It has all the features of all the other apps. But really the main thing I was looking for was less ghosting on conversations and more serious people. What I got was the same thing, but with the difference of most of the women i was being matched with were older despite filters being set. Match did nothing but the same but with the added BS of their match system, which frankly no one gives a crap about. Save your money folks. Match is not worth the fee to entry. You could get the same and cheaper experience with okc.

Just ludicrous

I will give it 2 stars for functionality but that's about it. Think I used it for 2 days. I couldn't message anyone, when I received a message I couldn't read it. Couldn't wink at anyone either, all I could do was add to favourites, so for that one message I got and couldn't read, that may have been my true love will now be left to the ignorance of consumerism. Far too many rules and regulations with being a free non paying member. Seems like this dating business is a real money maker that I should invest in. I will not recommend any app or site that wishes to make an extortionate amount of money off lonely single, separated or widowed people, it's just infuriating. I have been on cheaper better sites long ago that I shall just take my chances with. Also you cannot deactivate your account unless you ring up someone in London at the cost of your phone bill. Says it all really.

Pretty good but bit buggy

I really like the site and there’s a reasonable amount of fairly local women in my age group to potentially chat with. Its instinctive to use, and the shuffle feature is quite fun. My favourite things is quite a nice little addition to just the profile.
It’s not 5 stars as I get false message notifications, and emails telling me I’ve had, like 7 messages or so, when actually I’ve had none. As an average looking bloke, I find I get maybe 1 response for every 10 I send, so it’s demoralising to get false message notifications.
But overall, it’s a good app, a good product and yes, I have got dates!

Not bad but could be better!

Been on and off this dating site for a number of years now and only had 1 date, whether that’s due to lack of men my age group on the dating site or whether I’m pretty ugly, I don’t know!
In terms of the app on the mobile, it’s not bad but could be made much better. It’s fairly user friendly and some nice features such as the shuffle, wink and being able to block or report unwelcome attention.
The app could be made better by:-
- Don’t like it if I tick someone in the shuffle that they end up in my favourites.
- Allowing the user to edit any part of the text in the profile without having to delete parts so you read the end bit.
- being able to delete searches saved
- distance of a profiles being more accurate (several people live within 10 miles of me yet match states distance as 50 miles).
- shuffle sometime has very limited number of profiles.
- shuffle offers profiles that I don’t wish to be considered in my age group I.e. way too young or too old.
- the cost of the app makes it expensive when you can only allow 10 messages per day. Sometime I don’t want to be rude so reply even if just to say not my type, but it’s used my allowance making me appear rude & ignorant if I don’t respond.
- may not use any messages for several days but then may need more another day.
-should be easier to cancel subscription.
Ok, well I think I’ve covered everything. I shall live in hope at finding a date!

Worse compared to other apps

The technical part of the app for iOS is rather poor - it doesn’t have many core functions that the website has plus it freezes for no reason and you need to contact someone to change your current location, when trying to upload pictures from the app there is no way to exit this page, you need to close the whole app and reopen again to go back to the home page? The concept - I’d rather have my profile restricted for views and messaging only to the people who fall under the age bracket I’ve chosen, there are too many questions that people are usually asking anyway when they start a conversation

The best dating website, but expensive.

I've used Match on and off a few times and tried a number of dating websites. Out of all of them, I feel I have the best chance of meeting someone on Match. This is mostly because it is well advertised and because it isn't free.
Free websites attract all the wrong people and their users just don't take it seriously as a result. Not to mention endless fake profiles.
The Match website, although an expensive service in my opinion, does appear to offer your best chance of meeting someone.
It's pretty easy to use, but I don't think there are enough people on the site, though still more than other dating websites.
If it was cheaper and more people used the site, it would get five stars from me.
I do think Match should make it clearer that your subscription auto renews unless you cancel it a couple days before it renews.
If you write a message to someone when using the phone app (iphone for me) make sure you write it outside of the Match app as when scrolling through a written message you write in the app, Match deletes it due to a bug.
Write it outside of the Match app, then copy and paste it into the Match message window before sending.
