Review: not worth it
My experience with e-harmony is also negative. I have tried it on three separate occasions, because I was lured into the prospect of thinking "this time it will be better." It never was better... I suspect as the previous poster said, that they keep inactive profiles on their website to create this illusion that there are "thousands upon thousands" of people you could match to at any one time. But I suspect most of the profiles are from accounts that have expired long ago--or at least, you don't get a response when you attempt to initiate conversation with most people you talk to.
I also worry that dating sites like these use fake profiles of "attractive" people who will send you an e-mail 1 or 2 days before your membership is about to expire, to lure you into renewing your membership and paying additional money. Then, after you renew it, you discover the person that was talking to you earlier no longer is talking to you...
Forget it I won't use these guys again.
