eLove Reviews

    elove interview....

    I was told by the telephone representative that the interview would be about and hour and a half. It was actually four and a half hours with a lot of personal questions about my finances. The interviewer was very nice, but did not address my questions about the cost until 4 hours later. When I politely told the lady that I would have to think about making a purchase of minimum $5,000 to meet 8 men, she used all the personal questions from the interview to tell me that the reason why I'm still single at age 40....as if she has known me her entire life. She continued to point out that finding a mate was not my priority, because if it was I would invest the money. I told her that I NEVER make a purchase of that expense without taking at least 24 hrs to think it over, and would not want a mate who would do so. She insisted that I could afford the expense and it was me not really wanting a relationship. On the way out the door she told me "I'll see you next year". (ie I will still be single). Judge for yourself if you think that is rude....or even cruel. I can not comment on if the expensive service works, as I did not go that far...my gut instincts SCREAMED red flags at the end. As we all have learned time and time again, trust your gut.

    Pros
    They listen to what you want and encourage you not to settle.

    Cons
    Offensive interviewer who used your weaknesses or disfortunes in life as a weapon to get you to PAY the money.

    Match is the BEST!!!

    Pros
    None

    Cons
    Expensive
    worthless

    The Customer service reps are BS

    After recently talking to their rude and pushy custome service reps and reading some of the unbiased reviews of eLove, I think I will chance it on my own. They wouldn't even tell me how much their memberships are over the phone which caused me to become suspicious.

    Pros
    None

    Cons
    Alot of hype. I told them I wasn't interested and they didn't want to take "NO" for an answer. Their customer service reps are pushy and obnoxious.

    Do Not Waiste Your Money with eLove!

    eLove membership is the worst way to spend your hard earned money. It is no better, in fact, it is worse than online dating sites such as eHarmony, Match.com and you pay 100 times more for the same individuals you can selectively come across the internet sites if you have the time and patience. You have hundreds of individuals to choose from and there is no limit on the number of individuals you can get in contact with. eLove has definite limits depending on which package you choose, however, it is around $400 for each referral!

    This is how the membership is structured:

    - $1,595 for a one-hour interview in person with a consultant, a so-called background check, personality assessment and paperwork processing which by the way is NON-REFUNDABLE!

    The least expensive membership entitles you to 8 referrals at $425 each. You don't get a picture of your referral and the description is very sketchy and general. You will have no clue as to who you will be meeting.

    You can do better on Match and other respectable online sites and will have a much broader choice of people . The caliber of people on eLove is just as diverse as online dating sites. eLove's business model is simply to pretend that there is strong scrutiny of members' background and personal service when in reality, neither exists.

    I urge you to save or spend your money somewhere else. DO NOT give your money to this shady organization.

    Pros
    NONE

    Cons
    - Very expensive for what they offer -- $5000 is the cheapest membership package for 8 referrals (whether they are good matches or not!)
    - No picture (eventhough they take a picture of you at the interview)
    - Cost of eLove mebership does not warrant better caliber of people referred to you
    - Matchmakers work offsite in a call center and have no idea who their clients are
    - Very rude telemarketers/matchmakers
    - No one at eLove will give you their last name or phone number so you feel as if you are dealing with a very shady organization

    Thank,s Elove

    I deposited $5000.00 with Elove, when elove was unable to find the women of my dreams Elove returned the total amount, thank,s to Elove.

    eLove is working well for me

    I signed on as a client with eLove and Cupid's Coach in December of 2011 and it's been a very positive experience -- I've met three men thus far and they've all been appropriate introductions. I've had second dates with two of them and one I've got a third date scheduled for this coming weekend with the one who's my favorite.

    Pros
    Professional, service oriented matchmakers and dating coaches, responsive, caring, sincere. They're good people.

    Cons
    None really. It's not inexpensive to hire a matchmaker, but it's so much more effective than online dating, which to me was far too random.

    More Sales than Matchmaking

    I have no idea how they got my name & number, but one evening I was cold-called by a charming girl named Taylor, who made an appointment for me to see Maria in Walnut Creek the following day. There, I filled out what seemed to me (I've got an advanced degree in psychology) a superficial personality & preference test, and answered questions significantly aimed at determining my financial means. Maria's pitch, though she testily denied it, was classic hard-sell, and when it was clear that my answer to which of the 3 plans ($4K, $5K & $8K) I preferred was going to remain "none", she offered me a complementary membership, asking only that I pay a $100 background check fee. Fine.

    A few days later, Christina, "my matchmaker", called. I could hear other "matchmakers" in the background: it was a "boiler room". She verified that I had a complementary membership, and asked if I had paid for the background check. Why would she be calling to offer me a match unless she had the results of my clean check in hand? She admitted never having met the woman she had matched me with (and I knew she'd never met me), so all my matchmaker knew about either of us was from a summary she got from the "closer" (Maria, in my case, who she probably also had never met). This is not "personal matchmaking" in any meaningful sense. I pressed her for a copy of the background check, and actually got it by email the next day ? it was a screen capture from publicdata.com, a free sex offender and criminal background checking website.

    I got the impression that, in my age range, it's mostly women who are paying the big fees, while men are in effect the commodities sold, and that by accepting an eLove match (which, given their methodology and motivations would likely be a waste of time), I would merely be helping them extract money from these women, which I do not plan to do.

    Pros
    Even a random meeting could possibly work out.

    Cons
    Dishonest, though no doubt legal.

    Married at last, Huge thanks to my personal matchmaker at elove

    It was a long journey and after 9 introductions and 2 years I finally married my dream guy that I found through elove. Not all were dreams, mostly nightmares as I just couldn't find mister right in the first year. Year 2 was a blessing - meeting my husband about a year ago and tying the not last weekend. Just got back from my honeymoon in PR and wanted to say special thanks to elove for fulfilling my dream.

    Pros
    Im married what else can I say

    Cons
    Wish it took less time to finally find my man!

    Elove-Scam

    I would like to recommend other people who is seriously looking for partners, please don't fall in this scam/trap.

    In four months I got two refferals. And my feeling is I was fooled. They are not serious in sellecting candidate for you, not respect your preference either. The persons are not even close to who I'm looking for. I have a feeling I'm wasting my time and money. Lots of money.

    Pros
    None

    Cons
    Everything about Elove

    I've never been happier.

    After nine months and three dates, I found the love of my life. He is just like the picture I painted for my relationship specialist. It was almost like I placed my order with her and she found him. This company helped me cut through all the jerks and cheaters. Although the first two men were not "the one", they were all very professional, successful, down-to-earth men who were in the same stage of life as I am. They all had common goals and likes. I regret not joining their program sooner.

    Pros
    Got to speak one-on-one with a professional matchmaker. She really got to know me and my wants and needs and then used that knowledge to find men who were compatible for me. The process was fascinating.
    AND the safety! Background checks and meeting everyone personally.
    AND getting to approve my matches first. That way it wasn't like a blind date. I knew what they looked like and a little about them before agreeing to meet them.

    Cons
    Absolutely none.

    elove to the rescue. Happy Again!

    Over 2 years ago my wife and I of 15 years have split up and after trying many online dating sites to start over again (they all failed) I decided to hire a personal matchmaker on my quest for a new beginning. I tried Its Just Lunch but was getting introduced to girls not interested in me. Then I saw elove matchmaking and decided to give them a shot. After working with the elove reps and giving them every possible detail of what I was really looking for they finally introduced me to someone that I hit it off with big time. Hopefully this will last for a while.

    Pros
    Love speaking with real people to help me find me a compatible mate.

    Cons
    Not sure yet - I guess if it doesnt work out Ill have one

    Caveat emptor

    Unfortunately eLove is unable to follow through with providing the qualified appropriate match referrals sold to the client buyer.

    Membership services compels the clients to be patient while holding and using their membership $ while refusing to make remedy by refund for lack of follow through results.

    I regret I did not see their reviews prior to throwing my $ away here.

    = travesty, misrepresentation, fraud, pie in the sky, betrayal of good faith / hope

    Consumers Beware. You will have buyers remorse. Do not purchase or trust this business. You will soon feel like a fool if you do.

    Thanks to Elove.com - I got ENGAGED on V-Day!!

    Just wanted to say I am so thankful to elove matchmaking for finding me my true love. It was a long 2 year journey and 8 different guys they matched me with. Finally the 8th one is going to be my keeper as he gave me a ring on valentines day and ask me to marry him! Im so excited! :)

    Pros
    Got to work one on one with a real person to finally find my perfect match! Even though the first 7 ended up no where they were all sincere and I felt very safe knowing they all had criminal background checks.

    Cons
    TOOK 2 years to find him!! But It was worth the wait. Was a little bit pricey (cost was a few thousand dollars) but I was spending over $100 a month on 2 different online sites that got me zero results.

    scammers

    They conned me out of $4,600. I had one "match"that was terrible. Three other matches that never called, and I was told by my "matchmaker"that she can't take a man by the hand and make him call me. I see where others pay $1,000. a year but I paid nearly 5 times that.

    Pros
    They're No pros just an office full of CONS who need to be in jail.

    Cons
    Everything about eLove.

    I will not be alone this year on Valentines Day! TY elove matchmaking

    So excited about my plans tomorrow night with a guy I met through elove. This will be our third date in the last two weeks which means a lot cause out of the 4 guys that elove has introduced me to not one made it passed the 2nd date. I finally stopped relying on the online dating sites and love the fact that elove does background checks on all members. :)

    Pros
    Safety! Safety! Safety! To many creeps out there and I dont trust anyone. I wish all my dates before elove could have been pre-screened!

    Cons
    The nearest office was 40 miles from me but only had to do that once

    Thank you!

    I am so glad I read the reviews before going down there, Thanks to everyone who took the time to express their opinion; I know now, not to waste my time.

    Finally Happy That Valentines Day Is Here!

    I joined elove matchmaking just about a year ago and though I was getting introduced to a lot of women with the same interests as me none of them really stuck -- finally after my 7th introduction I have met someone that I can finally spend valentines day with - hopefully this will be the first of many V-days with her!

    Pros
    Got to work one on one with a real person instead of viewing tons of profiles online.

    Cons
    Much more expensive than online dating - but the fact that they meet every member in person and do background checks made me feel a lot more comfortable of who I was going out with.

    Horrible

    Not a good experience, I would not recommend it. I waited for about an hour and a half because the sales person was with another client...I could hear her in the room next door and how she was pressuring another lady to get the package. By the time she came into the room it was about 8:30, initially she seemed nice but I knew it was going to change, after about 2.5 hours she showed me the prices, OUTRAGEOUS! When I told her I did not want to commit to anything she started being rude, saying things like who is going to want to date someone with 2 kids, you only have a 1% chance of meeting the person of your dreams. It was 10:45 at night and I felt like I was being interrogated. It's really unfortunate that you disclose personal information with a business that you are suppose to trust and they use it to try and manipulate people. They prey on people's emotions, and are very rude.

    BEWARE of ELOVE

    My experience started out fine...they never gave me prices, but said they wanted to go over the whole thing with me, first. The lady was nice, we had a great conversation. She took profile, gave me questionaires to fill out, was very informative and interested. She seemed on track. But she would not give me prices. We used almost 2 hours of my time and elove's payroll for her time. At the end of the whole ordeal, she finally showed me prices, I was shocked at just under 4000.00 for 1.5 years, and that was only for 12 contacts!! That was the basic package. Okay, I realize when they are hand-matching your profile with another person, there is time involved. (But 4000.00 worth???) She said there was a discount, and in the end, if I paid 200.00 today, I would only have to pay 99.00 a month for the next 1.5 yrs. I said I needed to go home and think about it, and then she was unprofessionally rude. Basically the company would not respect my need to make a wise decision for myself. She was very pressuring and the more she pressured me, the more I shut down. I left feeling humiliated and ashamed for going there, and for being treated they way they do business. It really shook me up that I even went there and was in a situation with a business who really portrayed themselves as up and up, but had absolutely zero respect for me as a customer. It was one of the worst experiences I have ever had. I would love to see them turned into the better business bureau. They are not out there for the customer, and I would like to know why (since they have some 40,000 clients as she said) that they would need to charge so much. But the clincher was not the price as much as the treatment of pushing their package as well as slamming me as a potential buyer.

    Pros
    None. (?????They make you "feel" comfortable. But so does Satan.)

    Cons
    They did not respect me: first repeatedly calling me daily, sometimes twice a day or more, then could not allow me time to make a wise decision for my own life. She expected me to drop everything in my life to get into a contract with them. She treated me totally opposite of the way she started out, then told her boss over the phone that I did a 180. So basically she was lying to him, also. Very, very unprofessional. So scary that I even went there. BE CAREFUL!!

    eLove - Worked for me!

    Thank you to all the eLove matchmakers for introducing me to the love of my life.
    I joined the Rhode Island office and was introduced to a beautiful woman from Connecticut; we?ll be married in Newport this summer.

    She was the fifth woman you set me up with and I knew after the first date we would be together for life. The only question was? did she feel the same about me? She didn?t fall for me as fast as I fell for her but she finally realized I was the one for her.

    Thank you again for all the advice and encouragement you gave me throughout the membership? you changed my life.

    Tom
    Newport, RI

    Pros
    The staff was very friendly and helpful...

    Cons
    Be patient it may take some time?

    I CAN BELIEVE I DID THIS!!!!

    I cannot believe!! I considere myself and educated smart woman. Last night I was pressured and signed up for this costly service. Woke up in the middle of the night, unable to sleep thinking about the money I just spent. Went on line and did something I should have done before doing this. These reviews almost give me a heart attack!!!! I am so frustrated, I read the contract and says I have three days to cancel if I mail the contract certified mail. I am doing it firts thing in the morning and they better return my money.

    I hope this is helpful for others out there, I was a fool and don't feel very proud of me right now.

    Ana

    Hustled....Scam!

    I filled out the questionare via F.B. to check out the site. I then received a follow up phone call from Barbara in Las Vegas. She was very nice to talk to over the phone but when we had our meeting in their offiice, I met with the Director of the Las Vegas Office. She was nice at first, I complied with the personal questinare and filled out the paper work. They wouldn't disclose the fee's of the service until the very end of the meeting. Fee's starting from 2k on up to 12k! YOU HAVE GOT TO BE KIDDING ME! When I declined, the attitude changed from pleasant to SOUR! They gather your personal info from you and will NOT give it back to you. As far as I know, they'll probably sell my personal info to other parties. DON'T FALL INTO THIS TRAP, DON'T WASTE YOUR TIME!

    Pros
    Nice on the initial greet.

    Cons
    Everything else following the actual meeting. Very misleading and intrusive.

    BAD CHOICE

    This company is terrible. They have the worst customer service. I have been in contact with the attorney general's office, but the wheel's of justice turn slowly. I encourage everyone who has been scammed by this business to contact the A.G. office. The more complaints they have the sooner the investigation will get underway. Please call them & tell them how this company does business.

    Pros
    Not a one

    Cons
    There is no one on one relationship like they claim. Bad matches. The matchmakers have to be idiots with some of the matches i recieved.

    Rude and spiteful staff

    I completed the online questionaire thinking it was just another online dating service. They called me and I told them that I was not interested. That was 10 months ago. They call me repeatedly about every two weeks. I have asked them to stop calling and that I was not interested and would never be interested. I asked them to please remove my information from their data bank. They continue to call. I told one person that I would find out what I could do about there repeated phone calls if they did not stop. She laughed at me and told me that there was nothing I could do to get them to stop because I completed the questionaire which gave them permission to call me. I have never been so frustrated in my life. Please stay away from this company. After ten months of trying to get them to stop calling me, I am still receiving calls. I received 3 today! I plan to use every avenue to warn people about this company.

    Pros
    NONE

    Cons
    Repeated phone calls
    Terrible Customer service

    BIG RIP OFF

    E Love is an enormous waste of $$. I was able to get a student price, but that was over 2 grand. All of my matches were losers and were so far a way that a relationship was next to impossible anyway. I asked specifically for NO military, and NO KIDS, what did they send me? Soldiers with kids. I complained and got the same. They got me when I was really ready to have a good relationship and conned me into spending $$ I did not have. When I said it cost too much they had a slick response and kept at me until I wore down and agreed to sehll out the cash. DO NOT USE THIS SERVICE!!!!!!! Dating is difficult as it is, you do not need to spend a ton of $$ to meet losers. You can do that for free.

    Pros
    They find the matches.

    Cons
    Price
    Bad matches
    Poor customer service
