I finally got an email from someone on match.com...
and he's cute, blah blah blah - well guess what, my subscription literally just expired yesterday and now I can't email him back. And I'm not giving those fools at match.com another dime of my money - I've been on there 6 months and have only been contacted a handful of times. Boo.
Re: I finally got an email from someone on match.com...
Boo.
Is there a way to update your profile and maybe put an email address in it (one that you've set up just for these sites)? if so, I'd suggest putting that change at the top of your profile, and then maybe winking at the guy - that might cause him to check out your profile again long enough to see the new info you added.

Could be. It seems strange that I haven't gotten an email in weeks and I'd get one the day before my account expired. Honestly though, I'm over it - the online dating scene blows. I think I might try speed dating again, you should join me!
Maybe some day. No time still.
There was a lawsuit against match a couple of years ago saying that they planted emails to expired accounts to try to get people to rejoin. Not sure what the results were...
Not years ago actually, just last year:

I'm looking around to see what the result was, but I haven't seen anything on a settlement being reached yet.

I just read that article. Very interesting. I hadn't received very much activity at all and then as soon as my subscription expired bam, a few emails from "him" meaning I had to reactivate to find out who "him" was. NO thanks!
This happened to me too. The day before my account was to expire, I got an email from someone seemingly interesting. But, I gave him my email before I let it cancel just in case.
Not a fan of match or online dating.

This happened to me. My account expired. I got an email from a really cute guy who seemed like a great prospect. I stupidly renewed my subscription and guess what??? The guy never emailed me back after I responded to "him." Shocking!!!!
I believe it's completely a scam that Match does.
