I can’t believe some of you people really don’t have a handle on your finances and you just blame “Chemistry” for fraudulently taking your money. My gosh. I’ve belonged to these types of sites on and off and they are all the same. You HAVE TO make sure and cancel property and then you won’t be charged further. Plain and simple. The above comment from “neva”. My gosh, you’re just dumb for not realizing what it is you realized after a substantial about of time. That’s so stupid. And then you blame Chemistry. You discovered it after 5 years? I’d discover something after a month. Take accountability for your lack of knowing whats going on.

I found this site’s subscription policy to be fraudulent. Make sure you read the fine print which explains that your fee will be automatically withdrawn from whatever credit card you give them, unless you go through some major hoops. Simply not renewing doesn’t do it. I discovered 5 years after I did not renew my subscription that chemistry.com had withdrawn 150 odd dollars from my account every 6 months, to the tune of about 1500.00! When I contacted them about their mistake they refuse to reimburse me even though my account had clearly not been active all of that time. I consider this a scam. All they agreed to give me was a part of the payment for the most recent 6 month period.

I feel robbed violated. I cannot afford to simply give hard earned money away. Do not use this service.

Too bad I didn’t see this website before.
I was looking for it but was not persistent enough I guess. D***! The chemistry.com is a scheme, waste of time and money.
First and most disgusting – they let you choose one of three subscription options – 1 month, 3 and their best deal 6! Then the plan is renewed FOR YOUR CONVENIENCE!
Needless to say all my attempts contacting proposed matches were unanswered. The chemistry.com site won’t solve any problem but will create more. Guaranteed!

I’ve emailed over 20 matches and in over a weeks time not one response. I have not had any reaction from ANYONE! My thoughts are that the site just doesn’t function properly. If men paid to be a member of this site, you would think they would at least check if someone had emailed them and would have responded. I’m not looking for quantity, I can just log in the POF.com if I want that. But nobody appears to answer their emails at all. So it makes me wonder if the emails are even going out??? I’ve even sent the little games out to all of may matches and they all just sit there “Waiting for a response.” I just can’t believe this many guys would pay for this membership and then do nothing with it. And please, I am height/weight proportional, have plenty of pics posted, don’t have small kids and find myself responding to some pretty unattractive guys as a test and not one single response from person. I emailed chemistry.com asking what’s up? and no response from them either. I’m just perplexed??????

I agree with much of what has been said. During the time I’ve subscribed to the site I’ve probably received about 80 “matches.” I live in Maryland and many were as far away as Kentucky and New York. I suspect that the vast majority are not active profiles. In addition, so far only one person has even “noticed” my profile. I find it hard to believe that if the site functions as it supposed to that only one person has seen my profile over the course of several months. I have at least looked at the majority of those that I was sent. This leads me to believe that my profile is not being sent out to others in proportion compared to the amount I’m being sent. Either that or being sent out to inactive “members” that seem to constitute the majority here. I hope I don’t have any difficulty canceling my membership, when it’s done I won’t be renewing. Besides that, the matching criteria and questions they ask are stupid. What does the length of someones index finger have to do their persona? I’d love for “Dr” Helen Fisher to explain that one. You might as well have things in common with your “matches” like “meet so and so, they also enjoy breathing air and drinking water.”

I was charged without notice also and caught it two days after the subscription was renewed without my knowledge. When I called, an overly bubbly rep said she spoke with her supervisor and they agreed to refund all but 4.04 of my money. This was to happen within 72 hours. She informed me I would receive an email verifying my refund. This was 48 hours ago. No email as of yet, and no refund. The only email I did received states that Chemistry does not give partial refund. The rep also provided a very unusual name, and when I asked her to spell it for me, stated that her name would be in the email verifying the refund (the same email I have not received).

LOTS of matches BEFORE I joined, then far fewer after. Matches seemed ridiculous, were so far away or clearly did not match my interests. Not enough chatter on the web to warn customers about this site!

I thank you for taking the time to post this. I joined Chemistry.com three weeks ago and am frustrated to the point of screaming with how bad the program works. I have reported twice that I am getting no feedback from any potential matches. Both times the bored rep told me to post more pictures of myself to encourage responses. So I did- still no responses. The program is defective. It can’t be that 50 guys all thought I was not their type. Plus, even the ones they matched me with did not write back.
I was feeling like I was too old or something was wrong with me, but it is nice to know it is Chemistry. com that is screwed up so badly!

Agreed with Alex and the general consensus: Skip it.

The personality type quiz is accurate, but the matching service itself (what you actually pay for) is expensive and contains far too many “dead” profiles. You will be matched with people who no longer use their accounts, who may be hundreds of miles away, who lack any photos whatsoever, and who may have potentially huge conflicting interests.

Good idea, but poorly executed.

7/14/11 Chemistry.com charged my credit card without my knowledge. I have asked for a refund and given them 3 days to respond. I will update this comment after I see their response to my written request for the $170.45 they charged me without notification or authorization.

SUCKS…….SuckS…….Sucks
Sent 100 messages but i got 3 only.
Chemistry isn’t working. I checked no kids but they found someone who has kids.
If i were you, i’m not gonna spend money here.
Fortunately, I spent 49 for 3mons by promotion.
Trust me, chemistry doesn’t work as you think. Joining is wasting time.
