Christian Mingle is garbage. I have experienced scams like every other person that has been on the site, recently something more seditious has been occurring. I'll send a message to someone and it will not reach her. I've opted in to the notifications on my phone. I‘ll receive a message banner saying that someone sent me a message, then I'll go to the app to see that there is no message. Also, I'll send a message and it will not populate in the text… to be clear I was a fully paid up member. I don't trust the app or the website, I'll never give another dollar to it or its parent company.
It's a typical scam site with mostly fake profiles and catfishers. They pretend to be Christians but in fact they are con artists from Africa and other countries. All the women I met there were genuine. Christianmingle was nothing like this. It's a big scam. Don't believe its name!
I can't cancel this service unable to talk to anyone who works for them. This is a scam do not give them your money. They are thieves. "Christian" people don't act like that.
No one active. The few who are do not reply and aren't looking for anything serious. Did not find anyone worth my time. Help, support, and remove profile buttons do not work. There's a chat bot but you never get to a real person. Support is nonexistent. Expensive app with nothing to gain from it. Good luck getting your money back.
I see there are girl checking me out. And I don't have my picture upload. I want to write them back but you cannot Until you are a I think called a goldmenber you are paying less than 20 buck a month I am not sure it dummthan you can talk to them. I feel is not right for the girl to pay you are trying to nice but you can do it until you payp a monthy fee
I've tried twice. Wasted a couple hundred dollars and I'll I got was hacked twice and an attempted scam. Customer service doesn't exist. Everything takes a week+ to approve. And no one in customer service ever did respond to the scams or hacks. Save your money and protect your info- don't use this site. They don't know what they are doing for security.
I've been on this site for about four or five days and I've received smiles from women that are supposedly living in the USA but I'm looking at the photos and I can see that they've stolen someone's photos from Instagram or Facebook and most of these fake $#*! profiles are coming from $#*!hole countries out of west Africa, third world countries like the Philippines and Thailand. I advise men and women to be cautious when using this site and also check the photos, if the $#*! has only one photo on her profile photo then it's a scam or ask her if she's living in the USA, that site is full of scam artist. Trust me because I see it everyday and then the $#*! will remove her profile after I call them out on it.
The BBB gave the site an F rating. Please look up. The website would not let me terminate my membership and kept putting me in a loop. It's almost impossible(or impossible) to get a hold of an administrator when you need help. It turned out to be a nightmare. Actually more than that, I consistently ran into men who were wolves in sheep's clothing. I'm amazed men are willing to spend money to go on a Christian dating site to hunt Christians so to speak. I ended up being totally traumatized by men who seemed more like they should be on another dating site looking for sex. A free one at that but chose to pay money to be on Christian Mingle to meet women who want godly marriages. The bible says if the devil can disguise himself as an angel of light why can't his workers. I paid for a 6 month subscription but had my bank block Christian Mingle from taking out any automated renewals fees. I couldn't get into the settings on Christian Mingle to delete my credit information in addition to terminating my account. It kept me going in circles trying to get in. My advice is to try a safer site like EHarmony or a Christian Match maker ( if that even exists) Always pray first that God would lead you in the right direction. Their is also a prayer on-line about praying against counterfeit spouses for Christians. Just look up prayers against counterfeits. I read this prayer at least 5 times one day. The next time I did a telephone video with this man I met on CM his true intentions came out. He wanted sex and his Christian walk was weak or non-existent but he came across as a sincere man of God in his profile. I'm glad that prayer helped nip it in the bud. Both Christian men and women really need to be careful going on these sites. Be wise as a snake and innocent as a dove. God Bless.
Many will ask for personal information. I have asked 3 people to give a thumbs up picture after them asking about getting on hangout with google, or a phone number. ALL three stopped communication. Be safe out there!
Zero activity level. I chose J4Dating.com -I'm getting a lot of contacts there and enjoying my communication with beautiful ladies. Now I'm at the point of making a big and important decision, following my heart and choosing my One and Only woman.
So my experience with ChristianMingle was very poor. I'm an average-looking 43 year old man with good income. I sent 80 letters and got 1(!) response. If you value your time and have some self-respect, just use a bigger and more popular dating site and search for a Christian woman there.
Christianmingle is not a true dating site. It's a big scam. Don't believe its name! It's a typical scam site, a giant and evil money-making machine with mostly fake profiles and catfishers.
To my greatest disappointment, I haven't met a truly Christian woman there. Very few women knew the basics of the Bible. Christianmingle doesn't have a large pool of women to choose from, moreover most of them are definitely fake. All the chats there are shallow and dull. You can hardly find a real and smart woman there who will capture your attention. I have n idea why they call themselves ChristianMingle. They operate on dishonest and disreputable business model.
Was looking for people of substance. Found a bunch of fake profiles, scammers, etc. Rarely any new people on there. Did find one nice guy, and we're friends. Thankful for that everyone else sucked. A lot of people use this site who have major life problems because they feel that Christians are more liniment, forgiving, whatever the case. I don't need any more problems. Subscription ends on the sixth then I'm done.
I have tried this about 4 years ago and all it was, was nationwide "smiles". I gave it another try. Same thing. No response from people I contacted and the few and I do mean few emails I received, were either clearly written by someone out of the country trying to sound like here, or they were all coincidently going off that weekend and wanted me to contact them by phone or email. This is a huge waste of money and I'm in process of trying to fight the charges. I think they believe if you're a Christian, you're a patsy and will believe anyone just because they SAY this is a Christian site. DO not waste your money.
Do not use this site! They will not
Protect you. They just want your monthly fee. My father is being unknowingly taken by someone that
Does not
Exist
On their site and they won't look into it, because they don't care. I have proof
That it
Is a scammer and they didn't care. They don't care about you, your happiness or even if
You are a Christian, just the almighty $$.
All of these dating sites are scams to get your money. I'm a 6'4" model, athlete, comedian, look like in my 20's and not a single message. I went to upload several different pictures of mine and they've all been rejected by their "team". The one or two real people are old fat attention seeking single moms hiding behind pictures of themselves from when they were younger and middle aged husbands cheating on their wives. You could find one of the "real ones" in a cheap bar. Not the type of place you'd look for a soul mate.
They operate on completely dishonest non-Christian business model. If you don't want to put your money at risk, use a more reputable site. ChristianMingle is really not what they claim to be. They make money on gullible singles. They want to know your bank card detail so they can put you on automatic renewal. They are nothing more than thieves.
They use bots and totally fake profiles to attract new users to their site and fleece them of their money. Good concept but poor execution.
This site USED to be good. Now it seems the only users active on it are scammers. It actually looks like the site makes deceitful profiles because a profile will sound legit and it will say the user was online today but then if I send a smile or a message to the user, that user does not even show up in the list of those who viewed my profile. I am not a 10 but I am attractive enough that my profile gets looked at.
While connected I get a barrage of smiles sent from men with the username "Mingler..." and no profile picture or significant description, in other words, scammers. Those scammers should not be permitted on the site.
WARNING! WARNING! WARNING!
I have had the WORST online dating experience on this "Christian" site. I would NOT wish this experience on anyone else going forward that's why I'm taking my time to write this review. I joined Christianmingle.com for about a week, i had posted a couple of photos and they all got approved and verified. My profile was set and legit. I began chatting with a few gentlemen but upon login out I couldn't login. I desperately contacted the Christian mingle team via email and got a response from a certain Karol Kowalski.
This individual explained to me politely and i quote: "my account was flagged as possibly fraudulent and that in an effort to protect my security and privacy they have suspended my profile". This individual further stated that they'll be needing my account details (full names, display name, date of birth, present location and email address) to verify my authenticity. I was willing to even make a video call to confirm i am real, and i exist so i provided every detail they asked. In a separate reply this individual further asked for a photo of my National Identity card. You can imagine how invasive this information is, but i really just wanted to login to delete my pictures and deactivate my account personally, so i complied.
At this point it finally dawned on me what was going on, Christian mingle team had no plans of releasing my account. In fact, they were NEVER going to release my account at all.
This was all a scheme, they secure accounts of legitimately existing people, take over the accounts running them to scheme money off innocent people.
PLEASE I BESEECH you, do not fall for this trap. My account is now stuck in this site probably scheming off someone from a 1st world country or who knows who.
If you're planning to join this site, DON'T. Kindly, LEARN FROM ME. You will meet the love of your life on a more legitimate setting.
Take care and God bless!
*******@gmail.com claims to be 57, born in Germany, has two daughters, wife died in a horrific car accident 5 years ago. He is supposedly a Petroleum Engineer that works in the Gulf of Mexico. Sure.
He won't divulge his last name, when and where he graduated from college. It states on his profile Kennessaw University in Georgia. He won't answer direct questions. Red flags for sure!
The next on is Soccerdad using *******@aol.com and he wants a relationship and sends a video of a helicopter taking people to an offshore rig. Really? Deleted him as well.
I'm not even Christian, just made an account as a joke basically. HOWEVER, I can still tell that this is a horrible dating site. Dating sites are problematic but at least try to make the website not totally suck for people who actually want to use it. The set up is bad. The fake accounts (spam s*x bots) are plentiful. I'm not surprised just confused
Answer: I had the same experience! Technically it's the worst site with worthless customer service. I discovered a great platform for meeting Christian ladies https://j4l.com/402007 It's flawless - it's working perfectly technically, their girls are simply too gorgeous for words, both inside and out! I enjoy greatly the company of the women I met there and soon I will meet one of them in person.
Answer: I thought they were a legit website unfortunately they are ripped off!
Answer: I just hit unsubscribe and you really have no choice but to let the time you paid for run out. After I unsubscribed, they sent me an email that I did and I also made sure to remove the credit card they had on file. I only took one month.
