I was very disappointed in the manner that the men presented themselves on this site. They are deceitful. I had multiple instances that were something you would never except to happen when dealing with a so call Christian data base. One being dating a guy for one month and he is pressuring you to have sex then his ex girlfriend who isn't even 21 and is 10 years younger than him show up 2 months pregnant. These are the type of men I came across multiple times. These are not good faith Christian men. Then dealing with the website itself was a night mare. I have done dating sites before so I made sure I had unchecked the automatic billing the day I signed up with Christian Mingle. 3 months later there is a charge on my account. I am still trying to get it removed from my bank account but neither Christian Mingle or the Bank is working with me. I didn't have a email that was supposably sent to me but I combed through all my emails and it was never to be found so I have no proof. Christian Mingles answer to me is you get 3...

Do not waste your time with this site. My brief experience is there are not very many members, navigating through the site is choppy at best and when you try to cancel they continue to charge your account.

They do get an A for advertising but an F for everything else. I guarantee you will disappointed if you join this site.

In summary, I would not recommend Christian Mingle to a friend.

Whilst I did not have log-in problems or negative contact with customer service like others have reported, and whilst the design and features of the website are laudable, it is the ethics employed by this service that are my chief concern. It pains me to have to write this about the supposed #1-rated Christian dating site, but what they claim about their membership numbers is unequivocally false. Plain and simple. It is highly deceiving and patently unjust to advertise and cleverly design your site in a way that leads people to believe that all those who they contact are free to reply. What I mean is that most sites use different colors for paid and unpaid member profiles so that you know if a person can respond to (or even read) your email or not. Since most sites will allow unpaid members to at least RECEIVE messages and, in some cases, reply if the sender IS a paid member, I naively assumed that was why there were no visible distinctions of membership level. It was only when I checked the "Sent" section of my email (where it shows if your messages have been read) and I saw that less than... (Read the full review)

All of the connections I made were dishonest ones. I am pleased to hear that some of you found a real, honest and candid individual. Much to my dismay one man was already in a relationship and cheating with me, one man was married, and three men were fictitous! I joined for one month, and I decided to give it another try; What I have accomplished from this ordeal is learn a difficult lesson that many people are not what they appear to be and throw hard earned money away.

In summary, I would not recommend Christian Mingle to a friend.

I realize that Christian Mingle cannot control what people post but eye awakening to me that one of the first people I was matched with is someone I know who lied about being divorced, having children and going to church.

I had photos turned down of me because they only want full face pictures YET they had others photos who were bizarre including one guy with a mask on that made him look like a woman. Really?

I should have read the fine print. I thought I was only signing up for a 3 month trial. However, they automatically billed me for ANOTHER 3 months and would not refund my money. For them it appears to be bottom-line about the money. Yes, even "Christians' rip you off.

In summary, I would not recommend Christian Mingle to a friend.

I have been on this site a while. It seemed ok, someone I liked the look of emailed me so I paid to contact him. All of a sudden, can't access the site. I see now that others have this problem and it is part of a scam. So I've cancelled the payment and good luck to them using my pictures for fake emails. You live and learn. Learn from us when we say KEEP AWAY from this site.

In summary, I would not recommend Christian Mingle to a friend.

Do not join, its NOT free and the only 'free' you will get is 'smiles' which are preset texts or they will give you 3 free days to try it. The trick? you have to MAIL back the cancelation and it has to be CERTIFIED and mail it to Utah! so you might want to sign up and mail the cancelation letter the same day and hope it will get there on the third day.

There arent many subscriber on this and the ones I was sent as matches live over 100 miles away from me PLUS even though I had a specific type, I would just get everybody.

Join Match or eHarmony at least they will not give you such grief to cancel. Who would've thought that people would even use God to get believers to sign up.
STAY AWAY, THIS SITE IS A REAL WASTE OF TIME!!

I had to give it a one star because you cant leave it blank but I would have given them a negative 5 stars (-5)

In summary, I would not recommend Christian Mingle to a friend.

I'm a fairly good looking guy. Not stunning but generally have never had any trouble getting women. I have however had trouble finding good Christian women. I though that CM might be the answer. Unfortunately even though they boast millions of members they do not tell you that the vast majority of these people do not have memberships. You will nine time out of ten not hear back from people. In fact most of the time your mail won't even be read mainly because the other person is a paying member. Factor that in with ads that are often sexual in nature and just a general uneasiness I get from the site and the way it handles its customers. I can safely say do not join this site. Also I am convinced that they have certain members on there to "hook" you but are not actual people or are at least being paid by the site. No proof of this but this is the feeling I get. One girls photo was very obviously a scan from a magazine...

I am very disappointed that this site is misleading users. At the end of the day, there is not such free subscription per say. In order for the user to read an e-mail from you is that the have to be a payed member after all.

The site does not show you if the member has a subscription or not. So no matter how many e-mails you send they won't be able to reply back.

In order words, what this site, Christianmingles, wants is to pressure the other user to pay a subscription to communicate with you.

The only good point I found is that is very easy to log in.

In summary, I would not recommend Christian Mingle to a friend.

I specifically stated my search parameters to include a certain age range and location relative to distance. Approximately 40% of those who viewed my profile were not within my search parameters. Another 40% did not include photos nor the question and answer profile questions. I feel the site was eager to gather membership dollars but in order to be a productive site should request members to provide a photo and complete the questions to allow the viewer reason for follow up. This site can inflate the numbers of provided viewers when, indeed, there was approximately 20% of those that were viable candidates.

In summary, I would not recommend Christian Mingle to a friend.
