We investigate with bay areas chris kimora. T the company says they are holding up to their end of the bargain, but the consumers say they were charged for highend services they never got. Online dating is popular, but it has not worked for maria payne. It has been very difficult. Reporter soon add for the sill conn valley matchmakers caught her eye. It touted itself as a personal and local dating service and she liked that and the Success Story in the oorientation. They linked up so many people, and the Success Stories and they showed me a few of them and, you know, people who had gotten married in the site. Reporter maria bought in and paid nearly 8,000 up front. But then frustration kicked in, because ut seemed that the service was not personal or local. She worked with multiple matchmakers by phone from the sacramento office, and the matches they made were terrible fits. I am not being picky and the same mistakes over and over again, and it is like, are you listening to what i am saying to you, and have you looked at my profile. Reporter her subscription is about to expire, and she says that 7,800 bought her four bad dates. This sour lives that they are taking advantage of. Reporter kim williams has a similar story. She bought into the east bay matchmakers and bought into the local service and surplus of men. The reply was more men than you could date. She signed up for 3,000 six months of matchmaking and it is almost up, and she has four dates set up by people over 1,100 people away. What it is very Little Service for a lot of money. It is like i have been total ally taken advantage of. Taken to the cleaners. Reporter kim and maria went to different bay area offices, but they were tealing with the same company who operates four bay area Matchmaking Companies including a dozen around the country all from the Head Quarters in oklahoma. The Vice President of operations flew here to address the consum consumers concerns. One of the complaints that you get over and over again is that they were promised some different schedule of matchmaking than what they were saying. Reporter he is right. The singles sign a match contract to promise them a membership for a certain period of time, and it does not guarantee specific number of matches or otherwise. And they are intelligent and articulate people to understand the agreement they are entering into. Reporter and yet more than ten clients came to us with complaints, and carol said it did not alarm him, because over 6,000 singles have been signed up, and happy clients send letters every week. We get invitations to weddings, and wedding videos and cards and thank yous. Reporter when we asked to meet one of the couples, the company introduced us to sam. I walked out saying, what am i doing . I cant believe i spent all of this money. Reporter frank said he spent 4,100 for matchmaking that work worked. He is paired with a woman who is his fiance. We are happy and engaged and looking for a house to move in and living the dream. Reporter that is the dream that others believe they were sold with the testimonials like this on the matchmaker website and pictures of the happy couples like these on the owners facebook page. But testimonials like blake thanking silicone val lieu for introducing his soul matt christy, and even one in nevada where blake thanking them for the introduction to the soulmate christy. And those are stock photos, and he says they are not clients, but there is a privacy concern. People are not keen about putting their pictures up and stating, hey, we used a matchmaking service. Reporter he insists that all of the testimonials are real including the sales materials that are shared with the potential clients where they sign the contract. You are buying something sight unseen and paying a lot of money about it. Reporter han said that it is onesided and if they feel they were lured in, they could file a class action. If people are induced into a contract with fraudulent promises, they do have a claim, and they can claim that they were asked to sign something under false pretenses, and they were promised something. Reporter but singles like kim and maria and others want something else. I think it should be shutdown. Everybody else that reached out wanted refunds and the company said no, but it did extend the membership. A settlement with maria might be in the works. The company is by the way run another dating service in the area called executive matchmakers and professor han offered advice. Before signing up, negotiate a pay as you go, and so if you dont like the results, you can cut loose without losing everything.
