Small features for non premium users and internal tech problems
If someone does not have a premium account and sent me a smile I cannot even check their profile. Premium package is way too expensive! I’m sure that 80% of users don’t pay that. Also for some reason when I click on my profile sometimes my picture just disappears. Also if I click at “home” and I try to scroll down to see more users it just came back to the beginning without my permission so I get stuck with the people that I liked or visited. I would like to see more people but the app get stuck if you try to scroll down more than 2 times. They should honestly work on some IT because these are huge concerns for an app in 2020. I like that the app is worldwide but they (Christians mingle app) chose my matches everyday based on the percentage of accuracy and I honestly don’t like any of them. I would love to have a section for best friends because sometimes people might prefer meet their potentially lovers as friends before considering this is a “Christian” app.Show lessJejeeeeeeej
Works Great, but subscription
I think the app works great. The only thing that sets it apart from competition is that it is solely dedicated to Christians and is well advertised
Problem is, it costs so much. And honestly I'm looking for a Christian woman but I'm not that desperate. Like I questioned even using the app because it feels like rushing God's plans for me. But my mind was made up when it costs so much just for the chance to talk to someone. Besides advertising, I don't how else you'd make money. But honestly I think you'd make a good profit by advertising and letting users send messages or see who likes their profile for free. You can still keep all those other benefits exclusive but your charging a lot just for a conversation. A resourceful person would just avoid your app and use Facebook's new dating system to find someone for freeShow lessCorbin_Paddock
Want to like it more, but can't.
My first attempt at online dating. It drew me in because I wanted to find someone who followed Biblical beliefs like I do. However, the hype fell down quickly. The site will treat you great as long as you opt-in to automatically renew your subscription when the old expires. Otherwise you will see all the bugs and flaws it has. States in the app that you can move and scale your profile pictures.....you can't. Free accounts can't view the profiles of people who sent you messages. Just hope they showed up in the "Viewed You" section. Using the app? Well then get ready for lag unlike anything else. Sending "likes" and "smiles" will take a minute each to process. Hope your phone doesn't freeze and crash the app. "F-words" are a common site to see on people's profiles. The terms and service doesn't allow them, but the customer service agents that review the profile don't pay enough attention to care. Speaking of customer service: it's just mediocre at best. They can't really help you. One admitted to me that she didn't know the terms of service. She made up the rule on the spot. Had high hopes going in, but they faded quickly. At least I was able to get a couple of dates out of it. That's the only reason for the two stars. One for each date.Show lessDManBand10

Hi DManBand10! We regret to hear that you didn't enjoy your time with us! While each subscription is set to automatically renew, you as the member have the option to turn that feature off at any time during the life of the subscription. In reality, you can purchase the subscription and, upon successful purchase, turn off the renewal feature immediately. Our Customer Service agents would also be happy to assist with this, either through email, chat or by phone. The account settings are exactly the same for a member with the renewal feature turned off and a member with the renewal feature turned on. The only difference is that one member won't have a subscription renewal, and the other will. If you are having an issue with your photo not appearing as you'd like, we recommend using an on-line photo editor to size and crop your photo prior to submitting. The format for photos on the site is a square, so it's helpful to size your photo to a square prior to uploading. If you're experiencing a lag, please try uninstalling and reinstalling the app. We encourage our members to report any profile that they have a concern about, and we thoroughly review each report. To do so, tap on the (...) on the member's profile and select Report. You also have the option to block any member you aren't interested in. To do so, tap on the (...) on the member's profile and select Block. For additional assistance, please don't hesitate to contact us at support@christianmingle.com. Thank you!Warning
I got my account hacked. First somebody changed my email address and then deleted my pics and uploaded Godly themed pics but they left my profile pic up. Then they changed my age. I also lost my match I was talking to and it’s probably because of whoever hacked my account. Think about how terrifying it is when somebody is posing as yourself with your picture and it’s a dating app. Think about the damage somebody can do to you especially in your local community amongst people you may know. It’s not worth it. Christian or not we all deserve to have an app that protects us and lets us be who we are really are. That’s foremost. I don’t want to deal with hurtful stuff all because I got hacked. It’s not worth grief in life. I’m here on a Saturday trying to reach out to them to delete my account before more damage is done and they aren’t available because it’s not during Mon-Fri business hours. :(Show lessjollyronny
Wish i would have seen all these poor reviews BEFORE I paid for 6 months!
Ive been a paying (female) member for two months now and have spent more time dealing with glitches,billing problems , site crashing, scammers, and had my account hacked than actually meeting anyone! Getting hacked Has been a nightmare. They had to shut my account down and i was forced to get a new email I didn’t need or want in order to get my account back up. But to get it back up has been a nightmare too. Now the app won’t recognize me no matter what i do but i can get on the desktop site. Unfortunately when i was hacked the hacker sent out mail to hundreds of female clients so now my site is still choked with women responding to me as though I’m a lesbian!!! Which, i am NOT! My profile clearly states I am looking for men yet i keep getting women as choices to pick from! What I would say at this point is DON’T BOTHER with Christian Mingle until they use some of that money they are getting from us to provide a quality product, an app that works and a better, customer service department!Show lessSeekingbelievablecharacters
Disappointed 3 months in. Bad site.
This is a graveyard (DEAD) site and a nightmare to waste money on. The intentions to connect Christians was what drew me in of course. I’d hate to say that but all of the weirdos contact you or harass you, and DO NOT do like I did and make the mistake of paying all of your money so soon just to not meet anyone :( I’ll be honest I’m a very pretty young lady. After being burnt out with reaching out to guys who never logged into the site, I hadn’t logged on in for 2 months because I gave up on this site. When I returned, I got 3 poor candidates who were interested and made the conclusion that this was a poor decision to join. I have had more great conversations with people from the free app (although beware scammers are everywhere in cyber world trying to use others). There is a possibility it could turn around, but I doubt it 3 months later when I’m halfway into my membership which I will not be renewing. Good luck to all who try this but you would be better off paying a bill with the money. I suggest only using for free. Don’t get robbed due to these sites preying on us as Christians desiring true love. Pray before you do things and he will order your steps and give you the desires of your heart. Be patient. God bless.Show lessGracefulExpressions

We appreciate your feedback, GracefulExpressions! It sounds like making an adjustment to your Discovery Preferences could be helpful. To do so, tap on the settings icon in the upper right hand corner of the Browse page. We suggest an age range of at least 10 years, and a distance of at least 100 miles from your location. Leave the remaining preferences blank to begin with, so you'll see an accurate representation of the members on the site. You can then add in preferences one at a time to narrow down the search. As a free guest, you'd be able to respond to members with a blue "+" on their profile photo. This denotes that the member has purchased a Premium subscription and you'll be able to respond based on their membership level. If we can provide any additional suggestions, please don't hesitate to contact us at support@christianmingle.com. Thank you!Not impressed.
Seemed like a fit for me. I really only want to date Christian women. The problem is that the women I try to communicate with seem to rarely check in or respond. I think it’s due to the way they go about trying to get members. When I originally signed up I didn’t pay fees. I would get emails saying someone was interested, but in order to view them I would have to pay fees/join up, which I understand, so I eventually joined up. I think the problem is that now the women I message, don’t respond because when they go to view me they have to join (pay fees)and decide against it. I think most everyone on this site is in this category, and I didn’t realize that at first. It appears that their is a decent selection, but it’s all these people that haven’t really joined up your viewing and can’t respond without joining. I understand they need to make money, and when I did join up I paid for the six month deal. I’ve been a paying member for a couple months with very little interaction, and feel like I wasted my money.Show lessS.TobyWebb
Best $35 I’ve ever spent!! But....
The best $35 I’ve ever spent is on a month membership. If I hadn’t done that, I wouldn’t have been able to message or respond to messages, and I wouldn’t have been able to talk to my boyfriend of a little over a year now! I will always and forever be grateful to ChristianMingle for connecting us.
However, I do think that what you charge for membership is steep. $35 per month is outrageous! I can’t remember what it is for over packages, like 6 months and a year at a time, but I know it’s still high. Whereas other dating apps like Tinder charges something like $20 for a 6-month membership. Much more reasonable. You also should be able to have access to basic features like messaging matches without paying IMO.
I also didn’t entirely like HOW I was matched to people in my area. I feel like no one came up in my area that fit into my filters or conditions at all. Of course, I ended up meeting and dating someone from a different state.
Overall, though, I give this app 4/5 stars because of the issues I mentioned. Above all, I’m happy that I met my boyfriend!Show lessZoë Dunning
Christian Mingle... Is a waste of time and money
In my opinion..(male) This site is for old desperate people who would settle for anyone, and has 3 years to wait for someone “maybe” to show up in which time you would have most likely spent over $2,000 just to get noticed. I’ve hade two meaningful connections to people who were soooo far away the relationship could only work with a teleportation device or a nasty case of codependency. On top of that there were fake profiles, and even one case of warnings of fraud on a banned profile all in the small timeframe I’ve been on. The Value was not here for me gentlemen, I would caution you in thinking “oh I’m spending more money the results should be better” Because I never write Reviews and the awful experience coupled with the price tag left me upset and self conscious, unlike any other dating sites which I’ve had much more successful meaningful relationships. Try it for a month and see what I meanShow lessj66photography
Probably one of the Worst Sites for Dating
I wouldn’t necessarily blame the app/website as much as I would the people on the site. On other websites I had loads of success with men interested in me that I was actually quite attracted to, just didn’t work out because we had different beliefs. So, I tried Christian Mingle since I was looking for someone with the same beliefs as I did. I don’t know if the men on this website are stuck up or they aren’t seeing my profile because I have liked 10+ people, have had the app for over a month, yet have no mutual likes yet. Even the men I matched with at 99% and liked will view me and that’s it. No response or likes from there. Wouldn’t recommend to people looking for something specific because you likely won’t get any responses from any people you’re interested in. Now for the website. The subscription is way over priced, definitely for people who make decent money, not college students. Without the subscription you cannot view messages unless the other person has a subscription. Honestly no point in being on this website unless you are willing to pay a lot of money for it. Have tried to give this website a chance since I am seriously looking for a relationship that is centered around Christ, but will most likely delete because of the lack of success I’ve found with this app.Show lessHbsfnkjcxcbj
