I reached a customer service representative by the name of Robert and with the

approval of his supervisor. He informed me that they would correct the error and

I would receive my next 6 months free as promised with my new expiration date

being 21Mar2008.



Thank you for resolving this issue. The representative I spoke with was

extremely polite and helpful.

Subject: Fraudulent guarantee


Dear sirs,



It has come to my attention based on the email I received from you employee that

your 6 month guarantee is fraudulent. Not only have I had numerous memberships

with match, I did qualify for the free six months. On 13Sep2008, I attempted to

accept the free 6 months. The question is worded awkwardly on purpose I imagine

so to ensure the possibility of striking the wrong key (yes or no). When I

realized I had accidentally made the incorrect keystroke. I contacted match

immediately via email on the same day to inform them of this, clarify that I had

not met anyone in 6 months, and request the free 6 months I had earned according

to match.com's guidelines. I was refused. Cleary this action is fraudulent and

clearly when you check you records, you will find that I earned my free 6

months, and you will correct the problem and give me my free six monthx.

Otherwise I will feel it is necessary to contacti the attorney general's office

and my legal council.



Thank you for your time.



W

No I did not decline! I told you I accidentally hit the wrong button. I

contacted you immediately after on the same day it occured. What part of I did

not meet anyone special in 6 months did you not understand? This is very poor

practice and does not follow your terms. Should I make a formal complaint to the

better business bureau or who should I make a formal complaint to. WHo is your

manager. This is not an appropriate way to do business. I expect to be contacted

by someone who can resolve this issue!

I qualified for the six month guarantee but I think I accidentally hit the wrong

button. Could you check for me? I did not meet anyone special in 6 months and

would like to receive my free 6 months.
