Dating service Match.com faces class-action lawsuit
Posted: Jun 16, 2009 12:23 PM

NEW YORK (WKOW) -- The popular dating website Match.com is facing a class-action lawsuit brought by some of its members.

The members claim the service deceives them by allowing people to post profiles even though they're not paying members and can't read or respond to personal messages.

A customer from New York said that practice brought him "humiliation and disappointment," because he contacted members and assumed they weren't interested in him when they didn't respond.  In fact, the lawsuit suggests, they were never aware he contacted them in the first place.

The consumer news source ConsumerAffairs.com is following the story.  You can read more information about the lawsuit at its website,
