It used to be a USER FRIENDLY site. Now it's all about profits. You used to be able to see when a person was last active. Now they don't show it as a way to give the illusion that there are more active users than there actually are. Anything for a buck I guess. They show you if someone was active today. That's it. So if someone wasn't active for 2 days, you have no way of knowing if they've been inactive a year or just a couple of days. On top of that, now there's a minimum length of first message. So you have to spend time putting together a longer message for people whom you have no idea whether they're even active (unless they were active on that specific day). They can do a much better job serving their members in my opinion. Additionally, they take forever to approve new profiles and photos. The manipulative part? When you preview your own profile, you see the changes you've made. However, those changes may not be active for others to see. You have no way of knowing. They really need to approve these types of things more quickly.

1. Lack of local matches and small database. 2. Changed rules where only allowed 1 message initially if no reply, no additional chances(you are blocked), forced to have a minimum of 125 words in the 1 message allowed. Theory is per CM is if someone is interested they will reply after 1 message. They block you if you go outside the 15 year recommended age gap and claimed they did not. Much better sites out their, this is being poorly run, bad decisions.

This website does not follow GDPR laws. I deleted my account on their website and later tried to register another account, only to find out that they had stored my phone number in their database and would not allow me to register again with said phone number. I e-mailed their support team, explaining the issue and asking them to delete my phone number, and they started asking me why I wanted to register another account. I told them that I don't owe them any explanations, as long as I deleted my previous account, and I requested that they delete my phone number from their database. Their response was that they have blocked my IP and I am not allowed to use their site anymore. Stay away from this site! They will keep your data even after you delete your account.

It’s a dead end, waste of time. Also expensive. Was on it for years and never went on a date. The men never respond to your likes or messages. I had one conversation with one person who had obviously lied about his age. He asked me what year it was…. Don’t bother.

Why did you charged my credit card for $95.39 without my authorization today February 27, 2026? I called & left voicemail message. I sent an email & I was told that my email will be answered within 2 days. Being today is Friday does it mean I have to wait until Tuesday?This is a serious matter charging ones credit card without member's authorization & membership still active for the next 3 months. It will be greatly appreciated if you can investigate this matter & if you can stop charges on my credit card & not wait 2 days. I didn't agree for automatic renewal. It's a shame for a Catholic website doing this taking advantage & scamming the elderly.

I would say that 50% of men do not agree with the Catholic teachings/dogma on sex before marriage and contraception. They should not be on the site. They are on there because they don't want a used and been around woman. The app should do a better job of filtering who does not agree with the Church's teaching and guide them towards another app. I hope it's not about the $ that they allow people to actually disagree on contraception and sex before marriage.

Just cannot believe the diishonesty of this website & they are suppose to be Catholic and matching Catholics for dating. I paid 30 bucks for one month....I thought. It was a blankedy blank Subcription and had an automatic RENEWAL after one month. I just threw away money as I cancelled the "Premium membership" after one day as I feared this SO CALLED Catholic Christian Company....screw them. Folks don' fall for paying for one month as they will steal your money with AUTOMATIC RENEWALS which they don't tell up front when paying for one month. Thanks.

CatholicMatch feels like a ghost town. Most of the men on the platform are completely passive or simply not active at all. The biggest issue is the lack of a basic “last active” feature, so you never know if you’re looking at an active user or someone who abandoned their account months ago. The experience feels outdated, slow, and honestly quite frustrating. Other dating apps are much more active, responsive, and transparent. I’m glad I didn’t spend money here, because the platform seriously needs improvement before it can be considered useful.
