Note to eHarmony subscribers: eHarmony gives FCW advance billing

Message to currently paid members:

Unlike the 11 past Free Communication Weekends, eHarmony has decided to send advance announcements to all unpaid members and to show advance-notice television ads for this weekend’s FCW.

In other words, anticipate a lot of inquiries and testers in those four days.

Today is a great time to look again at your profile answers and make them better.

Also read our (very old) article: 8 things subscribers can do this Free Communication weekend.

Good luck!

    Interestingly enough, I got two e-mails regarding FCW but not from eHarmony. The e-mails look like spammers trying to capitalize on referrals or some other angle, I’m not sure what (and I am not particularly interested in clicking through the links to find out).

    I have received nothing about a FCW. Two emails in the last four days offering a $14.95 monthly rate on a 3-month subscription, but that’s all.

    Nor have I seen any commercials. Is this a Canada-only FCW?

    Yeah I didn’t get any notice from eHarmony about the FCW and haven’t seen any commercials either (although I admit I haven’t watched a lot of tv lately.)

    I just happened to login and see it was there.

    Above average matches delivered yesterday: 9 instead of 7 via e-mail. Clicking “Find new matches”> yields 4 more for a total of 13. 9+3 = 12 total today, after clicking “find new”.

    Response to communication is lackluster compared to the last FCW. I don’t anticipate any matches reaching OC. Is there something going on this weekend that is keeping folks completely away from the computer?

    I have also gotten an insane number of matches starting on Wed.

    Wed = 20 matches
    Thurs = 7 matches
    Fri = 18 matches
    Sat = 25 matches
    sun = 8 matches

    As for why people are away from their computers this weekend could be because of they were out celebrating Halloween. That was my reason for not logging in. I logged on to eH today, but my last log in had been Thurs.

    I left my PC and the EHB script running since Friday afternoon and here’s what I got so far.

    Fri = 11 matches
    Sat = 33 matches
    Sun = 44 matches

    It’s insane!

    I’d love to see a breakdown on how many of those closed or communicated with you , Ron and SML. I did that last FCW, but haven’t been keeping as strict a tally as I did last time, though.

    Those are pretty amazing numbers compared to a total of 35 matches from Wednesday until now. I’ve only gotten one match to OC, so far.

    SingleGuy, here they are:

    Fri = 11 matches = 2 closed, 5 never viewed, 4 viewed/no reply, 0 communicated
    Sat = 34 matches = 13 closed, 12 never viewed, 8 viewed/no reply, 1 communicated
    Sun = 49 matches = 18 closed, 27 never viewed, 4 communicated
    Total = 94 matches = 33 closed, 44 never viewed, 12 viewed/no reply, 5 communicated

    I got a total of 34 “Match Communication Received” emails.

    Like you I only had one finish OC. No date scheduled yet.

    In my observation, the experience was around the same as regular days. The only difference is the immense # of matches I got. The above stats prove this.

    SML, care to post your FCW story?
