Why would you want to delete your eHarmony account?
EHarmony is an online dating service with a compatibility-based matching system for anyone looking for a serious relationship. However, there are plenty of reasons why you would want to cancel your subscription or permanently delete your account. If you found a partner and no longer need this online dating service, deleting your account is the logical next step. If you are dissatisfied with the service itself — whether it’s the match quality or user experience — closing your profile is the right thing to do. Or you might just want to explore some other online dating platform instead. Another reason for deleting your eHarmony profile is your online privacy. You might have heard of online dating scams or romance scams and wish to avoid situations where you could become a scammer’s target. After all, deleting all accounts you no longer use is a great way to reduce your online footprint and increase your data privacy. But before you delete your eHarmony account, you need to cancel your subscription first.
