The information provided in this report below is based on comments made by Maureen Tara Nelson during an onsite inspection held by a third-party verification company with no biases towards MTN Matchmaking.

MTN Matchmaking is a matchmaking service that is dedicated to helping people find a healthy and lasting relationship. Maureen Tara Nelson stated the following about her company, "We have a very thorough screening process we are not for everyone. And I can’t accept everyone because if I did I would be like the other companies that have been out there that have all gone out of business for doing the wrong thing. My model is to do a criminal felony background check in every state on all of my clients. Then as the owner, they come to me and meet with me personally and I give them a free consultation because I need to make sure that I think I can help them. The screening process when I meet with them I make sure that everyone is a nice decent, quality, positive person, emotionally stable. I am an executive level certified matchmaker and there are only a few of us in the country."

Leads for MTN Matchmaking are primarily obtained through television appearances on NBC, CBS, HBO, and A&E. Additionally, they advertise through print, commercials, and social media. Ms. Nelson proceeded to explain the sales and services process for her clients, "What a client can expect is a free consultation where I go through the screening process with them. Then they come in and I have to get to know their personality to the point that I am matching them with 3 parts of compatibility. This is my own private method I do it by hand I don't do it by a computer algorithm. On the interview, they will know about the screening process and how I do the matching by 3 parts of compatibility. They also have homework to do before they come in they have to think about what their 5 best qualities are. Then they have to think of what the 5 must haves are for the man or woman. They are also asked to wear something nice because if they like the program I will take their photo. So, I meet with them for an hour but the longest interview I have had was 4 hours because sometimes. I do a tiny personality test at my home office. Everyone leaves here with a packet that goes over all the information of what we go over here. They get a welcome letter, they get a letter on what to expect as a client and the most important thing is a list of do’s and don't s in dating. Then once they tell me Yes I love the program then we go over the different program. I have 5 programs for them to choose from ranging in price from $995 up to a celebrity program as well. If a person is celebrity lives here on Long Island my prices are $6500 which may seem like a lot to a person who is an accountant let's say but they won't pay that unless they are a celebrity. And then I go into how it works. If a person is compatible in 3 ways as well as having the 5 must-haves they will get an email on Tuesday evenings with the person's photo and a little bio about them and their only job is to say yes or no."



CUSTOMER CARE & COMPLAINT RESOLUTION – MTN MATCHMAKING

MTN Matchmaking was asked to describe a situation where a client was not satisfied with the level of service they received. Ms. Nelson explained that there are no guarantees in the matchmaking world. She additionally stated, "I will always do my best I will match you appropriately and make sure they have your 5 must haves but there are things I do not have control over. I do not have control over if a woman or man say yes to each other. I don't have control over if you go out on a date with a man and you are very nasty to the wait staff. Those are on you and those are the ones that complain. I bring them back to the point of what it was like to date without Maureen? So with people, there are times that they come in and they are unhappy. If they tell me about it soon I can fix it but there are some people that they came in acting positively and they were not. I can’t help people like that. If they are patient, open-minded, and positive I can help them."

When asked to comment on complaints posted on Ripoff Report's website Ms. Nelson expressed that the comments made were false and didn't align with her business model. Ms. Nelson stated the follow to assure future and current clients, "I am an executive level certified matchmaker and there are only a few of us in the country and that is through the Institute of Matchmaking. Then they will see every year we win Dan’s papers which is primarily Suffolk county here on Long Island for best dating service. What they factor in is Match.com and every kind of dating service out there. These awards are people that vote in. I am up against Tinder and all those swipe apps. For Nassau and Suffolk county combined there is the biggest award for every business owner. I think there are 3000 categories of businesses. What they do is they pick the top 3 that people vote in for. Every year I have come in the top 3. We were just notified this year that we came in first place. We are super excited because that is huge! I have citations from controllers on long island...the politicians...the county clerks. They can't be bought off and these are people in the community that have said hey there is a matchmaker here on Long Island who goes above and beyond for her clients and has given me awards. I have an A+ rating with the BBB. I am also a certified wedding officiant."

MTN Matchmaking is proud to be a part of Ripoff Reports Corporate Advocacy Business Remediation and Customer Satisfaction Program. Ms. Nelson stated the following, "I am honored because I couldn’t love what I do more. I am very blessed with what I do and with your program, you are giving me a chance to speak from my heart about what I do for my clients. Those few in owning my business for 12 years is a great record in the scheme of things but it is still too many for me. I work hard to make my clients happy and successful because our clients are family to us. I think that you are going to be able to be my voice and say we know this person and she only have love in her heart. I know that every day I do everything that I can do for my clients. So I don't know of anything more I could do for my clients. I love what I do. I hope that I am honored that you have this so that you can help me spread that positivity.

NOW TO THE ORIGINAL REPORT THAT WAS FILED

---------------------------------------------------------------------


This company is such a SCAM.  I have been a member for almost two years - paid approximately $5000 for the "elite" service and have absolutely nothing to show for it but a hole in my wallet.  It was supposed to be a three year contract but I recently received an email that my contract has been cancelled due to my not being peppy enough. Since joining, I have had exactly one match, who was only interested in my bank account.  Funny enough, I have met multiple women who are also her clients and every one of them is just as dissatisfied as I am.  We have actually bonded over our victimization with this company and get together for dinner to share stories.  Funny enough, even though MTN assures us that we get one match per week, one week last month every single one of us got matched with the same man.  Can we say that they lie?  Through our various experiences, conversations with other members and participation in singles events, we have learned that this company is a legal form of prostitution.  That many of the women are escorts and that is what the men are looking for.  One of the gals in our newly formed group openly admits that since Maureen expects her to do anything the men ask, including attending strip clubs on a first date, she complies and then gets the men to pay for things for her.  One guy told us that every woman he is matched up with is either a golddigger or a junkie. If you are a decent human who works hard for their money and is looking to meet someone, this is NOT the matchmaking service to use.  We are trying to figure out how to start a class action lawsuit.

This client lost her membership due to being inappropriate which is clearly written in our contract and is now trying to ruin my reputation by saying All of these lies.

#2REBUTTAL Owner of company

Sat, August 06, 2016

In this year I terminated two women's memberships for being inappropriate which is written right in the contract that they signed that if they ever act inappropriately they will lose their membership without refund. Because this person Is not telling the truth, they obviously will not use their name. If they had a valid issue with me that was truthful, they should have no problem saying their name. The facts are that both of these women both threatened to tell lies about my service because they were very angry That they lost their memberships. I would like to ask them to show the proof of the ridiculous comment that they lost their membership for not being peppy enough. That is purely ridiculous! Ask them to prove that to you. With both of these women, Their behavior was inappropriate to the point that I could not in good faith ever match them up with the quality man that we have. The lies are even two insane to even respond to. I have been matchmaking for over 15 years and have my own business for 10 years. I do not think I would be able to be in business successfully this long if any of this nonsense written was true. I am very proud of my record of success and I work very hard for my 1750 clients.

This particular woman that I had to terminate was so angry that men said no to her mostly because of her not being attractive in comparison to the beautiful ladies that I have in that older age group. If someone does not meet many people in my program they need to ask themselves why? Although 90% of my clients are very attractive I do except 10% that are not if they are very positive the day I meet them, because I do believe there is a lid for every pot. But this woman's true colors came out very quickly as men were saying no to her Because of her looks, and she made the mistake of saying no to much to men as well. She was totally unrealistic after about the first month of working with her. Please note that I was very clear on the interview with her that I could not guarantee this program would work because I have no control over if the men say yes to her and if she says yes to the men.

Instead of realizing The problem was not with the program or even the men, instead of taking responsibility for understanding that it would be hard for her to find A match as I told her in the initial interview, she became nastier and nastier as time went on. When I told her on the interview this is going to be very difficult because in this older age range we have so many beautiful women she admitted that she knew it would be difficult but she had NO hope on the outside world. She was kind that day so I took her on, as I do not take on everyone. I soon regretted that decision as she would go up to men at events and ask them why they said no to her, she was always being negative to everyone that she met at events, and even said no to men that she should have said yes to. If she took my advice and stayed positive, she would still be a member and might have been successful. Instead she was highly inappropriate on many occasions until the point that I could not ever match her with any of our great quality men. The fact that this woman says that she gets together with other women in our group and talks about the service negatively should show you how impossible it would be to make anyone Focusing only on negativity successful.

If someone is negative, I cannot make them successful and I cannot change them into a positive person. My recommendation to help them would be to get to the root of the problem of understanding why the men say no to her and why she is saying no to men that she should be saying yes to. It is almost like if this group of negative woman is in fact real, they are wanting this to fail and they are not taking responsibility! I truly believe what you put out there is exactly what will return to you. It is easier for her to blame my program instead. But I want everyone reading this to know that I have over 1000 success stories of great quality singles, 90% of them very attractive and very positive and this program works. However if you are going to be negative, unrealistic, Not take my advice on how to help yourself be successful, it won't work.

It is also so untrue that I tell anyone they will receive a match every week. I never say this to anyone and it is written in the contract as well as all of the paperwork that they receive the day I meet with them. So because she has lost her membership she is simply looking for ways so she doesn't have to admit it is HER. Please ask her to's show all the paperwork that I have given her and it will show clearly that everyone knows that for many reasons, no one receives a new match every week. The one thing I do not understand is how negative this person is being when it sounds like she made a lot of friends through this service. She could be looking at this as a positive that she's meeting other women that are going through the difficulties of being single together. They could all use this as a positive tool and motivate themselves. Instead as you can read by her own words, they are strictly using this to promote negativity.

Also Many times both men and women show up exactly compatible to other clients and if that happens and I believe that one of them might give a no response, I might send both so that I can get at least one yes response for the other person. There is absolutely nothing wrong with this and it happens to both men and women sometimes. None of the lies that are being said about my service here even make sense. Legal prostitution? That I am putting in the hands of my attorney. I work too hard from 6 AM till whenever I finish seven days a week and it is now 1 AM in the morning, to allow anyone desperate enough to write such lies to hurt me. I choose to concentrate on the 99% of my great quality clients that thank me each and every day and which we usually receive at least one success story every day. This woman is in an older group which most matchmakers won't even take on, and again I have many beautiful women that do have great success so it is very sad that she would resort to calling my beautiful positive clients escorts, just because they get yes responses all the time.

It is Truly ridiculous the accusation which is 100% false that I would tell a woman that she needs to do anything for a man and that she would go to a strip club etc. If that were really True, why would they even want that person in their negative group? Again, these lies don't even warrant my explanation, but I need to ask you the readers if this person sounds normal or if she sounds like a disgruntled client that lost her membership for being inappropriate, which was just proven to all of you by everything she wrote. Would you be able to match a woman that's sounds like this up with a great quality man? Thank you all for taking the time to read my response. I pride myself on working very hard to help all of my clients. I wish I could make everyone successful, but as you can see, if someone is this negative to go to the extreme of stating such lies, how could she ever expect to be in a positive relationship with any man. Please feel free to email me any concerns you might have to [email protected]. And if you are single, and a positive person who is realistic, financially stable, and looking for a committed relationship, then please give us a call at 631-577-7940 and you'll meet with me, the owner personally. If you do decide you like the program you will receive a 20% discount for mentioning this crazy post. Thank you, Maureen Tara Nelson MTN Matchmaking
