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.

Maureen Tara Nelson MNM Matchmaking Melville New York

Maureen Tara Nelson is one of the biggest scam artists i ever encountered. Not only did she rip me off but she ripped off my girlfriend that I referred to her. When Maureen first meets with you, she pretends she really cares about your situation and plays on your emotions. She tells you she has a thousand successful, confident men in her database. She is pretty consistent first few weeks with sending matches but maybe one out of the 10-15 she send is even close to what you were asking for. She completely disregards any of your requests and then if you say NO she replys with a nasty email. She also talks unprofessionally about fomer clients and co-workers of her's. After I gave her $900.000 (installments in 3) I herad from her less and less. Now I am lucky if I get one match every 4-6 weeks. She doesn't care, she just wants her $$$. She needs to be stopped, I would love to get together with other people that she scammed and see if there is something we can do. She is one of the most unprofessional business owners I have ever come into contact with. I am frustrated, disappointed and disgusted with her lack of customer service and unprofessionalism.

We need to do something!!!

AUTHOR: Maureen - ()

POSTED: Thursday, September 26, 2013

 Dear Readers,

I am the proud owner of Maureen Tara Nelson Private Matchmaking. Before I explain all the positives of my company, I need to address this comment and let you know it is NOT TRUE.

In the past, I've been matchmaking for over 13 years, a few people became frustrated with the process of meeting people and have chosen this route. I immediately called them and they all took back their complaints (although as you can see, they will never take down complaints.) I always do everything in my power to make my clients happy! And yes I do have over 1000 success stories.

Although I admit to never being able to make every single person successful, this comment is false. My attorney is dealing with this personally. It is 100% slander.

If this is a real client of mine, simply call me and I will personally prove to you I can make you happy!

However for all the readers, I did have cancer and had surgery on 6/25/13. Within a month, against doctors orders I was back interviewing clients personally. During that time, if anyone was unhappy with the results from my matchmaker that they met with, now that I am back and Thank God 100% cancer free, I have offered to meet them personally and still will. I am proud to say that over 99% of my clients have been amazing and kind!

I did have a client that was extremely unprofessional, unrealistic, and abusive when I explained to her the situation of why I was out on medical leave and had my colleuges and staff take over for me.  In my contract if anyone is abusive, they will lose their membership! Her words were, "I don't care that you had breast cancer, I didn't get a match for the past couple of weeks." This person is on tape theatening to "ruin my reputation" and said will use "rip off report" and others to ruin my integrity. No matter what I said, this person would not stop screaming that she will ruin me! Well, she is trying. But I do not want someone like that in my program. For the record, my clients do not get a new match every week, that is impossible, since I match people on three parts of compatibility, make sure they have the prerequesites, and need to be available to date. What I do say is that I check every week for all of my clients. It is also written in everyone's paperwork when they leave me.

I have to let my attorney deal with this slander. I was always a positive person, but now with surviving cancer, nothing or no one will ever bring me down. My clients are all by my side and checking in with me weekly, some not even to ask about matches, simply to see how I am feeling! I would also like to use this time to personally thank all of my amazing clients.

I am proud of my 1200 clients. All my clients are the best of the best singles in N.Y. They are all kind, loving, compassionate, successful, attractive singles looking for a commited relationship. They know I will do everything possible to find them their sould mate!

I ask you all to please not let this very negative person ruin what I have worked so hard for over the past 13 years. I think you can tell by reading the words and reading between the lines that it is false and the person is extremely negative-and doesn't belong in my program.

Thank you all for reading my side of the story.

P.S. I am also working on starting a non profit organization for breast cancer survivors who own their own business. Please contact my office if you are going through this horrible ordeal and own your own business. I will be there for you, as others have been there for me!!!
