| HOW FAST YOU CAN
ARRANGE OUR MARRIAGE ?. |
Marriage is a heavenly happening. Bethlehem cannot
claim any credit for the thousands of marriages materialised
thru our system. We are just instruments maintaining
this system.
Our significance is that the elite
Kerala Christians look for suitable alliance at Bethlehem.
We shall expose your cases to this community. Here
you don’t have to tolerate mediocre middlemen
and their commission culture discussions. |
| CAN I AVAIL YOUR SERVICES
WITHOUT REGISTERING? |
| Bethlehem is an exclusive service for the elite Christians
since 1996. We are catering only the paid members.
In 2005 September we have introduced www.bethlehemmatriominial.com
as an extended service to this elite community. Bethlehem
is not a dot COM Internet business. We are not accepting
free registrations.
However you can respond to the box numbers of the
classified advertisements published in the various
periodicals, such responses will be handed over to
the party. |
| HOW TO REGISTER IN
BETHLEHEM ? |
Visit any of the Bethlehem
offices at Ernakulam, Thrissur, Kottayam or Kozhikode, with 4
Post Card Size Photos and fill in the application
form and Pay the prescribed fees.
Get an application from us by post or thru email,
fill it and mail it along with 4 Post Card Size Photos
and a DD.
Use the REGISTER
NOW option. |
| HOW LONG IS MY REGISTRATION
VALID FOR? |
| Your Registration is valid so long you are renewing
it promptly (every 6 months), or until your marriage
is fixed. |
| WHY IS IT NECESSARY
TO RENEW? |
By renewing we are ensuring
that you are still actively searching for the alliance.
This helps us to keep the database clean from inactive
proposals. Inactive proposals cause embarrassment
to the clients as well as Bethlehem.
The renewal fee covers a part of the cost of providing
the monthly directory. Please note that we do not
publish commercial advertisements in our directory
or website.
If not renewed the directory will not be mailed to
the candidate.
If not renewed for two consecutive months we might
disable some of the services. |
| I HAVE NOT RENEWED
FOR THE PAST ONE YEAR, CAN I CONTINUE TO AVAIL YOUR
SERVICE? |
Yes, you can do a re-registration
by paying only a part of the full registration fee.
Within one year, your data will be much behind in
the old dated albums and you are not likely to get
any responses.
We will give you a new Registration number and bring
your profile to the latest album, and to the upper
numbers in the web site. |
| I AM GOING ABROAD,
WHAT IF I WANT THE SERVICES ONLY AFTER ONE YEAR? |
| You can inform us the same
and we shall keep your profile ONHOLD. So that others
will not send you proposals. |
| CAN YOU PUBLISH
MY POHTO AGAIN IN THE MONTHLY DIRECTORY? |
| Yes, by remitting the publishing
fee you can avail this facility again. |
| WILL YOU PROPOSE
OUR CASES TO SUITABLE CASES AS AND WHEN IT COMES? |
| Bethlehem makes proposals
only at the initiative of one of the parties. You
need to keep watching the web site, albums or the
photo directory and select suitable cases and contact
them. We shall do the follow up as per your request. |
| WHY THERE IS A REGISTRATION
FEE? WHY DON’T I PAY AFTER MATERIALISING MARRIAGE
THRU YOUR SERVICE? |
Our role is to give you
maximum exposure. Our system of Albums at various
centers, monthly photo directory and the web site
is having a long reach deep in to the Christian community.
It costs us to expose your profile thru our various
media. The registration fee is towards this publishing
and maintenances of the system |
| WHAT IF I DO NOT
GET ANY RESPONSES FROM BETHLEHEM? |
| We do not guarantee responses.
The present system generates ample responses to a
reasonably common candidate. If it does not, we must
sit together analyse and probe in to the reasons.
solutions evolved in many a cases. |
| WHAT IF I DO NOT
WISH TO PUBLISH MY PHOTO? |
| You will be at disadvantage.
The cases you are sending proposals to, would like
to view the photo before forming an opinion. If it
is not available the contacts will be disappointed.
Also it substantially reduces the chances to get responses
for you. It also implies wrong conclusions. |
| CAN YOU KEEP OUR
PROFILE CONFIDENTIAL? |
| If you insist, we can keep
the details in confidential files. But it blocks all
standard services to you. You have to visit our office
activate the profile every time you want to make a
search. This is not recommended. |
| WE DON’T WANT
ANY ONE ASKING FOR THE GIRLS SHARE! |
| There should be some indicator
at some stage, so that the other party can evaluate
your financial status. Without comparing the various
parameters arranged marriages are not taking place.
We suggest you state the asset worth of the candidate
while registering. Bethlehem will not involve in share
matters. Assessing the financial status is one thing,
negotiating for share is another thing. The difference
is very thin and delicate. |
| CAN YOU VERIFY THE
PROFILES AND RECOMMEND? |
| We have dedicated ourselves
to remain impartial; hence we do not take the responsibility
of verifying proposals. |
| WHAT WILL HAPPEN
WHEN I SEND MESSAGES TO A PARTY THRU WEB SITE? |
| Your message will be placed
in the InBox of the other member. You can view the
status of each message depending on the action by
the other member in your Out Box. |
| UNABLE TO LOAD/CHANGE
PHOTO IN THE SITE |
The format and size mentioned
in your MyHome page. If you are unable to upload it,
please send the photo by email to bethlehem@eth.net mentioning your Registration number as reference.
We shall resize and upload it. |
| WHY DON’T
YOU PUBLISH THE CONTACT DETAILS OF ALL THE CANDIDATES
IN THE SITE? |
| The whole system is functioning
on information exchange. If we publish that information
there wont be any thing to exchange, no new clients
will come and the database as well as the service
will be a stand still. |
| BUT THERE ARE OTHER
SITES PROVIDING THE CONTACT DETAILS ONLINE !. |
| Bethlehem is pursuing a
mission based on a vision “The well being of
our families”. We are pioneers and model, we
are not competing with dot COM matrimonial businesses. |
| WHY
THERE IS A SERVICE CHARGE? |
Service charge is applicable
if you want to propose directly to the client. The
contact details are to be obtained through our office
after proper identification. (Send email from the
id you have furnished while registering.)
We have an obligation to call the other party once,
for following up of your case. This also helps us
in keeping a track on the proposals. Besides if there
is no restriction some members might be tempted to
get the whole addresses from the database and misuse. |
| WHAT IS THIS DUE
PAYMENT SHOWN IN MYHOME. |
When you ask for the contact details of cases, we
will send you the details and the service charges
of Rs10 per proposal is recorded due against your
name. This will be reflected in the MyHome of web
site. You can pay this online along with renewal fee.
Or pay at the office. |
