Improve mental health of menDear Match/Tinder/Hinge etc, If you care about the mental health of men, and would like to decrease the depression rates and continuous lowering of self esteem of men, and just want men to stop complaining in these reviews then I recommend taking out the height feature in the bios. Men barely get matches unless they are a super model. My recommendation is, taking out the height feature in men’s and women’s bios because in person, many women would love a guy in person who is 5’11, handsome and in good fitness. But women are not interested in any man on a dating app as soon as they see the number 5 in front of their height instead of the number 6. They think there is a major difference between 5’11 and 6 foot because on paper the number 5 is different than the number 6 but in person 5’11 and 6’0 are nearly the same exact thing to a 5’4 woman looking up at a man. It’s mind boggling and absolutely shallow, but it’s a fact. Men will get more interactions and matches and relationships if women didn’t know their height prior to matching. Yes, height is probably going to be one of the first things a woman asks of a man if she doesn’t know his height prior to matching, but at least matching will give men a chance. Right now they have none..Correctit1349Version: 14.9.0
Fantastic app but...Some bugs need improvement. Sometimes I open the app with a message from more than one person so I'll click on one conversation and the app switches the photos of the two people I received messages from. Next I was checking out someones profile when I swipe surge started. I was thinking about swiping right for this person but the swipe surge seems to have removed their profile and I never got to give them the swipe right. As someone who has just moved to a new area and is trying to meet people, this is extremely disappointing to see a glitch like that happen. A new issue that I’ve encountered frequently recently. I’ll receive a message from a match and can only access the conversation through the notification that pops up when I don’t have tinder open. If I open tinder from the home screen icon, it looks like the match is gone. But when I open from the notification that’s still in my phone’s system, I can still send and receive messages from that match. It’s starting to make me wonder how many matches I’ve actually lost and how many were just lost to a glitch in the system. Please fix this..JTD457Version: 13.8.0
My “Tinderella” StoryI downloaded Tinder because a few friends told me to. I was nervous because I figured it wasn’t something for me. I’ve always been the relationship type of person so I figured an app known for other things was definitely not where I’d find love. Unlike some of these bad reviews I didn’t buy Tinder gold or anything like that, I actually thought the regular app was quite fun. I honestly got addicted to it and would spend a lot of time swiping. I swiped right on this adorable, tall, guitar playing guy and we immediately matched (yay). He texted me first and we hit it off straight away. Turns out him and I went to the same college and everything. We had SOOO much in common. After getting my phone number and facetiming for a couple days, he picked me up and we went on our first date, which would be one of many many wonderful dates. Little did I know downloading Tinder would lead to meeting the love of my life. Just thought I should share my “Tinderella” story on here to let everybody know that while Tinder is super fun, it can also lead to something more than just somebody to text or talk to. :).PedrotheoboeVersion: 12.23.0
WelpThey now limited poly couples from having a joint profile, which is pointless because now we’re just going to have more people we end up accidentally matching with that turn out to be someone in a poly relationship. It makes more sense to give people in poly/open/enm relationships *their own category* so that people who are looking for that type of relationship or interaction can find each other, but not ending up in the same pool with people who are interested in monogamy. Tinder is the biggest dating app thus it has the most amount of users, so that’s both good and bad. More people you don’t find remotely attractive to swipe through, and constantly being reminded you have 99+ likes or whatever, but ultimately you’re more likely to find at least a few people to choose from to talk to. A lot of creeps and people that are just looking for hookups, or people that don’t bother to even read your bio and just swipe based on photos, which is annoying but expected on any dating app. But there’s also more of a chance of finding someone compatible. Just make sure you don’t accidentally meet your soulmate and blow it on the first date..BambiRaptorrrVersion: 14.9.0
Cooperate strikes againI’ve seen the ratings go down for years, and here’s why: Tinder reasonably realized they made more money from people who bought tinder premium or gold in 2015. In the earlier days, tinder gold bought you the most basic upgrades, like unlimited swipes. Nothing special. Today however, they’ve gotten so greedy that they made two separate algorithms: if you’ve payed for tinder gold, you’re placed in an algorithm that will match you frequently with people who swiped right on your profile. If you didn’t pay, then you are enrolled in an algorithm that purposely avoids people who’ve swiped right on your profile. Furthermore, I’ve both the free version of tinder, and I’ve used tinder gold, and I’ve found that disgustingly, you find more minorities and people people with a larger body size tend to appear significantly more frequently on the free tinder algorithm. This overt prejudice blatantly contrasts with how accepting of diversity they seem on their advertisements. Don’t be fooled, Match Group clearly doesn’t care about you and your love life, rather on the size of of your pocket and the color/ shape you possess..HeuUsVersion: 12.20.0

They Can Shut You Down With No ExplanationWithin 48 hrs of having downloaded the app (most of that time I was traveling so I wasn’t even very active) they put my account under review and asked for some verification photos which I provided. Then I waited a couple days to let things get sorted out before writing the customer service people, I received a response saying that they were escalating the issue for further review, ok no problem do your thing, then I received a follow up email saying my account was all good and I should be able to log in. But then when I went to open the app it said I had been banned. This is insane because I’m a super nice respectfully person, only had pleasant and positive interactions with the few people I was chatting with, never said anything that could be deemed offensive or violate their community guidelines or terms of service at all, all of the photos of me were fairly recent… I was shocked. After reaching out again they refused to offer any explanation and said the results were final and permanent. I feel like I was treated very unfairly, and should have at least been given a reason for what was the issue other than “we take our terms and conditions and/or community guidelines very seriously.” Of course, and so would I. Im just highly disappointed and feel betrayed by this app. Out of all the ratchet stuff going on constantly, I get banned and I was nothing other than kind and respectful to everyone I chatted with..Mr. McGuillacuttyVersion: 13.1.0
For adults or children?I took a chance on this app to find a serious relationship. First, I hate that to see people who like you, you have to pay. I get it, they need to make their money somehow but $20 for one week! If I have to decide between putting gas in my car & "seeing who likes me" then that's pretty sad. 2nd, I personally had a few matches that I was talking to BUT I hated the flakiness and ghosting. It's ANNOYING & I was talking to men in their 30s!! I even had a date set and the guy ghosted the day before our date! Tinder needs to categorize their people better or have some sort of filter. Even though I clicked on "long term relationship", I was still receiving messages from guys who were anxious to tell me the size of their co..k. Tinder also needs to have a new to feature to limit GHOSTING! Before un matching, the person has to choose maybe 1 out of 3 preset options on why their un matching the person. This way the other person receives the preset message & at least had some closure. Tinder os originally known for hook ups, I get it. But more and more people are using it to find companionship as well. I was very salty when this one guy, who I was having lengthy, fun, flirty and even personal conversations with jut ghosted me out of nowhere. It's frustrating & even though Tinder can't "control" people, it needs to do something for those who want to use the app for serious dating..Punklovr182Version: 14.9.0
Deserves shutting down, it’s a scam.What can I say? What should I say? It doesn’t help you meet people or get you dates, but it does do what it was designed to do, make the creators/developers money. Limiting the number of swipes for one, designed to make money, pay for extra swaps you sad lonely peasant. See who likes you? Cough up the dough. 6 weeks so far, zero matches. I’ve swiped, and swiped, and swiped. Unfortunately, Tinder is not for dating, it’s for hookups, only the most attractive people get to use it for screwing. If you want a meaningful relationship, look elsewhere, otherwise you’re wasting your time. In fact, just find some courage and bravery, and the strength to face rejection in the real world, because you’re only going to meet real people and find a real relationship by going outside and meeting real people, not swiping on shallow and “pretty” people day in and day out on a cash grab app preying on the lonely or desperate. Do not, I repeat, do not get this app for a relationship. If you’re an 11/10, or even a 10/10, and feel like a casual hookup, by all means go for it, but don’t think your soulmate is on here, or that you’ll find “the one,” ‘cause that ain’t happening and it ain’t realistic. Please, go outside, go where people are. Roll the dice. Maybe someone you find attractive has a partner already. Maybe they don’t, that’s just a risk you have to take, and it’s already way way more effective than even 100 days on this app will ever be..Dako_the_AustiniteVersion: 13.15.0
Tinder went downhillI don’t normally leave reviews but it’s really surprising to me how downhill Tinder has gone. Idk if there are just too many users now and people get put way down in the deck unless they buy the overpriced platinum membership or what, but it’s a night and day difference. Anecdotally, I used to get a dozen or more likes a day and at least 3 matches, and if I boosted I would get several dozens of likes by the end of the 30 minutes. Now I’ll be lucky to get a LIKE, let alone a match. I very rarely get matched with someone I liked first, which is completely different than it was a couple years ago. Idk if it’s because I came back to the app after a few years of inactivity (I was in a relationship), and Tinder sank the rating of my profile so low that I never get surfaced to other people. I’m not going to spend upwards of 50 bucks a month or whatever it is on a platinum membership to get the same experience I did a year and a half ago. App ratings have sunken since, prices of memberships have increased, and it just seems like the app is starting to die and they’ll die by squeezing out as much money out of you as they can. Fwiw even after I got a gold membership and used a boost, I still log in every day and see no likes. So I don’t even think paying money is an option for you to get in Tinder’s good graces unless you get the platinum membership. Just not worth it. Anyway, Hinge seems like a better option..Hardshot4488Version: 12.23.0
Women/Fems get permanently banned :)I've been on this app off and on since 2018 and never had any problems, even impulsively paid for premium a few times. The other day I loaded up the app to answer a message and instead was met with a cute little message from Tinder saying I've been banned and can no longer use Tinder, ever! I was super confused because I know I hadn't done anything that would've caused me to get booted so dramatically. So I very nicely emailed customer support asking what I did wrong and if there's any way I could appeal. I waited patiently for a response, which ended up being an automated message just reiterating the fact that I had been banned from using Tinder. So turns out you cannot appeal, or even contact anyone after your banishment. After that I did some googling and seen that A LOT of confused women who've been banned from Tinder came together and found out that the answer to why they've all been banned is butthurt men! When they don't get their ideal response from women they falsely report their accounts in a fit of rage and Tinder immediately bans them! I also found out that the majority of my women/fem friends have also been banned in the past without reason. It's really funny to me because it looks like these straight men are about to get bit in their little quivering bums when this app becomes a meatfest and they've got no one else to swipe on. So good luck with keeping the business up Tinder! :).I dont want petaVersion: 14.3.0
Horrible support.My account was hacked and the hacker must’ve edited my profile or I’m not sure what happened but when I tried to log back in it said my account was banned for violating community guidelines. So I emailed support, I explained the situation and even offered any proof I could gather to show I was not to blame. Instead of offering any help, or even looking into anything, I was sent back an email telling me there’s no point, and I’ll never be able to use tinder again using my Facebook or phone number (you can no longer sign up using just email). I can understand they are trying to keep their platform safe, but considering this could easily be proved if they just looked into the matter, but are in all honesty seemingly too lazy to do so. I was a premium member, it also doesn’t stop your membership. So despite my account being banned for an unknown amount of time, I have still been charged for the membership. They gave me no other notice that my account was banned or even under investigation other than when I tried to sign in again, so I have no way of knowing. When I brought that up to support they said it was my fault because “it’s stated on the bottom of the screen when you try to log back in” but again, I hadn’t tried signing in for a couple months, so with no other notice, I had no way of knowing I had to cancel the subscription. Overall this situation was ridiculous and unessicary..357_t0Version: 13.21.0
Don’t waste your time or money!So, I have had Tinder off and on for the past few years. But recently after deleting my account to start fresh and take a break. About 2 weeks ago I redownloaded the app to give it another shot. However, I was randomly banned without any explanation as to why. I believe I was banned because so many guys I had matched with made sexual advances towards me and I denied them. So they most likely reported my account. And although I have only been back on the app for 2 weeks, despite my profile saying I’m looking for a relationship so many guys asked for sexual favors or wanted to hookup. Making vulgar and crass remarks unprompted often right off the bat. Which I should not be reported for. Then I emailed tinder to request my account be unbanned and I was given some dry, robot response. With no consideration of what I had experienced using the app. So ladies be aware that this can happen to you too. Even if it is not at all your fault! It would be nice to know what terms and community guidelines I supposedly “violated”. Not to mention, I reported the sexual commentary I received constantly. There is a huge issue with men who are looking to cheat on their significant others on this app. I’m sure I am not alone in this. But how am I more at fault then people who are committing adultery? I not anyone else should not be punished for declining their advances and wanting to actually DATE someone we connect with! Crazy concept..#BrutuallyHonestVersion: 13.1.0
Worst app, with the worst support team.I have been a long time Tinder user. I am currently permanently banned from the service, and I am 100% unsure as to why. I was always polite to people on the service, and I never broke the community guidelines. I was always keeping my profile pictures updated as well as my bios. I even went as far as to verify myself for tender, 2x. I randomly sign in when I to find that I am banned. The worst part is the girl that I have been talking to for the last week now has no contact information or way to get a hold of me. On top of that I have now been robbed the $40 due to being a tender platinum member because that’s how you get matches on the app. It’s 100% paid to play on tinder, and anyone who tells you otherwise, is a liar. The most painful part about this, is I want to meet a girl abroad, and now I am completely cut out of that. Thanks to tinder for taking all my money for the last year and a half, and never finding me matches that will respond. Even when I’m paying for the App. Ps trying to appeal with support is pointless. They will take their time responding, and that’s if they respond at all. The first time I messaged, I had someone tell me that my account was banned. Didn’t give me a reason and then immediately close the case so I could no longer message them. Pay for this app at your own risk nine times out of 10, they aren't going to work for you, but in their own interest..CungpowchickinVersion: 13.17.0
BANNED FOR NO REASONI've used the app almost since the app first was created, and it has led to some decent dates and friendships along the way. I truly enjoyed the app (not so much the "match- and-silence/ignore" trend, but that falls on the user, not the app). I've posted rather silly pictures of my self fully clothed. I've never harassed anyone or pursued anyone beyond a clear ignoring of a message or unmatch. Not was my profile spam or fake in any way. I was instructed by the generic automated email when I reached out and all I was told is that I "violated the user agreement or terms of use" or something along those lines. When I checked those terms, there was not one thing that could be remotely close to any term that I've broken that l've done in the years of using the app. And when I replied back with elaboration, there was, of course, no response. They also stopped allowing appeals, so now l'm unable to get back on the app. There are other apps, I know. But this just doesn't sit right with me - someone who uses the app onlv for it's intended purpose and is not life banned for the app for no apparent reason, given no explanation, and no opportunity to fix it. This app was in the end a waste of my time and money (oh yeah, I subscribed multiple times to their advanced features to see who swiped on me because why not?) Beware any newcomer to this app that this is a fairly common issue on getting banned for no reason! Enjoy it whilst you can....GậhchVersion: 12.11.1
Too many fakes, scammers, “catfish”Nothing is done to ensure that the people on the site are actually genuinely looking for a match. Captchas aren’t installed, having a “verified” profile is optional, most members don’t fill anything in the bio because it’s not even required. Often you’ll see people that are thousands of miles away by mileage, or people that are nearby, but their “live in” city is thousands of miles away because they’re just visiting your area. Needs to be a setting to only show those people that are physically nearby and also live nearby, or where you can select it if you want to see visitors. There’s no way to tell political leanings unless they put certain tags in their profile or put it in their bio. There’s no way to know important things like if they have pets or drink/smoke unless they happened to answer those questions-they’re optional. There’s no way to make it so you only see people that don’t have pets or don’t smoke or restrict out certain tags a person might add as their interest, for example “Activist”. To be a better app, these things need the focus, not the cutesy “Vibes” questions that don’t have much meaning to whether they’re going to be a good partner or not. And having to “Boost” in order to be seen by people you like is lame - it ought to just automatically put them front and center for them and tell you if they rejected you or not. But anything for a buck, eh, Tinder?.Navyjax2Version: 13.4.0
Tinder Gold Is No Longer Worth Your MoneyI used to unironically like Tinder, even at its base form I’ve gotten matches that ended up leading to great relationships. Unfortunately, as time has passed the company has made taken away features and slowly asked for more money to unlock them; specifically with super likes. I’ve travelled alot and used tinder gold each time I travelled to find friends in new countries. Having five super likes a day helped me stand out from the crowd and led to fairly consistent matches. Even on a base account having access to the occasional super like was a huge help. Nowadays on a base tinder account you don’t have any super likes which is genuinely a huge detriment, and on tinder gold you get five a week. A massive decrease of 35 a week to 5. But the price remained the same??? A super like was a fantastic way to differentiate yourself in an environment where first impressions are everything. And for some guys and gals who are great people but not super models it can help hedge your bets to match with people you have a genuine interest with. I think taking that tool to consistently show interest in people you genuinely like was a bad decision for the company. I use to be a fairly consistent subscriber for Tinder Gold and I used to speak highly of it too, but with these new changes I will never again give this company my money..WordiestTombVersion: 13.8.0
Gone down hillThis app used to be great however now the premium prices have gone up but the app has gotten worse, I would get many matches on tinder of beautiful girls however there’s a catch a lot of these girls most likely just want promote their only fans, I’ve had many matches and 9/10 they are just girls looking to promote only fans in United States. I say that because I’ve actually chatted with one of the girls through her only fans to see where she was from. I told her that we matched on tinder and she admitted that she is only on tinder to promote her only fans she also told me she was actually from Whales even though it told me she was just 3 miles away, I know she probably had travel mode or something however this is actually happening more often just recently I matched another girl on tinder and you guessed it, some pretty girl wanting me to check out her only fans. I’m not the best looking dude in the world but in the past I’ve had greater luck, I went on many dates and even dated someone I met on tinder for a while and that was without paying, now I pay to use the premium features and only match girls who only want to promote their only fans. I don’t really want to rip on these girls even though they don’t have the intention of dating on here, however I do want to warn people that tinder is not what it used to be and expect match with people who don’t have the intention of dating..Fun7162Version: 14.7.0
Notifications are belittlingHad a notification today that stated essentially “the only way to get out there in the dating world is to get back online - who would’ve known 😱” not only is it unprofessional to assume that I’m currently wanting to get on tinder to use for dating currently, but it’s also ridiculous to think that Tinder is the only way to meet a significant other. Not only the snarky and condescending wording by whoever decided to write this notification, but to not respect my boundaries of when I chose if I’d like to use tinder for my dating choices or not is crazy to me and others. If I don’t want to use Tinder for the meantime, I don’t need your team to try to convey a disrespectful message/notification to me. Sarcasm towards your clients is the absolute dumbest way to get them to use your app and spend money as well. Not only that, you want people to pay 24 dollars a month for a premium package for a site that has a history of hookups, not long term relationship success. You really try to screw your clients in more than one way. Deleting this app for good tonight, and if you have any respect for yourself, I suggest others do the same as well. Obviously this company cares more about how much money they can get out of you, not how meaningful the relationships and success rate of long term relationships that are built from them. If I could rate this company and app worse than a 1 star, I would..BigMike3621Version: 13.3.0
Highly toxic and depressingWow Tinder has gotten to low as to pay for 5 star reviews. I’m seeing fake reviews with 5 stars saying “good”. So glad I stopped using this retched app. Needs to be banned from the apple store. Too many people using this out of boredom and too many douche bags. Please don’t waste your time on this app. No one uses this seriously. It’s just a matching game for most. Also, if you’re a person of color especially a black person just know it takes just a few swipes from someone racist for you to be lowered in your desirability meaning. If you live in an area where people are swiping left for your skin color your profile is less likely to show up for someone on the same level of attractiveness as you. This isn’t just tinder but all dating apps across the board. I’m an above average attractive black woman and in person I have no problem attracting guys pre covid but on here I rarely get any guys I would ever find attractive. Their algorithm controls who you get to see and how attractive you are, theirs so many things wrong with that system and I’m honestly disgusted by all these dating apps. They don’t care if you find love they just care about keeping you on as long as possible. Oh and the CEO once bragged that they had an above average desirability according to their algorithms. Everyone should do research on how dating algorithms work, stop wasting your money..Gale22Version: 13.12.0
Only giving it 2 stars because I met a nice friend.I’ll keep it short and simple. Here you have an app that’s made to connect people and bring them together. In order for you to see who liked you, you need to pay. In order to get more attention via a boost, you need to pay. You want better “top picks”, you need to pay. If your like me, and already literally hated the idea of using dating apps, then don’t waste your time here unless you have money laying around that you don’t mind throwing at this app all the time. Not only Tinder, but most “dating” apps are just broken. I get the idea of bringing people together along with preferences to narrow it down, however Tinder and others try to fit all groups into one. What I mean by that is - this is a dating app right? Where you go to meet people to, ya know, date? I’d say these apps are broken down into three categories of use - relationships, hooking up, and validation. I’d say most people here are on for validation. They don’t want love, they want the love they get from 20 people swiping on them inflating their ego. The next small group is looking for just sex, and the next is actual dating. There really should be an app out there for people to sign up for just for all that attention people need and want. Dating apps? Ya ok, more like feed someone else’s already inflated ego app..IBLopez33Version: 13.1.0
Oh boyJust recently got out of a relationship and decided to dive back into the dating app world, and all I have to say is wow. Tinder has really slipped. What used to be a brilliantly simple and effective dating app has turned into a frustrating, convoluted, pay-walled mess. For Tinder to be even remotely useful, you have to pay for it. And once you do, you’re allowed features that are literally free on other apps. Wanna see who likes you? You’re going to have to pay more a month than you do on a Netflix subscription for that. Btw, Hinge does that for free. Wanna leave a comment on someone’s picture? Surely you can do that with the Gold membership, right? Nope. Gotta shell out even more money for ~platinum~. Guess who also does it for free? You got it. Hinge (and I think OKC too). And even after emptying your wallet on one of their higher subscription tiers, you still only get one boost a week, and you’re still hounded with pop ups every 10 minutes to try out their creepiest feature - the super like. All of this on top of the inherent dating app negatives (ghosting, catfishing, creeps, excessive filters, etc) and you’re in for a miserable ride. Save yourself the stress and money and try literally any app other than Tinder. Or just go to a bar. You’ll spend about the same amount of money but at the very least you’ll get a good buzz..FazzieATXVersion: 12.10.1
Not the sameMany are saying the same things no seriously the developers need to read the comments there are more negative ones then positive ones and it’s understandable like in the past u did not need to pay to swipe that raised my eyebrow , before u swipe endlessly as no lie ur suppose to other apps are smart by doing just that swiping doesn’t even mean one talks to them or talks back to them it’s just swiping. I agree on a business point it’s ok but apart from that it’s going downhill and they need to rethink things because I don’t think the greed is going to help and MANY others are saying it SIMPLY READ THE REVIEWS , it’s real. The personal vendetta they have with some is creepy to say the most they made the app and it’s honestly for hook ups, networking and simply screwing a good fwb for sure but yeah this app is not suppose to be personal to sort of care if a guy or girl is too hot is very very unprofessional and weird. Yeah though other apps are better I will be frank just isn’t the same anymore that’s what they get though u ban people for no reasons u have access to falsifying anything so people be careful as in they can make up everything they send u it may not be from a real user, a real user didn't report u they must monitor it and depends how they wake up etc and it’s sad guys other apps are better.KdmenwbjxudmemVersion: 14.7.0
Why take requests if you don’t make appealsAfter not using my account for a couple days I opened the app to check my messages, only to find out that my account had been banned. I read all the terms and guidelines to see what i could possible have violated, and came up with nothing. I submitted a request to appeal the ban, only to get an automated email saying that they aren’t taking appeals “at this time” and that my account was banned for breaking community guidelines (and didn’t even specify which I had violated). Has tinder ever taken appeals? Because from what I have read it appears not. Why even make it an option to submit a request if nothing will change? It seems like a massive waste of time on both ends. I am apparently not the only person that this has happened to either. Tinder needs to fix their customer service to accept appeals and to talk to a real person about issues with one’s account. The handling of the situation on Tinder’s part was terrible. I had a lot of fun using the app when I did go on it and am extremely frustrated that I was banned without any reason or warning. How is it even possible to violate community guidelines when you’re not actively using the app and don’t have a fallacious or promotional profile? In addition, I am still getting message notifications from the app, even though my account is banned and it signed me out. Absolutely mind-boggling to me..SamirivposVersion: 12.3.0
Banned for no reasonOooo I’m livid I’ve used tinder forever. I deleted my old account for awhile as I had ended up in a relationship but after that not working out I reinstalled tinder and made myself a new account. I did not violate any terms. I didn’t even have a bio and just selfies as pictures, nor did I message any inappropriate things. Honestly I barely messaged anyone I just sent people my Snapchat so the reasoning behind the ban is what I’m confused about. Especially considering I’d had my new account open for like a month before it was banned and hadn’t changed anything on my profile, and also when I went to open the app and found out I was banned I hadn’t been on it in like a week. I was so mad considering once you’re banned that’s it. You cannot use tinder again unless you get a new phone number and Apple ID. I tried getting in contact with some type of support but couldn’t find much help. I emailed about an appeal for my ban but all I got back was a robotic email stating I was banned and can’t be unbanned but still have no reasoning. It’s really pathetic honestly. Then I come on here and realize a bunch of people are getting banned for no reason left and right. Y’all need to get it together and fix this. This is going to drop yalls ratings and user amount tremendously especially considering y’all are getting rid of users yourself by banning them..Mindyrenee7Version: 12.14.0
Men: just say no. not even once.I know it’s tempting and you want to use tinder, but wait a minute man it’s not worth it. Even for pretty attractive guys, it will extremely difficult to find matches and it will destroy your self esteem. Tinder algorithms make this problem even worse. Even if you think you don’t care, you’ll end up feeling terrible about yourself even if you’re a good guy. Academic research on the apps show that top ~20% most attractive guys get almost all of the like and matches, like the vast vast majority, and that women users rank ~80% of men as below average. So essentially if you are 80th percentile or above, top 20+% of all men your age in attractiveness, hot and built, you will do okay. For the other 80% of us average and above average guys, just don’t join, don’t let it ruin your self esteem, don’t be a simp. and that’s assuming you don’t get scammed. Lots and lots of women on these apps pretending they want to date or meet up with you and then they convince you to send them “half the money for the hotel” over Venmo or “Uber money to come over” or whatever and then they block you and you never hear from them again. Come on guys, don’t be simps. Don’t send women money, ESPECIALLY if you’ve never met her in person. If she wants money and you haven’t met her in person yet, it a scam always always always. Maybe a real person, doesn’t matter, still a scam.Justin MummaVersion: 12.8.0
Trans ProblemI’m a 22 year old man and I used to enjoy using this app until they went woke. They have 3 options for what you want to find/interested in- Women, Men, and Everyone. I have it set to Man seeking Women and yet I still keep coming across “Women” who are actually men. They need to include a 4th option for Other. I do not consider men who want to be women, women. They are still men and should either be in the mens category or in Other. I don’t want to see or be liked by MEN taking pictures dressed at a woman or even worse a MAN taking pictures in a bikini when their junk is still attached and showing. It is definitely not suitable for minors to be seeing it and let’s all be honest, it’s mostly minors who use the app. Please fix this issue tinder or else you’ll see a huge decline of users on your platform who don’t believe in that woke garbage. If they are born a man they should either select man or other and shouldn’t be shown to those of us who are normal people(heterosexual). These people are mentally ill and groomers who need help and definitely don’t need to be targeting our youth anymore than they already are. And don’t dare take down this review just because it hurts someone’s feeling. It’s my 1st amendment right to say my opinion and if you don’t like it I’ll take you to court on infringing on my 1st amendment. I’ll be documenting and recording my review..GezzyqueffyVersion: 13.15.0
Fun while it lastedWell it was fun while it lasted but it looks like tinder is finally pay to win now. Started out small with taking away the amount of likes you had every 12 hours. Than they took away the super like feature, unless you pay for it, and then they started to shadow banned accounts that were not signed up for tinder gold. For the last few months the work around to all this was to make a new account every couple of weeks. New accounts get shown as normal but then after 2-3 weeks you were shadow banned. No big deal just delete your account and make a new one but it looks like the money hungry leeches at tinder caught on. You can’t delete your account anymore and instead of being shown for 2-3 weeks you are now only shown for 24 hours. You are still able to swipe on people however it doesn’t matter. No matter if you swipe right or left on someone you will still be shown their account each time you log back on. I came across the same accounts 9 times in a row. You now have unlimited likes but again this is worthless as your likes don’t mean anything because the people you like won’t see it. I really liked tinder. Was my go to dating app and I had nothing but positives to say about it for the past few years. But now I guess it is officially dead unless your fork over some cash..Td8699Version: 12.23.0
Fix this pleaseI love the app. I really do. I used to be scared of people, too scared to even see food delivery drivers. I can't handle going to bars to meet people and I don't go out much. I used tinder to make friends and partners, and be able to meet them. I used the app for multiple years and even spent a lot of money on it. But the reason my rating is low is because the feeling i have right now. Recently, i'd been getting pop ups that made me redo the same test over and over to prove i'm human. And then when I went to get on today and respond to someone I was going to meet, it said I was banned. I get there are a lot of bot accounts and whatnot. But I've been loyally using tinder for years and wanted to keep doing so. There should be an appeal of some sort. Adapting a "you're banned no matter what" stance is unfair to your consumers. If it has happened to me, I can only imagine who else has dealt with. I, nor anyone else, went through the loops and holes to pay or get verified just to be banned out of nowhere. Imagine you actually get a strong connection with someone and are about to meet them. Then BAM, you're banned and will probably never speak to that person again. All the other features I love, and really hope Tinder fixes this issue so that I can have my account back..SpaceyMuttVersion: 13.7.0
Banned for no reasonLike other reviewers, I was banned for no reason. Lately the app was glitchy for me. My profile disappeared from matches and then reappeared. It was odd. So, I had to delete and then redownload the app twice in the last day. Maybe that triggered the ban…? They never explain why & just send you their terms & community guidelines which I doubt they have read because I did nothing that violated it. There was nothing in my profile or correspondences that was against their terms. Everything I wrote was a G rating. I wonder if the men who send 🍆pics are still on there. I guess it’s time to find another route to meet people. Sad because I had some interesting matches which are now dead in their tracks. Incredibly disappointing since the ban seems so random and unwarranted. And, they prompted me to report a match which was ridiculous. The guy, who was visiting NYC from London, wrote that he met up with friends & visited some galleries. Nothing in our conversation was controversial. I know there are so many people on Tinder, but beware. They behave like a bouncer at a hot club & this could happen to you. Oh, and there’s no warning whatsoever. And in this climate with so many angry men, it’s just ridiculous that they don’t do any research into why people are reported. I get way more customer support from Poshmark if there’s a dispute..Bianca144Version: 14.4.0
Why did I get banned?Now typically I wouldn’t get upset over something so silly but the fact that I’ve never been banned from anything and that I actually didn’t do anything wrong really bothers me. I read through all your terms and conditions and thought maybe I made an honest mistake and somehow violated them but no. I did not violate your terms and conditions and I have no idea why you banned me. I’m gonna take it as a sign that I just shouldn’t be on Tinder but I mean still. Plus this app has no way to like fight the ban or even be reconsidered unless you are simply under review which is kinda dumb. I’m a real 21 yr old female, who is from American and currently lives in Italy for my job and I was literally on Tinder for a day but my phone service was not operating correctly so I tried deleting my account but it wouldn’t let me so I paused it. Then when my phone started to operate correctly again I tried to log back in to unpause my account and it said I was banned. None of my photos are copyright and there’s no way I could’ve gotten reported or anything when my phone was so messed up I couldn’t get any matches like it just kept putting the same people up over and over. Maybe you should ban the app instead of me. Whether it be my phone service or just your app bugging out, who knows but it definitely is not my fault..AlexRuck99Version: 12.20.0
Tinder BanI’ve been using tinder for years. I’ve never had any issues with it. Two days ago my account randomly disappeared from the app. My account disappeared and neither my Facebook (which was connected to it), phone number, or email were recognized by tinder. I contact costumer support and they give me a few options. That’s when I remember I’m also connected to the app through my laptop. I check and my account still exists. Somehow that brings back my account on the mobile app. Problem solved right? Last night I match with a person, reach out to them. They reply with a rude response so I report them and they’re unmatched. Today I go on to the app to discover I’ve somehow been banned. No reason given. The only connection I could think was the random glitch two days before or me reporting someone for rude behavior. Strangely enough my account still exists on my computer so I’m assuming this is another glitch. I have Tinder Platinum for another week so this makes the problem more annoying. Based on the recent reviews other people our getting banned. I hope this gets resolved or the app makes a statement. My advice if you’re planning on using Tinder avoid paying for a description on the chance you’re banned out of nowhere. At least until the app recognizes there are issues and attempts to fix them..Promicin92Version: 12.11.1
Banned by botsDo not get Tinder. I had the app for a long time when it came out, never had an issue. I recently got the app and decided let’s go premium. Two days later I was shadow banned and then emailed saying “my bad, you are visible”. Because of this I downloaded Hinge. On Tinder I have only matched with bots that want Snapchats so they can try to sell their content, one in every 10 being a real person. Then all of a sudden I log in one day to see that I was Banned. I reached out to the company via email only to get the answer that they have no information on why I was banned and are unable to look into it. A week later I was banned for the reason that Match owns Tinder and Hinge along with other apps. Hinge told me that Tinder would be able to provide me with information on why I was banned, when I reached out to them again I was replied with this. “Unfortunately even with no proof that you have violated the terms and policies we have in place, we cannot undo the process we have taken. We have no way to appeal banned accounts. Based off of information we have on your account, it was reported multiple times by users who no longer use the app. Thanks.” So they basically confessed that I was banned by bots and have no way to look into it. Don’t get the app, at least Hinge has a nice customer service email..Baron527Version: 13.22.0
Shady practices and easily exploited moderationMy complaints with tinder primarily fall into two categories: auto-moderation and the gender ratio. Moderation is automated, with profiles being banned automatically after receiving *any* three reports, regardless of their validity or content. This is a common way to cut costs that is known to be easily exploitable by users. Men and women maliciously false report each other for rejection or not replying fast enough, leading to automated bans that cannot be contested. You can find videos of so-called “pickup artists” getting women banned after exchanging phone numbers so there will be less competition for her attention. I personally was banned after not replying to women for two weeks; several of them falsely reported me out of revenge and tinder support refuses to review the situation. Tinder’s male-to-female ratio is notoriously poor, in some regions being as bad as 9-to-1 according to one study. This leads to unhappiness for everyone, as women are spammed and men are ignored. To give the impression of there being more women, tinder ignores your search preferences and shows you women far outside of your age and geographic ranges. I do not want to date 18 year olds, they cannot hold a conversation. If you want to see women no less than X years old, you must set your minimum age to X+3 in my experience. This is clearly not a bug..Robert MacTenjVersion: 13.10.1
Disappearing matches and app liesIve noticed that sometimes when i get a match the entire profile ive matched with just goes away out of nowhere. At first, i thought it was because they chose to unmatch since thats happened before but then a few days later they will reappear but the conversations ive had with them will be gone. I once got 7 matches in one day and had fairly good talks with all of them but then they all disappear. Then a few days later they're all back with no notifications or anything they're just back so now it looks like im ignoring them. The app also lies to you about how many people are in your area to keep you on longer because if it really helped people to delete the app and actually find someone they'd lose money. I know this because after swipping for a few minutes the app will tell me to increase my range because no one is left. But coincidentally all of my top 10 picks for weeks will all be within 10 miles of me. And when i increase my distance range there will still be people in my area even though the app just told me no one is left. Terrible app that lies to you to make money and buggy matches. If you end up actually having a good talk with someone just get their snap and delete this app.ShfiekVersion: 13.8.0
FIX YOUR APP AND SITEI normally love Tinder and with their newest updates they include the ability to share a lot more information about yourself than you could before (if you smoke, are 420 friendly, are in college, etc) and you can even specify what you are looking for as far as a long term, short term, or hookup which is immensely helpful. HOWEVER, all of these great features are COMPLETELY WORTHLESS when I am not matching with ANYONE and I can’t see the messages my matches are sending me. I must have swiped through 200+ with no matches AT ALL. NONE. That’s incredibly abnormal based on my use of Tinder up to this point. One match who I was really interested in and talked to for a day, I couldn’t see his messages at all when he was trying to contact me after our first initial chat. Luckily I was able to reconnect with him on Instagram after I realized I wasn’t seeing his messages. He then sent me a screenshot that showed all the messages he sent that I did not receive. I’m not sure if these issues apply exclusively to the app though because I tried on their site and had the same problems. And I must have messed with my settings and deleted and reinstalled the app on my phone 10 times, and still nothing worked. The match I reconnected with told me Tinder has also been buggy for him as well. FIX YOUR APP, TINDER..Misfitglory182Version: 13.21.0
Admitted to banning my by accident - now blocked foreverI’m like the thousands of others who left a one star review about being banned for no reason at all. My account was banned. I have the most vanilla account on the planet and was certain it was an error. Tinder responded and admitted it was their error and that my account was banned (forever) because it was accidentally flagged as a spam account. Then they proceed to tell me to sign up again, but that’s impossible because you have to use your phone number to sign up (you can’t use a burn number) and my phone number is forever banned. So thanks Tinder for having the worst algorithm on the planet that bans real accounts FOREVER with no way for those people to ever get back on the app. You have an obligation to have a more sensitive and compassionate process around this. You know many of the people on your app are already feeling rejected, lonely, and depressed, and you make it worse by banning them from a way to connect with others and accusing them of doing something they didn’t do. It’s so wrong on so many levels. I mean does anyone on your team actually read these reviews?! You would think you would change the process of banning accounts by now given the thousands of complaints that say they all experienced the exact same thing..Loren KLDVersion: 13.23.0
Banned for no reason/without explanationI have noticed that tinder doesn’t reply to these. Many of my friend use this app and have noticed they will randomly get banned after paying, as it happened to me as well. I personally think they either need to set up a appeal process or renew everything on the app process. I know tinder isn’t about to even reply to this, but I just want it to be known that all of my friends are coming over to one Star this app until they set something up to make this process better for everyone. It is honestly ridiculous you can let people looking for thirds who play themselves as females to harass people about it or you get the people who will just report you for not replying why is that even an option on the reporting. Sometimes people can’t reply because the app is so freaking glitchy that messages sometimes don’t appear. Y’all advertise tinder as a great app but in reality if people are always complaining from what I’ve noticed about the glitching or having to get whole new numbers and phones to make a new account. It’s honestly sad seeing how bad this app can get like how do you not have a support line or even email that gives people an actual reasoning to why they were banned ect. Have fun hinge is way better y’all go there they are also cheaper.HarmoinoVersion: 12.20.0
Worst Dating App with no way to get unbannedI had this app for over a few years. Then one day someone got my profile information and started uploading explicit pictures on my profile. Instead of emailing me, texting me, or trying to contact me about the situation they banned my account. I went to Tinders website to try and plead my case and repeal their decision. I could not find any such place on their website except a customer service email. I emailed them to try and and explain my situation, but was left with “at this time there is no repeal process put in place to allow someone the opportunity to be unbanned”. I don’t understand how in a world where people are constantly getting hacked that they have no plan or repeal process for situations like this. I tried making a new account with a new email and tried making new social media’s. Unfortunately they have linked my banned account to my phone and everything on my phone. It’s fine, I’ll spend my time, energy, and money on different apps like bumble and hinge. This inferior app has so many other problems with it, I’m sure I won’t miss it. Will never recommend this to anyone looking to use dating apps. I will always tell people from now on not to use this one because of the constant sexually charged males harassing women over this app..TD0625Version: 12.20.0
On the Decline - New Features Make it Buggy and UnuseableUPDATE: App is completely useless and unusable now. Every time I send a message, it doesn't show up in the chat. Any time I type a message, the keyboard glitches and lags. App constantly crashes and freezes. Pictures and videos get removed for no reason, without any explanation why. Matches will randomly disappear and reappear again. This is with the most CURRENT and UP TO DATE version. Deleting this app now. Previous review: Tinder used to be a simple app - fast loading, easy to use, worth paying the cheap price for premium. It was perfect 5 years ago. Now the app has added so many over the top, ridiculous, useless features that everyone hates. Other users on the app immediately give you their phone number or social media handle right away because the app is so bad. Messages don't refresh unless you close and reopen the app several times, trying to type has significant lag and delay, the app randomly freezes and crashes constantly. If you listen to music while using it, it will cause your music to glitch too. My phone has been significantly slower since downloading the app, its like simulating what an iPhone virus would be like. Overall an irritating, buggy, glitchy, slow app that gets worse every update..SixcollarsVersion: 13.8.0
Tinder is a scamI wish I’d have read the other reviews before paying for the “Gold” package. I recently went through a break up and considering I’m not from the place I am now living I thought I’d jump on Tinder and meet some people. I literally was only trying to meet people for friendship. Things are going okay, I’ve met a couple cool people, shared some music, seems all good, open the app up about 4-5 days later: YOUR ACCOUNT HAS BEEN BANNED. For absolutely no reason at all. I read every single word it the terms of agreement and the guidelines, I did not violate a single one. I was never disrespectful to anyone, if someone never responded to my “hello” or stopped responding when we were messaging back and forth I wouldn’t send another message, I wasn’t even on the app to find hook ups in the first place. Tinder is operating outside the lines of good business practice. You can’t contact them in any meaningful way whatsoever, they have no appeal process, nothing. Tinder is a sham. Apple should be ashamed of themselves for even allowing them in the App Store. I have now read through hundreds of reviews, Reddit and Quora posts and posts elsewhere explains this exact same situation. Tinder is banning paying customers for no reason, with no explanation and keeping their money. They are taking advantage of people simply looking to meet other people. Tinder is trash..JunkMonster86Version: 12.4.0
Completely fraudulentI’m far from the only person who experienced this, but in case someone who doesn’t know and is thinking of getting this app is reading this: Tinder and pretty much all dating apps are scams to get you to shell out money to them and keep shelling out money to them. They prey on loneliness. Maybe once they worked, but not anymore. You sign up with a basic account, no money, and you see you’re getting likes. Then you pay for a membership and the likes disappear. And no matter how much you swipe, super like, or boost, they don’t come back. It took me too long to realize that Tinder’s hope is that you’ll pay them more money after paying for a subscription. And they’ll do anything, including lie about their predatory business practices, in order to bleed you dry. Especially if you’re a guy, you have next to no chance of finding love on this app. Stay away from Tinder, Hinge, and any other dating apps run by the “Match Group.” They’re not really dating apps anymore. They’re money farms that use people’s - especially men’s - loneliness to make money. I can’t think of anything more despicable and demoralizing. Save yourself the money and the heartache. Do not, under any circumstances, download a dating app. But if you must download a dating app, download a different one than this..JustACityBoy96Version: 14.3.0
Terrible AppTo start things off Tinder is filled with bots, every second match I get in tinder is some “girl” trying to give you a massage and send you to a website. They don’t do any background checks on the people who join to make sure they are human. Secondly they spam it with advertisements and every 7th person you swipe on is an ad. Thirdly the amount of times it tells you, “you need to upgrade to get women to match with you” is incredibly annoying. Fourth, if you swipe right on everyone on the app Tinder actually throttles how many people you can match with. The first day I ran a test and swiped on every girl, I managed to go through about 40 women before it said I’m out of swipes. Next day I do it and get about 20. Now when I load the app I swipe on about 4 women before I have to upgrade my account because Ive ran out of swipes. It’s very unfair and flawed. Lastly they have these stupid “swipe surges” and other random events that “guarantee you’ll match with someone.” Ive gone to about 4 of these events (and by go I mean had the app open) and haven’t matched with anyone, and yes I know it’s all about appearances, and I wouldn’t say I’m ugly nor attractive but still. This app is a huge scam, waste of time, try something like Bumble or Facebook Dating. 1000% better than this trash app..Jay'sCraftVersion: 12.14.0
Banned for no reasonUpdate: I’m afraid I also have been banned for no reason. I used to read these reviews and roll my eyes like people can’t be banned for no reason — must have done something. Nope. I’ve been permanently banned for absolutely nothing. I’m never even remotely mean or inappropriate. It must be an automated system when someone claims anything. Which is not a business I want to support. Maybe an ex saw me or something. After 6 years and many subscriptions, tinder has lost me permanently. Sad to say but it’s ironically not my choice ———————— Used to be decent. Now they’re giving out free passport apparently? But you can’t control if you swipe on people genuinely local, or those using passport “pretending” to be local actually 8k miles away. So now, 19/20 swipes are from random profiles around the world. Different languages, countries, with high language barrier and zero intention to come to your area. It has completely ruined the entire experience and made it impossible to use tinder for what it was created to do — get to know people around you to find a partner / friends. Not make virtual pen pals who are messing around. Add in the horrific allegations about their CEO, their horrible customer service, and pathetic squeeze for money, this is how a five star app became useless, nearly overnight..Da SaberVersion: 12.10.1
Absolutely Terrible!!Tinder has so many glitches it is not even funny. I had so many issues with the site. At some point in time, Tinder decided to just stop my account from working. I was texting a couple matches who verified all our messages disappeared and they weren’t receiving any of my messages. I tried messaging Tinder and no response. I decided to delete the old account and create a new account losing all my contacts from before. After creating a new account, someone flagged my new account, and got put on a hold for a bit with no reason why or anything. It apparently got squared away after a day again with no explanation. Now out of the blue, Tinder once again just banned me permanently for no reason while I was talking to a few people that could have been real connections! Now when I try to log on or create an account it says I am permanently banned! I am still trying to wrap my head around it, but I wouldn’t use Tinder ever again after this experience! The sad thing is that there were some really great connections I had made and was in the process and either meeting or about to text before all of this went down and no way now for me to connect with them! Terrible service who truly don’t care about connections! I will stick to Hinge!.Jmac.AttackVersion: 13.5.0
Money fishing app.I used tinder a few years ago, it was a lot different. I was getting likes on my profile every day, at least one, I paid for the gold once for a month and I eventually found a girl that I dated for the last 3 years. We split up and I chose to download tinder again assuming that I would have the same experience. This is not the case, now there’s 4 different memberships to choose from, you have to pay for everything. I started out for the first 2 months not paying a penny, I would get 3-4 likes on my profile a week at least. As soon as I paid for the gold membership for the last month, I have yet to receive a SINGLE like on my profile but I am getting tons more push notifications to buy or pay for boosts or super likes. Not to mention only about 1/6 people that do like my profile don’t send me a message at all, leading me to believe those are the fake profiles that tinder makes to keep people hooked on buying and paying for extra stuff. I’m not an ugly guy either, I know I’m not that boring to talk to either as I don’t ask dead end questions or talk about myself almost at all unless asked. I do not recommend to use this app unless you are casually swiping and don’t mind being bombarded with ads to pay for things..Caden LymanVersion: 13.23.0
Shallow and FruitlessImagine a slot machine where you invest your time, money, and dignity only to receive fleeting moments of self-worth while gradually deteriorating your self-esteem until you’re hardly sure of your own value. This is Tinder. I have paid for Tinder platinum for 3 months now, I have spent countless hours swiping, editing and adjusting every small detail of my profile, used all the boosts and super likes and still have ultimately made little to zero progress in the dating realm. Now I know what you’re thinking, I must be doing something wrong, being creepy, boring, or not posting the right pictures or something but I try my best to avoid those specific issues as best as possible. I’ve had more success on hinge without even paying a dime for their service and yet here it feels like they are constantly demanding you for money just to be slightly prioritized for a very short period of time. Not to mention the sheer amount of bots, fake accounts, and people simply not using the app, or only using it to promote their brand is frustrating to say the least. I’m just not sure there’s much you can get from this app other than shallow physical encounters. There is not one other app that has caused me such mental anguish. I wish I could say anything different..BartledoboyVersion: 13.21.0
Please Help All Of Us !!!!! Banning everyone is not workingI love tinder I’ve used it on and off for years and never had a problem. One day one of my friends were banned we were both confused as they did nothing wrong and the next day I was banned as well doing nothing at all that would break rules and regulations of tinder. Even more confused we decided to see if others were getting banned for no reason I’m seeing so many complaints on social media from people getting banned for no reason. I have been trying to be patient and wait for news of y’all allowing and people to file some sort of annulment or complaint but have seen none. I’ve emailed you twice with nothing but a copy paste explanation saying I violated the terms of service and community guidelines. I’ve read over all of them several times and have not violated any. This is extremely frustrating and I’m starting to think I’m being hacked or the whole app is being unfair to users or people are being banned for petty reasons by others such as getting flagging for example not answering. innocent people are being banned. I want my account reactivated I’ve given you my time, my money, and my hope for something more using tinder and I’m extremely disappointed. Please help me..LunaRose244Version: 13.3.0
Scam to get money then Bann youDo not get and definitely do not put money into tinder. Users are describing having issues the erase conversations for one person and the other still sees them there’s nothing but bots basically all the issues you can have in dating apps exist in tinder and they will never fix them. I was banned for unforeseen reasons and no given no means of correcting this issue and was even about to pay premium for this app before I got banned. Used to tinder for three years and I have no clue why my account was banned so I am probably going to do the same thing again somewhere else. You can’t make another profile because it all connects through Facebook. I now realize that I also had the bug where you don’t see your matches in your match list they keep disappearing and coming back. My conversations were also disappearing and coming back it would be days and weeks in between. I will never use dating apps again I’m just going to use Facebook dating if anything and that’s it this app has ruined all dating apps for me that’s how bad this app is. This app is trash. 👎🏼👎🏼👎🏼👎🏼👎🏼👎🏼👎🏼👎🏼👎🏼👎🏼👎🏼👎🏼👎🏼👎🏼👎🏼👎🏼👎🏼👎🏼👎🏼👎🏼👎🏼👎🏼👎🏼👎🏼👎🏼👎🏼👎🏼👎🏼👎🏼👎🏼👎🏼👎🏼👎🏼👎🏼👎🏼👎🏼👎🏼👎🏼👎🏼👎🏼👎🏼👎🏼👎🏼👎🏼👎🏼👎🏼👎🏼👎🏼👎🏼👎🏼👎🏼👎🏼.ShhutfgVersion: 12.18.0
Getting banned for life with no detailed explanation or refundEventually you will get banned for life with the only explanation is that you violated their terms of service. No warning and no indication of what you supposedly did. If you are a paying Member, and you get banned they keep your money with no refund. With people easily offended, and the ease to report another Member on the app, just stating in your profile that you’re “super straight” will eventually trigger some people as offensive and will report you as offensive behavior and you will get banned for life. Of course you have to be a match to report someone, but people can match just for the purpose of reporting you because they are offended by information in your profile; political views, race, age, sexuality, and once matched, report you as offensive. Also they are shady on their Membership costs and overcharge more than what they quote. Before I became a paying Member, I would get pop ups of their Membership packages (months/cost). First time I bought a 6mo gold package and was charged a little more than the cost quoted in the pop up. Next Membership I upgraded to 6mo platinum and was charged over $160 (which was substantially more than the amount quoted in the pop up) and I was banned a week later..1stTymeWritingA-reviwVersion: 12.11.0
I got banned for no reasonI don’t understand the terms and policy of this app what so ever. I was banned for no reason. All of my photos are appropriate and my bio did not have anything close to being worthy of being banned. It seems like tinder has a very flawed system in which it bans whoever it likes without giving any warning or notifications on why you were banned. This is an abuse of power right here from an app that has too much power. You can’t even appeal the reason why you were banned. It just doesn’t make sense to me. I’ve had my profile since 2015. I have deleted it every now and then to take a break from it. But redownloading it recently and have been using it for the past week, everything was fine. Until today, this afternoon I went onto the app to find out I was banned. If this is how Tinder works and does things, by asking for personal information, wanting a bio and having you do so much to make a profile, just seems like a huge breach of privacy and an abuse of power. I recommend anyone that wants to use this app, to not even download it. Because the amount of times I’ve seen my friends use this app, just to get banned for no reason, kind of blows my mind. Again, I highly suggest no one downloads this app at all..SeekAndDes7roy2Version: 12.9.0
Très sexisteLes filles que je connais peuvent voir les gars qu’ils l’ ont like sans avoir le Tinder Premium. Nous les gars, on doit payer si on désire voir les filles qui nous ont like. Tellement sexiste!!!!.Tomix124Version: 11.29.0

Banned for no reasonI made an account awhile ago but I wasn’t 18. I just turned 18 today so I went on the app and tried to log in but it says I’m banned?? Customer service refuses to help. This is ridiculous. I haven’t even used the app so how is it possible that I’m banned???? Worst app ever🙄.Skyler3333Version: 11.23.0
Disgrace..This app is a disgrace and should be SHUT down immediately. Do not and I mean do not waste your money on this crap they just take your money and show likes but you never match even with payment, greed will be Tinder’s downfall remember these words..Stacy 2129Version: 11.26.0

Ban hammer for no reasonWelp, looks like I’m now one of the many people who got banned off tinder for absolutely no reason. Guilty until proven innocent I guess..MariouchioVersion: 11.23.0
Sexual assaultMatched with a girl, was going really well until we realized we had a mutual acquaintance. Turned out her best friend is the person who sexually assaulted me 5 years ago. She didn’t believe me, said I was gaslighting and reported my account. Tinder banned me overnight but kept my subscription active. When I tried to log back in Tinder informed me I would never be able to have another account linked to any of my existing accounts or phone numbers. She was the first person I felt safe enough to tell..MajoronVersion: 12.7.0
Another person banned without reasonI’m seeing loads of people her being banned for no reason whatsoever, or because they were too young, which, when i first downloaded tinder i was 17, but this was before tinder made itself 18+, my account worked for about a year but after i had already turned 18 i somehow got banned. at first i thought this was because people who i had called out for their blatant racism (ie calling black children monkeys, or non-black people using the n-word) were mad and reported me, but how in the hell are we supposed to “correct” whatever behaviour doesn’t align with tinder’s terms and conditions if we are never told why we were banned? anyways, now i use bumble which i prefer to tinder, as it allows people who identify as women/femmes to initiate the conversation, and while you can still send photos, they are censored until you purposely click them, so as to protect you from unsolicited nudes. anyways, delete tinder and download bumble y’all :).HroskdnakmahdVersion: 11.26.0
Banned for no reason :/I think the app took one of my jokes too seriously and now i’m banned. I have no idea why I could be banned except for maybe a flirty joke I made….i always tried to use the app respectfully and honestly i was a big advocate for this app until i heard about the random banning it does sometimes :/ sad it totally interrupted the convo i was having..SnizzyizVersion: 12.11.1
What is wrong with Tinder?I am just getting back into dating pool and was going to try Tinder but after reading all the reviews about people getting banned for no reason (or so they claim) no way am I planning to use this app. There are literally dozens of these complaints. What is most concerning is that Tinder developers don't even try to respond or explain what might be going on. That is really poor customer relations. Glad these apps have reviews at least to warn others. So thanks for the warning..MountaingoatheadsoupVersion: 11.25.0
Disappointed by thisI was banned from the app and I have absolutely no idea what I could have done wrong. I did not violate any terms or conditions so I put in a request and the customer service did not help me at all. I was enjoying conversations and now I have lost contact with the people. Not happy at all..HcaitlinVersion: 11.28.0
TINDER GOLD GETS YOU BANNEDHi all, I gave this review because my account got banned for absolutely no reason. I looked it up online and apparently this suddenly happens to a lot of guys without wanting. I can assure you I had done absolutely nothing wrong; no nudity, no bad messages, no racism or insults thrown. I even had gold! And yet they still ban you, there’s obviously a glitch in the system, and Tinder needs to work on this. I think maybe because gold gives you more accessibility, and so more people are there to report you, even if it’s for no reason..TjsherpaVersion: 11.26.1

Got bandThis is the second time this is happened and it’s really frustrating as I’ve paid for a membership for tinder gold both times in my account randomly gets banned after I reach a certain number of matches and I really don’t understand if there’s anyone contact me and help me figure this out with my account or give me my subscription back that be very helpful because I don’t believe I have broken any other can you drive lines and I’d be more than willing to talk to someone, One minute I was OK on the app within the same hour then the next it said my account was banned.Boosa0990Version: 11.25.0
Banned for no reasonShould be a review process to be unbanned.HannahffffffVersion: 11.23.0
Banned for absolutely no reasonThis app is complete trash, I downloaded tinder after not having it for awhile and after only 3hrs my account got banned. I emailed tinder support twice almost a week ago trying to find out why I was banned and if I could get that ban lifted and I’ve been ignored so just so people know, if they ask you to send them an email or they ask you to get in touch with them in any way don’t waste your time because they won’t help you. This isn’t the end of the world for me by any means because I can use other apps if need be but damn tinder, you need to work on your customer service big time..Bland89Version: 11.23.0

Harassment allowed ?My account got taken away because my ex reported me for solicitation with zero proof or reason other than him being petty. I wasn’t given any opportunity to prove my side and they literally removed my account without notice based on unsubstantiated claims. Now I have to get a new number to use this app if I want to. Which I won’t cause I don’t. Super misogynistic to just take women’s accounts down when someone is being vengeful but when men are flagged for actual provable harassment their accounts aren’t taken down without evidence and when evidence is given they are only suspended for a short time. What is the reason for this clear double standard?.EfIng TndrVersion: 11.23.0
IssuesI got banned because they said I was underage but even when I took pics of my driver license and submitted it, they still wouldn’t let me back in the app..Mickey6343Version: 11.28.0
Unjustly BanThe app works fine and it’s really user-friendly but it doesn’t tell us WHAT the reason is for us getting banned and there’s absolutely no way to appeal. I’ve heard from various sources if a girl reports a guy he’s banned immediately but not the other way around, takes various time’s reporting a female and they “violate” terms all the time by not showing their faces or putting images with quotes, etc. and that’s really unfair. Fix this!.MrTyrantZeroVersion: 11.26.0
ScamPlease DO NOT give your phone number to Tinder. What will happen is that they will sell your phone number to other companies. And those companies are SCAM. They will call you many times a day trying to scam you. I have used 2 different phone numbers at different times. After a few days, the number of scams calling me dramatically increased. PLEASE BE COUSCOUS..Jason-202015382Version: 11.23.0
Account bannedI don’t understand why I got banned from Tinder for no reason and I emailed support team they still didn’t do anything it’s just stupid and ridiculous.Armd121Version: 11.24.0
Customer serviceHad some girl harassing me and besides banning her I got banned for making a childish remark on my end, no block feature so I was rude. And contacted them apologizing and just letting them know she wouldn’t stop spamming and harassing me and my account gets banned, the customer service for this app is terrible,.Brayden sakowskiVersion: 11.29.0
No customer serviceHonestly this app is great, this is new way to meet tons of people. A lot of people here complaining about not having a lot of matches or people replying is on them. Having said that a lot of people here are complaining about being banned with no explanation. I am also one of those people and the only prompt i have received is that i have violated terms of use which i reviewed and have not. The only customer support they have is an automated robot which doesn’t seem to actually review your file and they don’t have a customer support number the only number i found tried scamming me. So essentially they don’t seem to care about customers they have stated they take reports seriously (bullying, abuse) which is must’ve what happened to me yet they do not check the legitimacy of the report. Although they have not considered there are people that will report out of spite / grudge which is a form of bullying and abuse so there system is in need to be updated. Disappointed in the zero customer service in a large company but such is life, seeing as i’m banned now for life this will be my last interaction with this business..Just want good qualityVersion: 11.29.0

I honestly don’t understand why there is no way to appeal a ban or even get issued a warning. I have spent hundreds of dollars on this app over the years and have had marginal success in actually meeting people (which is why I feel angry to be banned at all). I am polite, my profile was free of offensive material, but here I am. Lord forbid I have to actually meet someone the traditional way..Avstar77Version: 11.23.0

Banning people frenzyBE WARNED. We (a couple) have been on Tinder for close to 10 years. Met very nice people. But just last week, without warning and having had no contact in a very long while with any one, we received a message from Tinder when I open the app. It read: Your account has been banned from Tinder for violating our Terms of Use and/or Community Guidelines. To promote safety on our platform, we take violations of our policies seriously and don't offer an appeals process at this time. This decision is final, so you’ll no longer be able to access your account or create new accounts in the future. Trying to reach someone to get help or at the very least an idea of what we did wrong, we only got the exact same message from this very cold and bizarre organization. Now you know..JazzyYannickVersion: 13.6.0
