I’m not one to complain or review, but a really bad time with an app is a really bad time with an app. I’ve had tinder for years, which has mostly put a bunch of men in front of me who say terrible or disgusting things to me in their initial messages. They seem to have a great time on tinder and have plenty of room to send such things and swipe with abandon. I was barely even engaging with the app or messaging anyone after being discouraged by so many weird experiences and rude comments. Suddenly I’m notified that I’m banned from tinder as well as hinge. No other information shared besides something involving “community guidelines”. But I’d barely even used the app, let alone said or done anything worth being banned for. It’s possible my photos had been used to catfish people, which has happened to me numerous times. It’s also possible I was targeted for my political leanings noted in my bio. Whatever the case, it just adds a lot of insult to injury to have had such a bad time on this app and then be kicked off. The whole reason I was barely engaging with it was because of the gross messages and dead end convos I’ve had over the years. And then this. I guess I should be thanking tinder for doing me a favor and ridding me of this failed endeavor, though it seems to be common amongst everyone I talk to who uses/ has used the app.
At least if you’re going to ban someone for life, you could explain where that’s coming from. Otherwise it’s possible users are being purposely targeted and falsely reported, which is what probably happened here.
Can’t really say I’m surprised though.
It is tinder, after all.
I’ve been on Tinder for 7-8 years by far was the best dating app up until covid started..
Still Keep getting matches from overseas, 99% fake profiles especially in USA for some odd reasons, Whenever I switch my location to any other countries except USA it works like before but here nothing but fake profiles and spams , They make you desperate by not getting matches until you purchase the overpriced BOOST option which still doesn’t get you any match! Downhill big time…I wonder how they can’t control the fake profiles in USA but other countries is fine so weird. Me and all my friends stopped using it or at-least not paying for the useless boost anymore so sad to see Tinder like this and funny thing their verified profiles are all fake lol who monitors this for real?
Also, If a girl doesn’t like you for whatever reason even if you’re the most respectful man but once they report your account that’s said say goodbye to your membership they don’t bother to monitor the complaints they just shut your account down but if you report a girl of course they never close their account cause they need them so you can buy more boost!! sad …
I used to love this app. I met my first serious girlfriend on tinder and met a lot of cool and interesting people through the app. However, my love for the app quickly faded after I tried to log on one day and I had been banned with no explanation. I had been nothing but respectful to my matches and I had violated no terms of use so naturally I was confused. Upon reading other negative reviews for tinder it seems this is a pretty common occurrence. For some reason there is no appeal process for a ban which just blows my mind considering they clearly ban a ridiculous amount of people for no apparent reason. And if you ask the support team for the reason for the ban they will not give you it and pretty much tell you to piss off... I understand the importance of maintaining safety and respect on a dating app but there should be an appeal process for wrongful bans. I really miss using this app and I hope one day they will fix the banning issue and relook at erroneous bans.
There are a ton of fake accounts and users that are on tinder solely to get users to their paid content on other sites where they sell or insinuate the sale or offer of adult or sexual content. When a profile has a link to IG or snap it is a stepping stone to get a user to onlyfans or another paid site.
Tinders rates for likes and boosts are outrageous when you consider an average user is inundated with requests for service that don’t include dating.
I am sure tinder loves this because a onlyfans girl is making them a ton of money off of supper likes.
I report the onlyfans accts and the same ones are back the next day, but I know friends who have gotten a lifetime ban for sarcasm. Seems tinder want the onlyfans users to keep generating cash.
Ban links in text to IG, Snap, and so on and ban pictures with snap and onlyfans handles in them. Please revert to being A DATING APP and not a Craigslist board for adult content!
Aside from the fact that Tinder has no contacts or way to reach them so you can't get a refund after you purchase this app is a giant scam. If you are not above average looking the algorithm makes it nearly impossible to be seen because you're drowned out by other users instead of seeing active people nearby like it used to be. If you don't know that this app is rigged against you in every shape and form you'll be convinced that you're either unattractive or just ugly and I can say with confidence it started making me depressed before I found it. Don't buy premium it makes no difference. The algorithm is so rigged against you I was convinced I was shadow banned (which happens to many people, you can buy premium and still nobody will see you based on your unofficial ban status). This app is a giant waste of money, time and mental health. Don't get this and don't support the garbage people profiting off of lonely people.
I was banned completely out of the blue without any reason giving besides “violating guidelines.” I’m assuming someone I accidentally left on read reported me for something random. I’d only messaged a few people the last mount and it was to give them my social media since I’m not active enough on tinder. But instead of looking into it, tinder just banned my account and banned me from making any accounts in the future. The instructions said to unsubscribe and delete. I contacted support because I had already paid for premium for a year and had only had the app a few months. I sent them my ID in case someone reported me as underage, stated I did not violate the guidelines and wanted proof or my money or account back. I got an automated response saying I violated guidelines- again, no specifics - and that there was no appeal process. My account is banned and the money I spent on it is wasted. Great customer service🙄
I don't appreciate them involving their business in politics aka donating large amounts of money to republican candidates.
Dating apps should not get involved and should be neutral - plus they are supposed to support LGBT matching for relationships, yet they are supporting a party that wants to cancel LGBT rights and marriage.
They claim they want to make a safe place for women to online date- yeah right!
"Popular Information reported that Match, the popular dating company that also owns Tinder, Hinge, and OkCupid, had recently donated over $100,000 to the Republican Attorneys General Association — a political group working to eliminate abortion rights nationwide."
It's time to boycott these garbage companies. They do nothing to keep women safe while they capitalise off objectifying us and turning us into consumer goods, and actively work towards denying us rights! Please spread the word!
My tinder account has been under review for 24 hours now , i got to know to people that i liked and now i can not contact them anymore, i wanna delete tinder and download another dating app but i do not feel safe leaving my account with pictures and information to the unknown , i do not know what to do and this is real frustrating..
Note : now they said im banned forever!!
This really unprofessional, to ban accounts randomly, I’ve been really respectful and nice to everyone is this app and its been only 2 days using it and i have contact tinder via email to discuss my problem and they said they’re gonna solve it and bam they banned me forever!!
Me as a person who suffers from anxiety and communication problems the app helped me a lot for the first couple of days, and now i wouldn’t stop thinking of why they banned me randomly!!
I cannot in good conscience continue using an app owned by Match Group. Match (Tinder/OKCupid/Hinge) donated more than $100k in 2021 to Republican Attorneys General Association, which constantly pledged that their donations go towards efforts in removing the constitutional right to choose, as has unfortunately become the reality in this country last month. Receiving notifications and statements from Tinder/Hinge re: claiming their alleged “solidarity” with all women feels absolutely sickening when the company itself contributed to this devastating regression in human rights. Please remove all affiliations with this and any anti-abortion group and take TANGIBLE ACTION WITH YOUR FINANCES for the betterment of women in this country.
I was banned and they couldn’t even explain why! I had spoken with three different employees of tinder. The most helpful one said she would get someone to look further into it. The other two just said I violated terms or something along the lines of that and I had done nothing wrong! Bad customer service as well as issue resolving skills! I’d never recommend this app to anyone now and will forever speak poorly of it! Don’t waste your time looking for someone on this app when there are others better and more willing to help you meet people! Tinder needs to read their guidelines and terms better to understand why they randomly ban people!
