Scammed and blocked for no reason

Utter rubbish I have paid for it after a week as free membership don’t get you anywhere, after paying for lifetime membership talking to people with respect and just few weeks I haven’t used this app. Trying to login again and just like that been blocked, obviously after the money back period passed they are scammers and know what they are doing. That should really be enough said but for those lonely hearts out there, please, no matter how much you want to find someone, don't use this app. It's dreadful and expensive. It's predatory in nature, playing on people's desire to find a "mate". Then once you've paid, it's amazing how few people are in your area - probably because like me they've realised how crap it is. If you don't believe me, then please just start on the cheapest option so you see for yourself then delete this thing and never go back. Or better still, believe me, and don't be duped or go near it with a barge pole. Okay, enough said now.

THIEVES, THEY’LL CHARGE YOU FOR A FREE TRIAL

The app itself is horrible, you have to pay a ridiculous amount to even be able to match and chat with anyone. I subscribed for a free trial and cancelled it well before the cut off and this stupid app still charged me. When I asked customer support they were the opposite of helpful and just tried to switch the blame. DO NOT GET THIS APP!

Don’t wast your money or time

App is basically useless unless you pay for the top subscription. The first level of paid subscription only gives you extremely limited access to features and continuous requests to upgrade to access features. Distance meter is also way out . There are a lot better apps for free or less $$ I’m glad I only paid for 1 week subscription

Don’t bother

This app is a more rubbish version of plenty of fish. Anyone can send you a message before you’ve even matched with them so you get loads of unwanted messages, you can fill in your profile with photos and info but in order to get messages from people who are in your age range you have to pay for it. The look of the app is dated and poor quality and it’s just generally as a whole pretty rubbish. I thought I would give a new app a try as I saw this on tiktok being advertised but you’re better off with Bumble, Hinge and Tinder to be honest. Wouldn’t recommend.

Complete garbage

Don’t waste your time on this app. Everything is paywalled; chalked full of ads; most profiles are clearly fake; and the minimum search distance is 30 miles.

Tooo many bugs

I’ve gotten a couple of matches to which maybe 20% actually send a freaking reply back (especially since they haven’t been active in over months). But there’s a lot a pretty chicks around me. That’s besides the point tho. I have matches that have been added to my block list that STILL keep showing up in my swipe feed. For instance not to be rude or anything but a down syndrome girl clearly downloaded the app and updated pictures of her on there. I clearly didn’t want anything to do with her so I just blocked her straight up. But she keeps showing up in my feed almost every week. And kinda annoying. And this app also doesn’t record all of my matches that I pressed heart eyes to either. It’s very buggy and I see a lot of the same faces that I’ve already answered to a million times. I uninstalled the app and redownloaded and still got the same problems. It’s a solid app just pleaseeee for the love of peace fix the bugs. I think they should add a timer to people’s accounts to keep the empty profiles out. If you’re not active for over a month your account gets deleted. Or have have a recently active sticker on their profile. There’s also a lot of fake bot profiles as well. For instance I stay in Lousiana and have my distance set to 20 miles around me. But fake model girls from Houston still somehow show up in my feed and reactions. Very questionable. This app just needs a little bit of TLC. Overall cool app to meet ppl.

-10/10

If you download the app have fun paying for every feature on the app, the app is like 95% bots, the distance is horrible it will show you people half way across the state before people that’s close to you, let alone you have to pay to see people within 50kms of you, this app is a fraud and I feel sorry for the people that spend money on this app. If you feel like downloading it just go to tinder you’ll find better matches and friends on there

DONT GET THIS APP

This app is literally garbage. I was on it for a couple of days and everything was completely fine. They didn’t warn me that my account was odd or was going to be disabled for whatever reason. My account was perfectly fine without any issues. All of a sudden my account is disabled/banned and it’s gone “forever”. They said they can’t get my account back. I get irritated and I ask multiple times what i did wrong for my account to get banned and where I can’t even get it back and they don’t tell me at all. They just send me a list of rules and regulations instead of specifically telling me exactly what I did wrong. It’s like they just banned my account just to do it. So i tried asking my question again and again and telling them how it’s unfair to ban my account without any warning so I could fix it. They don’t even listen to me. So i email them directly and they STILL do not help me. So don’t even bother with this garbage app and just stick with tinder or bumble or something. Because Hinge will just randomly ban your account for no reason and won’t explain what you did wrong and then say “it’s out of their hands”. Hinge, you’re a garbage app.

Not worthy

Unknowingly I subscribed for 1 month and paid $40. Most of the profiles are fake and not verified. Even few verified profiles are fake coz I saw a girl who is Model in instagram with 1.4M followers. They will send you matches which would not respond to you( they are verified too).

Amazing!!!

I did uninstall the app, BUT because of a amazing reason 😁!!! I’ve met someone and we been together for the longest time actually even trying for kids, I wasted my time on so many people but let me tell you if you are reading this I promise this app was well worth it! I’ve even found some people to play call of duty with me! So not just dating you can also find friends to play video games instead of playing by yourself lol, also the man I met off there he is next to me he really says thank you to this app for meeting me, if anything if your looking for a relationship, really really look into their personality it did take make a bit to actually meet a guy who doesn’t want … yk.. but seriously thank you so much for this app I really recommend anyone reading download it! ;)
