Advert Scams Electronic Surfboards

Seem to be doing very little to prevent scam adverts on this app. This week everyday I have had heaps of Bingodone electronic surfboard ads. It’s a clever looking website but please do your due diligence Words With Friends - your app players will be getting scammed via your app while you make ad money.

Complaint

Warning. There is a picture of a nice looking man on words with friend nan vicent pagilinan. He is a scam. He stalks women he is using this name and pix and it’s not him. The phone number he is using is from Texas I used a anywho and paid for a search. Nothing came up then I used another site to find people I am a paralegal and know where to look. Words needs to block him from this game. There is a guy on Facebook with the name Vincent pangilinan by did not want to send him message. But women watch out this is happening on a lot of games you play with real people. He deleted me and resigned games with me lol he knew with questions I ask he ha been found out. He had at least 5 flags beside his name now he has none. So he changed some things he is axed out on playing so know he is at it again

Latest update is very annoying

I can’t find how to turn the sound down. The extras they have added are very annoying and the screen is a jumble of added options. Will stop playing when I have finished the current round of games and wait for them to tidy it up. I had originally paid for the ad free version a few years back but they never updated it and now I have the ad version as I have no Choice. Do not give them any money, it is not worth it.

Update has created more problems

Fully paid for this originally and worked well. Latest update makes it almost unusable. Once a move is made in a game and I hit the 'next game' tab it will now not open the next game!! The only way I can open the next game is to get out of the app and get back in. I also don't want suggestions of people I can play. I don't play with randoms only two friends. I'm not on Facebook so why are random people popping up?? Who is the Assistant Earl and why the bleeding hell do I need him?. Looks like they just want me to spend $ and I won't! Been using this app for years and I'm extremely disappointed.

Really ticked off

Have enjoyed the game having over 20 games going. But getting annoyed at inconsistencies - allowing some slang words n not others, misspelled words. But the biggest issue is if you lose a couple of games you then get lousy letters and that keeps continuing - that happens to my husband playing me. Proved my point by playing for him to win and guess what he starts getting decent letters. Then he lost a couple and back to lousy letters again - there is no challenge when you can make 30+ points easily every time and end up 200+ points in front. Now to make it even less fun to play - this latest update is so full of unnecessary bells n whistles you have to wait forever to play and again afterwards. How about an option to allow those who want the basic game back to be able to remove the bells n whistles they don't like? Am about to quit playing when I have finished the games I am playing

My thoughts of Word

I thoroughly enjoy playing Words With Friends but it annoys the daylight out of me that I can’t skip many of the video ads: I just don’t have the data in my phone plan to be watching adds which are of NO INTEREST TO ME. So, I have to close the app and re-open it!

Further, the number of legit words which are not permitted is an irritant but the number of “acceptable word(s) with NO DEFINITION is ridiculous! Either a word has a meaning, or, it is not a word!!!!! Thank you for deleting all you non words, IMMEDIATELY!

Words HD

I bought this HD version some time ago and now I can’t upgrade it to work on iOS 11. I’d post the screen error message but thIS doesn’t seem to have the ability to do this. I have asked before how to upgrade this PURCHASED version but grrr got no response from developer. I have to rate.... so one star in protest

I have played this game for years and basically enjoyed it, but recently in the last week or so it has become an annoying game. Twice now I have been invited to play and had to make sure I wasn't sitting on a bar stool. They strike up a conversation with come-on lines and flattery. They ask how I'm doing, then comes all the personal questions. This morning was the last straw, the so-called player completely disappeared from the game after I bombarded them with a whole list of personal questions that I feel are nothing but bs. I even asked them if they were a Russian troll. I checked all the active games and completed games I've played and the player who said he was Charles Bernard was nowhere to be found. I think you need to find out what is going on. I'm beginning to think the game is now a vehicle for hackers. I may not be coming back to it once my active games are completed. I don't need this grief.

Pauline

Yesterday I downloaded a new version of Words Classic.
I love this game to bits and play with many people but after the down load I cannot see what I am typing when I talk to others playing me... I have tried everything I can think of with help from others and it can come back, I think it's fixed then it goes away again.
The only thing I don't like about your game is not being able to email or type to a person who can help. Gone through your help list but it does not apply to my problem... I don't want to stop playing but would appreciate some help to fix it.

Never have problems

For the most part I never have any technical issues with this game! I enjoy it and play everyday. I do wish there was a way to get a full premium version with no ads. I generally would never pay for something to get rid of ads but I would for this game because I play it so much and get annoyed that a ad or video ad takes over entire screen after EVERY move! I think it is too much! Also include some of the word meters and other game helpers and I would pay. One thing that will forever bother me is scoring less for long words than many two letter words on a TW DW TL etc. it is not easy to create long words that fit somewhere in this game but to only get 8 or 9 points is so stupid IMO. Overall love the game!

Updated Sunday November 5th. Got a new iPhone 8+ upgrade went to re-download I see a words with friends classic and words with friends I download them both looking for the hindsight and the swap and I don’t see them on either game I’m wondering where everything went and what’s going on don’t ruin this game for us!!!!!
