I was talking to someone for a little bit today and it now wants me to pay in order to continue the conversation with them . ### 1/5 — This app is trash *2023-03-05, version 1.2.9* This app makes you pay after a ehilr , it just shows a screen literally demanding money to talk more. ### 1/5 — SUPER SCAM *2023-03-04, version 1.2.9* Y’all already see the other reviews.

Doesn’t make you pay just to talk to someone ### 1/5 — Scam *2023-02-27, version 1.2.9* They probably hire people to talk to you pretending to be interested and want to meet up but as soon as you try t send a phone number or anything they make you pay 35+ dollars and then don’t even reply or text you back like none of the girls on this app that are like smoke shows which is probably a lot of fake girl profiles stolen from tinder, I know it was a scam but hey 35 dollars to potentially meet the love of your life any sound to bad!

Then all users you talk to are either active or ALWAYS active, not reading any of your messages. I can understand a scam account or two but the app as a whole is nothing but scam. ### 1/5 — Scamm *2023-05-22* This app is so trash all this is fake i spend my money on this app for nothing i was txt before with someone an then boom the said that i need to pay and after that i pay and i txt the same person and no one answered this is all fakeeee ### 1/5 — This app should be banned *2023-05-14* Honestly one of the worst dating apps out there, it’s all about the money. I know people who tried this app out. Just go out to a bar or club and meet someone there because Your paying to talk to bots guys!!!! There are some real people here but you have to pay to send them a message and they have to pay to send one back so you won’t get any replies because who wants to pay to send a message each time?? Apps like this should get banned from all networks, please don’t download or give in to this fraud!!!! and try to have them revoked completely instead. ### 1/5 — Scam *2023-05-11* Don’t get or pay for this app at all. This is a big scam. You start off good thinking you have found a great app and then boom. They lock you out and you have to pay so you continue. And when you do, then you have to pay to see who likes you, then pay to message people back, and also pay for everything else. Like what’s the point of this? And then not only that everyone looks like it was made by the app. It shows you they’re close and real but it’s all fake. The whole app is fake. They got me I give them that. But please don’t download it. It’s pointless and stupid. ### 1/5 — Fake profiles *2023-05-08* It’s scam, they are hiring some people as beautiful girls, they will start to talk with you and when you want to get the number, the app will lock your account until you pay $59. All the girls are totally fake. ### 1/5 — The news you need to catch up on (lol) *2023-05-03* This app is utterly disgusting, I was using your app “catch up” and I was talking to someone, and it made me pay to talk to her and respond. I was stupid to buy coins for the app thinking that I could talk to her and it said I had to pay an out rages amount. ### 1/5 — Rip off *2023-04-24* Downloaded it and didn’t have to pay anything any now all of a sudden I lost all my conversations, matches, and likes to pay for a membership. Best part is that if you don’t pay you can’t use the app. ### 1/5 — Problems that need fixed *2023-04-14* This app does not work right I was talking to someone and then all of a sudden they stopped responding like they were not receiving any messages please fix this problem Everyone was good for the first hour and then I had to reinstall the app and my conversations got erased my account got deleted and now I can’t use the stupid app ### 1/5 — Scam *2023-03-08, version 1.2.9* Dont try to used this app I found tuis app on tick tock and is waste your time this is bad social experience from my experience was this make you pay a lot money and nothing happens don’t ustedes this app period 😠 ### 1/5 — Scam *2023-03-07, version 1.2.9* Literally made me pay to continue a convo and wanted me to pay again to text the person back a wast of time and money don’t download. ## Most praised reviews (8 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — I am trying to get my account back *2022-12-07, version 1.2.8* I am trying to get my account back from Facebook please restart it ### 5/5 — Can this be fixed?. *2022-06-21, version 1.2.5* Why do i have to pay a subscription to talk to gril on this app, not cool. can this be fixed, its not cool that you start to talk to a pretty woman and with seconds have to pay a subscription, just to talk to woman.
