Force to pay to create event and join activities

Ridiculous, used to be good. Used to use this app for the longest time, but now don’t bothered too much about it, the whole purpose of this app has gone! people try to bring people together by just simply create an event isn’t even possible, the force you to pay something that you don’t even know whether this app is good or not (for first timer, especially…)

Seriously, go back to using Meet-ups! Trust me

Kira’s @howtofit Breaflex club is excellent!

Absolutely love this app. It’s allowed me to connect with likeminded individuals and has introduced me into the world of breath work :) it has helped me tremendously whilst allowing me more time to do things that I really enjoy :)

Amazing customer service

Good app for socialising and meeting new people, but what really stands out is their customer service. I was locked out of my account and they helped me resolve it easily and in short time. They are quick to respond and very helpful. Thank you locals team 🧚‍♀️ 💖
