Rampant prostitution
March 17, 2019

Tinder is over. Now they protect the illegal prostitution flooding so many of their profiles. I complained about it and they cancelled my premium subscription.

Tried it out
August 3, 2015

I don't have much negative to say about Tinder only I'm more oriented towards dating Asian women so I just didn't find enough of my taste on there. Otherwise it is a good page.

Banned
September 26, 2020

I've had tinder off and on 3 years because I'll forget about it, suddenly out of nowhere... blocked. Then they don't say why or allow appeals. How ridiculous. For no reason blocked.

Terrible site!
July 2, 2023

Terrible site! Not user friendly whatsoever! I found it challenging to figure out and it was expensive with no refunds available. Don't waste your time or money!

It is full of fake profiles. Waste of time and money. I have another dating app that I get dates on regularly. Tinder hasn't had one real person in 3 months.

Ladies beware
January 2, 2017

After being asked to talk via email with a supposed 'roger huff' on Tinder I discovered he's not a Swedish widower from Brisbane at all, but an Indian guy from Sth Carolina! He wrote a litany of lies claiming a truckload of BS. Identity theft is huge on Tinder so if going on email ladies - check the URL address. Identity checks are not done and a Facebook profile is all that's needed to start a Tinder account and these, as you know, can be faked as well.

Tinder Sucks
October 20, 2021

I paid for Tinder Gold, but never got access. There is no customer service or help at all. I would never use again. Dating apps need you to stay single.

Not For Everyone
March 22, 2022

Tender does not cater to conservatives like they do the woke crowd, why can't there be options for All Lives Matter, or proudly unvaccinated, back the blue, Gun Rights or Free Speech, or I believe in Voter ID like there is BLM, Vaccinated, Climate change that they push off on us.

I have nothing but good to say about this dating website - 5 Stars
Easy to use, easy to upload photos - and when I used it briefly for a month -
I got 2 dates with ease - one of which I am living with to the present time.
Reason - I only used it for a month - was that by then I was happily dating my new girlfriend.
( I would say I also used PoF and got a couple of dates there as well)
I also used the free version - and I am a genuine guy ( that's me next to the Ki. 100 at Hendon)
And I would say Tinder is worth the effort - just be picky and I should add, both women messaged me
After we matched!
Overall - for best results pick your very best photo - add a few extra doing something you love
And above all, a decent write-up about yourself ( less is more)
Good Luck!

Rude customer service!
December 5, 2021

So, this was our chat log:

[Me]: I don't use a cellphone!

[Tinder]: Hello,

Thanks for reaching out. Unfortunately, your message to us didn't contain enough information for us to be able to assist you.

Please feel free to respond to this email with more information about the trouble you are experiencing so we can help to resolve the issue.

Best,

Brittany

[Me]: I can't create an account! It's asking for my cellphone number! Help!: o

[Tinder]: Hello,

Thanks for writing in. For security reasons, SMS verification is required upon signup, whether you're signing up for Tinder using your Facebook profile or your phone number. To that end, access to a working phone number is required upon signup.

We appreciate your understanding. Please let me know if I can answer any other questions.

Best,

Brenda

[Me]: So, you're discriminating against me because I prefer to use my box computer? Super lame. I'll leave a scathing review on sitejabber. Don't thank me for understanding, because I don't understand. Go [bleep] yourself.

**************
That was some bad customer service. It implies that I don't want to use a cellphone number for duplicitous reasons. In reality, I don't own a cellphone. And they're clearly not willing to work with me to verify my identity. Scumbags.

Worst dating site
October 3, 2023

I had just signed back up after years of break and they banned me for no reason at all. I absolutely didn`t even message anyone on there. When inquired, they kept sending me automated messages.

Loooong wait times. (Several weeks.) And they dont read your messages clearly as the replies you get are clearly not related to the question.
Waited 1 month now to get my problem solved and spoken with 4 different custommer service agents and they reply me once and then not again for another 2 weeks or so.

I will never spend money on this app again untill they fix their custommer service. Seriously arrogant of themto have such a bad and slow cuatommer service for such a big company..

After 3 years of having a Gold Tinder account I was unexplicably banned. I have asked for an explanantion and a review of the decision but all I have received is a generic reply that I have violated the terms and conditions, no information on what I apparently did! I have always acted in an ethical way on the site, so I know I haven't done anything to violate the terms and conditions. The problem started when their system crashed and I couldn't log in, I kept having to verify I was human by choosing the correct box with the Bat. Very soon after I received a message I had been banned! The Support team 'ghost' my inquiries and offer no support at all actually. I had 6 months remaining on my Gold membership so it's not only unfair it's also cheated me of the money I have paid. I'm extremely unsatisifed with the service, which can not be described as professional or ethical. My recomendatión is that you find another dating site because this one is a disaster!

Even though I personally prefer traditional dating sites like Mingle2day I have to admit that Tinder is a FUN APP to use. I have been using it for like 3 weeks and as mentioned: Yes, traditional dating site is what you need to go for if you are serious about dating. But again: It is a fun place to use once in a while.
