Worst dating app ever
February 9, 2025

Badoo has the worst customers servive ever. It is also full of people without papers from áfrica who are just on the platform just to look for somebody to marry so that they get papers in Europe.
There are also scammers who pretend to be men working as military or humanitarian missions staff who say that they will come to your country in a couple of weeks ti reunite with their relatives. Normally the ask you for a whatsaap number and then they delete the match. They chay with you for s short period of time and then they say that somethings terrible has happened and that they will have no Internet buy they are so much in live with you that they want to stay in contact with you so they ask you to send them a gift card.
I had horrible experiences on this app. Also a men came to my house though I told him that I wanna meet at a public place but he kept on pushing. When he came he said he wants a relationship and spoke non stop of his libido. Hoe high it was. I said that I don't wanna be with him. Then he said that he wants to have just friends with benefits. When I said NO he said he works fro Badoo to check the people who use the app. In case whe does work for badoo I find it very creepy.
Please save yourself some trouble and never ever install this app.

They are an absolute terrible company to deal with buyer. Beware don't spend your money. I think after my subscription and my credits are out. I'm gonna cancel everything because the company is a total waste of time and money and energy. And I never did a thing wrong either.

Absolutely brutal policies. Total and utter nonsense. To begin with I spent $200 purchasing credits from this company and now they're telling me if they don't use them by a certain timeframe my credit will expire which it doesn't say anywhere when they were purchase credits through Apple. And, now they blocked my account for saying something wrong too. With 2350 credits of mine paid for through Apple

Badoo violates
July 11, 2024

They are essentially stealing information when they don't delete personal data on the account example pictures after an unfair block. People unite who have been wronged by them to make a report to the authorities about Badoo as they violate Privacy laws of your country like in Canada.

Should be illegal
December 1, 2023

Filled with fake accounts that constantly delete themselves. Most profiles that are 'near' you are actually in South America or SE Asia. App charges you for the littlest thing. Such a blatant scam. I can't believe this is allowed

100% Fraud
September 22, 2023

It is Friday, Sept 22,2023.
I signed up on Tuesday of this week, 9/19/23... and immediately got messages from some inappropriately young, incredibly good looking, obvious fake profiles.
So, on to the real activity after deleting all of the immediate crap.
The one huge problem, is there really are very few women on the site.
Most are not in the area their profile states... and are just looking for $$$.

I'm shocked at how bad it is...and have deleted the app entirely.

Good luck...

As a newcomer to the online dating scene, I was initially apprehensive about navigating through various platforms. However, my experience with badoo completely shattered any doubts I had. The user-friendly interface provided me with a seamless journey right from the moment I signed up.

Den
January 1, 2024

I was a paying customer for less than a week before I deleted my profile.
Baddoo is a haven for criminals and scammers. Every single person that contacted me was a scammer and not from my country even though had the filter set to a 50 mile radius. When I viewed the scammer's profile they were years old, which told me Baddoo does not police their site and made a den of thieves.
This site is not safe and should be banned from the United States.

Hmmm
March 9, 2024

It seems all these guys are looking to hook up off this site and getting the run around they're getting scammed, and reporting fake profiles. I learned from industry reports that the males on any date site ratio to females is about 80 to 1 on the straight sites and about 300 to 1 on the purported hookup sites. You have better odds in a crowded bar. If I want a hookup I go to the sites where I can do just that whenever I want to and leave these phoney sites alone. It always seems these users credit cards get overcharged and hit with recurring charges which I don't doubt. I can't for the life of me figure out why people who want a little sugar honey avoid the real deal and sign up on a phoney site.

Badoo is doodoo!
December 4, 2023

First, let's pull the coat on the plethora of scammers and fake profiles on this site. Badoo takes no security measures to prevent these fraudulent profiles. Infact, this has become a breeding site for leeches and parasites alike, and badoo helps to feed them.
Now let's talk about how Badoo steals money from members and legit profilers by mysteriously and surreptitiously losing a member's information and blocking their profiles after Badoo has charged money on a members account. If it smells like crap, it's definitely shit!

Date of experience: December 4, 2023
