Hei, don't use badoo, I ve been decent user, single mom and suddenly kicked out and I contacted support but never came any exact answer. I asked for copy of what I ve done wrong, but account deleted. Really bad support, def not suggesting.
Badoo I cool in the fact that it offers live chats. But with all the thirsty lame guys stroke the egos of bored insecure girls that just get on the app for the live chat to get their $#*! kissed i can miss out on it.
Since January, Badoo Europe has become massively infested with AI-generated fakes - there are thousands. There are also active hackers, scammers, thieves, & dangerously illegal aliens - but Badoo has taken no action against most complaints. I have screenshots of literally hundreds of AI fakes, but have to Photoshop out my identity 1st.
Site completely horrible. Is very rare that will be anyone you would even want to talk to anyway. Was very bored around holidays and tried. Half people on there were scammers from Guana or somewhere similar posing as someone cute to try to rob you and other half were definitely not attractive barely even human. Had about 2 mini conversations and was bored. They charged CC every 3-4 days for 2 months no approval. Theives will rob you to death.
Openly married men looking to cheat, flagged 5 profiles with graphic photos and disgusting descriptions of sexual acts men are looking to do. Looking to date within my ethnicity and was flooded with men who were not. Deleted after an hour.

A guy called Danny Dimitrio stole pictures of my FB after being very insulting. He then found information on my FB & threatened to throw acid in my face. Badoo wouldn't do anything about it. So had to call police. Very dangerous site.
Awful is too generous a word. Badoo is just a profiteering site and app for the owners of it. They don't care about the users. As someone else says, it is a greedy pay site, quote "constantly hounding you to use pay services like sending gifts and stickers, get your message read first, get your profile seen more, and it goes on..."
I found it very costly and any extras you pay for are quickly used up and you are motioned to pay again and again. The extras, the add-ons, are expensive too.
Badoo lets you create a profile on its website with just an e-mail address, and you can use it for a while. Then one day you try to log in and it demands you hand over your cell phone number for SMS verification - even though you signed up without it. I don't have a cell phone, and if I did, I would never give my number to Badoo because they would almost certainly sell it to spammers.
The bottom line is that they hold your profile and pics hostage until you give them your cell phone number. No way to remove your pics or close your account. Badoo is the poster child for why the internet needs to be better regulated.
The $#*!ing girl on this dam website told my $#*!ing son she was 18 come to find out she was 14 now her dam parents want to prise charges against my son. Do not use this site unless your looking to go to jail. People on her lie bout everything on here.
I identify as female. My photo's kept being rejected. I emailed support to help change my gender identity on the app. They said it was changed, but my photos kept getting rejected. Then my photos appeared again but my gender was change back to male. And so on and so forth. And the custome support people? RUDE AND SARCASTIC. At least Tinder is inclusive and you don't get rejected and have to fight because of your gender identity. Basically, if you "look like a man" Badoo will reject your photos and not allow you to change your identity to female.
Disgusting!

We would never discriminate against anyone especially our LGBTQIA+ community. We are so proud of our diverse community and have designed the app to be accessible for everybody.
We hope that you will contact us on@BadooHelp with your registration details so we can rectify this issue for you.
Hope to hear from you soon Sameer.

Answer: 99% are fake! When you engage with Badoo you expose yourself to fraud and rip off. Their "job" consists of making up fake profiles with stolen photos and reeling in gullible people. If you want dates and relationship, you may want to try http://J4Love.net This site has helped me and a friend of mine to meet many lovely women. My friend got married to one of them. I'm still undecided, but the site works. Don't waste your money on Badoo. What they do is try to get your money without providing any real service. You pay for talking with bots. You are buried in auto-generated messages and there are no real people willing to meet.
Answer: Hey Jahidul, Sorry to hear about this! If you could please send us a message with your registered email address or phone number, we'll be happy to look into this for you! Badoo Team
Answer: Hi Gunal! We work hard to keep a database of high quality real users, and our moderation team works 24/7 to spot any malicious profiles. Most of our users are really who they say they are! However, if you're still suspicious, we urge you to use the reporting feature to notify our moderators about a potential fake profile. Additionally, Badoo is completely free to use. We do have some additional features to increase your popularity, but they are totally optional. We hope this helps, but please do not hesitate to get in touch if otherwise!
