So Ive been on this site maybe three weeks and out of the three I've tried so far this one has the best looking guys and the ones most capable of stringing a sentence together. It really is for casual dates no matter how many men say they're looking for a relationship lol it doesn't seem to be that kind of site. At least the majority of photos are clear and pretty good quality and so far all but one of the twenty or so Ive met have looked exactly like their photos. The men have all been friendly and lots of fun. Naturally there are some idiots but you have to make it clear what you will and wont do and where you will and won't go. You also get a couple of abusive newbies where it's obvious this is the first time mum has gone out and left them home alone lol. But the site is really easy to navigate and the block/report button is extremely effective so they're not a continuous problem. So. If you're looking for casual good times with fun guys give this site a try. Even free it's been great.
The charged my Paypal NOK 999.99 without reason. Customers service is a joke. They have excuses that are bull$#*! and prewritten, I subscribed to Badoo a short period in 2015, and 5 years later they suddenly charged me NOK 999.99 (USD 108,-). They will not refund me and Paypal is no good either. And they have not given me the service in Badoo they STOLE my money for either.
I've found lots of reviews in Thrustpilot and Google Play where users tells about similar instances. Badoo is ripping people off!
I've created 'FB/Dissapointed Badoo Users' for users to unite. The goal is to work upon Paypal and other transaction providers to boycott Badoo. Please unite!
After creating a profile, I was unable to re-connect to the site because I was blocked! After several days seeking a response I received their standard email, that my profile was in violation of their terms. I'm just a regular guy, nothing I posted was inaccurate, misleading, offensive, racist, nothing I can think of that was remotely cause for concern.

Such a joke... can't imagine ANYONE paying for whatever service they claim to provide, they must only want the most eligible young people who are gullible enough to splash their cash!
I matched with somebody and then they went silent for days after we talked for about 2 days. I sent them a message saying that I felt they had wasted my time and that I was no longer interested. They then reported me and I was banned within 5 minutes. That and the fact that I had REFUSED to continue using PREMIUM seems to be enough for them to ban me.
The people who run this are SCUM!

Worst dating website ever. The only good thing is (at least for switzerland), that there are quite a lot of people on it. But it is a huge rip-off anyway. First of all they send out emails to the people in your address book without your consent. Second, as a male person, you can only write to 10 new girls per day, and also only 2 messages per person unless they reply. If you want more, you have to pay. Also, you can't send messages to someone who is above or below your age group. Third, Badoo deleted almost all photos where I was not with a picture on it. Like holiday pictures etc. or pictures where I'm with my gf. You need to have 3 pictures with your face, otherwise you cant see anyone else's pictures. If you have no picture at all, you can't even send any messages. There are lots of pervert guys on the site, spamming all the women all day and trying to get sex. Most women are pissed of by that, and so they usually don't answer any hello. You need to be quite creative in your messages. And even then, mostly they will not even read your message because they are already flooded with other messages. Oh, and also, some girls that get many profile views and messages, have some kind of hot-flag on their profile, and you can not send them any message until you pay for the premium service.
Badoo was great few years ago. Now its just a scam site. You have to pay 99% of the time if you want to chat to someone. Doesnt make much sense. Dont waste your time and money.
Charged $60 for unknown reason over the subscription price. Hidden costs. App quite hard to use. Once paid up you are supposed to buy credits if you want to message. Complete ripoff.

I experienced vulgarity personified and abstracted! Dirt bags by the 100's! Why don't these sodomites go to the local watering hole and get laid. Ignorant and many are unappealing! What a joke!
Badoo is a nice application but it has problems like all the others, i. E. fake accounts and fees, but generally it's ok. From myself I recommend similar to Badoo - Kupido24 website
This site is horrible. I used to take this site very seriously in the beginning but no more. A bunch of sex-crazed, disease infested, and money hungry men, looking for a female to use. Some of these men look for hard-working stable women to use. Most of them still live at home with their Mama, already have children, "small children at that," and sometimes babies, looking for a woman to take care of them. Really?
Others are married with kids, yet they say that they are separated, but that is all a lie. They are looking for a one-night stand. They start by being kind to you online and talkin sweet online. Once they meet with you they just want to have sex right there on the spot and most of them "DO NOT"... want to even use a Condom, "YES" you heard it right!
Their presentation is horrible and very unprofessional. I have had guys meet me 1) With alcohol on the breath, 2)Drunk, 3)Horny, 4)Sweaty, and just plain disrespectful, "Seriously," Not A Joke!
They will try and take you to a near by bar and pressure you just enough to get you tipsy or drunk even so they can have their way with you. They will try to force alcohol on you whether you drink or not. This site is so trashy and corrupt, and very dangerous I do not consider this site appropriate and no longer do I consider this site safe it's plain "DISGUSTING!
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.
