Bumble

All men beware! I have been bumple for a while and after a lot of swipes this has been my experience. There is rarely a real profile there. Bumble tries to keep you swiping and pay for premium features such as 'compliment', 'super like', etc. Occasionally you will get a match and start texting only to get no response after a text and then eventually be 'unmatched'. Sometimes you send a 'compliment' to someone and get an out of context scripted message and then no response either after!

It ismnot only frustrating but disappointing to know that you are being swindled by an App that calls itself legit. Contacting bumble support for help is impossible. They don't respond to your messages either! Bumble is similar to a scamming 'call center' overseas, but only right here!

I'm sure plenty of legitimate bans are placed each day on creeps and solicitors, but I'm a normal guy who just randomly had his account deleted without warning or reason. Customer support has also ignored me completely.

I should add that occasionally I do get about 1 contact every 2+ months from Bumble. My profile has professionally taken photos from a photographer & looks really good {IMO}.

Women I've talked to get 200+ responses PER DAY from Bumble. My target age range is also higher: I'm looking for educated, in-shape, women in the 53-63 age range. I myself am 60 but am in very good shape. Thus ratios are highly skewed (no women// many men). They will automatically renew you unless you put the renewal date in a calendar & make sure to cancel just before that date.

You can get customer support if you complain enough. I think support is not US-based but not sure.

They just want you to pay for everything, even to send a message or see who likes you for separate, too expensive, technical issues, fake profiles, no customer service, botched features, worst experience ever! I want my money back, but they already stole it. STAY AWAY save a headache!

MY Bumble account was active for a few months. Even had a couple dates. BUT, that was after wasting a ton of time and $ on fake profiles. The way they work is the more attractive the Lady the more likely its a fake account. Then they Blocked my account after I responded to a female who made rude comments to me about my age, race, and hair color lol. Yes, they blocked me for responding in a semi negative way, " no foul language btw" to her insults. She is still on there, of course... Sexist, Racist to support her like that, you tell me?

SOO lame. How many people turn off the notifications on this app because it's constantly sending annoying reminders to use itself, which has the opposite effect of facilitating communication among users and potential lovers? Why is there some god awful time limit on making a first move? Every one knows men are prime movers, I though at first this was some nudge to make women more culturally assertive but you cannot attack some thing which is innate. I've had a 99% match vanish rate with interesting people where a real conversation and connection could have happened because I'm not incessantly addicted to my phone as the company seems to want all their users to be. With no free perks and no incentive for matches to start a dialogue I, as a man, simply am not interested in using their deeply demoralizing platform.

Be wary of this sketchy, scam site.

1. They'll hide the cancellation option and continue to auto bill you each month

2. There's men dressed up as women on the women's side

3. There's prostitutes and prostitution on the app

4. Customer service is impossible to contact or unhelpful for the rare time they do reply

5. Fake profiles of models

I could go on but you get the idea. Use at your own risk!

Some 70% of men I had matched with and initiated a conversation don't ever reply! Or unmatched me soon after I started talking to them. Why are you matching then? What is wrong with you? Playing mind games or something? This app must be an ego booster for men and nothing else. I should add that I am attractive tall woman, and good at holding a decent conversation, so can't understand this.
I have now deleted Bumble and will never use again!

The woke chick who started the app won't even allow users to sort potential matches by race. So you'll be scrolling through countless people you're not interested in. And dont even think about posting a photo of yourself enjoying a sport like skeet, sporting clays or hunting because guns= "evil". Theyll delete the photo Woke garbage app.

I paid for a lifetime membership - BIG mistake!

The entire premise of this website is sexist. The company claims it "empowers women" but it does so at the expense of men. Women get to make the first move, but 99% of the time, the women just let the clock run out and after 24 hours, the match just disappears. Guys, this website is terrible. Women swipe right on men (and my guess is dozens of men at a time) and then they sit back and do nothing. Meanwhile, the guys have to wait until the woman initiates the conversation. This so-called "empowerment" goes against how men and women have been socialized for centuries. Joining this site was a big mistake. Do NOT upgrade to a paid membership, but even better, avoid this site like the plague.
