I was banned for no reason AFTER paying for a year in advance Great money making scheme eh?
Do not waste your money
How they get away with treating their customers the way they do just boggles my mind. I've had so many friends tell me how they've been treated by Grindr support staff in the past. Being banned without any explanation at all. They didn't ban me in all the 10 years I've been using it on and off. However that all changed. I was banned a while back and couldn't figure out why. I have a new email address these days and registered again a few days ago. I was banned again tonight so I emailed them and all I got in return was my profile was reported for "Spammy activity." You couldn't make it up!
I messaged back saying how on Earth could I be responsible for "Spammy activity? It's clearly someone local harassing me by falsely reporting me and you can't even be bothered checking!" I didn't even get a reply. These cowboys are part of the reason the the whole gay world is falling apart. Absolutely no morals or interest in customers. Just take take take! I'm sure if they had an ounce of decency they'd be embarrassed by their bullying way of making money. I've read some of the reviews and more interestingly the responses. One generic response in particular stating they can ban anyone at anytime for any reason.
How that gets around the legal systems beats me. How I read that is... If they don't like your face, colour, profile, orientation etc they feel they can just ban you. ABSOLUTELY DISGUSTING! You should be ashamed of yourselves and your false ethics. Oh and don't bother to blather back with your generic fake responses. I will be complaining to Google, I don't know in depth how app regulations work but surely this can't be right to treat people like scum?! You are a DISGRACE!
Not as people claim and not worth the $11 price for full features. The app is as worse as adam4adam considering that it leans to be more date/meet-up and hang out oriented, but the first thing you'll notice are torso pics galore. It's like their habitat is growing! The other is the downright aggressiveness and rudeness of the members when they message you as they demand face pics and private pics to the point that its frighteningly harassing, and are just too horny or holier than thou to have any civility. If you're not their type, they'll let you know bluntly themselves or in their profiles with passive aggressiveness of threats, even if you just want friendship or just to hang out. When you initiate a conversation, it aren't anything to write to your mother about as the people want to know where you are, demand photos, or talk about how horny they are almost 30 seconds in. That or they don't respond at all and not even provide a courtesy message and don't like ice-breaking "small-talk" (they pretty much Inceptioned the ice with the way they behave, though)
There are diamonds in the rough, but it's just not worth the wait. Other than the community the app itself is bad with their sketchy rules on pictures as if you show "a little" too much skin, any piece of underwear, it results in banishment without much of a warning and it happens to only a handful of members when there's an abundance of them. There's also the spam "too-good-to-be-true" messages where an attractive guy messages you in a frisky mood and tries to get you to pay more for a webcam chat feature. Honestly, what has the gay community come to? If you like a community like this, then good luck.
WTF. I have had the grindr app for a few months, I have tried and tried to cancel. The app does not allow me to cancel. They keep charging me and have NO WAY TO CONTACT THEM. This is app is a SCAM.
Grinder app is Not safe and illegal things don't do it
Admin is so rude they are never answering your questions so I don't request
Answer: 19.99. But chances are high that they will ban your profile after you've paid for subscription. Grindr has taken to stealing money from consumers by banning accounts without giving any reason. My patience ran out and I switched to http :// GCamsYou.com I like it much better! Boys provide great entertainment and solid support. No tricks with bogus charges and sudden ban. The best thing was actually having two dates offline! It's early days and I'm going with the flow and see where it goes, but so far it's the best platform I have dealt with. Don't waste your time on Grindr! They have lost touch with reality and turned into a total fraud. Catastrophic quality of people - scammers, bots, fakes, drug-dealers, etc and sneaky "support"! They don't police their own platform and don't value their customers anymore.
Answer: Grindr will only help you if you're straight or bi. They encourage homophobia and homophobic remarks and I have reported someone in the past, but because he was straight, he didn't get banned.
Answer: Yes. Please contact me at petermanwally@gmail.com. I'd like to know more about pursuing legal recourse.
Answer: Because Grindr is inconsistent. What do you expect from a less than mediocre website and obtuse management
