The Pitfalls of Using Tinder

Tinder is not chill

I have never even used the app before. I simply just created an account, put my phone number and email in and then it says I was completely banned. Again, I have never used the app before this so I have no idea why I was so quickly banned. I cannot create a new account or anything.

I’ve had my luck in tinder but DO NOT SPEND YO MONEY, after that purchase dry for days

So obviously the app itself is fine. Easy to use. The one thing that bothers me is the “interests or passions”. They are all these left wing liberal passions but none for anyone else. For example: pro-choice, LGBTQ rights, feminism, vaccination stickers on profiles etc… so my question is where is the passion for pro-life? Or religion/God? The Bible? There are plenty of passions on the right that are just completely ignored. The more time I spend on this app the more I realize how it’s just another app from liberal California that’s “woke” I put that I am unvaccinated, pro-life, love Jesus and looking for that in a partner on my profile on day 1 and I got an email from Tinder saying “they don’t approve of hateful messages to other users and if I do it again I will be banned” but I hadn’t even sent a message yet?? I’ve seen profiles say hail Satan, F trump, F republicans, let’s riot and burn buildings down on first date, looking for 3 ways, if you’re not vaccinated go kill yourself etc… but none of these profiles get taken down. My message to other Jesus loving single people - either don’t download Tinder or just be straight up with your beliefs in your bio. Because 95 percent of tinder users have 0 values whatsoever and it’s a good way to weed them all out. Don’t change who you are or your beliefs for anyone. Don’t let pressure from media, social media, dating apps, friends make you give in to the evil.

I got banned for no reason, I got mass reported.

I don’t know what was wrong, but they just banned me for no reason I was using it perfectly. Then I was banned. I wrote a complaint they said it was going to go through but no. I couldn’t do nothing about it.

Nothing seems to be working. I get unlimited swipes but I’m not gold or paying anything. Buggy

Very good

Very good

90% of the people in the app are fake accounts or catfish, it’s becoming a huge waste of time. Tinder needs to do a better job of deleting fake accounts and catfish.

This may have been the best app at one point in time ! It’s not anymore. And the verified user badge is as useless as a silent alarm clock. The scammers create an account take a picture of them self get verified then change all the pictures to some stolen pictures from instagram. So the verified badge means nothing. The the Tinder team or parent company does nothing to deal with scammer and fake accounts! Almost all the matches I had were with people pretending to be pretty girls that wanted to get me in to an investment scam of sort. Moral of the story to all you guys out there I think it’s time for all of us to start boycotting Match Group because it does nothing protect us or keep scammers off the platforms.

When I first got the app I would get a pretty good amount of likes/matches, but in order to see who it is you HAVE to upgrade to gold or platinum. As soon as you pay to upgrade your profile it gets shadow banned and you stop getting matches, but AS SOON as your gold/platinum upgrade expires you begin to receive matches again. Don’t give these people your money.

On top of charging an arm and a leg, this app is laced with bugs i.e. matches/convos disappearing then coming back

The title of this review encapsulates this app perfectly. It’s a joke & not even a good one. AKA lol. There’s heavy prejudice on this app’s settings. Get real Tinder, this app could be WAAAAAY better. If you give both sexes exclusively different ways of presenting their profile, how are they gonna feel equal to their potential matches or prioritized as a customer? How are they gonna be expected to want to message their matches or create a worthwhile profile or really use the app that much at all? AKA; creating activity on your app, driving up more potential customers…? It’s bigoted & just a blatant abuse of power; displaying clear favorability towards how either sex is displayed to the other. It will only get you so far as a company. Do better.

I ask for only people within a certain range and it still shows me women from thousands of miles away. Every profile it seems just has an Instagram or Snapchat link in it and little else (in other words, all “business women” if you catch my drift) or are just fake profiles. Tinder could do something about this but they won’t; they don’t care. They just want you to continue clinging to false hope so you’ll give them more and more money (and they keep raising the prices.) There are no benefits to improving Tinder for the user because if you actually meet the right person, you leave Tinder. Meanwhile they buy up more and more dating apps to keep the monopoly going and continue making dating miserable for all of humanity (besides the 10’s looking for hookups, of course.) The world is a meat market and if you’re anywhere below the upper echelon, you are worthless… but keep giving Tinder your money even though they think nothing of you.

Decided to try out the tinder platinum service and was disappointed terribly. They don’t deliver you any results even after you paid them. You might be thinking it’s my profile?? wrong. Why is it after using hinges service I can rack up 400+ matches in a month and a half on hinge but on tinder I can't even get 20 within a week and if i do it's only bots? Am I only attractive on hinge but not on tinder? I have the same profile pics on both however tinder seems to not really be on your side. Money hungry app DO NOT buy their services hinge is a better app i promise you. I paid hinge and get 70+ matches a week when i paid them which shows who the clear winner is.. I'm not paid by any of these companies and if you don't believe me just try it (assuming your profile is decent). wouldn't be wasting my time to write this review but people deserve the truth. Tinder is a garbage app that wants to keep you on a hamster wheel in hopes that you pay them more and more. Hinge is actually serious about helping you find a partner. The end.

The app doesn’t work unless you enable your location. Not only can you NOT swipe, but you CAN’T even view messages unless you share your location. I have had several stalkers and cannot afford to pay $40 a month just to hide my location and continue using the app. I’m an attractive guy too, yet not going to use Tinder. I recommend using Hinge. It’s way better and includes tons of free filters compared to Tinder.

Haven’t used the app in several weeks come back and go through and chat for an hour and get banned with no reason. So confused and no answers.

Not sure why Tinder is doing this but every time I have tried to make an account I get zero matches. & I know what you’re thinking, “you just get no matches”, well this is wrong. I’ve had tinder in the past and I would get many matches and I would delete the app because I didn’t want to have it or I got into a relationship but now that I’m single, it just doesn’t work anymore. I even tried swiping on everyone even the random accounts and still no matches. I tried on bumble and I got many matches, so in conclusion I think I got blocked by tinder but I’m not sure why.

This app has gotten more restrictive over the years and there are better alternatives out there.

still not option for non-binary as a different “gender” category. i don’t want to be shown to men looking for straight girls !

So I got banned and tried to find out why / appeal it. And I got no answer besides our server banned you and that’s it. So thanks for banning me for not doing anything? Great app. 😀👍🏼 ((P.O.S))

The number of people that I know who have been banned for no reason is actually hilarious. I thought people must’ve done something that was bad but apparently just existing is bad enough for tinder. Save yourself some time and just don’t download this god forsaken app

Do not pay for a subscription!! They ban you over the littlest things (for life) with no rhyme or reason. Not worth it!!!

First off don’t bother with this app unless you’re attractive. Second this company is run by thieves. Got a renewed subscription that I know I cancelled only to find it had renewed it self then I got promptly denied a refund . Keep in mind I deleted my account a month ago. Don’t bother with these criminals.
