Tinder

You would think paying an extra $39.99/week would make some difference on a Dating site but boy, was i mistaken!!!... These Match Group sites, of which Tinder is 1, don't!! Absolutely freaking useless. No benefits whatsoever and it is harder to cancel your subscription than it is to rob a bank!!! Show details

Utterly useless. Save your time and money! Paid for gold membership thinking this might help I've liked many women, with an open mind and not matched or received anything in return lol Literally not one lol This is even after I paid a significant amount thinking it 'may' help with better matching etc. Nope. I added photos. Did that help? No. … Read more

I liked 'active' women in different categories and settings. Did that help? No. I verified and completed a full profile. No. No. No. Nothing made any difference.

Highway robbery with zero attempt on their part to actually me with anyone!

Waste of time and money for men in Australia and other developed countries. Same feedback from other men in AUS, USA, and Northern Europe. I’ve used the free version for years. I paid AUD $29.99 with PayPal for 1 week subscription the very first time years ago, and again recently to see if anything changed. That’s why I’m finally writing this… Read more

review. It’s setup for auto renewal fee so you have to cancel it early. At least I got an email warning of this and I cancelled the auto renewal straight away. Then got a confirmation email. You should not have to worry about such things. It’s like a scam.

The app system works by you making a profile and sending likes to others. On the free version you get to view 100 profiles a day whether you Like or Dislike them. Members must have a profile picture and account name. Eg: can put a picture of a potato and put “Secret Agent James Bond”. Report these fake profiles with no real pic of a person, they’re just wasting everyone’s time. You can like a members profile and if they like you back that’s a Match. Then you can both message each other. You get notified if another member likes or messages your profile. It's a simple system and works on occasion. Conversion rate is 10% for men, meaning even if I sent 100 likes only 10 reply. Of those 10 replies 9 are usually scammer or fake accounts. Women use it to promote their social media and business accounts, like Instagram (IG). This is against the rules and report them. It’s sad they’re so desperate for followers and attention. If you see their IG handle or tag on their profile report them as fake. They’ll never reply you or meet up. Often they’re not even in your area or country it’s a fake account. Whether a bar, restaurant, online store, or porn site. Most are fake promoting something like this. There are also both g#y and straight men with fake accounts pretending to be women, doing all the above and worse. No actual meet ups or dates. Get use to many fake profiles. I regularly report them. I think these online platforms actually makes fake profiles to keep you interested and paying subscription fees. Other young male friends have the same experience and feedback. The paid version is unlimited likes but there may not be many people in your area. IE: if there’s only 30 people in your area then no point in the paid version. If conversion rate is 10% then 30 likes may result in 3 replies. Of those 3 replies they’re all fake accounts and scammers. I feel the paid version does get likes and replies quicker, but don’t get too excited. You’re getting higher priority for all the same problems above. There’s some other minor benefits and perks you can look up on the different paid versions. The paid version can be used overseas for travel. But you could also setup a local phone and new account for that country.

Over the years the app has become less and less useful. I used to get 1-2 real profiles chatting and dates a year. I even got into a long-term relationship with one a long time ago. Now it’s none at all. I think its Tinder trying to push users onto the paid version and purposely removing any benefit of the free version. It s#cks but makes sense as they’re trying to make money from paying customers as a business. Women on the app are just using it to promote their social media and businesses. It’s ridiculous. Other men in Australia, USA, and European confirm similar feedback. Depends on your country and region. Eg: Guys who traveled Columbia and SE Asia got some dates but all the same problems apply and plenty of scams.

Female users have also confirmed all the above and on their side they get likes and message straight away. An average young woman boasted to me she was dating 15 guys from the app at one time. She was doing it for validation. Showed me screenshots of the messages as proof. It’s a really bad system and false reality. A fat ugly Karen will get likes and messages from desperate low quality men. Low quality women get a false confidence on the app and try to take advantage of everything. The high quality men think modern dating is hopeless and stay single. This is a heavily manipulated virtual reality on the internet. It’s not real. Just an internet app with bad demographics and bad management.

Approximately 9% or less of the population is online dating. This is a very small amount of people online dating and a majority are men. Ratio of 10 men to 1 woman. With that massive difference it's very hard for men online dating. The women on these apps are very picky and look down on men with so many guys messaging and lining up. They waste your time desperate for more followers on social media like IG. Or trying to get material things like free drinks, meals and gifts. You are the man qualifying the women, not the other way around. Don’t let the scammers take advantage. Save your time, energy, and money.

You would be better off spending your hard earned money on actual relationship training or personal development. Books, courses, etc. Seriously you'll get more out of it and have better relationship and interpersonal skills. And of course going out and actually meeting people in your area. I made the effort to try meet people both day and night. Paid for a coffee, soda, or venue entry fee. Often not fancy and daily life stuff. I met more people in 1 month than 1 year on Tinder! I quit drinking alcohol but went out to a club. I ordered a soda and met a gorgeous women at the bar. She was also sober and noticed me “Hey you’re not drinking? Neither am I”. We hit it off. Great conversation, smiling laughing and flirting all night. She just broke up with her ex-boyfriend because he was heavy into drugs and wasn’t ready for another boyfriend yet. Still a great first date. It cost me the club entry fee and a soda. I never would have met her on Tinder or any other dating app. A good attractive woman is not using these dating apps. You must get out and meet them in real life.

Plenty of likes from peeps living on the other side of the planet - seems irrelevant if you put in a distance preference. Shame on these companies for making it just so difficult to cancel, they do it on purpose.

I attempted to extend my Tinder Gold subscription through a third-party provider using Codashop. The voucher was not honoured by Tinder. I agree that the site has too many romance scammers. Staff do not seem to care about customer concerns. Better quality elsewhere. Show details

Having tried the majority of the dating sites in the last 18 months. I have found Tinder to offer me the most catch-ups of any of the other dating apps. Being a male I've naturally had to pay to get the premium version to like and message ladies, but I have found some great people close by. As per many of the apps, sure you've got your time… Read more

wasters on there that just want to chat, and then they will ghost you. The verified photo is something to look out for when checking out profiles. I was under the impression Tinder was just for hookups, but most of the people are genuinely seeking something more long-term.

The worst dating app i have ever been on, paid the $30 extra 4 times in a row. And it said i have 7 likes but i must pay $30 And guess what, every single girl that i matched with was over 1000kms away, and 2 were asians which im not into, and a transgender asian women like What the crap. Im going to fair trade this is ridiculous!!

Very few women in my capital city.Admin is extremely difficult to contact and when I was able they agrreed easier to delete account than try to rectify the numerous issues dogging my account Will never go back Show details

I had a tinder gold subscription. I have paid for it, tinder have sent me emails acknowledging it. Then suddenly they cancelled it and they refuse to do anything about it. They have taken my money amd not delivered the product. In my book that is theft. Show details

I was banned after deleting and starting a new account for a fresh start, even though I did nothing to violate their terms of service. The ban was permanent, no possibility of appealing (as you need to login to appeal, then are rejected from login because of the ban). I have been banned for several years now and can only conclude that Tinder… Read more

does not want genuine users but is happy to have lots of fake profiles to boost their probability of you finding a fake scammer partner. Sites such as this thrive on boosting the number of profiles with fake profiles to make it seem more probably you can match with someone. HOWEVER, they will ban genuine users on the flimsiest guidelines, saying you violated their (what? fake?) terms of service.

Just got charged $22.99 AUD for nothing was browsing on another platform and had a pop up say $22.99 has been charged to your account. Investigated it and yeah tinder charged me for nothing never using that platform again. Show details

I had an extremely poor experience with this app, and I strongly advise against using it. There are far better alternatives available. Despite adjusting my search settings to under 5 miles, I was continually shown profiles of individuals who live far away. This is unacceptable. Additionally, I've encountered a shocking number of scammers and… Read more

fake profiles—far more than I could have imagined. It's blatant and frustrating to see so many profiles soliciting money.

Furthermore, the real profiles I came across often featured women with heavily filtered photos, showcasing unrealistic appearances with silly features. This kind of misrepresentation is not just misleading; it's unacceptable.

I demand a refund of the hundreds of pounds I have spent on this app. It is the app's responsibility to monitor and remove scammers. I should not have to deal with this, especially when I'm paying for a service.

Additionally, the app should implement measures to encourage women to respond to messages—even if it’s just to say they’re not interested. There needs to be a push for users to upload honest, unfiltered pictures of themselves. It's ridiculous to see mature women with absurd filters and altered images.

Horrible unsafe place! The account can be easily hacked knowing your phone number. My ex-friend hacked it, he is not even an IT specialist! My account was hacked and it did not work for two months and it was also impossible to delete it, so I could not even create a new account. At the same time, the account looked like usual, and asked for money… Read more

as usual but no one saw me and no one answered me. I did not even immediately guess that it does not work. I was able to delete the hacked account and create a new one only when I agreed with my ex-"friend". All this time, tech support ignored my letters. With such "security" they recently offer to send them an ID! Just imagine how much information about you can be found out on any dating site if you send them your ID! When I finally created a new account, a week later some abuser and racist wrote a complaint about me that I was a scammer and was in another country, although I was 1 km away from him, and he could easily check it, it is visible on the account. My photos were verified! He decided I was a scammer based on the fact that one of my photos taken while traveling abroad had foreign letters I didn't say a single bad word to him, and I didn't ask for anything, he's just a real psychopath. Guess what? My account was immediately banned! If the account is paid, all this time when it doesn't work, you are charged a fee.

I have met some amount of women on tinder but all were overweight. Never actually got an attractive girl agree to meet most don't match if they do they don't respond more then once I'd describe it as possibly the worse app ever used Show details

When are people gonna learn that all dating sites/hookup sites are a scam,if your dumb enough to join and pay for a subscription then you deserve to be ripped off.Wake up and smell the bagel baking in the oven for crying out loud these sites are stealing your money and you get nothing.

Sent numerous emails,regarding restrictions on my account,when I didn't even do anything wrong. Yet,there are photos of men that don't leave much to the imagination.

Banned my account after I have spent thousands of dollars saying I've violated t&cs, I had contacted support and they will not tell me what was violated TINDER ARE SCAMMERS, I PAID FOR A SWRVICE AND BEEN BANNED FOR NO REASON

I wish l could give Tinder 0...I'm in Sydney and so many profiles say they are in another state...but are never more than 30kms. So their Geo targeting is b*******. Plus even though I said a radius of 50 kilometres it sends me leads that are hundreds and thousands of kilometers away. totally rip off site. Avoid it. Show details

This is an unequivocal scam and a blatant act of fraud. I paid a substantial sum of $98 with the expectation of seeing a consistent woman, but unfortunately, I was repeatedly met with the same individual. Furthermore, I did not receive any responses from the service provider. It is evident that they are indifferent to your needs and the quality of… Read more

their services. Their primary objective appears to be profit-making, disregarding customer trust and well-being. Trust me, they will take your money and abandon you without hesitation.

Fake profiles everywhere. All this app does is make men depressed because they don't get responses. The women on there are jumping from man to man looking for the next best thing. You won't meet anyone decent on there.

Tinder is overrun with fake profiles, bots, and time-wasters, making it a poor choice for actual hookups. The swipe system feels superficial, and matches often lead nowhere. Compared❤️ to Datemio, where profiles are verified and intentions are clear, Tinder feels like a guessing game with low success rates. The paid features are overpriced for… Read more

what little they improve. If you want real, no-nonsense connections, skip Tinder and use competitors instead—it’s faster, easier, and way less annoying.

My account was hacked from a public computer and yet despite weeks of telling Tinder this, they ignore me, won't respond, won't fix it. I can't say strongly enough, your data is not secure with Tinder and their customer service seems non-existent. It's like a machine is running it on automatic and there are no checks, balances, no quality controls. Avoid them at all costs! They are a total fraud. Show details

Subscribe at your peril – Beware this scam app. After paying for Gold access for 6 months, the app reverted to basic access after just 3 days of use for no apparent reason, and neither the Tinder help line nor Google play were prepared to do anything about restoring the contracted and paid for 6 month gold access nor a refund. The app is all about ripping off users at… Read more

every opportunity, not about matching daters. There are other more genuine apps like Hinge if you are serious about dating.

BECAREFUL WHAT DATING SITE YOU CHOOSE – DON'T SPEND YOUR MONEY ON THIS DATING SITE. BEWARE SCAMMERS ARE EVERY WHERE ON THERE. A guy contacted me and said he had a great job "Engineer" of some sort WARNING BELLS ALERT ALERT! Short story is we chatted and I was very sus of him, in the end yes he was a scammer, no he didnt get money from me. I told him he was a scammer and that I was… Read more

going to report him. Well he reported me to Tinder and I am banned for life PMSL. That I do not care about being banned, they still got a scammer on their site though lol. I have no idea what story he said about me, but I basically told him to Pee off as any woman would who is an Aussie! That happened in December 2024, now it is February 2025 and I got an email saying they were about to take money out of my bank account, so I tried to log in but I cant because I am banned, next thing straight after I tried to log in to Tinder I got another email saying you will be refunded the money, I mean they are not suppose to take it out of my account until the 15th Feb and today is the 13th Feb. If I see a transaction in my account from them, all hell is going to break loose. How dare they take peoples money after banning them. No give them a miss, be very careful of dating sites that want your account numbers and automatically renew. Try and find ones to pay through Paypal. Easy, you just log into your Paypal account and can stop automatic payments anytime, they wont receive a cent, but you will get an email saying we can not renew your subscription lol. Give yourself the choice if you want to still subscribe don't give them auto renewal choice, becareful.
