Badoo is especially based on matching people using photos and it seems many people don't read the profile texts at all. That causes problems with matching, it seems many people (in my case women) lo... See more

These people will defame you without…

These people will defame you without reason, in a short time they have sent warnings finding they are wrong, they invent problems, the company should be investigated. Staff have answered me with somet5hing that has nothing to do with what i sent. I have not been on the site much today, l had one message from a girl wanting a threesome, i answered 'how much'' to get her to write the money but as i was going to sleep l left it, when i woke up they had blocked me, this is normal, it is what people post here so its true, they invent. They accused me of posting ''commercial things' no idea what i posted for sale but obviously are dyslexic and read that i was selling bearskin rugs from China. If they read all complaints here why is it they have not learnt something and changed their IT system of got educated staff, this has gone on years, what about those reviews where they sole members money, was it repaid. See here message that they sent me which they admit they are wrong and then change their mind, in 2 hours one morning they sent 4 warnings and retracted them, thereby defaming me 4 times with no explanation or apology, never sign their name because they are afraid of being caught wrongly.

''The warning has been reviewed by multiple team members here at Bumble and has been deemed to have been issued fairly.''
''Thank you so much for reporting this member and sharing your experience with us. I'm so sorry to hear about this experience.

If you feel comfortable, can you please share more information as it appears on the profile in question? Additional information will allow us to swiftly locate this account and take appropriate action.''
REMEMBER once you report you can no longer see the person...........they replied wanting the name/age/address/work/education of the person

''We have a team of moderators working around the clock to investigate potential violations to our Community Guidelines and take action on accounts that engage in inappropriate behavior, including permanently blocking profiles.''

So if i have not been online and had no contact with anyone all day except for one girl asking a threesome where are all these working 24/7 moderating.
This is not about a dating site with many scammers/sex workers/online ebeggers, this is about a group of people that are paid to defame others and get away with it. This and all messages from them is being sent to IC3 to get them looked into because of their behavior towards innocent members falsely accused where they will not divulge their reason maybe because it is false as l have written here. Defamation is a crime in law.

Very Poor Experience - No Matches & No Likes

I've been on Badoo for a few weeks. Bad experience yet again. My profile clearly states "looking for casual meets". Badoo is no better than Match Groups Tinder & POF. I've received regular pop-ups to prompt me to pay for Badoo premium. I've had zero likes and no matches on the free version. Why would someone be stupid enough to pay for a premium subscription when I've had no likes or matches on the free version, as there is no incentive in the first place to a pay for a premium subscription. You entice people in by boosting their profiles upon joining, get a few chats & meets going, then we part with our money for premium. It's common sense business. No way am I going to pay for premium if I'm swiping endlessly on the free version and getting no matches or likes. This is totally unrealistic as again I'm not the worst looking guy. I can't help but think that these apps and developers & moderators discriminately pick certain males and place them to the front of the card stacks and make their profiles more visible on characteristics such as height and perhaps certain races as it's completely unrealistic that I'm not getting any likes or matches. Therefore, I wouldn't advise anyone to download this app and certainly not pay for a premium subscription.

Bad to the doo review

Finally an app where you can message freely seems to be a lot of people from kenya and they say they are here (in the USA) but they are not. Anyways it's a good app even with that as there are real people on the site and I actually feel like I might get a date instead of talking to bots on all these other sites and apps. So I say download it now you won't be sorry!

So far not happy

So far not happy. After a pause because of negative experience I registered today again just to find out nothing has changed. After 10 min browsing I started to receive a message "Get Badoo premium". However I have premium in the first 3 days of the registration. If I press buy button i receive message "your premium status is valid". The message blocks the screen so you can not browse profiles. The other problem is that they have annoying automatically generated messages so men do not bother to write. If they do they only say "hello how are you" So annoying. I do not answer them, because I respect myself so why bother to be on the site. I came to have some positive experience - instead I am now irritated. I remember why I unsubscribed on the first place. Dating apps are useless. This one is too.

I had some meetings. But the hidden likes are from 80% SCAM

I had some meetings.
But
If You dont buy Premium, You get many, many hidden "likes" waiting for You :-)
If You buy Premium, You go through the likes.
And You dont get any new likes.
Then Premium expires, and suddenly next day, You get many many new likes from users, desperately waiting for You :-)
That is such an obvious scam :-)
Last time I waited 2 weeks withour Premium, every day 10-30 new hidden likes.
After I bought Premium, ZERO new likes the whole time of Premium, for 2 weeks.
Then from next day again 10-30 hidden new likes every day.
scam

price is much lower than most other apps, under 100 for an entire year. I like the site and the basic functionality but felt like there were a lot of fake profiles or their location was bs. think it has potential to be much better than okcupid or pof.
