Horrible
July 6, 2020

What a horrible experience. I do not recommend. The worst part was when they would not allow me to access my account, which I paid for in full, unless I agreed w/ their "values" supporting BLM. However you as an individual feel, you should never be forced to agree with a companies political views to gain access to a service that you paid for in full. I have cancelled... will never use or recommend again.

When overseas
January 21, 2024

Guys like myself if you are in Japan you need to verify your age. Fair enough it asks you for proof ( drivers licence, Passport) which I have done but it will tell you like me can't verify after a few attempts it will lock you out saying you are under age contact support.
Good luck this is where the fun begins 1st response after 3rd day submitted what they asked for still waiting for an answer have been written every day still no answer.
So if you are overseas especially Japan which wants proof that you are over 18 STAY AWAY FROM THIS APP AS IT IS USELESS.

A. You can't filter by race. Really?
B. None of your photos can have a weapon. Sounds ok at first, BUT...there are thousands of us who shoot skeet/sporting clays as a hobby or even professionally and the stupid app wont allow ANY pics that feature me participating in this sport, even with an explanation. I guess my archery pics are forbidden too? Their reply was... "you wont ever meet someone carrying a weapon so it cant be in your photos" Funny, I have a carry permit and might very well meet up with a potential match with my.35 on me. LOL. People have actually been raped or killed on blind dates through dating apps. AND...sporting clays/skeet would be an IDEAL first date for others that participate the sport. Doesnt make me a "killer"..

Don't give them a cent! They gonna ban you anyway. They'll find or invent whatever reason or they won't respond to your email at all. They are nothing but thieves stealing from their paying members. There is so much bullsh*t and rip off in online dating world. The point is you need to take it from online to offline as soon as possible and the site I mentioned helps in doing this. Bumble is worthless! I wonder if they have at least one real female profile – they all look terribly fake. You get to correspond with bots for a few days and then Bumble just bans you without any explanation. Horrible app.

Don't be the subject of their whims. Use AdultsFun.club or other big legit services - there are plenty of other dating sites which value their customers.
But Bumble is a horrible site blocking people's profiles for no reason! They especially like doing it after you've just paid for membership. They give you no explanation. Bumble does not give a f*#k about its customers.
It's very frustrating when you lose all your contacts one day or when someone you're getting close with suddenly disappears. It's problematic to exchange contact information on Bumble because they monitor and modify messages.

Signed up for their $20 a month membership only to learn that if I want to learn of the alleged eight women who have matched with me I have to pay another $20. Otherwise they're just blurred out.

Textbook deceptive advertising.

This app had potential to be good but now its just horrible! Avoid this app like the plague! The men on this app only wants sex from you, dont want relationships, will not message you back if you swiped right way under the 24 hour deadline. Some men have a lot of open realationships with their girlfriends/wives too! Its turning into the next tinder which it already is! Horrible app and a waste of time.

It was a good idea, make a dating app where the woman starts the conversation, you would think it's a good idea right? Wrong! It is a terrible idea, women don't even message first they even have on their profile that you have to message them first but how?! And don't even get me started on when they do message first, one word replies galore they can't even have a proper conversation, this app only does one thing well and that is to show how unintelligent most women on these apps are.

I truly hope they go out of business just because they don't have a lot of filters either on the app, missing a lot of features that they want to make you pay for. All in all pass you won't find quality here.

Bumble made good changes!
September 13, 2020

Bumble has made several changes to it's app making it for the better. I can honestly say due to the change made, I think Bumble is a great app to meet someone. They have a great selection of very good looking men to choose from whereas other apps really seem to be scraping the bottom of the barrel. Bumble has turned much more classy over the last couple of months when before they were quickly heading into the trashy category.
A+ for you Bumble! I would highly recommend this app to any single person wanting to no longer be single. In my opinion Bumble should hands down have the #1 dating spot in Google playstore for dating apps!

I used to be a big fan of bumble, but at the pandemic has gone on men have become more and more aggressive. I do my best to be kind and patient, but when I tell a man thank you but no thank you, and get verbal garbage slung at me and *I get moderated for telling the abuser to f*** off* bumble has a very very big problem. No. Not ok. Read the entire conversation if you need to do that for context. I tell the most recent dude twice he's making me uncomfortable but I say thanks but we aren't compatible, take care. And he becomes abusive?!? Hello!? Do better bumble. It's revolting how a woman will be punished for responding to and defending herself from abuse. Feel free to "moderate" me straight off your app.

I got a message when I logged in a day after a religious bigot blocked me that I was "monitored" and that if there was "another occurrence" my account would be dropped. No explanation as to what I did, no phone number to call, no response when I was able to ferret out their concealed email address.Big Brother is watching.

You get a one chance...
November 21, 2022

You get 1 chance to review profiles and there is no way that you can go back and see them again. Or if you have liked someone. No way to see their profile again. It's like a one-shot wonder. I feel I have wasted my money...
Would I suggest this site to anyone. No. Maybe if they change some of their practices I might.

Scammer Mecca
July 26, 2023

I texted someone and lo and behold they left the country after a short time. Kept in touch, but had a bad vide. I was correct, he was in a jam and needed money. Surprise. No money and haven't heard since. This guy went to a lot of trouble to set up his scam. I contacted Bumble because I thought he might be pulling this on other woman. Never heard back from them and I gave them quite a bit of info.

I set up a free account with Bumble in Nov 2021. I can't remember why I gave my credit card details but i did. It definitely wasn't for a monthly subscription though. I stopped using Bumble after a few weeks and didn't realise, until months later, that Bumble had been debiting my credit card $44 per month, for 9 months! I don't know what I've been paying for but Bumble refused to refund my money, citing their "No refund policy".
They could see that my account had not been used since December but they don't care. Also, they make it impossible to cancel your account. I used Bumble via the app and there is no way to cancel through the app. DO NOT give Bumble your credit card details because they'll charge you for nothing. Very unscrupulous business!

I tried using bumble but my experience is they play with the algorithm. I did not receive matches when keeping it within 50 miles. After being on the site for about 2weeks your matches stop. My preference is to date within my race but only received photos of white males. Bumble to me is no different from all of the other dating sites. No good!

You might have luck here provided you stand 6 foot 8, drive a Lamborghini, own a 6 bedroom mansion & a yacht. I recommend you enter your credit card information right away & get what you pay for. A bunch of royalty looking for millionaires is all you will find here.

They have taken to misleading their customers. They keep sending you notifications that someone likes you or wants to meet you, but when you check it up there are no results. It's not worth a dime, there are better sites. I could not find anyone willing to meet on Bumble. All they do on Bumble is offer you a few matches who haven't been online for months. If you try to narrow down your search you have no matches at all. You have to struggle to cancel your subscription ( it's being renewed automatically), so it's best of all not to get involved with it.

A total rip off
December 10, 2022

It a money making scam, selling overpriced subscriptions, overpriced super likes and compliments. Which I got burnt for twice by deluded female woke-tards full of white racism and gender ideology.
FFS the site even has a "non-binary" third gender selection, like what is that! A "hermaphrodite"? Cause what you are born with downstairs is what you are, hence blue or pink, if you think you can choose, you need to see a shrink,(in a lunatic asylum).
I don't have any screenshots this time, I hastily deleted my profile cause I copped a gut full of mis·andry, all because I prefer women who have meat on their bones and love handles to hug.

Like I said about POF, gents if you are shy, lonely introverted like me, 1st step is admit it to yourself and then see a shrink and get social lessons even social groups. I might see there
