Badoo

Early this morning (7/2/2022) I became yet another victim of outright theft and banning by this company that accused me of "multiple reports of using hate speech" without showing proof of my supposed violations, and, like so many others, it occured within less than a week (4 days) of my paying for their service.

When I challenged them to either provide proof of these supposed violations or refund my money, I received a return email basically stating "You're banned and there's nothing we can do about it" from some on-staff robot named "Virginia Woolf." If the company itself can't do anything to rectify its own false accusations and banning, who can?

Apparently this British company makes a practice (and a LOT of money) of accusing its paying users of violations of its terms of service just a few days after grabbing our money and permanently banning the accounts for absolutely no provable reason.

After logging my complaint, I received a stock response basically stating "You've violated our terms of service, your account is banned and nothing can be done about it. No exceptions are made." They provided no proof of my "multiple reports" of using hate speech and "discriminating against users" because, quite simply, it never happened and the company knows it - otherwise it should be simple for them to prove it, since there were "multiple reports" of the non-existent "violations."

Badoo is just yet another social media site and app that makes baseless accusations and steals money from its paying members by hiding behind "woke" policies to perpetrate their criminal actions and ban users permanently with zero accountability.

These actions are well-documented on the Internet and in response, the company continues to accuse those from whom they've stolen money of their wrongdoing with no proof whatsoever; it's a beautiful scam if you can benefit from it: make accusations, refuse to prove them, ban already paid accounts, claim that nothing can be done to rectify it and they've just made free money by blocking accounts from using their service. They even continue to fraudulently charge members after banning them since members are immediately blocked from the site/app to remove payment card information, and the company, again, claims there's nothing they can do about making unauthorized recurring charges. Apparently, the left hand doesn't know what the right hand is doing at this British money-making machine/scam business.

Avoid doing any type of business with this thieving company and keep your money.

My account has been blcoked today for the reasons of being rude or abusive behavior. I think there is a misunderstanding on this. I feel like someone wanted me to spoilt her with money for sex and i refused thats why maybe she find that rude to her. Please i need your help.

I have been given a yellow card by badoo for bulling message, I responded to a message sent to myself by the user called sash saying"[censored] off and leave me alone your getting very creepy now!"

The man in question started chatting with me in early 2020, we spoke for a couple of weeks on your platform and then I stupidly gave him my number, all was fine and the he just stopped talking, so I deleted everything. Then about 2 months later he started texting again to which I said I wasn't interested and deleted it again, since the I get at least 2 messages a month from him, I blocked his number and he poped up with another phone I blocked it again then he has turned up on various other platforms and 2 years on it is very creepy. So yes I did swear and I reported him but it seems you have decided to protect him. I have now sent 6 messages to badoo to say this and I have had zero response I want my account removed and I'm not willing to accept your "yellow card"

I accidentally paid for lifetime Badoo premium instead of one day because I tried to pay for one day premium but payment failed and then I tried again but the page automatically changes to lifetime premium. Id kindly ask you for a refund. It happened on June 26th 2022 at around 20:00 Prague time. Thank you for reading this.

He is furious with me now because I want give him money ..he needs to be stop before he hurt another female. His name is Patrick Gilyard and he is 57 and his location is in the Spring Texas area Houston tex I'm afraid of him because he know where I lives

Hello

Kindly give me your info and response, I am asking to unblock my Badoo account.

First I am told my Badoo account has been blocked. From my original message included below you can see that I do not promote my social media accounts at any moment. I do not mention anything of the sort. I am looking for a dance partner. The given reason is wrong, I did not try to get anyone to go to a different social media platform. Kindly check my message sent to friends on Badoo: (English and Russian). You can see I am not breaching any Badoo policies.

Then I am told you have decided to permanently block my profile for being in violation of our Guidelines. I read your guidelines, the stated reason is not true and nothing pertinent to my case can be found.

Then I am told to get in touch with your customer support team.

Then I am told I am trying to reply to a thread that is no longer active. Unfortunately, my message hasn't been sent to your customer service team.

With a blocked account and blocked profile of course I cannot contact your bloody [censored]ing idiotic customer service at all to see what miserable deliberations you might foolishly put forward instead of an intelligent response.

Hello Adriana

I am honestly baffled. I have re-read the Badoo Guidelines.

I still have no idea which guidelines I may have violated?

Can you kindly re-consider?

It seems to be harsh and arbitrary customer service if Badoo does not even tell me why you decide to permanently block my profile.

With my most recent messages on Badoo I tell my contacts that I am looking for a tall training partner for salsa and tango dance.

Pardon me: What is wrong with that?

I train intensively, but I am 2 meters tall. I need to search for a tall training partner of about 178 cm, which is extremely difficult to find.

Believe me!

I would extend an invitation to the city I live in: Krakow, Poland. Neighbouring Ukraine.

Of course, one should get to know each first other on Badoo.

But I cannot train partner-dance online. Dance does not happen on social media. This happens on a dance floor.

Badoo is a dating platform.

Some guys write: "Hey, let's grab a beer today!" - Serious or not, I do not know.

I write: "Hey, I want to train dance!" - That is certainly serious, it is even an arduous discipline.

My original message:

Language is not a problem. I wanted to visit Odessa and had booked a flight, but then the war broke out.

I am looking for somebody to help me find a very tall partner to train tango and salsa dance daily in the evening after work. I am 2 meters, so my partner should be 178 cm tall, or even taller.

I can offer a stay in Krakow, Poland. For 2 to 6 months. I can teach her English and German and French if she is interested. She can teach me better Russian and also Ukrainian.

We must be emotionally and intellectually compatible and have a similar good humour. I am easy to be with. But I need an open, sweet and cheerful girl. She does not need to know tango, she can be a beginner. But she should be sporty and ready to learn.

I am single. I am seriously looking for a wife. But first, I think finding a dance partner is easier. Finding love and full compatibility is a rare blessing.

Язык - это не проблема. Я хотел посетить Одессу и забронировал билет, но началась война.

Я ищу кого-нибудь, кто поможет мне найти очень высокого партнера для обучения танго и сальсе ежедневно вечером после работы. Мой рост 2 метра, поэтому мой партнер должен быть 178 см или даже выше.

Я могу предложить проживание в Кракове, Польша. На срок от 2 до 6 месяцев. Я могу научить ее английскому, немецкому и французскому, если она заинтересована. Она может научить меня лучше русскому языку, а также украинскому.

Мы должны быть эмоционально и интеллектуально совместимы и иметь схожий хороший юмор. Со мной легко быть вместе. Но мне нужна открытая, милая и веселая девушка. Ей не обязательно знать танго, она может быть начинающей. Но она должна быть спортивной и готовой учиться.

Я не женат. Я серьезно ищу жену. Но сначала, я думаю, найти партнершу по танцам проще. Найти любовь и полную совместимость - редкое счастье.

Can you kindly re-consider?

I fail to comprehend where you see the difference.

I fail to comprehend where you see the violation.

I fail to comprehend where I may have gone wrong.

My account was blocked and I don’t know why any help

When I logged in on my Badoo account from Nigeria I was taken Verify your account

I pressed in my number but the code wasn’t sent it

Why what’s wrong

Summary:

I purchased a premium subscription for 69.99, got charged an extra 12.49 without any reason or my will. Got blocked from Badoo without any reason, no explanation or prof.

Badoo steel from me 82.48 USD - Do not purchase any plans from Badoo.

Detailed explanation:

On 2.5 I purchased a Premium lifetime upgrade for 69.99 USD; I have been using the dating site for 3 days and on 5.5. I got blocked by Badoo - On the screen was written “you were violating the rules. “

I have written an email to Badoo that my account was blocked without any reason and that I purchased a premium lifetime subscription. They replied with some automatic message.

“You have been blocked due to violation of our Guidelines. Due to this, we will not be able to refund the service you have purchased on Badoo.

For more information, please read our Terms and Conditions here: http://badoo.com/terms. “

I complain again that I want to see proof of any violation of rules - Badoo did not answer; they did not reply or provide any proof.

I claimed PayPal and saw that Badoo took an additional 12.49 for some credits that I did not purchase. They just took it as probably Paypal left the open account to them.

They took 82.48 USD for credits and subscription, and after 3 days, Badoo blocked my profile - no reason, no prof.

Good evening from the Uk.

I made a purchase from Badoo dating site for £5.99 on my Credit card. This process was a two stage process and was fair and acceptable.

By pressing the icon on site tab named would you like to see more matches, this is an example but the point is this stage was miss leading on the web site Badoo and immediate payment of £49.99 was taken from my Credit card. I felt the process was not clear and set out in such a way it was misleading and not a clear process and was not clearly priced on the screen that was provided. for excample on Amazon there is always a 2 stage payment process to make sure the customer is happy with a purchase. I would not have made a purchase of nearly £50 had I know it would cost this. Times are hard at the moment and this has caused me dept that will take time to pay. Again I stipulate the first purchase was acceptable. I have contacted Badoo on Messenger Facebook and I await reply. Kind Regards Thomas Hamilton.

I stopped this app because they where costanly taking money out my account I took the app off my device telling them I know longer used their service and since than they are contienuelng taken money could you stop this please, I shouldn't pay for a service I no longer get.

Fake profiles fake verification of me needs removing and it's coursed a break up because of fake account and verification

Hi my name is Daniel Kuzbik I have problem because I last time 12/04/2022 I bought subscribtion for 5.99 and I dont know why badoo taken from my account aswell 49.99 please cancel that and return my money, this is my address email [protected]@o2. pl and phone number message please [protected], address to my accounthttps://badoo.com/profile/0zAhMACTgyNjgyMjc0NgAglO2F_wmWs4eumMHkMnmwcbarf8wAhMFr7EeMPNhhBwk thank you

I paid for an online membership yesterday (April 12th 2022) for the app Badoo. After one day of using the app (April 13th 2022) I no longer am able to message others or use the app’s services as it has forcibly changed my age. This is unacceptable and it feels like they stole my money and purposely tampered with my account.

Someone contacted my husband recently saying she had a feeling someone had stolen my pictures and faked a profile on Badoo. She send us screenshots of the conversations containing details of our lives, including where we live and where we’re moving to, biggest issue being they know that we have a child. My husband and I have tried contacting Badoo for help but because we haven’t got an account with them, they refuse to help. I want to know who this was! They know where we live ffs! I’ve reported this to the police but yet to hear from them. Is this not important enough for anyone? I have kids and I’m concerned.

I have try multiple times tell you guys u charge for everything I have paid so much on here and that is not fair at all things need to be change on your app stop charging for every chat I can't even talk to anyone on here without costed money

Just noticed you charged me a $1.99 everyday since february, even after canceling the service, and now you aren't responding to me on any forum. Give me a phone number. Apparently this is too short, so ignore this part.

This is fraud.

My photo is being used in your app and that is not me. My friend saw this profile today and sent it to me. My name is Akvile and I am 17 years old (underage), I don't like seeing pictures of me in dating app.

Was robbed at gun point at a first time meet up
