Badoo I don't recommend it

Girls, run away from this website if you don't want to be used for one night. Most men from badoo don't need serious relationships, they just look for young foolish girls who would fall for beautiful words and a couple of sh$$$y flowers.
Run run away.
I would advise badoo to make up a rating system or something like this both for men and women. So if you met a liar or a gold digger, you could rate this person so everyone could see that this dude is not fair enough.
Maybe you would prevent people from heartbreaking situations.

I don't understand why badoo blocked me. They said I was using a fake account which is FALSE ACCUSATIONS. I am against people who uses fake accounts, and I follow the rules of badoo and abide by its regulations. I am very disappointed because I've been using badoo for months now and it's my first time to use the app. BUT they blocked me. It's so unfair Badoo, you should've done a more proper investigation on this than to block someone with no warning. kindly unblock me Badoo, coz there are NO reasons for me to be blocked in the first place. THANK YOU!

Badoo blocked account

I was busy chatting this morning when I received a message that I have been blocked! The message said I violated a law that forbids any advert, How? Why?I don't sell anything, I'm not into any business, if I was reported it will be because someone asked to make love with me and I declined, It's really not fair, I'm being blocked because I'm protecting my self esteem. What did I do wrong? Please re-instate my account back

Badoo badoo blocked my account.

Hello!

You blocked my account saying that "I decieve other users"! How do I decieve users? Why did not ask me a question? Why do you belive users who lie? My account is veryfied by Facebook. My name is Julia Hench. The user who complained about me asked me about sex using vulgar language. I tried to defend myself. As a result he lied to you saying that I "decieve other users"! Why did not you check it if this the truth or lie before blocking me? Please unblock my account.

My e-mail address is [protected]@yahoo.com My name is Julia Hench.

Badoo extortion of money for very little reward.

Dear Person,

I have recently been a FULLY paid up member of your, money extracting, men abusing, BY WOMEN, dating site .

I paid for my super powers, they where not very super. I had to pay MORE MONEY, for credits, more money for boosts, more money to be seen, more money for more responses, just more money, more money, more money !

When I did get to send a message without the need for MORE MONEY !, I got no replies from most of the ladies, because most of them were, ignorant, stuck up their own backsides, creepy, prudish, complaining, hard nosed feminists !

What makes this all the more difficult to take, is the fact that most women get to operate the site for FREE ! Surly, this is gender discrimination ?

Your site is one big scam to extort money from men and give women the chance to do their most favourite pastime for nothing, which is beating up on men for showing them attention.

I hate your site, it is quite simply A RIP OFF !

Badoo my account was blocked

Hello,

My username is bod.[protected]@yahoo.com
I discovered my account was blocked today. Please note I have been using this account since 2015 and I have not been involved in any malicious act.

Please I will appreciate if my account is reinstated because I have lots of information locked in there. And also verify the reason behind the blockage because I believe lots of people are just pressing the block button on other users account without no just cause.

I will appreciate your swift response and action.

Kind regards,
Peter

happened to me as well. i apparently broke the terms months ago and blocked that account. i tried making 3 new accounts, they keep blocking it. Like wtf did i do? Blow up a mall? I don tunderstand how they are so autocratic, they didnt even give me chance to argue or explain to me what i did wrong. I am so not happy with badoo, it feels dehumanizing their way of blocking people out.

Badoo blocked profile

My profile was blocked. They stated that I have a fake profile. This is not true. My profile, first of all, is verified by Facebook and through photo verification. So, it should be reinstated. I think they need to do better, automated flagging or blocking on profile is not efficient.

Badoo blocked from website

I downloaded badoo and registered only yesterday evening and log on this afternoon only to find I have been blocked without a reason. While logged in a message popped up telling me there was an issue with a server. I pressed okay to which it logged me out. I re entered my number and password and now I get a message reading 'your account has been blocked, check your email for details' I have had nothing come through on my emails and did nothing wrong while using the site. Why has my account been blocked and is it permanent? I don't understand. I was also verified on all platforms bar twitter.

Badoo profile

15 December 2016 I registered with Badoo and reported twice as a false identity.
However your site request a photo to identify me and I got rejected in every photo I used including the one I have on profile.
After a few rejection the badoo site reports did say profile will be deleted completely off the dating site and no one will see it.
Therefore I have emails since 15 December 2016 till Wednesday 22 June 2017 guys and girls see my profile photo and like it.
This is violating my privacy and misleading your customers what you are suppose to follow regarding terms and condition and your report system listed to customers what badoo site will do. Still my photo is showing onsite for people to see.

Name is Mistyd nickname. Email is [protected]@hotmail.com

Badoo arbitrary blocking on dating site

I have been arbitrarily blocked from Badoo.com more than onetime without explanation, even though I have not violated terms of usage. My photos are AL my own. I never pass private photos without a request, and in every case I am recognizable in my public photos. I have not received any objections from other members nor have I harassed anyone, though I have been harassed.. It is so easy to block members myself and leave them to their devices. In fact, I would have preferred to merely block them and not have to "tattle" in order to do the block. Never have I been given a reason for being blocked or questioned about my photos or given an opportunity to respond. You make it very difficult to do so because you have no good on line contact point. I paid a fee once and was blocked before the expiration. I thought to pay for lifetime membership but decided against it because of my negative experiences before. I believe that I should be reinstated, though I find it unlikely that your shoddy business practices will allow it. I will advise every one of my contacts with whom I have alternate methods of my experience and ask them to pass on information to their friends to seek alternatives to Badoo.com
Since you allow no space for return information herewith is mine:

My account I in the user name of Frede 74 yeas in Porto Alegre, Brazil
[protected]@hotmail.com.

I don't expect to hear from you but were I a paying member, you would most definitely be hearing from my solicitor for explanation of your very arbitrary business practices.
