I deleted tinder over a month ago and it's still charging me. I wish to end my subscription. I was under ther impression that I paid for a tinder plus with a one month subscription but apple billing have continued to deduct $28.99 from my account each month. I was not aware I was signing up for a a contract and I'd like to cease further payments for a app I used only the once.
Kind regards.

Dear Complaints Team,

Re: Romance Fraud Complaint,

I would like to report a 'Romance Fraud' which recently happened with a person found on Tinder App.

I started an online relationship with one Bradley Smith of USA origin, via the App facility that allows you to pinpoint suitors around the world. I found this person in Switzerland.

After a pause and then a short time of chatting in the Tinder App he encoutaged me to chat on Google Hangouts. He deleted his connection with me from Tinder where I could no longer contact him.

One day he said he was flying to Dubai for business deal. He owned a company called Crown Oil & Dredging Services. After a period of meetings and presentations he claimed to have won a contract to dredge for oil.

We chatted on Hangouts from September to late November. He wrote every day anf encourahed me to do the same often getting angry at my lack of time for him if I missed returning a message. He professed great love for me quite early. He shared many photos of himself, his daughter and his business plans. He sent pictures of his contracts and company research and even his passport. He encouraged me to do the same. I sent him only a 6 or 7 pictures of myself fully clothed and my young neice and nephew and my two freinds. All pictutes he sent ate attached with this message.

After some time I was convinced the relationship could be real and he wrote of  his visiting London to see me in December for a week while his company shipped materials in the sea from China. He mentioned wedding rings and  a future together for the rest of our lives which I naively believed.

At this point he said he needed money quickly as his China supplier had a shortfall and the new supplier costed $400 per item more for his dredging materials. He claimed if he did not get this money by a certain date to ship the materials that he would loose the Dubai contract through negligence.

I borrowed £1000. Which he said would help greatly, saying he was asking other friends too. On a sunday afternoon I got the money in my account for him. He seemed very, very happy and suggested I send the money via Western Union or Moneygram. This sparked my curiosity! I heard this is a method of payment with no trace. I asked for his bank number but he refused adamantly to send this information. I was unwilling to use this payment method and I suddenly became skeptical.

As soon as I admitted doubt and was unwilling to help he became very hostile. He picked a fight with me regarding some personal faults, though I remained devoted. Eventually he found an excuse to extract himself from the 'relationship' at the end of November 2017.

I am choosing to report this now to protect others from his scam story and scam behaviour. His name is probably fiction and the pictures I suspect identiry fraid. They are all taken at a distance with few selfies. I worry for other victims as his story is convincing. Although no money was actually taken from me I worry other desperate 40 something year old women may be duped into losing money.

Please accept this information against this person or persons who may be part of a Nigerian scam ring so I've heard. His text did mot seem American and the syntax in his words was always odd. At times his letters seemd like a different personality altogether. Please be warned against this name and note his pictures and associate persons as identities stolent with a fraudster(s) posing behind his online connection. I feel it my duty to report this. Thankyou for you attention. I wish to remaon anonymous.

Sincerely
A Tinder victim of romance fraud.

I can never recommend Tinder now.

Hello, it's impossible to cancel my subscription to tinder gold. This is robbery. I've tried everything and there is no option to cancel it and manage subscriptions button is nowhere to be found on my app. Please cancel my subscription to tinder gold before you rob me again. It's linked...THIS IS MY HARD EARNED MONEY, so please next time before charging, think this- there more stuff we need to do apart from dating.

When I try to open tinder it says that my account is under review. Then it says "you have been warned too many times." I've never been warned, not even once about anything. I'm sure I'm not violating the guidelines. I paid for a full month of tinder plus but I'm not able to use it and I'm not getting what I paid for. They're taking too long to review and want my account back.

Hi Tinder support

Thank you for a great app I've been using for almost a year now with great experiences.

However, there is a big issue, which has been a problem for a little over a month now.

I don't know what has happened or if this is just a problem on the Danish Tinder app. But now there are way, way less profiles to swipe through than there used to be.

Usually when I hadn't been on Tinder for a day I would get around 100 profiles or even more to swipe through. Now I get around 10 profiles or a little more but no more than 20 profiles (unless visiting other cities). I've always searched in a 50 km radius.

It worries me if Tinder has made an update that for some reason results in giving me only around 10 % the profiles I used to get as I historically need many profiles to get a match. I don't want to look for competitor apps before I've consulted you, but I'm afraid that will be my solution unless you can solve the issue for me.

Please let me know if you need further information from me in order to help.

Thanks a lot in advance for your help.

Hello,

Please cancel it asap

I had Tinder for a week or two and then got kicked off. My account was under review. I had not sent any inappropriate messages, nor had I been rude to anyone. I figured it was because I said I'm transgender first up, as I've had a lot of hate about it. But I let it review me. But that's not the issue.
It's been three days and I've gotten no emails saying what's happening with it. I've sent two questions to support and still no emails! I just want to get back to my dating.

Hello, My name is Meagan.
I'm filing this complaint in regards to being advised by a person of whom I don't know, that someone has created a tinder account under my identity.
They have created me under (Megan 35).
Could your admin please delete my profile as I'm a married woman.
The person has obviously copied and uploaded a picture of myself from my Facebook profile.
I see this behaviour as a complete invasion of privacy.
Could your admin please rectify this matter.
My contact email is as follows should you need to contact me.
meagan.[protected]@gmail.com.

Kind regards
Meagan O'Meara.

I cancelled the subscription after i was charged 520 in the afternoon, i want refund for this as i was not aware of the fact that the subscription is monthly.
Order id- GPA.[protected]
It has not been even a month when i applied for the first time.
Now i need the refund for the amount deducted today please help me with this. That's not correct from your part to charge the amount when it has not been even a month and I don't want the subscription, the amount got deducted today and i cancelled the subscription today only please send me my refund.

I paid a six month subscription for Tinder Gold and this was revoked from me on the 2nd of December (having only been subscribed for 2-3 weeks).

I believe this to be an error but my complaints have been ignored. Please can this be looked at immediately and having paid £104 approx for 6 months can my subscription be reinstated immediately? Thank you.

Kind regards
Paying Customer.

My account was deleted by tinder for violating rules. I have been bullied on tinder and harassed for sex. Is that not breaking the rules? I was wondering if I can have my account not deleted as I believe I have done nothing wrong. I believe I did nothing wrong and I am deeply sorry for violating the rules. Is it not okay to put my Snapchat account on tinder?

I purchased the tinder gold, and today when I went to login it asked me to login using my facebook and or phone number, but it never connected. When I called customer support, I got the run around, and the rep - Daniel keep saying he was going to refund my money but use digital currency! I didn't use digital currency to purchase the plan, I don't want digital currency to be refunded. On top of that, he wanted access to my computer, and my niece caught him trying to login into other accounts such as amazon, paypal, and access my camera on the computer. And after an hour and half, nothing was resolved! He keep trying to say, he was just verifying my email, blah blah blah! I just want my money back! And make sure my information is deleted!

I am extremely confused. I just got a notification from Tinder that they deleted my account for violating terms. I have not violated any terms. The only thing I can think of is that I posted that on HSV positive because I think potential daters should know that.
I would hope that that isn't the reason. To me being responsible isn't a reason to be deleted.
I hope they refund my money.

I paid for an upgrade this morning. I then realized it was not the "gold" membership that I wanted. When I clicked on the gold it showed that for $13.00 (?) more I would get the gold. When I chose to do it, there was a prompt telling me I would be refunded the first amount and charged the gold membership fee. I did this and when I checked my banking discovered that I was, in fact, charged twice.
I then called [protected].
The first person I spoke with didn't identify themselves and I had to make sure that I was actually contacting the Tinder help line.
After 15 minutes on the phone, most of it on hold, the call dropped or was hung up. (Apparently I was speaking to "Nicco Wilson")
Called back. Eventually spoke with "Brad" who is a supervisor, his English only slightly better. On the phone for 20 mins this time, to be told that Tinder does not refund anything less than $200, so if I want the $30 back that I paid for my original upgrade, I have to deposit $200. The reasoning for this was that the government charges $25 service fees for payments returned. Brad was very rude, and fundamentally couldn't understand my issue. When I asked to speak to a mananger he told me calling back would be a waste of my time as there was no one else to speak to. Unreal. The whole interaction felt like a complete scam.

Someone is on tinder using the name Jake and is currently using my pictures as their profile. I would like to be resolved immediately because I do not want my pictures out there for other people to get hurt from a catfish. Two that's freaking creepy and weird that someone is using my pictures as a profile. 3 I do not want my name being thrown out there for other people to talk about

I have been on tinder for 6 years.

About five months ago I opened my app and my ENTIRE profile was gone. I logged in with Facebook like I always have but My matches, pictures, bio, everything, was gone. I sent an email to support and pleaded for some help, I had 12000 matches, some of whom had become friends of mine that I only corresponded with on the app. I also had a subscription to tinder plus. After two weeks the support team was able to help me get my subscription back but they informed me that I must've have "accidentally" deleted my account (impossible) but I was able to continue using my tinder plus subscription and start again. After a few months of swiping with my new profile, the same thing happened. I was logged out and couldn't gain access to my profile. This time the account was no longer attached to my Facebook, instead my phone number but I could not log in. I contacted support and have been going around in circles for nearly a month where they've told me to delete my account (that I have no access to) so I can restore the subscription(s) - I now also use tinder gold - they have also told me to send information and pictures and it continues in circles until they stop replying and I have to contact them again and begin the process - meanwhile my subscription continues to roll over and I am NOT paying $87.99 for something that I do not have access to. I am very annoyed by this.

I have been on my account every day for the past few months and with no issues. Today I wake up and try to go on to my account it asked me to login with Facebook or my cell phone number I put in my cell phone number and never got a code to log into my account which I have never had to do before. After entering my phone number for about 20 times it finally send me an SMS code through text message, Once I enter the code my entire account is deleted and it is making me start all the way over from the beginning I lost all of my matches my contacts all of my messages and all of the people that I have met are all gone, why did this happen?

Hi,

I signed up to tinder online dating in August 2017. I haven't had tinder online dating for the last three weeks. I never signed up to any deal yet I just had a direct debit of $28.99 for Tinder Plus ( automatic renewal) from my account.

Please make sure this doesn't happen again and I want the money reimbursed to me

Thankyou
