I was banned on Bumble 07/13/2024. I tried multiple times to reach a live representative that could explain why I was banned. I received multiple times the same response stating that the ban is permanent and that I violated community guidelines. I asked what community guidelines I broke and received two automated responses.

After an investigation and much consideration, we have made the decision to permanently block your account for being in violation of our guidelines: https://bumble.com/guidelines.
We want to make sure that Bumble remains a fun, friendly, and, most importantly, safe place to make connections, so all members must comply with our guidelines to use Bumble.
Our decision about your profile can't be changed and exceptions will not be made.

We have investigated the block placed on your account extensively, including it being reviewed by multiple support team members, and I can confirm that the block was issued correctly.
To protect the integrity of our moderation processes, we are unable to provide any further details about this block. Please trust that these decisions aren't taken lightly, though we are always happy to review them as we have done on this occasion for you.
As we've now reviewed this block for you on multiple occasions, we will no longer be able to respond regarding this matter.
You can review our guidelines here:

If they block you, they will not respond to your support messages and the only thing they will say to you on social media (Twitter/X) is we respond to everyone and we don't block for just any reason. They are quick to go on defense (Look under Trustpilot), but they will never fix their problem. Tons of people have been wrongfully blocked and it has never been fixed.

Do not use this site, I had only been on the site for 2-3 weeks, and if you read the terms and services, they pretty much keep track of the photos you have/had posted and of your IP address and phone number so if you try to make a second account you will be banned instantly.

I do NOT recommend Bumble to anyone who values their time, money and has dignity. This site is an expensive crap with zero customer service. They can at ANYTIME deny your access to your account and KEEP your personal info and pics. A total game of power.

I met Bruno Poirier 3 years ago. He is schizophrenic and bipolar and has narcissistic tendencies. He is extremely verbally and physically abusive. Also sexually perverted. He was charged with 5 counts of assault. Ladies do not get involved with this man please stay away. He will hurt you and destroy you.
I uploaded his photo.

At some point they decided to verify my photo. I sent them several pictures. They rejected all of them. Their requirements are ridiculous like "You copy the pose exactly", "Your photo matches your profile pictures". Do I have to go back in time? Do I have to drive 100 miles to the forest I had as background? They claim they use facial recognition software. Probably from 19th century.

Avoid bumble
November 16, 2023

Yet another bad review for bumble. Surprise, surprise (sarcasm). They banned me. I contacted bumble support several times to ask why I was banned. They refused to let me know. Fine. Don't tell me. Leave me in the dark. Well. If you choose not to tell me what I did wrong, at least refund me. Give me my money back. They also refused to refund me. Avoid bumble. Choose another dating app

The female profiles on this site all seem to like hiking, horse riding, yoga, wine, cheese, gin, the gym, and running.
Photos showing a selfie in the gym, crossing the finish line at races, or petting their horse.
Common pre-requisites from the women who are looking for their "partner in crime" include:
"must be able to make me laugh"
"must have nice teeth"
"Must have good banter"
"must have a beard"
Completely false, laughable and depressing at the same time.
Fake profiles and time wasters everywhere, verification means nothing.
The algorithm means you'll find your successful activity lasts around 1-2 weeks, after which your profile will be banished to the wilderness of Bumble, resulting in no more matches, and you'll have seen all there is to offer in the local area.
DO NOT GIVE THEM ANY MONEY.
Avoid this site like the plague.

Let's not talk about the past regarding Bumble because I'm sure there are many who have positive things to say about previous years of bumble. Let me just tell you this in the last 12 months this site results in nothing but what looks like clearly under age illegals and illegals That have been transplanted into the cities they now call home. So if that's what you're looking for bumble is the place to go in addition the ratio of liberals to conservatives on this site is at least six liberals to one conservative. The number of women who love to put in their post how much they hate Trump is only measured by their weight and less than attractive appearance. Listen, I've been on this site for the last four years and nothing has been worse about this site than the last 12 months. I wouldn't find a date on this site comparable, I don't care if the woman was a millionaire. Not one dime would I pay for Bumble after seeing the flood and let me tell you I'm being generous when I call it a flood what I should call it is a meteor impact of illegal underage, girls, and women looking for Mr. Goodbar. Don't waste your money and certainly don't waste your time.

All men beware! I have been bumple for a while and after a lot of swipes this has been my experience. There is rarely a real profile there. Bumble tries to keep you swiping and pay for premium features such as 'compliment', 'super like', etc. Occasionally you will get a match and start texting only to get no response after a text and then eventually be 'unmatched'. Sometimes you send a 'compliment' to someone and get an out of context scripted message and then no response either after!

It ismnot only frustrating but disappointing to know that you are being swindled by an App that calls itself legit. Contacting bumble support for help is impossible. They don't respond to your messages either! Bumble is similar to a scamming 'call center' overseas, but only right here!
