If Bumble is not sexist than nothing is : I cannot send a message to someone because I am a man. Also, I contacted support about several questions, and got terrible responses. I would not be surprised that many employees are sexist there and so they treat men badly. It's unbelievable to me that they are still in business, in a country that is so committed to tackle sexism.

First week: I ended my first video chat when my "chatee" began to masturbate online. I reported the incident but got no support for my emotional disgust and shock. Tonight my "ER Physician" turned out to be fraud. He erased me when I asked him simple questions ( I am a 25 year RN- you can't pull much over on me.) Bumble claims to empower women and provide support. False. But they WILL take your money.

I went to Maui on vacation. I responded to some of the matches in my home area letting them know I was on vacation, but can go out when I get back. When I got back I was banned. Custom support was completely unavailable even though I had the top level membership.

very slow customer service. I got a new phone, same phone number the app was transferred but I could not log into my pro account, the app asked me to upload a photo as though I was not already a member and I have written to customer service at least 3 x about it - no reply!! I would recommend Bumble if the customer service dept. is better staffed and responds in a timely manner like other companies I deal with on a daily basis - customer service is everything!

So many of the profiles are fake. I believe there are more fake profiles on this site than real ones. I had an extremely scary situation last week which solidified my decision to leave bumble. I was speaking to a man from CT. Of course, I asked for his full name so I could do a Google search. This man had been in jail for ten years for raping a 78 year old woman when he was in this twenties. Several years ago, he went to jail again for pulling over five different women and telling them they had sparks coming from the back of their cars. He then viciously attacked them. He is listed on the sexual offender registry. This really scared the hell out of me.

One person stood me up and unmatched me while I was on the way to go meet them so I couldn't report them. And then when I went to start bumbling after I got vaccinated, the app just said I got banned for getting 'several complaints'. I only ever got like 4 matches on this stupid app. I guess no matter what you do you're just not good enough for the girls on bumble?
