Never give them your credit card details, as they will charge you even after you cancel the subscription. And 80% of female profiles are fake!
I clicked on the purchase premium for life button by mistake and was charged 119.99 and as it was near the back button it was easy tp do.. i contacted them straight away and only to be told as my app was open this counts as having used services.. what a joke as i hit the button by mistake in the app.. its a trap.. i am considering a small claims court action unless this can be resolved.
I am a member of badoo, with premium membership, what a waste of money. Cannot contact visitors to my profile as it says i have chatted too much, thats why i got premium.. and locals, my age group they ask for credits. Join if you want, just never pay them money,
I am an experienced user of online dating sites and have grown wise to the ways they try to extort extra money out of you, however my experience with Badoo has definitely topped the lot. With my card details saved from a previous purchase, I *apparently* clicked on the default option of Lifetime Membership instead of Back. One wrong click and I'm billed £120 instantly! Their own terms and conditions outline a full refund is offered, yet Customer Service are trying to squirm out of refunding me with a nonsensical argument. I will take them to a claims court if I have to. Avoid!!! The free service is worthless to your average guy anyway.
Not very good u cant meet anyone because it's a chatting site and it should be free why pay to meet or pay for credits
Badoo select all lady have charmed and block them to the men want contact , push them to buy their product, Badoo use private life of member , this is totally illegal..they are cheating and they let people to use porn pictures..must be closed asap
CHARGING YOUR CC WITHOUT AUTHORIZATION EVERY DAY, SOMETIME TWO TIMES A DAY. DON'T PROVIDE ANY BANK OR PERSONAL INFO TO THOSE SCUMS, THEY WON'T REPLY, NOR MAKE ANY CONTACT WITH YOU WHATSOEVER, EVEN IF YOU EMAIL THEM EVERYDAY.
If you are an American you will more than likely get scammed from this site. I've read hundreds of reviews on Apple, Google Play and online about this shady site. And my opinion is to not trust them with ANY of your personal photos, or credit cards.
A simple Google search showed me that Badoo is owned by Russian billionaire/ entrepreneur Andrey Andreev and has ZERO consequences to American law. Stick with American dating apps, people. DO NOT SHARE YOUR CREDIT CARD WITH ANYONE ON THIS SITE!
Contact the Apple and Google Play stores and complain to them about Badoo's deceptive credit card practices and scammy way of Badoo kicking people off its site/app.
My profile was blocked today for NO reason at all. Badoo sent me a vague email saying I had broken its community guidelines - which wasn't true at all. Most of the reviews online centered around Badoo charging customer's credit cards and kicking people off its site. No reason was given to any of them as to why they were suddenly blocked from access to its site.
Do not trust them with any of your cards, or PHOTOS! That's the only way Badoo makes money -- These Russian snake-oil salesmen know they can skirt American laws by scamming and running its customer's credit cards. I will be contacting Google Play later on today to tell them this app is a 100% scam! I hope others join me in expressing their frustrations and opinions to Google and Apple!
This website is a fraud. It floods users with ads, pop-ups and offers to purchase paid features. Many accounts are fake and it is hardly possible to find there people for quality communication.
I am partially sighted and I have problems reading text on my phone. I must have clicked where I shouldn't have and, BOOM, I was a premium member. ONE CLICK!! They are out to screw the handicapped. These guys are about as dishonest as they get.
If you're an average man with average looks, and you're 40-plus, you have about as much chance getting a date on Badoo, than you do winning the Lottery every week for a year. It's not going to happen. I am that guy. Average looks and 43 years old. I had a profile on there for three months. I sent messages to average looking women. Some looked at my profile, none messaged back. My photo was also rated 1 out of 5. I don't know what purpose that serves other than to try and cripple the confidence of whose photo it is. I'm thick-skinned so it didn't bother me. But I had this vision of women low rating guys just to make the guys feel hurt. That aside, Badoo just like POF, has a database of anti-social women who don't wanna chat and most certainly don't want to date. They're so shallow, if you're not a hot guy they won't even reply. And this coming from average to below average women. Fat and middle aged. Unbelieavble. A waste of time.
I have been on Badoo on and off for a while now, I remember when you could comment on other members photos as well. Shame they stopped that.
They use to have a cool credit top up feature where you can message someone for free or 10 credits or top up 10 credits but now the minimum required to message a user/badoo member will cost you 150 credits! Tell me Badoo team?? Why does it cost 150 credits/ £1.50 to send one message? Please let me know why? It use to cost 10 credits last year. I disagree the way you have hiked your prices up at the expense of many of your loyal members.
So if you only have 5 credits left on your account then to chat to one person would cost you £3 GBP (for 200 credits). Also if that badoo member doesnt reply or deletes their profile then you would have wasted £3 and 150 credits! - When before it would cost you 10 credits only!
Also an increase number of fakes on there as well sadly. I hope badoo looks into this a little more for the benefit of their users/members!?
Stay safe all!
Best wishes,
Sean
I was a member for well over a year with no real problems whatsoever.. Accumulated a few blocks.. Female members easily go that way if not even just out of spite.. Lifetime membership.. Yeah right.. Any random idiot can block you there and there is no way to prove your case.. Because you are blocked you have no access to any of your conversations anymore.. They are very willing to take your money but have no customer service or dispute resolving of any kind.. Blocked is blocked.. Kiss your $ goodbye..
They block my account after I spent a lot of time doing live. They were worried that I will whitdraw the money. This application is a big fat lie. They are making a lot of money ..
I just found out why my bank account is continuously overdrafting: for three months now, Badoo has been drawing $1.99 every day for a daily premium subscription. The way they word their options is deliberately deceptive and will have you thinking you're paying once and using their premium services until they expire, but this is not the case; they will charge you regularly for whatever amount you consented to be charged once. I've since removed my credit card info and cancelled my subscription (of course they keep those options hidden in the settings options), but if that's not enough I'll take it up with my bank.
Leave it to the $#*!ing Ruskies to come up with something so shadowy and vile. It's like they took OKC and bastardized it into a digital leech with a dating app's exterior. Don't give them any of your information and tread lightly if you're going to use Badoo- or simply skip to a better site or app that'll give you greater results without costing you a penny.
badoo should be shut down..i dont have an account with badoo someone made a fake profile done payment for things i try to contact badoo customer service threw email thet decide to ignore for a few weeks now all i want to do is sort out what my refunds i show them proof also and still nothing even ask for details of who i can contact to sort out getting my money back..people do not waste your time on badoo fake ass people take money
*** THIS APP IS A SCAM!!*** DO NOT SAVE YOUR CREDI INFO !!, they will make you pay for an expensive subscription if you click wrong once. They want to obtain payment details, and then trick you into making outrageous payments. They do this by providing 'one-click payments' defaulting to large sums of money.This app is maliciously designed to make you pay by accident. They will not return any accidental payments. They will not even reply to your complains. **AVOID THIS SCAM!!**mers pay by accidental click.
I was setup Badoo 4 months ago, I still waiting new girlfriend but many view my profile & went automated messages me still blanked 17 times & some who 'like' me no view my profile or message me first, some lovely women I been sent message still not reply me, I bet many fake profiles or scammers on Badoo, there no one any real UK women view my profile then message or chat me.
Need stop automated message me when someone view my profiles.
I live in UK & alone can't get girlfriend in UK area,
I not paid to premium is risky scam.
Just go night club or pubs meet more real people than dating online many fakes & scammers.
See my picture many automated message me.
They gave me a one time offer to buy premium features for only $5. I agreed gave them my payment details and they charged me $70 without my permission. They are lying to people and doing scam. This has to stop. I have to file a report in police station.
You aren't allowed to show ANY skin in your profile pics they deleted my account and blocked me because of the shirt I was wearing. Are you kidding me? No warning no nothing! Last time I checked this was supposed to be an adult dating site give me a break
I recently joined this site using their mobile app. The location states that there are several women that appeal to me within 100km of less in area's that are real but its an absolute scam designed to get you to upgrade for a myriad of reasons when, in reality you would end up with a bunch of obese tattooed bogans to choose from. Its a bit like OKC who never seem to have anyone in Australia or within 3000km and these free websites are such bull$#*! as they push all of the upgrade options. Can someone tell me in this era of equality why the hell men are the ones that have to pay???
Best way to break this down is in point form.
1. None of the attractive ones live in your country: 99% of the sexually appealing women require '150 credits' to talk to or the screen says 'she is very popular, you need premium to chat with her'. I once got 150 credits for free as a special offer so I could talk to one of these women. We ended up vibing until I asked her out. She was like 'I'm sorry teehee, Actually I live in Brazil'. Don't spend a cent on this garbage Jew app
2. Referring to point one: the fat/ugly ones you can chat to for free, any attractive women requires payment. Never pay a woman unless it guarantees sex (see a hooker).
3. 3 years ago this app had real attractive local women you could talk to and meet face to face. I met some beautiful women off Badoo back in 2017.
4. The app is infested with shamal traps.
SAME AS EVERYONE ELSE. THEY GRAB MONEY FROM YOUR ACCOUNT WITHOUT PERMISSION. DO NOT REGISTER!! IT IS A SCAM!
I AM FILING A REPORT WITH THE POLICE. THEY HAVE TO BE STOPPED!!!
I joined Badoo few months ago and made an account. I am a transgender and I get hit on
a LOT and some guys even want to offer me money in exchange for meeting up with them. Truth be told I have never received any dime from anyone online. And yet some member reported me apparently for prostitution. With no warning, they blocked my account and I received an email informing me the nature of the complaint. I'm like wtf, how would they even verify that the member's report is true? It was that easy to be reported in badoo and get you blocked. I let it go, and few weeks later I tried making a new account. I tried 3 times, they keep blocking it apparently for breaking their guidelines on the first account. It felt very unfair to be judged with no credible basis. It felt dehumanizing and just aweful to be banned from something you cant even dispute about. Their decision was apparently final even if I emailed their support team. Yes, stay away from Badoo, it's not a great experience there. The company slams the door on to your face with no warning let alone legal basis. I am just appalled how a business treats its members very aweful.
Badoo chat its not chat its place where guys reselling DRUGS and a lot sex efenders like always badoo dont check noone in every single profile you can see seling tina cristal drugs im hope one day badoo turn down because it's not meet chat its drugs dilling
Hi stranger (don't know what ur name is :) Lot off factors that can help you if someone's profile is not fake .check the pictures closely .is there a time lapse ?? Means do all pictures look diff .if yes means they are being picked up from Internet or someone's profile .second if you are chatting with them then ask them to send u a picuture of them doing a certain action like for eg I wouldask u hey I want you to send me a pictures in which you are touching ur eyebrow or standing under a wall clock .if the profile is fake they won't send and come up with all diff excuses if they are genuine they will do it. Rest you can always ask questions which are open ended and remember if some one is lying he won't be able to remember it for long if u ask him the same questions later .rest it's upto ur wisdom

NO. It means the person has JUST been connected (disconnected few minutes ago). RED means offline. GREEN means online.

Hey Gary, It's not possible to set your profile to get featured at the same time every day. If you've opted for the bundle offer, you'll get a total of 3 features for the cost of 2. So when your first feature ends, you'll get another. And then another at no extra cost!
