    I used Bumble 9 months and loved it. Did a good profile - lots of local and far away responses and met a few men. I had 53% returns from men interested who I "liked". The past 3 months I have no responses - despite I have increased the men I chose to like. I was concerned so contacted a friend who said he never received it. Contacted bumble who said my profile was my problem.. WHY did I get get 53% interest in the same profile the 8 months prior???

    I had not heard of Bumble as a dating app and at dinner party someone mentioned it to me. I signed up for three months. One of the features I like the best is I traveled during that three months, and it would relocate me geographically and present possible matches in that geographical area. I was in Park City, Utah and went out with a nice man for coffee. I was in Indonesia and met a lovely man from Australia that I continue to correspond with, but the best was just as my three months were ending I found my person.

    My impression of the men who were looking for possible relationships on bumble are a little more sincere than on some of the other dating apps. It was easy to use although sometimes it was a bit frustrating that if you didn’t indicate an interest, you didn’t get the opportunity to view the profile again or I didn’t understand how to do it. I know there’s a lot of mixed feelings about dating apps and I’ve had them myself, but I never would’ve met this person if I had not been on a dating app we do not live close together. I’m a very socially active person, but really was not able to meet someone with my interests and values through my social activities.

      I figured after 2 dozen dating sites that have been hit and mostly missed, that I would try Bumble. Been on about 2 months and a guestimate of sending 450 plus likes, I have had zero replies, likes, comments, etc. Nothing. Getting "verified" is an ordeal and whom I want to date still yields a mixed bag. I can not decipher what to pay for, but, honestly, guys, we can do better. Maybe I really am not the gentleman ladies seek.😞

      No means no. A blocked profile means a blocked profile. If your child, sister, Mom said no to a man at the park, work, or restaurant, would like him to show up around the corner approaching them again? No? Didn't think so.

      Bumble will never get my business again. Between the advertising campaign's criticizing a women's right to be celibate, they now have ignored our safety concerns by recycling who we "block". The profiles of known abusers, creeps and profiles we just don't want to see again reappear, and their response to inquiries is we "might change out minds". Uh, no. I've endured enough gaslighting, and I don't need that from a billion dollar company that was established to "keep women safe".

      Cancelled subscription then charged 29.99 for subscription. I originally signed up one week subscription 19.99. Site even said if renew would be 19.99 a week. No help from customer service. Wants email showing charge for 29.99, but was never sent to me. Only saw charge on AMEX.

      Bumble’s "women message first" rule sounds good in theory, but in practice, it just leads to expired matches and wasted time. The app feels slow and clunky compared to Datemio, where connections happen😊 instantly and the interface is smooth. Limited daily swipes and constant paywalls make the experience feel restrictive. Fake profiles and inactive users are still a problem. Unless you enjoy waiting around for nothing, I’d skip Bumble and try a better alternative. Disappointing, to say the least.

      I totally agree with Holly's review I just read. For some reason, I can no longer send or receive messages, "something needs fixing" but of course, something else is occurring. I keep writing their support, but they keep giving me replies that they don't know who I am. I've given them everything about me, it should be easy for them to look me up based on my email address. They have my verify profile, photos, name, age, where I live... do they want my bank account numbers too? You can't call anyone either. All this information about me now over the internet! Are they lying about not identifying me?

      I signed up with Bumble on 3/19 and on 3/22 my profile was blocked. They have no customer service number so I sent a message to their support team for more information. I received a canned response that my email address wasn’t recognized and they needed the phone number attached to my account. I provided that and received the same canned response. I paid $190 for their services and only had the use of it for three days! They have a policy of not giving refunds and I am reporting them to the Better Business Bureau.

      Horrible customer service. They state you can deactivate your paid premium subscription with 24 hour notice and I tried to give 2 days notice when I was having trouble canceling the app. Finally went to a DESKTOP version and was able to cancel but NOT after being charged WHILE waiting for customer service to get back to me. I am disputing the charges with my bank and I'd like to advise you to NOT subscribe - take your chances with the free app, if you must use it. There is no timely customer service and it is extremely difficult to cancel a subscription.
