This review was chosen algorithmically as the most valued customer feedback.

I have thousands of guys who liked my profile and pics but a few bad apples find I am trans they get upset that they matched with a tranny. They tell me that I should leave this app because it is for straight men only but I ignore them because they are bald ugly old guys. I have met so many hot straight guys on there looking for girl like me but the bad apples report me and then badoo kicked my account for no reason. I never insulted anyone never posted obscene material never argued with the bigots just delete them and move on. Problem is a percentage of all men think they own everything so they want trannies gone to the margins like before and unfortunately badoo let them win. I am blocked because I am transgender. Next time girls, don't even disclose our status just fool them into it like I did many times before. If they want us to hide who we are we will and they will get lured even more into falling in love with a tranny only to have a surprise at the end.

I have the same issue. I have created 3 accounts already. And guess what? All of they were blocked... Coincidence? All transgender woman should file a class action lawsuit against Badoo

Hi there,

As explained in the response to complainant, Badoo users are not blocked based on their gender identity or sexuality. We welcome everyone and we strive to create an inclusive environment for all users.

However, often our rules our overlooked and we would encourage all of our users to familiarise yourself with them here: badoo.com/guidelines. If you truly believe that your profile has been blocked by mistake, you can reach out to us via social media @BadooHelp and our team will be happy to double check the original decision to block your profile.

We look forward to hearing from you,

Badoo Team

Unfortunately in 2019 This issue is shared by many trans people all around the world. It is clear that we are not welcome or wanted on their platform and its time that unite and create our own platform. Until then keep in mind that you can alter your setting within the app to use invisible mode (in case the same creeps keep reporting you). Another tip is to stay away from the app and only access site through encrypted or private browsers, keeping in mind that you may need to verify through photos before sending or receiving messages. Since I was granted an appeal last year and my profile was reinstated, the same thing happened but this time Jake and the help team upheld the ban because of a once and done policy. Now the only way I can access the site is by creating profiles that I cant verify with my phone number. To keep track of which login to use I started creating a n email chain hatebadoo1@fakemail.com and I'm already up to hatebadoo19@fakemail.com. Hopefully I dont make it to 100.

We alll have the same issue all the time and they keep blocking the trans, it is getting annoying. It should be because maaaaaaany guys write to us and we can not answer to all of them. Always Badoo block the trans and says they are not against them. So why you do not have the option for trans then. We are definitely not welcome on the website and that’s very sad! And why block all the time ? That’s ridiculous from you guys.
