Bumble.Com is a free dating app built on the same model as Tinder, but with one unique twist. Women are in the driver’s seat when it comes to starting a conversation.
Bumble aims to cut down on the number of sleazy. Bumble.com Messages women often get bombarded with on other mobile dating apps. That's the main reason why men can’t send the first message.
If you’re the guy whose standard approach to messaging consists of “Hey baby, nice ___” this probably isn’t the app for you. (And if you are that guy, you should definitely read. This article for some Tinder pickup lines that actually work).
Bumble Pros & Cons
PRO:

According to one of the app’s founders, 60% of matches result in a conversation.
The app’s gender demographics are roughly equal, with 55% of users being male.
Setting up an account is easy, because your bio can’t be longer than 300 characters.
CON:

She only has 24 hours to initiate contact with you once you’ve both swiped right. So if a woman you’re interested in doesn’t send you a message, the match is lost. (But keep reading for a way to extend the deadline!)
How Bumble.Com Works
Bumble.com also has a Reactions feature that lets you choose Dating Websites a piece of content in the profile of a potential match, and react to it with an emoji chosen from a selection of 9. The emoji Reaction is revealed if the two of you match.
Women have the option of sending a comment as a Reaction too. Sending a comment counts as the first move if a match results, so this feature makes it easy for women to start a Bumble conversation.
To send a Reaction, tap on the smiley face icon displayed on the piece of content you want to react to.
When you both swipe right a “connection” is made. Once that happens, the woman has only 24 hours to initiate a conversation or the match is lost.
Bumble gives users the option to go beyond the usual back and forth messaging and move to a voice or video call within the app.
That feature appeals to a lot of women, as you don’t need to exchange phone numbers in order to talk to a match.
How to Sign Up at Bumble.com
In the past, the only way to sign up for Bumble.com was through your mobile device. The process starts by downloading the app to your Android or Apple device, then deciding if you want to sign up with your social media or with your cell phone. After that, you’ll be asked to verify your phone number, and then you’re taken to the steps to to build your profile, upload photos, set your preferences, and begin using the app.
If you noticed, we did say in the past. The reason for this is that Bumble recently released. A desktop version of the software where you can sign up. From your computer web browser. The experience is quite simple and not as immersive as the app. But it is nice to have the flexibility to use whatever platform you’d like.
Bumble does not have a customer support phone number. Which we are unhappy about—but we’re divas. We are pleased to see, though, that they have some options. That are a little quicker than sending a canned response in via their website.
They also allow users to message them on Facebook and Twitter for additional support. There are some websites that list phone numbers for Bumble customer support. But the official site makes it clear that these are fake numbers and you should not use them.

Wrapping it up:
It is quite clear that bumble.com is a platform for all the singles out there who want to occupy themselves with someone having the same choices. If you feel alone, get yourself registered on the portal now and be ready to explore through numerous profiles where you can find out people having the same interest as you.
Completely fake app. It shows you lots of girls / guys interested so you sign up. But they’re mostly fake created to make you believe it’s worth signing up.
The website has plenty of profiles but I can only get overweight and unattractive women to contact me. I have always been a good looking guy with an athletic body. I can see several women look at my profile daily but not one message. I’m beginning to wonder if the profiles are even real or active. Maybe the views are done by computer.
It was great meeting the love of my life. But there are some pretty creepy people out there. Just be sure the person you talk to is legit! Video chat and talk about each others interests so you can see if there’s a connection between you two.
Only met once had a nice time… see where it goes! Haven’t really been happy with this website all the male members seem to live out of my area.
What a load of rubbish save your money, waste of time all fake profiles take your money and try to extort more or of you. Messaged loads of profiles never got a reply, load of crap. Keep well at from. Save you money and try more reputable sites.
Pathetic, charge you even if you cancel, don’t even give a confirmation you cancelled, then when you explain you cancelled they say you haven’t hence why you have been charged and you have no proof but the fact you pressed cancel on the app, pathetic, cancellation is hidden as well and hardly anyone uses it
Lot of scammers. Including them… many charges not justified. Hard to understand thier cancelation and how to add services. They trick you with wording.
Stay away. They are dirty rotten company with no morals or ethics that obviously have slave labor deceiving customers! BIG FAT WARNING!!!!
It absolutely looks like a good dating site. Easy to navigate, nice and clean interface and it is mostly cheap . Looks like a nice alternative .
Load of rubbish – don’t bother. They give you no notice the free period is about to expire – debit your account and even if you cancel same day they lock you in for a further 6 months. Scam artists
The platform is inferior and feels very dated. On the app, the photos are cropped so you cannot see faces. There is no method for sorting, deleting matches. When you click on likes, the profile photo has no functionality so it’s impossible to see who liked you without looking that person up on the list of matches. Overall, a very frustrating experience – i do not have the patience to deal with it. I called the customer support number to try to get a refund and was on hold for 40 minutes. Finally gave up
Says in fine print that they will refund your premium membership if you cancel during 3 day cool down period, I cancelled and they won’t Refund because I didn’t write a refund request in those 3 days when I cancelled. No where does it say you have to specifically write a request for a refund. Also they sell your email address, I’m getting German spam.
This has got to be the worst senior dating site around. Wish I had read the reviews before joining. Most of the time I can’t contact anyone or respond to any inquiries- I just get a blank screen that says “none” in the upper left corner. Multiple requests to their customer service are ignored. I did talk to one other member and she has the same problem. This is clearly just a rip-off.
I was in the Dating site for one month. In that time I was contacted by scammers and con artist. For every legit woman I got four scammers. They have fake profiles and fake pictures. There is no monitoring of the scammers. The customer service is terrible. When I contacted them I was told I am not forced to be on the site. I cancelled immediately!
I won’t bother with describing worthlessness of their so-called “services”, since that is more than adequately documented in the other reviews. What really pisses me off is that you can’t access your account to delete it until you pay for a membership. Nothing but a scam.
Do not waste your money on this website. Number one thru don’t have my match and they took money out of my Account after I cancelled. I spoke to the associate who told me that refund cannot be made despite that I cancelled because I am disappointed in the service.
Same as all the rest reviews it’s a scam. Save your money it’s all fake. Leave it to the Latvians and we’re idiots and sad sacks for wanting to believe this crap.
