Getting unbanned from Tinder: get your account back with these tips (2023)

A Tinder ban is a full stop to your online dating career on this app. If you misbehave, or are considered as so by Tinder, you have different stages:

First stage, the shadowban.

When you are shadowbanned, no one will be able to see your profile but you won't know anything about it.

To know if your profile is at high risks of being shadowbanned, you must absolutely analyze it with a professional tool that has been trained on thousands of top profiles and ranked by hot girls.

Second stage, the ban.

The ban is the action of logging you out. And preventing you from logging back in. In some cases, it is also the plain and simple deletion of your account!

By the way, don't bother to get unbanned if it's to use exactly the same profile. Tinder will notice it, and ban you (again). So take this opportunity to make your best profile ever using scientific and proven methods provided by the #1 profile review tool: ROAST.

If you are banned, you loose all the premium features. You won't be able to use this phone number. That's the Nuke!

Reasons for being banned are numerous.  Some of these things might sound obvious, but it's always good to know what to avoid.

Here are some of the things that can get you banned from Tinder:

• Hate speech, racist comments, offensive language.
• Sexually explicit content.
• Harassment.
• Spam - trying to drive traffic to another site.
• Threatening physical harm.
• Fake accounts - don't pretend to be someone you're not, they can spot a fake profile.
• Using inappropriate language.
• Offering commercial sexual services.
• Getting reported by other users - keep in mind what you might be doing that could upset the other person.
• Using tinder for promotional purposes.
• Inappropriate photos, animal corpses, sexual things and so on.
• Abusing the tinder algorithm

I will add that you should be careful with anything that could be linked to political subjects. Not much to win there, and big risks!

Being a paid subscriber doesn't change the rules — so even if you've got Tinder gold, you still need to follow all of the community guidelines.

Third-party apps

Many apps have popped to bring so-called new functionalities to Tinder. Or mostly, to bring things for free (or less money) that are only available in Tinder Gold or Tinder Platinum.

When it comes to automated swiping, it could be seen as OK. What happens when you hit Tinder directly on its money thingy? Right, they retaliate.

So like any other app, they don't like much that third-party apps plug into their field.

If you want to go this route, pay attention to the app you're thinking of using, and read their reviews. And think very carefully before you give out your credit card number.

Both the dating apps and the third-party apps are always evolving, so keep in mind that it's always possible that Tinder will figure out what some of these apps are up to, and you could end up losing your account!

Using a VPN app or a VPN service is dangerous, likely to bring to the same result.

You have to understand why you are actually getting banned. Like any social network, Tinder wants to keep its user safe. That is why there is no official appeals process. They favor victims as a choice to keep people safe.

That way, they think that they will keep the most offenders out of the network.

Why is it also sometimes so hard to recover from bans? Well simply because of their design! A ban in a company is often someone pushing a big red button that destroys your account!

Even if they wanted, they could not come back on the decision.

I guess you understand now that between the process itself, and the will to guarantee safety, it is often a one way street. And therefore why so many people can be taken in the crossfire and unrightfully get their account banned.

No you cant, but yes.

Tinder ban appeal

Here what is the current state of the appeal process with Tinder: There is no formal appeals process! However, you an can create your own simple appeal! The idea is to do a polite appeal.

First you need to contact tinder customer service. It is not a super easy task! Like any other app they do not want to be flooded.

It is almost impossible to join the tinder support system on a phone freely, and you can't email Tinder anymore. Instead, use this form link, but likely to change with time! You can simply Google it otherwise!

And then fill out the form!

Once you are there you need to plead your case. Reach out to us if you need further help. But the idea is to be genuine. Especially if you did nothing against the community guidelines and you think that your account was just automatically cancelled.

But remember: polite appeal.

You won't get an immediate answer but they are usually quite reactive! Wait at least a few hours before anything.

Make a new tinder after being banned, the hard reset

If an appeal doesn't work, you're going to have to start over from scratch, making sure you provide all new information.

To do that, you need a completely blank slate to start from. So, first things first, you need to uninstall Tinder and delete the Tinder app from your phone.

Next, you need to remove any links to your social media accounts like Facebook and Instagram. You'll need to log into these social accounts to delete the connection.

I guess you start to understand that you’d better had put your energy in making a great profile at first instead of wasting your time on resetting your account, especially when ROAST can do it for you in less than 2min without any risk. So think about this for the next time and don’t worry we all have been here.

Now it starts to get tricky. Tinder, and other dating apps, are also tracking your device. So, if it happens to be time for a phone upgrade, great. Otherwise, you'll need to work around this. At least try to get a new device id!

If you're not getting a different device, you'll need a new device id. From my experience, it is easier on an android device.

This will look a little different depending on what kind of phone you have, so you'll need to look up the specifics for your model.

Next, you'll need a new SIM card or a new number. Using a friend's phone number might work if you'll have easy access to confirmation codes that get texted to them. Otherwise, you can try something like a google voice number, potentially from a new google account if Tinder already had your previous account information.

Tinder may also tracks your IP address, so that's another area where you'll need to start fresh. To get a new IP address you can either reset your WIFI router or use a VPN.  Warning with VPN though, can backfire HARD.

I summarized here the process of resetting. Except here you do not need to delete your account.

Once you've reset your information and have a blank slate, you're ready for a new beginning!

Why did my tinder account get banned?

You behaved poorly and the Tinder Team sanctioned you!

More seriously, you may have broken some guidelines, knowingly or not. Even small details in pictures can get you flagged nowadays so check if this is your case before anything else now.

You may also have fallen in a trap, being considered as a spam account. That's usually the case if you use a VPN service for instance! You get instantly shadowbanned, and likely to be banned.

You can also have been the victim of malicious people. Like I said earlier, it is now common to go after someone this way.

Basically, you can have done one (or several) of those type of actions:

• Playing with the fire: you have tried to be smarter than Tinder technologically.
• You had an issue with other Tinder users. Regarding your bio, pictures or conversations. So make sure to review your pictures and bio first using ROAST so that you will stand up from the crowd no matter what happens, even making the hottest girls like you.

Be sure the first section, and try to understand what may have happened.

Don't let people strike first

There is a lot of abuse in the report system. Tinder is still young and booming, so they are not fit yet to filter everything properly.

Be respectful, that's the ground rule.

However, if you have a doubt that someone may try to abuse the system to report you, you may need to take measures first.

• Use the feature to HIDE your profile to potential ex's that may be tempted to not fully let you go.
• In case a conversation goes south, just unmatch the other person, and part ways peacefully.

Those little tips can make a significant difference in your banning chances, also knowing that those of our readers that are using ROAST have statistically 54% less chances of getting banned, so like them be part of the untouchable top 1% of Tinder men today!

How long does tinder ban last?

Most likely? Forever. An account banned is usually staying as-is forever, except if the appeal works!

Unlike "Facebook jail" which is used as a temporary punishment for misbehavior, a Tinder ban is usually permanent. Sometimes you get a warning message first, indicating that you may have violated community guidelines. If that happens, take it seriously. You may not get another warning before ending up with a banned Tinder account!

And when they ban your account, you lose everything. All your matches, all your conversations, everything. So the best option really is to avoid a ban in the first place.

So once again, if you make a new account or reset it, please be sure to make things properly this time, or if you are thinking about changing app, please know that all the algorithms are very similar so you should also put more energy in optimizing your pictures and description before.

How to get back on tinder after being banned

You guessed it. During the previous steps you had to delete Tinder, and that means you need to download Tinder and start over with a new account. Bye bye old account!

Try to view this new account as a chance to do everything better this time. Make a new Tinder profile that's better than your last one. Here are some ideas on how to do Tinder right.

Wouldn’t it be great if 100 hot girls could tell you what they like instead of making random tweaks every day and wasting time and energy? This is what ROAST does for you, and this is how all of our subscribers are stealing all the hot girls from Tinder now.

When making your new account, you've got a chance to rethink what pictures you share. Make sure they're all within the community guidelines and make sure they're all different from before. Remember, everything about your new account needs to be brand new.

To create your new account, you'll either need a new Facebook account, or you'll need to link your new account to a new phone number (addressed above) and a new email address. Using the same device is possible, although not really recommended.

Every piece of information you share to sign up needs to be new, so depending on your device and how you decide to sign up that could mean a new Apple ID or a new Google play store account.

If you're planning to pay for a Tinder subscription or for any of their special features, make sure you use a new payment method.

While it may have been frustrating to deal with a Tinder ban, remember that like any dating app, Tinder's terms are in place for the sake of user safety.

This time around try to follow Tinder's rules and community guidelines and you won't have to worry about getting slapped with a permanent ban again.
