Unfair and disappointing. Never had any issues in the past. I recently reactivated my account and was banned immediately afterward without any explanation. Support tells me I was reported as a "fake p... See more

Happn limits the number of messages one can initiate. They provide a countdown meter showing the hours/minutes/seconds until we can. My "start your next Flashnote" began 1:05:45. After reaching 0, i... See more

HAPPN UK = Not Happening!!

Joined 30th November 2025 for £29.99 for one month. VERY disappointed. Sent this email to their Complaints Email at 22:25 GMT 4 December:

I subscribed to your dating app 5 days ago for 29.99. You say in your marketing you have 100 million world with 3 million in UK. See attached

This cannot be true. Every time I run a search I am lucky to get 10 profiles of which only 3-4 will say ACTIVE RECENTLY. Most times this is what I see attached

I am not happy with this and feel you have misled me. Can you refund me my £29.99 and let’s call it quits?

In addition the site is slow and clunky plus the AI Validation software is CRAP!

Patience is a virtue

I joined this app as I wasn't having any luck with the other apps. I had this app for one day when I came across my fiancé's profile. We've been together for nearly five years. He proposed to me at the Radio 2 festival. I would have never met him if it weren't for this app. In all honesty, he wasn't my type, but now he is my only type xx

Been on here for a while

Been on here for a while. As you are here longer you gradually have less access. Constant bombardment to try to get upgraded. I've just had a message that my profile will disappear...LAST CHANCE

Customer services are awful cancelled…

Customer services are awful cancelled before request was processed noting current concerns re Mounjaro still awaiting for a refund despite 3 emails and 3 phone calls. Now passed to yet another department and another 10 days to wait for refund!
Avoid this company !

Avoid as no support from Happn

I upgraded my account and their app stated it was still a standard membership. I decided to log out and log back in and this was the worse decision I made as I can no longer log into the app. I try to enter my phone number and its an error. When it does work, it is asking me to create a new account.

When I try the email method, I receive the email to log back in, but this will only work on the internet not the app.

I have written to customer services 3 times and no response from them. In the end, I had to let google play know that I paid for a product and the product does not work.

So many issues I would avoid this app.

They're scammers

They're scammers, they took £249 from my account for Mounjaro 10m when you can literally get it elsewhere at £147. I tried to get my money back, but they won't.
Be careful folks, they will store your bank details and remove money without even letting you know. SCAMMERS

Be careful with one click pay

When they get to know your bank details they will charge you most likely for a year or a quarter (if you're lucky). The app itself is useless - a ghost 👻 👻 city with maybe a handful of real people. It's early days yet but my experience with J4Meets.com
has been much better. I will go with the flow and see what happens next, but for now I am happy meeting girls for real (offline) via this platform. When you are a free trial member on Happn, they flood you with computer-generated messages so you think they have a large pool of people. But they just want you to pay for membership. There is no continuation to that correspondence. They don't care what happens after you have paid.

Not good full of scammers

Not good full of scammers , perverts , weirdos and undesirables . As a rule everyone should be verified as a lot of the time people are catfishing using other people’s photos etc . Really awful and embarrassing
Better vetting , the amount of times I have had to report a profile who was using photos of a famous doctor but then discover that person’s profile is back and has the audacity to like my profile again 🤨😒… just scary

A complete sham

A complete sham. DO NOT subscribe. All of my conversations were with AI generated people.
This website needs to be taken down but how is another matter.

I’ve been giving...

I’ve been giving Happn a try, and honestly, it’s a pretty interesting app. I like how it’s different from the typical swipe-based platforms. The idea of connecting with people you’ve actually crossed paths with adds a real-world element that you don’t get on a lot of other dating apps. It’s easy to use, and I’ve come across some great profiles that have made it worth the effort.
Now, if you’re on Happn primarily to find something very casual, like a one-night stand, it can be a bit hit or miss. It works, but it’s not exactly tailored for that kind of interaction. For straightforward, no-strings encounters, something like Yamvoo tends to work like a charm and is a bit more suited to those spontaneous connections.
Still, Happn has a lot of potential, especially if you’re open to meeting people in a more natural, chance-encounter way. Overall, it’s a solid app that’s worth a try, no matter what type of connection you’re after.

Promising app but riddled with fake profiles.

Happn, a French owned dating app/website with a difference in that it is meant to connect people who cross paths a bit like in real life. Not really sure how it works but unfortunately, is falling victim to the same as many other dating sites, a scammers playground of pretty woman matching with you and then wanting to move you off site.

All these apps need to get regulated in my opinion and force person verification as too much fraud and scams occur because of the lack of that.

Not enough people on this in UK but I do like the app but find too many for Scotland located in Edinburgh and seem to be scammers as well they most likely do not even live in the UK so only know the capital.

Like all these apps be aware, do not give out personal info to anyone until you have actually met them in reality if you get lucky enough to get that far.

1/5 as the company needs to do far better to stop its users being subjected to fake after fake profile.

Illegal dating app!

Illegal dating app!. It's not possible to delete your profile only make it inactive. That's illegal!.
It's also impossible to NOT get advertising notifications!. In settings I marked, ONLY NOTIFY WHEN A PERSON SENT A MESSAGE, but I ONLY got advertising notifications, every single f****** day!..

DON'T USE, THEY ONLY THINK ABOUT MONEY, SELLING YOUR INFORMATION!..
