Having had a bad experience with the app, I opted to try again. Now the app tells me that I need to allow access to my location - which it already has permission for. I can no longer search through any profiles. It seems the problem has changed,and the app is just as ineffective. The help desk offered me 3 days premium membership - no use to me if the app can't find my location. Very disappointing indeed

I'm giving 2 stars but only because the app Admin was actually a very nice person when I wrote feedback in a message. Other than that, this app is just not great for meeting. The quality of people using it is low. The subscription is too pricey. Limited features when free. It doesn't cost much to gym and walking/running outside is free. It's also not that difficult to get a haircut. Looks are important for attraction no matter what the slobs and the losers say (and they all want the hot people).

Hello Peter, we’re sorry to learn that our app hasn’t met your expectations. We’re all about providing as many free features as we can. You can swipe, match, and chat without any cost! Please note that Premium allows us to keep improving and supporting Surge. Interested in trying our Premium features for free? Hit our admin up!

I never receive notifications from this app even though I have them turned on in my settings. Rather annoying as I only become aware of messages hours or days after. App can be a bit slow, but apart from that, everything else is good. Just fix the notifications, it's only costing you if your users are using the app less and less since you're not notifying them to come back or of any updates and messages.
