Terrible customer service and account terminated with no explanation.

My account was terminated 3weeks after me joining. I did not do anything inappropriate nor did I violate any terms or conditions. I reached out to customer service for an explanation of the alleged accusations and their response was they can’t tell me anything about my account due to privacy reason... Show more

TERRIBLE APP.

I’ve had BLK for a few years now with no issues, and all of a sudden BLK decides to disable my account. So I email customer service and there are supposed to get back to you with in 48 hours ( which is a lie I waited almost a week for a response!) they first responded that they would take this to...

Needs to go into detail on dating preference/sexual orientation

I’ve only used BLK all of two weeks. Not very many quality selections on here from my opinion. App can be seen as the black tinder. Plenty of people leave the profile section or complain about dating.

What’s really annoying is I have a preference I am looking for. BLK was sending men my w... Show more

Strategy Proves It’s a Waste Of Time

So I’ve had BLK on many different occasions over the years and I have very limited experiences actually connecting with someone. I’ve tried to reduce BLK down to a formula just to see if it was my poor decision making on swiping or if it was BLK just being over populated with profiles. I deleted... Show more

Mediocre is the Word of the Day

BLK is mediocre at best. While the layout of BLK is okay, there are some things that would really improve it. For example, one small thing is having the text wrap around when someone writes their education and occupation in, so you can see the full text they’ve written. Another small thing is mak... Show more

It could use some improvements

I want to start off with my absolutely love the fact that BLK exists. I recently moved to a majority white area and dating hasn’t been the easiest for me. BLK is nice but compared to the other dating apps, it’s a little lackluster. Other dating apps give you the choice to be specific with what yo... Show more

Pretty awful.

I will attempt to update if my experience changes; however, to this point, my experience has been pretty awful. It’s the same thing over and over. Hey, you’re so pretty - immediate red flag, meet me on Google hangouts, send your number, send a picture, all digital ways to steal info, I’m so lonel... Show more

Would Not Recommend

Let me first start by saying , I’ve never paid for a dating app subscription. I joined this app because I thought it would be different, so I chose to bite the billet and pay $20 for a ONE MONTH subscription. Within 24 hours I was regretful. The only benefits you get with a paid subscription is th... Show more

Shutdown my account for unknown reasons

Signed up and seen BLK looked nice even signed up for the 14 day trial which I paid for and After 4 days my account was closed and couldn’t use BLK . I didn’t message anyone. ,Didn’t report anyone page or anything for that matter. Now I did take my photo down within those 4 days. Just wanted to br... Show more

Ok...at best. Your preferences don't matter.

I was attracted to BLK because of its focus on Black singles - great! I set up my account which was easy. I set my preferences, which as also easy, although I do wish there were more options. I quickly gained several match requests (easily 100+ daily), but they were all SCRUBS. I prefer a man who ... Show more

It’s Ok but Could Def Be Better

I like BLK dynamic I do there are some Kinks tho, I wonder could u guys come up with like a check mark to verify authenticity of it being the person in the pictures like on Badoo. Second bro or sis whoever is behind this brilliant apps creation I’ve been waiting for this as a dating black man sea... Show more

Decent app- not worth paying for though

I love the idea of getting to see a great pool of black man and supporting this business but it needs some serious upgrades. As a user who paid for elite access I feel there show be more “elite” or even “premium” features. I paid for 3 months and only get 1 boost a month? Plus, BLK must not recogn... Show more

Not what it’s cut out to be

I was on BLK and subscribed to be an Elite member. It has some good perks but when it comes to the distance there is an issue where you cannot select a distance preference. They have one out there. But isn’t working. Which isn’t helpful and it makes it not enjoyable when you know you don’t want to... Show more

Add “casual dating” option; Good in theory

Add a casual dating or just dating option in addition to exclusive dating. Exclusive dating and in a relationship are interchangeable to most people. Dating isn’t exclusive. But I like the new options.

I really like BLK . I like the people on it and I feel like the amount of swipes is appro... Show more

I’m only 19 , BLK is the 2nd loml

As you the title says I’m only 19 , summer after freshman year in college my best friend and I got into BLK for fun . Just to see who was on there locally , see who we could pull and just to talk to strangers out of boredom. Hers didn’t go so well because of a false report but me ? Let me tell you... Show more

Could be better

Hey so far liking BLK but could be better. Allow people’s likes’ count to go down when they found a match hitting “yeah” or “nah”. Also I’ve found a few minor things that could add to the layout and navigation of the site. For instance being able to undo an accident swipe (left or right). Changing... Show more

Has Potential

I subscribed to the Premium account for three months thinking that was the top tier service that will give me the ability to see Likes. I then realized that it was not...because I couldn't see my Likes. I saw an ad for an Elite membership and tried to subscribe (willing to pay the up-charge) and co... Show more

I met my life partner on this app

What more can I say, I was able to have interesting conversations with individuals I would likely never have encountered irl. I met the love of my life and ultimately deleted BLK . Feedback I got from men though, was that apparently they’ve been having a tough time with discerning if a person was o... Show more

Great app but...

I initially enjoyed BLK but over time I began to see issues with it that made me delete BLK ..

Issues:
1. Fake profiles. There were either fake profiles with the usual scam bios.

2. Too many women on there seemed to be trying to market their modeling career for attention on Instag... Show more

Where’s the support team?

Recently I made an account cuz I thought BLK seemed pretty cool and off rip it started lagging very badly and loading really slow I had to make the account like 4 times then when I finally got to make it they messed up my age so it was up a yea and I see that’s a common mistake because there was a...

This trash is a joke

I heard about this from an 18 yr old friend in army and we go to college together during our training he told me about an app that you meet people on I said I needed to see somebody for once I got BLK started like usual learned swipe mess in a minute. I look at the photos and just see empty bios b... Show more

Blk App

Initially, i really liked BLK , so much so that I turned a few friends on to it, but the problem I have with BLK is that it holds you hostage to logging in using a Facebook account when I used my phone number to establish the account. I really don’t do Facebook at all!!! Additionally, the config... Show more

App randomly crashing!! Please fix

If I could upload a video off all the issue I am having with BLK and none of the updates have fixed this issue so it’s apparent that you all must not know it’s a problem. BLK keeps logging me out and won’t let me log back in. It crashes randomly, wont let me reply to messages. If I try using the ... Show more

Suddenly can’t log in

I’ve had my account for some months now, and at first I was getting a lot of interaction but eventually it died down and then then I started seeing the same faces over and over again even though I swiped left in them before. And the people I have matched with usually can’t hold a conversation for l... Show more

An exercise app to ensure thumb fitness!

BLK has potential. It’s easy to use and I have right swiped a number of women, whom I found cute. However, it has gotten me nowhere. And I’m a cute dude. BLK relies to much of physical attraction. Do you know how many women I have dated, in which I wasn’t the type they typically go for? More than... Show more

App Suggestions

The idea of BLK is awesome but there are a few kinks I believe would assist in making BLK better. First, it should truly be an app for black people to meet and mingle. I’ve several individuals on the that aren’t black (could be outside of the developers control). Second, there should be emphasis ... Show more

Needs Sooo Much Work

Downloaded BLK a few weeks ago and it’s so glitchy. The notification that you received a message works fine but when you click on it you don’t see a new message. You literally have to exit out the completely and try again. Also, if I swiped left on someone already WHY am I seeing them AGAIN?? Majo... Show more

Off to a good start

After using BLK for a short while there are a few areas that need to be addressed. First off I love the idea behind BLK. It’s great to be on an app where you know that everyone is looking for black love. One of the most frustrating things I’ve noticed is that there are no locations only distances... Show more

It Has Potential, But Certainly Needs Work

I know there’s a maximum of characters but there should be a minimum as well. At least 75% of the bios here are nothing more than some social media telling you to contact them outside of BLK or a random quote. It’s nice to see how far away people are but there should be sliders in the options to l... Show more

Good start— my suggestions

Okay coming from a black woman who is only interested in black men... this is BLK I have been WAITING for! I have wanted an app like this for the longest. So for that I appreciate you so much, because I only find my men attractive so it’s good to see my Kings on here with me....... now as far as e... Show more

Give it a try!

I don’t usually write reviews but I wanted to share my experience with BLK ! I joined this app sometime the beginning of this year after being recommended through a friend that met her GF through this app. And believe me when I say I couldn’t have been any happier to have joined. I typically woul... Show more

App is mediocre at best

I’ve dated a number of women in my life now at 24. So I would consider myself to have a worthy amount of experience when it comes to that of the opposite sex, I’ve also encountered women who wouldn’t necessarily go for a guy such as myself, but have won them over in the end. Not for my looks, I’ve ... Show more

Under new management?

BLK has done a complete 180 in the best possible way. First the GUI was updated, giving it a much cleaner look. Next, the underlying engine seems to have been modified, it operates much smoother. Lastly, premium features were added. I’m glad things happen in the order that they did. With the fresh... Show more

Love this site

I definitely recommend this website! So when I first got onto this website I didn’t know anything about it and I was thinking to myself “ aww great it’s a bunch of weirdos “ yes there were but it’s also some down to earth people on here as well . That’s how I found my boyfriend ED . We have been ... Show more

Doesn’t to end service without giving it a chance. Have problem. 90% of matches are 4-6-7 hundred miles away. Useless. Please contact me.

90% of choices are 5-6-7 hundred miles away. Cannot adjust. Asking for help before having to cancel. Please respond.

Honestly, I prefer BlackGentry. It’s similar to BLK but more features and more quality people.

I have canceled my subscription and the app tried to charge my card anyway. I am not interested in this site any longer and would like to not be charged in the future.
