Upward Reviews

I never write reviews, but I am so upset by Upward. I got Upward a few days ago, like today is the 4th day. Everything was great and I was really enjoying the experience with it. Had good matches and actually had guys texting and interacting which was not the case on the first app I tried. So I w... Show more as in the middle of a conversation with a guy and my phone went to sleep and when I went to check my messages again my app logged out. I went to log back in and it’s saying my account is disabled! I have not violated any community standards, my pics and profile was all appropriate. Even if something was wrong Upward doesn’t give you any warning and there is no response from customer service. There is no phone number and no reply’s come from the emails. I have sent many emails now because I paid money for Upward and I have not done anything wrong so I would like to know why I cannot access my account. This is supposed to be for Christians but that seems really shady! I’m really disappointed especially since I had a great first day and 1/2. I would have given a 5 star if this was corrected but I’ve read another review where this happened and this app would not give a reason and banned him permanently. So I am assuming that will happen to me, which is not fair especially not even giving a reason why you’re banned. 😠

So I made an account and I was using it for first time for 15 minutes, with in trying to get my account set up it all of A sudden it logs me out right when I was adjusting the distance. Was it because I was a Christian creator on tiktok or did someone report me as a spam account because I wasn’t. I... Show more dk why it said it was disabled because I didnt violate and guidelines. And i know im not the only one who got there account disabled for no reason. And when it says it was disabled it doesn’t say why. And again I would never do anything that would violate the terms and conditions. Please fix this bug. Never using Upward again, oh wait I cant always because I’m banned for no reason.

Update: after reading so many of the reviews,
Of people saying that there is so many people that are spam accounts and fake accounts there was probably someone that reported my account thinking it was fake. Also please consider taking the distance off profiles because when someone sees that it makes it easy for some to stalk people. And what do I take out of this, maby GOD did not want me on Upward, so thank you for deleting it because honestly I would of probably deleted it the next day. Be carful and to say this was my first time using a dating and and never will again.

So I gave Upward a try for a year after seeing it advertised on Snapchat. As a Christian and someone who has been in the online dating business for awhile, I was excited trying this app as it was advertised as “A Christian Dating Website.” Well not only I met my toxic ex on here and wasted 8 mont... Show more hs of my life thinking he was the one turns out he had a dark past and an addiction, I also wasted more time coming back on here for another few months getting my time wasted by “Christian Men” who only wanted to have sex with me, don’t reply back, and just take advantage of me because they know I’m a good woman. this app, what I have experienced as a user this whole year is not Christian like and you guys should consider doing background checks, verify the user is who they say they are, and should NOT have a casual selection as that is very hypocritical and is against Christian beliefs. I don’t even want to start on how my matches are too far out from me and I have gave you guys money after money and remained loyal the whole year thinking I was going to find someone. I even had been a loyal customer to the point I trusted you guy to the point when I deleted my account a few times I came back, never again Upward is garbage and has been thrown together last minute I bet like las minute studying for a finals, yuck 🤢

I wanted to like Upward because dating as a Christian woman in your late twenties is hard y’all. Unfortunately, Upward does not do it for me. I bought the premium version thinking it would have more features and save me time, but all of the important filters for me (distance, height, education) a... Show more ren’t options! Upward shows you people who are 150 miles away without letting you filter down the distance. How is that practically supposed to work? Also I don’t care who thinks it’s shallow, height is incredibly important! I’m 5’11” and it is uncomfortable for me to date someone who is shorter than me, and it’s uncomfortable for them too! If God wanted me to marry a short man, he would have made me a short woman! I put my height in my bio so that men can know how tall I am, but this really should be a filter because no one needs to waste their time flipping through profiles of people they are physically incompatible with or guessing how tall they are. Finally, being able to filter for education is also incredibly important! This goes back to basic compatibility, people with similar education levels are more compatible. Yes it’s possible to guess someone’s intelligence from their profile, but please save us time and improve your app by making this a filter. Why does Upward have such high ratings? Who is this even working for???

I love you but I hate you, no distance filter = all my time and efforts for a long distance relationship. I guess the least i could do is pray for them. Oh, and I cant even go back if i swiped left on accident? So what do I do? Restart my account?! And if it’s telling me someone likes me, hook a bo... Show more ther up?! & put that person in my list of swipes... Or tell me who it is at least. I have faith in the dark for Jesus not your dating app. Lol add super likes maybe? Instant like and people will immediately be aware of who it is? And to go back on swipes should be a must! I feel like i lost the love of my life. She couldve been someone that liked me! This bothers me a lot. Also please add a filter of which denomination we prefer. If this werent an issue, we all wouldnt be attending different churches lol. PERSON AUTHENTICATOR! Please! For all the fake catfish accounts! The idea of your app. Is great, but seriously, no offense... it clearly wasnt thought through. Let’s be real... It reminds me of a college assignment i held off till last minute and just did ENOUGH to pass. So please, as a teacher... take this assignment back! And bring me back your best! Especially during quarantine season. I’d like to go out soon, and meet a wonderful Proverbs lady to intertwine my soul with. Seriously hurry up my whole family’s asking when I’m gonna get married. Hahaha Thanks FTH <3

I’ve met some people solid Christians on Upward, even if most of that are fairly distant from me geographically speaking. However, there’s a couple of key annoyances. First, the number of people who have already liked me never drops, and I can (and have) swiped in excess of 400 people on one sitti... Show more ng. Still 99+. Second (and this combines with the first one), it will repeatedly (and randomly) revert to my general geographic area, showing me the same faces I have seen countless times. If I swiped away on someone, I generally did that with intent. I don’t want to have to swipe past everyone again, and again, and again so that I can finally encounter those people who purportedly already liked me. Finally, excessive notifications (“WWJD? Prolly start swiping for singles” - yeah ... probably not. Ditch that notification). I appreciate it for what it is. Technically speaking, I’m not very impressed. Subscriptions are overly expensive, and (unlike Hinge) undos are behind a paywall. Could be worse, but could certainly be better. Edit: I bit the bullet and got a subscription, just to confirm my suspicions. The majority of the people who had already “liked” me were people that I recognized as having swiped away. App is poorly developed.

Edit: advertisements for alcohol now.

I’ve been on Upward less than a day. I’ll come back later to write an updated review. So , far, however, it looks like all of the negative reviews are correct, unfortunately. Upward is full of bots and shady profiles. In less than 24 hours I’ve had three matches. One was obviously a bot, one I ha... Show more ven’t reached out to yet, and one asked me to meet almost immediately (which is fine), but he insisted that I go to his place for the first meeting and unmatched when I suggested a public meeting first. I think that was a real person but I got a very bad vibe out of it, like there may have been something worse going on there that could seriously jeopardize someone’s safety. Be very cautious when using Upward, even more so than you would any of the rest of them. I think I’ve figured out how to spot these fake profiles (their “faith” section is very vague, for one), so we’ll see.

That said, as a Christian/Conservative in a Leftist city, it’s a nightmare trying to find a match on the mainstream dating apps like Bumble, Hinge, etc. I swipe right maybe 1 out of 500 times because most of the people on those apps are the Atheist/Liberal types or they are looking for hookups and polyamory. I’ll try Upward out a little while longer, but am very disappointed. They just need to add a way to verify profiles.

I’m torn on Upward because on one hand it’s nice because it’s algorithm isn’t absolute garbage like tinder or bumble. Upward is supposed to have Christian singles, which I see for the most part. My problems arise when I can’t find a girl within 200 miles of myself. Every other dating app gives yo... Show more u the ability to limit the distance at which you see other singles along with other filters. However this app only allows you to use the age filter. They just don’t have it, you don’t even have to upgrade to use it. Also, I have some likes, I’ve only come across 2 of them over the course of weeks. Overall, my biggest issue with this service is the fact there is no distance filter. I know this app is a smaller app, but I don’t even want to see a girl if she is more than 30 miles away. I know this is harsh, but I and many other people just don’t really care for a long distance relationship. I’m definitely not hating on Upward , i like Upward , I just want more options. This review is really just for the developers. Hope you guys are working, or will work, on these issues. Thanks for your time if you read this.

The problem with Upward is the lack of a distance filter. You see how far away they are when you click on the profile, but it’s cumbersome to click on the profile every single time you see someone attractive. Their location should be one of the first things you see, and should be on the main card.... Show more Additionally, there’s a problem with age as well, at least for me, being an 18 year old. The smallest age gap I can have is 18-24. That’s simply no good, because a vast majority of people 18 year olds do not want someone that much older than them. A smaller age gap would be much better for people who are younger. Upward also gives less information about the person than other apps like Hinge. In some other apps, it shows their height, political beliefs, and a few things they’re into. Upward has no such thing. Other than that, Upward is great. Even as a non attractive male, I was able to get 7 likes in a short period of time, and even matched with 3 of them. The people on Upward are much better people than the ones on Tinder. You get the feeling that they’re on Upward for an actual relationship, and not just a hookup.

I think Upward interface is simple and to the point which I love, I’m also someone who actually pays for “Elite”. One of the worst features is lack of location filter. It’s very frustrating when you’re reading a profile and you’re thinking “oh she seems like my type I would love to talk to her” on... Show more ly to find out that he’s 100+ miles away and you’re coming across way too many profiles of individuals who live 50+ miles away. This also leads to another issue because I’m noticing I’m spending more time than I would want to on Upward because I come across maybe 5 profiles out of 20 who actually live in my area (I live in a metropolitan area). So outside of that I also wish there was a verification process like a photo to ensure you’re who you say you are. With that being said I think the developers are on to something great however after my current subscription end I’m not 100% sure I’m going to renew it because there’s another Christian dating app that apparently has a photo verification and location filter. I may just try it out after I’m done here however if you’re trying this app for the first time I think you’ll enjoy it just keep in mind of the lack of location filter.

Okay as a woman using Upward I guess there are some positives and negatives. I tried Upward for exactly 2 days and at first it was fun and exciting seeing the likes and watching them add up but I guess it depends on what kind of person you are. I’m the type where if I already know someone likes m... Show more e I’m more willing to invest time into that, but I couldn’t see anyone who liked me and that became frustrating after the first couple days when you have like 100+ likes but barely any matches. Lol. It’s not even that I swipe left on someone because they are unattractive but you just don’t know who would be into you and I guess that’s something they could consider fixing. I also agree with another reviewer in that when you do get matches, many people ghost after…due to browsing and “shopping” to see more matches. In this way I feel as though it’s a bit tricky to truly find someone who isn’t consistently browsing for more matches. Or the person is just not taking it seriously. It’s like it becomes a habit that many can’t stop and no true matches follow through to go on into anything deeper beyond “How are you?” I do believe there are some real people on there looking for something but personally it’s too hard to find them and I would rather let God do his work without me trying to force it. It’s not for everyone, but when it works (IF IT WORKS) it can really lead to great things I guess.

It’s a great app but could better Ive several issues regarding my subscriptions I’ve paid for not reflecting in Upward . Such as my elite membership that I purchased 2 maybe 3 different times this month as well as the several premium memberships none of which bare giving me access to those level fe... Show more atures. I’ve messaged him them several times asking if they could fix that or refund my money and they never email me back. I emailed them Friday and they said they would get back with me and never did, I even wrote a review yesterday and it didn’t get posted. 2. A i had to create a new account after my phone number changed because of their system signing me out and making me type in my number which had been changed so it made me create a new account. So that may be part of the issue. So this app needs a different sign in method because folks change their numbers all the time and shouldn’t have to create a new account or not be able to access features because they worried about fraud. It’s the same IP address and name on the account and debit cards it’s not fraud I’d like the money back I’ve spent on both accounts this month especially seeing as though my old account I lost access to it 2 days after I paid the elite membership and the premium. How can this be fixed or I’ll just delete my account and tell my friends not to join here.

I really want to love Upward as the interface is really good and I’ve had some decent conversations with some girls on it. But Upward REALLY needs some sort of user verification. The last match I got seemed really great at first. I gave her my number so we could talk easier. We seemed to have a l... Show more ot in common and our conversation was really nice and everything seemed normal; at least, it did at first. All of a sudden, she sent me a completely unsolicited inappropriate photo of herself and later on, I got a phone call from her number, but it was a male voice on the other end of the call and he claimed he was her father and that his daughter is only 16 years old and that he was going to the police and would file criminal charges against me for child porn and solicitation of a minor. I now know it was a scam and the girl I thought I was talking to probably never existed and this person was just trying to scare me into sending money to avoid getting into some serious trouble. This really freaked me out, but luckily I just blocked the number and nothing more came from this horrible situation. But this was still an absolutely terrible situation and there really should be some sort of user verification to avoid this sort of thing. Please just fix this problem before someone really gets hurt and Upward would be sooo much better.

It would be great if FTH took a few more hints from other dating apps. Not only should distance filters be a bit better, but if someone likes you, Upward should display them first so you can easily see who likes you and if you’re interested. Better that than occasionally seeing that someone has li... Show more ked you but then swiping and swiping and never getting a match. Having a way to backtrack to the last person after an accidental swipe left would be super nice too. I love the concept because my faith is super important to me and I wouldn’t want to date someone who wasn’t a christian, but the whole app just feels a little clunky and hard to actually find matches on.

Update: reducing it from 3 stars to 2 stars after Upward lost a match I had with the same girl twice in a row in a period of about fifteen minutes. Unbelievable. If Upward can’t even remember who matched with whom, what’s even the point?

Update 2: dropping to 1 star after it did it a third time with the SAME girl in the course of another ten minutes. Y’all need to seriously work on your UI; it’s garbage

I’ve used Upward for about half an hour, and for an app that’s 2 weeks old, I’m pretty impressed. Some things to consider though: First, because it’s a new app, there’s not a whole lot of profiles to swipe on, for me anyways. I live in a developing, midsize, college town in a semi rural area. I ha... Show more d 4 or 5 profiles within 10 miles away and 6 or 7 in the nearest big city an hour away. After that I started getting a bunch of profiles 100+ miles away. Second, a distance filter would be nice. I could see people in my area and not see people I’d never interact with in person. I’ll update my review once I use Upward longer and hopefully get at least one match.

Update: I’ve used Upward for about a year and have had mixed results. Nice to see that they’ve added a likes screen and that the community has grown. On the other hand, I’ve only had 3 or 4 genuine conversations with my matches and have been unmatched/ghosted a lot, but that’s what happens on apps and what you get when you have a generation of very entitled women. Would be nice to have read receipts so I can tell if my match has seen my message. Overall Upward works really well and maybe you’ll have better luck than me.

It’s a great platform, great idea, the features that they have in the profile are excellent, concise to the point. Love that they have a bio and a spot to share about faith.
That’s all good.
Here’s the bad:

Or like, here’s where you should be in maturity, emotional Development to function well on here. The people who occupy the space on Upward, it’s rough. Like, just because it’s Christians doesn’t mean standards fly out the door… I nearly want to start a business in helping people create bios and choose photos. Those who have good profiles, don’t actually participate, it feels like there’s just good profiles you match with to keep you going. Just disheartening. Not Upward creators fault. They’ve done wonderful advertising attractive men on Upward to grab attractive women… but maybe they can market this app in all areas?
It almost feels like, “I’m Christian that should be good enough to grab your interest.”

I downloaded this during quarantine. Things ive noticed you can’t see who likes you unless you match. I wish there was a way to see who liked me. There may be people i skipped over or never saw there. I have matches but people barely message on there. So its a little discouraging maybe offer a vide... Show more o chat feature. Also i noticed that there are people on there that aren’t even Christian. It’s literally a Christian dating app. People are “ spiritual “ that don’t even consider themselves Christian... that’s weird to me. I would think on a Christian Dating app that people are actually doing on there to date not be casual. I’ve noticed some people are on there looking to get there freak on... like go on tinder or something. Sorry I’m sure the creators of Upward have great intentions. I wish there was a way to be selective on Upward i never know where people i match with are from. I’m african american and a women and barely see any men that are black. I don’t discriminate i love em all... but it would be nice to be shown some people like me. Most of the people i see are hunters, fishermen etc😭i love jesus but man im getting discouraged with who i see. To sum all that up Can there be a paid maybe 2.99 feature to see who liked you😫?please

If you’re the kind of guy who’s struggling to get attention on other apps like Tinder or Bumble and you’re also a Christian, this one might be a little better for you. I find that the women on Upward tend to be less entitled and don’t have such high standards, basically if you’re decently attracti... Show more ve, it’s not hard to find someone who genuinely wants to talk to you and doesn’t have 40 other guys messaging them. However, the main flaw that Upward has is the lack of any kind of distance filter, it’s not a huge problem because it shows people’s distance whenever you view their profile, but it’s annoying because after using Upward for a little while, like 3/4 of the people it shows are over 60 miles away. Another thing I like about Upward is that it seems like you don’t have to swipe for that long for it to show you someone who’s liked your profile, however that may have changed in the most recent update which has adopted a Tinder style likes page which you need a subscription to see, and is actually more expensive than Tinder. So overall Upward is pretty good but it needs a location filter(that you don’t have to pay for because on some apps you do) and just more users overall.

I downloaded Upward after looking at other online dating options. I honestly didn’t want to spend money on a subscription and I was hoping to find something for Christians. While I found there were a lot of guys on Upward who were saying they were Christian without true faith and trust in Christ,... Show more I did actually chat with a handful of guys who seemed serious about their faith. When I started talking to my now-husband, we connected immediately and shared phone numbers. Two weeks later, we met in person. 4 months after that, he asked me to marry him! We have now been married for over a year and have a baby girl. We are grateful and feel so blessed that God used Upward to bring us together.
About Upward itself- I liked that it was simple, easy to use, and didn’t have especially lengthy bios. You only chatted with people who were also interested in you and it felt like you could pretty quickly and easily get a sense for if it could go somewhere with that person.
It worked for me, so I definitely have to recommend! ☺️

I usually don’t write reviews but Upward is the exception! I had tried different apps hoping to find my “one” to no avail. I had just about given up hope when I came across Upward. I decided to give it another shot as this was a Christian app and I had never been on one before. Not even a week in... Show more I matched with this guy an hour away from me. We hit it off immediately and facetimed almost every day. He told me his cousin convinced him to get Upward as he bad never tried online dating before. (Thank goodness he did!) On our first date we both had that “God moment” where a voice in our heads both told us “they’re the one” loud and clear. We continued dating and, a few months later, he proposed! Fast forward to almost a year from when we first met: we said “I do” in my childhood church. We have no doubt that God used Upward to bring us together. We have been married for almost 6 months now and continue to have a blast every day. He is truly my best friend and I cannot thank the Lord or this app enough for sending me the man of my dreams! We are so grateful for you and cannot wait to continue our journey together!

I’m bugged by the fact that you can do everything but change your location preferences. Everyone I come across is over a hundred miles away & there’s nothing I can do to change that.

I’m tired of waiting for commitment from the other dating apps. Upward has my faith.

Scam. Be aware the profile you are liking may be completely fake. I'm not Christian and I never signed up for an account. But in the last 3 weeks I have received emails about "my account" confirming the account being created and then changes being made to certain criteria in a profile they set up wi... Show more th my name and email address. I tried to contact customer service to have the account removed but the customer service address in their emails is undeliverable (Host unknown / Host not found). No wonder they prominently advertise "Upward does not conduct criminal background checks on it's members. Please take proper safety precautions." They are the ones who may be conducting criminal activity by creating profiles based on information publicly available and then adding whatever information they think will interest their members.

I signed up and paid $14.99 for monthly access and I did not get any access. I feel they just stole my money!!!

I want my money back after 3 days. Distance filter set at 20 miles away max. All is see are profiles 2500-4000 miles away.

This Upward app is a complete nightmare and is abuse against good Godly women looking for something real. Many of my first matches it went nowhere. There was rudeness, ghosting and strange men who are into cryptocurrency. One guy even tried to sell it to me that I should get into that. Was so disgus... Show more ted by that because that is not how a relationship should start based on financial stuff. The next guy we talked only for a bit thought there was good chemistry he had a too perfect profile picture now when I think of it and asked me to go on Google chat with him so I did. When I asked him to send me a video of himself he disappeared and never texted me again. Big red flag. If he was genuine ladies he would be willing to send you a video of him. He was wanting sexy pics of me right from the beginning and this is supposedly a “Christian guy.” Another guy didn’t even know his age and came on very aggressive and combative with me from the start. I complained to Upward support people who said they would look into his account. Honestly not good enough. Then this last guy his a complete joke and six major long texts messages at a time but would not give me hardly any time to respond and refused to do any video call. Said that any channel of communication was good. Not if it is long distance video call is essential but not to him. I smell a fraudster and scammer. The guy was totally not normal. His English or writing was so broken up for someone who is supposedly well put together. He wanted me to come see him without ever having video called. Didn’t ask for money but definitely playing around. Girls do not go on Upward and it is time for me delete my account on there.

This app is a scammer’s playground. The first time I used the app I connected with a man named Jeffrey. He was an engineer working in Turkey. He wanted to chat offline so we moved to Google Hangout. We seem to make a really good connection but when I ask the same questions at different times the ans... Show more wers are always different.

I am an older woman but not an old fool! I tried again and connected with someone else. We chatted for several weeks then he told me he was being deployed to Yemen. I recently found out that the name and pictures he was using belonged to someone else. I’m so angry that people just take advantage of each other in such a callous manner. UPWARD is a scammer’s playground. Don’t use this site!!!!

For your first 15-20 swipes you get people within a logical area. After that, good luck finding someone who’s even in the same state. Why are you showing me people who live in Kentucky when I live in South Carolina? Oh right.. because it’s not really about helping people find a God-centered relation... Show more ship. It’s about money. They push you towards buying their subscription because you will NEVER come across the people who ‘liked’ you without one. Also, $30 for a month? That is outrageously expensive. Completely deters you from even considering paying for it.

I’ll make this as simple as positive: - full of fake profiles, bots, catfishes, and scammers looking to prey on innocent Christian women. - non Christian men looking to masquerade as Christian. And a horde of ex cons - people 150+ miles away - a casual option for “what you’re looking for”, whic...

Upward is not a great site. I once again tried this app , full of let downs from previous apps.. i got lots of likes quickly after signup and being new..

Show more hey came.. i smell a scam and bot ran site .

I spent about a week on this site. I received quite a few responses but noticed several common themes- Seems majority of the men are civil engineers, are "God Fearing", speak w poor grammar, and I caught several profiles w the exact same phrases, "My wife cheated on me, I know Shit happens, but...".... Show more I also found pics of same person under different names, ages. I had a few men tell me that they weren't the age their profile said. I found several profiles w odd first names, and the same ones at that. I also was asked the same questions. "what are you looking for, how is this site treating you?". I finally did my own research and asked for the man's personal contact number. Interestingly enough, the reverse phone number search revealed a nonexistent number, or the number was listed as another person. So, I HIGHLY suspect most of these profiles are fake, made by scammers, which is very very dangerous, esp to us women. I had several men ask me to speak to them on telegraph, skype, google chat. Also suspect, is the professional pictures posted, the perfect looking couples in the "success stories"and the amazingly attractive men that say they can't find love... that's a joke. Summary- I cancelled my membership ASAP and sent in several reports of fake profiles. Single women- I wouldn't bother w this one.... which is too bad, considering we are being taken advantage of, as Christian women. Be safe out there!!!

Had 99 likes the first day. Then, the scamming starts. Had 3 guys ask me to chat off of the app. One asked me for money, the others had profiles under different names, religious denominations and even ages. Then I downgraded my “membership” and could no longer see new people who liked me?? What a sc... Show more am and waste of money.

Horrible app. I’ve only had scammers reply. They tell me how beautiful I am, asking about my day, where I live, what 3 words best describe me etc. They avoid answering any question I might ask.

He doesn’t say “with a question”, he says “with question” So many of these guys have grammar slip ups that give them away. I report every profile that does this. I’m on Bumble and haven’t had this problem. The scammers have found a way in to scam on upward and nothing is being done to stop it.

Please listen to the countless other people and avoid this site. They are not interested in matching Christians it’s a complete scam. Almost all of the profiles are fake. There are lots of profiles of Good looking American men who chat in completely broken English . When I ask them to video chat Eve... Show more ry sing one of them Ghost me. Upward could clearly takle this issue by having users verify their identity like Bumble does.

I thought I was enjoying the app at first. Unfortunately, they only allow you to signin via phone number. My phone number changed and their support contact is the worst...they never get back to you. I created a new profile with my new number since my old one wouldn't even be able to receive a verifi... Show more cation code. My account was disabled in three days. I'm not sure if it was the change to a new profile, having gone on a trip and my location changed, or a salty man that just couldn't handle me not selecting him (in a very polite way)...but I found some matches I really liked. Now I can't access them and nobody will get back to me to resolve the issue. I'd absolutely not pay for a subscription as there is no number to call and they don't respond to their emails at all. Heartbreaking and horrible service. I'm thoroughly disappointed. I'd change my review in a heartbeat if they would just respond and resolve the issue for me.

I been scammed by someone who called himself Jeffrey (Bed). Who posing himself as a captain of the yacht. The app needs customer verification

Everyone I see is well over 300 miles away. I live in a popular suburb about 30 miles outside a big city. I will not subscribe again.

Don't use this app! There are so many fake men on this it is unbelievable. It was nice at first seeing how many "likes" I received. The first thing I noticed was that the majority of the men are Catholic which seemed a little odd but not a problem. I set up my profile to be picks close to me but ...

Beyond being disappointed in this CHRISTIAN Dating App, I am even more disappointed in the human race. Don't use this app either free or with the fee! 8/5/2022

It's a scam! They don't show you anything different than any other website, and as soon as I paid, they disabled my account for no reason! No recourse, and no contact. They do not respond. DO NOT GIVE THEM YOUR MONEY!

App ok, but are there any real guys on here, they all want you to switch to another site to talk. Funny how you all say you love God while trying to screw someone over. I would say be careful, God don’t like ugly and He will take up the battle.

This app is full of scammers. 90% of the men I chatted with were about to deploy and will then ask for money, have some high security job that’s remote and can’t FaceTime, ask you to invest in cryptocurrency.

Absolute SCAM site. Wayyyyy too easy for people to use this site to hide behind religion for bad intentions...money, sexting etc. Only used for 2 days and had 3 horrible experiences. Stay away if you are serious about making a connection or be very very cautious ⚠️

Beware!!! This app is a scam. Been here for a whole month, and I'm shutting down my account. I'm a decent guy with a lot to offer, but every right swipe I made is ghosted.

This Upward app needs to be shut down and reported to the authorities for scamming the public. I wouldn't be surprised if they are conspirators to the design of how crooks operate on their platform.

I would recommend starting on the least expensive subscription rate as they don't do refund regardless of how disappointed or dissatisfied you are. Few things I've noticed: the app only tells you the location of the person in miles so you'll end up asking where they are from, there are many question...

Scam,scam ,scam no filter for distance. Guys in here don’t want to stay on the app for a longer conversation, they want to have your phone number right away. Most of them are in the military . Both parents dead, no siblings. Widowed, single parents with kids , got cheated and they traumatized by the... Show more ir wife , They are by themselves. They want to know first question your job title if you have a big house or apt. I guess scammers want to figure it out if you wealthy or how much do you make . Also there is a guy who is really handsome with 3 different profiles. By mistake he reply twice and by mistake I warned him up . One of his profiles names is Michael Donald he said he is a flight attendant but from his story he said he’s a ….. well I’m pasted what he wrote me. I Work as a secret agent for the DEA (drug enforcement administration) working as a flight attendant isn't my main job It was just to use that to cover up only my two boss knows about this .

Lol so he can’t show his identity. I believe they don’t want to see this type of stories being on the app because they might feel it can be supervised or tracked. Ladies Be Be careful with this app don’t fall for it fake profiles .

Upward is definitely a scam based out of Nigeria. Everybody is in the US army. Had one guy telling me he’s fighting war in Ukraine. Another one I spoke to was a Caucasian from New Jersey, but once I spoke to him over phone, he sounded like an African. Everybody claim that their wife died a year ago,... Show more and they’re ready for a new relationship. SMH!! Finally, as the stories remained the same I had to ask…”You’re in the US army too? … and your wife died as well?” This app is nonsense. Waste of time. That’s why you don’t get a response. It’s a scam. I’ll see if this even gets posted.

This app is fake. I believe it’s a Nigerian made site. Everybody is in the US army. They’re off in some country are returning to the US soon.

This app really needs a better versification system and a distance filter. Over 80% of the people that “like” me have fake photos and profiles. Be careful not to give your real number.

Nice app but need to somehow weed out scammer. I got matched up with two of the same type of scammers. I feel sorry if they run into a real vulnerable woman looking for true love

The one thing I noticed about this app is there are minors on here… gentleman be careful who you match with because there are 17 year old girls that are trying to get older men in trouble… that’s how parents get involved and the police.

Its needs a verification process I had talk to 2 different people that pretended to be someone else. I definitely would not use upward ever again!

I keep getting fake profile, since I started using the app, this people just want to text and when you want to move on for a phone call they be gone, random phone numbers that it’s for a business, I am leaving this fake web

I am a fit muscular man that has a heart of gold ( I have been considered handsome by a few). However, I can't believe some of the games that some play on this app. I was told women ,(this goes for us guys also). I guess, I will just keep trying!

I am starting to wonder who really owns this app. Is the owner a Nigerian scammer? 90% of the profiles are fakes! They are nothing but Nigerian scammers trying to lure women in. I wish everyone will turn these people in online. They are truly wasting people's time. A big scam!

I tried this app and within a week I'd met at least 7 "Civil Engineers." with foreign accents. There are so many bogus profiles on here! They steal pictures of Caucasians, African Americans, and Hispanic Americans and post fake profiles. They are all engineers who supervise a group of men or are Lo... Show more ng Shoremen or something like that. And, most of them are Catholic. This is fine, but it lets me know that these are mostly foreigners faking profiles. I know many Nigerians think many Americans are Catholics so that's what they claim. They might be doing this mostly to older women because they think we are desperate and vulnerable. One of the first questions I ask anyone I start conversing with is, "Do you have a foreign accent?" If they look like a duck, quack like a duck, and smell like a duck, IT'S A DUCK!

Never have I wasted so much time talking to fake people!!! 2 different guys for 2 months, both video chatted and called on the phone and after 2 months they both wanted money.

Bernard used whatsapp and Luke used Hangout. Beware never send money!!!

I have dealt with over 10 scammers on this dating site! They are all over. Dangerous site for women! You are not protecting any one on this site!!!!!

The scammiest app ever. Worse than secular. I think Christian’s are being targeted because scammers think they’re more likely to get money from us. It’s seems most of the guys are fake. Especially the really good looking ones. I never gave any money, but I got whacked with a military love scam ... Show more by a “marine”. Talking twice a day for a week. Then he was avoidant about phone calls or video. Huge red flag! The person actually called me from Africa confessing that this is what they do to support their families. I really started to like said marine. I reported it to the department of defense. I emailed this app twice With no response. Now I’m suspicious of everyone. Where are the jersey boys? Does everyone live in Brooklyn or do the Nigerians think that’s a hip place to live? apparently they don’t keep up on the news and subway bombings and shootings lately. 🤦‍♀️🤦‍♀️🤦‍♀️

Why does the distance filter not working. There are hundreds that have liked me, but they are hundreds and even thousands of miles away. What is the point??

Everytime I think I meet someone we will talk for awhile then the next day the guy will act like he doesn't remember our conversation and ask the same exact question. I also was talking to a guy I thought I liked untill he sent me another like same pictures but different name, age and location so I ...

Can’t see locations of woman and anyone I like or that send me like are 300+ miles away. I’m in search of a realistic relationship that doesn’t require me to travel by plan just to see my date. Terrible app and definitely has scammers as well trying to contact me off app

This app is a total scam. I cannot believe I paid money for it. Every profile is totally fake! Do not use this app!!!!!

Upward is a total scam.

Please be careful is a scam. Don't use this app don't use it and delete and block them block all .

Upward is the biggest scam ever. I have caught at least 5 catfish. DO NOT USE THIS APP.

I found out that many profiles are fake. How? Well…. I saw pictures of men looking like models that I remembered seeing it others dating sites so I asked them how much do you get paid for acting in this chat and suddenly their profile vanished and never saw it again. And so on … most of them were “... Show more widower”. When I was suspicious about a guy who was very handsome and asked him many questions and removed his mask and he deleted the profile. Using the name of God to trick people ? The law of cause and effect is real and this app will see the results of theirs actions. God is not a game.

I've been successful on here with several matches whom made initial contact. Also, there were 100's of likes. However, although I went forward in a reply message to a few men, they're true intentions turned out to be opposite of their profile. Most aren't really Christian males at all but rather soc... Show more ial catfish. These guys pretended to have interest in pursuing a relationship or dating scenario. Instead, I had one to send a penis picture after his request to chat via WhatsApp. Others insisted on an invite to the same instant messenger or an additional type. Their excuse was inability to communicate on Upward. More asked to exchange phone ☎️📱 numbers and email 📨 addresses in a week. A couple of them asked to borrow money 💰 💵. While the rest ghosted after greetings, a single conversation or being told not comfortable in exchanging contact information so soon. I believe there are actual potential mates to meet but you need to sift through many fakes and much dishonesty before this happens.

Just as I was trying to fill out my profile, I was suddenly locked oylut if my account. It was disabled for some reason. Then I read the other reviews on here. This app needs to be shut down. Stop using the term "Christian" for your ineptitude and scams.

Like everyone has said this site is full of scammers!!! Beware! Only 20-30% are legitimate.

He said he asked God for forgiveness but I believe there is a host of Nigerians doing this. If they ask you to go on What’s App, refuse to video call, give you a sad story about being a widow, their spouse being in a crash, pics with kids, pics with attractive people, copy things you said in your profile to make it seem like a match, ask you for anything - access to Netflix or anything at all, IT IS A SCAM! I’ve told these people my trust is not great with online bc I watch Catfish and already think they are fake. I even reported this to a police officer. Please know most of Upward are full of Nigerians using other people’s profiles who probably have no idea. Some people on here are real but most are not. Be careful. This app is probably internationally owned and even populates bots- they all ask the same exact questions. Beware if they say stuff like hello beautiful or fall in love too fast. I’m praying the Lord disrupts this site, shuts it down. It is fall of the devil’s imps who will face judgment one day for all the lies, deceit, and toying with people’s emotions. It is very sad for those who really are on here, paid, and seeking a Godly mate. Ask God for wisdom and discernment. He will give it to you! So sorry that this world has come to this.

While the person says opposite of what you documented. Then asked to pay see this and that, to speak with a scammer who is from New York ?? but is in Syria in military mission and need your money??? 5. It's all a game worth not paying a single cent.

Upward does not need to improve anything, the good answer is what I paid was not worth paying, and I hope no one goes to pay anything at upwards to see 6000 miles as your matches.

Yes, I'm having the same issue. All men are far away. There was a guy whom I chatted with and then I gave him my number to call me. He never called. Just kept on texting back through the chat. Plus, he only texted in the mornings and not in the evenings. He also lived 900 miles away but his profile ... Show more said that he can live "whenever his dream girl is". At first, I thought it was intriguing, but then it became weird by him not wanting to call me. He never asked for money or anything, but I was just kinda mad and reported him for a scam and the conversation disappeared. I kind of wanted to find him again and it seems like the app is showing me guys who live more than 2000 miles away from me. I don't know if I'm ever going to rematch with him. Another issue, there was another guy who immediately asked me to go to google hangouts and then he started saying that he is on a secret training program for CIA and he is looking for a wife, and he also said that he has a twin brother who is a spy in Somali for 5 years. It sounded stupid for me and I called him up on it. He then send me his Florida ID with his picture, his name and everything. But to me it is still a bunch of nonsense so I told him off. I just don't understand why the app does not allow you to search by the profiles name to see if you are able to find the profile and rematch. I am talking about the first guy. Unless he is a scam too by not wanting to call me.

Hello. Something is wrong with the algorithm. Most of the men are at least 100 miles away. I set my preferences for 30 miles. I understand showing possibilities 50 or maybe 60 miles away—but 100? 250? 3000??? Please advise. Thank you kindly.

2 out of 2 attempts and both are total scammers asking for gift cards and any excuse to get you to send it ASAP. One even asked me to pay for her monthly so she can keep her Netflix account. Garbage!

100% TOTAL SCAMMERS!!!

Upward is owned by Match Group. They support things against Christian beliefs like Homosexuality and Abortion. Their biggest push right now is Pro-Choice. I have done extensive research into their practices and found that they are just setting most people up to fail so that you'll keep using thei... Show more r platform. Best practice is to stay away from all their platforms like Match, OKCupid, Plenty Of Fish, Tinder, Hinge, and Upward. Oh and don't even try Bumble either, it was founded by a former Match employee and has the same ideals. These companies are far from Christian.

I'm extremely frustrated with the site well I set the distance to less than 50 miles I keep getting people 3 400 miles away I'm unable to message people that I want to what should I spend this money for how do I get my money back

This app is a complete scam targeting lonely heart Christian's. You can tell when someone half your age and gorgeous acts like they are in love with you after a little conversation. They ask for your phone # to chat. When their English is more broken than any heart in history, it's one of many dead ... Show more give aways. They claim 2b free but that's just to suck you in. If they were truly Christians, they would not pull a bait and switch. This has to be the worst dating app out there. Dont waste your time or money.

Dee (Daryl) maybe it’s the same guy (Eugene Dee too I saw above in text)?. Dee is only looking for sex. Constant redirecting conversation to sex. This is not a conversation you have until you’ve been dating for months. Not in the first few conversations. Most guys don’t even write at all. Creepy lo... Show more oking guys hit me up as if they had a shot with a much younger and respectable woman like myself. Interests are Always thousands of miles away. Many have such thick accents I can’t communicate well enough with them for anything serious. That being said. It seems like there’s a lot of guys too on here that would be legit. If I were interested in them, but it’s a hit or miss on attractiveness, distance and quality of life to match with them. Never send money. Always ask intentional important questions specific to your needs in life and how to best match with you as a life long partner. That’s the only goal. If they are saying “see where things go” or something vague. They aren’t ready to be in a relationship! They are little boys trying to play a game. You are better than that and are here to find someone who is ready. Obviously we are seeing where it goes, that’s what dating is, but if they are saying it out loud and putting up that wall, they’re already pushing away. Trying to keep their options open. If they are interested in you, they will text you often and answer your questions with honesty and love in their heart. They will be respectful of your hesitations. If you do meet, do not be physical with them until you’ve established their family and friends and lifestyle life. Truly know who people are before giving away money, body, heart, or too much of your time even. Moving too fast is partially your fault. So stop giving them power. They should be friends and date loyal and respectful for a year before anything gets serious. And know everyone in their lives, not just isolating with only them.

This site is full of Nigerian scammers. I can't help but think it's the same guy putting up multiple fake profiles. Ask for a Zoom call right away and the scammers will fall off. Don't engage in conversation with these scumbags!! This site is such a disappointment. There are good men, however, very ... Show more far away and about 30% are decent. Some of the photos look like they just got out of prison. Beware!!!

Yes indeed. I was scammed, but I new this guy was a fraud when he asked for money in a totally robotic tone. I didn’t go for it. I deleted the thread, blocked, and reported him. Watch out for John Howard L or John Howard S. Very very sad that these scammers have nothing better to do with their ... Show more time than to be frauds. I pray they would find forgiveness through Jesus. Jesus Christ is definitely not a scam. Always faithful, truthful, real, and actually cares about our well-being.

Ladies look out for Eugene Dee and Smith (just Smith) and I don't remember his full name but his first name is Kelvin and he's 42 years old from Missouri, they want your personal info and Eugene Dee is looking for a trophy wife asap to make miserable NO you won't get any money or any type of goodies... Show more :) PLEASE be very careful Ladies.

I’m an older woman (74) and so I was naturally cautious. I decided right off not to give out any personal information. I’ve always said if you want to know someone’s true character get them mad. I started telling guys upfront that I wasn’t giving out any info and they would all of a sudden just disa... Show more ppear. I am an English major and every one of them made errors. Mostly sentence structure. If I read carefully I can actually hear their accent. Interestingly many of them would use the same phrases and make the same type of errors. These guys have been around the block and are pretty good at what they are doing. I would never recommend this site to anyone.

I was messaging a "gentleman" for four months. He asked me for a $100.00 steam card because he worked in Cambodia for the UN. He told me that we were going to get married as soon as he came back to the states he then said that he could qualify for some money from his "company" but I had to give him ... Show more my full name, mailing address, DOB, SSN, etc. He went by the name of Kylecardi. Please be very careful. Like what someone else posted this is my last time on a online dating app. In fact he sounded like Mark Dave Baptist 61.
