Experiences and opinions of other visitors that were mediated via Chispa.
I was recently recommended to sign up for the Chispa dating app during a visit to New York City. As someone interested in exploring the gay dating sce... ne, I decided to give it a try. Unfortunately, my experience was far from satisfactory.What I liked about ChispaThorough profiles: While the sign-up process was lengthy, it did allow for detailed profiles. This could be beneficial for users who appreciate comprehensive profiles to get to know potential matches better.What I didn't like about ChispaTedious sign-up process: The initial setup was incredibly tedious. The app required an excessive amount of information for my profile, including detailed bio and demographic information. While thorough profiles can be beneficial, the process was unnecessarily time-consuming and cumbersome.Unintuitive user interface: Once my profile was finally set up, navigating the app proved to be a challenge. The interface is not user-friendly and is confusing compared to other dating apps I have used. It took me a while to understand how to use the app effectively.Unreasonable paywall and excessive ads: As I started exploring the app, I received notifications about potential matches. However, to view these matches, the app required me to pay. This paywall felt unreasonable, especially since other dating apps offer basic features for free. Additionally, the ability to chat with matches is restricted unless both users pay or match simultaneously, which further limits the app's usability. Furthermore, the app displayed numerous ads urging me to pay for premium features. These ads were intrusive and constantly reminded me of the need to pay to see matches or contact anyone. This aggressive monetization strategy was frustrating and detracted from the overall user experience.Account issues and poor customer service: After a few days, I finally began to receive matches and started chatting with people. However, I was soon locked out of my account without explanation. I contacted the company for support, and after extensive research on Reddit and Czora, I discovered this is a common issue with the app. For three days, I exchanged emails with multiple customer service representatives, each asking for the same information: my user ID, email address, and contact details. Despite providing this information repeatedly, no one could tell me why my account was disabled. Eventually, I received an apology and a notice that my account was terminated without any explanation of what terms or conditions I supposedly violated.ConclusionIn summary, Chispa is a deeply flawed app with poor customer service, a confusing user interface, unreasonable paywalls, and intrusive ads. Despite my efforts, I never received a satisfactory explanation for my account termination, and I am confident I did not violate any terms and conditions. This app feels like a money pit, and I would strongly advise against using it. Save your time and money and look elsewhere for a dating app that values its users and provides a better overall experience. «»
Like ? Absolutely nothing I paid a membership for nothing. Wasting money and time.
NothingLike most apps owned by the same company, match.com, which they are, this app uses fake profiles and fake people that are actually employees o... f the dating app. Occasionally they will even give out fake phone numbers but these are hideous people that will all die of cancer from impersonating singles on the internet for money. «»
Attractive ladies, culturally aligned with me, and many are actually looking for relationships vs hookups which is refreshing over Tinder. The questio... ns are a cool way to engage Latin culture, and they just added more demographic tags.Not a lot of bios (yes I’m a guy that reads bios) and no minimal data enforcement. If you want to upload just 1 pic, no info you can and that is fine if it weren’t like 40% of profiles. Also, socioeconomic demographics lean toward the less well-off side of things (no offense but there are a ton of ghetto girls on here and the ratios seem much higher than other apps). As an accomplished professional that wants to engage my roots thru this app, this can be rough (though I’ve taken a few chances and it’s been good to meet different demos of latinas). Seems a lot of density of proximity unless you are in NYC, DC, Miami or LA. I live in NYC but frequent other states for work and rarely find that I make it 30 swipes before folks are 100+ miles away. «»
Chispa isn’t a bad dating app. It definitely has a lot of potential to be great. I’m having a decent experience with it so far and have been a member ... for several months now, since before the update. The new update and “look” is definitely a big plus. There certainly are a lot of Latina women on the site and that’s why I joined because my dating preference is Latina women, I’m just drawn to them. They have all been nice and respectful to me and I have had some nice conversations but have only gone on two actual dates.Even though the new update on Chispa is a real big help and plus Chispa has raised its prices. Chispa seriously needs to enforce the “Made for people who want serious relationships “ flow. This claims to not be an app for hookups and for people who just want casual encounters (god knows there are millions of apps for that already!), yet they have hook up and flirting as an option on your profile, leading to more encounters with scammers, fake profiles and yes…escorts or prostitution. I have had this happen several times now. Chispa has worked on getting the distance thing fixed a little, but for some reason, I still keep getting people I may like 90-150 miles from me. I just don’t see how there aren’t many members between Philly and the NJ shore 🤷🏼♂️ Also, Chispa really needs to get involved in making sure people are who they claim to be!!! This is my biggest turn-off about the app. This and the girls who want money for sex. It makes me leave the app even though I come back periodically, hoping it’s different… it never really is much. «»
Some attractive younger females if they’re real profiles or not I don’t know.Everything else.
NothingNRF Literally decided to split up an in-person job I already had covered and it will now require 2 in-persons. What in all the actual hell
