Why Was Your OkCupid Account Banned?

OkCupid community guidelines are straightforward. You will get banned from the app if you are:

  • Promoting hate speech—This includes discrimination against certain ethnicities, religious groups, sexism, racism, ageism, and other forms of bigotry
  • Uploading violent and graphic content—OkCupid will banish users who threaten other users, share content that depicts violent acts, and promote any type of violence
  • Sharing explicit sexual content or engaging in sexual harassment—The platform doesn’t allow sending sexual content to other users without their consent, posting inappropriate comments, and similar actions
  • Engaging in harassment of any sort—This includes slurs, verbal abuse, and forcing non-consensual conversation with other users
  • Participating in illegal activities—Using your OkCupid profile for illegal sexual acts, drug dealing, solicitation, etc.
  • Exploiting minors—This includes posting, uploading, and sharing any type of content involving abuse and sexual exploitation of children
  • Creating fake and joint accounts—You should not leave misleading info on your account or share your account with your partner. OkCupid may ban your profile if you use it to date other people without disclosing your relationship status
  • Engaging in extreme offsite behavior—If you use your profile to harass, stalk, abuse, or assault someone, OkCupid will deactivate your account and notify the authorities

Getting Banned From OkCupid for Inactivity

Another common reason why OkCupid may suspend your account is a long period of inactivity. If you haven’t been active on your OkCupid profile for more than a year, you will not be able to log in to it. The only solution in this case is to create a new account.

How To Get Your OkCupid Account Unbanned

Whether you got banned from your OkCupid account for inactivity or terms of service violation, the app will not inform you about the ban. This is a part of OkCupid’s privacy policy—it is a way they protect the identity of the person who reported your account.

If you believe your account was permanently suspended for no valid reason, you can file an appeal to OkCupid via email.

What Should Your OkCupid Suspension Appeal Include?

You are going to file an appeal in the form of an email, so you should carefully consider what to include in it. Note that since you don’t know why OkCupid suspended your account, you will have to figure out by yourself what the reason for your account ban was.

You do that by checking the terms of use on this platform. If you determine that you haven’t violated any of those rules, you should consider whether the ban was a result of any discrimination against you. If it was, make sure you have rock-solid proof and include it in your appeal.

In case you already made an appeal and OkCupid representatives still haven’t sent you a response, you can get their attention by sending them a demand letter. In this letter, you will request OkCupid to process your case.

If writing a demand letter seems like a tiring and time-consuming task, . Our app will create a draft and send it to the platform within minutes!
