Making Contact on WantUBad

WantUBad Contact
  • Sending messages is a premium feature
  • Browse members one-by-one through the Like Gallery
  • Send out “winks” for free
  • Add members to Favourites for free
  • All members can send messages for free
  • There is a chatroom

Like the other dating sites operated by Together Networks, WantUBad doesn’t offer much in terms of features. To interact with other members, you have four functionalities to choose from. Three out of the four are accessible for all standard members.

  • Winks

Got your eye on someone? At WantUBad, you may start the interaction by sending a Wink. This function is free and can be used whenever you like what you’re seeing.

A member will be immediately notified after you sent a wink. Thus, if the feeling is mutual, the other party may wink back or even initiate a chat.

  • Like Gallery

Sometimes, seeing all the profiles at once may be overwhelming. It’s unfortunate, but you’re bound to miss a fantastic match when you skim. 

With the Like Gallery, however, you get to focus your attention on one person only. Check them out one by one and hit the heart button if you’re interested.

  • Favourites

If you would like to make sure you don’t miss out on anyone, you can save profiles to your Favourites list. As long as you don’t remove them, you may always look back and interact whenever you feel like it.

  • Chat

If all else fails, you can opt to be direct and send a message. However, WantUBad’s Chat function is paid, so you might want to consider upgrading your subscription.

If you’re not sure about this, WantUBad will give you five free messages. You can choose to spend all five on one profile or to split it for more coverage.

One thing we noticed at WantUBad is the instant messages and notifications we received. These alerts tell us several members browsed our profiles, sent us a wink, added us to their favourites, and event sent us a message. This is a good sign, right?

It could have been a good sign if only these profiles were interacting with a fully-furnished account. Ours was brand new, two minutes after we verified our email to be exact, so there was no time to add a photo, customise profiles, and whatnots.

This rather absurd interest in a profile so empty anyone would think it was fake, got us wondering why. We dived deep into the Terms of Use and found a clause that reads:

“To boost interaction between our members and to notify them of newly registered matches and their activity, we may, from time to time, use an automatic pop notification system and other communication channels, e.g. inbox or instant messages to send Activity Alerts to you. Activity Alerts will be marked in your inbox with a specific icon, and some auto generated Activity Alerts may require an upgraded Paid Membership in order to see the content of messages and reply to them.”

We automatically assumed this clause pertains to the Site Admin, who WantUBad already disclosed was a bot. However, we can see all of the bot’s messages and even access the links shared there. For non-paying members, it's the direct messages that won’t be visible unless they upgraded their subscription.

Whether we signed up during a particularly slow and inactive day, or fake profiles is all there is at WantUBad is still unfounded. However, we did decide to move forward with caution and check every little detail the site has to offer.

WantUBad Profile Quality

WantUBad Profile
  • Reports claim that there are bogus accounts
  • Photos are regulated by the moderators
  • Easy to supply and edit information
  • Upgrade to view full-sized photos

    Even with a standard account, you can view most of the members' profiles. If filled out adequately, the details will be enough for you to make out what the person is like in terms of physique and qualities. 
     
    Viewing a member’s gallery and what they’re looking for at WantUBad won’t be for free, but the profile’s quite meaty with these details:

    • Basic Information

    This section is sort of like a header where the member’s primary photo, username, age, and location will be displayed. Apart from these details, buttons to send a like, start a chat, or add the member to your Favorites list will be here along with options to block or report the profile.

    • Personal Information and Gallery

    This part includes member’s orientation, hair colour, ethnic origin, and body type plus the photo Gallery, which, as stated, won’t be readily accessible for free users.

    • Preference and Location

    A member’s location can be viewed for free, but only paying members get to know what the profile holder is looking for at WantUBad.

    • Additional Information

    Details on a member’s physique, hobbies, vices, and professional life will be posted here. 

    Most of the profiles were empty save for the supposed member’s photo and required details (orientation, age, and location), which added fire to our suspicions. We did spot several profiles with more than one photo and took it as a positive sign that maybe members prefer to keep it private. 

    Also, customising your profile is a skippable process. You can postpone it indefinitely; the lack of repercussions, if you don’t add details, maybe the reason why members don’t bother completing their profiles.

    WantUBad App

    WantUBad Mobile
    • No mobile app available
    • Website can be accessed through mobile browsers
    • Features minimal ads
    • Easy to navigate

    Given that the members at WantUBad were relatively young, it was quite a missed opportunity that the platform did not have a mobile app. It would have been beneficial for on-the-go members so they can continue chatting and flirting even when they’re away from their computers. 

    The upside is that WantUBad did provide a pretty solid alternative with its mobile-responsive design. Members can sign in to their accounts with their preferred mobile browser and enjoy all the functionalities the web version has to offer.

    As mentioned, all the features are readily available in the mobile counterpart, as well as the colour palette used by the website. The transition from a bigger screen to a smaller, handheld one is not a cause for worry as the mobile version made use of icons and several tabs to make sure navigation is easy.

    Chatting won’t be possible without a paid account, so if it's real connection you seek, it might be best if you upgrade.

    Male and female members are offered two different subscription types. For female users, there are three subscription packages, and their option will depend on their utmost priority:

    • Chataholic: Be a popular member by topping search rankings 
    • Extra Security: Protect yourself while online dating thanks to features like HTTPS encryption, incognito browsing, and auto history cleaning.
    • Premium Dater: All the perks of Chataholic and Extra Security in one package

    Males are offered monthly packages covering 1, 3, and 6 months. Consider these deals as the male equivalent of the premium dater: men are allowed to access all the functions while topping search rankings freely. Since it’s a longer commitment, men can test the waters with an affordable 3-Day Trial. 

    Cancelling a subscription is quite easy at WantUBad. Log in and visit the “My Settings” tab first. Then check “Your Billing History” and click “Deactivate Subscription.”
