Is AppealMyBan legit?
You searched that before you paid, which is the right instinct. Here is the company, its public register entry, the record behind our work, and the lines we never cross.
Intake first. Payment after. Not taken on = refunded.
The short answer
We had a Tinder ban lifted 31 days after our data access request; every step is in the case study. Tinder’s own figure, from Match Group’s 2025 EU transparency reports: it reversed 21.2% of appeals against account bans, about 1 in 5.
We guarantee the work: the first filing within 48 hours of us having everything we need, or your fee back. The reinstatement decision is the app’s; getting your case in front of the right desk, on the right deadline, is ours. No insider contacts, no workarounds, no new accounts, and we never ask for your password. Everything we do and charge is on the facts page.
What is actually documented, and what is only anecdote
We check our own citations. The Irish Data Protection Commission has published exactly two dating-app case studies, both from 2022 and both about Tinder: one where Tinder deleted the data behind eleven linked accounts so the man could start again, one where it re-reviewed a ban and lifted it. We re-check its case-study indexes, and those remain the only two.
Beyond regulators, the documented record is thinner than the internet suggests. Public pressure has moved dating apps twice that we can source: Hinge publicly apologised and reinstated Laverne Cox and Trace Lysette within a day in 2020 after a wave of transphobic reporting, and Tinder reversed a blanket suspension policy on Black Lives Matter posts the same month after a backlash. Neither is a route an ordinary person can use on demand, and Cox was banned again months later. We list them because they happened, not because they are a plan.
We work out which routes are actually open to you, write the appeal where the app gives you a box for one, and file the routes outside the app in your name, the first inside 48 hours. We never ask for your password. Intake first, payment after.
Get my case built - $149Why the warnings exist, and how we clear them
Search this and page one warns you off paid services that promise to lift dating-app bans. Those warnings are aimed at guarantees, insider contacts and new-account sellers, and we sell none of them. A legal-help service has already had to pay for overclaiming. In February 2025 the US Federal Trade Commission ordered DoNotPay to pay $193,000 over its “robot lawyer” claims: the FTC’s complaint said the company did not test whether its “AI lawyer” operated to the level of a human lawyer.
What we sell is different: requests and complaints made under the law, filed on deadlines the law sets, with every step documented in your case file. What follows is everything you need to check us.

A registered US company, on the public register under its own name, with every filing made in writing and copied to you.
We never sell a promised outcome. The decision belongs to the platform. A service that promises it is guessing. We build the case that puts the decision in front of the people who can reverse it, on the deadline the law gives them.
We never log in as you. We never ask for your password, the code the app texts you, or your Apple or Google sign-in, and we would refuse them if you offered. Some appeals can only be submitted from inside your own account, so for those we write it and you press send.
We never sell new accounts. That is the other half of this market and it is not our business. Resets fail the moment a platform checks a face or a payment method, and they turn a reversible ban into a terms breach.
We never let silence stand. Your case goes in front of every desk that applies, and every legal clock is tracked. When a platform goes quiet, we chase on the deadline and take it to the regulator.
Our record
The case study. We had a Tinder ban lifted 31 days after our data access request: Tinder’s Data Protection Office reversed it. Each step is in the case study. Customers’ cases stay private unless they ask us to publish theirs.
Judge the drafting before you pay: read sample filings from a worked case.
The reversal figures on this site are the platforms’ own. In Match Group’s 2025 EU transparency reports, Tinder reversed 21.2% of appeals against account bans and Hinge 36.1%.
The case check is free and takes two minutes. It tells you which routes are open on your ban, including the cases where it tells you not to pay anyone.
The routes that do less than people hope
These are the ones we are asked about most, and what each one can and cannot do:
The Better Business Bureau is the weakest option here. Match Group answers ban complaints there with a template saying it cannot process appeals through the BBB portal, and no BBB complaint has ever been shown to reverse a dating-app ban. A BBB complaint builds a dated public record and lifts no ban. We file one from The Case up, only as that record, and say so before it goes.
Appeals Centre Europe is the EU dispute body most people find first, and it takes no dating apps at all: its scope is Facebook, Instagram, TikTok, Pinterest, Threads, YouTube and Google Maps. Three other certified bodies do take them, which is why naming the right one matters more than filing quickly.
Your State Attorney General is a pattern log, not a lever. Washington, Colorado, Texas and California all say in their own words that they do not investigate or resolve individual complaints. An Attorney General complaint builds a dated record and lifts no ban.
An erasure request removes no ban record by itself, and it takes your own evidence with it. Ask for access first. Erasure is not always the end of the matter: in one of the two Irish Data Protection Commission cases above, an erasure request taken to the regulator ended with Tinder re-reviewing the ban and lifting it. But you cannot read a file that has been deleted.
You pay for the work, not the platform’s decision, so the outcome is never refunded. These refunds need no form and no argument. Cancel within 3 days of paying, for any reason, before anything has been sent. If we miss our 48-hour deadline for the first filing, counted from when we have everything we need to file, you can ask for the fee back in full; the filing goes out anyway, and taking the refund ends the engagement there. If we decide not to take your case after reading it, you are refunded in full and we say why. If part of the work fails on our side, a route filed late or one that turns out not to exist for your case, that part is refunded.
EU and UK law also gives you 14 days to withdraw from a distance contract without giving a reason. Because you ask us to start inside those 14 days, the law limits it: once the work is fully delivered the right ends, and if you withdraw part-way you pay for the part already done and get the rest back. It is written into the terms because you are entitled to know it. The whole refund policy is short enough to read in two minutes.
