Grindr Charge on Your Bank Statement

Grindr is a dating & relationships company. Grindr is a social networking and dating app for gay, bi, trans, and queer people. Charges appear for Grindr Unlimited or Grindr Xtra subscriptions, which offer features such as unlimited profiles, no adverts, and advanced filters. It may appear on your bank statement under a shortened descriptor rather than its full name.

Grindr is a well-known, legitimate company. Most charges from this merchant are authorised and relate to purchases or subscriptions you signed up for. If you don't recognise the charge, check your email for a receipt or log into your Grindr account to review recent activity.

To cancel Grindr, log in to your account on their website and navigate to your account or subscription settings. Alternatively, contact their customer support directly. Once cancelled, no further charges should be taken. If you have already been charged and wish to recover the money, contact your bank to raise a dispute.

If you do not recognise a charge from Grindr, call the number on the back of your bank card or use your bank's mobile app to raise a dispute. Explain that you do not recognise the transaction and ask for a chargeback. Under Visa and Mastercard rules you typically have up to 120 days from the transaction date to raise a chargeback claim. For purchases over £100 paid by credit card, you may also have additional protection under Section 75 of the Consumer Credit Act.

Banks display a short "transaction descriptor" set by the merchant's payment processor, not the company's full trading name. This is why Grindr may appear as an abbreviation or code. The descriptor is usually the company's registered payment name, which can differ from the brand name you recognise.
