I can’t close my account or even get on to delete it. My account was hacked and no one seems to care or help out
I want to have my personal data removed and the account canceled from zoosk.com
It is IMPOSSIBLE to delete my account following these steps! It wants me to update my payment method BEFORE I can delete my account. WHY? If I am deleting my account, why do you need a new payment method? This is BS – you call my account delinquent because I didn’t want to renew so I used a dead gift card to ensure you can’t bill me? You are more like a thief insisting you charge me one more time on the way out. Scammers.
Corn Pop Biden, If you have subscribed to Zoosk, you have to cancel your Zoosk subscription at first and then follow the steps to delete your account. You can check out our article on how to cancel your Zoosk subscription.
This does not delete your account it simply deactivates it, keep that in mind. They always retain the account. You could simply go back into zoosk in a years time and hit activate and all your account will still be there.
Zoosk.com is shady and an application you want to stay away, they gather more data than Facebook and Google combined, I know hard to believe right? How do I know that, because I was part of that team at some point. In some instances they refuse deactivating your account, even if you are not a paying member or what they call subscriber, even if you are on a desktop computer like they recommend, why do you think that is?
I lost my zoosk account. Can’t remember my password and when i try to retreive my password it wants to send my info to my old phone number.
Was a good read. Appreciate the tips and the warning and how it all was put but do check out this
Delete account permanently is different from ‘Deactivate Account’.
I would like to delete my account but can’t seem to get to it
Pam Kraft, technically you cannot delete your Zoosk account. You can only deactivate your account, which will hide your profile from Zoosk but won’t delete your data from Zoosk.
I followed all the steps and it only enables me to pause my account because the deactivate button isn’t highlighted so I can’t choose it.
This annoyed me about zoosk. You can only deactivate your account from a laptop or pc not from the app that is accessed from a phone or tablet. So if you only have a tablet or phone you cant deactivate your account.
How horrible. This is what I call a forced confinement. Been trying to delete my account for over a week and not it makes sense. I do not have a laptop….. what are my options???!
