Background: I have been banned on hinge in summer 2020 (my fault bad opener), summer 2022 (revenge reported), fall 2023 (used a tinder auto swiper, got banned from tinder which resulted in a hinge ban). I have been able to get back on the apps no problem each time using a new account. I never appealed my bans. I have an active hinge account even now

Last night I wanted test if I could log into my old accounts but I only have the number of my 2020 account still so I tried that and it worked! Normally I would get a message saying I was banned but it prompted me to create a new profile after putting in my 2020 number that’s still active.

What are some explanations for this ? Am I truly no longer a “hinge fugitive”? Would the 2022/23 account phone numbers be cleared as well? Keep in mind I never appealed or ever messaged match group.

When I upload my photos to hinge they are blurry. Does anyone know of an app or a quick fix around this?

With all of the talk around biometric data , is it possible to have a European hinge account but use it in America ? So you can use the same data protections.
