I've seen a few of these services recently, and my biggest issue is that they don't offer the protection that an online service does.
If there's harrasment, 9:22 can't block that person from calling you, because you've given up your phone number. And ghosting an online account is way easier than ghosting a cell number, as that is suuuper inconvenient. If you want that protection it's on you to setup a killable phone number which is non-trivial.
What's your opinion on this @pranav1024?
- pranav1024 8y agoYeah, I agree that the harassment issue could definitely be annoying to deal with. However, we introduced the monthly subscription to weed out these kind of people before they join and it's working quite well so far. We haven't had any complaints of spamming and people are liking the person-to-person connection a lot - in fact, we just found out yesterday that two of our users started texting regularly after meeting each other on 9:22.
