Whether the app keeps crashing or your messages are just not going through, a “failed to send” pop-up usually indicates a poor internet connection or a technical issue with the app.
There are normally nine possible reasons, which are:

- Your account was flagged
- Your account was blocked
- Your account is banned
In this post, I’ll take a look at these 9 reasons, starting with the two most common. You can troubleshoot why this is happening to you. There is a simple fix to each issue.

Why is My Tinder Messaging Not Working? 7 Extra Reasons + Fixes
Nevertheless, let’s dive into other known Tinder error message causes:
1. Tinder Network Failure
The Tinder network might be experiencing issues. You can check Google or any other news source to verify if this is the case.
2. An Internet Provider Block
Your Internet Service Provider might block Tinder access. Are you in a public location, like a school or library? Some places don’t allow students to get on social networking applications.
3. Corrupted Tinder App
Oddly enough, Tinder contains a cache full of memory that could be the culprit. A full cache can cause Tinder to crash or send out error messages. Try clearing your cache.
4. To Clear Your Cache By Going Into Mobile Settings
- Go to Mobile settings > Tinder
- Click Clear Data
- Click Clear Cache
5. Your Account Was Flagged
Other members can flag your account for what they deem inappropriate content. In this instance, you might be seeing a pop-up that says, “We’ve detected inappropriate behavior….”
Your account won’t get banned if one person reports you. You should be able to continue sending messages to new members.
6. You Are Blocked
In other words, members also can block other members from sending messages. If you can’t send a message to a specific recipient, try to message other members on the app.
If this is the case, move on. There is a lot of other fish in the sea.
7. Your Account Is Banned
If you are entirely unable to send messages, your account is likely banned.
You might have assumed that after receiving a “Your Account is Banned” pop-up. However, some users will see “something went wrong 40303.” It’s time to contact Tinder customer service if this is in error.
