Worst App I Have Ever Used – LINE Review

TL;DR: Upon downloading LINE, my number was suspended within 10 minutes and I wasn’t given any explanation when I reached out to their help center. I downloaded this app for the first time yesterday thinking this was the app to more efficiently message with friends I’ve made on a video game. I attempted to create a group chat and was immediately given an error message, which I found strange because my other friend told me they were able to create one (his first time). No big deal, I’ll just join that one, but when I attempted to create a username so that I could be found in the search tab, nothing would happen. I tried this for a couple a minutes and decided to just re-install the app. However, when I attempted to login with my phone number I received a notice saying that my phone number was temporarily blocked?!?! At this point, I’m incredibly annoyed at how this could even be possible... I JUST DOWNLOADED IT 15min ago at this point and literally everything that could have gone wrong in using this app already has. So, I contact support only for them to get back to me later on the day (at least they have that going for them?) to tell me that I’ve been banned for one of several reasons illegal or inappropriate reasons, NONE of which I did considering that I didn’t even manage to create a username before being suspended. I don’t know when they’re going to lift the suspension, but that’s hardly relevant I’ll simply use something that’s actually competent. Nonetheless, how is something like this even possible?! I’d give this garbage app 0 stars for wasting my time if possible.
