What Happens After You Report Someone

Reviewed by SubDom Editorial TeamLast updated 24 August 2026

Reporting can feel like shouting into a void. Here is what actually happens on our end.

1. When you submit a report

Every report is reviewed by a member of our Trust & Safety team, typically within 24 hours.

2. What we look at

We review the information included in your report, the reported member's profile and any relevant on-platform messages. We may also consider the account's history and previous reports to understand the wider context.

3. Possible outcomes

  • No further action when the available information does not establish a breach.
  • A warning or restriction on the member's account.
  • Temporary suspension while further checks are completed.
  • Permanent removal for serious or repeated breaches.
  • Preservation or disclosure of relevant information when required by law or requested through a valid law-enforcement process.

4. Blocking versus reporting

Blocking is immediate and takes effect right away. Reporting additionally flags the account for our Trust & Safety team. The two are not the same action, and we would suggest doing both if you are ending contact with someone because of their behaviour.
