Was Likes.io Banned from Trustpilot? What We Found

Trustpilot's page for likes.io showed a removal notice on September 10, 2026. That's how Virallized, a rival growth service, quoted it: "This profile has been removed. The business you're trying to find goes against our guidelines and is no longer visible on Trustpilot." The notice gives no reason. Older articles, including an earlier version of this page, said Likes.io was caught buying fake reviews. We found no source for that. And Likes.io was still selling followers and likes on October 22, 2026.

Trustpilot's site rules don't allow our reader, so the notice comes from Virallized's reading. On October 22, 2026, we read the other pages through our server and checked Google's results.

Kicksta's comparison of June 26, 2023, which gave the Sitejabber count then; Virallized's reading of Trustpilot on September 10, 2026; Sitejabber's page (it now opens on SmartCustomer) and Likes.io's reviews page, read October 22, 2026.

Kicksta, a rival, wrote in 2023 that "Likes.io doesn't have an account on Trustpilot." By September 2026, Trustpilot showed the removal notice for it. HowSociable, another review site, quoted the same words for buzzoid.com and twicsy.com on October 8, 2026.

Was Likes.io removed for fake reviews?

We found no source that says so. Virallized, which read the notice, wrote that "Trustpilot does not publish the reason for an individual removal." On three other growth services' pages, it quoted a different notice: "We've removed a number of fake reviews for this company." The notice it quoted for Likes.io has no such line.

SmartCustomer (where sitejabber.com opens), ScamAdviser's report from about three weeks earlier and Likes.io's reviews page, read October 22, 2026; a Reddit thread of October 4, 2024, as Google shows it.

Sitejabber lists Likes.io as unclaimed. Its newest review, from October 14, 2026, says 100 followers "disappeared all within an hour." Likes.io's own page shows five of its 13 reviews, and all five are dated April 16, 2026. ScamAdviser says likes.io "has a very low trust score." It also notes payment methods "which allow you to get your money back." The Reddit buyer wrote that they "spent nearly $60" and got neither the followers nor a refund.

Yes. On October 22, 2026, it charged $13.49 for 1,000 Instagram followers and $13.49 for 1,000 likes. Its refund policy names the company behind it, H.H. Connect for Marketing and PR in Dubai.
