What Happens When You Delete Elite Singles Account

Deleting And Reactivating Elite Singles Account
Right after you deleted your old Elite Singles account you can start a new one, a process known in the online dating community as Elite Singles reset. Reset works for one important reason.
As the Elite Singles algorithm will think that you are a new profile, they will give you a so-called new user boost that will give your profile higher visibility than a regular profile which will result in more matches. In its effect, it is similar to Elite Singles Spotlight, but it lasts longer.
It can also be beneficial for several other reasons. It gives you a chance to match with profiles who swiped your previous profile left. You can also redo your Elite Singles profile from scratch, make a better bio, and take better pictures so you will have a better chance of getting matches this time.
Deleting Your Elite Singles Account with Subscription
A good question is whether you can keep your existing Elite Singles Boost subscription and have your Elite Singles Coins back that you didn’t use up yet. Unfortunately, the answer is a clear no.
Keep this in mind when you want to reset your account. Also, if you want to use the Elite Singles reset tactic don’t buy Elite Singles Boost for a lifetime, because you won’t be able to use it for a lifetime at all.
Also, cancel your Elite Singles Boost subscription before you delete your profile so they won’t recharge you even if you don’t use the app anymore.

Elite Singles Shadowban Test
On Elite Single as a lot of people used the resetting hack to get a new user boost, they decided to introduce a shadowban for these users. It means when you reset an account right after you delete it, your profile will be deactivated for 30 days. You will still be able to swipe profiles but you won’t be shown to others.
Elite Singles hasn’t made a similar algorithmic change yet. They even say explicitly on their official website they do not penalize or shadowban a profile that recreated their Elite Singles profile.
Although they also say they recommend not to use this tactic that often, as profiles can experience a lower match ratio if they repeat this tactic too many times.

It depends on what you mean by deleting Elite Singles. If you delete only the mobile app, you won’t delete anything else. Your profile will be untouched, you will have all your existing matches. If you delete your Elite Singles account, then the opposite is true, everything will be deleted including your profile and all your existing connections.
