Hi I have been told off a friend that my location is showing in miles when I am on my mobile....

I have it turned off on both mobile and site so don't understand why this is? Currently profile is hid due to this! Would like to sort this asap so I can start to use the site properly can you help?

It will take a default mileage using the post code you have entered in your details. The Who's Near function (which you have turned off) gives your current location when in use.

Change your post code to something random and you won't show up in (local to you) searches.

From another thread:

"As I understand it:

There are 2 possible distances given:

The 1st is the distance from their (possibly inaccurate on grounds of anonymity) postcode to your (possibly inaccurate) postcode

Distance:

60+ miles away

(80+ driving)

The 2nd is only shown if they are on their mobile with Who's Near switched on

Right now:

They are on mobile, 60+ miles away

I presume this is the distance from their phone's location to your postcode, unless you also have Who's Near on, in which case it would be the distance between the 2 phones.

This is spot on

"If you are both on mobile with who is near on the message is something like:

"Right now:

You're both on mobile, within a mile"
