"You'll have to give us more to go on than that!

Phone make + model?

Operating system?

Browser?

Do your other location apps (GPS, Maps) give your location correctly?

Have you given your browser permission to pass your location to Fab?

Etc.?"

I had the same problem with a Nokia Lumia it seems this site isn't 100% Windows phone compatible, like most websites.

Samsung and IPhone I've had no issues with.

Have you given Fab permission to use the location?

There's advice on allowing permission in this thread:

Do a forum search for "Samsung S6" and it's the one started by "RoadRunner12".

For some reason Fab doesn't recognise Yorkshire? I have no idea why, but Sheffield is in the East Midlands, apparently.

I had the location problem tonight with new Lumia 950. It's the internet browsing apps that comes with the phone (Microsoft edge) issue with allowing sites to have the location. All you need to do is go to store on your Lumia and get the google app. Make sure you allow location when it asks you. Then search and log in to fab swingers only using the google app. It will read your location no probs. Hope this helps.

Also noticed sometimes tries when clicking on some profiles/pages tries to put you on to Microsoft edge/internet explorer. Will notice your location go away. Just hit back up until your back to your google app. Iv selected allow location individually for ie/microsoft edge but didn't work. Go the google app route fir Lumia 950 if the location matters to you.

When you turn on Who's Near is the location shown accurate?

"53.76, -2.69" would be near Preston Centre, "53.75, -2.48" would be near Blackburn Centre.
