How do I change my profile details?

Go to your member profile page to update account details and preferences.

Why am I asked to enable extra security features?

Some account roles may require stronger security (such as two-factor protection) to protect listing management and owner access workflows.

Listings

5 items

I can't find an escape room that I know exists. How can I add it?

If a room or venue is missing, please contact support@wheretoescape.com with the room name, city, venue/company name, and website link. We regularly add new listings and can fast-track verified submissions.

The details for a room are wrong. How do I report it?

Open the room page and share the incorrect details with support@wheretoescape.com. Include what needs changing and a reliable source (official website or booking page) so we can verify quickly.

Why can't I see some venues or rooms?

Some listings may be hidden while awaiting review, verification, or owner approval. We also only show active content publicly to keep search results accurate.

How often is room data updated?

Core listing data is updated on an ongoing basis. If you notice urgent issues (closed room, moved venue, wrong booking link), email support and we can prioritise a manual correction.

Why does a room show as closed or coming soon?

Statuses are based on available source data and verification updates. If a status is outdated, send evidence to support and we'll review it.

Owners

4 items

I'm a venue owner. How do I claim my venue or company?

Visit the For Venue Owners page and submit a claim request. Admins review claims for security and may ask for verification from an official business email domain.

Is claiming ownership free?

Yes. Claiming your venue or company listing is free.

How long does owner verification take?

Most requests are reviewed within a few business days. Complex verification cases can take longer if we need additional evidence.

Can I transfer ownership to another manager or owner?

Yes. Contact support@wheretoescape.com from an authorised company email and include the account details of the new owner/manager.

Privacy

1 item

How do I request removal or correction of my personal data?

Use the contact details in our privacy policy and provide enough information to identify your account or record. We handle requests in line with applicable regulations.

Ratings & Reviews

4 items

How do ratings work on WhereToEscape?

Where available, listings combine multiple rating sources and user-contributed data to give a clearer picture of room quality.

Can I leave my own room review?

Logged-in users can add ratings for rooms they have played. User-written reviews are not currently supported.

How do I mark a room as completed?

Use the completed/rated controls on room pages or in your member dashboard. Your completed history helps track what you've played.

I submitted a review but cannot see it. Why?

User-written reviews are not currently supported. If your rating is missing, it may be delayed by caching or account state checks. If it still does not appear, contact support with the room name and submission time.

Search & Discovery

2 items

How do I search for rooms in a specific city or region?

Use the map and listing pages with search and filters. You can browse by location and then refine by preferences like awards or room characteristics.

What if the map is not showing results near me?

Check your location permissions and zoom level first. If results still look wrong, search by city name directly and report map issues to support with screenshots.

Technical Support

3 items

How can I report a technical bug?

Please email support@wheretoescape.com with steps to reproduce, screenshots, and device/browser details. This helps us fix issues much faster.

The website looks broken on mobile. Can you help?

Yes. Send the page URL, phone model, OS, browser version, and a screenshot to support. We'll investigate responsive layout issues.

A booking link does not work. What should I do?

Please report the broken URL and room name to support. We can update stale booking links after verification.

Trip Planning

3 items

Can I plan a trip with multiple escape rooms?

Yes. Use the trip planner to build routes with multiple rooms, then save and refine your itinerary.

Do I need an account to build and save routes?

No account is needed to build and share a route link. An account is only required to save and manage routes in your dashboard.

Can I check room availability from WhereToEscape?

Availability support depends on the room and booking integration. If live slots are available, they will appear on the room page or in route planning flows.
