my vinted story

33 Posts

2 days ago i set up an account with vinted uk and today i was asked to verify via my mobile number [after verifying via my email two days ago]
anyway, i go to verify via my mobile number and it keeps saying my number is not valid and now i am locked out of my vinted account for 24 hours! [i do not think i will get back in to be honest]
i have no idea what is going on but i am worried as they [vinted uk] have my bank account details and i want to remove my bank account details from their service
i have asked my bank if they can advise me on how to cancel my card details that have been left with them [vinted uk] as i have tried to do it via online banking but i can not seem to see if it can be done this way?! [plus i am locked out of my vinted account]
anyway i hope my story can help warn others as i feel vinted is a very dodgy business
take care from me

The forums there are quite useful, but for general chat there are a few of us Vinted users on the ebay board (see my signature)
One last thing, make sure you sign up with a mainstream bank , people are reporting issues with withdrawing money to some of the newer online ones.
