Vinted

Was talking to someone yesterday who sells on Vinted and likes using it. Ive always sold on Ebay but decided today to give Vinted a try.

Opened and account, read all the info etc then proceeded to list a ladies top. All good, got the little 'Congratulations on your first listing, why not list another item' message. So I did a second one, another ladies top. When I pressed to list nothing happened, tried again, nothing, 
 Then I see a message notification has appeared and it says 'Your account has been locked and can no longer be used.' with the  reason that 'We suspect fraudulent activity on your account'. 

So I decided to appeal and got the message - This type of account closure cannot be appealed.

Baffled- back to Ebay it is!

Vinted has a lot of glitches, sometimes all you have to do is list a branded item or use a phrase the bots don't like and that's it.

Youc an appeal, I'm not entirely sure how but perhaps someone who is more experience with Vinted can help.

Thanks Soolin.
It wont actually allow me to appeal. The items were Marks and Spencers but the option was in the drop down list so i dont feel Ive fallen foul of any rules there. No worries.

I know you have had a bad experience, But as an avid vented user I could not recommend it high enough. So I would recommend you give it another go.

I probably would but it does say that any other account opened from this address would also be closed.
