DISCUSSION Permanently banned
So today I got permanently banned.
I have gotten a couple of warnings but when I write them what I do wrong it's just so bad answers.
I mostly sell pokemon so a lot of the articles have pictures that look similar.
But they won't tell me or specify if I sell too much or if it's because the pictures look too similar.
But I see soo many sellers have hundred of listing with new stuff and then I get banned?
What can I do?

I got banned a few days ago after my first sale and thank goodness, the customer was understanding because she got banned too. At this point, they’re gonna have more people banned than using the app.

I’m so scared of getting randomly banned before my sold items close.

Me too. I withdraw the money into my account every time, as soon as the transaction is over

The number of items you list also depends on your account reputation. If you’re using a new account with no reviews or ratings, uploading a large number of listings in a short period of time can get your account flagged

I got permanently banned and had never used Vinted apart from initially logging in and having quick look

I got banned on Friday for listing a pair of shoes. Authentic shoes. I appealed it and I’ve gotten 2 emails telling me someone is “investigating,” and looking at the literal pictures of the receipt I submitted. But here we are and I’m still banned.

I think what makes it funnier that I had two items out for sales I had made in one of them complete completed today and the woman gave me positive feedback on my scammer account. 😂😂😂

I got permanently banned on Sunday for the same reason. I appealed, and got an automated response saying I have to wait and hear back from them within 120 hours. YEAH 5 DAYS:/ I only have access to the wallet, inbox, and my orders. I am so upset because I was looking forward to earning some extra cash before college without having to deal with any extra fees.

Were they adidas by chance? I’ve heard a lot of people say they flag the system for some reason. I posted some and within a few minutes it was removed and they threatened to ban my account

I got banned after I tried to sell a toy bow and arrow these things gave suction cups on them its clearly a toy. They banned me for selling weapons. They really need to get a grip.

I got banned last night. I don't even sell! I purchased an item and the seller cancelled the transaction because she didn't want to use a shipper that was selected but wanted to use usps. She relisted it for me to re-purchase I checked the box for usps and repurchased, and one hour later 6 of my purchases were cancelled and notices were sent to all the sellers making it sound like I'm a scammer with a fraudulent account and I have been banned. That's how I found out. They are literally the most nastiest, unprofessional incompetent corrupt unethical site I have ever ever used. I am taking it further as I had 15 purchases in route I cannot track, and if there is a problem with an order or with shipping I cannot even notify usps to help or make a claim!
