This review was chosen algorithmically as the most valued customer feedback.

Don’t waste your time on the website www.vinted.com. I sold some clothes on this website, but the moderators blocked my listings and after several days my account as well. I haven’t received money for the clothes and when I tried to reach moderators, no one replied. Total scam and waste of time. I wonder if there are other people, who had the same experience. Can you provide any good piece of advice?

Absolute joke of a company. Still now haven’t received my item and the tracking information is still on there for proof saying it hasn’t been delivered. Yet there’s nothing Vinted can do. SHOCKING do not recommend at all. Pictures to follow of how poorly they handle customer service.

I sold a book of Pokémon cards and buyer said items were water damaged and refused to send them back and Vinted said they did not have to return the items.

Exactly the same happened to me!

Been on vinted for months and loved it right up until a few weeks ago when a couple of my LEGIT items were flagged as counterfeit and stated they could only be shown with more pics ... Well that wasn't too difficult, sent a couple more pics and voila they were listed.

Three days ago I listed another branded item which again went through the third party automated validation checks. This lasted longer than usual

Woke up next morning to check my account and boom! Account suspended for a month. What makes it worse is the message I received stated that I had listed counterfeit items and therefore my account is blocked for a month...that is unless I provide further proof

Thing is, I have followed all of their stupid guidelines in respect of multiple angles shots, labels, stitching and care tags yet no this is still not good enough

Like most people I don't have the receipts or original packaging as at the time I didn't think oh I'm gonna sell this a few months down the line

It appears this verification algorithm is penalising legit sellers and is clearly just doing these blocks to show vinted 'hey look at me I'm working I have flagged an item' just to keep the developer of the third party software in business

I started off loving vinted but have grown to absolutely hate it in the matter of 3 days

It is day three now of sending in my further and still no response from their useless 'Customer Service'

To them you are a number but if you as a seller rely on the extra cash three days of selling can hit hard in this current climate let alone a month!

Safe to say depop will now be getting my custom

They took my money and wouldn't let me withdraw it. I provided them with my personal details to prove that I am the owner of the account but they still won't let me take my money and use the account.

I have now been asking for 6 days for a replacement shipping label as the parcel has been returned to me.

Why am I getting ignored.

One of the most appalling disingenuous customer service experiences I have ever had the misfortune to experience!

Vinted seriously need to up their game! Refunding buyers who have received items…facilitating theft!

Disgusted doesn’t cover it! And pathetic automated responses is simply NOT GOOD ENOUGH!

I paid for an expensive bag which was sent via Inpost on 7 June 2023 Courier removed it. Inpost confirmed this as seen on CCTV. Vinted maintain it was delivered. After weeks of complaining and sending Inpost email confirming that it’s lost Vinted refuse to refund on 20 July

Hello, I would like someone to deal with 2 incidents that have happened now.

I don’t understand how you can the same answer to both items.

The buyers on both occasions have informed you that the items were packaged very well so why haven’t I been given a refund.

My account got blocked without any explanation and when I asked for reason they said I have broke their policy. And when I asked what Rule I broke they said we couldn’t provide you that.

This is the worst selling site ever! I sold 2 items that have not been delivered nor have I been paid. Will never use again. I’ve complained to Vinted and no response. First parcel was despatched on 2 June and second parcel on 9 June. I’ve checked the tracking which just states that delivery is taking longer than expected

I posted an item. With tracking. Parcel got ripped in transit and item lost. Vinted then refunded the buyer and left me without my money and without my items. I wrote to them 3 times about this with no response. I expect my money back as I posted my items as I should have WITH TRACKING

I am angered by Vinted's response to my registering items as 'no brand' and then telling me to leave it blank because YOUR listing system WOULD NOT ALLOW me to leave the brand section blank.

Change in Postal Label has resulted in now everyone has to have a printer to post a parcel. If only Vinted could supply a QR code it would be simple and more cost effective. Please bring back the old System

Company will not resolve my issue of parcel undelivered.

I have paid a fee to protect and they just keep

Ignoring my emails and asking for help. What research I have done online this is quite common and they need to be stopped.

The Royal Mail costs on Vinted are incorrect. They need updating to reflect the true costs. Example. You give the seller £2.15 to post a small parcel. The true cost is £3.35 so already the seller loses £1.20 from their sale cost.

Please can Vinted update their Royal Mail postage costs

My parcel was damaged in transit by the delivery company, it was packed in a waterproof parcel. Vinted has refund the buyer and not compensate me as the delivery company won’t recognise it was there fault by damaging my parcel. The hoodie was in great condition and after damaging the parcel they re-package it into a new parcel.
