Item not delivered but a random picture of weeds sent as proof of delivery by the courier and vinted took that to mean its been delivered. What is buyer protection for? Customer service is non existent and no means to make a formal complaint which they must have to operate in the uk. Reporting to trading standards

I joined vinted , put some clothes on the site and was accused by the company of fraud and illegal activity. They simply blocked my account . if fraud was taking place then as the customer is it not their job to warn me and help me rather than block me. i opened a second account so i could contest this and make the purchases i wanted to make . I brought the items and listed my items and then they blocked me gain. i spent a whole afternoon steaming, ironing and photographing. i even got some items dry cleaned . i cant really take in a company can just make accusations, have no concern for the customer and if they really believe fraud is going on then why am i to blame , surely the victim should not be made to be guilty from fraud attacks if there was such an attack. i have never been treated so badly by a company before and made to feel like a criminal. sad as i liked the site and i have never had this with vestierre of the real real whom i have brought from for many years .

Bought a dress and paid for protection. Seller blocked by vinted for fake goods. Seller placed dress on another account. I sent evidence to Vinted and asked for refund. Vinted stated i had not paid for it. Sent receipt and bank statement. Still waiting. Going to Trading Stamdards. They are appalling. Avoid.

Il est inacceptable que mes clients aient la possibilité de porter les vêtements que je leur vends, alors que les fonds qui me sont dus restent bloqués pendant plus de 48 heures. Cette situation crée un déséquilibre flagrant, où le client peut utiliser vos articles, les salir voire les endommager, et ensuite décider de les renvoyer s’ils ne sont pas satisfaits de leur achat. Cette pratique ne ressemble en rien à un simple troc, mais plutôt à une forme de location déguisée. En tant que vendeur, je m’attends à ce que mes efforts et mes biens soient respectés, et non pas exploités de manière opportuniste par des clients insatisfaits. De plus, je suis profondément préoccupé par le fait que Vinted semble faciliter l’accès à des activités frauduleuses. Cette situation nuit non seulement à ma confiance en votre plateforme, mais elle compromet également l’intégrité du processus de vente en ligne dans son ensemble. En conséquence de ces pratiques injustes et préoccupantes, j’ai pris la décision de mettre fin à ma collaboration avec Vinted une fois que les fonds correspondant à mes cinq dernières ventes auront été versés. Je tiens à souligner que ma boutique compte actuellement une trentaine articles à vendre, comprenant des vêtements de créateurs (authentiques) et des articles jamais portés. J’aurais mieux fait d’écouter ceux qui m’ont dissuader d’utiliser Vinted. -Spencer Il est inacceptable que mes clients aient la possibilité de porter les vêtements que je leur vends, alors que les fonds qui me sont dus restent bloqués pendant plus de 48 heures.

I have been using Vinted for over 2 years and it has been working well. Last year they started imposing "protection fee" on every transaction; yet, I do not find it is protecting the buyers at all. I had a parcel which claimed to have been delivered by Yodel, but the courier only left the parcel outside my front door on a Main Street in Marylebone (when I was not home). Someone must have taken it and Yodel also admitted they were at fault. However, Vinted said the system showed parcel was delivered and funds had been released to seller, so there was NOTHING THEY COULD DO ABOUT IT. It is ridiculous as they are now refusing to re-open the case and give me back the money even though Yodel already said it was their problem. It is a complete potluck with Vinted - at the end my bank helped me out with this but buyers, just remind yourself your do not get any support from Vinted at all.

Absolutely horrible. I got banned for selling “counterfeit” when i wasn’t they are just second hand. So when they asked me to prove that they where I sent the photos and receipts but they still ended up Permanently blocking my account. Horrible will never use again. Wouldn’t even let me get the money I made that was pending.

Oh boy where do I start. I created my account and for a few hours I browsed their catalog favoring things to check out later in the day and finally make a purchase. I suddenly got temporarily restricted. Then, not being able to message any sellers I kept on browsing. Just a few hours later I got permanently banned for no apparent reason since I didn't do anything against their ToS (which I've read). I immediately appealed and even emailed them asking for the reasons, simply stating that I couldn't have possibly acted against their ToS since I was only checking things out and messaging some sellers about the condition of their books (pretty normal to ask for the condition of an item you are about to buy). A few hours later I got a quite stern generic email reply basically saying I shouldn't contact them about the same issue again, and I should wait for the appeal's resolution. Then I received a message inside the vinted website informing me they will stick to the original decision. I was given no reasons, no terms that I violated nothing. I have never gotten banned from a website in my life. I'm always acting according to the rules. And I still have no idea what I did wrong since they never actually let me know. At this point I'm taking my money elsewhere and from what I've read online I'm not the only one. There are so many complains about irresponsible behavior from the "customer support" team and about unreasonable banning but mine takes the cake.I did literally nothing but browse and ask for item details. And all I got was a generic email reply telling me to f off. Not once did I feel like the company cared to even look at the issue. Maybe they've let bots to run the company in order to not hire people.

AVOID Within an hour of downloading the app I'd got 2 spam messages and one scam message that resulted in me having to cancel my credit card. Then I was blocked for counterfeit items even though I posted images of all the proof the item was genuine, including all of the original packaging and codes. I appealed this saying I just want access so I can delete my bank details and my account never to go anywhere near vinted again. I had an automated response that it would be looked at in 5 days. 5 days later I checked the app as I had no notification of any messages. There was a message saying I needed to respond within 24 hours, then another saying because I didn't respond in the time frame it is permanently blocked. The message was asking for photos I'd already put on the listing. My account is blocked, but they are refusing to close it and won't delete my bank details. Because my account is blocked, I can't even message them now. Reading trust pilot reviews, it seems common for them to block accounts for listing genuine items as they have with mine, which is blocked for fraudulent activity. Or when there are issues, both sellers and buyers are losing out, with Vinted seemingly keeping the money. PLEASE don't risk it. For the minimal money to be made, it is not worth it. I now feel like my bank account is going to be unsafe for the next 6 years until they delete my details (if they do).

Bought some items in a bundle from seller. They were not as described and not in ‘very good’ condition. Also one item was missing. Seller agreed to refund but I had to pay taken postage. I also wouldn’t be refunded for initial postage so it would cost me £10 for postage in total. Not worth returning. So basically the seller has got away with scamming me. Vinted were not interested at all. Avoid!

Vinted app doesn’t have protection for buyers. I bought and returned the item which was not fit for purchase. I sent the item back.Seller received his item, Vinted also released my money to the seller instead of sending money back to my bank. I fall-owed all the steps I was required but Vinted made mistake snf now the case is closed. I’m out of pocket and considering taking Vinted to financial ombudsman.

Please be careful when using Vinted. I have just sold a very expensive handbag through their site and put that I would only sell it if it went through their item verification team to protect buyer and me. Sent it off and was told that my item had failed verification, this item is one thousand percent a genuine item. I have dealt in high end bags for many years and abhor fakes, not withstanding I have the original invoice and receipt from where it was purchased. I have been completely blanked by their robots and had one from customer service tell me that they would be keeping my bag and I could appeal the decision within 6 months. This is just theft and there is no appeal button. When things go wrong on Vinted the level of customer service received is so substandard, backward and shoddy my 5 year old grandson could do a far superior job. If they decide your item doesn’t pass there verification please be aware you won’t get your item back and you will be blanked. Don’t do it. I’m £2500 down and will still have to continue to pay the rest off my credit card and not have the bag.

Awful awful experience with buying what turned out to be a fake on Vinted. I purchased a Skims tshirt from a seller and the seller blocked me on the platform after the item was delivered. But I wasn't aware of that. The item arrived and didn't look to be damaged or show any signs of use so I marked it as ok on the Vinted platform. That is where the issue arose because I kid you not; 2 minutes after I marked it as ok - I went to try it on and noticed that the actual tag sewn onto the tshirt said "Skins" but the removable tag said "Skims". I reached out to Vinted immediately to complain that the seller had not only blocked me so I couldn't then return and refund my item but that the item was in fact fake. Vinted told me as I marked the item as ok/delivered there was nothing they could do. Insanity. Under the Consumer protection laws, this is not even legal. If I have purchased a fraudulent/fake item then I am automatically entitled to a refund. I reached out to my bank and they're luckily investigating and escalating it from their end. I however have seen deleted the Vinted app and will never use it again. I'll ensure that I also tell anyone who is willing to listen. This is not the first instance I've heard of Vinted being extremely seller centric but this is just awful. Additionally whilst I was on Vinted, I spent a good chunk of time browsing coming across many many obviously counterfeit items. Vinted are simply not doing enough to get sellers who are selling counterfeit items off their site.

today vinted permanently banned my account. their reason was for uploading something that doesn’t fit into their guidelines. i appealed and stated how EVERYTHING was within their guidelines. THEN, they replied back saying i was blocked for trying to sell sexually explicit acts?? i’ve never heard something more appalling, ridiculous and offensive in my life. They made it so i could not reply to this message, so i emailed vinted legal team. all i got was automated messages, so i replied saying i have legal rights to subject access request and need this mess to be fixed. i have £240 in pending balance and i doubt i will get that now. they have ignored my emails ever since overall, vinted does not care about its sellers, and after asking around on other platforms, it seems this occurrence is becoming increasingly more common with vinted blocking hundreds of sellers for no reasons. avoid at all costs
