Adverts.ie Arvostelua 

Happy Xmas to the staff who made this site dead and untrustworthy. Happy Xmas to the scamming repair shops and scammers allowed to run rampant. Well done for destroying a once trusted service! Bring back the likes of Tallus and Eddie to clean this mess up.

Everytime when i verify my account on adverts they just block me for no reason.

Now the app won't allow you to delete old notifications. It also doesn't do live notifications and you have to log out of the app and go back in to see new notifications. Worse it's getting.

Been using this site for many yrs and never had any problems. The positive/negative rating system works well, and buyers know who they can trust and vice-versa. There is a solid community of reliable sellers & buyers.

There help desk is awful. Takes 1 day to respond. Then next day to respond again. Terrible

Account has been hacked. I was getting notifications for offers accepted on various items. I haven't used the app in months.
Contacted customer care. But my email for account is not recognised. They have taken over my account and adverts don't seem to be able to do anything

Not fit for purpose, platform is very vulnerable to scammers, seller beware advice is not enough to counter this. No option to delete adds

I've been using Adverts.ie for years and I have to say its great. Never had an issue with the site or the service it offers (free of charge mainly). Keep up the good work Adverts.ie.

Just want to add also its hilarious that people on here are blaming adverts.ie for a small unsavory subsection of people that also use the service.
Cop on!

I had to give 1 star but I want to give 0 stars for this site.
Removed my ad on an ‘asking price issue’ an ad that had been live for months. Removed without any opportunity given to address a minor issue with the ad.
Shocking to be honest.
I had many items grouped together which was an easy and time efficent way to advertise my for sale items rather than making lots of individual for sale items.
Poor customer service by Adverts.ie for someone with all positive feedback going back many years.

I went to buy a watch on adverts recently from a seller who had over 20 positive reviews. I've used adverts before so I felt this was a genuine seller. A price of €400 was agreed and money transfered over for P&P.
Turns out that the account was hacked and it was a fraudulent seller. Adverts only alerted me to this after the transaction which was more then useless. Customers service came back to me about a month later after I contacted them and were just equally as useless.
Adverts isn't what it used to be. Buyer beware but also be aware of how vulnerable adverts seems to be.

Absolutely ridiculous support team.
After years they suspected and blocked my account with no reason.
Would not recommend to no one.

Waste of time paying for ads if you are a private seller. One man in Cork that goes by the name of audiorepairs has a whopping 368 ads for bits of old junk in the tech section. Clearly a shop and business. This man is constantly bumping ads to ensure the computer section is filled with his rubbish. Better to use facebook market place or done deal. He doesn't bump there because he has to pay for the ads.

This website has so much potential, is 10x better than Done Deal Because I get so many more interactions and sales, sadly it is very poorly made and outdated I am a reseller and seller and everything is outdated looks like it has a very low budget could be something bigger. What a shame.

I've used adverts.ie for about four years and sold (and bought) a good many items. No problems, met lots of nice people with similar interests and would recommend to anyone.
The browser is a bit clunky and needs improving, but it's a free service, so can't really moan!

Ok for the basic (free) ads, but they completely mislead you with the premium ads. You pay to get top billing for 7 days so your ad should appear at the start of people’s searches- but the algorithm puts shops and other sellers with more listings ALWAYS ahead - so your ad never effectively goes to the top. It’s probably not even in the top 50 if it’s a popular item like a mobile phone - So this is a scam and is basically stealing your money. Just go for the free option. You get as many ad hits. We’ve done loads of research on it.

I'm pretty new... however so far nothing but good to say re purchases .I feel confident with reviews that seller can be trusted . Great variety of items & very nice people ....so far so very good.

I purchased a phone that arrived with a scratched screen and the wrong charger. Naturally, I left negative feedback for the seller to warn others about my experience. To my surprise, my feedback was removed. Despite providing support with clear evidence, including photos of the damaged screen, my appeal was completely ignored.

As a buyer, I have the right to leave honest feedback based on my experience. Removing it without proper justification is unacceptable and raises serious concerns about the platform's integrity. When I raised this issue, the support agent was not only unhelpful but also rude, suggesting that I should go to court if I was unhappy.

I have been a loyal member since 2012 with over 100 positive feedback ratings. This treatment is a slap in the face to long-time users who rely on honest reviews to make informed decisions. Honest feedback is crucial for maintaining a fair marketplace, and censoring it without cause is a disservice to all users.

I hope this review highlights the need for fair treatment and transparency on this platform. Buyers deserve to have their voices heard and their experiences respected.

The user Gavin.OD001 Has been reported widely by many users for days on end yet he is able to scam freely. One buyer paid through an account in the name of Adam Manex. I will leave it to you to do research on this individual. It is not good.

Have sent numerous emails complaining how there are dealers on the site not listed as "shops" yet they are selling bulk amounts of the same items and sales over 5,000. They won't allow collection which is against adverts recommendations to view items before paying and these sellers insist on payment upfront, they don't list any warranties even after asking the direct question. Looks like these sellers are based in more than one location in Ireland if they are even based in Ireland at all. Adverts is gone to the dogs, no way to contact anyone and no reply to emails etc.
