Craigslist Arvostelua 421

Craigslist’s recent changes are confusing and frustrating, potentially driving users away. They need to go back to the old version.

Craigslist blocks post of my train and had no customer service! Corrupt

I rarely sell anything. Cleaning out my house. Over a period of two weeks i posted about 10 ads. 50% were falgged and removed, I read the rules...Zero Clarity.

What a waste of time, this site is not legit, avoid at all costs. The AI or code used to screen ads has nothing to do with logic. Its designed to kick you off the platform for any reason. You cant dispute anything or ask questions.

Worthless. These companies are run by Low IQ worthless individuals.

i have been posting for years in cl searching for a roomate. last time iposted was feb 2024 and got a great roommate .
i tried to post 2 weeks ago same ad like in the past , it was removed 3 times a second after posting with no apparent reason though i follow all tos .
looks like they have a crazy algorithm that removes legitimate ads nilly willy regardless what you say.
i gave up and posted in spare room and found someone in 4 days .
looks like cl has become a fristrating waste of time , avoid !!!!!!

Nothing but scams.

People will flag your post for 0 reason and I dont think its fair your post gets taken down right away.

Craigslist never responds to inquires.

If you need to post anything for any reason, don't bother. Without any rhyme or reason they will ban the most trivial things. No one to reach out to for answers. Posted an ad looking for an artist to help on a project locally, and the posting was removed before it even went live. Posted in the exact zip code that I reside in, verified by email and phone, and had my posting banished for no reason as I wasn't violating any of the TOS. Seeing all the other one star reviews, I see that I'm not alone.

I have had good experiences with Craigslist but learned the hard way that they enable con artists to post ads. I hired a contractor and he ripped me off and I was injured due to his negligence. I have asked Craigslist to investigate and prevent this person from placing ads and I am ignored. Craigslist condones and enables criminal activity and consumers are at risk for injury. There are no safeguards for consumers and bad actors are allowed to use the platform to scam people. Update: the contractor is using a fake license number. Craigslist has been notified but no doubt will continue to let him defraud consumers. I have reported him and look forward to suing him and pressing charges to the fullest extent possible. Craigslist is 100% complicit!

Ran a very detailed auto for sale ad and paid for a month and NOT a single offer! Craigslist is a waste of money; seems no one looks there anymore. I used and sold it for FREE on Market Place and car sold in a matter of weeks!

I discovered if you don't want someone to be successful with the post that all you have to do is flag it and Craigslist will automatically take it down. This loophole is a cause of a lot of corruption. I don't know anybody that wants more corruption does anybody else?

They could start by answering the emails would be nice.

Anyone out of the 10 that I sent. Is your intention to let corrupted people get away with that?
Probably the same people that are going to be bitching soon because it's on their doorstep.

Blessed

I tried ot post an item for sale , It quipmentl to smoke weed from safely It was ok in November of 2024 but now it isn't , and they removed the 2024 posting That is censoring in my opinion They removed it , when I recently tired to report it
I never have sold anything off craigs list but thought I would try
Facebook Market Place is the place ot advertise, not Criags list

This site sucks.it picks and chooses what and who posts.i been red flags for the same thing other people posts.but they don't get flagged.this site is bogus.

My post was posted in wrong area. Charged my card but will not help me. I will file a complaint with the Better Business Bureau

Craigslist absolutely sucks now. It used to be a good site but their bots or employees delete your posts if you post in other cities. I have some extremely unique material that is hard to come by in the US so for the wider audience I post it in other markets and those are constantly getting removed.

There is a reason everyone is going over to Market Place! I get far less than half of the responses I used to get on Craigslist....It's dying a slow death.

Very misleading website business establishments use Craigslist to post Fake reviews for their Businesses and lie Craigslist is very untrustworthy Website as are business establishments that are paid To lie

I have been a Craigslist consumer for many years. Craigslist can be helpful and provide you with information. But now that I am 39 and looking for a job I am facing discrimination. Craigslist posted an ad today for a job in Brooklyn 08/17 in all black and in all capital letters letting me know they despise black people.

It takes one or a handful of bad people to ruin everything for all. This used to be such a fantastic website, I made good friends in it, join activities, applied or posted jobs, etc; it was simple, free, easy and the best part, world wide for those who are world travellers, sometimes i enjoy reading people's rants or the session where creative people would post brilliant thoughts, letters, there was sessions to fulfill any wants and desires, so unique as a website! Now, due to so many restrictions after a psycho stained the website with his evil actions or those who'd go too far on their perversions & scams, it's not the same and it's now dead. Very sad to see such amazing platforms like this perish over time because of some bad weed. Crigslist deserves recognition for how useful it was back in the days.

I have used Craigslist for years to advertise rental properties. Recently, I posted and ad but Craigslist kept removing it, no explanation, and no support to contact. I am not sure why the ad was removed. Maybe other landlords flagged it to reduce competition. I guess Craigslist is dead.

Totally worthless site anymore. Has not been updated for years! I had around 10 items listed, not one response in over a month. They need to shut it down.

Your site used to be good 10-15 years ago. Now everytime you post something, no matter how trivial, it gets rejected. I've tried multiple posts and it can be the simplest most innocent subject, and it gets removed before it even gets posted. I'm moving on after years of using your site.

Craigslist should be investigated by the government. They take your money put your account on hold for no reason. No customer support. You can’t even close your own account. I will be reporting them to my attorney general.
