I've been scammed

They were selling seats, did not deliver. I sent the payment; he changed his account. When I asked about sending the payment back, he blocked me, so I cannot get to him.

I replied that this was indeed an authentic Coach purse. Still got suspended from Marketplace.

There technology for reviewing seller items is faulty at best. I have been selling for yrs on fb marketplace and all of the sudden everything i try to post is taken down says against standards.

stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full

Everything i have tried to post on marketplace is rejected against standards counterfeit. Now I have been kicked off marketplace and cant access any of my listing.

The new technology doesn't work. Putting some sellers like myself out of business.

Can't get ahold of any kind of support. I am disgusted ready to start class action suite against then.

Withholding money items were received

stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full

We had 3 tornadoes come through this town in 7 months this year. They took our driveway; we live at the top of 88 acres.

A lot more people were way worse off than us. But it totally messed up every bit of UPS, USPS, FedEx, you name it. Anything that got mailed out package-wise was stuck. 3 tornadoes!

I had several packages that were being investigated, and I have the proof. I have the proof where they charged me a chargeback of $20 and then another chargeback of $25, so that one order cost me almost $100. I have four of these orders... All of them were delivered.

All of them were late. Of course I can't control tornadoes, can you? And they are still right now. Two of these are still under review since March 31st.

They won't listen to me and look at the tracking that I keep sending them, so I'm going to send it to you. Use your front yard.

Facebook Marketplace - I want to have my marketplace appealed - Image 2

My marketplace on my page will not let me open or look at anything on there, and I don't know why it hasn't let me put anything on there since I listed my car. I don't know if someone tried to buy my car because I can't even open the marketplace messages.

I'm very aggravated and haven't been able to use it for a whole year. Please appeal my account.

My listing of a walker with seat and wheels keeps getting rejected while there are lots of the same walker listed on marketplace. My live chat said I could speak to a technician but I have to pay for it.

Im not doing that.

Then I get a text from a technician and he wants $30 to help. What are you trying to pull?

Hello

I wanted to explain how I posted an item on the marketplace that I thought was OK.

And now it is suspended.

Please take a look at my account.

I checked the marketplace and saw these items already listed, so I thought it was OK.

See below.

Let me know how long my account will be blocked if you don’t agree with the picture of the item listed and my listing not being the same.

I thought what I listed was OK.

Thanks.

Resolved: Suspension from Market Place

stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full

I was suspended or banned from the marketplace. The ban or suspension was for posting a weapon.

I didn't post a weapon; I posted a hunting tool. I have seen numerous posts no different than what I have posted. If given a chance, I would have gladly removed the post if it offended somebody; that was not my intention. I was only trying to sell some of the stuff I have.

I was not given a chance to appeal or contact somebody to see if I can fix the issue. I would like to be able to use Facebook Marketplace again.

However, I will not post the hunting tool again. Thank you for your time in reading this and considering my request.
