| Hi, i have recently abused gumtrees terms as i failed to read there policy and have since been restricted from using the site. Has this happened to anybody else and do they eventually let you back on there? |

| Give it some time, send them a nice e-mail in a months time and say you're sorry and you won't do it again. I don't see why they won't let you back after that. Unless you did something REALLY bad... |

ITS CALLED GUMTREE, THE JUNK OF THE INERNET |
Have you ever got anything constructive to ad? How about helping the person with his problem instead of making unfounded allegations? |

Why change the habits of a lifetime 
I cant remember if it 's 'im or not, but theres been one poster posting gumtree imminent demise for 18 months now
just as a matter of interest jon
obviously there are a couple of posts with people on here who have probs with posting ads
how many ads roughly, do gumtree gumtree post per day
cos im guessing the fail rate is pretty low
id be interested to see if im correct or not |

Monty thats a good point. I don't have the exact numbers but will check on A) what these numbers are and B) If we're allowed to publish these publicly.
I can tell you that there are 1000s of ads a day and the support queries are a tiny percentage. |

AS2204 and Tammera just out of curiousity, what did you do to get yourselves banned from the site?
And how do you know that you have been banned? |
