Below is some important info on how to report an ad to us for review:
Gumtree is a community site. We rely on your feedback to keep the site friendly and safe – and we also want to know when you spot a great ad! We like to think of it as you, the Gumtree community, ‘policing’ the site and keeping out the bad guys.
So on each posting there is a button where you can bring an ad to our attention. Please use it. If you don’t report it, we can’t review it.
How do I do this?
When you click on the “Report this posting for review by Gumtree admin“ button, you are asked to choose your reason for reporting it. Your choices are:
• Against Gumtree policy
Use this option if you think the posting is inappropriate or doesn’t comply with Gumtree’s posting policies or terms & conditions.
• Illegal / fraudulent ad
Simple; if you think this ad is illegal, fraudulent, or maybe from a scammer – tell us!
• Duplicate ad
If this posting appears more than once a day in the same category, we want to know.
• Wrong category
This one is self explanatory; if you think this belongs somewhere else on the site, please tell us so we can move it.
• Gumtastic
If you read an ad you think is so funny, original or quirky that you want other Gumtree users to see it, let us know so we can put it in the Gumtastic category!
• Other (please specify):
If you want to tell us about the posting but it doesn’t fit any of the above reasons or you have additional information to share with us about it, please use this option and type your reasons in the blank box.
What we then do
After an ad is reported to us, we review it and then decide if we need to remove, amend, move or promote it to the “Gumtastic” category.
As you can see, your help and feedback is extremely valuable to us. It helps shape Gumtree and keeps the content on the site clean, up-to-date and relevant for everyone.
Thanks for your help
