Here at Gumtree we want to make sure that the site is as “clean”, friendly and usable as possible for everyone. Ads that are reported to us and/or fall outside our postings policies/terms and conditions may be removed from the site. Advertisers that regularly break our posting policies may find their future use of the site restricted. For a list of our terms and conditions please see the following link: http://www.gumtree.com/disclaimer3.htm

In almost all cases we email the advertiser explaining the reasons for deletion. Please check for emails from ‘postings@gumtree.com’ to read any messages from us about this (these emails sometimes get directed to “Trash” or “Junkmail”, so please check these folders).

The “What kind of ads do you accept?” FAQs provide key information on what we can and can’t accept in each of the categories:
http://www.gumtree.com/gumtree_faq.html#top

Some common reasons for deletion are highlighted below.

- Wrong Category
Having postings in the right category is key to ensuring that advertisers are as successful as possible with responses to their post, and to help Gumtree users find exactly what they are looking for.

Some examples of ads that will be deleted due to wrong categorisation include Casual ads posted in the Dating (e.g. Guys seeking Girls etc) sections, and ads by commercial sellers in the For Sale, Community or Accommodation categories (when they should be in Business Services).

To make sure that your ad is posted in the right category, we’d recommend that if you haven’t already, you take a look at the “What kind of ads do you accept?” FAQs for some more specific examples of what is and isn’t allowed by category:
http://www.gumtree.com/gumtree_faq.html


- Multiple duplicate postings
We only allow 1 ad per poster, per relevant category per day. If you are posting more than one ad, all duplicated ads will be removed from the site. If you continue to post multiples we will be forced to restrict your access. This is to protect our users from wasting their time and being able to maximise benefits of the service.

This also includes multiple duplicated ads across more than one Gumtree site, see here for details:
http://www.gumtree.com/gumtree_faq.html#15


- Illegal/ fraudulent ads
Any postings suspected as illegal or fraudulent activity will for obvious reasons be removed.


- Defamatory/ offensive/ abusive
We will remove any ads reported to us as, or suspected of being, defamatory, abusive or offensive.


This system has all the imperfections of a democratic system. If you have read the FAQs, are confident your posting adheres to our guidelines completely and is in the spirit of Gumtree, please feel free to let us know via support@gumtree.com. Please don’t post in this forum about your ad being deleted, as we can’t answer specific questions about your ads here in public.

Bye for now,

The Gumtree Team Laughing

That is also happening to my posting. But I don't receive any email on why my ads are deleted.
