    Did you notice anything strange happening before you were restricted? Did Trade Me remove any of your items or ask you to provide further information about them? Have you had to reset passwords or changed anything like your email address or physical address? Have you recently made another Trade Me account? If you definitely haven't been emailed from Trade Me, you will have to contact them directly to see what has happened.

    Hello onbehalf2. Someone else has had the same problem today, so come here for advice.

    Hello jh5 There can be a number of reasons for account restrictions. Trade Me should have emailed you the reason and how to resolve. You have many auctions currently running, so all seems OK from here.

    Hello Howold. Trade Me is often sending surveys. I get them fairly often. Sometimes direct from Trade Me, sometimes via other online survey companies. Just like any other private company I doubt they publish full details of them for the public to see. But they no doubt use them for statistical analysis and will keep a record of the data to back up any claims made.  If you have never received surveys, but would like to, check your settings.

    Yes, it's an unfortunate problem that has been mentioned on here many times. Same issue when you search for a town or city name that is a book title or postcard or something. It's especially annoying when you get sent to Property, because there is no "Search all of Trade Me instead" option from there.  The only solution is to browse to the books category first, then do you search from there.  Still, if you want to add your voice you can use the "Tell us what you think" link at the bottom of any page on Trade Me after you do your search.

    I get a same day Ping payment transfer on both my in-trade and casual Trade Me accounts using different bank accounts. Are any of you "takes a few days" people are willing to prove it? Yes, I had shares in Trade Me. Did very well out of them too. There is talk of it becoming a public company again. Not sure if I will invest again if they do re-list. I'd have to crunch the financials, but would seriously consider it.

    Silly question maybe, but you definitely have checked in settings what you want to do if you only have one item available?

    I had 5 or 6 sales today. Last one 12:53pm Ping transfer was made from Trade Me to my bank account at 2:48pm. Funds landed in my BNZ account at 4:18pm. So less than 2 hours after the request was made.  Screenshots attached.  I have no idea why it doesn't work like that for anyone else. For those who say it takes "days" will you be willing to back that up with some proof?

    Hello oopsee.nz  Sounds like your unsold page has switched over to "Mobile" (new look)  Go to the bottom of the page and select Desktop site to see if that reverts you to the classic view.

    That seems very strange. The only possibility I can think of is that he accidentally added a quantity of 2 or more when he made the listing.  You might want to contact Trade Me directly about this one so they can take a look for you.
