Good for you Bonnie!! I'll back you any day of the week. As anticipated, I got an email today scolding me for speaking the truth. They said my comment was deleted because it 'went against community standards' or something like that. Of course they're never specific and say what exactly you've said that violates any standard anywhere at any time. I told them - among other things - that they were a selling platform not gatekeepers of free speech lol ... if they want to shut me up, they'd better be deleting my account altogether. Funny because I still can't update my prices without editing a...
So there was a whole thread regarding us complaining about the new look trade me, but I can't seem to find it so am I to assume that TM is censoring the complaints now? A couple of months on now and nothing seems to have changed. I just spend the last 15 minutes trying to quick relist 3 auctions. Each time it failed yet it relisted one that I was asking it not to. Far out man, this is enough to send a sane person crazy. Why can't we see the seller statistics with these auctions? Apparently NO ONE is looking at my auctions, but if I click on them, then the stats say differently. Why can we n...
I had ping option turned on by mistake and a buyer has paid via ping which came as a shock to me. Why would you use ping when it takes days to get the payment?? Why would you use ping when you have to pay a fee? This has been a learning curve for me and I will make sure that when I list things in the future, that the ping option is NOT selected.
You are really pushing that narrative Callum and it's just not true. I've spoken to Q Card, and while they aren't taking any new customers for Q Card itself, they are far from being obsolete and they have a huge range of merchants, as I've pointed out but you seem to conveniently ignore that point. Seems like you should stop trying to justify TMs bad choices. Backend payment systems indeed. So far, I've spent a few hundred dollars using my Q Card outside of Trade Me, which I ordinarily would have spent on your platform earning you commission and I'm just one little old lady. Go woke, go bro...
I spoke to Q Card too, entirely TM decision. Funny cos I keep coming across merchants that accept Q Card with no hesitation. Easy enough to shop on a member's websites instead anyway. I will only purchase via TM in the future if I absolutely have to.
TO Callum, your responses are arrogant and no one cares about your opinion. "Reticence"?? Q Card is far from dead mate, so think again. And like you Brian, I've been shopping elsewhere with my Q CARD and if I have to pay full price, it's not via Trade Me that's for sure. Plenty of great traders out there and I've discovered Temu!! Go woke go broke Trade Me.
Callum to be fair, it is not JUST Bazz, there are an awful LOT OF US and you're really grasping trying to push Q Card as irrelevant when it is far from it. Warehouse? Yes. Kmart? Yes. BB&B? Yes. Briscoes? Yes. 100%? Yes. Animates? Yes. Air New Zealand? Yes. Walker and Hall? Yes. Smiths City? Yes. Number one Shoes? Yes. Pack n Save? Yes. Noel Leeming? Yes. Mobil? Yes. Nick Scali? Yes. Mitre 10? Yes. Nood? Yes. Michael Hill? Yes. Liquorland? Yes. Life Pharmacy? Yes. Just Jeans? Yes. Furniture Warehouse? Yes. Countdown? Yes. ... the list goes on and on ... We can and will just shop elsewhere ...
I reckon. They didn't have to do that at all. Q Card is still valid and they're not cutting anyone off anytime soon.
Wow I can't believe you've just said that!! Q Card have not notified customers of being 'phased out' nor have other retailers stopped supporting it. At this point in time, Q Card is still viable and until we, the customer, are notified otherwise by Q Card themselves, then it's irresponsible of you to deny its use and to suggest we change to a different card.
So Trade Me, you're telling me this was Q Cards update? Or was it yours? Because if it's yours, then you've just unilaterally inconvenienced 1000s and 1000s of Q Card holders for what? For an upgrade??? This is outrageous and not the least bit bad practice on your part. Sort it out and reinstate the ability to use Q Card!!
