Like many others, I have an account that has been permanently blocked.
And therefore a ban on creating a new account (yes, yes, I’ve sent a multitude of emails and messages to Vinted, all without answers or with automatic responses).
I asked myself a question: What if we asked Vinted to completely delete all our data from their servers (as European GDPR laws allow us to do) and then we could create a brand new account again without our old data on their servers?
I think so. I saw on YouTube someone who went through the whole process, with a lawyer and all that jazz, I couldn’t tell you if it took 1 month or 1 year but the conclusion was that he was no longer known on Vinted. So it’s definitely a possibility but I see a lot of people here whose accounts are blocked permanently… then actually not! Vinted will eventually respond, I hope.
Hello, I also have my PRO account permanently blocked for « illicit practice » while I sell natural stones.
I had 2 disputes in 2 weeks because I received 2 empty packages.
I posted an item and immediately after I got the « account blocked » page.
I appealed on Vinted, they replied that it was still no to reopen my account but that I could appeal again.
But I also contacted legal@vinted.fr and CC’d the one that ends with .com
I received a response that my case is under review because I requested all the evidence that led to this decision and the review by a human and not a robot.
I’m just coming back for a small clarification, according to some YouTube videos, apparently the CNIL cannot always succeed in getting data deleted… Many complain about negative feedback from the CNIL!!
And if you’re lucky, apparently according to some people, it takes 6 months for it to be deleted…
Hello,
From a reliable source ( = Vinted’s terms and conditions, which I’ve read several times), account deletion occurs after 6 months.
It seems that Vinted sometimes doesn’t enforce this delay… But that’s another topic.
