For a long time over a year or two I have had a genuine advertisement on Vivastreet Escorts. It used to be a very good website for an independent like myself with a link to my own website. Recently things have changed for advertisers.
At the beginning of this long weekend. I tried to take a photo off. Nothing more, nothing less. Something I have done many times before. This is what I received:
''The modifications you have made to your advert have been refused and therefore your new advert cannot be published. (it wasn't a new Ad)
Rest assured, the previous version of your advert will remain live on the website.
Please try and modify your advert again, ensuring that the below conditions are met:
(it stayed as I wanted, so...?)
The ad must conform to the rules of the adverts category and more generally to the rules of the site. (It always has, so?)
Your ad description must be complete and accurate.
Prices are entered within the correct fields.
All information required by law - depending on the category chosen - should be included. (Nothing was changed. Confused?)
The price of the item/service being sold must be clear and coherent.
The same ad cannot be posted several times on the site.
The uploaded photos must correspond to the proposed advert offering.
For more information on posting rules, please read our terms of use."
I notice where vivastreet used to put green on a verified photo. That service has also disappeared. Not enough staff?
Today I am being reminded to renew my advertisement, but I have not done so.
I am wondering, as it was a long weekend if other advertisers got that same automatic message if they wanted to make a change to their adverts? I would not like to think because of the long weekend, they were not moderating advertising and saw this as an easy way out? Surely not.
So many changes are being made for advertisers anyway. The question is? Is this section worth using anymore? I don't know until I get feed back. Please.
