Freecycle Bewertungen 

In the past this website was helpful but maybe it’s the sign of the times. I never got approved for something I posted over a month ago! How busy are they? Never again. Trash. That is not nice to keep people waiting.

Just to back up what others say really, awful interface, people say you can have arrange then pull out, tiny tiny thing moderators dont like they bin your whole post never tell you exactly what they dont like, I used a while ago and left as of all this, I see new interface thought try again, but same moderators up own behind, so gave up, as other guy said easier to skip it, sad but true, I did 2 runs to tip, so much easier bish bash 1 hour all gone, freecycle, and freegle waste of time now, dont waste your time

I was trying to delete messages in my Messages folder. I could not find a way. Can someone help me please?

Great principle but the site is very difficult to navigate.

Tried to post items on Freecycle and both times the moderator found some minor issue with them that didn't suit their rules. What I find annoying is that then the whole post is deleted instead of being left in draft so you can make the necessary edits. Have been using Freegle instead - much pleasanter user experience and had loads of people get in touch for my items. Won't bother with Freecyle any more.

To advertise an item or items, receive no reply even you may have messaged as soon as item was uploaded. Then for the items to be marked as taken seems suspect. Sounds more like a circle of individuals who collectively put their own items on, knowing they will remove them, whilst taking items from genuine people. Meds investigating, anyway Keep free cycle ciao

It used to be good. There are a lot of immoral, dishonest, incorrect villains advertising on it these days. Too bad for this nice service.

An example is my case yesterday:
I discussed with the advertiser that I going to him and pick-up a computer monitor. The advertiser has confirmed and provided all his data (exactly address, telephone number). Just before I went to him, I received a message from him that he had given it to someone else. He promises something and absolutely doesn’t keep his word. He is lying.

When I promise someone something, I always keep my word.

I'm giving up on Freecycle! Posting on Gumtree Freebies is much easier to use. Coping with Freecycle now is a pain, added to the fact that people who showed an interest don't then respond, or those who do fail to collect! Too much bother. Used to be good. I gave lots away and picked up a few items too.

Don’t you just love the way moderators and anonymous comments from Freecycle personnel completely dodge the issues people raise on here?
Overwhelmingly, public opinion thinks very little is good about Freecycle, particularly since the last revamp which has made matters worse, not better.
Whoever is in charge of web design for Freecycle seems to have sought new paths in the art of web design........... and has become hopelessly lost.

Why has freecycle changed it’s format? It is not possible to put ‘Item taken, thank you for your interest’ which means you have to reply individually to everyone who applies. It puts me off offering.

So many wind up merchants. They say they'll come, then don't, so you go to another one, and they don't come either. What a waste of time

NOT USED FREECYCLE FOR A WHILE AND THEN I COULD'NT FIND IT~FREEGLE WAS AVAILBLE AND I HAVE USED IT~SEEMS AS GOOD ,VERY SIMILAR ~AS LONG AS THERE ARE GOOD RECYCLING SITES?THERE ARE EGOS AND PAINS IN EVERY GROUP THESE DAYS~SO LONG AS WE CAN KEEP RE-CYCLING?

Recently started to use Freecycle again and what a disaster the new site is! You have to log on to see messages even if you have ticked to receive them via email. Then getting to them is a run around the block. Very confusing and disappointing. But the most disturbing thing is that there is nobody on the site anymore! I used to post things and get over ten replies within minutes. Now hardly anyone for fabulous items such as PS4 TurtleBeach headset! And then the option to donate cash to Freecycle! What the hell? Will have to take things to the tip from now on. Such a shame. Whoever is behind this change should hang their heads in shame.

Awful new interface. Only get a few characters from the title displayed in the list so can't tell what it is. It only gives a few items in the list before you have to refresh to get more, then refresh again and again. Search results aren't returned in chronological order.
The new interface is frustrating. Why change something that was working well, this is just update for update's sake. Take a lead from the ethos of the group. It doesn't have to be new to be good and usable. I've given up and just stick to trashnothing now.

Now I can't change my e-mail frequency settings. Get unknown error. Very near to deleting my account, but it probably won't let me do that either. Grrrr.

I haven't used Freecycle for a few years, when it's used to be good. I've been waiting over 2 days for an offer post to be approved and over a day for a moderator to respond to me. I'm doubting that my post will be approved. I don't think I'll be using Freecycle again, which is a shame because it used to be a great marketplace.

I have been having problems posting for a good while now!! Before it was a great site post things and they were snapped up immediately but since it changed I have had to change my password twice because it doesn't recognise me. And my posts sit waitng for approval for days and hey ho!.... they are never approved!! I have tried constantly to contact a moderator to no avail. People are losing out on good quality items because of this sites incompetence...

Wanted to give things away quickly - but posts fail when uploading images and then end up in 'awaiting moderator'. Tried to list a few things over past couple of weeks and wasted so much time. Finally gave up.

Just to echo most other comments, Why? The old layout was simple and fine. This new update does not work on my tablet, I find it hard to read, especially the e-mail updates. It really is truly awful, and I cannot understand what possessed anyone to change it.
Please at least give us the opportunity to revert to the old layout.

Freecycle was my go to place to find things an the new website has ruined it.If you are looking its very hard to find things with apparently only 6 or so hours of posts accessible. On a mobile phone its virtually unusable. so then people dont go looking so and people dont post items to offer.

Despite so many reviews saying this , there is no change. at least put back the option of using the old site!
