Selling a home can be a stressful and complicated experience. Figuring out how to price your home, what inspections are necessary, and pricing is hard for those inexperienced.

Copyright
October 11, 2019

Pinterest facilitates a website with stolen photos. If you click on a photo and save it (also on pinterest). Are you being accused of copyright?
It is a site where people exhibit stolen photos from the internet.
Not recommended.

Someone decided to insert ads throughout the idea pictures. Annoying, greedy, and distracting to the viewer developing ideas. On top of this, the movement of the inserted videos of ads makes things even worse.

The arrangement of ads is visually sneaky and insidious in that you have to keep stopping visually, more and more to see if the item is actually related to what your are looking for or an ad.

And... had to go here because I couldn't find a place to leave feedback on the Pinterest website.

Pinterest used to be a delight. I have two accounts on Pinterest for different reasons. When I am working on one account all of my boards appear just as I wish. When I access my other account from the account I'm working on, I see that on every board all kinds of ads that have been inserted (by?) among the pins I have chosen, completely destroying the whole effect. You would never notice this unless you access your account from another Pinterest account, say, a friend's account. Try it.

Literally the most frustrating company I've worked with! You would think they're some shady scam company working from a third world country instead of a huge business. I paid all this money for an ad campaign and then they rejected it. When I asked why, they just kept sending me their guidelines. There is no human you can talk to. The help emails you send are just responded to with boilerplate. I eventually ended up deleting my campaign and resubmitting it, WITH NO CHANGES, and it was approved. Then they charge me extra for the campaign. NO EXPLANATION. Then, after I pause my campaign, they SUSPEND my account. When I asked why, they just sent me a link to their guidelines! I told them I had read their guidelines, I was not in violating of anything, please tell me why I am suspended. Again, all they did was send me link to their guidelines.

ABSOLUTELY AWFUL! STAY AWAY!

Used to be Fun
September 13, 2019

Every updates makes it worse, it used to be so enjoyable, now it is littered with ads, you can't comment, and it constantly makes annoying recommendations. It thoroughly sucks now, don't bother.

Pinterest does a good job of finding and categorizing pictures and actually encourages you to pin the pictures to your Pinterest account.

Hi Everyone... I was curious if i am the only one who's account suddenly have gotten suspended and then deleted... I hadn't been on my Pinterest account as often as i used to.The day before my posting here i tried to login to my account. Then all of a sudden i get an email saying that my account is suspended... I had my Pinterest account for quite a few years. This is the attachment i received in an email: Margo (Pinterest Support)

Aug 29,3:00 AM PDT
Hi there,

We've suspended your account because we noticed spammy activity that goes against our Acceptable Use Policy.

We consider Spam any content that's fraudulent or deceptive. Saving large amounts of unwanted or repetitive Pins, posting unsolicited commercial messages in comments/descriptions, or trying to artificially boost views/Pins/comments or other metrics isn't allowed. Unfortunately, we won't be reactivating your account.

Thanks,

Margo
This is all nothing but lies and then when i was trying to reply back to another representative he agreed with her... I like everyone have saved info that pertains to their interests and hobbies. I hope their dumb actions will make people to leave in droves and the site gets shut down... If i knew that i would be dealing with this i would have never started an account.

I like the old app better, at the top it had different tabs that you could pick, now you don't have those options and the pictures seem to be duplicates, you had more options to look at from old app.

Try it for whatever interests you the most in life, in the world of Things. Cars, artwork. Best feature is quick save of most things you see on the internet so you have instant photofile.
My SOLE complaint, they do send you suggested pins you might like every day, but I often find something there that I DO like. I find it invaluable, and have only some thousand images on my "boards" so far. A really deep-end artist could spend days seeking and finding inspiration. And, no, i do not own stock, am not an employee or agent--just use it and LIKE it.

Unsubscribe fraud
July 16, 2019

IMO & experience all attempts to Unsubscribe from Pinterest are futile. The site acts like and tells you that you are Unsubscribed, but the UNethical email keep coming. Beware joining this company if you don't want stream of UNwanted emails.
