Ratings and reviews

It's not terrible but it's not great either. It functions as intended, but. It does badger you to promote which costs a mint (although its entirely optional) but the biggest problem. It's barren. NO ONE is using it, there's one ad in a hundred mile radius. Not one search result, there is a single advert in the radius that I didn't put there myself. And the audience is similarly scarce. A buying and selling app with no buyers or sellers, you got to increase the user base or it's simply unusable.

Usually good, but the support is slow and still has yet to get back to me. Also, gumtree sell your number to scam callers so I've gotten lots of calls from scammers after posting an ad. Furthermore you can't rate buyers/sellers on the app. Now they are charging to repost adverts. I paid 10.99 for an advert and received zero response avoid.

gumtree itself is well used and I have successfully sold items. but you cannot suspend a sales, only delete it, which is stupid. the amount of times people fail to collect, so you either have constant "is this still available " because people leave items up until they are actually sold, or you remove having to put it back up when a buyer doesn't turn up
