Blocket Reviews 2,735

Such a bullshit, to keep people's money for 5 days and more for price proposals, so every time i do price proposal i need to have spare money so i can feed you. Shame on you!

Very bad 👎 😕 No recommended

The updated version is horrible!!! So many bugs and only a stupid AI to chat with, gets you nowhere. Stupid to screw up a good thing. Sucks!

I made an posting to sell a company twenty days ago, they took it down, and in their answer they say we notified you,
They never did and i lost 750kr because they changed the website, without any notification.
Plus the new website is a total mess, i lost all my history of messages even with other stuff like cars and so.
Database migration takes few minutes and few hours max in case of problems.
They need to change their developers team, they are NOT COMPETANT.

New Blocket causes me frustration and irritation. Sad, it use to be an enjoyable buy and sell service.

Ni må tro att ni är ”too big to fail” men ni är inte goldman sachs. Tillslut kommer en konkurrent att börja plocka marknadsandelar av er om inte detta storhetsvansinne med konstanta fruktansvärda uppdateringar upphör.

Nya blocket ser ut som autoscout24 från temu. Helt oanvändbart

Blocket used to be worth visiting.
Now it´s just a mess.
Last update destroyed the good part, where you could have a watchlist of things you were looking for. Which were easy to deal with.
You could see how many new ads were available since last time you looked.
Now I'm looking elsewhere.

Stop hiring the competitors to do the re-design of your platform (mobile and browser) because they are doing their job too good and ruining your business super fast. Interns would have done a better job that's why this is the only theory I can think of.

I no longer have access to my Blocket account and Blocket's customer service doesn't give a flying f about it. I explained to them five days ago that even though I enter my password correctly, the page demands I enter a security code which will be sent to my e-mail – which NEVER happens, because I NEVER receive the e-mails. Not even why I try and re-send the code. I have followed ALL instructions from Blocket on what measures I should take to make the e-mails reach my inbox or spam folder (added all Blocket e-mail addresses to trusted senders, disabled ad blockers, turned off the wi-fi, uninstalled the app and re-installed it and MANY more measures), but STILL Blocket or Vend's e-mail with a security code for login doesn't reach my e-mail, so I can impossibly log in ever again. I'm losing tens of thousands of Swedish kronas in sales because of it! And they could care less. They're doing their best not to do absolutely anything about it. And at the end of it, they tell me to have a nive day! CLOWNS.

Saknar skydd för köpare och säljare om frsktbolag tappar bort försändelse. Tee av dom på en vecka så thats it no mora platform that say they are free but steal your info and sell it to people outside sweden, as usual usa and israel are the buyer

Unfortunately they decided to discriminate non Swedish users by having BankID as the only way of verifying your account. By this it basically excluded everyone who is not a Swedish citizen.

I tried to contact their service team to find an alternative verification method (e.g. Id card, passport, …) but they did not care and said they are not willing to accept non Swedish citizens as verified users.

Terrible marketplace, not recommended (just check the evaluations here on Trustpilot) !!!!
For my first purchase (two different products and sellers), I bought, paid, and never received the products I purchased.
But the worst part is that I wasted my time with Blocket. If I had purchased through another marketplace, I would have already received the products I wanted.
To make matters worse, Blocket doesn't do anything to address these bad sellers; it only protects them; good buyers are neither protected nor valued.
For example, you as a buyer can't cancel a purchase, but a bad seller can cancel the sale and simply not deliver the product, and nothing will happen.
Blocket may be good for sellers, but it's not recommended for buyers!

I logged in to the Blocket.se website and found a product I wanted to buy, but when I clicked on Send Message an error message was displayed with “Try again or contact support”. I tried Send Message for other sellers with the same result. Support told me to use a different web browser which I did – same problem. I tried using the Blocket app but the problem remained. Have tried using both my iPhone and iPad, same problem. Support has said they are working on it but now it’s over a week. Vend own Blocket and it is Vend’s software that is the problem. Their sellers are on a market place that does not work – this should not be legal!

Without warning they deleted all my posts for nothing?

Blocket was good in the past.
Now it is just trash.
Customer service is trash.
They are not any helpful for buisneses selling stuff.
And selling things are very expensive.

The company blocks everyone not living in Sweden (EU??)

This must be one of the most ridiculously outdated service and app out there.
It's like the early days of the internet.
Here is the "ridiculous" list:
- you can upload only 6 photos, you can't even get more even if you are willing to pay, no such option available.
- the uploading process is slow and if you switch to other task on other app, the progress (or lack of it) is lost
- the errors occur during uploading your pictures
- no basic editing tools are available, can't even crop or rotate the photo, so you better do some editing before
- the category you should place your ad under is a random guess, no suggestions from the app. But if you place it under wrong category, the ad gets rejected with no guidance what you should do better next time
- if you manage to successfully post an ad it will be there for a while ( a month if I remember correctly), then you get notification that time is up and you ad is removed. You can't repost it again, there is no template from the old one. You need to start all over again, so make sure you have old pictures still on your phone. lol.
- if you saved some ads for later by marking them with the heart, removing them one by one will result with error
- the bids, price proposals are not binding so forget you can find any good deal. Even if you pressed "buy now"and pay immediately, the seller can simply reject the transaction later and send the payment back if he gets better price via private message. Ridiculous!
You can't even leave the review if that happens!
- there is no push to secure the transactions via site, so it happens that seller brags about shipping or money arriving so long and tries to get the deal done in other form of payment. If you don't agree to pay differently, he can just abort the transaction. Don't try to bring this issue up to the customer service, you will be proven wrong.
- speaking about customer service... it's almost non existing. No phone number, you can email them and wait several days hoping they will respond, so if you have issue that requires quick action... forget about it!
- search option by the location doesn't include radius, so you can only pick up province, or city. That's such a basic feature, its 2024... come on...
- the site doesn't seem to be moderated, you can easily post ads with stolen property and there is no way for other users to mark suspicious ads immediately for quick revision.

These are the issues just from the top of my head.
Fortunately there are other places to trade in more civilized way.
Blocket is nearly dead. It deserves it, people maintaining it or developing ("under developing") are clearly doing nothing. They are stuck in the early years of internet.
You guys need serious change to be relevant again. Otherwise it's a relict from the past.
PS. Automatic translation is not an option in 2024, it's a standard.

these people are engaged in the fact that they trick people into investing money in supposedly increasing the ratings of various things and receive commissions for this. But they increase the deposit to the point that a person no longer has the means to pay this deposit and thus all their profits burn out and people remain. I lost 1350 euros of my money, but they wanted me to invest another 1250 and then they can return my money, but I no longer believed them

The customer service it completely useless. I have asked some help regarding how to package and send an item, and the answer I got was basically "you have to figure that out on your own". Well...
