Major Highlights of the Week

Account Suspensions
Users are experiencing sudden account suspensions without clear explanations, leading to frustration and loss of access. This issue undermines user trust and engagement, as many are left without recourse or understanding of the violations.
I created an account, listed one shirt, and my account was suspended without explanation.
Shipping Costs
High shipping costs are a significant deterrent for both buyers and sellers, with many users finding Depop's rates unreasonably high compared to other platforms. This issue is exacerbated by the inability to use alternative shipping methods, impacting overall transaction satisfaction.
Depop's shipping is super expensive, and you can't use your own shipping for smaller items.
Non-Binding Offers
The current system allows buyers to make offers without commitment, leading to frequent non-completion of sales. This lack of binding offers frustrates sellers who accept offers only to have buyers not follow through with the purchase.
I accepted over 20 offers, but not a single buyer completed the purchase.
Customer Support
Users report inadequate customer support, with responses often being automated and unhelpful, leaving issues unresolved. This lack of effective support diminishes user confidence in resolving disputes or technical problems.
Depop support is just an AI regurgitating the same non-helpful information.
App Glitches
Frequent app glitches, such as issues with loading, listing items, and disappearing features, are causing significant user frustration. These technical problems hinder the buying and selling process, leading to a poor user experience.
The app is so slow it's not functional and doesn't work.
Payment Delays
Sellers face delays in receiving payments, with some waiting weeks for funds to be released. This issue affects cash flow and seller satisfaction, making Depop less competitive compared to platforms with faster payout systems.
I've been waiting for more than two weeks and still haven't received my money.
