17th of Jan, 2011 by User915330
Flippa banned my account, because we opposed a racial comment made by one user who was a friend of owner of Flippa.


Flippa promised us to refund the listing fees. So far we have not received anything. You may read more about the incident below.




I was asking the support again and again as they were keeping on closing my support tickets as "RESOLVED" without even answering.


Please go through below.

Flippa is racial organization - they discriminate based on race...

I have had a bad situation with Flippa. They are discriminating users by race.. I am using Flippa since july 17th 2010. And I had 100% positive feedback and +11 trust rating. All of the sudden, I had an user contact me through Skype (I had given my Skype details in my listing). He was asking me to disclose some specific details before sale and I said that I can not do before sale. He asked me for a sale outside Flippa. Since it will violate terms of Flippa, I rejected his request. Immediately he started threatening me saying that he knew someone close to the owner of Flippa and I will be banned from Flippa.. He started posting bad public comments about me (almost 31 comments within 1 hour) and I reported this to Flippa. They did not take action on him and suspended my account stating that he complained that I did not deliver all contents of my listing. In fact, he has not even placed a single bid in any of my listings. Please see my conversation with Flippa Support below and suggest me what should I do? I am thinking of taking this to media and government as it is purely based on racial discrimination. Thank you Re:Account Suspended IPSP India

Thanks for contacting Flippa Customer Support. Your account has been again suspended due to complaints by 2 Flippa users that the contents of listings purchased through you have not been received, or have been received after considerable delay not in their entirety. The 2 users are " UCashCow " and " basicnet ". You have until 5pm AEDST on Friday 7th January 2011 to have these issues resolved, otherwise we will be placing a permanent ban on your account. We will only reactivate your account if we have received email confirmation from the users who have lodged complaints that all issues have been resolved. Please do not send further correspondence explaining your side of the issues - simply resolve the issues, and get back to us. Kind Regards, Flippa Customer Support. Dec-31 2010 08:16 am. User photo

It is ridiculos. UCashCow was never a bidder or buyer in any of my listings. How can you say that he complained about me? In fact, me and user "ces" complained about UCashcow as he was spamming my listing saying that ces asked to do. I strongly condemn the act of Flippa in siding with a person not related to any of my listings. Is this justice? Thanks Dec-31 2010 08:20 am. User photo

Please kindly answer this... How can I resolve issue with UCashcow when he was neither a buyer nor a bidder? At least show me a listing which I sold to UCashcow...
I had lot of respect with Flippa Support, but you are just ignoring me for no reason of mine... Dec-31 2010 08:53 am. User photo

Thanks for contacting Flippa Customer Support. We're confirming information from user " UCashCow " at present. Please proceed to resolve your issues with user " basicnet ". Kind Regards, Flippa Customer Support. Dec-31 2010 09:02 am. User photo
IPSP India * I am sorry...but I am thinking that it is a racial issue than actual issu
You suspended my account last time based on complains from users 'hard2find' and 'ces'. And I proved that hard2find was never a bidder or buyer in any of my listings and 'ces' agreed that I delivered everything and it was his oversight. Now you are saying that you are confirming information from user 'UCashcow'. It will not take more than few minutes to check if he was ever a bidder or buyer in any of my listings. You are asking me to resolve issues with 'basicnet'. I clearly mentioned in the listings and I delivered what is listed. In private message and active discussion, I even offered to issue full refund. What more can I do, if he is not accepting any of my solutions including full refund? Thank you Dec-31 2010 09:07 am. User photo

Please provide me a solution for the above request. UCashcow was never a buyer or bidder and I delivered everything listed in my listing to Basicnet. Please see private messages and you can understand the issue. If you want to ignore me for any other reason (race, country or something like that), please do let me know and I will not come and post again or list anything for sale in Flippa.

We'll provide further information to you, after receiving some more information from user " UCashCow ". Flippa Management is now directly reviewing your account access. Dec-31 2010 09:32 am. User photo

Oh my god. UCashcow was neither a buyer or bidder in any of my listing. And why should you wait for information from him when he was nowhere related to any of the sales? He was claiming in one of his spam comments that he knew someone close to the owner of Flippa. You can see that in my private messages and Deleted Public Comments. Is this a reason for waiting for information from a person who is not related to my listings? Thank you Dec-31 2010 09:37 am. User photo

What should I do then? Please let me know...Why should be my account suspended based on a complaint received from Ucashcow? And why should you wait for information from ucashcow when he was not a buyer or bidder? You can see that yourself that he never bid or buy anything from me...
At least tell me what should I do?

Why should you need information from UCashCow when he is not a buyer in any of my listings? quick responses by email, good communication, all information provided that was asked for. Fine. positive Buyer: basicnet Private Thu, Dec 16 2010 This is what basicnet left in feedback after receiving the listed items and additional items (other than what was listed). It is still avaiable in my feedback profile. How can you accept a complaint after almost 2 months, when the same user left a positive feedback stating that he got all information that was asked for?

You are marking this as SOLVED when the request is not even answered. Is this because I am Indian? Can you please tell me why should you wait for information from Ucashcow, when he did not even place a single bid in any of my listings? Is this because racial difference? Please reply..and give me a solution instead of just marking this as solved, when it is not actually solved.

Is this a right way of answering customer request? Who is "UCashCow" in respect of my listings? Why should you suspend my account when I have had no sales with him? Is this not my basic right to ask, when I am told that I am suspended because someone who have not even placed a bid in any of my listings had complained? If I do not get a resolution, I am sorry that I have to consider this as racial attack on me.. It is my basic right to explain my side to you when I am punished for no reason. Thank you... If the complainant was a buyer or at least a bidder in any one of my auctions...I would have accepted this. But the complainant was never even placed a single bid in any of my listings. How can Flippa say that they have suspended my account due to his complaint? Thank you

Racial?

No & suggestion of such introduces racial aspect, a covert form of racism.

Wrong?

Yes, if your story holds up.

Flippa did me a bad turn because they could get away with it. Australian regulators need to take a closer look at Flippa's business practices.

The company is at risk of being shut down for current and past practices.
