What is wrong with Flippa?

Hello WarriorForum members,

I have been a passive reader in this great community for a long time, i am writing my first post and thread here to express my bad experience with Flippa. Last month I bought some WSO related to flipping, I started learning and implementing. I now have 4 sites which I had the intention to flipp. So a couple of days ago I opened an account at Flippa, verified my account by phone, by e-mail etc.
Yesterday I opened my e-mail and see a shocking e-mail that my account has been suspended, here is the message from them - "Your account has been banned for guideline violations.
Linked to multiple banned / suspended Flippa accounts.
If you believe a mistake has been made on our part please email us at:"

So I write them back telling them that this is a mistake and asking for explanation, today i received this e-mail :

" Thanks for contacting Flippa.
We won't be reinstating your account, and we believe you know why....

Kind Regards,

Marketplace Integrity Team "

I wrote them back but currently dont have a reply from them, dont know what to expect My account is banned, I dont have access and i dont know what the reason is....
Had read many negative things about Flippa, looks like they are true, my career has ended before it even started..

Just wanted to share my experience,
Thanks

    Wait for their response if you contacted them. I believe they will fix it. It could be in conection with your IP address or something, but just be patient a little while. There were too many cheaters before, so they had to become strict in some ways...
    Hope it will work for you soon.

    Linked to multiple banned / suspended Flippa accounts.
    Last time I heard swindlers and people who created multiple accounts before are doing their best to continue their underground business. I think Flippa has solid evidence on why they think you are associated with other banned members. The reason is very specific and this reason is not given to people who just visited Flippa for the first time and created an account.

    Possible reasons:
    You created accounts before and got banned.
    Someone is sharing with your PC or IP address, created Flippa account and got banned.

    Hi kukata -- Ophelie from Flippa here.

    I just had a look at your account and there are several good reasons for your account suspension, none of which I can mention on this forum. If you have questions about your suspension, you can PM me for detail, but I see our support team has followed up with you already.

    It's not really in Flippa's best interests to ban paying users for no reason, if anything, they need to ban more people who are breaking the rules etc.

    90% of the time there is a genuine reason - coming onto a forum to complain (like this) is just going to make you look stupid when there is an obvious reason for your ban.

    Well, you are the only one who knows. DID you have multiple accounts or not?
    We do not know your flippa history - so how should we be able to give advice?

    Well, Flippa has already responded to you and told you exactly why and in this thread has agreed to clarify via pm.
