Nextdoor is extremely racist, and does nothing to penalize abusive leads. I reported one of our leads who is drunk on her Nextdoor power. She strictly enforces the Nextdoor Guidelines against people who disagree with her, but does not enforce guidelines such as: racial profiling, doxxing, calling people names, posting about inflammatory state or national politics. In fact, she regularly posts about California state politics (anti prop 47) but her posts never get removed. She posted a mixture of private and inaccurate information about a neighbor on the comments of a newspaper article. When I called her out for bullying myself and other neighbors she reported MY POST (which did not call her any names, was respectful and asked her to stop with the ad hominems). Can you guess whose post was removed? Nevermind the multiple posts earlier of her attacking me. When my husband called her out for encouraging doxxing and for her racist posts in private meesages, she attacked him and myself. Nextdoor empowers racist bullies.
I am more scared of my neighbors than strangers. They engage in organized community harrassment. If you are a minority or in any way vulnerable please watch out. My neighbors have used these apps to harrass and mob those who they want to drive out of their neighborhood
Censorship, data mining and don't care about their mission. They say no local businesses can sell or advertise yet they allow big box stores with 15k a month invested on their feed. Question a policy and they removed you. They also don't keep info private and spam you.
I have a mice issue and contacted Atlanta Outsourced Pest Control. I spoke with Steven and he came by that same evening at 6:30 which is not usual most company's won't come out after business hours.
He was professional, knowledgeable and put my mind at ease. He went above and beyond and came back the next afternoon to monitor the situation. I contacted him today (Sunday) after a few more "catches" and he was responsive.
I recommend Atlanta Outsourced Pest Control for any issues you have with insects and rodents.
The nextdoor app needs to be monitored for content. Although, they do give you a false sense of security by listing "Leads" that apparently are responsible for monitoring the content, it seems to be only a smoke screen. They do nothing to stop cyber bullying and when I complained, I was simply ignored. The promote people calling others a "Piece of $#*!" and ignore my request for asking people to be more kind. I was called a horrible names because I politely asked for people to display kindness and stop the bullying. Go figure...
Impossible to enter a phone number for a review because it doesn't like them. They will send a postcard for verification what antiquated app crappe is this. But they will accept my credit card. This is b. S.
Completely controlled by snooty, conservative brats. I'm glad to be rid of it. My posts were deleted despite the fact that I never threatened, used profanity or anything else. Now I find that I can't log in. I requested to be added to the board over a month ago and was summarily ignored. STEER CLEAR. I wish I could go back to the days when I was blissfully unaware of how atrocious some of my neighbors really are.
Terrible. Plenty of fake posts and people who actually get all riled up easily over made up stuff that I guess is meant to be jokes... if you point something out, or disagree youre just banned. If you are a real person this isnt for you. Terrible set up.
Nextdoor is completely biased toward anyone opposing Mega housing and they work closely with builders and developers, they intentionally remove de-activate the accounts with lame excuses. Completely unprofessional. You are better off using Whatsapp or Google groups.
Last 4th of July I posted a patriotic, pro police, pro fire fighter thread to thank our local hero's. It triggered some anti American leftists and the moderator, who was also a left wing lunatic closed my account. This company is made up of ex Google socialists out of San Francisco California. I think you are getting the picture. If you love America and patriots as I do., you may want to stay clear of Nextdoor.
Cancel. Cancel. Cancel... A big waste of time! Deleted a post of mine without any response as to why. A website such as this should not even call it a business they are only looking out for their personal interests only! Do not subscribe..."Nextdoor" is a waste of your time!
A TOTAL WASTE OF CASH & EMPTY PROMISES---> Don't give signing up w/Nextdoor another though-it does not work! A 72% price increase (without notice) in 2019 AND you are unable post any of your listings.
Do yourself a favor and don't even think about advertising with this company. They increased one of my zipcodes advertising rate from $30 to $336 per month without my approval. Plus, the open house posts NEVER worked.
I wrote a post making neighbors aware of two Hispanic teens repeatedly walking through the neighborhood. Then two people complained of it being vague. I explained why I put it out. Possible casing neighborhood. Never seen those boys. Ever.
Well post was removed because they said my post was vague. I repo fed to email and then they deactivated my account. After I responded. I explained again maybe they should have read the post and the neighbors who appreciated my post and encouraged me to keep making people aware. Some thanked me also.
I feel that that Nextdoor app employee didn't like that I responded to the email they sent in disagreement. To me that's unprofessional. That employee turned it into a personal issue. And use THIER position to take revenge.
If they do not like your opinion they block your access, limit your first amendment rights. Extremely abusive app that silences people, and silences them during critical emergencies. We must stop using this App, it's controlled by tyrants.
No one will unsubscribe from your end and the links don't work for the never-ending emails I get from you. I just want to be done with this.
I deleted today bc one of the "leads" as she calls herself went off on a nice old lady that had commented about how well these people watched after her dog and recommend them. The lead started in on her being rude and Condescending thing she was not allowed to advertise for a business even though she wasn't and that she needed to check her guidelines that she was sick of people doing that. I read the guidelines and saw where you are not to be rude to anyone for their personal beliefs and leave politics off. This same lead was attacking everyone during the midterm elections saying if they didn't vote for beto they were dumbasses and racist. Anyway I thanked the lady for her Recommendation because we were looking for a dog watcher. The lead Named Melody pelof in Amarillo tx, private message me getting rude and smug asking if I needed help reading guidelines. Basically trying to bully anyone and thin through them if it wasn't in line with their agenda. Told em if they wanted to run it like Facebook they can shove it!
There are multiple reasons to stay away:
1) not really a neighborhood site. You get news about lost dogs from 30 or so miles away.
2) Lots of random posts about events with no info. Ex: "yardsale this weekend in the neighborhood. But since it covers a huge area, you have no idea where
3) Politics. A neighbor started posting these longwinded stories that were essentially political copy-pastas ending with numbers to donate and join the resistance. I reported it as spam and was immediately attacked by the "neighborhood lead". It seems they have a deal with the local DNC. It escalated until threats were made and I quit the site. Now I know how creepy my neighbors are, and they know where I live.
The people in my neighborhood use this app as a social media platform. When you share useful information to keep the community safe the berate you. Then they cancel your account when you are the one being attacked. I would give this app ZERO starts but its not available.
Did you ever see Mrs. Cravitts on the old Bewitched television show? Thats what you get on neighborhood.com. A bunch of busy bodies minding everybody elses business but their own.And the "leads" who are able to delete anyones comments they dont agree with are out of control. Fake News on steroids.
Answer: The negative reviews are honest reactions to being duped into sharing too much personal information (that Nextdoor now owns and will NEVER delete and will continue to sell to advertisers until your dying day) to join a site that seems friendly on the surface, but which does NOTHING to protect users. I was bullied by a convicted murderer, who is a Lead in my neighborhood--and I was banned from the site for complaining. Leads are nothing more than early adopters of the site who have been assigned power over other users so that Nextdoor does not have to police it's own site. In short: No. The negative reviews are not wrong. Heed them! I wish I had known before it was too late!
Answer: Forget about nextdoor and leads. Get a life, a real one. Don't waste your time with toxic online communities that tend to get the worst out of people. My advise is run away while you still have some dignity left.
Answer: Kay is right. That is their policy. However, don't expect them to hold to it. We have leads unfairly removing only some people's comments and Nextdoor does nothing about it. Best bet, dump nextdoor.
Answer: Neighborhood. Rocks is in development. Another 6 months.
Answer: Truth is like oil and water. As long as the scam artist have enough venture capital (other people's money) they will continue to shake the bottle leaving it a murky view obscuring the truth. Run out of cash, they'll be exposed for the incompetent boobs they are and the top dogs will clear out their bank accounts and move on to the next scam. One look at their "leading edge tech" pulled right out of the 1980's is proof enough they will die in the tar pits just like the fellow dinosaurs. Want a state of the art app?

Answer: Dallas, SiteJabber rates it at 16%. It would surely rate lower if there weren't so many fake positive reviews. Folks review Nextdoor either 1 or 5. The fives read like ads about Nextdoor's features and potential. The ones are written by real people and give accounts of how awful their experiences were.
Answer: Several other reviewers on this site have had the same thing happen to them. We have been fully banned from nextdoor (beyond just "suspension"), but they keep our profiles, and sometimes our names still appear in the neighbor registry. They refuse to remove us fully, I suppose, in an attempt to misrepresent our endorsement and participation there. It's clearly unethical, but their TOS states that they can do this, as any nd apologist will point out.
Answer: Here's a tidy answer from corporate... Hi Colleen, Thanks for getting back to me. Our Community Guidelines prohibit posting about Lead activity on the main newsfeed. If your Leads are inactivate and youre concerned about moderation in your neighborhood, you should reach out directly to Nextdoor Support. If you have any specific concerns I can help you with at this time, please let me know. Best, Amanda Nextdoor However, the minute you alert corporate to issues with leads in your community you'll find your account terminated. They are very protective of the information surrounding who really is controlling the activities on the boards. Most people in my community are under the misguided impression that corporate is in control. They don't even consider it is their neighbor who sits in judgement.
Answer: Nextdoor wants your full legal name, house number and address and your email address that they link all together. As an added bonus... They have a little map that you can click on. That way if, OMG, you offend someone the little map leads them straight to your house. Run, do not walk, away from this site. No good comes from Nextdoor.
Answer: Your name and address will be known to everyone who uses the NextDoor application and website. I don't suggest using it. I recently discovered that low income apartments in ghetto areas might be able to use the application to do crime. Car theft, asaaults, kidnapping and just about everything else under the sun.
When neighbors start talking, good things happen.
