This has been a very negative experience for me on Flippa. Especially with their team that checks accounts for policy violations. Otherwise, everything is ok, system, commissions, I had no problems until the moment when they banned my account for a trivial reason. I invested a lot in those businesses we have, almost 10 businesses for sale, Businesses in which I invested over 10,000 dollars, in developers, ads, Facebook ads, Google ads, to promote my flippa businesses. When I woke up one morning and everything was closed, all the work, the money and everything was lost for a reason, I don't even know how: for the email address.

Yes, they only support some information that they cannot prove, who doesn't even verify the information I provide. I had an account where I sold websites and received positive reviews. However, I encountered an issue when I provided a client with an email address for sending me a domain on Namecheap. It turned out that the address was associated with another user who had been banned from their system. I explained to them that I had purchased 10 sites from that user, and they had provided me with everything, including the Namecheap account, email address with analytics accounts, and other necessary information to avoid transferring all the data.

Despite my explanations and referencing Flippa support showed no interest. He insisted on keeping my account banned, even though I adhered to all their rules. I conducted transactions exclusively on Flippa, paid all invoices, directed clients to use Flippa for transactions, maintained positive reviews, and provided support. However, flippa support refused to consider reactivating my account, expressing disbelief in the situation. I find it disheartening to be denied the right to reply, with no effort made to verify the information before banning an account. This has been a very negative experience for me on Flippa.

Otherwise, I have nothing to say, safe transactions, you find clients to sell the business, transaction commissions are ok, you can actually make money. But I don't understand this rule of banning accounts for small things, for accounts that say they are linked. But I didn't even have multiple accounts, I had the misfortune of buying some sites from one whose account was banned. And you will understand how I got banned, as I stated above, I sent the email address from the namcheap account to a client to send me a domain back, on the namcheap account that I bought together with the sites.:

PS: I asked the user who gave me the namcheap account, the email address (for which my account was also banned), together with the sites why it was banned?
He replied that he was banned because he said on his twitter account that flippa has very high commissions. And made other recommendations. These are the reasons. Few reasons to ban an account, plus mine which was not at fault. He just gave me the namecheap account, which had the email address attached, with which this user created the flippa account. As I stated above, he gave me everything to avoid the transfer of ten sites and other information. Finally, that's it, I'm tired, how many messages have I sent to the support, to make them understand that it's a mistake. This is.
