Well I've managed to place a few ads recently while the banner to verify has been up but it hasn't stopped me advertising. Last night I posted another.
Overnight I got this text, from the VS number that sends me the promos and discounts.
'Your Vivastreet account has been frozen because we are unable to verify your information. Go to: www account vivastreet co uk to avoid suspension.' (Don't go to this link it shows as dangerous)
Now if it was a random number I'd think it was spam. However, my ad from yesterday is still live and being viewed and when I log out and in again there is no problem, nor have they sent me any emails regarding this. When I go to the 'post an ad' page it also comes up with the normal page although I haven't tried to put up an ad.
Vivastreet is this genuine please?
EDIT - the link they provide flags up as dangerous so I guess - NOT genuine. But it did come from their same advertising number? Weird.
