What's going on with vinted?

Hi

Is anyone else having issues with Evri not appearing as an option for their buyers? It's definitely enabled in settings.

And also with royal mail being automatically enabled where you can't do anything about it?

@Raveonette

That is a glitch that has been happening on vinted for years.

Usually, if you sign out, then in again, it goes back to English or restart your device.

Otherwise, uninstall and reinstall the app.

Also, check to see if there are any updates to make sure you have the most up to date version.

Are they in cahoots with royal mail?

I've done loads of buying and selling the last few days and nearly everything has gone through as Evri.

I'm having a different problem though- most of the text has changed to French (it says English in my language settings).

I've had horrendous problems with Evri in the past few days. I've been to 5 different shops to post something and ALL of them have said their machine is out of order. Never had that before.

Has anyone else had trouble in posting Evri items? Might they have turned it off for buyers due to IT issues or something?

Yes, me! It took me four goes to find an Evri scanner that was working! I had success at a local PO.

I'm bloody raging with not being able to turn Royal Mail option off, uploaded loads of stuff tonight & folk have chose Royal Mail option, this is a massive hassle for me.
Don't have a printer so even more annoying.

You don't need a printer. Royal Mail can collect and will bring the label with them. You just have to buy the postage label online (which admittedly is a bit of a hassle compared to the options where Vinted just sends you the label).

Not sure about any issues with Evri but I notice I can't turn off the Royal mail option either. Have messaged them as I don't want to use RM.

Royal Mail will collect from you for free if you can't get to a post office. They will even bring the label

Thanks for the reminder. Do you have to pay in advance as well for the postage ?

I think you can choose "collect from me" with Royal Mail? I've only ever done it when I've had a massively heavy parcel though so I don't know if it costs much extra for small items.

Yes!!! I've done a massive upload tonight and 5 of my items have been purchased with royal mail. I've never had that setting turned on before and now I can't turn it off

Same for me 🤦🏻‍♀️ there is no post office near me and I can’t get to one during the week. Hope nobody chooses that option
