CaptC Posted February 21, 2020 Report Share Posted February 21, 2020 A reply from Freeads - note the "safety" issue.I have replied asking how many issues they have had and closed my account. Quite agree re timewasting idiots but you get more on F B! I found it quite productive once you sorted out the idiots. Matt @ Freeads Support Thank you for your enquiry. Due to an update in our advertising rules the "Hunting & Sporting" category has been closed along with all adverts within.

rovercoupe Posted February 22, 2020 Report Share Posted February 22, 2020 Well it's spreading, eBay have cancelled all listings with either coronavirus or wuhan in them. I was doing well selling masks to paranoid folk on there! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Farmboy91 Posted February 22, 2020 Author Report Share Posted February 22, 2020 Just had that same email, replied along the lines of how disgusting I was with their anti field sports policy. Got a few ads I'd like to report before they close my account though...... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
