Why has my ad been deleted?
If you find that your ad is no longer on the site then it is probably due to one of the following:

• Your ad has been reported to us
When this happens your ad may be temporarily suspended (this depends on a few things) until we look at it. We check reported ads as quickly as we can. As long as we find that it hasn’t broken any posting rules or terms and conditions it should be back up again shortly. Check back after a few hours to see if this is the case.

• Your ad has been removed
Ads either reported to us or identified by our automated tools as inappropriate, that we then find do break our posting rules or terms and conditions will be removed from the site. In most cases we email you to let you know when we have had to remove your ad.

• Your access has been restricted
Posters that regularly break our posting rules/ terms and conditions may find we also have to restrict their future use of the site. Even if your current ad meets our posting rules/ terms and conditions, if you have previously broken these you may be unable to post on Freegive again.

• No duplicate ads (Apply to free ad only)
We only allow 1 ad for a particular category. Please don't post the same ad (even if re-worded!) more than once either in the same category or across multiple categories. If there are a few possible areas for your ad then please choose the most relevant. Any duplicate ads will be removed and if you continue to post duplicates we may decide to restrict your access. If you want your ad to appear back up to the top of the listings then remember that you can simply repost it.

Please do not post the same content ad on this website while your ad is activated or pending.

• Post in the correct category
Please post in the correct category as it helps both posters in reaching the right audience with their ad and helps the users looking for something to find what they want. The category specific guidelines below indicate which ads we do and don’t accept in each category.
