Hi all,
I'm a new member and have been trying to post an ad for my item for sale many, many times but it didn't worked. After waiting for it to upload, it didn't show anything on the screen not even one of those typical message eg. "failed/succeed" simply nothing. I'm confuse and wondering why. Please help!
Cheers,
beezymum

Where are you trying to post the ad?
http://classifieds.singaporeexpats.com/
The ad will not show up until it is vetted by Admin. This usually takes a couple of hours or half a day. It's only a three step process.
1. Select the type of ad
2. Select the Classification Listing
3. Fill in the Details & upload photos from your PC (be aware of the file size limitations) Then hit the Submit button - after a few moments a message will come up notifying you that the ad was uploaded and is pending approval. Then you will be taken to your ad but it will have a notification on the right side that says "Pending Approval"
Why is my ad always get rejected?

No matter how many times I try, I always receive the email that my ads got rejected? Is it even possible to post ad on the classified section? Or do we have to pay for it? The email did not specifically say what type of error I made. Just general statements:
I'm sorry, but the ad you submitted to Singapore Expats Classifieds, titled
"XXXXX", has been deleted. Some reasons for ad deletions include:
- Repeated Ads (spam) (I did not spam as I do not have any ads posted right now)
- Ads that were in a wrong category (I chose the correct category)
- Ads that were partially uploaded/incomplete (How do you define what is partial what is completed?)
- Extremely poor quality/images (impossible to make out the image itself) (The image ghas no problem?)
- Ads that did not conform to our published site contribution and usage guidelines (This is very ambiguous....)
- Ads which were not paid for after submission. (Do I have to pay?)

It might be ambiguous, but it might have something to do with what you are selling. If you are selling escort services, pretty sure is would be refused.

Yes, some of the ads you need to pay for. Not all are free.
If you have questions you should send an email to [email protected] for clarification.

Have you advertised there before? If so, did you have a run-in with them?

I do not understand what you mean that I have not checked my emails? My email are pushed into my mobile very one hour, so its not possible that I will miss the email. The only email I received are my ads got deleted and the standard reason which I dont understand. I even called the office and the lady said she will investigate and get back to me. But until now, no news.
