Hi Kijiji Support Team,

I recently posted an ad and received an email confirming it was live. However, when I check my account, I have **0 active** and **0 inactive** listings — the ad is nowhere to be found.

Here are my details:

- **Email on my account:** XXXXXXXXXXX
- **Category I posted in:** buy and sell cars
- **Date posted:** Oct 28th 2026
- **Ad title/description:** Selling a 2018 Chevrolet Equinox

I’ve tried to upload the email i received saying the add is live but i keep getting an error that new users can not upload photos.

I’ve checked both my Active and Inactive tabs and the ad is not appearing in either. I only have a desk top so i can’t try to upload it on another device.

Could you please look into why the ad was removed after approval and either restore it or let me know what needs to be corrected?

Thank you,  
Susan

Hello @Susan_Stoffer

Thank you for reaching out to Kijiji Customer Support regarding your deleted listings.

Your vehicle ads are being removed because our system has detected active listings published across multiple accounts. On Kijiji, users are permitted **one free ad** per user account in the Cars & Vehicles category and the Realestate Category. Utilizing multiple accounts to bypass listing limits or post additional adds without paying the applicable category fees is considered fee avoidance and a violation of our platform policies.

To ensure your listings remain active and avoid further account actions, you must choose one of the following compliance options:

### Option 1: Consolidate to a Single Personal Account

Choose **one single account** to handle all of your postings and account activity, and immediately discontinue using all secondary accounts.

- **Stop All Activity on Other Accounts:** This includes posting listings as well as sending messages or replying to ads from secondary accounts.
- **Close Unused Accounts:** We strongly recommend permanently deleting all secondary accounts to prevent accidental posting or system confusion in the future.

### Option 2: Upgrade Secondary Accounts to Professional/Dealer Status

If you require multiple accounts to manage your inventory, you must upgrade all secondary accounts to a **Professional or Dealer** account status.

- Under Professional status, secondary accounts will pay the required listing fee for every vehicle ad published.
- You may operate multiple accounts under this structure as long as you are not publishing duplicate ads for the exact same vehicle across accounts.

Please review our complete policy guidelines for further details:

Please select one of the paths above and update your account setup accordingly. Continuing to post vehicle listings across multiple personal accounts without paying the required fees will result in the suspension of your posting privileges across the platform.

Thank you for your cooperation and understanding in keeping our marketplace fair and compliant. If you have any questions on how to update your accounts, please let us know.
