price of boosting advert
Hi, I advertise my boy for stud using your website and regularly boost his advert.
I'm just wanting to know why has the cost of boosting the advert gone ridiculously expensive?
I use to boost the 15 day package every 15 days but because of the price now I won't be doing it as its a silly amount.
I also feel that because of the ridiculous amount it is now alot of people will have the same opinion as me.
shame really.
kind regards, lynette
Desired outcome: I'd appreciate a response please.

Desired outcome: Full immediate refund of deposit of 250 and Pets4Homes to take a closer look at their customer safety and an explanation and apology

Hi just out of curiosity did you ever receive your refund?
Banning my account
I received an email saying that my advert has been stopped and my account banned.
It said I had to edit it and say the puppy has been microchipped which they have on the 10/8/22
I've requested several times what they were going to do with the microchip information weather going to clone it sell it etc what they going to do with my personal information and they won't respond. Will be refunded for the boost that is now cancelled and they refuse to answer that also.
I've asked three times for The script to go to a manager to read it.
It clearly states in the edit section but the microchip ID is not mandatory.
I've sent a photo of the microchip information with the numbers hidden of course for obvious reasons.
Desired outcome: Refund of the time lost off the boost.An answer to what their intentions with my personal information.An apology

No response to breeder's account
Hi, I have been trying to use my pets4homes account for months and still no response to have it up and running again. I have no idea why it has been blocked, as no rules have been broken. It is under [protected]@talktalk.net account and I breed Pomeranians occasionally.
I have already sent an email within the last week and had no response. I complained weeks ago, no response.
Desired outcome: To have the account re-instated

Same! My account has been blocked. Told me to send proof of dogs age which I did and got a response saying I had breached the terms! Can't log on or anything. Still waiting for a refund
Advertising puppies
They take your money firstly, they do not check where that comes from! I paid for 2 advertisements I put one in German spitz the other in Pomeranians, They asked for ID, which I sent my mortgage documents, which prove where I live, I have no driving licence as I do not drive, I have no passport as cannot afford to go abroad. So I sent them the only photo I'd I have, that being my blue badge. it took at least 2 weeks before they excepted my advertisement. By then the puppies had obviously grown, so tried to up date with pictures, They only have me as having one advertisement but paid for two. Then they blocked my account when I updated the pictures and sent lots of reasons why I had broke the rules.. Why when I had put two new pictures up I have no idea.. But having read lots of people that have had the same issues.. Taking money but not getting the advertisement on line. I have this morning called trading standards and because they have not provided a service I am entitled to get a refund. I would say, with this site I do not think it's anything to do with welfare in truth. As there is no answer to the fact they do not care for where the money is coming from. my puppies are fully vaccinated, wormed flea and eye tested, I have had to vastly reduce the price now, which means the poor puppies are still waiting for homes, a pedigree German spitz for four hundred and fifty pounds with all the work and love they have had is nothing, I am keeping one myself, I did this litter as the father is now ten years old and I found he has cancer in one of his eyes which is devastating news, I have just had a dog pass away on Sunday that was ten years old, I live on my own and they are my life.. I have put chip numbers and they had their 2nd vaccination yesterday, but I forgot to take the cards so have to go back on Saturday to get them updated and collect them..
Desired outcome: I want a full refund , I have gone to other sites which have a better idea , and they send a code to your address to put into the account , which makes more sense.
They do not care about the animals that is a fact , As I have heard a few stories , But I do know and have been intouch with people that they take the money for the advertisement. Then most just get angry but do not get their money refunded..But sadly I cannot afford to do this ,As at the moment I am not in work ,as I have osteoarthritis ..I have found d some really good sites now, and have checked the reviews before making a big mistake..Head office in MAYFAIR lol How the other half live ,off taking money under false pretenses..without providing a service, it should be automatic that they write yo you if they are unable to except your advertisement but at the same time making sure they tell you ,they have refunded your money .I am going to push this further if I get no out comev, I am at home at the moment, so have lots of timec..I may even start my own site up for advertisement of dogs ,ac we are lacking in someone caring to do this , perhaps it needs more proof from a veterinary the very people that know your pets ..

On The 20th June my deposit of £162 was taken out of my account, and yet no transaction took place with the seller. On your page it clearly the deposit will not be taken until the transaction is completed
I would appreciate a swift return of my deposit back into my account.
Thankyou

pets 4 homes website
i have not listed anything for sale on my pets 4 homes account this year yet they have blocked it and told me i need to go to my local council for a license. I emailed them to ask what are they talking about i have not listed anything since last year and they said i still need to go to my council and get in writing proof i don't need a licence to sale nothing?
I have asked for a managers contact details to make a complaint and been ignored.
I have friends who used to have accounts and they do not any longer as all have been blocked for no reason pets 4 homes obviously doesn't want to run a good business where they sort out issues they just want to ignore you.
Desired outcome: I would like my account opened as the reason they have stated is ridicules
has not been resolved at all, and had no one ask me anything so a bit annoyed marked as resolved.

pets4homes
iv sold 3 kitten litters through this site, the first time was fine the deposits all came through to our back with no issue however we now have £200 in customer deposits sat in are account that every time we request to be sent to our bank never arrive. i first contacted them back in January ( although contacting them is a bit of a faf in itself ) they stated there had been an error when creating my account and could I send all my details account numbers and also photos of my driver's licence this was all sent over and I was told that I should now be able to get my money, however that was not the case I then contacted them again in march and they said my bank details are not right and my name isn't a real one but all my details where right and the name was the exact one on my bank card. iv then had to contact them again ( now april) gone through the whole 'there was an error setting up your account' crap sending all the details again. he then said he had manually sent the money over to our bank and it would be with me in up to 4 days! I'm still yet to get this money and i would tell all sellers to stay clear of deposits through the site i honestly think its a total scam
iv tried looking for company details so i can get the money back through small claims court but trying to get any real contact info for them is impossible
Desired outcome: full refund of 200

I've tried to advertise my dog and I keep getting blocked for no reason at all
Iv tried too advatice my dog and the keep blocking my add what's the problem with my add I'd like too no
Desired outcome: I'd appreciate a reply

I personally think they have a big problem with their site , as it took them 2 weeks before I sent lots of ID took 2 payments from me , because I put the puppies in two different breeds , why ? Because not everyone knows what a German Spitz is so also put them under Pomeranians..I paid and was excepted for one add lol Then because it had taken them so long I had to put new photos up , and they blocked me lol
I doubt you did anything wrong my argument is how many people have they done this too ?
They take your money and from what I can see , people get angry but do not get their money back ..Thinking of getting my own site up , I do not think it's about firstly taking money .Checks first I think best people to get the best idea of welfare would be the owns vets.. makes sense to me ..
They care about money firstly not the animals, as if it were me I would not want not want money firstly, that sends alarm bells up to me.. xx
Puppy
I recently purchased a kennel club registered puppy from pets4homes I have since found out that she was mis advertised.
I have tried to negotiate with the price but to no avail.
I have offered to receive a full refund and purchase her back as non kennel club registered.
Could you please advise.
Kind regards

Purchasing a puppy- Golden retriever
I purchased a puppy from your website. From a breeder in Oldham called Haley. I paid her 50 pound for the micro chip to be registered and changed to my name however I have checked and it seems to be unregistered and therefore not registered to my name. I have messaged the woman numerous times she’s read and not replied. If there’s anything you can do will be much appreciated.
Thank you
Chloe Matthew
Desired outcome: Micro chip becomes registered to my name or refunded 50 pound for me to complete this myself

Misleading emails
I had enquird about a puppy (10 month). I had placed a deposit and sent a few messages back and forth with the current owner.
As I was waiting on the owner to reply to having a time to meet up. I received an email from yourselves confirming "congratulation, you are getting a puppy"
The owner then advised me that she had decided to go with another family.
I believe in receiving said email that the owner was happy to move forward with me.
This was very mislead and let to great hurt and disappointment when I found out I intact was not.

Deposit
I am unable to withdraw my deposit from the website. It appears to be sitting in my Pets4home account I have spoken to the buyer who has informed me that £59 was with drawn from his account on the 11th of December 2021. I have contacted pets4home numerous times without any reply.
I understand the kitchen is a Christmas present for a child, this has cause stress and harm to the buyer and his family he was charged a £9 fee to use the deposit service.
Desired outcome: Deposit to reach my account and apology for the buyer
