Reddit Reviews 94

Reddit Ads is the worst service I could ever imagine. I tried to promote my post using paid ads, and they charged me $10 right after I created my first ad campaign. But then, all of my ads got rejected—without any clear explanation of how their platform actually works. I tried editing the title, changing the photo, and updating the link, but nothing worked. I finally gave up, removed all my Visa card details from their website, and closed my ad account immediately. I’m completely done with them.

Komplett fake

Unfair and contradictory moderation

I posted a genuine story appreciating Suwaseriya 1990, Sri Lanka's emergency ambulance service. It received 144 upvotes and 23 comments within a couple of hours. Moderators removed it claiming AI generation. I explained that I only used AI to polish my English — every detail was real and personally witnessed.

They approved my appeal and asked me to edit the post to disclose that AI was used for translation. Although I used AI only to refine my English, I tried to edit as per their instructions, but was surprised to find that they had permanently banned me instead.

Approving an appeal and then banning the person who tried to comply is contradictory and unjust. My only intention was to appreciate a valuable public service and raise awareness among Sri Lankans who are not fully aware of this service. No rules were violated and no criminal offence was committed to warrant a permanent ban. This kind of unaccountable moderation silences genuine voices unfairly.

I tried reddit advertising for my business. I strongly recommend against it. First of all the £10 pounds card active check was never given back. It has been a year now and though I contacted their support and they said it will happen on its own it never did. I am not trying to remove my card from their system but it does not allow me. There is 1p remaining that they don't allow me to pay for and when I pay the allowed remainder the service states that i can not remove the card because there is still an update balance.

The ads also didn't perform though at least this part may differ based on the business.

Wiped without warning: My entire profile was gutted and all posts deleted after sharing a normal knowledge-sharing blog as usual.

The automatic detection system is a nightmare everywhere nowadays. The irony is: Humans now spend half their time proving their humanity to soulless algorithms.

This site is a absolute 💩💩💩
Show you get your account blocked fir no reason if someone disagree with your comments which are not rude. Stay away they do not deserve the aur time

I appreciate Reddit's desire to keep their site spam free, but at the same time they block any legitimate questions to gather information from users that are complaining exactly about the problem you are trying to solve. Reddit's filters and banning practices are obnoxious. I can understand that spamming is obnoxious as well. But solving real problems and gathering real information should not be mindlessly blocked. Reddit is blocking entrepreneurs seeking real improvements and real change. They would rather have people complain endlessly and offer bad advice and solutions. I have a very annoyed feeling about Reddit. Their site is buggy as hell too when they start banning and filtering posts. They don't even tell you why.

I posted a Change.org petition about Capital Bikeshare’s mismanagement by Lyft and shared it in the relevant Washington DC and bikeshare subreddits. Shortly afterward, Reddit began removing any reference to the petition. My account (Botsal) was banned without a clear explanation of which rule I supposedly violated, and the appeal process provided no meaningful information. Even my IP and email addresses were blocked. Based on the timing, it appears that local officials may have complained, and Reddit responded by aggressively suppressing the discussion. Regardless of the cause, the lack of transparency and accountability in their moderation is unacceptable.

Once the reddit was great place to read real time answers and reviews.

Now its filled with spammers who post fake answers and review for money through freelance micro jobs.

Escribiendo una publicación, intentaron forzar a cambiar una parte del texto para permitir que publicaran mi comentario. No lo acepté y no se publicó.
Anteriormente ya modificaron un mensaje (en la traducción del español al inglés, pero luego modificaron el mensaje en español por el más hiriente traducido de la traducción al inglés) para lograr más polarización (a pesar de que yo había elegido mis palabras para no ser tan hiriente.
En definitiva, malas practicas de REDDIT, censura y forzar polarización.

Got too obsessed with it and looking at other people's views and experiences that I had to block both the app and website from my phone.

This company is filled with nothing but complete contradictive A holes! Don't let people get away with breaking rules. But yet, if they don't like you or your accounter, I don't know what they will ban you for they'll just make something up and ban your account. I opened app my account for the very first time. First, the Reddit account I ever had. And they already banned me for some comment that I don't even know what I didn't ask. No one The dm me I didn't reveal no sourcing of where to get drugs or nothing. I didn't hurt no one's feelings, but yet. I see, people sourcing telling people where to get drugs all over the place on the app, but yet they're not banned. And this app is a piece of shit and run by people who are arrogant and contradictive!

Hate it, why keep spamming me?

If I could give this company a zero I would do it someone last night posted on my post in the HeyCash Survey forum and this man whoever he is came on there posted pretty calling me stupid and uneducated and you misspelled words tell8ng me I need to see a mental health provider and I am grtting my account suspended for harassment and I wasn't even harassing anyone he reported me. This app is stupid and if he thinks or Reddit thinks us disabled folks can't file a lawsuit they better think again.

No free speech on here.if you give a reply to someone...even it's polite...you will be banned... If it's not convenient to Reddit...strongly recommend to avoid that site

Hier tummeln sich sehr wirre Gestalten. Mobbing, übelste Hetze wird von Reddit nicht unterbunden. Wie kann so etwas in Deutschland erlaubt sein?

Got perma banned for ban evasion, a rondom mod banned from a sub i Poster something on that sub from my Account and falsly Logen in with the Account from another one using that PC so both got perma banned. Just a joke

customer service does not exist, they just take your money and restrict or ban you for no reason. Very unfair,

I use to enjoy Reddit. It was cool place to hang out, share stories you can even get a loan if u need it. Reddits sub mods are power hunger bullies. Reddit issued a new update that’s allows users to hide part of their profile history if they choose, and immediately mods issued statements threatening Reddit users if they do they will be banned. I got 8 bans from subs I’m not even a member of labeling me a scammer and I’ve never scammed anyone. Just because I used the new feature. Putting someone on a scammers list can have real life consequences. Hey Reddit I’ve submitted the complaints and I demand you do something about these mods bullying users for using a feature that the designers themselves have integrated into the community for users! Address this issue immediately. This is bs and I want removed from the scammers list because I’ve done nothing wrong! R/borrow is responsible for putting me on it I’m not even a member of their sub!

Update: it has become clear that Reddit favors the mods of the their subs. Instead of addressing the fact I was was being harassed and kicked out of subs I don’t even belong to, Reddit seen it was fit to suspend my account for three days.! Suspend me, when I’m not the one who initiated contact the mods of the other subs messaged me and ban me. However, suspend my acct for asking why? Apparently, I’m being stalked, harassed, bullied, called a scammer and they suspend my account for three days, Please, someone make it make sense!!

As with most social media advertising, it is very easy to start a campaign, but very difficult to cancel one. My ad campaign was due to stop on June 11, 2025, but it kept running, and charges kept coming in. There are no channels for support to help with this issue. It feels very much like you are being charged against your will, and there is nothing you can do about it. It feels like fraud. I can't even delete my credit card details.
