Resolved: Was not happy that I was expected to pay to have the issue resolved. I disconnected at this point.

The issue turned out to be that my account was used without my knowledge to reformat how pages open. Apparently it was part of a test group.

It was that simple and Pinterest was unhelpful on suggesting this. My husband and I figured it out.

Issues and terrible communication about issues

stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full

When I tried to contact the support team and tell them about my issues, no one could help me. When I tried to speak with a representative, they told me that they don't hand out emails, which is understandable.

However, the computer chatbot could not help me with my problem. I have received multiple emails from them about shutting down my account, even though my account is private and nobody can look at my boards and stuff. Apparently, I can't watch any videos that regard music, cooking, TikTok, etc. I feel like their customer service is terrible, and I would rather use a different app, but this app is what I could use at the time.

I would not recommend downloading it. It is a waste of your time.

Pros:
  • Can communicate with people other than via text
  • Great ideas from community
Cons:
  • Do not manage certain comment sections properly
  • Just overall a toxic support team
  • Threaten to suspend accounts for having private boards about how they feel

Preferred solution: Apology

User's recommendation: Please do not download this app

I just wanted to get my widgets back, my widgets won’t work.

stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full
Pinterest - I just wanted to get my widgets back, my widgets won’t work.

So I have been using Pinterest for years, this is the first time this has happened. I have Pinterest Widgets on my phone, now none of them are working.

It won't even let me pick a board. I have no clue what to do. I have been trying to get the Widgets to work for the past two weeks. I'm starting to hate Pinterest.

I called the company but the AI bit was so confusing. And did not hear a word I said. The AI not kept missing understanding me, so I hung up, I'm honestly so frustrated.

I have even tried deleting the app and reinstalling it. I've also tried deleting other apps.

View full review
Cons:
  • Widgets have bugs
  • Terrible customer service

Preferred solution: I would like to get my widgets fixed. Not just for me but everyone. My phone looks so plain without them. Please work on the widgets!

User's recommendation: DO NOT USE PINTEREST WIDGETS ON A PHONE

Purchase from NucbnClub

stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full

I ordered shoes that were displayed on Pinterest, from NucbnClub Handcrafted Western Boots. It took about a month to receive the item.

Turns out they come from China. When I received the boots, they were made of fake vinyl, not leather; they were cheap boots, nothing like the display. When I wrote to them to request a refund, they offered to refund me only $35. I believe I paid $89.00.

They wrote to me indicating that I could send them back at my cost, which would be very expensive to China; it would take a month to get resolved. I asked them if they would at least refund me half of what I paid; they said only if I return the shoes. This seller should note in the advertisement that they are in China. I would have never purchased from them had I known that.

I would like a full refund. I am concerned about how many sellers on Pinterest are legit.

Please include a picture of the pin that was removed.

stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full

I adore Pinterest! Love it!

I'm on it daily. But sometimes they take down a pin (picture) and then send me an email about it without giving any details. I sent customer service this email: I'd like to request to get a picture of pins that are removed. Whenever I receive a message from Pinterest, it says that you removed a picture, but it does not give any details.

I have no idea what picture you guys are talking about! Please include a picture of the pin so I know what you mean. Just saying 'we don't like it / it goes against ... blah, blah, blah' does zero good.

A picture would let me have an idea about what you guys don't like and why. I don't want to violate anything, but it's hard if I don't know what you guys are talking about. Pinterest used to do that but has not in a while.

Why? Love you guys, thank you!

Pros:
  • Collect inspiration

My account got deactivated

Pinterest - My account got deactivated

I was trying to call Pinterest to understand why my account was deactivated. I couldn't get the help I needed with the chatbot.

There is no phone number to speak of on Pinterest itself so I Googled the phone number for Pinterest. The number I was provided and I have a picture attached, that is for stock brokers nothing to do with Pinterest at all.

So I don't know if Pinterest has a number to call. But my issue was not resolved.

User's recommendation: There should be a phone number provided on Pinterest if there is a customer phone number.

I can’t swipe

stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full

The app Pinterest won't let me swipe. I woke up one day and the app just would not let me swipe, so it was very hard for me to search through my pins.

Resolved: Unexpected Deactivation

Updated by user Jun 12, 2025

Company fixed the issue and I have been provided with other. My account was reopened. Contact by email and explain the situation.

Original review May 27, 2025

I don't understand why my account Clowersfp61@***.com was deactivated. All I do is put pins in my folders.

I don't interact with anybody or repost pins. I don't throw opinions out there. I started my folders seriously on Pinterest 6 years ago when my daughter was killed. I have had an account on every phone since then.

This was the new account. Put it back, PLEASE!

Pros:
  • Awesome idea panels
  • Lots of knowledge panels

  • Deactivated my account for no reason

Preferred solution: Apology

User's recommendation: None. They purge and don't tell you why so you can explain or fix it.

Pinterest let scan companies sell items in the website

Pinterest let scan companies sell items in the website

I have bought a cat tree in February. Now in March, I have complained to the company Global Promotions Factory that I have not received it, and they replied saying that it was delivered and told me to check with neighbors, but they didn't receive it.

Pinterest did not help me at all; they only let me inform that it is a misleading promotion, but the advertisement is still there on my page. I have spent GBP 47.56.

I am furious! Christina
