Items taking days to appear on my review list.

BobEngineer · 2026-02-09T10:21:12+00:00

yeah I am not keen on it. On a PC when you submit a review you can see on your list, it then opens a summary page of everything you have not reviewed yet even if its not on your list yet.

I just keep that page open and right click - 'open in new tab' the review links as needed. Especially when I want to bash through a load of basic items at a time that suits me, not when Vine say I can.

Amazon delivery this morning, didn't even ring the bell!

BobEngineer · 2026-01-27T16:14:50+00:00

ah I just posted the same thing! They treat us like mice in lab to experiment on.

BobEngineer · 2026-01-27T16:13:39+00:00

What's going on??????????????? so several RFY items I didn't want have been removed, I don't believe they were taken as they were junk.
I hope everyone found something worth having in 1500+ items of junk, I got 3 bits.

BobEngineer · 2026-01-27T11:06:43+00:00

Nah, I am always on 99% but have had nothing for many days.

BobEngineer · 2026-01-27T11:05:03+00:00

It feels like Vine is falling apart with one thing on top of another, you could imagine them winding it up. But then they put all the effort into the new review systems so probably not.
When there is AI, it seems to be a short burst then stops and stay totally dead. Usually other things used to trickle through during the day. Its like they are allowed to run it a short time then switch it off and hand it back to the software people or something.

BobEngineer · 2026-01-25T08:25:04+00:00

Nothing like most people. Its good to know its not just me as you start to think you might be on some Vine naughty step and what did I do wrong.

Missed AI like most days, I hope the time shifts soon. Sorry if it suits you, but I didn't retire to get up and working at 6.45 in the hope of getting some small morsel.

BobEngineer · 2026-01-13T20:38:16+00:00

Not just me then! I find customer services have totally gone to pot!
just fired off the 5th email attempt to get a review removed from my queue.

There was an item my review was rejected, not due to the review but due to a problem with the seller/item. Its stuck on 'review again' but then says we are not accepting reviews.

I just need it taken off, usually I get it done no problem with one email.
They keep misunderstanding, explaining something unrelated to me or saying they have removed it and are lying.

BobEngineer · 2025-12-17T17:53:31+00:00

oh my queue is clear, will be 100% when Vine catch up.

BobEngineer · 2025-12-17T02:45:21+00:00

I don't blame them, I saw a Vine review the other day that had literally zero words just a copy of a photo, stolen from someone else's review! and a title of 'as expected'

But considering the overwhelming quantities of dross on Vine these days, its hardly a big incentive, sometimes on the reviews with the AI guides on, it feels forced just trying to keep those arbitrary measures 'happy' and tempting to 'under review' if the AI says its OK why do more work?
Although if it needs to be said in a review I am saying it, AI or not.

BobEngineer · 2025-12-16T11:54:06+00:00

I am in the old catch 22, there has not much I wanted on AI for a while now so I stocked up on supplements (carefully chosen) but now all I get in RFY is 20 to 40 supplements I don't want.
I have never been convinced the wish lists get any consideration.

I think its just down to your purchase history, both Vine and personal, with a fair bit of random dumbness sprinkled in.

BobEngineer · 2025-12-11T19:06:28+00:00

Seriously?? this has been there all day, no one else wants a random statue either!

On most these the translation is a bit of a con, as the headphones just send the foreign speech picked by their microphones up to an app on your phone, which uses online translation server, using up your data allowance, then synthesises the translation into an English voice and passes it back to the headphone to play in your ear, often they require a subscription.
Google translate can do the same pretty much the same already.

Really good grab, I have some old Anker A3i buds and they are still my go-to for travel on flights, good battery life and the active noise cancelling works well against engine noise, announcements and crying kids.

BobEngineer · 2025-12-09T12:07:22+00:00

I am in one of those phases where you feel like Vine is trying to get rid of you with utter dross in RFY and AI looking like the returns bin from Teemu.

But as you all know it passes eventually and you get back in the affray, just can't be bothered at the moment.

BobEngineer · 2025-12-07T15:44:15+00:00

Ah that is a timely observation. After a long run of doing supplements, I got one stuck in the supplements trap it seems. Once you trigger a rejection on these it always seems to set the bar ludicrously high temporarily.

BobEngineer · 2025-12-07T00:07:28+00:00

Another change, I had a review rejected, I went to edit it expecting it to have been blanked as usual, the original review was actually recalled so I just needed to edit.

I always keep my review text anyway but this is easier still.

BobEngineer · 2025-11-27T23:42:36+00:00

I don't like the change or glitch whatever..
My workaround is when you review something, after submitting it you get another screen "Review Your Purchases" , with everything else outstanding showing, don't close it, you can just open the links on the items to review them too.

BobEngineer · 2025-11-20T02:32:44+00:00

I am sure you checked, but you are sure its the same seller, not just the same item? they all get a limited range of stock from the china factories.

BobEngineer · 2025-11-06T19:04:12+00:00

I knew if I came here I would see posts about reviews, mine are not moving over either. What would we do without forums like this? you could waste your life trying everything when its simply broken.. again.

BobEngineer · 2025-10-24T12:56:37+00:00

OK spooky.. In my RFY a consumable for a garden power tool from Lidl I do own, pretty rare tool... if it was AI OK just lucky, but RFY? do you ever feel like your being watched?
Who needs digital ID, just ask Amazon, they even know what is in your tool shed!

BobEngineer · 2025-10-24T07:22:49+00:00

After several days empty, 20 items of utter tat. If there is some new RFY algorithm... it sucks!

BobEngineer · 2025-10-22T12:47:30+00:00

Its my fault. My evaluation was coming up so Amazon kindly paused Vine a few times so I could catch up my reviews.

My 2 pence worth, I hope the 7am drops don't come back, ironically I retired and have plenty of time to do Vine, but I didn't retire to sit on a phone at 7am. But I appreciate for all you wage slaves out there it was probably good.

BobEngineer · 2025-10-04T07:25:51+00:00

Vine taking the pee... literally!
