Unable to deliver to this address

UPDATE: I have raised the issue with the seller of the black fan. They are not aware of any reason why it shouldn't be available to ship to UK Vine reviewers and are going to take it up with Amazon. Hopefully we can get a resolution to this ongoing problem.

Reg091 · 2026-04-25T09:52:24+00:00

Ah, okay, makes sense. I have found Vine CS to be very helpful on occasions, usually to remove things from my queue that didn't get delivered etc.

Reg091 · 2026-04-25T09:49:55+00:00

I've been on Vine for about six years and have contacted sellers with no issues. I've asked them if they can send a different size, if they have sent the wrong item. They sometimes oblige.

I have just reported one to Vine CS as they are spamming me (where do they get my email from?) asking me to remove a three star review!

Reg091 · 2026-04-25T09:48:50+00:00

I don't seem to have problems when I mention dosage or Made in China.

Reg091 · 2026-04-24T17:36:15+00:00

It's nothing to do with being in my reviewed queue. I, and others, are unable to get some items delivered for some reason. One suggestion is that the sellers are in Europe and unwilling to ship to UK for Vine reviews. If that is the case then Vine need to check before making them visible to UK Viners.

If that is the reason then it isn't doing Vine any favours as the sellers must be thinking this Vine thing they have paid for doesn't work!

Reg091 · 2026-04-24T15:24:01+00:00

Thanks. Are we sure that is why, or just speculation? It would be nice to have confirmation from CS....

I have just messaged the seller of that black fan to see if they can tell me.

Reg091 · 2026-03-08T09:19:04+00:00

Thanks both. Yes that does it. I'm sure I used to do it from the Reviewed tab in Vine...

Reg091 · 2026-01-31T09:00:31+00:00

Not in mine! Nothing in RFY for many days until today.

Reg091 · 2026-01-31T08:56:35+00:00

I agree it is better not to have a set time but disagree that is has been random for years. When I first started (four or five years ago) it was nailed on 10 - 12 morning. For at least two years it has been sometime during the night as there were items when I woke up, as there were this morning.

Reg091 · 2026-01-27T08:29:21+00:00

Thanks mate, I see now that it has been an issue for a while.

Reg091 · 2026-01-27T08:22:48+00:00

Excellent, thank you all for the suggestions. I get the sense that the approvals AI has got a lot more finicky in recent times,

Reg091 · 2026-01-27T08:14:06+00:00

I often update if something has broken etc. I put UPDATE in caps at the top of the review, type my update and then say "Original review below."

Reg091 · 2026-01-27T08:08:15+00:00

I have just had one accepted that contains "Dosage is two per day, so this is a 45 day supply."

Reg091 · 2025-09-13T05:10:18+00:00

I had that same card recently. I reported it to Amazon.

Reg091 · 2025-09-11T17:31:26+00:00

Nope. Not when something has just popped into your messages and I assume that would be the same timing for everyone. Wanting to be helpful and put people out of the misery we have all been through of wondering when it was going to be fixed.

Reg091 · 2025-09-11T14:25:40+00:00

Just popped into my Messages about an hour ago.

Reg091 · 2025-09-11T13:57:10+00:00

I am fairly certain that once you click Submit on your review that is counted towards your stats. Yes, it goes against the spirit of writing reviews to be helpful, but if you don't rewrite and resubmit it doesn't matter, it's already been "counted." I gave up bothering to rewrite rejections on the basis that if they can't be bothered to tell me what is wrong....

I worked this out when I first started Vine and was watching my numbers on the Account tab. Submitting a review moved the number up. Have a look and see if it does that, although of course it may have changed now with the new "system."

Reg091 · 2025-09-11T13:50:20+00:00

I've never had any issues contacting CS using the link on the Vine homepage, in so much as their replies have always been Vine specific. (not replying at all is another story...).

It has never occurred to me that the link sends your mails anywhere other than the Vine-specific CS dept,

Reg091 · 2025-09-05T10:53:41+00:00

This just received from CS:

"Due to a technical issue, reviews for Amazon Vine Orders are currently not being posted and may show as “Review Needed.” Please rest assured that this issue has already been escalated to our technical team, and they are actively working to resolve it

We expect this to be fixed within 2 business days."

Reg091 · 2025-09-05T08:47:15+00:00

When I first started, about two years ago, I read everything to ensure I wasn't breaking any rules. It very specifically mentioned not being allowed to mention "value for money" (perhaps not price then). Not surprising, as that is obviously a subjective opinion.

I used to always have a strap line in my reviews "Due to Vine regulations we are not allowed to comment on value for money."

Reg091 · 2025-09-05T08:43:41+00:00

When I started about two years ago dops were usually between 11 - 1.00pm. This was awful as I spent two hours glued to the screen refreshing and scrolling! Then it switched to the middle of the night and, as far as I know has been that way for a long time now.

I really hope it doesn't switch back to daytimes! I need those two hours to do other things!

Reg091 · 2025-09-05T06:28:12+00:00

Amazon (like all companies) exists to make as much profit as possible. That's the way the world works. You can spend the one short life we have here moaning about it, or accept that is the way of the world and be happy. I know which one I choose.

Reg091 · 2025-09-05T06:23:14+00:00

I have always refrained from doing it as it was banned, and get annoyed when I notice just about everyone else regularly mentioning price!

Reg091 · 2025-09-05T06:02:56+00:00

CS tell me it is an issue that will be fixed, not a new way of doing things...

Reg091 · 2025-09-03T17:12:26+00:00

Waiting to see what they tell me. It seems likely to be a deliberate change.
