Pinterest

Hi, I don't understand why you guys created a Shopify app does not work properly or can be configured properly.
I have a few errors in the catalog and instead you just don't include these products, the Pinterest Merchant Status is suddenly set to “not verified”.
This error as an example:
Warning 155
Your additional_image_link values exceed the limit for additional images, so this item will be published without some of your images
Limit entries in the additional_image_link column to 10 or fewer
-----------------------------------------------------------
How the hell am I supposed to change anything here?
I can't access any options anywhere via your weird app and influence this.
This is really terrible.

Simply horrible experience. This app is constantly crashing, my pinterst tag is healthy but i get messages that it's not healthy but not sure where the discrepancy is. I have worked with many different platforms and never encountered such rubbish with other platforms as I have with Pinterest. I reached out to support but have heard horror stories about their support team. I'm about to reach out to a developer to help but this is frustrating.

Slows down site load on product and category pages. Blocks loading. Poorly coded. Removed and my site performance went back up

Starts off promising but ultimately a total waste of time.
Kept claiming I had issues with my store - URL not working (it is)
Then lacking policies/categories - literally on my homepage.
Either have automatic processes or incompetant staff.
3 chances to appeal even though you are appealing against things which aren't wrong in the first place.
Hopeless.

This is not a free app, you have to trade your financial information to use it. I do not appreciate having to supply my credit card information just to use a "free app". You should never require this information when purchases are not being made. This is a gross abuse of privacy and financial information.

Trying to sell candles on Pinterest, got declined. Tried to contact costumer support, they closed my request without even answering it. How's that service ? My products are being sold on Shopify, Meta, Etsy, Google Merchant but Pinterest says no without any clear reason. Can't even have a single answer back.

As an OG pinner (started back in 2010 with millions of views on my personal brand page), I am so frustrated and disappointed with the lack of customer service. It's almost as if they're all back there just laughing and smirking and joking at each help request that comes in. They respond with canned, repeated messages looping you back through the vortex of pretty but unhelpful support pages. Questions unanswered, promises to follow up left broken, yet new emails with shiny objects - it's like a toxic relationship you can't get out of. From trying to reconnect a shopify catalog (that mysteriously, without notice disconnected and a link to nowhere) to trying to get more than just the spinning button in response to affiliate links not saving - it's a general cluster of glitches, wasted time, & disappointment.

Hello,

I hope this message finds you well. I am writing to express our deep concern and dissatisfaction regarding the support services provided by Pinterest. Unfortunately, our experience has been far from satisfactory, and we've encountered similar sentiments expressed by others on the internet, forums, Shopify app reviews, and Pinterest community forums.

We have been operating our officially registered company in the United States for the past two years, managing our e-commerce business professionally. With our dedicated team, we successfully deliver thousands of products to our customers every month. Up until now, Ladyros.com has received only positive feedback and reviews, without any negative comments or criticisms.

In our pursuit of further growth, we decided to utilize Pinterest as a marketing platform. After becoming a member and integrating it seamlessly with our Shopify infrastructure, we started receiving excellent feedback from our customers and gained popularity on Pinterest. However, to our dismay, our approved seller account was suddenly terminated, and all our products were removed from our Pinterest account.

This situation has been distressing for us, and we have been attempting to resolve it by reaching out to your support department for the past month, contacting them three times a week, totaling more than 15 communications. Regrettably, each time we contacted your support, we received automated standard messages. This has left us feeling extremely discouraged and disheartened towards Pinterest.

We thoroughly reviewed our website and policies in collaboration with our expert team, ensuring compliance with Pinterest policies. Despite our efforts, we received the same automated response stating that our account was not approved. As a legitimate U.S. company, we have successfully obtained approval from various social media platforms such as Facebook, Google, and Instagram, but Pinterest has proven to be elusive.

We are eager to resolve these issues and continue working with Pinterest professionally. However, the lack of support and assistance from Pinterest is highly disappointing and does not reflect well on a company of your stature. There are numerous negative comments online about Pinterest's support services, and we sincerely hope you can intervene to rectify this situation.

We are seeking your professional assistance and support in resolving this matter promptly. We appreciate your attention to this urgent matter and thank you in advance for your cooperation. We look forward to re-establishing a positive working relationship with you at the earliest opportunity.

Best regards, Lady Ros

Die Integration bricht ab, eine sehr schlechte Erfahrung.
Die APP schein technisch nicht ausgereift zu sein und wirkt nicht direkt kompatibel mit Shopify.
Wir konnten die Pinterest APP leider nicht nutzen wie wir uns das vorgestellt haben.
Der ganze Prozess sieht nach Zeitverschwendung aus.
Wir hoffen auf technische Verbesserung, da wir gerne Pinterest nutzen würden.

For years, being connected to Pinterest was a great option for my business. Something on the back-end changed in 2023 and now I am stuck in an endless cycle of Pinterest telling me my website isn't meeting their guidelines, me appealing, them discovering that it DOES meet their guidelines and resolving. . . then the next month it starts all over again. Their customer service is cryptic and unhelpful, a total waste of time. I've talked to other folks in my industry who have run into the same issue and gave up long before me. I'll be uninstalling this app to disconnect my website to free myself from this perpetual headache. Pinterest, what happened to you?
