| How Do I Report a Reply or Block a User? | |
If another member is being impolite or otherwise inappropriate, you can block them from sending you any further messages. Blocking a user will prevent them from replying to any of your messages or listings. Similarly, you will not be able to reply to their listings or messages. Once blocked, you will be able to unblock them using the same button until the conversation is deleted or expires. If the messages are gone, then the block is permanent.
Blocking a user
On desktop:
| 2 | Click on the conversation with the member you want to block. |
| 3 | Click "Block" under their name. |
On the App:
You can block or unblock a user via chat:
Block:
| 1 | Open the app and tap "Chat". |
| 2 | Find the conversation that you want to block. Swipe left on the conversation to bring up the options. |
| 3 | The symbols to “Block” and “Delete” will appear to the right. Press the prohibition symbol to “Block User.” |
Please note: You can also delete the conversation by pressing the garbage can. Keep in mind if you delete the conversation, you won’t be able to unblock if you change your mind.
Unblock:
| 1 | Open the app and tap "Chat". |
| 2 | Find the conversation you want to unblock. Open up the conversation. |
| 3 | The button to unblock will appear at the bottom of the screen. Press unblock. Please note: you can reverse a block as long as the conversation is still available in your messages. Once the message is deleted, you will not be able to unblock from the app. |
Note: Please avoid inadvertently blocking emails from Kijiji or other users through your email provider, as this will prevent you from receiving any future emails from Kijiji. Instead, blocking should be done exclusively through My Kijiji or via chat. However, if you have previously blocked a user via email, marking Kijiji as a safe sender will not resolve the issue. In this case, please contact us to report that you are not receiving emails from Kijiji or other Kijiji users.
