Sign up with your mobile phone or P=== Off.
I use to be able to place ads and purchases from Gumtree without a hassle, unfortunately those days are gone. I do not and never have had a mobile phone and now unfortunately they are in the "Sending a code to your mobile" phase, without taking into account anyone who does not have that access. They are full of apologies and platitudes, but at the end of the day its "we don't give a care" thats our policy and too bad if it inconveniences you.

Whatever you do, don't change your phone number or you'll never access your account again. And customer service is poor.
I tried to log into my account. It wanted to send me a security SMS code to my phone. I have since changed phone numbers and they did not offer any other MFA options. I contacted them via their support page. They came back with a list of questions that were impossible to answer. These were their questions:
- When was your account registered?
- What is the name listed on the account profile?
- What is the title of the last ad you posted, and when was it posted?
- What was the name of the last person you messaged via Gumtree Messenger, and which ad was it related to?
- What is the suburb/post code saved to your profile?
I have not posted an ad for a year and a half. Other than name and post code, who in the world would be able to provide that level of detail from memory? I answered as best I could, but after I replied, pure silence from Gumtree. Thus their customer service is really poor.
It drives me nuts these companies that only offer security codes via SMS. with no back up method to access acount. People change their number!! I am sure the I am not the only one that has.

We have taken a look into this and it seems to have been resolved by our support staff, though we do apologise for any inconvenience this has caused.
We'll review our support process and security options to improve our service. Thank you for your feedback.
